How to pray to God- By Thirugayana Sambandar
சொல்லையாறித் தூய்மை செய்து காமவினை அகற்றி
நல்லவாறே உன்றன் நாமம் நாவில் நவின்று ஏத்த
வல்லவாறே வந்து நல்காய் வலிவலமே யவனே ( திருமுறை 1-50)
ஒல்லையாறி- Controling those thoughts that impact external world and looking inward
உள்ளம் ஒன்றி - with concentrated mind
கள்ளம் ஒழிந்து- Even after practicing such control and concentration, at times, our naughty mind that has been hitherto wavering uncontrollably, would tend to get
attracted towards materialistic pleasures and therefore we have to remove such naughty materialistic attraction
வெய்ய சொல்லையாறி- When we are in the process of above three, we may tend to experience some improvement in the self (both spritual and Materialistic).
however, once again our untrained mind, will tend to compare self with others. Since there has been some conginzable improvements, one may get feeling of
greateness and start finding faults with others and become sarcastic. தூய்மை செய்து- Such behaviour should be carefully avoided.
காமவினை அகற்றி- Removing all attractions towards the materialistic and worldly pleasures
நல்லவாறே உன்றன் நாமம் நாவில் நவின்று ஏத்த வல்லவாறே வந்து நல்காய் வலிவலமே யவனே- guide thus to get a proper way to utter the name and proper way
to pray

In “Bagavatham”- an ancient sacred text about the God and His various manifestation, a poem advises the king that in his kingdom people can be divided in 4 categories: Good people, Bad People, People who look bad but good, People who look good but bad. It further says that the king has to be very cautious about the people who look good but bad. A king can take obvious precautions against the bad but cannot take against those people who look good but bad. It continues: the king should also analyse people who look bad but good-- and adequately take caution that they are not penalized for they have nothing bad in them.
There has been always a grey area between the good and bad. Good and bad are not difficult to identify and are not difficult to understand as they are very obvious. But what we really get fooled at is the deceptiveness. There are ‘Good’ looking like ‘Bad’ and ‘Bad’ looking like ‘Good’. These can be identified only when the mask is removed.To remove the mask and understand the depth is an art which can only gained by experience, and perfect observation capabilities.
This principle applies in all parts of our life.
- When we take a business situations, there are options that look good and bad and there are also options that fall in grey areas. We end up in losses when we take the option that seems to be favourable but turns unfavourable. And loose opportunity when we neglect an option that finally may turn to be profitable.
- There are friends and there are enemies, also there are people who we think as friends but actually they turn out to be not as friends or worst as enemies and there are people who we don’t bother to care or ignore or think as enemy but they turn to help us better than any friend.

The Importance of Six
The number Six has some predominance in our every day walk of life- hold on I am not going to speak about numerology.
Work Life
In work life from the minute a new resource joins, the first 6 hours makes the impression about the place, in six days he should have an understanding what he is recruited for else he would be in the soup; in six weeks the reporting manager has to give feedback on the performance else the resource will derail from the normal course and it would be difficult for the manager to correct it; in six months the resource should know how he could build the career in the organization else there is no hope for the resource to grow unless luck favours; in six years the resource should have assumed higher responsibilities else it is the time for the resource to look for other oppurtunity elsewhere or it is the time for the management to chuck the resource out-whosoever initiates- pleasure is theirs.
Married Life
In married life, within six hours the bride overcome all the marriage ecstasy and comes to reality while it takes 6 days for a bridegroom to overcome the ecstasy in some worst cases, it takes 6 weeks to feel the reality. If the marriage is sustained in reality for six months without either of them hiding their ulterior thoughts then the marriage can be suspected to be sustained for atleast six years. And if the suspicion is proved the marriage is expected to continue until either of them aparts
Child Conception
If the sperm released germinates an egg within six hours probably the child is going to be a male or if it germinates in six days then the probablity is the child is going to be a female. Upon germination, the first six weeks the mother needs to be careful to avoid any chances of abortion. The quality and quantity of food the mother consumes in the first 6 months of the child will determine the growth and maturity of the child
After Birth
Once the child is born the first 6 weeks needs to be throughly monitored to detect any deficiency; the food that the child takes for 6 months determines most of the growth; the habits that it develops for 6 years sticks unto death
