	\|\| Nitya Prarthana - Daily Prayers \|\|

		Back to Hindu Culture
	Snan Mantra (Prayer during Bath) Mangalacharan (Prayer after bath) Karadarshan Bhoomivandan (Prayer to seek apology from goddess earth for touching her by feet.)	Pratsmaran - Morning prayer Teerthaprashan Prayer (Prayer while drinking holy water) Annagrahan Prayer - (Prayer before starting Lunch or Dinner) Sayam Prarthana - Evening Prayer

Everyday prayers are very important part in Hindu culture. There are different prayers for different times & occasions. I have given below some very important prayers which are very easy to memorize even for children. Especially parents in US can teach these prayers to their kids to imbibe rich Indian Heritage in the midst of high western influence.		Some of these prayers also act as timers e.g you know when to finish bath, morning prayer. These prayers teach us to remain humble and indebted towards all external forces and entities which help us making our lives successful such as Mother Nature, Mother Earth, Place where we live, parents, relatives, friends, guru etc...

	\|\| Snanache Mantra \|\| (These mantras are to be chanted while taking bath)


	Following mantras are to be chanted after bath in front of God. Before starting the prayer take some water in a small pot & keep in front of the god. After the Pratsmaran, take water in your right hand and drink it. This is known as Tirthaprashan.
