HOW SHOULD A BRAHMIN EARN MONEY ??

A brahmana should earn money only through following means,

1)By teaching vedas and shastras (adyaapanam)
2)By officiating as a priest in yagya rites (yaajanam) and
3)By getting charity from others(prathigraham)
4) BY PICKING UP GRAINS IN THE FILEDS( SHILONJA VRITTI)

Earning by other means is v.v.very sinful to brahmanas……

Do u do parishaychanam(praanaagnihotram) before eating?

i.e.purifying ur food by sprinkling water around &over the food by gayatri mantra and giving offerings to ur pranas(prana ,apana ,vyana,udhana,samana& the brahma). If u dont do this ur food is nothing but equal to excreta and worms. It is a must 4 every brahmin to do this before eating!!!!!

**DONT EAT ONION,GARLIC,DRUMSTICK,EGG....***

DONT EAT ONION,GARLIC,DRUMSTICK,RADDISH,EGG & DRINK COFFEE,TEA.IF YOU EAT THEM,punarupanayanam must be done! i.e. once again sacred thread ceremony must be done as expiation(prayashchitta) according to dharma shastras.and panchagavya must be drunk to purify yourself .So,be careful!

If you eat them you will lose your brahmanatvam.


Shatathapa smrithi says:

"LASHUNAM KRINJANAM PALANDUM CHA THATAH DVIJA:|USHTRA MANUSHABHASHVARASABHA KSHERA BHOJANATH|| UPNAYANAM PUNA: KAARYA THATHVATH KRUCHRAM CHARAN MUHU:"

WHICH MEANS ,

If a brahmana eats garlic,onion and drinks the milk of camel,human,elephant,horse & donkey he should do thaptha kruchram and perform punarupanayanam।

FOR MEN: DO U WIND UR YAGYOPAVEETHA (SACRED THREAD)IN RIGHT EAR BEFORE ATTENDING NATURAL CALLS?

If u dont, the yagyopaveetha becomes useless. That impure one cannot be considered as sacred and new one must be worn by saying mantras.

For Married: DO U DO AUPASANAM,VAISHVADEVAM,AGNIHOTRAM DAILY TWICE?

If a grihastha brahmin fails to do Aupaasana homam daily for a year ,as a praayashchittham (expiatory rite) he has to give 60 padis(kgs approx) of rice and 3 padis of traditional cow’s ghee to a brahmin who does aupasanam without fail.Multiply the above amount with the no. of years of not doing aupasanam.(eg)For 5yrs : 60*5=300padis of rice & 3*5=15 padis of ghee. If u dont do these 3 daily rites u get mountains of sins daily!!!! Better start doing it soon!!!

Do u have moustache ?

A brahmin who has moustache is pulasthya(very low caste).Ur spiritual activities will not be fruitfull if u have moustache & dont have shika in ur head.So,If u have moustache take it & dont have shika keep it immediately!!!!!!

DO U DO pratyaabdhika SHRAADHA TO UR ANCESTORS YEARLY WITHOUT FAIL?

Every brahmin should do shraadha to his ancestors during amavasya,birth of every month,manvadhi,yugadhi,vaidridhi,ardhodayam,mahodayam,vyathipaadam,ashtaka,anvashtaka without fail.U can see these days in ur almanac.If u r unable to do these shraddhas which count to 96 every year, also called as shannavathi shradhhas u must atleast satisfy ur pitru devatas by doing thila tharpanam which may take only 5 min to do.ATLEAST DO THESE 96 THILA THARPANAMS REGULARLY EVERY YEAR TO GET D GRACE OF UR ANCESTORS.IF U DONT DO THEY HAVE D POWER 2 CURSE U WHICH LEADS 2 PITRU DOSHA!!!

Do you put vibhuthi or gopichandhan on ur forehead daily at home & work?

Those who don’t put pundra on thier forehead are considered as moving dead bodies according to shastras!

WHAT IS VAISHVADEVA HOMAM?

Married brahmanas should do it to get rid of sins done by cooking…..as we kill grains ,veg.,etc by knife,fire etc……. eating food without doing it is equal to eating of worms according to shastras.. one should not eat without doing vaishvadevam…….it should be done in noon & night before eating….balis r given for various devathas……….to satisfy them………if we dont do it ,it is the greatest of sins………..all pancha maha yagyas come under vaishvadevam.
