It is said that the thoughts you bring to yourself early in morning or at the time you wake up influence your mood, actions and results throughout the day. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to our thoughts and action when we wake up. In Bhagwad Gita, Lord Krishna has given a simple advice to all the devotees, following which they can experience a blissful day. Let''s check out what it is....
The Saptrishis are born from my heart and are my reflection. A person who remembers their names each morning will spend the entire day happily, while his endeavours will meet with success.
So who are these Saptrishis and what are their names? Let's find out.
1) Vishwamitra
He wrote the Gayatari Mantra and as a teacher of Lord Ram and Lakshman, taught them Devastras - the knowledge and use of celestial weapons in war. Vishwamitra also mentored them in the killing of several demonic characters mentioned in the Ramayana. Legends speak highly of his teachings, including his concepts of heaven and hell, which is still beyond the reach of scientific discovery.2) Vashishta
He was the teacher of the four sons of King Dashratha. The teachings in which he answered Lord Rama's questions and illusions about the universe is known as the Yoga Vashista. He is supposed to have been born as the result of Brahma;s will-power and knew all the secrets of Vedas.3) Bharadwaj
He is the father of sage Dronacharya, which everyone knows was the teacher of Kauravas and Pandavas in Mahabharata.4) Agastya
The origins of Agastya are mythical as he has neither mother nor father. The legend goes that once gods Varun and Mitra were performing a yajna, where celestial nymph Urvashi appears. Overwhelmed by her magnetic sexuality, both ejaculate and their semen fell in a mud pitcher, which became the womb in which Agastya's foetus grew. 5) Bhrigu
He is one of the many prajapatis (the facilitators of creation) created by Lord Brahma and author of Bhrigu Samhita, an astrological classic. He was born from the mind of Brahma.6) Kashyapa
Do you know the region of Kashmir gets its name form Rishi Kashyap who meditated there? Scholars believe that Kashmir is derived from 'Kashyap Mir' or the 'lake of the sage Kashyap.'7) Atri
He is the last of Saptrishis and said to have been born from the tongue of Brahma.
According to Lord Krishna, if you remember these 7 names in the morning after waking up, your endevours throughout the day will meet with success.
