UTAH: Remotely recited Hindu prayers will inaugurate meetings of one county commission and seven city councils in Utah during the next two weeks, containing verses from the world’s oldest existing scripture.
These will be operated via web-conferencing or Zoom or other electronic method, and will start the day of city/town councils of Brigham City, Orem, West Haven, South Ogden, Ivins, West Point, Mantua and county commission of Box Elder.
Renowned Hindu statesman Rajan Zed said that divine blessings and guidance can be effectively invoked remotely.
Zed, who will deliver these invocations said God is omnipresent and hears the prayers made to him from anywhere.
Zed, also the President of Universal Society of Hinduism, will read the invocations from Sanskrit scriptures before these county commission and city councils.
He then will read the English interpretation of the prayers after delivery in Sanskrit, which is considered a sacred language in Hinduism and root language of all the Indo-European languages.
Zed will also recite from Rig-Veda — the world’s oldest scripture – that is still in common use.
He will also recite lines from Bhagavad-Gita and the Upanishads, and will start and end each prayer with “Om”, the mystical syllable containing the universe.
Reciting from Bhagavad-Gita, Zed will urge county commissioners and council members and others to keep the welfare of others always in mind.
He had opened Utah House of Representatives; county commission meetings of Juab, Utah State Senate, Salt Lake, Utah, Washington, Wasatch, Weber counties; city council meetings of Alpine, Centerville, Bluffdale, Draper, Charleston, Herriman, Heber City, Oakley, Layton, Perry, Payson, Salem, Provo, St. George, South Jordan, Sandy, Taylorsville, Syracuse, West Bountiful, Vineyard, Willard, West Valley, Woods Cross—all in Utah; with Hindu invocations in the past.
