Day Prayer — Planetary Mantras for Daily Spiritual Practice (Navagraha Upasana)
Across every civilisation, the seven days of the week are named after the Planets that govern them — a universal recognition of the Planets’ influence on human life. In the Vedic tradition, the Sages went further: they cognized the Presiding Deity behind each Planetary force and gave us a practical daily Mantra practice — Day Prayer (Navagraha Upasana) — to reduce the obstructional effects of each day’s governing Planet and align our activities with the deeper rhythms of cosmic time.
