I got these verses from a Kannadiga Brahmin friend

'Aum Bhur Bhavasvaha
Tat Savatvarenyam
Bhargo devasya Dhimahe
ghiyo yon prachodayat'

Every morning he says these verses. He does not
know the meaning of these. When I stressed,
he told me he will get the meaning from their
parents. I told him these verses are only
for Brahmins. How come he says this to a Paraiya?
He told me that he never heard of a Paraiyah.
He knows about the castes Thevar, Pillai, Naadar
etc. I told him the meaning of Paraiya in
English is a despicable person. He surprised
and he told me whether such practise is still
there in India.

I would like to know the meaning of these verses.
If some more verses are also there please post
it with the meaning.

  Antoher anti-Tamil element calling himself Tamilian shooting his mouth off, having nothing coming off his brains (he hasn't one).
  
  //I feel sorry for idiappam's bakcwardness and slum culture//
  
  Do yourself a great favour - don't 'feel sorry'; just buzz off!

  Tamil is already killed, after 10 years, Tamil will only remain in small rural pockets and in slums and backward areas. Christians are hell bent on converting everyone out here. Every tamilnadu village on average has one church..
  
  Tell me what is the future of Tamil when every backward wants to go to church and go to missionary school. The situation in tamilnadu as well as kerala is very alarming... It is high time tamilnadu bans all the english medium and hindi schools so that future of tamil can be saved, other wise it is going to go to toilets.
  
  Another reason being it is half baked incomplete langauge with all most 50% of missing phonetics. so educated like brahmins and upper classes have already given up Tamil and adopted Hindi for good future and to be culturally forward. A tamil family adopted Hindi as language is always faring better and culturally much ahead. rest is all low in life and backward with Tamil divinity ranting.

  Tony you forgot, i would like to add:
  
  get a big govt job,
  become rich by giving licences to autorickshwas
  
  by giving driving licenses for 1000/- rs to anyone,
  
  by giving passports for 20000/- rs to everyone, mind you in Chennai most of smugglers in Burma bazzar holds five passports.
  
  then fake degrees
  then you have fake job consultants(overseas recruiters)
  
  These are all major professions in Chennai city.

  Hi all,
  Be careful before talking bad about Brahmins. Only blessed ones can be brahmins keep that in mind. Every words we pronounce makes us use the nevers and bones move in our body.Every manthram has an unique effect on the health and controlling the mind.
  Simillarly "Gayathri manthram" is the ultimate manthram which make your body and mind pure. This was told only by bhamins because they were vegetarians"
  
  Poda pee pun-dai.

  soothiram or chootram
  it makes no differnce in Tamil language, as tamil script is not capable to differntiate it.
