意思
The act of worship or praying
文化背景
The 'Pasayadan' is a famous prayer written by Saint Dnyaneshwar in the 13th century. It is considered the 'prayer of prayers' in Marathi culture, asking for universal harmony. Varkaris (pilgrims) believe that 'Prarthana' is best done through 'Kirtan' (singing and storytelling). It is a very active and loud form of prayer. The 'Sandhyakal' (evening) is a specific time for prayer. When the lamps are lit, children are expected to stop playing and say their prayers. Even in secular Marathi schools, 'Prarthana' is a time for moral reflection, often using songs by social reformers like Sane Guruji.
Use 'Karne' for everything
Remember that in Marathi, you don't 'say' or 'read' a prayer in general conversation; you always 'do' it.
Gender Matters
Always remember 'Prarthana' is feminine. This is the most common mistake for Hindi and English speakers.

Fold your hands
