Those who distrust the Puranas maintain that they contain accounts that are not in keeping with day-to-day realities. The stories in the texts refer to the arrival and departure of celestials and of their awarding boons to devotees. To the critics such accounts

seem false. A woman is turned into a stone because of a curse, then the curse is broken with the grant of boon; or the sun is stopped from rising - such stories seem untrue to us because they are beyond the realms of possibility and refer to acts beyond our own capacity.
Since

such things do not happen these days, is it right to argue that they could not have occurred at any time? In the past the mantras of the Vedas had their own vibrant power because of the exemplary life led by those who chanted them. Then people practised severe austerities and

cultivated yogic power of a high order. These facts are borne out by ancient books. Through their mantras, austerities and yoga, people then could easily draw to themselves powers of a divine nature. Where there is light there is shadow. So with divine powers there also existed

demonic forces that could be seen in their gross form during those times. Today the war between the celestials and the demons is still being waged (the combat between good and evil). Eons ago people could perceive these forces of good and evil because of the special vision gained

प्रश्न = कैसे सिद्ध होता है कि शब्द यात्रा करते हैं ?

बहुत ही रोचक प्रश्न किया है आपने। यहाँ पर हम शब्दों की यात्रा में निहित वैज्ञानिक व दार्शनिक पक्षों के विषय पर चर्चा करेंगे।

हमारे शब्द एक ऊर्जा का रूप ही होते है, जो एक बार शब्द उच्चारित हो गए,

फिर वे वायुमंडल में ही चिर निरंतर के लिए स्थित हो जाते है और यात्रा करते रहते है। कैसे और किस प्रकार?? आगे जानेंगे;

शोधकर्ताओं का मत है कि यदि 50 लोग 3 घंटे तक लगातार एक शब्द उच्चारित करते रहे, तो लगभग छह हज़ार खरब वॉट ऊर्जा उत्पादित होती हैं। याने कि जब हम कोई भी शब्द बोलते है

तो उसका ब्लू प्रिंट ऊर्जा तरंगों के रूप में वायुमंडल में ठहर जाता है। और ये शब्द तरंग कभी भी नष्ट नहीं होती।

जैसा कि न्यूटन की गति का तीसरा नियम- 'ऊर्जा का न तो सृजन और न ही विनाश सम्भव है।'

इस प्राकृतिक नियम पर वैज्ञानिकों को इतना विश्वास है कि इसके बलबूते पर वे द्वापर कालीन गीता उपदेश की शब्द तरंगों को पकड़ने का प्रयास कर रहे हैं। उनका मत है कि हजारों वर्ष पूर्व श्री केशव ने जो गीता श्लोक अपने मुखारविंद से कहे थे, वे आज भी वायुमंडल में यात्रा कर रहे है।

सूक्ष्म तरंगों के रूप में!

यदि इन तरंगों को कैद कर डिकोड कर लिया जाए, तो हम आज भी कृष्ण जी की प्रत्यक्ष वाणी का श्रवण कर सकते हैं!

आतः जिन शब्दों का एक बार हमारे मुख से प्रस्फुटन हो गया, उनकी ऊर्जा-तरंगें हमेशा के लिए वातावरण में विद्यमान हो जाती हैं।

चार प्रकार की उपासना

उपासना में उप+आसना दो पद हैं । उप माने समीप आसना माने बैठना । अपने इष्टदेव का सान्निध्य प्राप्त करना उपासना है ।

"शिव-गीता" में भगवान् शंकर श्रीराम जी को उपदेश करते हुए कहते हैं :: "राम ! उपासना चार प्रकार की हैं

१. सम्पदा :: थोड़े गुणों का अधिक रूप में चिन्तन करना सम्पदा है । जैसे एक मन होने पर भी वृत्ति-भेद से अनेक है , अतः "अनन्तम् वै मन:" कहा गया है । अनन्त रूप में मन का चिन्तन सम्पदा है ।

२. आरोप :: यही सम्पदा मूर्ति-पूजा के रूप में , धातु-पत्थर आदि की मूर्ति में इष्टदेव की भावना करने से प्रतीकोपासना कहलाती है , वह भी दो प्रकार की है

आरोप प्रधान सम्पत्ति :: सगुण-मूर्ति का चिन्तन ।

अधिष्ठान प्रधान अभ्यास :: अधिष्ठान को उद्द्येश्य करके आरोपित का ध्यान करना ।

जैसे सगुण ब्रह्म के चिन्तन करते हुए निर्गुण ब्रह्म का अनुसन्धान करना आरोप है । इसमें विधि-विधान से इष्ट की पूजा , मन्त्रों का शुद्ध उच्चारण तथा मूर्ति में ब्रह्म-बुद्धि आरोप कहा गया है ।

जैसे प्रणवाक्षर उद्गीथ है । अर्थात् प्राणों की उपासना उद्गीथ उपासना है । प्रणवाक्षर का उच्चारण करते हुए की गई उपासना उद्गीथ है तथा प्रधान रूप से जिसका विधान किया जाए उसे विधि कहते हैं ।

🔴 Remedies for strī śrāpa (Curses from the female power) 🔱

Strī śrāpa manifests in life when we have misbehaved with women or strī in our previous or this incarnation. Every strī is an expansion of Devi bhava and every puruṣā is an extension of śiva ṭatva. Women who suffer

at the hand of male counterpart have karmic debts of bad behaviour with males and vice versa.
It is not necessary that the other women should be your wife, she can be anyone; may be a sister, a mother or daughter. In all forms; women related issues are expansion of strī śrāpa.

One thing which someone needs to understand is that all this backfire is generated by his own karmic deeds. Nobody else is responsible for the same.
This usually happens when Venus and Moon are under affliction. So the best remedy is to seek Devi to remove the curse. Usually

Ṃahalaxmi is invoked to remove troubles from Venus however, there are other effective remedies as well.
🔺 Chanting of Srisukta (Without sankalp, nyas etc.) and offering flowers, dhūpa, chandan, ṇaivedya and lamp to Devi. Paṃcopacāra offerings on every Friday. This should be

continued for as long as possible.
🔺 Chanting of Sri lalitāsahastranāma (Without nyāsa, dik Bandhan etc.) and offering Paṃcopacāra with 1000 petals for 1000 names. Each flower or flower petal for each name. Champak and Red hibiscus flowers should be used. This should be done

Surya Namaskar ☀️🙏- is the practice of paying respect to the Sun.

In Vedic tradition, the sun is a symbol of consciousness and the Divine and it is the ultimate source of life & energy.

Therefore Surya Namskar is considered as one of the most important Yog practices.

#Thread

It is characterized by the 12 different Yog Aasanas, that not only pay gratitude to the sun but also bestow the one practising it with several physical and mental health benefits.

It is said that our body has several chakras through which life energy or prana is

channelized to nourish us with good health.

Practising Surya Namaskar activates these chakras, and enhances the size of it, letting prana flow through freely. Thus, strengthening different parts of our body and improving our mental and cognitive abilities.

Best to practice it during sunrise as this is the time when the sun helps revitalize our body and refresh our mind.

The ‘Set of 12’ asanas is dedicated to Surya ( the solar deity) and each aasan is associated with a different mantra.👇🏼

Precautions To take :

To enjoy the benefits of Surya Namaskar, you need to be careful. Avoid practising it if you have:

Coronary artery disease
High blood pressure
Hernia
History of stroke
Periods

Mera wala Hinduism (Thread)

If u r Hindu n active user of SM then one question must have come in ur mind,Why there is no Hindu unity on Social Media ? Why different Hindu groups keep fighting to each other n here there is no cast difference also then why they fight ?

1/17

Why all Hindus not stand together for Hinduism ?

N answer is actually all Hindus stand for Hinduism but definition of Hinduism is different for different groups of Hindus n due to this every Hindu thinks that they r standing for Hindus but other one is not

N here comes the "Mera wala Hinduism"
The main reason of fights among different groups at SM.

Each n every Mslm is clear what is Izsam. They know that complete submission to Allah n to walk on the path of what Allah said is Islam

Can Hindu answer what is Hinduism ?

I am sure there will be different answers from different people. Lets talk abt different Hindu groups active on SM n their definition of Hinduism n how these different interpretation of Hinduism results into fights.
Though there r lot of groups but we will talk abt few ones-

1. Traditional Hinduism - This is the most undiluted form of Hinduism. People belong to this believes in ancient traditions based Hinduism. They believes that traditions n rituals mentioned in scriptures r core of dharma and sud never be diluted with the time

Productivity “gurus” will hate me for telling the truth.

Here are 18 non-BS ways to destroy idleness, increase your work output, and reach your goals:

1. Actually set goals.

If you’re lazy and unmotivated, it doesn’t matter what goals you set (don’t overthink them), just set some and start working towards them.

If I met you on an elevator and asked you what your goals are, could you tell me?

2. Track your damn time.

You think you work hard? Really? Track every minute of your day and prove it to yourself.

The act of tracking your time will force you to be conscious of how you’re spending it. You’ll naturally be more productive.

3. Try to impress someone.

“Oh but that’s so unhealthy.”

Is it? Why? Everyone’s trying to impress someone else. Just bring it to the forefront of your conscious mind and use it as fuel.

Maybe it’s a potential mentor, leader, father figure. You already know who it is.

4. Progressively overload your focus muscle.

If you find it hard to sit down and focus for 90 minutes, then that’s because you don’t sit down and focus enough.

Train your work muscles like you would your physical muscles. Start with 30 mins of focus and work your way up.

A #Thread dedicated to all the mothers of the universe. Please RT forward.

The highest Rina (Debt) is the one we owe to our mother. The mother is the provider of nourishment, both physical and emotional. Have you ever wondered what the mother gives up/undergoes? 1/n

The mother gives up her youth to give birth which changes her physically, emotionally, and physiologically. The body goes through immense changes permanently. The mother never demands anyone in the family to acknowledge all this. She just gives till she passes away
2/n

The mother is the Moon and gets exalted in the natural 2nd house of feeding. This is the happiest state of the mother. The moon owns the natural 4th of domestic peace and harmony. 3/n

The great Jupiter (the guru of the devas) chooses the home of the mother to get exalted. The Mother has the power to summon the greatest of the gurus. One who does not take care of his/her mother has no chance of the guru's blessings. 4/n

The highest state of the moon is Shri Krishna. How can anyone hope to get Shri Krishna's blessings if the mother is unhappy? 5/n

This that possible?

Telling the Dates by Seeing the Moon ? How..?

The moon does not appeal- the same every night. But it continues to change its shape. These different shapes are called kalas. The “deshi” (indigenous) date based on the kalas of the moon is called tithi.

Beginning from the next day after Amauasya, upto Purnima, the tithis.

are numbered as prathama (1) dwitia (2),... Panchdashi (15). They are of Shukla Paksha (ascending order of the moon). After that, and upto Amauasya the tithis are from 1 to 15 of Krishna Paksha (descending

Order of the moon . This is prakalp (arrangement) of a month. Begin it in a clear season from dwitiya (2) or tritiya (3) Shukla-Paksha, because you do not conveniently see the moon during the first one or two nights.”

“(a) Fix a time at night, say one or two hours after sunset. It may be 8.00 P.M. (summers), 7.00 P.M. (winters). Look for the moon every day in the sky at this hour, and draw its figure in your notebook. Write down date and tithi along with it. In this way go on making figures in

in your notebook, seeing in the sky until Purnima (a day or after it). On top of the page write the name of your place (city or district), the time of seeing, and the name of the indigenous month.”

WHAT IS SRI YANTRA

The Sri Yantra also known as the Sri Chakra represents all the fundamental principals of Tantric philosophy. It is known as the best or supreme existing yantra and all other yantras derive from it.

A Yantra is the symbolic representation of the Mother Goddess. It is made up of ‘linear and spatial ‘geometrical permutations’ of the Goddess in the mandala. You find yantras in many sacred geometry works and the design of the Sri Chakra/ Yantra is nine interwoven triangles,

four of which represent the male principle (Shiva) and five inverted triangles representing Shakti, the feminine principal. The nine triangles also represent nine basic elements or root substances (mula-prakritis) of the universe. In the human body they are represented as nine

substances; five from Shakti – skin, blood, flesh, fat and bone. The four from Shiva are – semen, marrow, vital energy (prana) and the individual soul.  
The place of the mother goddess is represented by the dot or bindu in the centre of the design. The dot has four legs

representing the deities responsible for the creation of all things.
Brahma – the creator is in the northeast.
Vishnu – the preserver is in the southeast.
Rudra – for withdrawal is in the southwest.
Sadasiva – for retention is in the northwest.

इस देश को लूटने वाले हमारे प्यारे बन गए और इसे सोने की चिड़िया बनाने वाले चक्रवर्ती सम्राट महाराजा विक्रमादित्य को भुला दिया गया!

सम्राट विक्रमादित्य के नाम से विक्रम संवत चल रहा और 2078 पूर्ण होकर 2 अप्रैल (चैत्र शुक्‍ल प्रतिपदा) से 2079 विक्रम संवत आरम्भ हो रहा।

#LongThread

महान सम्राट महाराजा विक्रमदित्य (विक्रम सेन परमार) और उनकी वीरता और महानता के बारे में आज देश के सिर्फ़ मुट्ठी भर लोगों को ज्ञात होगा, कि उन्होंने इस देश को सोने की चिड़िया बनाया था और देश में स्वर्णिम काल लाया था

विक्रमादित्य के पिता जी का नाम गर्दभील्ल (गंधर्वसेन) था।

सम्राट विक्रमादित्य की बहन का नाम मैनावती था तथा उनके भाई भर्तृहरि महाराज थे। सम्राट विक्रमादित्य की माँ जी का नाम सौम्यदर्शना था।

महाराज विक्रमादित्य, चक्रवर्ती (अर्थात् जिसका संपूर्ण भारत में राज हो) सम्राट थे कहते हैं उनके राज में कभी भी सूर्यास्त नहीं होता था।

महाराज विक्रमादित्य ने हिंदुत्व का परचम पूरे विश्व में लहराया था तथा उन्हीं के कारण ही आज सनातन धर्म बचा हुआ है।

सम्राट विक्रमादित्य का जन्म 101 BCE अवंतिका( उज्जैन) मध्य प्रदेश में हुआ था और 57 BCE में शको ( विदेशी आक्रमणकारियों ) को हराने के उपलक्ष में

नए काल सत्र का निर्माण किया, जिसे हिंदू पंचांग में “विक्रम संवत” के नाम से जाना जाता है |
आज जो भी ज्योतिष गणना है जैसे , हिन्दी सम्वंत , वार ,तिथीयाँ , राशि , नक्षत्र , गोचर आदि उन्ही की रचना है

With the release of #RRR, thread on #AlluriSitaramaRaju one of the two characters on whom the movie is made, albeit in a fictional form. This thread is more about the real life hero, whose story is as fascinating.

Much before #RRR there was the 1974 biopic on #AlluriSitaramaRaju starring veteran actor Krishna, in the lead role, a movie that remains a classic in Telugu cinema to date. Alluri is one of the greatest revolutionaries ever who led a long tribal uprising against the British.

One of the more ignored aspects of the Indian freedom struggle has been the various tribal revolts that broke out against the British rule. Tribals were prohibited from cutting trees for firewood, their traditional Podu cultivation was banned.

And they were often exploited by contractors who used them as labor for building roads in those areas. Many protests broke out in the tribal areas of Eastern India, notably Jharkhand, Chattisgarh, Western Odisha, Bengal, one of the more famous one was that of Birsa Munda

The Agency area covering Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, is the name given to the tribal tracts of Northern parts of both the states, bordering Odisha, Chattisgarh, Maharashtra, along the Eastern Ghats.

Saw a few of you discussing govt. corruption on my TL.
My daddy is a babujeet he regularly tells me story of corruption of fellow babus, would like to share a few instances here.
Would delete this thread in 12 hours, taking a big risk.

1. An IAS from eastern state currently serving as DM of a big district has 2
malls (one full size, one shopping center) in his wife's name in the state capital built free of cost by a notorious sand mafia.

2. An IPS from the same state use to give bribe collection targets to his inspectors when he was SP, the inspectors used to submit the money to his brother in law in Jute gunny bags.

The officer has stashed millions of dollars in banks of a SAARC country and regularly visits the country in name of police to police interaction, but the motive is to check the money.

3. Daddy caught a petrol mafia who offered 5 crore to each member of his team to free him, dad refused and handed him over to state police. He told dad that he was doing a big mistake and he would be out regardless Later he bribed 10 crore each to DM and SP and case was squashed.
