हिन्दू धर्म के 10 महत्वपूर्ण रहस्य:-

हिन्दू धर्म एक रहस्यमयी धर्म है। यह एकेश्‍वरवादी होने के साथ-साथ इस धर्म में देवी-देवता, भगवान, गुरु, पितृ, प्रकृति आदि को भी पूर्ण सम्मान दिया गया है। पाप और पुण्य की विस्तार से चर्चा की गई है।

👇👇

न्याय और अन्याय की भी परिभाषा बताई गई है। कर्मफल को भाग्यफल से महत्वपूर्ण माना गया है। पुनर्जन्म में इस धर्म की गहरी आस्था है। यम और नियम के सिद्धांत इस धर्म के मुख्‍य सिद्धांत हैं। प्रार्थना, व्रत, तीर्थ, दान और... प्रत्येक हिन्दू का कर्तव्य है।

ज्ञात रूप से इस धर्म के 12 हजार वर्ष प्राचीन इतिहास एक रहस्य ही है।

पहला रहस्य...
कल्प वृक्ष : वेद और पुराणों में कल्पवृक्ष का उल्लेख मिलता है। कल्पवृक्ष स्वर्ग का एक विशेष वृक्ष है। हिंदू धर्मग्रंथों के अनुसार यह माना जाता है कि...

Did you know ?

When India got independence, West Bengal was a role model state, and the industrial capital of the nation. It was reflected in the statistics as well, with Bengal regularly securing either 1st or 2nd rank in per capita income..

Cont 👇

throughout the 1950s and early 1960s (its closest competitor was Maharashtra). Even in terms of human development indicators like literacy, healthcare, etc, Bengal was always in top 3. But in mid 1960s, something changed.

Cont 👇

Surprisingly, high literacy which was supposed to be a boon, started turning out to be a double edged sword, as most of the well educated intellectuals in Bengal gradually started opening up to Karl Marx's ideologies i.e. Communist agenda.

Cont 👇

Suddenly, the same industries which helped them gain literacy and better living standards, began to be looked down upon as enemies of humanity, because Marx said so. The menace of labour strikes were on the rise, and entrepreuners were portrayed as villains.

Here is one quick example to illustrate the point. Mr Birla, who was admired globally for his business acumen, was dragged out of his car by a group of communist workers, and his clothes were torn down.
