🌺जब गणेश जी की क्षुधा शान्त न कर पाए धन कुबेर🌺

सनातन धर्म में धन, सुख और समृद्धि के देवता कुबेर माने गए हैं ।एक बार कुबेर जी को इसी बात का अभिमान हो आया कि उनका इस संसार में कितना महत्व है। उनके बिना तो कोई भी व्यक्ति धन,सुख और समृद्धि को नहीं पा सकता।

कुबेर को इसबात का घमंड होगया कि उनमें इतनी क्षमता है कि वो सभी का भरण पोषण कर सकते हैं।उनके धन वैभव से वो किसी को भी तृप्त कर सकते हैं।अब कुबेर सभी देवी देवताओं के पास जाकर स्वयं ही अपना गुणगान करने लगे व ये सोचने लगे कि वे ऐसा क्या करें कि तीनों लोकों में उनकी और भी जय जयकार हो।

एकदिन अभिमान में चूर कुबेर जी कि मुलाकात देवर्षि नारद से होती है।नारद जी के सामने भी कुबेर अपना बखान और गुणगान करना शुरु कर देते हैं और उनसे ये पूछते हैं कि उन्हें और क्या करना चाहिये जिससे कि उनके वर्चस्व में चार चाँद लग जाएं। नारद जी उनकी बातों में छुपे अहंकार को भांप लेते हैं।

तब देवर्षि उन्हें कुछ ऐसा करने को कहते हैं जिससे कुबेर जी का अहंकार चूर हो जाए।नारद कुबेर को कहते हैं,"हे कुबेर!आपको अपने वर्चस्व में चार चाँद लगाने के लिए एक भव्य भोज का आयोजन करना चाहिए व उस भोज में संसार के सभी जीवों,सभी देवी-देवता,नाग,गन्धर्व,यक्ष आदि को आमंत्रित करना चाहिए।

इनके अलावा आप त्रिदेवों ब्रह्मा,विष्णु और महेश को भी सपरिवार आमंत्रित करें।ऐसे भव्य भोज का आयोजन करने से चारों दिशाओं और तीनों लोकों में आपके धन-वैभव और समृद्धि की जय-जयकार होगी।" कुबेर देवर्षि कि ये बात सुन बहुत ही खुश होते हैं और भव्य-भोज की तैयारी शुरु कर देते हैं ।

🌺Hinduism regards all souls as equal & all beings as the manifestation of Supreme Brahman & that's why we see God in everyone of his creation.🌺

Presence of soul in animal bodies may pose some problems to them with regard to their chances of liberation, but it does not..

..alter their essential nature.Beings differ in their ability &intelligence bcoz of presence or absence of certain aspects of Nature, but the soul is same in all. They r manifestations of Supreme Brahman,they deserve to be treated well& allowed to evolve in their own natural way.

Compassion to animals is an important virtue for those who seek liberation or those who want to lead virtuous lives on the path of righteousness to cultivate divine qualities. Killing animals without reason has the same karmic consequence..

..as killing humans, since every living being upon earth has an opportunity to evolve into higher life forms and work for their salvation.

Although animals enjoy the same spiritual status as humans, they are not well qualified to achieve liberation, since they do not..

..possess the higher mind or discriminating intelligence to make intelligent choices. Hence, to achieve liberation they have to take birth as humans. In some extraordinary circumstances, due to past karmas or the grace of God, they may rarely achieve liberation.

💮🌺Madhubani Art🌺💮

The Madhubani or Mithila paintings of Bihar are one of the most vibrant folk arts of the world. Using natural dyes/pigments and fingers, twigs, matchsticks, brushes and pens, it is an art form dominated by women, who use it as...

...self expression and to reflect the mores of their society and region.

The form dates back to the Ramayana period, but was revived by WG Archer, an Englishman in the 1940s. It is divided into 5 distinct styles.

The skills are passed from mother to daughter, the decoration of the kohbar(the newly weds room) being the culmination of a lifetime of learning the art.Thereby,it makes sense that overweening themes are love & fertility,accompanied by religious motifs from Sanatan Vedic Culture.

Madhubani has traditionally been painted on mud walls but in recent years, artists such as Sita Devi and Ganga Devi have made paper /canvas works that stand individually as art.

Their interpretation of western themes such as the Twin Towers, the Arlington Cemetery and roller coasters are worth appreciating. Artists such as these are now collected in Japan and the USA, where the Asian Art Museum held a special showing.

RANI NAIKI DEVI AND THE BATTLE OF KASAHRADA

Mohammad Ghori, the young Ghurid Prince conquered Ghaznavids in Afghanistan in the year 1173 CE. He conducted some successful raids into the Indian territory, which even Mahmud Ghazni & the Persians couldn't do.

First&foremost,Ghori invaded states of Multan &Uch in India.After this he turned to southern states of Gujarat &Rajputana.Everybody knows this about Ghori,but what most pple r unaware of is the defeat he suffered at hands of Chalukyan Queen Naiki Devi in 1178 Battle of Kasahrada.

When he marched southwards, his first target was the prosperous fortified town of Anhilwara Patan.
It was the capital of Chalukyas(also known as Solankis of Gujarat) which was established by Vanraj of Chapotkata Dynasty in 8th century.

American historian Tertius Chandler states that it was the 10th largest city in the world at that time. The history of Chalukyas has been written by many historians, but the valour of the Great Queen Naiki Devi remains unsung.

Born to the Kadamba King Paramardin of Goa,Naiki Devi was well trained in sword fighting, horse riding, strategy & every other subject of Statesmanship. She was married to King Ajaypala of Gujarat who sat on throne in 1171CE. Unfortunately,the King died within 4 yrs of his rule.

#VivahPanchami thread. Why did Shri Ram marry Mata Sita & what does it signify?

Tulsidas describes it as:

देखि सीय सोभा सुखु पावा। ह्रदयं सराहत बचनु न आवा।।
जनु बिरंचि जब निज निपुनाई। बिरचि बिस्व कहं प्रगटि देखाई।।

1/6

It means, seeing Sita, Ram was delighted. He was all praise for her in his heart; but said nothing. Her beauty seemed to him as if Brahma had presented the whole world’s beauty before his eyes.

Sita on the other hand kept praying to Paravati & wished Ram to be her husband.

2/6

Spiritual Significance:

Dashrath (Ten Chariots) represent 5 sense organs & 5 organs of action.

Ram represents pure form of Atman, i.e consciousness. Sita means Earth & represents मन (mind).

3/6

When Ram married Sita, the marriage represents: Pure Light merging with the Mind, which gives birth to the human body.

When Consciousness (Ram) merges with mind (Sita), conflicts arise. Both enter the dark forest of attractions & distractions (वनवास).

4/6

The whole Itihaas of Ramayan revolves around the re-union of the Mind with Consciousness.

Ram & Sita aren't merely two separate individuals. Sita is his reflection & Ram is Sita’s power of action. Their physical manifestation reflects a deeper unity between the two.
