Santkumaras-The four adorable kids of the Universe.

The Kumaras r the four sages who roam the Universe as children from the Puranic texts of Hinduism named,Sanaka, Sanatana,Sanandana& Sanatkumara.They r described as the first mind-born creations &sons of the creator God Brahma.

 Brahma,who had received the knowledge of Puranas from the Universal being(God Himself), imbibed this to his 4 Kumaras.
Sanat Kumaras then taught the Puranas to Narada.Narada transmitted it to Krishna Dwaipayana who in turn scripted them in monumental epic documents of 18 Puranas.
The Vishnu Purana is recorded in two parts,the Vishnu Purana & Naradiya Purana.The teachings of Sanaka of the Kumara brothers r contained in the Naradiya Purana which is also divided in two parts, the first part containing the teachings of Sanaka &second part,teachings of others.
Born from Brahma's mind,4 Kumars took lifelong vows of celibacy against their father's wishes.They r said to wander throughout materialistic &spiritualistic universe without any desire but with the aim to teach.All 4 brothers studied Vedas from their Childhood&travelled together.
The Bhagwata Purana lists the Kumaras among the 12 Mahajanas(great devotees or bhaktas) who although being eternally liberated souls from birth, still became attracted to the devotional service of Vishnu from their already enlightened state.
They play a significant role in a number of Hindu spiritual traditions, especially those associated with the worship of Vishnu &his Avatar Krishna, sometimes even in traditions related to the God Shiva.

KUMARA SANAKA says that there is no greater pilgrimage like the river Ganga.
There is no great teacher like one own's mother, no other deity like Bhagwan Vishnu and the Guru is the greatest of all. There is no other brother like peace, no other penance like truth, no other gain better than salvation of the soul and there is no river like the Ganga.
Charity,enjoyment&destruction r only 3 movements of wealth.Wealth which is neither used in doin charities,nor is cherished gets destroyed.Plants too hav lives&nourish&protect the human society with their fruits,roots &branches.If man doesn't chant holy,then he is like dead person
KUMARA SANANDANA says Bhagwan Krishna means, one who is full of all the splendors, all the virtuousness and religiousness, all the fame, all the knowledge, all the wealth and fortune and also possesses all the apathy and who also knows the cause of the creation and destruction.
KUMARA SANATANA says one must follow the rules as they have been described in the sacred texts on Dashami(Tenth Day), Ekadashi(Eleventh Day) and Dwadashi(Twelfth Day). One should avoid the following things on Dashmi Day:
-Pots and Vessels made of Bronze
-Eating Grains
-Eating Honey,Spinach,Pumpkin, Lentils
- Eating food given by others
-Having food second time in a day
-Making sexual contacts with wife

Following things must be avoided on Ekadashi:
-Gambling,Sleeping,Chewing beetle leaves,brushing of teeth, violence,copulating &untruthfulness
Following to be avoided on Dwadashi:
-Items made of Bronze
-Wine,Honey,Oil,Lentils
-Untruthfulness
-Doing exercise
-Going abroad
-Having food twice during day
-Copulating &touching those things which are not worth touching.

KUMARA SANATKUMARA says one who has self-realized...
...neither sees the death of the body, diseases nor sorrows bcoz he understands that the real self is the soul(Atma). When the diet is pure then the innerself becomes pure and when the innerself becomes pure then he acquires remembrance of his past lives(smriti) and he attains...
...eternal knowledge about the permanence of the soul and the ephemeral nature of the physical body.Fools and ignorant people are fearful of thousands of things but the learned man who knows self-realization is not affected by the fear as death and fear have been conquered.
The 4 Kumaras are the eldest sons of Creator God Brahma.When Brahma undertook the task of creation of the Universe,he first created some beings from different parts of his body to aid him.The Kumaras were the first such beings.They were created from his mind &appeared as infants.
Brahma ordered them to aid creation but due to manifestations of Sattva(Purity) and no interest in the worldly life, they refused and instead devoted themselves to God and Celibacy, against their father's wishes.

Some texts like the Devi Bhagwata Purana and Bhavishya Purana...
...narrates that the 4 Kumaras appeared even before the Brahma of present age. As per some texts,Brahma dies &is reborn in a cycle of time.

The 4 Kumaras learnt Vedas at the age of 4 or 5 &thus became great Gyanis(learned beings), yogis & siddhas(the perfect enlightened ones).
The Kumaras remained in the form of children due to their spiritual virtues.The age of the sages varies in various sacred texts. While 5 is the most popular, they are also mentioned as being fifteen or sixteen years old youths. They practiced the vow of renunciation(Sanyasa)...
...and celibacy(brahmacharya) and remained naked. They are sometimes included in the list of Siddhars.
The 4 Kumaras are said to reside in Jana Loka(World of intellectuals in the present parlance) or in the Vishnu's abode Vaikuntha. They constantly chant the Mantra-Hari Sharnam.
They sing Vishnu's praises.The hymns&glories of Vishnu serve as their only food.
Another son of Brahma,Devarshi Narada,who is described as their disciple,extolled their virtues in Padma Purana &says,"Though they appear as 5yr old children,they r the great ancestors of the World".
The Shanti Parva of Mahabharata describes the discourse given by the 4 Kumaras to the Demon King Vritra and his Guru- the sage Shukra. The King and his Guru worship the Kumaras and then Shukra asks them to describe the greatness of Vishnu. Sanat-Kumara starts with describing...
...Vishnu as the creator and destroyer of all beings.He equates Vishnu's body parts with parts of the Universe & the elements,eg the Earth is Vishnu's feet and water is his tongue. Sanatkumara categorises all beings into six colours depending upon the proportion of the 3 gunas.
3 Gunas being Sattva, Rajas and Tamas. From the lowest to the foremost beings, the colours are dark(Tamas is high, Rajas is mild and Sattva is low), blue( Rajas is high, Tamas is mild and Sattva is low), Red(Rajas is high, Sattva is mild and Tamas is low), Yellow(Sattva is high,
Tamas is mild, Rajas is low) and white(Sattva is high,Rajas is mild and Tamas is low). The Vishnu Purana gives non-living things, lower animals and birds, humans, Prajapatis,Gods &the Kumaras r respective examples of the above colours.Sanatkumara elaborates further how a Jeeva...
...journeys from dark to white in his various births, ultimately gaining Moksha if he does good deeds, devotion and yoga.
One should be free from material objects, live a simple life of devotion towards Vishnu and follow the teachings of Guru and attain self-realization.
One should be freed from material objects, live a simple life of non-violence, devotion to Vishnu and follow the teachings of good Guru and undergo self-realization. One should realize that all living things are forms of God. Without knowledge and devotion, humans are incomplete.
Out of 4 Purusharthas( Goals of life), only Moksha is eternal, while religious duty, wealth and pleasure decay with this life. While all beings are subject to destruction, the soul and God in our bodies is eternal. So, it's paramount that you surrender to God , says Sanat Kumara.
The first section or Purvabhaga of Naradiya Purana has 4 padas or sections, each told by the 4 Kumaras respectively to Narada.
The 4 Kumaras roamed around at their free will with their cosmic powers all over the Universe.

During one of their Sojourns, they arrived at Vaikuntha.
The city with the residence of Vishnu located at the center of seven circular walls is considered as a place of bliss and purity. It has seven gates of entry. The 4 Kumaras passes through the first six gates without any hindrance. The seventh gate was guarded by Jaya and Vijaya..
...two dwarpalas of Vishnu's palace.
The angry guardians stopped the four Kumaras and laughed at them since they looked like children and were also naked, and didn't permit them to enter through the 7th gate. The kumaras were perplexed by such ridicule and arrogant behaviour.
They expected Jaya & Vijaya to be like their master Vishnu who doesn't differentiate among beings. The Kumaras cursed them to be born on earth thrice, three villains with characteristics of lust, anger and greed. Gatekeepers begged for their forgiveness. They requested them...
..that they should be devoid of Moha ( infatuation) last they forget their lord Vishnu. Vishnu who learnt of the incident appeared before the Kumaras in all his glory. The 4 Kumaras took in by the sight and divinity of Vishnu appealed to him to accept them as his devotees...
...and allow them to worship him at all time to come and let his feet be their final emancipation. Vishnu agreed to their request and also assured Jaya Vijaya that they will be born as demons on earth but will be released from all births by an Avatar of Vishnu.
These two guards were born on earth in an inauspicious hour to sage kashyap and his wife as Asuras Hiranyakashipu and Hirnyaksh.

Sanaka, Sanandan, Sanatan and Sanat were learned Brahmins. They were the sons of Lord Brahma. They were very proud of their father bcoz he was the...
...creator of the holy books, Vedas. They knew Vedas by heart.

An incident about the meeting of 4 Kumaras with Vishnu's avatar Rama is narrated in 'Uttarkanda' of the 'Ramcharitmanas'.The Kumaras once stayed in the Hermitage of Sage Agastya who told them about the glory of Rama.
So, to meet Rama, they went to a forest Grove where Rama with his brothers and disciple Hanuman had come. Rama and his brothers were so pleased with the meeting with 4 Sages that they paid obeisance to them. The sages were wonderstruck looking at the divinity of Rama that they..
..started shredding tears of happiness. Rama looking at the sages was deeply impressed and asked them to be seated and praised them for their great achievements and their erudite knowledge of the Vedas and Puranas. The 4 Kumaras were also delighted to hear the words of...
...praise showered on them by Rama. They in turn extolled his great virtues in a hymn.

🌺कैसे बने गरुड़ भगवान विष्णु के वाहन और क्यों दो भागों में फटी होती है नागों की जिह्वा🌺

महर्षि कश्यप की तेरह पत्नियां थीं।लेकिन विनता व कद्रु नामक अपनी दो पत्नियों से उन्हे विशेष लगाव था।एक दिन महर्षि आनन्दभाव में बैठे थे कि तभी वे दोनों उनके समीप आकर उनके पैर दबाने लगी।


प्रसन्न होकर महर्षि कश्यप बोले,"मुझे तुम दोनों से विशेष लगाव है, इसलिए यदि तुम्हारी कोई विशेष इच्छा हो तो मुझे बताओ। मैं उसे अवश्य पूरा करूंगा ।"

कद्रू बोली,"स्वामी! मेरी इच्छा है कि मैं हज़ार पुत्रों की मां बनूंगी।"
विनता बोली,"स्वामी! मुझे केवल एक पुत्र की मां बनना है जो इतना बलवान हो की कद्रू के हज़ार पुत्रों पर भारी पड़े।"
महर्षि बोले,"शीघ्र ही मैं यज्ञ करूंगा और यज्ञ के उपरांत तुम दोनो की इच्छाएं अवश्य पूर्ण होंगी"।


महर्षि ने यज्ञ किया,विनता व कद्रू को आशीर्वाद देकर तपस्या करने चले गए। कुछ काल पश्चात कद्रू ने हज़ार अंडों से काले सर्पों को जन्म दिया व विनता ने एक अंडे से तेजस्वी बालक को जन्म दिया जिसका नाम गरूड़ रखा।जैसे जैसे समय बीता गरुड़ बलवान होता गया और कद्रू के पुत्रों पर भारी पड़ने लगा


परिणामस्वरूप दिन प्रतिदिन कद्रू व विनता के सम्बंधों में कटुता बढ़ती गयी।एकदिन जब दोनो भ्रमण कर रहीं थी तब कद्रू ने दूर खड़े सफेद घोड़े को देख कर कहा,"बता सकती हो विनता!दूर खड़ा वो घोड़ा किस रंग का है?"
विनता बोली,"सफेद रंग का"।
तो कद्रू बोली,"शर्त लगाती हो? इसकी पूँछ तो काली है"।

Rani Chennamma of Kittur was one of the first women rulers of India who fought against the might of the British Empire in 1824. Rani Chennamma was born in 1778 in a small village of Kakati in Belgaon distt of the State of Karnataka.


She was born into the Lingayat Community to a man named Dhulappa Desai. From a very young age she was trained in horse riding,sword fighting, archery and diplomacy. At a very young age of 15 yrs, she was married to the King of Kittur and became the Queen of Kittur.


It is said that King of Kittur Mallasarja was once moving around in the neighbouring kingdoms to find support to fight Tipu Sultan. It is then, when he came across Chennamma and he immediately got attracted to her sheer confidence and bravery.

Rani Chennamma and King Mallasarja had a son together who died very soon after the death of King Mallasarja in 1816. As the Queen of Kittur, Rani Chennamma immediately adopted Shivalingappa as her son and declared him the heir to the throne of Kittur.

This did not go well with the British East India Company who was enforcing the Doctrine of Lapse those days, according to which the adopted children of the Indian rulers were not allowed to become their heirs and if the native rulers did not have children of their own, their...

🌺हम सभी ने ऋषि, मुनि, महर्षि, साधु और संत जैसे शब्द तो सुने ही हैं और हम सोचते हैं कि इन सबका अर्थ एक ही है परन्तु वास्तव में इन सब मे अंतर होता है?🌺

⚜️क्या आपको पता है कि ऋषि, मुनि, महर्षि, साधु और संत जैसे शब्दों में क्या अंतर है?⚜️

ऋषि शब्द की व्युत्पत्ति 'ऋष' है जिसका अर्थ 'देखना' या 'दर्शन शक्ति' होता है।

🌺Rishi Bharadwaj and his quest to learn the Vedas.🌺

"One has to be humble if he desires to acquire knowledge - Rig Veda.”
There once lived a great Rishi named Bharadvaja.He had an intense desire for knowledge &made it his life goal to master the Vedas.


The Vedas are India’s oldest sacred texts. However, the sage knew that he was only going to live for a hundred years. So he did severe penances and pleased Dev Indra.

Indra appeared before him and the sage asked Indra, “Please give me a hundred more years so that I can complete studying the three vedas”.
Then Indra said,”Tathasthu ( let it be so)”. So the sage Bharadwaja studied the vedas continuously.


When the end of that 100 more years approached, he again prayed to Indra and asked for 100 more years. Indra granted his request. When he again prayed to Indra for further longevity, Indra appeared before him and decided to instruct the rishi Himself.

The Dev then uttered the three vyahritis “Bhuh”, “Bhuva”, and “svah” and created three huge mountains.
When the sage saw the mountains he thought, “Maybe the three mountains represent my mastery over the three vedas”.

Stories of Guruvayurappan
Shri Krishna Leela

This is a beautiful story of Guruvayurappan. Once there lived in Guruvayur a poor family. Kitta, his wife & kids were struggling for their daily needs. With only a coconut tree in house, he earned a living by selling coconuts.


Kitta was from a low caste family. He was a great devotee of Guruvayurappan. Everyday before going to work he always prayed infront of a picture of Guruvayurappan in his house. His only wish was to worship at Guruvayur & have annadanam in temple. But he was not allowed there


It was Utsavam time in Guruvayur. From far behind kitta and family worshipped Guruvayurappan. Annadanam was given daily and no one was left empty stomach. Only Kitta didn't receive. That night, it was only Kitta's family who was sleeping without food. After temple nada closed


Shri Krishna, dressed himself as a Brahmin went to temple Kitchen. He packed food and went directly to kitta's house. Reaching Kitta's house, Shri Krishna told he was sent by a cook of Guruvayur temple and gave them the food he packed. Kitta and family was very happy seeing food.


When Kitta finished his food, Brahmin asked it will be better if he get a tender coconut( karikku)to drink. Kitta climbed the tree and gave all coconuts to him. After having 1 tender coconut, the Brahmin asked to bring remaining coconuts to Guruvayur temple the next day.

Buy monthly ATM or near ATM CE & PE at matching price (5-10 points diff should be fine) as hedge
For ex : Buy Nifty 17250 CE at 150 and Nifty 17300 PE at 155 so it will become long straddle.

Weekly Short straddle + Monthly Long straddle

• If you feel slightly bullish/bearish then no adjustment needed
• If Nifty moves 50 up or down and sustain then just simply roll up or down half of qnty and keep rest of the quantity. If market goes up or down further then roll up or down rest.

• If Nifty moves one side or about to breach BEP then add equal amount of lot. This can balance tested side. For ex: If I bought 17300 CE 4 lot as hedge then add 4 lot so you will have only one side risk . Note: Remember to keep SL at cost price (only for additional lot bought)

Capital requirement:
2.2 L for 4 lot
Adjustment requires additional capital upto 1L

Note : High risk high reward strategy, please don’t execute until you fully understand. Kindly do paper trading or backtest.

You can lose 40 pounds of fat,

And be in incredible shape in 4 months.

All you have to do is follow these 11 simple guidelines:


· Preparation meets expectations

What do you expect to be feasible for you? Can you let go of the things that got you here?

Never treat such an endeavor as a sprint. It's a marathon.

Set realistic goals.

There's only ONE shortcut to get there faster: DO THE WORK!

· Avoid processed food

Eating highly processed foods for just two weeks can lead to weight gain and body fat increase.

Eat real food.

Get 90% of your calories from single-ingredient nutrient-dense

· Studies indicate that a high-protein diet is essential for stimulating muscle growth and losing fat.

0.73–1 gram of protein per pound (1.6–2.2 g/kg) of body weight per day is best for maximizing muscle gain and losing that stubborn fat.

· Never trust your gut

Weigh and track your foods. Timestamp your eating habits.
Compare prices between going out and prepping at home.

This will give you actual numbers and the right education to move forward from being unaware to being actually aware.

Hey, who wants to read a story about @Upwork fucking over freelancers in order to upsell their clients on unnecessary services the clients don't want and can't afford? Strap in!

So after my marketing agency closed I started freelancing again. A marketing company that wanted to work with me only hires freelance writers through @Upwork. So I signed up. I wasn't thrilled about it, but that's who they contract with and it's their marketing company.

I've been receiving regular assignments from this company, thru @Upwork, for over a month now. I've written dozens of articles for them. My work has been exemplary. I've been handling repeated rush jobs and delivering. The client was and is very happy. That's coming from them.

While I was wrapping up several assignments this week I was contacted by the marketing company. They asked if I had taken a new full-time job and wasn't available anymore. It seems @Upwork's talent group told them I was no longer available to take assignments.

I was very surprised. Nothing had changed on my end. I still needed the freelance work very much. I told them so. So the marketing company pressed @Upwork and were told there were "compliance" issues that were preventing the marketing company from giving me any more work.

Great article from @AsheSchow. I lived thru the 'Satanic Panic' of the 1980's/early 1990's asking myself "Has eveyrbody lost their GODDAMN MINDS?!"


The 3 big things that made the 1980's/early 1990's surreal for me.

1) Satanic Panic - satanism in the day cares ahhhh!

2) "Repressed memory" syndrome

3) Facilitated Communication [FC]

All 3 led to massive abuse.

"Therapists" -and I use the term to describe these quacks loosely - would hypnotize people & convince they they were 'reliving' past memories of Mom & Dad killing babies in Satanic rituals in the basement while they were growing up.

Other 'therapists' would badger kids until they invented stories about watching alligators eat babies dropped into a lake from a hot air balloon. Kids would deny anything happened for hours until the therapist 'broke through' and 'found' the 'truth'.

FC was a movement that started with the claim severely handicapped individuals were able to 'type' legible sentences & communicate if a 'helper' guided their hands over a keyboard.

This post is pretty bizarre, but it manages to hit on so many false beliefs that I've seen hurt junior data scientists that it deserves some explicit

(1) The notion that R is well-suited to "building web applications" seems totally out of left field. I don't feel like most R loyalists think this is a good idea, but it's worth calling out that no normal company will be glad you wrote your entire web app in R.

(2) It is true that Python had some issues historically with the 2-to-3 transition, but it's not such a big deal these days. On the flip side, I have found interesting R code that doesn't run in modern R interpreters because of changes in core operations (e.g. assignment syntax).

(3) "Most of the time we only need a latest, working interpreter with the latest packages to run the code" -- this is where things get real and reveal some things that hurt data scientists. If this sentence is true, it's likely because you don't share code with coworkers.

(3) Really is a broader issue in data science: people only think of what they need to do their work if no one else existed and code was never maintained. Junior data scientists almost always operate on projects they start from scratch and don't have to maintain for long.

So here is a secret: Not everything I write goes anywhere. I have at least 4 books completely written and edited that never went on submission. I have books that stalled out at 20k. I have docs on my computer with opening paragraphs I don't remember writing. But! 1/

Every now and then an idea sticks with me like that corner of tortilla chip that just won't go down your throat. It happened with SPARROWHAWK, which began as 40k of a YA story, died, and was reborn as a comic, thanks to @christopher_j_r and @boomstudios. And now... 2/

It's happening with THE WILLOWS, a short story that you'll see in @UncannyMagazine next year. This Southern Gothic horror story began as an attempt to sell my next Romance to @AbZurdity after the Blud books in 2014 or so. And she didn't buy it. Guess why? 3/

Turns out, it wasn't a Romance! It was Southern Gothic Horror. Even the bones of it screamed strangeness, not sexiness. I loved the taste of the world, but I hadn't found the right story yet. Tried to write it 2 more times and failed. Until I finally understood what it was. 4/

So I took the 50 pages I'd written and cut half of them, twisting the story around from a gothy Romance inspired by the band the Civil Wars and turned it into a spooky descent into madness. And it looked back at me from the abyss as if to say, DUH. Sometimes... 5/
