If a Sanyasi who always reveled in Brahman could also feel the greatness of a mother, one should understand

Paramatma does Srusthi, Sthithi, and Laya. Laya does not actually mean destruction but means taking back in.
By study of Sastras and performing sadaachara, one is able to clear Rishi runa. By feeding other beings and taking care

Good question. A little background info first to put things in perspective. Brahman has no form. It is an experience. However, for upaasana certain forms are ascribed to it by Vedas which fully encapsulate the actual tatvam of Brahman. So when a certain form is chosen for upasana
several things are ascribed to that form - a recognition of its power, Sakti, which is a feminine quality and hence worshiped as a consort, parivaara devataas (ones who always serve that form and show others how it's done), and a vaahana. Here, Vaahana does not only mean
a vehicle. Vaahana is actually a conduit. It tells you what kind of devotion is required in order to be always in service of that diety and to be chosen by that form. Vaahana is also an insignia or a Dwajam that espouses the gunas of that diety.
Now, coming to the question. Hanuman is usually worshiped as Raamadaasa, Raamadhuta, etc. However, there are Hanumadh upaasakas who specifically worship Hanuman as Brahman complete with Avataras. There are many mantra sastras that support this. In fact, they say Ha nu ma
are subtle syllables within the A U Ma Omkara itself, which means one needs to probe deep in order to understand the actual Hanumad tatvam. Hanuman is really a Brahmachari no doubt but, like I said above, upasana vidhis require that He be worshiped with a consort and vaahana
I need your opinion on something else as well...

There is story of Camel being the vahanam of Hanuman... how true is it? Seems very prevalent in Telegu literature!

Seriyana loosu. This is why I said Eelam activists are better off doing kuthu rap instead of worrying about whether Shiva is Vedic or not. Then these same people say Om Namah Shivaya. Adding Om and Nama: automatically makes it a mantra.
**Long thread alert**
Mantras are only found in Vedas, not in the common tongue. Anyways, her perspectives matter zilch. What is more alarming is how a proper Thirumurai vakyam such as Anbe Sivam is being twisted and appropriated for nefarious agendas and how SM is brazenly peddling the same nonsense.
Yasya nishvasitam Vedaa: yo vedebhyo akhilam jagat | Nirmame tam aham vande vidyaatirtha Maheshvaram ||
One Whose very breath is the Veda using which the entire Creation was made, I bow down to Maheswara Who purifies with His wisdom.
So, if Vedas are really His own breath, how
can one draw stupid faux ethnic identities denying His indication in the Vedas? This has no rationale even to the self-proclaimed rationalists.
Let's attempt to understand what the naama Shiva means. I believe this foundation is important before we go on to understand any Naama vaibhavam. Do note that in SD, the Naama and the Naami are indifferent. In fact, Bhaktas consider the Naama to be greater since

Rig Veda the oldest only mentions Shiva twice. Common sense? Zoroastrianism.

Ugadi isnt a mere start to a new year. As always with Bharatiya sampradayas, there's a lot of Rishi vignaana that brings together the physical, metaphysical, and the Absolute onto one plane for our overall material and spiritual growth. This thread talks about a few such aspects.
Unlike other cultures around the world, Bhaaratiya civilization is the only one to properly understand the dynamic nature of time and its implications on sentient and non-sentient beings.
We have discussed some of these concepts earlier while trying to understand the significance of Deepavali.

Time plays a very important role in shaping our lives. Everything is a function of time, which is why Time is a form of Paramatma. We have Siva worshipped as Mahaakaal in Ujjain, Ambal worshipped as Kaali; in fact, Kaali puja is an integral component of Deepavali celebrations in

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.
https://t.co/FBfXhUrH5d
Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.
...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.
Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
