Sri, Boomi, Neela, Mahalakshmi, Narayani samedha Sri Narayana Perumal, at Sri Pancha Lakshmi Narayana Temple, West Mambalam, Baroda Street, Chennai.

Here Perumal is found with five Thayars unlike most temples where He is seen with Sridevi and Bhoodevi.


Sridevi, Bhoodevi and Neeladevi are found on either side of the Perumal and Mahalakshmi is found as Thani Nachiyar.

The fifth Lakshmi, Narayani, is found in the heart of Narayana Perumal.

Since Perumal has the Thayar as part of His thirumeni (body), He is adorned with a waist belt (Oddiyanam) and anklets on His feet.

The Perumal looks resplendent in His Paramapatha Kolam and those worshipping Him in this form are said to be relieved of all their sins and can reach the lotus feet of the Lord at the end of their lives.

This Perumal has been in worship for centuries in a private household of an industrialist and based on the divine instructions received, they have made worship of these deities public.

The grace of this Perumal has spread far and wide and this place is often very crowded.

Sri Ooraga Perumal (aka) Ooragathan, at Sri Ulagalandha Perumal Temple, Kanchipuram, TN.
-------------------------------------------
Thiru Ooragam:
God Shriman Narayana, our Emperuman, has manifested in the shape of Adhiseshan, the 5 headed snake in this temple.


He is found in a seperate sannidhi next to Ulagalandha Perumal in Thiru Ooragam.
Ooragam' (reptile) signifies Snake and God Vishnu gave darshan to Mahabali as the Serpent God here.

Mahabali Chakravarthy, the grandson of Prahaladhan, did a very large yagam (or) homam to get the Devendra logam, which is called “Swargham”.

But, that lokam belongs to Indiran, who is the King of that Lokam.
Being a top-notch devotee of Sriman Narayanan, he was capitulated by means of temptation and decided to acquire the Devendra Lokam.

To make him understand and punish him, Sriman Narayanan took the Vaamana avatar (dwarf) and requested 3 feet of his land.

அனைவராலும் “ஆறு வார்த்தைகள்” என்று பிரபலமாக அழைக்கப்படும் (ஆறு கட்டளைகளை) நம்பிகள் வாயிலாக இளையாழ்வாருக்கு அனுக்கிரஹித்தருளினார். அவைகள்:

1.அஹமேவ பரம் தத்வம் – நானே எல்லாவற்றுக்கும் மேலான மெய்ப்பொருள்


2.தர்சனம் பேத ஏவ – ஜீவாத்மாக்களும்/அசேதனங்களும் என்னிலிருந்து வேறுபட்டவை (அவை என்னுடைய சரீரமாக விளங்குபவை)

3.உபாயம் ப்ரபத்தி – “என் ஒருவனையே தஞ்சமாகப் பற்றுவாய்” என்னிடத்தில் சரணம் அடைவது ஒன்றே என்னை அடைவிக்கும் வழி.

4.அந்திம ஸ்ம்ருதி வர்ஜநம் – தங்களின் மரணத்தருவாயில் இருக்கும் சரணாகதர்களுக்கு, என்னைப்பற்றிய சிந்தனை கட்டாயமில்லை. வராஹ சரம ஸ்லோகத்தில் நானே அறிவித்தது போல, உன்னுடைய அந்திம காலத்தில் நானே உன்னைப்பற்றிய சிந்தனையை ஏற்கிறேன். (நம் ஸம்ப்ரதாயத்தில் ஆசார்யர்கள் நமக்கு )

காட்டிச்சென்ற இனிமையான பாதை – நாம் எல்லா நேரத்திலும் நம்முடைய ஆசார்யரைப் பற்றியே சிந்தித்தபடி இருக்கவேண்டும்

5.தேஹாவஸானே முக்தி – சரணாகதர்கள் தற்போதுள்ள தங்களுடைய இந்த சரீரத்தின் முடிவிலேயே முடிவில்லாத பரமாத்மாவிற்கு கைங்கர்யம் செய்வதற்கான பரமபதத்தை அடைவர்

1. Shakuni Had No Animosity Against Pandavas, His Real Enemy Was Bhishma

Shakuni was furious that his sister Gandhari was marrying a blind man, and his first adversary was Bhishma, who brought the proposal of a blind man for his sister.

#Thread


In addition, there is another legend that states that Hastinapur's ancestors destroyed the entire clan of Gandhara. This is one of the reasons Shakuni vowed to end the Kuru line entirely.

So, you see Shakuni poisoning Duryodhana against the Pandavas to start a war and end the Kuru line by killing each other.

2. Shakuni Had 2 sons - Uluka & Vrikaasur

Shakuni's family was never given much attention because he is mostly seen in Hastinapur. However, it is true that he had two sons, Uluka and Vrikaasur.

Ulo-ok or Uluka wanted to return his father to Gandhara before the Pandavas came from Agyatvas, but Shakuni- did not go back because he wanted to sit and start the Kurukshetra war.

How Your Body Is Engineered?

In India, it was taught that you shouldn't sleep with your head to the north. Why?

#Thread


Because pumping blood up against gravity is harder than pumping it down, your heart is three-fourths of the way up instead of halfway down. In comparison to blood arteries that travel downward, those that ascend have a more refined configuration.

They become so thin and nearly hair-like as they ascend to the brain that they are unable to absorb even one more drop. Something will explode and cause a bleed if just one more drop is poured in.

The majority of persons develop brain hemorrhages. You are not seriously disabled by this, but minor injuries do occur. You might become duller, as people are doing.

After the age of 35, if you don't take great care to maintain it, your level of intelligence begins to decline in many ways. Your memory, not your intelligence, is what allows you to manage.

EVOLUTION OF CROWNS

The ancient Indian kings called a head crown as a Mukut and it would mostly constitute of a golden ornamental headgear like an oval cap with gems.

Sometimes it would also include a halo circle to show the divinity of the king

1/7


As it was considered that kings were appointment by the gods themselves. Example the kings of mewar considered themselves to be the ‘Diwan of eklingji')

But in most cases very few Mukut with halo effect have been found.

2/7

Samudragupta in the gupta era coin. You can see the helmet like headwear on him.

Till gupta era the solid golden head wear was used in most days of the monarch.

But since the onset of 8th century it reduced in usage and was now used only as a ceremonial headwear.

3/7


Whereas earlier the Maharaja had to wear the mukut whenever his court was in session.

Still mukut was being used prominently for ceremonial activities till recent times.

Maharaj Dahir of Sindh👇

4/7


But as times past the style of headwear also changed.

The kings mostly wore turbans ordained with pearls and gems while rarely anyone wore a true Mukut after 16th century.

AGAMA SHASTRA:THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE MARVELS OF HINDU ARCHITECTURE

Agama Shastra is a Sanskrit word that means the manual for worship, temple building, rituals etc in Hindu Tradition.From Sanskrit,agama means handed down by tradition and Shastra means a commentary or treatise.


Therefore, Agama Shastra is a collection of ideas that drafts the rules for worship, temple construction, spirituality and rituals. It has been a guideline for many Hindus from ancient times. It's a collection of Sanskrit, Tamil and Grantha scriptures that mostly contains...


...methods of temple construction, idol creation, philosophical doctrines and meditative practices. It came into being after years of assimiliation and from a variety of sources. Some parts of it are pre-vedic while some are post-vedic.


Hindu Temples are not just temples, they are the pride and identity of Hindus. They are the symbols of Hindu unity and their religious aspirations. Temples are the places of spiritual healing and are our connection with the creator almighty.


Temples are the priceless treasure of our History, Heritage ,Art & Architecture. Architecture that mesmerises and spell bounds you. And Agama Shastra is that very text which is responsible for such a mesmerising and spell binding quality and beauty of our Hindu Temples.

THE UNTOLD TALE OF THE LESSER KNOWN WARRIORS:JOGRAJ GURJAR & RAMPYARI GURJAR AND HOW DID THEY DEFEAT THE CRUELEST ISLAMIC INVADER, TIMUR LANG.

Timur Lang, was the founder of Timurid Empire. He was born in April 1336 CE, somewhere in central asia.


During his reign, he conquered Persia, Egypt, Central Asia and emerged as the most powerful and heinous ruler. He was a religious fanatic like the rest of the Islamic invaders who tried to invade India.

Timur Lang decided to invade India in 1398 as he heard about India's splendid wealth and had a desire to conquer India which his ancestor Genghis Khan couldn't do.


After Firoz Shah's demise in1388, Delhi Sultanate was in a state of political turmoil.During this time, Timur sent his grandson Pir Mohammad to attack Indian front. He invaded Multan&was able to defeat Iqbal Khan's brother but when he met with resistance,he asked help from Timur.


Iqbal Khan secured his hold on Delhi under Muhammad Tughluq after Firoz Shah died.
Timur provided the required back-up to his grandson with 100000 men approx. Timur sacked and plundered all the cities coming in his way &later in October 1398 reunited with his grandson.

“We don’t negotiate salaries” is a negotiation tactic.

Always. No, your company is not an exception.

A tactic I don’t appreciate at all because of how unfairly it penalizes low-leverage, junior employees, and those loyal enough not to question it, but that’s negotiation for you after all. Weaponized information asymmetry.

Listen to Aditya


And by the way, you should never be worried that an offer would be withdrawn if you politely negotiate.

I have seen this happen *extremely* rarely, mostly to women, and anyway is a giant red flag. It suggests you probably didn’t want to work there.

You wish there was no negotiating so it would all be more fair? I feel you, but it’s not happening.

Instead, negotiate hard, use your privilege, and then go and share numbers with your underrepresented and underpaid colleagues. […]

👨‍💻 Last resume I sent to a startup one year ago, sharing with you to get ideas:

- Forget what you don't have, make your strength bold
- Pick one work experience and explain what you did in detail w/ bullet points
- Write it towards the role you apply
- Give social proof

/thread


"But I got no work experience..."

Make a open source lib, make a small side project for yourself, do freelance work, ask friends to work with them, no friends? Find friends on Github, and Twitter.

Bonus points:

- Show you care about the company: I used the company's brand font and gradient for in the resume for my name and "Thank You" note.
- Don't list 15 things and libraries you worked with, pick the most related ones to the role you're applying.
-🙅‍♂️"copy cover letter"

"I got no firends, no work"

One practical way is to reach out to conferences and offer to make their website for free. But make sure to do it good. You'll get:

- a project for portfolio
- new friends
- work experience
- learnt new stuff
- new thing for Twitter bio

If you don't even have the skills yet, why not try your chance for @LambdaSchool? No? @freeCodeCamp. Still not? Pick something from here and learn https://t.co/7NPS1zbLTi
You'll feel very overwhelmed, no escape, just acknowledge it and keep pushing.

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.
