Myth & Realities of #GarudaPurana...🧵

There is an apprehension (myth) among people that, the text of Garuda Purana is inauspicious and hence cannot be read or the book be kept at home or should be read only on the occasion of death at home.
++

 People hesitate to keep this sacred text at their homes or read it because of its fearful subject matter. It is only a misconception due to the contents of Garuda Purana.

#REALITIES...

When it was explained/narrated by Paramatma #Vishnu Himself, how can it be inauspicious? ++
Even in #Bhagawadgita; #SriKrishna #ParamaAtma makes a reference to the law of Karma; death and its realities; reincarnation etc. But, we don’t consider Bhagawadgita as inauspicious; in fact we adore it. ++
Just because it deals with death and its aftermath it is incorrect to tag it as inauspicious.

In #BhagawadGita (Saankhya Yoga) #SriKrishna says that, " JaAtasya hi dHruvo mRutyu…"

(indeed, certain is death for the born and it is inevitable)
++
Death is a reality though we hesitate to accept because of lack of its knowledge. Death grins only at those who have no understanding and that it has no pain for those who understand its implications and working. ++
In fact, entire epic of Garuda Purana is in the form of glorious dialogue between Bhagawan #Vishnu and his Divine mount #Garuda, an upadesha from the Supreme God #SriHariSarvottama. ++
GarudaPurana is a #SaAttvika Purana. A script that mentions about significance of, #Thulasi; #Cow (Gau); #Thila (sesame); Kusa (#Dharbha) is always auspicious and we find all these referred in #GarudaPurana. +
Is it not good to read #GarudaPurana, understand its contents, when one is alive instead of someone may be kith and kin reading it after the death?

It can be treated as learning that enhances one’s spiritual knowledge to discipline himself and follow righteous path. ++
#GarudaPurana acts as a speed breaker for a person who is driving his life rashly. It can be treated as a caution for wrongdoers and acts as a direction to avoid committing sins. ++
One need not get scared with the contents of Garuda Purana either to read or to listen.

Everyone should read the sacred text of Garuda Purana at least once in their life time and there is nothing inauspicious about it and it is only an illusion. ++
Reading Garuda Purana will definitely change the mindset of an evil-doer or a sinner. +
Na #vasudevabhaktaanaam-ashubham vidyate kvachit
Janma-mrutyu-jaraa-vyaadhi-bhayam naivopajaayate;

No ill-fate befalls on the #devotees of Lord #Vaasudeva (#MahaVishnu) and they will never have fear from birth; death; old age and diseases; ++
#Merits of #GarudaPurana
As a custom we find in traditional Hindu families, parayana (reading) of GarudaPurana whenever there is a death in the family till 13th day ceremony (Vaikunta Samaradhana). Great merits are acquired from reading/listening Garuda Purana during that time.+
Those who narrate and the one who listens to this sacred Garuda Purana within ten days or even after the death of a person will get absolved from sins and is assured of happiness in this world as well as in the next world.++
Listening to Garuda Purana; one will get rid of sorrow; suffering and will be blessed with peace and prosperity.

Lord Vishnu would get pleased if the narrator of Garuda Purana is worshiped and it is as good as worshiping Lord SriHari. (Hari Preeti)
Listening/reading Garuda Purana during Mahalaya PithruPaksha is sacred and meritorious that pleases Pithru Devathas;

Donating the sacred book Garuda Purana to a Brahmana is highly meritorious.

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.

1. Let's talk about the effects of #climatechange on the world's forests, with a focus on the northwest of Canada. This is also about electoral #greenwash, and my duty as public servant and right as private Canadian citizen to speak freely about what I know.

2. Why am I compelled to speak? How am I free to speak? The answer is in the federal Values and Ethics Code of Coduct (VECC).


3. It can be career-limiting to criticize government policy when you work for government. Duty of Loyalty is very, very important. However, as VECC makes clear, it is not absolute. In fact SCoC has ruled twice in favour of citizen free speech as a higher ideal. In 1985 and 2001.

4. I am therefore perfectly comfortable showing you the scary things that are happening in the North under a warming climate. A failure to meet global GHG emissions targets is hurting Canada's forests in a way we used to think wouldn't happen for decades.

5. Warming temperatures and rising [CO2] could, in theory, help green the planet with more vigorous tree growth. But that's not what's happening. Don't believe the #greenwash. The positive effects are over and it is warm enough that we are now starting the into the negative.
