क्यूँ मनाया जाता है रक्षाबंधन का पर्व और क्या हैं इस पर्व से जुड़ी, माँ लक्ष्मी और राजा बलि की पौराणिक कथा

कथा भगवान विष्णु के वामन अवतार से जुड़ी है. भगवान विष्णु ने वामन अवतार लेकर असुरों के राजा बलि से तीन पग भूमि का दान माँगा, दानवीर बलि इसके लिए सहज राजी हो गये

वामन ने पहले ही पग में धरती नाप ली,तो राजा बलि समझ कि गये कि ये वामन कोई और नहीं बल्कि स्वयं भगवान विष्णु ही हैं. बलि ने विनय पूर्वक भगवान विष्णु को प्रणाम किया और अगला पग रखने के लिए अपने शीश को प्रस्तुत किया. विष्णु भगवान बलि पर प्रसन्न हुए और वरदान माँगने को कहा

तब असुर राज बलि ने वरदान में भगवान विष्णु से आग्रह किया कि वह उनके द्वारपाल बने । भगवान विष्णु ने राजा बलि के इस आग्रह को स्वीकार कर लिया और वह राजा बलि के साथ पाताल लोक चले गए। भगवान विष्णु के कई दिनों तक दर्शन न होने कारण माता लक्ष्मी परेशान हो गई और वह नारद मुनि के पास गई।

नारद मुनि के पास पहुंचकर उन्होंने उनसे पूछा के भगवान विष्णु कहाँ है। जिसके बाद नारद मुनि ने माता लक्ष्मी को बताया कि वह पाताल लोक में हैं और वरदान हेतु राजा बलि के द्वारपाल बने हुए हुए हैं।

तब माता लक्ष्मी के आग्रह पे नारद मुनि ने भगवान विष्णु को वापस लाने का उपाय बताया ।

उन्होंने कहा कि आप श्रावण मास की पूर्णिमा को पाताल लोक में जाएं और राजा बलि की कलाई पर रक्षासूत्र बाँध दें। रक्षासूत्र बाँधने के बाद राजा बलि से उपहार स्वरूप भगवान विष्णु को वापस माँग लें।

तब माता लक्ष्मी ने नारद मुनि की सलाह वैसा ही किया और असुर राज बलि को राखी बाँधी

Shocking Connection Between The Vatican city (Italy) & Shiva Linga

The Vatican city is shaped in the form of a Shiva linga!
This shocking claim was made by historian P.N. Oak who said that the word Vatican has actually come from the Sanskrit word 'Vatika'

and that Christianity has come from 'Krishna Neeti'.

We have often heard that all the religions have emerged from one Sanatana Dharma. It does not matter which faith you follow because ultimately you are praying to the same God

The connection between the Vatican city and Shiva linga is quite interesting.

The striking similarities between the two symbols of the world's greatest religions is sure to make your mind blow away. Let us take a look at the shocking connection between them.

The Striking Similarity:

Take a look at the picture above. You will see the similarity between the shape of the linga and the compound of the Vatican city. The pathway is shaped like a phallus. On looking closer you will find a tripundara (three lines on Bhagwan Shiv's forehead)

and a bindu incorporated into the design of the Piazza San Pietro of the Vatican city.

Vatican- What's In A Name:

The word Vatican has been derived from the Sanskrit word 'Vatika' which means Vedic cultural centres. Such words and a few excavations prove that Vatican was

बिजली के आविष्कारक - महर्षि अगस्त्य

राव साहब कृष्णाजी वझे ने १८९१ में विज्ञान संबंधी ग्रंथों की खोज के दौरान उन्हें उज्जैन में दामोदर त्र्यम्बक जोशी के पास अगस्त्य संहिता के कुछ पन्ने मिले।

इस संहिता के पन्नों में उल्लिखित वर्णन को पढ़कर नागपुर में संस्कृत के विभागाध्यक्ष

रहे डा. एम.सी. सहस्रबुद्धे को आभास हुआ कि यह वर्णन डेनियल सेल से मिलता-जुलता है। अत: उन्होंने नागपुर में इंजीनियरिंग के प्राध्यापक श्री पी.पी. होले को वह दिया और उसे जांचने को कहा। श्री अगस्त्य ने अगस्त्य संहिता में विधुत उत्पादन से सम्बंधित सूत्रों में लिखा:

संस्थाप्य मृण्मये पात्रे ताम्रपत्रं सुसंस्कृतम्‌।
छादयेच्छिखिग्रीवेन चार्दाभि: काष्ठापांसुभि:॥
दस्तालोष्टो निधात्वय: पारदाच्छादितस्तत:।
संयोगाज्जायते तेजो मित्रावरुणसंज्ञितम्‌॥

अगस्त्य संहिता :

अर्थात: एक मिट्टी का पात्र (Earthen pot) लें, उसमें ताम्र पट्टिका (copper sheet)

डालें तथा शिखिग्रीवा डालें, फिर बीच में गीली काष्ट पांसु (wet saw dust) लगायें, ऊपर पारा (mercury‌) तथा दस्त लोष्ट (Zinc) डालें, फिर तारों को मिलाएंगे तो, उससे मित्रावरुणशक्ति का उदय होगा।

पर अब यहाँ थोड़ी सी हास्यास्पद स्थति उत्पन्न हुई।

उपर्युक्त वर्णन के आधार पर श्री होले

तथा उनके मित्र ने तैयारी चालू की तो
उपर्युक्त वर्णन के आधार पर श्री होले तथा उनके मित्र ने तैयारी चालू की तो शेष सामग्री तो ध्यान में आ गई,

परन्तु शिखिग्रीवा समझ में नहीं आया। संस्कृत कोष में देखने पर ध्यान में आया कि शिखिग्रीवा याने मोर की गर्दन।

Ayurvedic Health Clock :

The Ayurveda Clock is a 24 hr guide that aims to nurture our natural circadian rhythm.

During a 24 hour period, one of the dosha (Vata, Pitta and Kapha) becomes more active at certain times of the day/night.

The Ayurveda clock shows each active dosha at its respective time and what activities we should do to best serve our mind, body & soul so we can adapt to our natural rhythm, offering us energy, vitality, rest and rejuvenation at appropriate times.

The Ayurveda clock is divided into six 4 hr cycles, three of which occur during the day and three during the night.

6 am- 10am- KAPHA time:

This is the best time for exercise as physical strength is great during these hours. Kapha is the most stable and grounding dosha.

If we do our exercise routine during the morning Kapha hours, we have the best chance of developing an enduring habit. If you feel lazy and difficult to get out of bed, then Kapha dosha is the culprit here. So, try getting up before 6am to avoid feeling sluggish.

10am - 2pm- PITTA time:

Pitta dosha governs digestion and appetite. Our Agni is strongest during these hours. So, eat your largest meal of the day during this time. The Pitta energy aids our ability to concentrate. We are most focused and alert during the Pitta times of the day.

The Kushana Empire was founded by Mahārājādhirāja Kujula Kadphises, a Shaivite Hindu convert from his ancestral Steppe religion of the Yüeh-chih. He was not a Buddhist, as popularly believed.

A thread on the Hindu Emperors of the Kushana Dynasty.

The Kushanas were part of a tribal confederation called the Yüeh-Chih that originally lived in the western part of the Gansu Province of China. They were pushed west by the invasions of the Xiongnu (Huna) confederation. Kuja Kadphises united all the five sub-tribes under Kushana.

Emperor Kuja Kadphises had converted to Shaivism, a Mathura inscription from the Tōkrī Tīla mound (Maṭ village) clears up previous confusion (Based on him being called "satyadharmasthita" or 'steadfast in the true dharma' people speculated he was a Buddhist)

This is incorrect.

The Mathura inscription applied the same epithet to Emperor Huvishka (satyadharmasthita) but explicitly says the Kingdom was conferred upon its founder by Lord Shiva (Sarva is the epithet of Shiva). This makes it clear Kujula Kadphises had adopted Shaivism & the Kharoshti script.

This also makes sense, when we realize his son, Emperor Vima Kadphises was also a devoted Hindu Shaivite (and in his coins we clearly see a trishulin ithyphallic shiva with a tiger skin).

So his son had just been continuing his father's tradition & upbringing.

Today is the 130th anniversary of the #WoundedKneeMassacre. On December 29, 1890, the 7th Cavalry surrounded a peaceful encampment of Lakota with Hotchkiss guns and slaughtered ~300. They were mostly women and children.

Those killed at Wounded Knee were led by Mniconjou Chief Spotted Elk, who was ill. Many were followers of Hunkpapa Chief Sitting Bull who was assassinated 14 days prior. They were invited to seek refuge with Oglala Chief Red Cloud at Pine Ridge. They were hungry, tired & cold.

The soldiers weren’t satisfied with gunning down the encampment. They chased down those who escaped, including little children & their grandmothers, for miles. Some ran all the way back to the Cheyenne River Reservation, through the night in the freezing cold, with bullet wounds.

Charles Eastman, the 1st western educated Oceti Sakowin (Dakota Sioux) physician, was at Pine Ridge during the #WoundedKneeMassacre. It was right after Christmas. A banner hanging over the wounded said, ‘Peace on Earth.’ The horrors Dr. Eastman saw that day changed him forever.

Those massacred at Wounded Knee were callously thrown into a mass grave. Soldiers proudly posed for photos with their corpses. They were awarded Medals of Honor for their part in the slaughter. Those Medals have never been rescinded, despite public outcry.

Act of 1871
This is Long but it will end with a BOOM

With no constitutional authority to do so, Congress created a separate form of government for the District of Columbia, a ten-mile square parcel of land (see, Acts of the Forty-first Congress,”

Section 34, Session III, chapters 61 and 62).
The act — passed when the country was weakened and financially depleted in the aftermath of the Civil War — was a strategic move by foreign interests (international bankers) who were intent upon gaining a stranglehold on the coffers

and neck of America.
Congress cut a deal with the international bankers (specifically Rothschilds of London) to incur a DEBT to said bankers. Because the bankers were not about to lend money to a floundering nation without serious stipulations, they devised a way to get their

foot in the door of the United States.
The Act of 1871 formed a corporation called THE UNITED STATES. The corporation, OWNED by foreign interests, moved in and shoved the original Constitution into a dustbin.

With the Act of 1871, the organic Constitution was defaced — in effect vandalized and sabotage — when the title was capitalized and the word “for” was changed to “of” in the title.

Navigation in Ancient India

#LongThread

Indian civilization has been without a break for the last few millennia. This means there have been external connections and indigenous maritime assets.

Among the remains, the maritime assets archaeology are much prized and cited, a dock being the most prized. It also precludes the requirement of knowledge of the seas i.e. a compass.

The very word Navigation is derived from the Sanskrit word ‘Navgatih’. The word navy is also derived from Sanskrit ‘Nou’.

There were Sanskrit terms for many parts of a ship. The ship’s anchor was known as Nava-Bandhan-Kilaha which literally means ‘a nail to tie up a ship’. The sail was called Vata Vastra, which means ‘wind-cloth’.
