Gayatri Mantra, also known as the Savitri Mantra, is a deeply worshiped mantra from the Rig Veda (Mandala 3.62.10), one of the highest spiritual texts of the Sanatan Dharma, dedicated to Savitr. Savitr in Vedas is an Aditya, offspring of the mother goddess Aditi.

The spiritual meaning of Namaste is profound. Particularly in Hinduism, Gods are worshiped by closing the eyes and joining the palms in reverence, which indicates the recognition of their divinity.

'While paying obeisance to God, bring the palms together. After joining the hands

one should bow and bring the head forward. While tilting the head forward, one should place the thumbs at the mid-brow region, i.e. at the point between the eyebrows and try to concentrate on the feet of the Deity. After that, instead of bringing the folded hands down immediately

they should be placed on the mid-chest region for a minute in such way that the wrists touch the chest; then only should the hands be brought down.
The fingers should not be stiff while bringing the palms together because this will lead to a decrease in Sattva component from the

vital and mental sheaths and thus increase the raja component in them. By keeping the fingers relaxed, the subtlest Sattva component will get activated. With the strength of this energy, embodied souls are able to fight powerful distressing energies.
In the Namaskar posture, the

joined fingers act as an antenna to assimilate the Chaitanya (Divine consciousness) or the Energy transmitted by a Deity. While joining the palms, the fingers must touch each other because leaving space between the fingers will result in accumulation of energy in that space.

Generally Shiva is referred to as the ultimate man, he is the symbolism of ultimate masculinity, but you will see in the Ardhanarishvara form of Shiva, one half of him is a fully developed woman. Let me tell you the story of what happened. Shiva was in an ecstatic condition and

because of that, Parvati was drawn to him. After Parvati did many things to woo him and sought all kinds of help, they got married. Once they were married, naturally, Shiva wanted to share whatever was his experience.
Parvati said, “This state that you are in within yourself,

I want to experience it too. What should I do? Tell me. I am willing to do any kind of austerity.” Shiva smiled and said, “There is no need for you to do any great austerity. You just come and sit on my lap.” Parvati came and with absolutely no resistance towards him, sat on his

left lap. Since she was so willing since she had placed herself totally in his hands, he just pulled her in and she became half of him. You need to understand, if he has to accommodate her in his own body, he has to shed half of himself. So he shed half of himself and included

her. This is the story of Ardhanarishvara. This is trying to manifest that the masculine and the feminine are equally divided within yourself. And when he included her, he became ecstatic. What is being said is that if the inner masculine and feminine meet, you are in a perpetual

Some masterpieces have aspects that are hard to imagine. One such masterpiece is Brahadeswar. How did our ancestors manage to roll up a huge dome-like rock of heavy mass to the top of the temple? Is it even possible to defy the forces acting as angular momentum at higher

elevations? While looking at the temple's antiquity, and the great mass of the rock makes things quite unimaginable. It's hard to say that what sought of technology did they used to pull up such a stressful task with impeccable perfection. Brahadeswar temple dedicated to Bhagwan
