BC VEDICITIHAS
Saved by @SSSIndore

We need brahmin swayamsevaks for strengthening our Sampradaya in order to support&promote rest of the society. Those loukikas may switch to Vaidika mode in their attire,food practices, daily chores at least during weekends to start with.Narrow d gap btw real Vaidikas&loukikas.🙏

 Once all brahmins learnt Vedas&practiced brahminhood by performing yajnas,teaching scriptures&officiating rituals for traivarnikas. After British govt, majority of them switched to English edu. Only few families stuck with Vedaaddhyayanam&related practices. Eng eductd left āchara
Hence Vaidikas felt it difficult to mingle with them due to catching up with their anācāra practices.Vaidikas hesitated to take food 4m loukikas due to same reason. Today d gap is widened far. Now2separate entities they've become despite they need to survive with help of loukikas
Many Brahmin youth(incldng girls) though remain spiritual in gen natural to their custom, don't show interest in Vaidik practices but turn to modern gurus who don't stress upon traditional practices that kept them happy so far for generations.They may not be interested in rituals
Like Sraaddha, Nityapuja, Upakarma etc but attend dhyana,yoga classes conducted by new age gurus. When they quit their practices, Vaidikas won't get support to survive. They too wud quit Veda addhyayanam to turn towards loukika lifestyle. Slowly Vedas won't find learners.Extinct
These are the excerpts from the conversation that I had with Jagadguru Sankaracharya of @KanchiMatham .
This convo started with Archakas issue. Why Hindu society as such didn't feel disturbed when Govt brought this law. How it was construed as smthng concerned w brahmins alone?
@RSSorg works on broader Hindu ideals but believes in Varna-less Hindu unity. But all Sankaracharyas believe that Varnasrama system infact is naturally created by Sarveswara based on human nature thats meant to do only good to Hindu Society.
We shall understand it in right spirit

We are called Brahmins in general but we've broadly 2 distinct divisions among ourselves. Vaidika smātas, Agama brahmins(Sivacharyas, Bhattacharyars etc). Among smartas few are purohitars who officiate rituals for non brahmin groups. They're also called
Panchangakkarars. Traditionally all these3are not sharing relationships by marriage due to difference in kulacharas.But basically all 3hold mutual respects for each other.These purohitas are bridges btwn Vaidikas&non brahmins. But d gap happnd btwn Vaidikas&Purohits had prevented
Smooth relationships between brahmins&Non brahmins. Dravidian politics played havoc on the psyche of entire brahmin community as such. When ppl cudn't find their own feet firmly placed, it was impossible for any1 to fill d gap created.
Now we need to sit & firm up our commitment
& responsibilities towards each other & put up a collective face in front of rest of Hindu society. We had several intermediate layers as cussion which we've lost over a period of time. I'm working on it & to come out with a plan sooner than later.
When Brahmins reinvent their
Roots & follow& nurture it, they can lead the society again by their contribution towards the overall growth of Hindu society.
ब्राह्मणस्य शरीरं तु नोपभोगाय कल्पते।
इह क्लेशाय महते प्रेत्यानन्त्यसुखाय च।।
The body of a brahmin is not created to enjoy comforts but 2sacrifice itslf
To serve the society till its end only to reap the fruits after its death in heavens. As long he is alive, he should serve the humanity by all means. His vedic knowledge & performance of yajnas everything shall help the society at large. He shall accept strains gleefully &Serve🙏
When we talk on the need of swayamsevaks, obviously we need pracharaks too. Without pracharaks, swayamsevaks will turn unguided. Better brahmins in RSS serving the nation as pracharaks come back to community service to serve the same society but with broadened & deepened vision🙏
This is a commendable job done by 2 purohits from Telugu brahmin community. They've brought out a book on rituals in Tamizh script for TN purohits who know Tamizh script alone. Many non brahmin families use the services of these purohits for performing rituals in their houses.🙏
Our graceful Maharshis have drafted beautiful kriyapaddhati for non brahmin communities using suitable verses from Puranas. Kamalakara bhatta(400+yrs old) too has written paddhati for NBs.
Even Krishnapremi Maharaj had recently developed a book for all members of Hindu society🙏

“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. […]

The first ever world map was sketched thousands of years ago by Indian saint
“Ramanujacharya” who simply translated the following verse from Mahabharat and gave the world its real face

In Mahabharat,it is described how 'Maharishi Ved Vyasa' gave away his divine vision to Sanjay


Dhritarashtra's charioteer so that he could describe him the events of the upcoming war.

But, even before questions of war could begin, Dhritarashtra asked him to describe how the world looks like from space.

This is how he described the face of the world:

सुदर्शनं प्रवक्ष्यामि द्वीपं तु कुरुनन्दन। परिमण्डलो महाराज द्वीपोऽसौ चक्रसंस्थितः॥
यथा हि पुरुषः पश्येदादर्शे मुखमात्मनः। एवं सुदर्शनद्वीपो दृश्यते चन्द्रमण्डले॥ द्विरंशे पिप्पलस्तत्र द्विरंशे च शशो महान्।

—वेद व्यास, भीष्म पर्व, महाभारत


Meaning:-

हे कुरुनन्दन ! सुदर्शन नामक यह द्वीप चक्र की भाँति गोलाकार स्थित है, जैसे पुरुष दर्पण में अपना मुख देखता है, उसी प्रकार यह द्वीप चन्द्रमण्डल में दिखायी देता है। इसके दो अंशो मे पीपल और दो अंशो मे विशाल शश (खरगोश) दिखायी देता है।


Meaning: "Just like a man sees his face in the mirror, so does the Earth appears in the Universe. In the first part you see leaves of the Peepal Tree, and in the next part you see a Rabbit."

Based on this shloka, Saint Ramanujacharya sketched out the map, but the world laughed

1. Let's talk about Albanians. No, not THOSE Albanians, in the Balkans. The Caucasian Albanians, the pre-Turkish inhabitants of the land now known as Azerbaijan. 🇦🇿


2. Yeah, I know, there's also an "Iberia" there, which should cause even more confusion (with Spain), but let's focus on "Albania".

3. This ancient church in the village of Nij (or Nic), just south of the Caucasus Mountains, belongs to the Udi people, a Christian minority in Azerbaijan descended from the area’s pre-Turkic Caucasian Albanians. 🇦🇿


4. Nearby are the ruins of the Caucasian Albanian capital of “old” Gabala (Qebele), where I was given a personal tour by one of the resident archeologists (just for showing up). 🇦🇿


5. Only a very tiny portion of the extensive site has been excavated. “Every place you dig,” the archeologist told me, “you will find artifacts.” This whole field is a city waiting to be uncovered.

Thiruvizha Mahadeva Kshetram
#Alappuzha 
#Keralatemples 🚩

Thiruvizha Mahadeva Kshetram is located in Cherthala and it is believed that Prathishta of temple was done by Vilwamangalam Swamy. Paramashiva is Swayambhu here and is worshipped as Kalakandha which means who swallowed


Halahala visham to save the world during Samudra mathanam. 

It is a famous temple where people seek the blessings, for curing the Kaivisham. The poison given by someone to destroy a person is made to vomit here. This is removed by making them vomit the poison by a special


medicine.
The medicine for vomiting is made from a plant near temple by Palodathu family. The milk offered to Bhagwan is mixed with the extracts of the plant.

Story says that once this place was a dense forest, and a woman was looking for the presence of a tortoise in the pond


and the tip of her stick hit the bottom and it started bleeding in the pond. 
Frightened, the lady informed every one and after searching in pond people found Swayambhu Lingam inside the pond. Thus Prathishta was done here.

Om Namah Shivaye

Remembering Colonel Anil Kaul, VrC (Retd) on his 3rd Death Anniversary.

“It was October 12, 1987, exactly 5:55 pm as I was… coming out of the cupola of my T-72 tank on a steamy evening in an unknown place called Kokkuvil in the Jaffna district of Northern Sri Lanka.+


I froze in that confined space at what I saw. An LTTE militant stood at 60 meters aiming his rocket-propelled gun at my tank.

In a flash he fired. Probably having lost his nerve he aimed too low. The projectile hit the left mudguard of the tank, but for some inexplicable reason+


did not explode. It then hit the side of the main gun and then exploded on top of the turret, all in a fraction of a second. Before I knew, it seemed I had received a straight right punch so to say to my chin. I saw some blood appear on my left hand and there was a sharp drop in+

my eyesight.

Lt Colonel (now Lt Gen) Dalbir Singh, then Commanding Officer of 10 Para Commando, who was standing on the engine deck said to me, “Yaar what a close shave.”
