JWALAMUKHI TRIPURASUNDARI, UTHANAHALLI, MYSURU (KAR)
#bharatmandir

Jwalamukhi Tripursundari is believed to be the sister of Devi Chamundeshwari, the presiding deity of Mysuru
It is also that she represents the flaming mouth of Jalandhara, the demon whom Shiva crushed to death.

When Devi Chamundeswari was fighting Mahishasura, she observed that from every drop of blood that spilled out of Mahishasura, another demon was born. So she created Tripurasundari to ensure that no blood dripped from Mahishasura.

Tripura Sundari means beauty of the three worlds.
The murti was installed during Wodeyar rule. An utsava murti made of pancha loha is kept in the sanctum sanctorum.
Another shrine here is dedicated to Siddeshwara / Shiva surrounded by a beautiful wooden Mantapa.

Do you know?

Multiverse is mentioned in several of Hindu Scriptures.

In 1927 came a theory named 'Big Bang' which was a scientific effort to provide some explanation about how our Universe came into existence. It suggested that Universe started as a tiny, hot and dense...

...something that expanded rapidly from the singularity with a big explosion or Big Bang from which formed the galaxies, stars and the rest of the Universe.
However, the science in our Vedas explained these concepts since millennia. Rig Veda mentions Hiranyagarbha and Brahmanda..

...Visphotak which talks about a similar theory.
The concept of Parallel universes may be novel to the modern scientists but it rests very comfortably in ancient Hindu Cosmology. The Puranas are replete with descriptions of many worlds whose inhabitants are ruled by kings in...

...the human plane and Gods in a higher plane. The many Gods in turn belong to many different worlds and planes of existence. At the highest level of hierarchy are the trinity namely Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesha, ruling the divine Kingdoms. Brahma is the creator who dreams...

...the Universe into being, which is maintained by Vishnu. What Humans perceive as reality is in fact the dream of Brahma, misled by matter. Brahman( not to be confused with Brahma) is the ground of all reality & existence. Brahman is uncreated,external, infinite & all-embracing.

Today is Jayanti of Ahilyabai Holkar

She was a widow who became Malwa's greatest queen. Defended our country & personally led armies into battle.Never plundered anyone. Developed Malwa into a prosperous kingdom. Rebuilt temples destroyed by Mughals. Built Dharmashalas at Tirthas

Unfortunately, her memory has been blemished by inaccurate representations in modern popular media.

The serial "Punyashlok Ahilyabai" depicts her as ultra secularist feminazi icon who questions Hindu rituals & Pandits while patronising Sufis.

This is far from historical truth!

Ahilyabai was born on May 31 1725 to Patil Mankoji Shinde.

She was from Dhangar clan(classified as OBC today). While Dhangars were traditionally into herding, they took up arms & held several military /civil roles in various eras of history(especially during Maratha resurgence)

In 1737, when she was 12, Ahilyabai Holkar was married to Khanderao , son of Subedar Malhar Rao Holkar.

By the time she was married, fortunes of Holkar family had already waxed.

Malhar Rao was a Subedar of territory comprising 30 Parganas yielding a revenue of at least 7 Lakh

In 1741, when Ahilyabai was newly married, her father -in-law Malhar Rao Built Indore palace & ordered the kanungo to populate the settlement with a promise of protection to traders.

This began rise of Indore from its background as modest trading town Indrapuri to a great city

SRI CHAMPAKADHAMA SWAMY, BANNERGHATTA HILL, BENGALURU (KAR)
#bharatmandir

The shrine is dedicated to Sri Vishnu along with Devi Lakshmi and Bhoodevi.
It is built in an area full of Champaka trees.
As champaka flowers are offered to Sri Vishnu here, it is called Champakadhama.

It is believed that King Janmejaya had sarpa-dosha. To get rid of it, he took bath in the nearby pond. He emerged with a golden body and sarpa-dosha was also removed. The pond is called Swarnamukhi and believed to have curative powers.
Sri Vishnu murti was consecrated by him.

It is also believed that this forest area was the Dandakaranya where Sri Ram stayed in exile.
Some believe that the original shrine was built by Pandavas.
The pushkarni/pond is emptied once a year so that the rock at the bottom (which has image of Anjaneya) may be worshipped.

Bullish & Bearish Patterns 📈

Rishi Sushruta was a physician in ancient Bharat known today as the "Father of Indian Medicine" and "Father of Surgery" for inventing and developing surgical procedures. His work on the subject, the Sushruta Samhita is considered the oldest text in the world on plastic surgery

and is highly regarded as one of the Great Trilogy of Ayurvedic Medicine; the other two being the Charaka Samhita, which preceded it, and the Astanga Hridaya, which followed it. The Sushruta Samhita (works of Sushruta) is one of the most important surviving ancient treatises on

medicine and is considered a foundational text of Medicine. The treatise addresses all aspects of general medicine. The Sushruta Samhita mentions several surgical instruments that closely relate to the modern instruments used today to perform surgeries. The influential nature of

the Sushruta Samhita is supported not only by anatomical knowledge and surgical procedural descriptions contained within its pages but also by the creative approaches that still hold true today.

SIDDHI VINAYAK, HATTINGADI (KAR)
#bharatmandir

Hattiangadi was once Alupa capital and the shrine is believed to be of around 7th-8th c.
Ganesha vigrah is about 2.5 feet tall, carved out of Shaligram stone. It is the only Ganesha murti where His curly black hair is left loose.

This was the place of meditation of Sri Govindarama Yathivarya. He had predicted that the shrine would attain fame in next 300 years.
Ganesha is believed to grow in size each year and since it is believed that he grants all wishes so the title of Siddhi is conferred on Him.

The offering of singara (areca nut flower) is considered extremely sacred here.
If the flower falls from Ganesha’s crown during aarti, it signifies that wish will be fulfilled.
Sahasra Narikela Ganayaga (pooja with 1008 coconuts) is another special prayer conducted.

PETA: THE BUTCHER OF ANIMALS

@PETA, An organisation that is supposed to be protector of Animals, actually kills the Animals in cold blood.

An organisation that claims to fight for Animal rights, it's ironic that the @peta which runs Animal shelters in the state of Virginia, US has known to have killed more than 90% of healthy Animals in its shelters.This is the Organization which gives us lecture on Animal rights.

There were the pets given by the veterinary doctors to PETA hoping they will find better homes. Upon receiving them, PETA certified that they are healthy & adoptable but they were found dead in dump

the killer of Animals, abducts the Animals without informing to their owners but when owners go to the court, PETA pays fines worth thousands of

collucts funds from us for Animal Protection but do you even have a slightest clue that what #PETA do of that fund.

#PETA funds Arsonists, known criminals & terrorists who are known guilty in multiple

🌺श्री गरुड़ पुराण - संक्षिप्त वर्णन🌺

हिन्दु धर्म के 18 पुराणों में से एक गरुड़ पुराण का हिन्दु धर्म में बड़ा महत्व है। गरुड़ पुराण में मृत्यु के बाद सद्गती की व्याख्या मिलती है। इस पुराण के अधिष्ठातृ देव भगवान विष्णु हैं, इसलिए ये वैष्णव पुराण है।

गरुड़ पुराण के अनुसार हमारे कर्मों का फल हमें हमारे जीवन-काल में तो मिलता ही है परंतु मृत्यु के बाद भी अच्छे बुरे कार्यों का उनके अनुसार फल मिलता है। इस कारण इस पुराण में निहित ज्ञान को प्राप्त करने के लिए घर के किसी सदस्य की मृत्यु के बाद का समय निर्धारित किया गया है...

..ताकि उस समय हम जीवन-मरण से जुड़े सभी सत्य जान सकें और मृत्यु के कारण बिछडने वाले सदस्य का दुख कम हो सके।
गरुड़ पुराण में विष्णु की भक्ति व अवतारों का विस्तार से उसी प्रकार वर्णन मिलता है जिस प्रकार भगवत पुराण में।आरम्भ में मनु से सृष्टि की उत्पत्ति,ध्रुव चरित्र की कथा मिलती है।

तदुपरांत सुर्य व चंद्र ग्रहों के मंत्र, शिव-पार्वती मंत्र,इन्द्र सम्बंधित मंत्र,सरस्वती मंत्र और नौ शक्तियों के बारे में विस्तार से बताया गया है।
इस पुराण में उन्नीस हज़ार श्लोक बताए जाते हैं और इसे दो भागों में कहा जाता है।
प्रथम भाग में विष्णुभक्ति और पूजा विधियों का उल्लेख है।

मृत्यु के उपरांत गरुड़ पुराण के श्रवण का प्रावधान है ।
पुराण के द्वितीय भाग में 'प्रेतकल्प' का विस्तार से वर्णन और नरकों में जीव के पड़ने का वृत्तांत मिलता है। मरने के बाद मनुष्य की क्या गति होती है, उसका किस प्रकार की योनियों में जन्म होता है, प्रेत योनि से मुक्ति के उपाय...

ANJANEYA SWAMI, MULBAGAL (KAR)
#bharatmandir

Mulabagilu is originated from the word 'Moodalabagilu' in Kannada which means eastern door.  It is said to be the eastern gate of the Vijayanagara empire.

The Kshetra palaka Sri Anjaneya was installed by Pandava Arjuna.

After Mahabharata war, Arjun realised Hanuman’s on the flag that was tied to his chariot in war. Later Arjuna went on a pilgrimage along with the Hanuman flag. On the way he installed the power of Hanuman on the flag in the murti in Mulbagal (also called Shathaka vatpuri).

The murti is made on granite and about 12 feet tall.
There is a Venkateswara murti believed to have been installed by Maharshi Vasishtha.
A lizard is carved on the wall and people take its blessings as it is believed that it would free them from ills of lizard falling on body.

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

Shiva is an architectural beauty of world-class and is an important UNESCO Heritage Monument Site located in Thanjavur city, #TamilNadu. It was built by the famous Chola king Sri Rajaraja 1000 plus years ago. It is the only temple with a 216 feet tall tower in the world entirely

made of hard rocks - granite and its related Igneous rocks of Archean group (3 billion-plus years old). The tall tower had a huge, beautifully carved dome with symmetrical images on all four sides, weighing about 80 tons. In addition to it, there are 4 pairs of huge stone Nandis

(bulls), facing different directions at all four corners. The various carved images and the Nandis on all four sides are mirror images of those on the other sides. They have perfect size, shape, and symmetry. This great feat, plus the placing of so huge a dome atop a 200 feet

A thread of product management frameworks:

(this might be useful if you are a product manager, product leader, or founder)

Before we jump in:

Frameworks will not fix all your problems.

Used right, they should help you
1) better understand your context
2) create structure for problems
3) communicate ideas & solutions

I often use these frameworks in my product work, sometimes without realizing it.

1/
3X framework (Kent Beck)

A product can be in one of 3 stages
1. Explore
2. Expand
3. Extract

For product leaders this is the most vital framework to understand because almost every important decision should account for the stage your product is

Examples of decisions you can make more rigorously with the 3X framework:
- optimize for inputs, outputs, or outcomes?
- set more qualitative or quantitative goals?
- how to measure progress?
- what skills to look for?
- how to evaluate PMs'

2/
5Qs for product rigor

1) Who is the customer?
2) What is the problem/opportunity?
3) What is the main customer benefit?
4) How do you know customers want this?
5) What is the customer experience?

This framework provides useful structure for product proposals, reviews, etc.

शास्त्रों में स्वच्छता के सूत्र

हमारे पूर्वज अत्यंत दूरदर्शी थे। उन्होंने हजारों वर्षों पूर्व वेदों व पुराणों में महामारी की रोकथाम के लिए परिपूर्ण स्वच्छता रखने के लिए स्पष्ट निर्देश दे कर रखें हैं-

1. लवणं व्यञ्जनं चैव घृतं तैलं तथैव च ।

- धर्मसिन्धू ३पू. आह्निक

✍️नामक, घी, तेल, चावल, एवं अन्य खाद्य पदार्थ चम्मच से परोसना चाहिए हाथों से नही।

2. अनातुरः स्वानि खानि न स्पृशेदनिमित्ततः ।।
- मनुस्मृति ४/१४४

✍️अपने शरीर के अंगों जैसे आँख, नाक, कान आदि को बिना किसी कारण के छूना नही चाहिए।

3. अपमृज्यान्न च स्न्नातो गात्राण्यम्बरपाणिभिः ।।

कुंडी में चटनी रगड़ना क्यों जरूरी है?
भोजन में जो आयरन होता है उसको शरीर में absorb करने के लिये विटामिन c की आवयश्कता पड़ती है । जिस लिये सनातन आयुर्वेदिक वैज्ञानिकों ने चटनी का अविष्कार किया ।

सनातन आयुर्वेदिक उपकरणों जैसे कुंडी सोटे में रगड़ी गई चटनी को भोजन के साथ खाने से आपको निम्नलिखित लाभ होते हैं ।

1. आपको और आपके बच्चों iron के साथ साथ विटामिन c भी मिलता है जिससे आप स्वस्थ रहते हैं ।आपको केमिकल्स से तैयार ऊल्लू पैथी की गोलियां नहीं खानी पड़ती ।

2. आपको gym के गन्दी हवा में पसीना बहाने की जरूरत नहीं पड़ती । कुंडी में चटनी रगड़ने से आप की कसरत भी होती रहती है और आपके भोजन का स्वाद भी बढ़ जाता है ।

3. चटनी में आप आवश्कता के अनुसार आयुर्वेदिक औषधियों जैसे गिलोय ,कच्चे आम ,पुदीना, धनियां ,काली मिर्च ,अनारदाना , कच्चे प्याज ,मरुआ आदि डाल सकते हैं ।

4.जब आप mixer में चटनी बनाते हैं तो कई औषधियों में कई प्रकार के रस होते हैं जो केवल कूटने से निकलते हैं ।

उदहारण के लिये प्याज में विशेष प्रकार की झिल्ली होती है । जो प्याज पर प्रहार करने पर ही रस छोड़ती है काटने पर नहीं । इसलियें सनातन भारत में पहले मुक्के से प्याज तोड़ा जाता था । ऐसा नहीं है कि चाकू सनातन भारत मे उपलब्ध नहीं था ।

SHAKTA DHARMA AND THEIR ACHARYAS

Śhākta or Shakti or Devi pooja is not a new upasana. It is being carried out right from the time of Vedic period. Puran's tell us that Rishi Vashishth would worship Tara devi. Parshuram ji worshipped Tripura devi,

Agastya learned the secrets of Shri Vidya from Vishnu ji in Hayagriva avtaar. Bhagwan Ram, Laxman and Krishna too learned the tantrik vidya. Even Rig Ved 7.103.5 Sayan Bhasya also mentions about Śhākta/शाक्त(शाक्तस्येव शक्तिमतः).

Then we find that in the Harrappan excavations many figurines depicting Shakti were found. So in that age too, which was supposedly an urban city shakti was being worshipped. So naturally this tradition would be prevalent in rural areas too.

It is wrong to say that shakti puja originated from Bengal although it was popular there. Matsyendranath received this vidya from Maheshwari herself in Kamrup. We know that Shakti pooja is practised all over India.

Not much is known about the Śhākta saints in other parts of India in the middle ages.

Adi Shankaracharya wrote Pramanech saar named book on tantra and Anand lahri book on Devi strotras. Then there were Acharya Shankar, Bhaskar Rai, Laxman, Deshikendra, Raghav Bhatt, Krishnand,

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.

MA CHAMUNDESHWARI, MYSURU (KAR)
#bharatmandir

The fierce form of Shakti who slayed the demons, Chanda, Munda and Mahishasura-the buffalow-headed demon.
Ma Chamundeshwari is the Kuldevi of the Mysuru Maharajas and the presiding deity of Mysuru.

In the earlier days, the Hill was identified as Mahabaladri in honour of Shiva who resides in Mahabaleswara. It is believed that the hair of Sati had fallen here, so it is one of the 18 shakti peethas, also known as Kraunch Peetham.

Later, Devi incarnated here as Chamundi.

Devi Chamundi killed Mahishasura after a fierce battle which gave her the name Mahishasura Mardini. Mahishasur was a mighty Demon who could alter his feature from a human to buffalo and was born to demon Rambha and Mahishi.

It is believed that the Devi murti was established here by Rishi Markandeya. An image of Sri Chakra which symbolizes the Devi herself, is also worshipped.

The shrine is famous for a black granite statue of Nandi and that of Mahishasura holding a sword and a serpent in his hands.
