Garuda - Story of Vinata Suta

The race of snakes trace their origins to Kadru, the wife of rishi Kashyapa. Kadru bore a thousand snakes through the grace of the muni. Kadru had a sister by the name Vinata, who was also married to Kashyapa.

@VertigoWarrior @IndiaTales7

Vinata had a son by the name Aruna, who ended up becoming the Sun’s charioteer.

One day, the sisters beheld the celestial white horse Ucchaishrava flying in the sky. They entered into a wager about the colour of the horse’s tail. Vinata claimed that it would be white, while Kadru bet that the white horse had a black tail. @DivineElement

They agreed that the loser of the wager would spend her life in servitude to the other sibling. Deciding to ascertain the colour of the tail the next day, the sisters returned home.

At home, Kadru requested her sons (snakes) to seek the horse overnight and attach themselves to the tail so that it would appear black during inspection.

Whatever action you take, it is motivated by a want and your comprehension of that goal.

Krishna did not amend Arjuna's action when he did not lift the bow. Krishna clarifies his point of view.

@SanggitaT @Indigen_Apsara

Arjuna's heart swelled with passion with that realisation, and he picked up the bow.

This is quite useful in the workplace.

Never use spell check if you're mentoring someone. The focus should be on the process of thought.

You can get an MBA in the United States or anyplace else in the world, but all they teach you is how to spell check.

GITA is the best school to learn management.

Which election is more important, Lok Sabha 2024 or UP 2022?

It has been announced that by December 2023, the Ram Temple would be open for Ram Bhakts to do darshan and puja. 1/n

This suggests that LS2024 is a foregone conclusion for the BJP, and no one can stop it. So, the only way to stop the BJP in 2024 is to stop it in UP 2022. 2/n

So the Ram Temple can be postponed beyond 2024 since it cannot be done through the courts because that avenue is currently closed. 3/n

If they, do it, they will polarise Muslim votes as well as a big number of cowardly Hindus who want a hospital or a school in place of the Ram Temple. And believe me, there are a lot of such weak Hindus. 4/n

As a result, the key crucial target is UP2022. The question is how to go about it.

The solution is straightforward. 5/n

History and Significance of Rama Navami:
Rama Navami is celebrated to honour Lord Vishnu as Rama avatar, also known as Maryada Purshottam. He was born in Ayodhya to Kaushalya and Dasrath in Treta Yuga. It describes how the king and his three queens--

Sumitra, Kaikeyi and Kaushalya performed Yagna on the advice of Rishi Vashisth when none of them were able to give birth to the next ruler of Ayodhya.

After a yagna, they were given kheer blessed by Yajna, Lord of Yagna. The queens conceived soon and gave birth to sons. While Kaushalya gave birth to Rama, Laxman, Bharat and Shatrughan were born to Kaikeyi and Sumitra.

Lord Rama, who was the first in line to the throne, had to step back due to a conspiracy and king Dasrath had to send him for exile up to 14 years. He ruled the kingdom once he came back.

The Significance of the Festival is indicates the victory of goodness on evil and establishment of the Dharma to beat the Adharma. Ram Navami festival celebration starts with the Jal (water) offering in the early morning to the God Sun (A Deity) to get blessings from him.

LEADERS DO NOT SHOW THAT THEY PERFORM

An experiment was carried out to determine whether greyhounds could compete with the speed of a cheetah.

When the cages were opened, people were surprised that the cheetah didn't move.

They inquired of the race director as to what had occurred and why the cheetah had not moved.

"Sometimes attempting to prove that u r the best is an insult to ur self-worth," he says. There is no need to bring urself down to other people's levels for them to understand ur abilities, traits, & contributions. It is preferable to conserve ur energy for more worthwhile tasks.

A cheetah's speed is used to hunt, not to demonstrate to dogs that it is faster & stronger. Don't waste your time & energy proving your worth to people who simply don't have the skill set to recognize it. "Move along."

Edging God Out
Daniel Goleman coined the term "EQ" (Emotional Quotient) in the mid-1990s. “While computers have IQ & animals can have EQ, it is fundamentally a SQ that sets human beings apart,” 1/n

write Danah Zoher & Ian Marshal in their recent book SQ (Spiritual Quotient): connecting with our spiritual intelligence. 2/n

As a result, in order for the wheel of life to roll smoothly, all of the spokes —IQ, EQ, SQ – must move from gross to subtle, infinite to limited, & tangible to intangible. 3/n

Compassion, completeness, self-esteem, gratitude, the spirit of surrender, service, & the ego are all aspects of SQ. One of the most important aspects of improving SQ is dealing with the ego. 4/n

If not h&led properly, ego issues can cause problems in our personal, social, & professional life. As a result, underst&ing & managing one's own & others' egos is critical for healthier relationships.5/n

Madurai Shanmukhavadivu Subbulakshmi is a name that is synonymous with the world of Carnatic music. I still don’t know or to be precise a woman from a devadasi community is gifted with so much knowledge in music.

In general, we say Saraswathi kataksham and that completely resonates with her as she had been bestowed with Mata Saraswathi’s Kripa kataksham' (grace) that even a fool can become a scholar.

If one talks about devotional songs MS is good. And for the service she has done towards it is commendable and she has been conferred with Bharat Ratna for that.

MS is a tape recorder - can sing a song without deviation for n number of times. Voice is a gift from God. Creativity is developed by an individual.

Carnatic music per se is different from devotional hymns and I would definitely vouch for MS for her devotional hymns, and I stand with my views and as we have something Loka bhinna ruchihi which goes by People have different tastes.

Bhishma Ekadasi!.

This falls on eleventh day of lunar fortnight. This happens to fall between the month of Masi(magha) between Jan and Feb.

It is believed that on the Ekadasi day (11th Lunar day) after the Mahabharatam War, Bhishma, revealed Vishnu Sahasranama Sthothram to the Pandavas in the presence of Lord Krishna.

Thus this Ekadasi is celebrated as the birthday of Sri Vishnu Sahasranama sthothram. The sthothram consists of thousand names of Lord Vishnu. Each name in this sthothram is a divine revelation of supreme qualities of the Lord.

benefits of chanting this sthothram gets multiplied when chanted collectively.

Health and astrological benefits

Research shows that chanting of this Vishnu Sahasranama Sthothram soothe stress, anxiety, regulates blood pressure and improves memory and focus.

Consider this:

TEACHER is a term that we borrowed from the British. Let me explain the word TEACHER to you in this short thread.

You'll see how rich Sanatan Dharma and its mother tongue Sanskrit are, as well as why our educational system is so bad.

Sanskrit terminology for "teacher" is based on their particular abilities, and there are six phases or stages to a teacher's evolution.

1. ADHYAPAK is the name of the teacher who provides you with information.

2. UPADHYAYA is a person who imparts both knowledge and information.

3. ACHARYA is the name of the person who imparts skill.

4. A PANDIT is a person who has a thorough understanding of a subject.

5. DHRISHTA is a person who has a visionary perspective on a subject and teaches you how to think in that way.

6. A GURU is a person who can awaken your wisdom and guide you from darkness to light.
These are six distinct abilities of a TEACHER, to use the term in its broadest sense.

If you read the Gita, you will notice that the life journey is from Karm Yog to Gyan Yog.

This signifies that a teacher's teaching path is from ADHYAPAK to GURU, and a student's journey is from ADHYAPAK to GURU.

This is Sanatan Education in its entirety, which we have lost in the quest for degrees.

A man gently pulls a fully loaded bullock cart out of the mud in this video.

Don't you believe this is the current state of our country?

Two men are tied to a completely loaded bullock waggon, our nation, and a guy is sitting on it, the voter, wiping the bulls to move quickly while the bulls work their hardest at their own pace so that the bullock cart does not overturn and an accident occurs.

Not only that, but certain intellectuals who are merely social media specialists who lack patience are standing on the sidelines recording youtube videos yelling at the man to wipe more so the bulls go faster while their hands and legs stay clean in the muck.

This is the awful state of affairs on social media, and the virtual expert who makes money on youtube is trying to convince the public that these bulls are no longer useful and that we need to find a new one.

Modi and Shah are the two bulls.

It's time to stop paying attention to these experts.

Origin of the GodhA Sthuthi
******************************

The first slOkam of GodhA sthuthi arose from Swami Desikan spontaneously as he stood on a side street at SrivilliputthUr on a PradhOsham evening to find out the origin of fast approaching sounds of the mangaLa vaadhyams.

He was observing mounam (silence) befitting the occasion of the PradhOsham evening.

He was planning to go to ANDAL Sannidhi later for MangaLAsAsanam.

When he heard the sounds of Koil vaadhyams, he stepped out from the inside of the house, where he was staying to find out as to what was happening .

To his greatest surprise and joy, he saw the archA moorthy of ANDAL being carried by temple servants approaching him, as it was being carried on the backs of the temple servants.

ANDAL's normal processional route did not include the street , where Swami Desikan was staying.

On this special day , there was some theettu on the main street and the temple priests had rerouted the procession to include the street where Swamy Desikan was staying as an alternate route.

இது மிக புண்ணியமான வேளை ஆகும்.

பசு நடக்கும் போது எழும் புழுதியானது நம் உடலில் படுவது எட்டு வகை புண்ணிய ஸ்நானங்களில் ஒன்றாகும்.

பசுவின் கால்பட்ட தூசியைத்தான் ரகு சக்ரவர்த்தி, அஜசக்ரவர்த்தி, தசரத சக்ரவர்த்தி போன்ற மாமன்னர்கள் பூசிக்கொண்டார்கள்.

The Thrivikraman is the One who meassured the entire Universe in one step and was hailed for such an act.

Taapsee uses to get Rs 1 crore per movie, now she gets 8 crores per movie. She hardly had any endorsements earlier, today she is the most sought endorser, has over 12 brands, and charges 2 crores from each brand.

Diljeet Dosanjh hardly got a movie a few years back, was and still is a joker, but today he is getting movies and is a hero too doing independent projects.

Alia Bhatt is doing exceedingly well with the biggest projects and endorsements. She is the number one actress today associated with top movie makers, directors, etc ..

Why are these actors doing so well suddenly?

Anurag Kashyap hardly has any recent hits , yet is the top Director and producer, having a fortune worth 1000 crores!

The answer is simple, after opposition Namo and after openly speaking against CAA, NRC they are darlings of Dawood and anti-India forces.

They get all the good movies and banners in return.

Exotic Aniruddha Saligrama:
Aniruddha is the son of Pradyumna and the Grandson of Lord Sri Krishna. Lord Aniruddha's eternal consort, Usha, requested him in the palace of her father, Bana, where Aniruddha was captured & had to be rescued by Krishna, Balarama,and the Yadava army.

He appears as the Ruler of intelligence.

The Shila has beautiful impressions of Anirudhha on the front of the Shila in the form of layers pointing at one end symbolizing focus and compassion.

It is believed that the worshiper of this Shaligram is always governed by his wit, wisdom, and conviction.

Very good for students for memory retention & concentration.
People who are decision-makers are greatly benefited by the worship of this Shila. It also provides a Vaikuntha like atmosphere & improves tremendously the relationships in the house & at the workplace of the beholder.

The actions of the devotee of Aniruddha Shaligram is always governed by his mind and not by his heart.

The worshiper commands great respect in the society being a learned man and enjoys all the worldly comforts.

Mr. X Children in India would be on fire as a result of the sudden surge of nationalism in India and most other countries around the world as a result of the Olympic Games 2020.

Expect a slew of articles and tweets about how spending money on sports is a waste of money when the main issues are Covid, floods, hunger, and poverty.

Sending girls and boys from poor families to the Olympics for the rich's entertainment is an example of capitalism and oppression of the oppressed.

An examination of how much money the government spent per medal and how many vaccine doses could have been distributed with that money.

How Modi Sarkar has failed to provide us with even a single gold medal despite boasting about having done the best preparation for the big event ever.
