1 . In Sanskrit, Linga means a ‘mark‘ or a symbol, which points to an inference.
Thus, Siva Lingam is a mark that reminds of the Omnipotent Lord, who is formless.

2 . Original Siva Lingas were Salagramas, which were oval/egg shaped, representing the shape of solar system and also the galaxy.
They are still worshipped as Siva Lingas, after being placed vertically on a mount(peetham or Paanapattam) across many temples.

3 . This Linga is shaped like an egg, and represents the ‘Brahmanda‘ or the cosmic egg.
Linga signifies that the creation is effected by the union of ‘Prakriti‘ and ‘Purusha,’ the male and the female powers of Nature.

4 . Linga Purana says that the foremost Linga is devoid of smell, colour, taste, etc, and is spoken of as ‘Prakriti‘ or Nature itself.

5 . Siva Purana describes formation of Lingam as a pillar of light for which top and bottom were never found.
The night when this pillar of light appeared is celebrated as Mahasivaratri.

The Hindu Goddess Shakti—represents pure divine female power.
The word ‘Shakti’ means energy or power in Sanskrit. She is the creatrix, the great divine mother. She is the dynamic energy that is responsible for the creation, maintenance, and destruction of the Universe.

1. Parvati:
Daughter of the mountains. Goddess of Love, devotion, marriage, fertility, children, beauty, strength and power.She is the Divine Mother. She is shown with two arms and holds a blue lotus in Her right hand. Parvati is thought of as the calm aspect of Shakti.

She is the light in the darkness. She is the recreative energy and power of Shiva. She is typically shown with Shiva and or with their children. She has three children Ganesha, Kartieya, and Ashokasundari.

2. Durga:
Durga, in Sanskrit means “She who is incomprehensible or difficult to reach.” Durga is a warrior, protector form of the Goddess, usually depicted wearing a red Sari. The red represents action, destroying evil, and protecting humankind.

She is almost always with or riding her vahana a tiger or a lion. The tiger symbolizes unlimited power. Her main function is to preserve moral order and righteousness by destroying negative aspects of human nature such as selfishness, jealousy, prejudice, hatred, anger, and ego.

2 . Padma Shri for agriculture at the age of 105 years. Here is Coimbatore grandma R Pappammal, an organic farmer getting one of highest civilian honours in India. She owns a 2.5-acre farm in her village, and in the past, grew lentils such as horse gram and green gram.

3 . Now, she mostly grows bananas. Over the years, she has worked closely with Tamil Nadu Agricultural University. She would travel alone to their many farmers’ meets and implement all that she learned. A common question Pappammal endures is the secret to her long life.

4 . “I think it is what I ate growing up,” she says. “I cooked millets such as ragi, thinai, and samai in a mud pot with water and mixed this with curd or buttermilk and drank it with crunchy onions or green chilies,” she says.

5 . This was her breakfast before she headed out to the fields at 4 am. “I brushed my teeth with neem twigs and used no other chemicals,” she adds. “Instead of soap, I rubbed myself clean with stone.”

1. “64 are the instruments of enjoyments that tempt the individual soul (jiva). 64 are the divisions (kalas) within jiva; Sixty and four are the chambers of jiva’s chakras; Sixty and four; where Shiva-Shakti reside.“
Thirumandiram V. 1418

2. The Hirapur Temple of Odisha is built of coarse sand stones blocks . While its Yogini are curved from fin grained grey chlorinate. The inner walls of this circular pavilion or Chandi Mandapa,30 feet in diameter and walls containing 64 inches to house the sculptures of yoginis

3 .D origin of D Yoginis appears to be in small, rural villages. They R local village goddesses, grama devatis, who look over the welfare of an individual village. Thro' Tantrism, they were able 2 gain new forms & vitality as a group of goddesses who could impart magical powers

4. These village goddesses seem to have been gradually transformed and consolidated into potent numerical groupings of 64 (sometimes 81 sometimes 42) acquiring thereby a totally different character.

There are 4 main traditions that are associated with the cult of the yoginis 👇

5. (1)
The first tradition is the idea of the yoginis as aspects of the Devi or Great Goddess. The yoginis were said to be formed from different parts of the Devi, including: her voice, sweat, navel, forehead, cheeks,lips, ears,limbs, toe nails, womb, and her anger.

Sri Gurubhyo Namah.
Some tweets on Adi Shankaracharya and in particular the Guru Parampara of @sringerimath. [I had done this series earlier 5 years ago on account of Shishya Sweekaram].

Adi Shankara established the Sringeri Peetham as the 1st of 4 amnaaya peetams.

The four being
1. Sarada Peetam at Sringeri.
2. Govardhana Peetam at Puri
3. Kalika at Dwaraka
4. Jyothir at Badarikashramam.

He installed his 4 most prominent shishyas as heads of the peetams.

Sureshwaracharya was assigned to Sringeri as its head.

Sringeri is a corruption of Rshyashrunga giri.

Rshyashrunga maharshi [and his father Sri Vibandhaka Maharshi] did their tapas at this place.

It is at Sringeri that Shankara spent 12 of His precious 32 years!!

That gives you and idea how much He loved this place.

Rshyashruga maharshi had a horn on his forehead, a result of being born to a deer. His mere presence was enough to shower rains!!

Rshyashrunga was one who led Putrakamesthi Yaagam of Dasaratha Maharaj and which resulted in Sri Rama's birth!!

The p@stor slowly began to study the house and he learned that the boy's grandmother was the most influential person in the house. So he thought 'Corrupting the grandmother's mind can make the whole family Xtian as well as the whole village.

Cont 👇

The p@stor began to tell Grandma the stories of how J€$u$ cured leprosy of lepers, how He gave sight to the blind, etc..But after listening to him, the strong Sanatani grandmother said. A stone turned into a living woman (Ahalya) for our Rama when he touched the stone.

Cont 👇

She spoke of Rama setu where stones floated in sea just by writing his name on the stones and that they are still floating today.
The p@stor continued his efforts but all his tricks went in vain.

One day he had brought a cake from the church and he thought of offering it to grandmother but he was doubtful that she would eat it. But contrary to his expectation, she took the cake and ate it.

Srikanteshwara Temple,
#Nanjangud  #Karnatakatemples 🚩

Srikanteshwara Temple or
Nanjundeshwara Temple is a famous Shiva Temple located in Karnataka at the bank of river  Kapila. Temple is also called Varanasi of South. Nanjunda means one who has consumed poison.

Story is  related to the Samudra Mathanam when Paramashiva had to consume halahala.

Parashurama worshipped Mahadeva here to relieve himself from the curse of Mathru Hatya. While clearing the place to do poojas Parashurama's  axe hit the Shivalingam and it began bleeding, that

mark is still visible even today. Thus
it is also believed that Parashurama did Shiva Prathishta here

Sthala Puranam says that, once there was a demon named Keshi who disturbed the people in the area, after  getting blessing from Brahma Deva  and Mahavishnu. Mahadeva appeared

here and killed demon Keshi and blessed this place as Papa Vinashini. Whoever praying to Srikanteshwara or Nanjundeshwara, after bathing in the  Kabini River will be relieved from all sins.

Nanjundeshwaraya Namah

Read this. U may get it for free.
Short straddle :
What is ?? Sell an atm call and put.
Instrument: mostly bnf and nf.
Now there are versions of it.
1. Best version :
Enter around 9.15-20 and exit around 3.20. No adjustment nothing.
1/n.

If u r doing it on zero leverage(meaning u have full capital of around bnf's notional contract,i.e. 40000*25 = 10lacs), then u r most likely going to make better than fd or anything like that.
Simple rules : friday,monday, tuesday do for weekly. Wednesday and thrusday next week

So, gamma moves can't impact much.
Another better version of mahesh chander kaushik is to do it for monthly expiry.
Bigger premiums and never hav to worry about 200-300 points sudden moves.
2. 2nd version : have combined stoploss of premiums and re-entry criteria. Example :

Let say 40000 straddle is at 600. Sell at 600 and hav combined sl at 650. Many algos are providing this. U can even place stoploss in % terms. Like, if sold straddle at 400 and placed 10% sl, means if 440 combined premium touch, it will be stoploss.
Let say, in morning,

U sold straddle at 600 and it sl hit at 650. Now, u placed reentry at 600 with same sl. This time may be linear decay happens and u may cover morning's loss and make some profit.
3rd version : stoplosses at each leg and trail sl to cost type.
Example , 40000 straddle at 400.
