Why does Bhagwan Vishnu and Bhagwan Shiv have different Namam's on there forehead. What does it indicate?

Tilaks are used to indicate one’s philsophy. Shiva’s tilak (Tripundra) is used to mark the 3 Vedic fires, while Vishnu’s tilak (Urdhva Pundra) is to show the God’s feet.

Hindus consider the area between the eyebrows is a very sacred part of the body and termed the Ajna Chakra or the third eye. It is around this place Hindus wear special marks that directly indicate their philosophical leanings. There are dozens of different marks indicating

different philsophical leanings. From a crowd, you can identify a random person’s ideology by just looking at his forehead.

Shaivites wear the Tripundra — three horizontal strips, Vaishnavites wear the Urdwa Pundra — a U shaped marking with a central mark that is either a circle

or a straight line, Shaktas wear a red dot or a line, Ganpatyas wear a range of head marking often with red sandalwood.

Why the Tripundra?
There are 3 types of holy fires to be kept at home in the Vedic tradition.
1Gārhapatya — a neutral fire that is kept in the kitchen and

used to ignite all other fires.
2Ahavaniya — a positive fire that is kept in the east for homas — celebrating the good forces.
3Dakshinagni — a negative fire that is kept in the south to defend from the evil spirits

Good and Bad Procrastination

Good procrastination is avoiding work with 0 chance of being mentioned in your obituary—like errands.

”Unless you're working on the biggest things you could be, you're type-B procrastinating, no matter how much you're getting done.”

#MahaPeriyava
There is an organisation in America called the Paul Brunton mission, extolling the British journalist who came to see the Sages here. Brunton had Sri Maha Periyava’s darshan and on his advice went to Ramana Maharishi whose gracious glance he received. Every year

the students who were members of this association, would visit Kanchipuram and stay on for 10 or 15 days, immersing themselves in Periyava’s blissful darshan. The Group had come as usual one year. One day, Periyava was seated under the Night-flowering jasmine (Pavazhamalli) tree,

which used to be in SriMatham in those days and was giving them the darshan. Periyava was sitting with his eyes closed. The American boys were seated around Periyava with their eyes closed in Meditation. It was very silent, not a whisper anywhere. The attendants Balu Mama and

Vedapuri Mama moved away and came out of SriMatham. A car came to stop there. A middle-aged couple and their three children got down. It was clear from the clothes they wore that the children were thoroughly westernised. They looked at Balu Mama and Vedapuri Mama who were

standing there. Old, discoloured dhoties, hair knotted in a tuft, stripes of sacred ash, rudraksha beads around their neck. The ultra-modern kids found them amusing. “Who are these ancients? Some saints around here it seems? Wonder if he too is like this? Dirty people,

नवग्रह समिधा के नाम 🙏🏻🚩
(नवग्रह के पौधे एवं ग्रह शांति में उनके योगदान)

भारतीय ज्योतिष शास्त्र में ग्रहों को अपने अनुकूल बनाने के लिए ‘वनस्पति’ की विशेष भूमिका रही है। उसके अनुसार पेड़-पौधों लगाने और इनके हवन-पूजन से ग्रहों संबंधी कई समस्याएं दूर होती हैं।

#Thread

ज्योतिष शास्त्र में ग्रहों की संख्या 9 बतायी गई है

सूय्र्यचन्द्रो मंगलश्च बुधश्चापि बृहस्पति:।
शुक्र: शनेश्चरो राहु: केतुश्चेति नव ग्रहा:।।

ऐसी मान्यता है कि इन ग्रहों की विभिन्न नक्षत्रों में स्थिति के अनुसार प्रत्येक मनुष्य पर इनके अलग-अलग प्रभाव पड़ते हैं,

ये प्रभाव अनुकूल और प्रतिकूल दोनों होते हैं। ग्रहों के प्रतिकूल प्रभावों को शांत करने के लिए शास्त्रों में अनेक उपाय बताये गये हैं जिनमें एक उपाय ‘यज्ञ’ भी है।

यज्ञ द्वारा हर ग्रह शांति के लिए अलग अलग विशिष्ट वनस्पति की समिधा (हवन प्रकाष्ठ) प्रयोग की जाती है,

जैसा श्लोक में वर्णित है

“अर्क: पलाश: खदिरश्चापामार्गोऽथ पिप्पल:
औडम्बर: शमी दूव्र्वा कुशश्च समिध: क्रमात्”(गरुण पुराण)

अर्थात्

1-‘सूर्य ग्रह’ की शान्ति हेतू ‘अर्क (मदार)’ की समिधा का प्रयोग होता है मदार की लकड़ी में उसके पत्तों व गाय का घी मिलाकर हवन करने से रोग नाश होते हैं

2- चंद्र के लिए

पलाश के पेड़ में ब्रह्मा, विष्णु व महेश का निवास माना जाता है। पलाश के सूखे हुए फूल देवी देवताओं को कार्तिक माह में चढ़ाने से ग्रह बाधा दूर हो जाती है।

इसके वृक्ष को घर से दक्षिण-पूर्व (southeast) दिशा में लगाना चाहिए

1/"Despite our Disneyland culture, some men around thirty-five or forty will begin to experience ashes privately, without ritual, even without old men. They begin to notice how many of their dreams have turned to ashes…

2/ A young man in high school dreams that he will be a race driver, a mountain climber, he will marry Miss America, he will be a millionaire by thirty, he will get a Nobel Prize in physics by thirty-five, he will be an architect and build the tallest building ever.

3/ He will get out of his hick town and live in Paris. He will have fabulous friends... and by thirty-five, all these dreams are ashes. At thirty-five his inner stove begins to produce ashes as well.

4/ All through his twenties, his stove burned with such a good draft that he threw in whole nights until dawn, drinking parties, sexual extravagance, enthusiasm, madness, excitement. Then one day he notices that his stove doesn't take such big chunks anymore.

5/ He opens the stove door and ashes fall out on the floor. It's time for him to buy a small black shovel at the hardware store and get down on his knees. The ashes fall off the shovel and onto the floor, and he can see the print of his bootsoles in the ashes.

WHY IS SHRI HANUMAN CALLED SANKAT MOCHAN

Sankat Mochan means remover of all sorrows or difficulties. There is no other devotee greater than Shri Hanuman, Who will be always ready to clear every difficulties. There are many instances in Srimad Ramayana which is the reason why Hanuman is also called as Sankat Mochan.

Shri Ram sends Hanuman towards to find Ma Sita. When Hanuman reaches Lanka & he witnessed difficulties faced by Ma, when ma decided to give up her life, Hanuman instills confidence & told her Ram will arrive at Lanka to rescue & defeat Ravan Thus Hanuman removes Sankat of Ma Sita

During Ramayana war, Lakshmana was seriously injured because of Indrajit. Shri Rama was very much worried as Lakshmana was unconscious. Rama sends Hanuman to fetch Sanjeevani Herb, who lifts the whole mountain when the herb couldn't be identified.

Lakshmana regained consciousness & sorrow of Shri Rama was thus relieved. Hanuman is the remover of Sankat ( sorrow) of all, who prays with utmost faith & thus called Sankat Mochan.

Subasish Pani revealed the most simple, yet successful strategy: 5EMA set up!

Here is a thread of 23 video clips on the 5EMA set-up that will save you hundreds of hours and available to you for no cost!

5EMA set-up: 🧵!

Collaborated with @AdityaTodmal

1/Don't hate on any style:

• Admire the fact that money can be made from intraday, scalping, positional, option buying, selling, futures, etc

• Try to understand which one fits you the most and apply that, then ignore the rest!

2/ System with a R/R of minimum 1:3:

• Here is a system that works for investing, scaping, positional, options buying and selling, futures etc.

• The R/R of this set up in intraday is 1:3 & for investing can go beyond.

3/ Why EMA over SMA? :

• Exponential moving average is used, as it places a greater weight and significance on the most recent data points.

4/ 5EMA moves very close to the prices:

• Mean reversion theory: Asset prices usually tend to go back to normal or average levels after an extreme price move.

• Prices routinely oscillate around the mean but tend to return to that same average price over and over.

Sushruta—Father of Surgery

By the sixth century BC, Sushruta, a surgeon, and Ayurvedic teacher, was thriving in the Indian city of Kashi.

#LongThread

In Kashi, where he worked as a surgeon, Sushruta studied medicine and discovered the causes and cures for various illnesses. He is well known for his novel approaches to rhinoplasty, cataract surgery's extracapsular lens extraction, anal surgery, and dental surgery.

However, little is known about his vivid descriptions of obesity, angina, and diabetes (madhumeha), among other conditions (medoroga).

He studied under Dhanwantari, the revered Lord god of the Indian medical system known as Ayurveda (the science of life). He was revealed to be Visvamitra, a Vedic sage.

He is credited for compiling the Vedic Sanskrit medical text Sushruta Samhita. The eight Ayurvedic medical branches are discussed in the Sushruta Samhita. Six sections and 184 chapters make up the work.

HOW TRADING FROM A CORPORATE ACCOUNT CAN HELP YOU TO SAVE TAXES?

Since I myself have started trading from a corporate account recently, I'll share about my reasons for doing so and how drastically it can help to reduce taxes.

1: Save taxes:

The prime objective was only and only to reduce taxes. There's no other reason to trade from a corporate account.

2: Form a Pvt Ltd company : I've formed up a Pvt Ltd company since that's what I was advised by majority of the people including my CA as opposed to LLP/HUF.

3: Claiming Expenses: This is the most beneficial aspect of a pvt ltd company.

You can literally claim any expenses in the name of the company. Some of them are:

- Rent expense: You can literally claim your office rent as an expense. Your registered office can also be your own house where you live.

Further you can also claim electricity expenses and what not.

The story of Maharishi Saubhari, the master of Rig Veda!

#LongThread

Emperor Maandhata governed alongside his wife Indumathi, their three sons Purukutsa, Ambarisha, and Naabhaga, as well as fifty daughters, from their capital city of Ayodhya. The guru of the Rig Veda at that time was a famous sage by the name of Soubhari.

According to folklore, he performed penance for a period of twelve years underwater while a sizable fish lived nearby. In front of the Maharishi, that fish was always having fun with its wife and young ones.

Maharishi saw this, which caused him to lose focus on his penance. He began to consider: "This fish is extremely fortunate despite living in the water. It is quite content to spend undisturbed time with its family.

While the life of a housewife is undoubtedly quite lovely, my austere lifestyle is extremely painful.

Judicial System of India (Explained)

In this thread, U will understand-
1. How Indian Judiciary operates
2. How judges of SC, HC and SS r appointed
3. How they can be removed
4. Role of Law ministry
5. Judicial corruption

1/24

Indian Judiciary is completely independent from Legislative (State n Central Govt). That means entire process of appointment, transfer, removal, administration is taken care by Judiciary only n there is no political interference in it.

Indian constitution gives 2 unique powers to Judiciary and that makes it super powerful
1. They r protector of constitution n they can go to any extent to protect constitution
2. They r the interpreter of constitution. Indian constitution is not descriptive, its one liners

so court have full freedom to interpret in whatever way they want n this power is misused a lot.
Like India constitution use the word minority but doesn't define what is minority
So they interpreted in whatever way they wanted

Hierarchy of Indian Judiciary
1. District courts : Session courts, metropolitan courts, special courts. In every city
2. High court ; 1 in every state
3. Supreme court : 1 in country at New Delhi

जीतने से पहले जीत और हारने से पहले हार कभी नहीं माननी चाहिए…
