Sharad Poornima Significance

Sharad Poornima Significance

  • Post Author:

Krishna performs the Maha Raas on Sharad Poornima, full moon night in the month of Sharad, according to the Hindu lunar calendar. On this day Krishna is said to make gopis – souls of beings -- experience the ecstasy of merging of the Param tattva with the atma, soul. On Sharad Poornima, the moon at its brightest, its whitest and the moonbeams are at their curative best. While the sun gives growth and colour to the plants, the moon showers them with the medicinal qualities. And it also imparts ‘Ras’, juice, nectar to vegetation. In beings, moon imparts spiritual ‘ras’ that induces true joy of life. On Sharad Poornima it is at its maximum. Romanticism and creativity are at their best on this day. All evolved souls mystics, Sufis, poets all have spoken about the meeting of atma and Prabhu. Krishna made humans on this dharti feel the climax of…

Spiritual Mentor Meena Om who was also born on October 2nd talks to Satsangh about how she grew up in Sabarmati Ashram under the fond tutelage of Gandhiji and how his values have influenced her life…Meena Didi, You grew up in Sabarmati Ashram. Not only that, you also share the same Janamdin or birthday with Gandhiji.[Laughing] I have made my Janamdin into Pranam Foundation Day. Pranam is a movement like Gandhiji’s movement. Gandhiji liberated the country. Now, we must liberate the soul. This is where Pranam plays a role.Gandhiji sacrificed his whole life for the liberation of the country, but now our country is facing innumerable problems…Yes, there is so much ignorance, but to have the right understanding of this, we must be very conscious, aware and awake. The moment we are aware and rooted in truth, love, karm and light, all our problems will get solved. But, today people are…

Worshipping Shri Ganesh with prayer and knowledge is auspicious. Shri Vakratund mahakay suryakoti samprabha, nirvghney kuru mey deva sarvakaryeshu sarvada – with a rounded trunk, gigantic figure which is illuminated by a thousand suns, may all my tasks be accomplished without any problems. In the Indic tradition, any task, be it a new business or a holy ceremony, starts with the worship and igniting of Lord Ganesha. This puja is performed like a ritual. The underlying meaning associated with this practice is very profound. It is, therefore, essential for us to understand this, so that we can explain it to others, especially the younger generation, as it would make them realise and comprehend our culture and its Vedic wisdom in its true perspective. Only when a puja or ritual is performed keeping in mind the philosophy and understanding the hidden messages concealed in the forms of the various deities, devi-devtas,…

Mahasaraswati Mahalakshmi Mahakali

Mahasaraswati Mahalakshmi Mahakali

  • Post Author:

Be aware O’ being! Use your intelligence to read and understand the message of time and awaken your sleeping wisdom. You are steeped in so much laziness, so much comfort that you cannot even see the legs of your own bed on fire! There are four yugas, times cycles or ages and each yug has three symbolic reigning divine powers. First, when the yug just begins, Mahasaraswati is predominant. Since the yug is still in its infancy, learning happens, wisdom and knowledge of science are gained for overall progress. Till this time, Lakshmi is not so dominant. Earlier, writers, thinkers, teachers were not deluded by the opulence of Lakshmi. Saraswati is served by way of sadhna or penance. At the time of youth of the yug, Mahalakshmi’s benevolence is showered on this very gyan and dhyan and slowly Lakshmi starts dominating and Saraswati starts to be traded and the yug’s…

Independence Day Message

The physical body of Bharat got independence in 1947 yet we are shackled by chains of ignorance, indolence and greed. We barely understand the strength of our own true eternal culture. Now it is time for freedom of the soul. What does it mean? The qualities of the soul are to love all, spread anand -- bliss, always move towards light and spread light. If soul is covered with the darkness of greed and ignorance, then it won’t be free. We should be able to listen to the voice of our soul. For this it is important that the soul becomes swatantra. When the soul becomes free, our power of intuition also increases. The basic instinct to spread joy will also get enhanced.  At the moment our soul is slumbering. It is unable to listen to our intuition and to the conscience. We have to awaken our soul from this…

Guru Poornima Gratitude

Guru Poornima Gratitude

  • Post Author:

Every year, on Guru Poornima there is a frenzy of celebrations. But have we ever acknowledged the people who have taught us the greatest lessons of life? I make a humble attempt to express my deepest gratitude to those who have guided and shaped me. Let me begin by mentioning my parents, especially mother, who selflessly lived for our wellbeing. I remember her -- graceful and elegant, always adjusting, sacrificing and living for us four siblings. Never did she say anything negative about those who had pained or wronged her…. Her hard work, dedication and love for perfection always inspire, even though she is not with us in her physical form. My father, strong, loving, an upright policeman, a patriot and most of all a good human-being….hope that one day I can do them both proud. My siblings, whom I love dearly…. such incredible human beings! Nisha didi, Anshu didi…

We are heading towards the merging of Ved and Vigyan.  The people who practiced para methods in the ancient Vedic culture were seer scientists, the actual founders of Universal energy therapies and its derivatives. The basis of these alternative methods is also scientific. Modern scientific solutions or therapies are based on seen anatomy. Today scientific doctors have almost completed the work in seen anatomy only to realise that their questions are still unanswered. They have worked on all the seen organs which have remained the same since the human body came into existence, hence it has been easier for them to go on working on these systems learning almost everything about their functioning repair and cure through surgery and drugs. However, now they have reached a point of saturation. Taking advantage of this state, alternative therapies have mushroomed all over little realising that these too are not complete. They just…

Why are we attracted to someone?

Why are we attracted to someone?

  • Post Author:

Attraction is Natural Law. It depends on our inner evolution, which even the mind is not aware of. At the TIME OF ATTRACTION both persons have to be on the same chakras, as stated in the chakra orgasm mechanism (to be explained later). Sometimes that strong hold of attraction dwindles. This has two causes. Either we have experienced THE ORGASM OF THAT PARTICULAR CHAKRA WITH EACH OTHER OR OUR NEED HAS CHANGED –e.g. a person seeking knowledge is still searching hence continues to exist at the solar chakra while the partner’s desire has shifted to the higher chakra, after obtaining knowledge according to his capacity or has slipped down to the hara or root chakra. That is why two people cannot have the same intensity of attraction all the time. It fluctuates, this is Natural Law. Only people who are GROWING TOGETHER can feel the same intensity of attraction. The…
