Chinese and Indian cultures meet

In Acupuncture, the organs are categorized as Yin and Yang.

1) Yin organs' channels start or end at Wood element. (Wood - Energy Out)

Yang organs' channels start or end at Metal element. (Metal - Energy In).

2) Yin organs' channels start or end around the chest region.

Yang organs' channels start or end in head region.

If we combine these two, Metal is related to head and Wood is related to the chest.

 Let us come to Hindu Gods, mainly Shiva's family and Mahavishnu.

Shiva, Parvathi and Lord Karthikeya have metal instruments in their hands. It represents energy in and out through head.

In dhashavathar, we can note that all the human forms have a wooden instrument in their hand.(vamana - a wooden umbrella, Parashurama - axe, Rama - dhanush, Balrama - plough (kalappai), Krishna - Flute). It represents energy in and out through heart.

We have seen before that Shiva represents head (metal) and Vishnu represents heart (wood). Somehow they are matching here in form of their instruments.

More pictures with these instruments.

With this wood and metal thought, we can go to the other extreme. The places where the evils are removed, we can see a nail being pierced in a tree. The bad energy is sucked by the small metal piece, pierced and sent into the tree. The energy gets absorbed by the tree and sent to the cosmos.

Somewhere spirituality and the science of acupuncture are meeting.

Ups and downs of life

Pralaya means rising and setting. 

Coming out and going in.
Going up and coming down.

Blossoming and withering.

Daily Pralaya

In a day 

- Sun rises - reaches its peak (6 hours)

- Slowly comes down and sets (6 hours)

- Night starts - reaches its peak (6 hours)

- Slowly comes back to day (6 hours)

Monthly Pralaya

In a month,

- Moon grows reaches its peak (15 days)

- Slowly sets (15 days)

Yearly Pralaya

In a year, (Deva's day),

- Shukla paksha (growing phase 6 months) 

- Krishna paksha (closing down 6 months) 

In bigger terms the 60 years cycle repeats and 6 such years make 1 year of Devas.
1 year of Deva = 360 human years

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Hindu_units_of_measurement

In much bigger terms, the entire universe which is expanding will shrink and become nothing. Again will start from the beginning.

If we look at history, some kingdom rose up reached its peak and slowly vanished.

If we look for the timeline, it will match with one of these cycles.

For e.g. British rule in India was around 350 years

Mughals Rule in India was for nearly 350 years.

Guptas period was around 390 years.

Like this in our day to day life, if we look, ups and downs are happening.

The years of these cycles might match with the cycles mentioned above.

If we go up, need to be prepared to come down.

Today, we are taught only to go up, but coming down is unavoidable and natural.

If you have gone down, don't worry, you can come up.

Let us learn to face it and teach our kids this law of life.

Life is flowing continuously, every second, minute and day is unique.

The day does not get repeated. But a new day starts.

JaiGurudev!

Anunnaki means creator of atoms of gold?

Who is GOD?

Aaaa - is the sound of Generation. It is the sound of stomach where the energy gets generated (Brahma). New Birth also happens here.
Uuuu - is the sound of Operation. It is the sound of heart where the blood purification is done or the energy is maintained (Vishnu).
mmmm - is the sound of Destruction. It is the sound of brain where the old thoughts are destroyed and transformed to new thoughts (Shiva).
Aaaa + Uuuu = Oooo in Sanskrit (Guna sandhi)

The sound of Vishnu is important to maintain anything for a long time. (Health, Relationships, Business, job, Social harmony etc).
Today people can create new things, the power of Generation is good. Same way people can destroy and transform to new things faster, power of Destruction is also good.

But maintaining something in a good way for a long time is lacking. That's why 
Health issues (cannot think about maintaining good health), 
Relationship problems (cannot maintain a relationship for a long time, they keep changing), Business issues (cannot maintain a business for a long time, it changes frequently),
Job (cannot stick to one job for a long time, they keep changing jobs), Social harmony (cannot maintain the peace in society, lot of fights).

The reason could be lack of Vishnu energy or UUUU. So the sound Uuuu is needed today to maintain everything. 
Chanting Oooooo(2/3)mmm(1/3) can help us.

G- Aaa - is the sound of energy and enthusiasm (aatral) (Shakthi)
O- uuu - is the sound of Love and commitment (anbhu, adakkam) (Bhakthi)
D- mmm - is the sound of peace and awareness (amaidhi, arivu) (yukthi)

So GOD is within us. Only with energy and enthusiasm we can do activities. Only with love and commitment we can maintain ourselves. Only with peace and awareness we can transform or grow.  
After that only we can think about peraanandham or bliss or mukthi.

If we lack any one, we get stuck. For example, If we lack enthusiasm, we can't work, then commitment goes off, in turn peace goes. If we lack love, then everything is broken and again the peace is lost. If the peace is not there the mind gets stuck and cannot do anything properly.
 

It is scientific and experiential. We can check by loudly saying aaaaaaa and keep the right hand on the stomach. The vibration can be felt. Same way in the chest with uuuuuu. Without touching anything but mmmm sound, can make us feel vibration in the head.

So let us chant oooooommm (min 3 times to max 108 times) to have harmony within us and the surrounding.

 

Indian way of fasting with moon's growth

If we look at the thithis and auspicious days of fasting, we will be amazed that alternative days are given.
Means, if we eat well one day, the next day we should take mild food or need to fast.

Amavasya (no moon) -  fasting for Mother divine (Saaktham)
1. Prathama
2. Dvithiya
3. Trithiya
4. Chathurthi -  fasting for Lord Vinayaka (Ganapathyam)
5. Panchami
6. Shashti      - fasting for Lord Karthikeya (Kaumaram)
7. Sapthami
8. Ashtami     - fasting for Lord Bhairava (Saivam)
9. Navami
10. Dhasami
11. Ekadashi    - fasting for Lord Vishnu (Vaishnavam)
12. Dvadhashi
13. Thriyodashi  - Pradhosham -  fasting for Devas 
14. Chathudhashi
Poornima       - Full moon - fasting for Lord Shiva (Saivam)
Again the 14 thithis will be repeated. Except Sauram all the other branches of Sanathana dharma are covered. 

Pradhosham is a good time to dissolve all our dhoshas. One might follow one of the shanmathas (6 branches) and so will fast on the auspicious day which is once in 15 days. Like this, they had taken care of the health as a part of rituals.

Monthly fasting is mandated. So they gave shukla paksha (growing moon) or krishna paksha as the most important day of fasting.
E.g. Krishna paksha chathurthi
Shukla paksha shashti
Krishna paksha Ashtami

They were trying all the possible ways to keep us in good health.

JaiGurudev!

A thought on freedom and respect to females

In India there are two major practices of worshiping the divine is happening. Dhakshinacharam (in south) and Vaamacharam "(in north). 

In Dhakshinacharam, Females are not allowed inside the temples to do the pujas, but females are worshiped as divine. Because in the body they get impure blood which causes a negative vibration around them which will affect the temple. The females also respect the thought and they don't get into the garbagruham or go to temples during the periods. The rate of rapes is less compared to the other places.

In Vamacharam, Females are allowed to do puja in the temples at the same time they are treated as objects. The no. of rapes are much higher, even small kids are being raped.

We should give freedom and respect where we need to give and should not give freedom and respect where we should not. Females should also respect others views and agree to follow such norms for the welfare of the society without much argument.

We need to really think all the possible ways to reduce the crimes against females.

Who is Gayathri?

Any one knows the Hanuman chalisa? In Hanuman Chalisa, it is said :

"Yug sahastra yojan per Bhanu!
Leelyo taahi madhur phal janu!!

1 Yug = 12000 years
1 Sahastra = 1000
1 Yojan = 8 Miles

Yug x Sahastra x Yojan = par Bhanu
12000 x 1000 x 8 miles = 96000000 miles

1 mile = 1.6kms

96000000 miles = 96000000 x 1.6kms =1536000000 kms to Sun

NASA has said that, it is the exact distance between Earth and Sun (Bhanu).
Which proves Hanuman ji did jump to Planet Sun, thinking it as a sweet fruit (Madhu phal)..

It is really interesting how accurate and meaningful our ancient scriptures are..Unfortunately barely it is recognized, interpreted accurately or realized by any in today's time...
GAYATRI MANTRA"  the most powerful hymn in the world.
Dr.Howard Steingeril, an american scientist, collected Mantras, Hymns and invocations from all over the world and tested their strength in his Physiology Laboratory…

Hindus' Gayatri Mantra produced 110,000 sound waves /second...

This was the highest and was found to be the most powerful hymn in the world.
Through the combination of sound or sound waves of a particular frequency, this Mantra is claimed to be capable of developing specific spiritual potentialities.The Hamburg university initiated research into the efficacy of the Gayatri Mantra both on the mental and physical plane of CREATION...

The GAYATRI MANTRA is broadcasted daily for 15 minutes from 7 P.M. onwards over Radio Paramaribo, Surinam, South America for the past two years, and in Amsterdam, Holland for the last six months.

"Om Bhoor Bhuwah Swah, Tat Savitur Varenyam, Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi, Dhiyo Yo Nah Pra-chodayaat !"
"It's meaning:God is dear to me like my own breath, He is the dispeller of my pains, and giver of happiness. I meditate on the supremely adorable Light of the Divine Creator, that it may inspire my thought and understanding."

Tamil everywhere  :-)
Gayathri mantra was written or found by Rajarishi Vishwamithra. To get the darshan of the lord, he made five face-lamp of his body. In tamil "Kayam" means body. Thiri means thread in the lamp. A lamp made out of body is "Kayathiri" which later changed to "Gayathri".
A clipping of the scene from the Rajarishi movie -

Which is the first formed land in the world?

Great Tirunelevei and Thamirabharani

First Land -

The Podhigai hill and its surrounding is considered as the first formed land and in the lifetime of earth, this hill never went under the sea. Whereas even himalayas was once under the sea. The first man (Adham) who ate the wrong fruit and fell on earth, happened here only. It is said that even after everything ends in the world, this hill will be alive.

Language -

Sanskrit is considered as  Deva Language, from which all the other languages of the world were born.Tamil is God given language. Lord Karthikeya taught this language to Sage Agasthya near today’s Agasthyar falls. 

Since Tamil is the oldest language being spoken in the world, there are lot of writings which by chanting or reading itself can cure many Diseases. Also Lord Karthikeya is ultimate to withstand negative powers  like black magic.

Sage Agasthya & Ganga -

Sage Agasthya only had written Tamil or founder of Tamil language. He is supposed to be alive with his subtle body in the hills of Papanasam.  

Sage Agasthya saw the dried land and brought Ganga water in his pot from which Kaveri and Thamirabharani were formed. That’s why Garuda Purana says that only four rivers can dissolve our sins, Ganga, Yamuna, Kaveri and Thamirabharani. It is a Jeevanadhi, having water flowing always, Pure and tasty. 
Kailayam - Papanasam

       Papanasam is the place where Lord Shiva made Agasthya to see his marriage happened in Kailaya.Papa-sins, nasam-spoiled. It is the place where our sins get spoiled.Kailayam is covered by ice and cool. Similarly Papanasam is cool with Thamirabharani water. 

Kasi-Murrappanadu

  The Thamirabharani in Murrappanadu is considered equal to Kasi.It is called as Kasi Theerthakattam.

Nava Kailayam - Navagraham

Roma Maharishi wanted Moksha and asked Sage Agasthya.

He gave 9 flowers and left them in the Thamirabharani river.

Wherever Each flower stops, build a Shiva temple and worship, that will give you Moksha.

That way he built all the temples with the Swami as Kailasanadhar and Ambal as Sivakami Ammal and acheived Mukthi.

1.Papanasam-Sun

2.Cheranmahadevi-Moon

3.Kodahanallur-Chevvai

4.Shangani-Rahu

5.Murappanadu – Guru

6.Srivaikundam-Shani

7.Thenthirupperai-Bhudhan

8.Rajapathi-Kethu

9.Chendhapoomangalam-Shukra

ThiruppudaiMarudur

Surendra Moksha theertham in ThiruppudaiMarudur saves us from all the sins. 

Here Shiva’s Brahma dhand can be seen. Gomathi maa is completely made of Rudraksha.

There is long stone seen, which is supposed to be the Brahmadanda of Shiva. This cannot be seen in other temples.

This river and the hill have many secrets, which are not revealed yet.
