New year 2010

This year(2009) taught us a lesson as every year does.

Instead of enjoying the parties at hotels or having some time of enjoyment, its fruitful to take little of the time to think of this lesson. Don't enjoy the holiday of the new year in greeting, instead use the time to set the goals, see our future and the ways of making the dreams come true.

Think of the mistakes you did this year(2009), not to do in the new year.

and finally, A HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone

Know our Gods - Hanuman (part 2)

Mean while, during the exile of lord Ram, the abduction of Sita maa by the demon god Ravana made Ram a wandering monk searching everywhere for Sita maa. His search made him meet Sugreev. When Ram approached the mountain where Sugreev is living, Sugreev sent hanuman to find who he is. Hanuman disguised himself as a brahmin and after brief introduction, was amazed that he was talking to Lord Ram. Lord Ram helped Sugreev in killing his brother Vaali and made Sugreev king. Sugreev sent his army in all directions to search Sita. They finally ended up in the shore of a sea without any trace of Sita. There was an eagle at shore who saw Sita sitting in ashoka vana surrounded by rakshasas hundreds of miles away. There was no boat for them and were thinking how to go there when Jhambavan told Hanuman about his powers. Then, in one leap, Hanuman crossed the ocean and reached Lanka (kingdom of demons ruled by Ravana). He changed his form to the smallest and went near sita and praised lord Ram in form of a song. Hearing it, Sita maa gave her message to Hanuman. Hanuman while going, tought of teaching a lesson to these demons and appeared before them and created a havoc in lanka and was finally caught and presented before ravana. Ravana asked Hanuman's tail to be lit by fire. When his tail is lighted, Hanuman flew past the streets there by burning the whole Lanka and returned to Ram to inform him about the safety of mother Sita. Then began the arrangements for the war with ravan. The whole army reached the shore and the ocean god asked them to write the name of Ram on the rocks and they will float. In that way, a bridge is built within days to lanka. Ram gave final chance to Ravan to give back Sita but was ignored. This started the war against demons. Lakshman, the brother of Ram who came with him in the exile was hit with an arrow and was about to die. An ayurvedic told Ram that only 'sanjeevani', a herb in the Himalayas would save Lakshman from dying. Immediately Hanuman went to himalayas to bring the herb. When he reached there, he got confused among the different herbs present at himalayas. He then brought the whole mountain and placed it at the shore thus saving Lakshman. Ram won the battle and after his exile is over, returned to his kingdom Ayodhya. Ram gave gifts to everyone who helped him in his battle and mother Sita gave Hanuman a diamond necklace. Hanuman broke every diamond with his mouth and threw them away. Everyone was surprised at his behavior asked him the reason. Hanuman said that none of the pieces has Ram's name inscribed on them and thus are wasteless. They asked him about himself and Hanuman tore apart his heart and Ram was there!! Seeing it, Ram blessed Hanuman with immortality.

HANUMAN IN MAHABHARATA
An instance of Hanuman can also be seen in Mahabharata. Bheema and Draupadi were going in forest when Draupadi asks him to get a flower present in particular lake. Near the lake was Hanuman sitting with his tail on the way. Bheema asks him to take off his tail, but Hanuman wont let him go into the lake and asks Bheema to take the tail and put it aside by himself. Bheema tries in vain to lift the tail but couldn't even move it a little and then he reliases that the monkey in none other than his own spiritual brother and asks him to aid them in the battle. Hanuman then makes himself on the flag of the Arjuna's chariot protecting him.
Even today, the flag is a remainder of victory.



This is in brief the story of Hanuman. He is immortal and helps everyone in need. The total story of Hanuman himself is as big as the present Ramayana(translated) we get in the markets. The story tells us even of the color of the flower that fell from a tree Hanuman was catching to throw at the demons. Keep repeating Ram's name and you will forever be in the grace of Hanuman.

Know our Gods - Hanuman (part 1)

There is no person in India whom I think don't know Hanuman. He was a hero to children, inspiration to elders and a friend to everyone.

The story of hanuman begins with a curse on his mother Anjana devi. She is cursed to be born a monkey and will be relieved only after she gives birth to an incarnation of lord Shiva. So, she started chanting the lords name until he assured her that he will be born as his son. The wind god 'Vaayu' was attracted to her and soon a boy was born to Anjana devi and was relieved of her curse. But since the boy was born to a monkey, he got the monkey form.
The wind god ' Vaayu' was very happy seeing his son and arranged a function where he was named ' Maruthi'. He grew just like other boys doing naughty things. His strength is tremendous. One day, while Maruthi was sleeping, his mother went to do some work. Then hunger woke Maruthi and he was searching for his mother when he saw a very ripe fruit on a mango tree. It was actually evening sun shining between the leaves which Maruthi mistook as fruit. He immediatelyy jumped high in the sky to reach the 'sun'. Indra, the lord of heavens got panicked and struck Maruthi with his vajrayudh. The blow broke the jaw of Maruthi which gave him the name 'Hanuman' and he fell to the ground. Vaayu was upset seeing the critical position of his son and he stood still on earth. The living beings are dying due to lack of air. All the Gods then met Vaayu and granted him with boons. Indra gave him protection from all weapons, Brahma gave him the power to die at will, Kuber gave him the mace and other Gods too gave him the power to transform at will. Due to the mischevious things of Hanuman, he was cursed to forget all his powers, however, foreseeing his role in killing demon god Ravana, he was said to get the curse lifted up when someone reminds him of his powers.
Hanuman was student of Sun. The Sun god taught him the scriptures which Hanuman learnt in 60 hours. The Sun god, when asked some thing in return, told hanuman that the concentration with which he learnt his enough. But hanuman didnt accept, so Sun asked him to serve as a minister for his son Sugreev.

Journey of soul

In this topic, lemme introduce you to the journey of our soul.

It is said that every soul attains the form of 84 lakh forms of life on this earth before the human form is attained which will go on. There are three storage boxes for deeds of every soul, they are:
1) Sachitam 2) Prarartham 3) Agami.

Of these three,
sachitam stores the deeds
prartham is what going to happen
agami is what happened

So, how are the deeds stored ? lets see

Our deeds are stored in the five elements of life - air, water, fire, land, sky.

That is the reason one cant live without the five elements. You release some kind of vibrations for every deed which are stored in these elements. These vibrations will again return to you whatever form you attain.

See, some times the pujari says that you have problem with water and warns not to go near it. Reason is same, the vibrations stored in water

These five elements love God. So, by repeating the name of God, the vibrations will be neutralised.

Also, whats happening now, praratham, has relation with sachitam. the deeds stored in sachitam will start coming back to you in praratham depending on the situation. This can be controlled by the repetition of name of God. For example, say you are travelling on bike, some stupids came rashly and dashed you and both fell, but you are chanting the name of God, then you will get less injuries ( It really happened to my sir who told us of these things).
So, if anyone beats you, dont beat him, he will have one deed in his sachitam than yours which will be neutralised if you beat him.

But, one thing no one can change is agami. Agami is what happened. so, you cant repeat history. If you do some bad, you cant recover it. It returns to you whatever form you are born with. You will keep on attaining the form of human unless all the deeds are neutralised. Might be some unlucky souls may have to see animal forms again from human forms due to the worst of the deeds

My friends, I thus want you all to remember all these things before commiting bad deeds

You can comment if you got any doubts...
