  • Do you also feel unsafe?

    December 23rd, 2023

    No matter how much knowledge we acquire in life, there is always some fear in our mind. Some are afraid of death, some are afraid of giving up their family, some are afraid of lack of money, some are afraid of children, etc. Many fears live among us. All these fears, in some way or the other, create a feeling of insecurity in us.

    The more you start connecting with people, whether it’s on social media or in person, some way or the other, you’ll start to feel insecure. It is possible that after looking at someone’s beautiful face, you start considering yourself inferior to that person or you start feeling bad about someone’s house, car or property, now when so many things are going on inside you. , then it will be impossible for you to love yourself. We start feeling insecure by considering ourselves different from others, whereas it is not so, we are also like other people. Although this feeling of insecurity acts as a motivation to make oneself a better person. Let it be with you. Face it, accept it and that way you will start moving on the path of taking yourself forward. At any given time you have two kinds of things going on: one outside your mind and the other inside you. inner sanctum. At this moment, if you stop and think for a while, you will understand that the reality of the outside world is different from what is going on in your mind. Rather, all this is just the illusion and worry of your mind, which is holding you back. So now whenever you experience any kind of anxiety, just think once: is this true?

    One reason we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our inner feelings to someone else’s. We pay more attention to everyone’s appearance and do not even want to look at their real face and start comparing ourselves with this artificial appearance.

    Even people who are generally confident may develop feelings of insecurity because someone has led them to doubt themselves. If you feel insecure because of your height, weight, clothes, studies or any other reason, then let me tell you that you are not alone in this. That’s because no one is perfect in this world. We all make mistakes and then use that failure as our stepping stone to move forward.

    What it means to be insecure has nothing to do with who or what you are, it has everything to do with the perception of what you think people think about you. Insecure people don’t lack anything, but they have the confidence to know all the gifts they have to offer the world. Insecure people put too much stock in what others think of them because they aren’t sure they know themselves. How do I feel? If you want to stop being insecure, find a way to love yourself. Insecure people feel bad about themselves. This usually stems from their childhood or past experiences. Many times, despite everything going well, women start feeling insecure. Sometimes he feels that his partner is angry towards him. Sometimes he feels that the boss will be angry because the assignment is not completed. Sometimes he starts feeling insecure about his friends too. In fact, sometimes we start feeling more insecure towards those relationships which give us a feeling of belonging. Many times this feeling of insecurity makes us weak. The feeling of insecurity towards loved ones is just a confusion of the mind. These confusions can also be the result of old bitter experiences. Due to being cheated in love and not getting what one wants, negative attitudes start growing in the mind. Due to this, inferiority complex starts creeping in the mind. This creates a fear of rejection and a sense of insecurity develops. Children who have experienced sudden and unexpected poverty are never able to recover from it. They are unable to believe that when they grow up, they can earn so much that they will never have to face poverty again. Some children feel that their parents pay attention to them only when they get very good results. This thinking persists for years after leaving home. This feeling of insecurity gets attached to their identity. The feeling of psychological, economic and physical insecurity makes them like this.

    Parents should strengthen the sense of security in their children right from childhood. Make your children believe that whatever may be the situation, we stand with you. Even if your child does not excel in studies, it is possible that at some point in his life his name will be stung. Parents are the first school of the child. The support given keeps children mentally strong throughout their life.

  • Is Mundamala a symbol of love for Shiva and Parvati?

    December 23rd, 2023

    In Hindu religion, Gods and Goddesses are shown decorated and wearing jewellery. Mahadev, the God of Gods, is also known for his unique form. The appearance of Lord Shiva is considered mysterious. He wears different types of things on himself. This form of Shiva also has a special meaning. According to Shivpuran, whatever Lord Shiva wears on his body, there is some secret hidden behind it. Shiva wears trident, hair, snake, moon, mundamala etc. Lord Shiva wears a garland of Mund around his neck. Very few people know the story behind this.

    It is said that the garland of head is the gift of Mother Sati. Which is worn by Lord Shiva. It was Shiva who told Sati Mata the secret of wearing Mundamala. This garland around Shiva’s neck has 108 ends. Once Narada Muni asked Sati Mata that if Lord Shankar loves you the most then why does he have a garland of tonsils around his neck? On the instigation of Narad Muni, Sati Mata stubbornly demanded from Lord Shiva to know the secret of the rosary. When Sati did not agree after much persuasion, then Shiva told her that all the heads in this Mund rosary are yours. Shivji said that this is your 108th birth. Even before, you have taken birth 107 times and left your body. These heads are the symbol of those births. The Mundamala symbolizes that Shiva has controlled death. According to the Puranas, this Mundamala is also a symbol of the love of Shiva and Sati.

    After knowing the secret of wearing Mundamala, Sati Mata said to Shiva that I sacrifice my body again and again but you do not renounce then Shiva told her that I have knowledge of Amarkatha, hence I should not sacrifice my body again and again. Does matter.
    Sati also expressed her desire to hear Amarkatha from Shiva. When Shiva was narrating the story to Sati, mother fell asleep in the middle. Due to this she could not listen to the entire story. And she could not become immortal. And she committed suicide by jumping into the yagya of her father King Daksh. After Sati’s self-immolation, Lord Shankar created 51 Peethas from her body parts, but Shiva entwined Sati’s head in his garland. In this way, Shiva completed the rosary of 108 Munds and wore it. However later, Sati was next born as Parvati. In this birth, Parvati attained immortality and then she did not have to leave her body. The amazing love of Lord Shiva and Sati is described in the scriptures. The proof of this is Sati’s self-immolation by jumping into the Yagya Kund and the orgy of angry Shiva carrying Sati’s dead body. However, this was also Shiva’s leela because on this pretext Shiva wanted to establish 51 Shakti Peethas.

    The person wearing it always remains blessed by Shiva. This original lookalike unusual Munda mala is given by us with unusual mantras. According to Hinduism, Munda mala characterizes the fearsome aspects of Hindu goddess Maha Kali and Lord Shiva, while in Buddhism, it is associated with Tibetan Buddhism. Worn by angry gods.
