  • What to do if you get bad instead of good?

    October 13th, 2023

    Today’s world is very selfish. Here all relationships are meaningful. Except the parents, no relationship lives up to expectations. But there is no dearth of good people in this world. Even today there are many people who risk their happiness for others. But it feels very sad when the other person does not understand their value.

    Helping someone selflessly is one thing but being selfless does not mean forgetting one’s own needs. You must remember that God has given every human being a body and mind, it is the responsibility of every individual human being to take care of its needs and happiness. You did not help someone so that he or she would help you in return or respect you. Or think about you. Your heart and mind believe it is right to do so, so you did it, then if later your work is not recognized or respected, then you should not be sad. If so, then it shows that you are also having some desire in return for those actions and this is the reason for your suffering in this place.

    Once a disciple started asking his Guru, Guruji, even if I do good work, people criticize me and even if I do bad work, they criticize me. You tell me how to live in this world. The Guru asked whether I should tell by saying or by doing. So the disciple said, try it this time and tell me. The Guru had three identical girls. Gave one of them to the girl disciple and said, hook a hook into it and catch a fish. The disciple said okay and he walked towards the river. Guruji was also walking with him. As soon as the disciple threw the wood into the river, a fish got stuck in it. The Guru said, apply force and take it out. The disciple used his full strength. The wood broke due to too much pulling. Guruji gave him another stick and asked him to use less force this time. The disciple said okay. He threw the wood into the river and the fish got stuck again, but this time the disciple did not use any strength at all. Due to this the wood went into the water and the fish took hold of the wood. The Guru said now I will give you the third stick. This time neither do you use force nor too much. This time the disciple used as much force as the fish. And this time the fish was caught. Then the Guru said, did you understand anything from this technique? Then the disciple said, no Guruji, I did not understand anything. Then the Guru said to the disciple, the way of this world is exactly like this. If you want to ask for good in return for good, this world will never give it to you. You don’t need to force yourself too much with this world. You just keep doing good to everyone in your own way, with your body, mind, words. Then don’t expect what you get in return. Good deeds yield good results.

    You need to understand that by doing something for someone while being capable, even if you make a sacrifice for someone with your conscience, that too you have fulfilled your moral duty and human dharma, it is possible that you will be rewarded in the future. You may get rewarded for it, but you should not expect any good results from it. Remember the saying of Geeta, do your work, do not worry about the results. This is the path that will not let you be sad in any situation.

  • What is the difference between science and religion?

    October 11th, 2023

    There is such a relationship between science and religion that it is essential for science to grow to remove the conservatism and superstition of religion. Similarly, development of religion is also necessary to end the monopoly and autocracy of science and to determine the goal of human life. It is also important that there is wisdom with science, otherwise there will be less development and more destruction. The coordination between religion and science is seen nowhere else as much as in India. Only this balanced and judicious coordination of the two can benefit humanity. Our sages years ago not only linked science with religion but also explained its practical knowledge. According to him, if science is organized and used for the welfare of human beings then it becomes a religion. This is the reason why all our religious scriptures like Vedas, Upanishads, Darshan etc. have science embedded in them.

    A section of people who consider religion as pomp and science as a miracle have come to believe that science and religion cannot co-exist, whereas the objective of both science and religion is the welfare of mankind. Then how can both be against each other? The difference is that the nature and scope of work of both are different from each other. Religion provides the path to salvation for the purification of the soul. Science facilitates all the concerns of the concept and facilities of evolution for living. Science alone is only half and cannot give satisfaction to man. It can give a better body, good health, longer life, more material comforts, but that is not all. This is just the surface of life, not the center point. Religion illuminates our soul and transforms us from soul to God. Science without religion can provide happiness to man, but it also brings him to the brink of destruction. People feel that religion is based on traditions and beliefs and science gives clear proof of everything, hence many people It seems that these two are opposite to each other. Let us understand what is the difference between religion and science?

    Science has the ability to deeply study all the living and non-living things present in this world and reveal their characteristics, shortcomings and evils. In short, science gives every small and big explanation about the objects, on the other hand, religion gives us subjects. Helps in knowing. Actually there is no reason for difference between religion and science, if any religion in the world refutes science, then understand that it is not a religion at all, because science aims at telling the truth of any object. And by breaking the old beliefs and superstitions of man, the truth is brought before the eyes. And as we know that religion is a thing beyond science, hence science is a branch of religion, religion is a big tree and science is a small branch of it. . Therefore, there can be no reason for differences between the two.

    Science is the study of things that can be perceived by our senses, while religion is the study of that which cannot be perceived by our senses. Science works on logic and evidence whereas this is not necessary in religion. Science is not a modern knowledge, nor is it a modern subject. Science is a physical subject, which searches for truth on the basis of materiality. Science is to know the truth of what we see and feel with our senses and how it works. It is like weighing and considering every thing in depth, there is very little amount of spirituality in it. Science rejects everything which it either does not understand or has no proof. While on one hand religion believes in God and goes in search of Him, science denies the existence of God. Science finds the reason behind every object and action, before modern science, there was science of sages in India, their research works are found in Vedas and Puranas, even today many things are absolutely accurate. Ancient science went beyond the senses and explored through meditation, so its results are still useful today. The points of science have also been considered in Yogavishistha and many religious texts.

    Modern science stops short here, its belief is like finding truth only through senses. Whatever our ten senses saw, felt and understood is the truth and what we could not understand and did not see is rejected by science. Science cannot think beyond meditation yet, in fact it is too late.

  • can happiness be bought?

    October 8th, 2023

    How can one find happiness in life?
    Happiness is not something to be found anywhere or in the market. It is within you and us. Recognizing the source of happiness is the pinnacle of spirituality. There is musk inside the deer itself, but its fragrance seems to come from outside and the person searching for it in the forest finds happiness either in his work or in relationships or external things. Some people find it impossible to live without drugs, while others hate drugs. It simply means that a person takes drugs only to feel stress-free. Some people can get relief from stress through music and some people can get relief from other things. Someone may also be addicted to accumulating money. In this way, a person keeps doing different types of purposes to get happiness.

    Actually, the person keeps running away from himself. He doesn’t want to know his truth. He considers only the pleasure he gets from material things as real, even though it is temporary. This is not happiness, but an illusion of happiness. After some time the person starts getting bored of it. We should not depend on any material thing to get happiness. Be it happiness or sorrow, we should remain happy in every situation. Although it is easy to say, it is very difficult to try. A person always tries to be happy, but after seeing the neighbor’s son getting higher marks in the examination, he starts feeling sad for his son. The mere mention of a person’s promotion in the office would send a shiver down his spine. After a long time, a Seth was walking towards the backyard of his garden, when he saw that the whole garden was looking sad and sad. All the trees and plants looked withered and withered. The Seth got worried and to find out the reason, he examined each and every tree and plant. He started asking different questions. The oak tree said, he is dying because he is not as tall as the cedar. Seth looked at the cedar, he was also sad and silent, his branches were also bent, he said, what is the point of being tall? It happened that I am not able to give fruits to the grapes like the vines. Children would come to him, caress him, play with him, and he would give sweet grapes in return. But when Seth turned his eyes towards the grape vines, his face was also sad. Seth said why sister Lata, what complaint do you have.
    Lata burst out and said, Do I have beauty like a rose? Nor do I have a fragrance like that. Then you tell me, what should I do if I do not remain sad. But rose also had a complaint, why there are thorns in its body..?
    Seth moved ahead with a rejected heart. Then he saw a Gulmohar tree standing proudly, looking proud, he saw that its yellow leaves were flaunting from its branches swaying in the wind. It was shining distinctly from the rays of the sun from above. It seemed as if he had no scope for Ranjo’s sorrow. Seth asked him, This is a very strange thing, Gulmohar, each tree is different from the other, the plants are sad, silent and full of complaints, how are you so happy? Gulmohar said, Seth ji, all the other trees and plants are unhappy by comparing Sanvay with others instead of seeing their own merits. Whereas I believe that if you have given me a place in your garden, you must have given some thought. You must have impressed me by my qualities. I do my work well. I am not jealous of anyone. I am happy in my abilities and qualities. Others may have something unique, but what I have, others also do not have. And this feeling is the reason for my happiness. , I walk thinking that there must be something special in me that Seth ji has selected me. I do my best work, I keep making my presence felt well. That’s why I am happy. That’s why I also look fresh.
    Seth saw great wisdom in Gulmohar’s words. Why is the world not being satisfied with itself and burning in jealousy and hatred? Why don’t people become elevated by further enhancing what is within them?

    Actually, happiness does not come from external things, it is not easy to assimilate this fact. The importance of spiritual practice has been explained in our religious philosophy only to make the encounter with the truth easier. The impurities within are gradually eliminated through this. The misconceptions that have been formed about God that God is responsible for our happiness or sorrow, are also proven wrong with time. Meditation, bhajan, satsang – all these are the paths of spiritual practice. If a stone is continuously thrown in a lake, waves keep rising. In such a situation there is never a chance to see the bottom. Human nature is made up of Satva, Raja and Tama gunas. When a person is busy in lust, virtuous thoughts cannot come to his mind. You will have to give yourself time for this

  • Why do people born at the same time get different destinies?

    October 8th, 2023

    People often ask a question to scholars that why do not all people born on the same day and at the same time have the same fate? Some are born in a rich family and some are born in a poor family. Some are born healthy and some with serious diseases in their body. Some live long and some live short.

    The answer to this question has been presented very beautifully in the illustrations through the story of a king. Every living being’s destiny i.e. the karma of the previous birth is different and he has to suffer the effects of the same in his next birth. To check the truth, a king called a meeting of learned astrologers and asked – According to my horoscope, I have a chance of becoming a king, but at the same time and moment in which I was born, many people would have been born who would have become kings. Couldn’t make it. Why? What is the reason for this? No one had an answer to this question of the king. There was silence in the assembly. Then an elder stood up from the middle of the gathering and said – Maharaj, no one here has the answer to your question but I will tell you how you will get the answer to your question. The king started listening carefully to the old man. The old man said – If you go alone to a dense forest far away from here, you will meet a Mahatma, he can answer your question. The king, filled with curiosity, went into the dense forest alone as per the advice of the old man.

    After traveling for hours, he saw a Mahatma in the forest, who was sitting near a pile of fire and eating embers. As soon as the frightened king reached the Mahatma, the Mahatma scolded him and said that I do not have time to answer your question, I am forced by my hunger. There is another Mahatma ahead of here among the hills, you can get the answer from him. The king’s curiosity increased further. The king moved towards the hills. It became quite dark while walking. After walking for miles on the hills, the king saw the Mahatma. Mahatma was eating his own flesh by scratching it with tongs. As soon as the Mahatma saw the king, he scolded him and said – I am restless due to hunger. I don’t have time to answer your question. Go ahead, on the other side of the hills, among the tribals, a child is going to be born who will live only for five minutes. Reach before sunrise, the boy can answer. The king quickly moved towards the village. The king reached the tribal couple’s house before sunrise and ordered that as soon as the child was born, he should be presented before me along with the umbilical cord. After waiting for some time the child was born and he was brought before the king. As soon as he saw the king, the child said laughingly – King, I also do not have time, but still listen to your answer.

    You, I and the two Mahatmas with whom you have come, all four of us were brother princes seven lives ago. While hunting, we got lost in the forest. After wandering hungry and thirsty for three days, we suddenly found a bundle of flour in the forest. Somehow we baked four chapattis with that flour and were about to take our chapattis and sit down to eat when a Mahatma arrived there suffering from hunger and thirst. He said to the brother who was eating embers, Son, I have been hungry for ten days. Give me some of your bread so that my life can be saved. On hearing this, Bhaiya said angrily – If I give it to you, will I eat fire? Let’s run away from here.

    After this, when the Mahatma asked for bread from the meat-eating brother, he also scolded the Mahatma and sent him away saying that if I give you my bread, will I tear off my flesh and eat it?
    The Mahatma, helpless due to hunger, came to me. Begged for bread, but I also chased them away and said that if I give you my bread, will I die of hunger? Mahatma reached to you with the last hope. I also appealed to you for mercy. With a very happy heart, you gave half of your bread to the Mahatma with respect. Mahatma ji was very happy after getting the bread and while leaving he said – May your future flourish with your actions and behaviour. The child said – On the basis of this incident, today all four of us are suffering our respective karmas. Many creatures are born on earth at one time, but everyone has a different destiny which shapes their fate. Saying this, the child’s breathing stopped.

    The king proceeded towards his royal palace and became convinced that astrology is basically the science of duty and behavior. Hence, the fate of a person is different. Here the logic that cuts against it arises that the planetary positions of birth are based on the accumulated karmas only. And in those circumstances, the fate of the person born is determined. When our karma itself is not the same, then how can our fate be the same. Every human being is different in himself. The experiences of every person born in his previous births are different. Their memories are different, their struggles are different, their marriages are different, even if they are the same in this birth, on the basis of which their concept and personality are different. According to those personalities, the memories stored in their subconscious are different. The functioning of the subconscious is different. As Hindu followers know that the soul is immortal, it never dies, the body changes. So, when the soul gets separated from the body, the memories of the soul do not disappear completely. Memories of the subconscious soul. If the memories of the soul had ended then there would be no ancestors, nor would they remember their clan. There would be no memories of ghosts and they would not be reacting separately. Had he not been guiding the followers and disciples, no child would have told about his previous life even after leaving his body. In this way, these memories remain connected with the person’s soul and remain safe in the subconscious after birth. Sometimes a dream occurs. They show some place or scene and after a few days the person realizes that hey, I have been here before in a dream. Or suddenly he feels that hey, I have been here before, even though I had never had a dream. This is from a previous life. There are memories which are safe in the subconscious.

    It is said that due to the principle of karma there is a difference in the fate of twins. Because a person has to suffer the consequences of his deeds in the next life. The same thing applies to twins also. Even though there is a difference of a few minutes in their birth time, the actions done by them take them in different directions. In the horoscope of twins, especially the place of birth, date of birth and day are similar. But there is a difference in appearance, ideologies, desires and incidents happening with children. Not only this, the personality of both is also different.

  • What are the characteristics of Lord Ganesha’s body parts?

    October 7th, 2023

    Shri Vinayak, Gajanan is described as Adi Dev, similar to all the three gods Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh. Before worshiping any god for any successful work. There is a mythological tradition of worshiping Shri Ganapati i.e. worshiping Ganapati. Ganapati is called Mangalmurti because blessings and boons are present in every part of his body, which gives the message of living life in the right direction. Lambodar showers blessings on the devotees from every part. That is why he is called the God of auspiciousness. Let us tell you the importance of different parts of Lord Ganesha.

    Ganesh ji’s ears are big like soup, hence they are also called Gajakarna and Soupkarna. Gaja’s ears are huge, exactly the size of soup. One special thing about these is that the elephants keep moving their ears in the air. There is a deep science behind this. The elephant’s skin is thick due to which the blood is not able to be cooled by the outside air and Gajraj cools his blood by passing it through the fine veins of his ears and stirring it. This creates prudence and patience in them and prevents them from getting angry. That’s why Shri Ganapati is the god of discretion and does not get angry very easily. Moving the ear of the Lord of Wisdom means that you concentrate on listening. It also means that Ganapati is always eager to listen to his devotees. According to organ science, people with long ears are lucky and long lived. One of the secrets of Lord Ganesha’s long ears is that he listens to everyone.

    big head of ganpati,
    Lord Ganesha takes decisions with wisdom and discretion. By seeing the head of Ganapati, Gajvinayak gets the boon of being intelligent and prudent. Besides this, it also creates the feeling that the devotee can take correct decisions between right and wrong using his logical power. There is an example of this in the stories of Ganapati also.

    The beneficial trunk of Lord Ganesha,
    Gajanan’s trunk always keeps shaking. The trunk always indicates to be active every moment. One never has to face sorrow and poverty by seeing the trunk of Lord Ganesha. The sight of Gajanana’s trunk gives the devotees the boon of always being alert and active. The trunk of Lord Ganesha is sometimes on the right and sometimes on the left.
    In the scriptures, the direction of Lord Ganesha’s trunk has also been given different significance. It is believed that those who want happiness and prosperity should worship Ganesha with the trunk on the right side. To defeat the enemy and attain wealth, worshiping Lord Ganesha with the trunk turned towards the left is beneficial.

    Big belly of Lord Ganesha,
    Ganpati’s stomach is very big. That is why he is also called Lambodar. By seeing the big stomach of Ganapati, devotees develop the quality of digesting every good and bad thing. The huge stomach tells that every good and bad thing should be digested by keeping it in the stomach itself and should not spread animosity on any subject. A sense of wisdom is established in taking decisions. According to organ science, a big stomach is a symbol of happiness.

    small eyes,
    Lord Ganesha’s eyes are small. It is said that a person with small eyes is of contemplative and serious nature. That is, the eyes of Ganapati give the message that everything should be studied deeply. By doing this you are able to take the right decision.
    Elephant’s eyes are small, it means being introverted. To be intelligent it is necessary to be an introvert. Another meaning of the small eye is that it keeps an eye on everyone but it is not easy to know where one is looking. Therefore, Ganpati ji’s eyes remain on the deeds of all the devotees.

    Four arms, Lord Ganesha has four arms. Out of his four arms, he has a hook in one hand, a noose in the second hand, a modak in the third hand and a blessing in the fourth. The first arm tells us that the hook in his hand is an indicator of That restraint on desires is necessary. The loop in his other arm is an indicator of the fact that it is necessary for every person to have so much restraint and control in his conduct and behavior, so that the balance of life is maintained. The noose is a symbol of control, restraint and punishment. There is a modak in his third arm. The meaning of Modak is that which gives pleasure (pleasure), which gives pleasure and satisfaction. It is important to be content in body and mind, only then you can get the real joy of life. For example, if you eat Modak little by little and slowly, its taste and sweetness give more pleasure and finally after finishing the Modak, you feel satisfied. Similarly, superficial and external knowledge does not give happiness to a person but the sweetness of happiness and success is hidden in the depth of knowledge. He blesses the devotees with the fourth arm. The Lord blesses the one who places the fruits of his actions in the hands of God. This is the message of the fourth hand. Its four arms symbolize omnipresence in all four directions, and while giving the message to man to be active, it tells that the work should be completed on time by using two hands like four arms. The entire living creation roams in his stomach, that is why he is Lambodar.

    monodentate
    In the fight between Lord Ganesha and Parashuram, one of Lord Ganesha’s teeth was broken, hence he is called Ekadant. Lord Ganesha converted his broken tooth into a pen and wrote the entire Mahabharata with it. His broken tooth shows that we should use everything properly.

    Not only the body of Lord Ganesha, his vehicle and favorite food also have their own distinct characteristics. Just as their vehicle is unique in itself, the mouse does not at all suit their physique and uniqueness but there is a special secret hidden behind it. Mouse is considered a symbol of playfulness, from this point of view Ganesh ji rides on playfulness and keeps it under control.

    Shri Ganesha is the first revered god in Hindu religion, he is included in the five daily worshipable gods along with Shri Vishnu, Shiva, Surya and Maa Durga. No puja or religious and social rites is successful without Ganpati worship. When they are happy, they destroy all the sorrows and when they are angry, they create obstacles in every work.

  • Are the seven vows of seven rounds of Hindu marriage minor?

    October 7th, 2023

    According to Hindu religion, the marriage ceremony is completed only after seven rounds. In seven rounds, seven promises are taken from both the bride and groom. These seven rounds bind the relationship between husband and wife for seven births. Under the Hindu marriage ceremony, the bride and groom take the fire as a witness and go around it and take a vow to live a happy life together as husband and wife and in this process both of them take seven rounds, which is also called Saptapadi. And these seven rounds or verses are taken with seven words. Every round has a promise, which the husband and wife promise to keep throughout their lives. These seven rounds are the main pillars of stability of Hindu marriage. In other religions, marriage is a kind of contract between husband and wife which can be broken in special circumstances, but Hindu marriage is a contract between husband and wife by birth. There is a relation between births which cannot be broken under any circumstances.

    After marriage, the girl takes seven vows before sitting on the left side of the groom. But today’s youth take marriage as just an event. If someone tries to understand these seven words then there will never be any conflict in his life. Marriage is not just an alliance but a union of two souls. And in that both should consider each other equal. That is why only these seven words are asked to be followed in Hindu religion. In a Hindu wedding, before taking the rounds, the bride has to sit on the left side of the groom, only then the rounds start. And before the wedding, the girl formally puts forward her proposal. The seven promises that the girl takes from the groom are as follows.

    In the first verse, the girl says to the groom that if you ever go on a pilgrimage, then take me along with you. If you do any fasting or any other religious work, then like today, please give me a place on your left side. If you accept this then I accept to come to your request.

    Second promise: The bride asks the groom for the second promise that just as you respect your parents, respect my parents in the same way. And if I remain a devotee of God while performing religious rituals as per the dignity of the family, then I will accept your I accept coming to Vamang,or left side.

    third verse

    In the third verse, the girl says that you promise me that you will follow me in all three stages of life (youth, maturity, old age), only then I am ready to come to your wish.

    Fourth verse, Virgo: Fourth verse demands that till now you were completely free from the worries of family. Now that you are going to get married, the responsibility of fulfilling all the needs of the family in future lies on your shoulders. Only if you promise to bear this burden, I am ready to come to your request. After marriage, sufficient money is required for the maintenance of the family. It is clear from this verse that the son should be married only when he stands on his own feet and starts earning a sufficient amount of money.


    Fifth verse, what the girl says in this verse is of utmost importance in today’s context. She says that if you seek my advice while spending money on household work, marriage etc., transactions or anything else, then I will accept your wish.


    Sixth verse: The girl says that if I am sitting among my friends or other women, then you will not insult me there in front of everyone for any reason. Only if you keep yourself away from gambling or any other kind of addiction, I will accept your request.

    Seventh promise: As the last promise, the girl asks for this boon that you will treat other women like mothers and will not make anyone else a partner in the mutual love between husband and wife. Only if you give me this promise, I will accept to come to your request.

    In today’s times, people get married as per the rituals, but being blinded by the western culture, they have forgotten the dignity of marriage. In Hindu society, marriage is a sacred bond, not a game. How can anyone torture a girl by marrying her after obeying so many promises? That is why women sometimes have to assume the form of Maa Durga.
