The rise of Gujarat in recent years and Modi's leadership in national politics left many Bengalees, both within and outside West Bengal, astonished. The Gujarat had achieved what West Bengal could not. But the Gujaratis were not so intelligent like the Bengalees, nor they had any Renaissance, nor they gave birth to kings like Maharaja Pratapaditya or Raja Sitaram, nor they excelled in the field of education, art, culture etc. So what made the Gujaratis great in comparison to Bengalees? There was one field where Gujarat could defeat Bengal and it was in business. Yesterday I read an article in Ananda Bazar about the lack of business-mentality Bengalees. The Bengalees always hated the business and the community that survived on business ( like Marwaris ) were essentially bad in the eyes of an educated Bengali. This mentality made the Bengalees dependent on others. However, the history shows that dependent people end in failure and lack self confidence. The grea...

Tungnath - World's Highest Hindu Pilgrimage The Tunganath (literal meaning: Lord of the peaks) is the world’s highest Hindu pilgrim Temple dedicated to Shiva. Tungnath situated in the height of above 12000ft in Rundraprayag district of Uttarakhand, India. The temple is believed to be 1000 years old and is the second in the pecking order of the Panch Kedars. It has a rich legend linked to the Pandavas, heroes of the Mahabharata epic. It is said that the Pandavas, after th e Great War at Kurukshetra, wished to atone for the sins of fratricide and the killing of Brahmins. They were directed to seek the blessings of Lord Shiva. The Lord, however, was in no mood to pardon them as he was angry at the magnitude of their sins. Taking the form of a bull, the Lord hid from the Pandavas at Guptkashi in the Garhwal Himalaya. But later Shiva’s body in the form of bull’s body parts rematerialized at five different locations that represent the “Panch Kedar” where Pandavas built temples of Lor...

Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains un-awakened! They are true symbol of unconditional love...  ---------------------------------------------------------------- The True essence of Dharma is equality: equality and respect to all human being, animal even immobile natural beings. Srimad Bhagavat Gita says much ardently:  “Iswara sarbabhutang hriddeshe tisthanti” Meaning: Supreme Being is in inner psyche of all being ---human, animal even immobile cre ations. Now it is up to us whether we understand inner meaning of this God-animal-bird association-- follow this with honor, deal them with love and respect and share the world with them or we just overlook it-- while cry foul over lack of Bio-diversity management and perishing climate! -------------------------------------------------------------- Please sign up for weekly updates at  www.SanskritiMagazine.com  if you still haven't!

In case you haven’t already read the previous post ‘ NDTV & Tehelka – Faking Limits ’ I recommend you do. This is because this post concerns the programmes aired by  NDTV  on June 27 on the  Ishrat Jehan  encounter case. The entire 90 minutes (30 in the afternoon and 60 at night) of the programming rests on some CBI papers of “ Black beard-White beard ” that NDTV claimed proved Narendra Modi and Amit Shah had advance information of the encounter. I just call it the “ Beard story ”. The MSM is now getting frequently rattled by articles scrutinising their shows like a surgeon. Sreenivasan Jain  of NDTV is upset.  Very very upset ! He was the one who aired the “beard” stories. In response to his show  Kartikeya Tanna  at  NitiCentral  criticised some of the points raised by Jain. A critical part of Tanna’s article (which was also mentioned in my previous post) reads as under: Journalistic incompetence or predetermined mind...

Yoga Hand Mudra Meanings, Explanations and Benefits. While at yoga class or watching a yoga video, you may have noticed certain hand movements that are held while in a pose or during meditation. These are called Hand Mudras, and they have a specific and deliberate purpose. In this post, I’ll demonstrate various mudras and explain their meanings and benefits. What is a Mudra? Mudra is Sanskrit for seal, mark, or gesture. Typically, mudras are used during meditation or prana yama as a way to direct energy flow in the body. According to yoga, different areas of the hand stimulate specific areas of the brain. By applying light pressure to these areas of the hand, you will “activate” the corresponding region of the brain. In addition to the “reflexology” aspect of hand mudras, these positions symbolize various feelings, emotions, and states of being. Hand positions play a part in many societies and religions. The Christian church uses many hand movements during mass – all of which symbo...
