Learning from Vedas - Backup

Complete Bhagavadgita - lectures on all slokas in simple English by Swami Paramarthananda Saraswati. Swami Paramarthananda Saraswati, a disciple of Swami Dayananda Saraswati and Swami Chinmayananda Saraswati, has been giving lectures on Vedanta, in Chennai for the past 30 years. He has firmly ignored many calls by devotees to start an Ashramam all these years and lives in a small 2 BHK apartment which he bought for his mother much before his Sannyaasa.  He formally studied in a Gurukula paramparaa - Veda, Sanskrit, Shastra, Smriti granthas. He has released (informally to his students) a hand-written notes (a 30-40 page booklet) on Upasarga, which I got hold of two years back and still refer, his scholarship in Sanskrit vyakarana amazing. He is the teacher of Swami Omkaranandaji (Theni) and also Swami Guruparanandaji. During 2012, I had the opportunity to personally visit Swamiji's house and got his blessings and also had a long one-to-one discussion on "Sabdabrahma" He is...

Nice thought! For some time, one question was pondering me. When rishis talk about creation destruction of this universe, I wondered How They were able to. Explaining things that are to present, That's was Good, But How come destruction which Will happen after some billions of years. But yesterday when I woke up, as every one has, thoughts used to run in my mind, I need to do this today, go there, meet someone, etc etc. After a while the thoughts Will get alligned. So the rush of thoughts is bhrama, the thoughts when gets streamlined is vishnu. Organised way is sthitikara. When during our sleep when manas isn't there That's shiva's aspect, So that means creation, maintenance and the destruction does happen every day within us. Hence pondering on that our rishi's might have given up such info. (There could be other ways too But this one seems good to me ) So That's the reason It's told to take vishnu after waking up and shiva's name while going to...

Where's my thinking going ? Our Scriptures talk lot of yagya, yaga,,rituals right. Does that karma itself gives me Good results? Or God needs to be pleased with my acts? If you say that God needs to intervene then the point that God being nirguna, who never has any beyond feelings, never onto any gunas ? How he Will be pleased? Persons like ramana maharsi, shankaracharya never felt happy or sad come What may! They were just sakshi to things, so Will be God right! So How my Good karma like yagam Will help me? I don't say that I'm against all of them. But want someone to enlighten me on this!

An attempt to unravel  the mystery of Puraana and Ithihaasa

It was nearing the end of the Dwarpa Yuga, an age was coming to a close and a new age was beginning to grip humanity, the birth of the Kali Yuga was emanate.  Among Krishnas last teachings was that he accepts worship in three ways: 1. Vedic 2. Tantric 3. A combination of the two. After having given his final teachings, Krishna began to meditate, and burned the body through Agni Dharana, leaving this physical plane.  Thus ushering in the Kali Yuga. --Yogi Baba Prem

“Don’t we conserve a rare, old painting or sculpture? This is a live language…and rich cultural heritage which might become the casualty of neglect just as great civilisations like Hampi, the art of Ajanta and temples of Konark got buried in oblivion. It was up to the British to discover them later. Sanskrit, along with its culture, philosophy and science might become similarly extinct. On the other hand, there is so much yet to discover through Sanskrit." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/indiahome/indianews/article-3038926/Sanskrit-fever-grips-Germany-14-universities-teaching-India-s-ancient-language-struggle-meet-demand-students-clamour-courses.html#ixzz3XLeFoPn9

http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20150413-the-downsides-of-being-clever This article actually covers the general mindset of Traditional Indian scholars - They are not clever for a reason - the Traditional system in which the studies are rooted is about holistic view of things than the current - based on success oriented cleverness http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20150413-the-downsides-of-being-clever

If I were to relate the basics of this universe, time, matter and space. 3 things out of this the entire manifestation takes place right? Which God you would relate them to? Bhrama to time, vishnu to matter, space to shiva ? I don't mean this is something which was told already in vedas, But just for an argument sake. :) We can drop this blog whenever you guys think that this approach of thinking is wrong..!

MAYA…MIND CONTROL WEAPONS EXISTED IN ANCIENT TIMES DURING RAMAYAN ERA http://awara32.blogspot.in/2013/07/mayamind-control-weapons-existed-in.html During Treta Yug mantra controlled weapons were available, which is common today. Mind control weapon ‘MAYA’ was used by Ravan. Work is being done by modern science now in developing these weapons The world today is slowly getting developed by scientists not for the welfare of humanity, but for controlling humanity and for military use. Perhaps this has happened in earlier times too. The scientists of today believe that science was much more developed in ancient time, and Hindus have history confirming the same. If we look at the history of ancient period of Treta Yug and Dwaaper Yug, one would realize that science was extremely developed; much more than the present time, and during the pre Mahabharat period science witnessed a period which is not easily achievable now, even after a couple of centuries, or even more.

Shri Krishnamurthi CG.......Sir, Thanks for accepting my request ....!

Thought of introducing an important work by Sri Vidyaaranya Swamiji (also known as Maadhavaacharya), A great scholar (Guru of Vijayanagara Empire) who was the 12th Jagadguru of the Sringeri Sharada Peetham from 1380 to 1386 A.D., had written a detailed work on various Bharatiya dharshana at that time, aptly named "Sarva-darshana-sangraha" - a kind of encyclopedia with a detailed subjective "Philosophical comparative analysis" of all the Dhaarmika systems (all follow the Dharma ultimately) and their philosophies during his time and/or earlier. People instead of creating their own theories about Indian shastras, darshanas and own ideas about Indian philosophical interpretations  - should read this foundation book and have a clear understanding - which we clearly lack. As we have lot of writers among us - this is an important appeal for gaining correct understanding and also not wrongly quoting the originals or any particular philosophy. Note: If you're reading thi...
