AUM or OM

Image
All the mantras start with this sound AUM. Incantation of this sound is made before every sacred prayer in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Tantra etc.  Hindus consider it cosmic sound.

Sacred Geometry Tools

Image
Shatkona - Hindu yantra Star of David In Hinduism these geometry designs are spiritual tool which connects soul with energy field that exists all around us. Indian sages developed these geometrical patterns.  The way we are constructed and the way everything is constructed in nature is around particular patterns, rhythms and cycles. When we work with those patterns, rhythms and cycles then we can create a residence which allows for energy around us to heal our health, emotions and intellect.  Energy moves in spiral form (in and out). This way energy moves through solar system, through our planet and through our bodies, through every single atom inside our body and around us. These spiritual tool receives that energy pass it into our body.  Above was the purpose of developing or designing these geometrical designs. In other way you can say these are metaphors for philosophical ideas.  Meaning of Shatkona  How Shatkona is different than seal of King David or

Indian sages were Scientists of India Today we have different equipment to see objects in space. But in ancient time 1000 years BCE we did not have these space equipment. Then how the celestial objects look it is written in holy books of Indians. These holy books called Puranas were written 1000 years before common era. How Indian sages were able to write about those celestial objects which they could not see being on earth ? Telescope was not invented till that time. Lets check  few examples    - Bore Incarnation 1 - Varah avatar (Bore Incarnation) A bore lifted up he earth and saved the earth. That may be a fantasy story but in the drawing the shape of earth is round. So it means Indian sages knew that earth is round. We call geography in Hindi Bhugol not bhu- tatte. We call the world in Hindi Jagat which means object which moves Antares 2 -   Star Antares in space This is the 15th or 16th biggest object in the sky. This star is forty thous

History of Indian Mathematics

Image
India has rich mathematical tradition . Decimal place value system(1 to 9) was in use in middle of 3rd century in India. Ancient Indians discovered the nine numerals (1 to 9) which is used all across the world now days. Arab traders learnt it from Indians and passed knowledge  to the west. But still one digit was missing and ancient Indians introduced it to the world. The earliest known recording of this new number dates to 9th century ACE but it was discovered in 4th century by Indian mathematician Aryabhatta. This small number is engraved on a wall of a temple at Fort of Gwalior, in Central India. There is an inscription and this number is also written. I am talking about ZERO. Inscription at Gwalior fort Babylonian were using Zero as place holder and an empty space to show zero inside the number. The Indians transformed the zero mere place holder into a number that make sense. Why Indians were able to discover digit Zero ? There is a cultural reaso

The myth - Aryan invasion theory

Image
Aryan invasion theory is fake Aryan invasion theory is fake. It has been proved now. No fair skinned people invaded India. This was a attack from inside India.  Arya is an adjective (in Sanskrit). A term used to identify noble people in Vedas. Noble people were called Aryans. Aryan did not refer to a person. Arya was an adjective given to noble people. The DNA studies demolished the myth that India was no man's land. Sixty people came to India from Africa and rest of the world populated from India. Aryans originated from India and spread out. Aryans were farmers at Ganga valley growing paddy, millets etc. They had dentists too. They knew the drilling treatment. Cow was also migrated to Ukraine, West Asia, Africa from India through sea route.  Indian cow is also called Zebu cow. But in last sixty years ours books has not included this fact the course. Our children are still learning the wrong information in their books. Read more  Watch above video for mo

Vedas - Holy books of Hindus

Image
                                                                                                      Hymns of Rig Veda Unlike Bhagvad gita and the Ramayana, the Vedas have always remained an unknown entity, an enigma to Indians. Indians read Bhagvad gita and the Ramayana but no one have  any copy of  four Vedas. This is so because Bhagvad gita is accepted in the Hindu society as the summary of Vedas. Lord Krishna preached Bhagvad gita to Arjuna in Neolithic age during the Battle of Mahabharat. Vedas were written in ancient Sanskrit language. Indian sage during meditation Vedas means Knowledge. This knowledge Indian sages acquired during meditative stage in meditation and one other way to say this is that the Divine power(Ishvara) passed this ultimate knowledge to Indian sages. Calculating starting of the religion Sanatan Dharma(Hinduism) is not possible because it is eternal. But while studying astrophysics, Indian scientists have tried reaching how and wh

Tajmahal

Tajmahal Taj mahal is considered as the finest example of Mughal architecture. In 1983, the Tajmahal became a UNESCO world heritage site. Most people think it is palace of Mughal king but it is not true. Taj mahal is a tomb and a place of pilgrimage (Urs). The name of the queen was Arjuman Bano Begum . After marriage she got the title of Mumtaz mahal which means “My crown of the Palace” or “distinguished one”. Fifth Mughal emperor Shah Jahan (Khurram) had four wives.

How to beat boredom?

 BOREDOM How to beat Boredom   “Getting bore” this mental state is very dangerous for your life. This is indication of mind’s unrest or trouble.  Ashanti(Hindi word) means unrest, trouble,  Ashanti failane wala - Firebrand Charles Dickens In 1852, Charles Dickens used this word in west in his book ‘Bleak House’. Then this word was added into dictionary. There is one myth that only boring people get bore. Infect, there are two types of characteristics – Type A – These people want to do something new.

Religion verses Nobility

In today's era we all are fighting on the name of best religion. Mine is best and yours is doomed. This is cause of violence today. This is what Islamic state(ISIS) is trying to prove to the world. I did some research about sacred scriptures of  Hinduism. And I found that even sacred scriptures talk about learning nobility. And reaching to Ishvara will happen automatically. These books have emphasized on following nobility not religion or any specific God. Hindu sacred text says by Nobility an individual can find Ishwar . What is Nobility ? Nobility in Hindi language means Maryada. Other synonyms of Nobility are dignity, Code of Conduct, Decorum. In this life to find Ishvara an human being must follow the path of truth and this can be done only when  he lives a noble life. If he is not a noble man then he can not attain peace with supreme power. It is not religion which takes you closer to Ishvara. Religion only shows the path.  How perfectly notabilities have
