Did you know?

In terms of etymology, Bagala is “rope” or “rein” and Mukhi “face” or “image”. Thus, Bagalamukhi is the Devi whose face has the formidable power (through her subtle radiation) to control or to rule any situation or form in manifestation.
#Sanatandharma #hinduism twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
One of the principal aspects of Bagalamukhi is related to speech and that is why she resonates with the Great Cosmic Wisdom or Mahavidya Ma Tara, sometimes she is even considered one of her forms.
#Sanatandharma #hinduism twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
It is easy to understand this connection if we realize that intense subtle radiation is often related to manifestation of light; thus, Ma Tara manifests as Bagalamukhi when the subtle sound energies of manifest as light.

What is an Ayurvedic Clock?

#Longthread
#Sanatandharma

Ayurveda believes that there is an ‘energy clock’, that is, our levels of energy are in synch with time and there is an optimal time of day for different activities. Image
The concept of the Ayurvedic Clock is similar to that of the biological clock or body clock. It is linked to how our body and mind function relative to both the surrounding energy and the state of our bodily humors (doshas).
The closer our daily rhythms are aligned with the rhythm of nature, the closer we are to achieving mind-body balance and wellness. If we go against the natural cycle of nature, we experience imbalance and deterioration of our health.

If someone wants to learn Tantra then how to go about it?
#SanatanaDharma #hinduism #spirituality Image
Tantra is system; to learn the system you must first understand it. People curious about tantra think that if a white or saffron-robe wearing, old guy gives them a mantra then after some practice they’ll also start performing magic.
#SanatanaDharma #hinduism #spirituality Image
The western system educated souls think that by chanting a mantra or doing this kriya or that mudra with closed eyes, they’ll one fine day open their eyes and witness their enlightened selves. I encounter both kind of seekers every day.

This is Unbelievable!!!
The 13th century poet Saint Gyandev created a children's game called Moksha Patam. The British later named it Snakes and Ladders 🪜🐍 & diluted the entire knowledge unlike the original Moksha Patam.
Their limited understanding of the purpose of human Image
life reflected in their version of the game and ended up making it a mere winner/loser ordeal.

In the original one hundred square game board, the 12th square was faith, the 51st square was reliability, the 57th square was generosity, the 76th square was knowledge, and the Image
78th square was asceticism.
These were the squares where the ladders were found and one could move ahead faster.
The 41st square was for disobedience, the 44th square for arrogance, the 49th square for vulgarity, the 52nd square for theft, the 58th square for lying, Image

#हरे_कृष्ण प्रभुजी 😎🤞🙏
#भागवत_गीता के अनुसार ...

"सब कुछ मुझ पर टिका है, जैसे मोती एक धागे में पिरोए जाते हैं, मैं पृथ्वी की मूल सुगंध हूं। मैं पानी में स्वाद हूं। मैं आग में गर्मी और अंतरिक्ष में ध्वनि हूं। मैं सूर्य और चंद्रमा का प्रकाश और सभी जीवित प्राणियों का जीवन हूं।" Image
एक बार जब संसार सजीव हो गया अनगिनत जीवो से भर गया , विष्णु ने खुद को एक तीसरे रूप में विस्तारित किया और प्रत्येक व्यक्ति के साथ बैठने के लिए सभी प्राणियों के दिलों में प्रवेश किया।

परमात्मा के रूप में आत्मा , व्यक्तिगत आत्मा, जिसे आत्मा कहा जाता है, जीवन का आधार है।

स्वयं के
रूप में इसकी उपस्थिति से यह शरीर को ऊर्जा देता है।

संसार इस प्रकार पदार्थ और आत्मा, असंख्य जीवन रूपों और उनके भीतर आत्मा का एक संयोजन है। जब आत्मा एक शरीर को छोड़ती है, तो वह शरीर मर जाता है। आत्मा फिर दूसरे शरीर में प्रवेश करती है, जैसे कोई अभिनेता कपड़े बदलता है।

As per Shakta worldview Maya is the creative power of the Supreme. It is by acts of exclusive concentration that the Supreme is able to create a world of apparent divergence on the substratum of the Brahman.

The gods are different from each other, just as there is difference in species, countries, men and women, even a grain of dust maybe different from another grain.

Each individual feels himself different from everything else in the world. This unique sense of differentiation and individualization is the creative power of Maya, and since this exists even in the realm of the great gods,
