वन्दे विष्णुं भवभयहरं सर्वलोकैकनाथम् ॥

Who has a lotus navel(from which Brahma manifested), and Who is the Lord of all Gods; Who is the support of this World and is as vast as the Sky; and Who is of colour of a Black Cloud and has beautiful and auspicious body parts.
He, Who is the beloved of Lakshmi and Who has eyes like lotuses; Who is always approached by Ascetics in their state of Meditation; I worship that Vishnu, Who pervades everywhere, He, Who exterminates the fear of this illusionary world, and Who is the sole Lord of all the worlds.

The number of people from each Varnas required to form a Kingdom (Monarchial state) in the Mahabharata

In Shanti Parva 85, Bhishma talks about this topic..

Bhishma said, "Thou art endued with great intelligence, O Yudhishthira! It is even so as thou sayest. 1/7
The person is very rare who is possessed of all those good qualities. To be brief, conduct like this (viz., the presence of all the virtues spoken of), is very difficult to be met with even upon careful search.
I shall, however, tell thee what kinds of ministers should be appointed by thee. Four Brahmanas, learned in the Vedas, possessed of a sense of dignity, belonging to the Snataka order, and of pure behaviour....

They are of 2 types of Generational curse: #thread 1/11
1. External
Such kind of curse may come from a strong and austere personality like a Brahman or a saintly person.

There are couple of references in AnushAsanika Parva, Mahabharat as footnotes...
Once Brahma asked Surabhi to bear evidence before Vishnu to the statement that Brahma has seen the foremost part of Siva. Surabhi having given false evidence out of fear for Brahma was cursed by Siva that her offspring will eat unholy substances.

The name PashuPati is of significant importance. What exactly is meant by the name PashuPati? Who actually are the Pashus?

Pashupati means Lord of all Pashus. Here Pashu means every creatures and not just animals. It is clarified itself in the YajurVeda. Yajurveda states:
येषामीशे पशुपतिः पशूनां चतुष्पदामुत च द्विपदम् ।।
[YajurVeda 3.1.4]

Which Pashus do the Pashupati rules? He rules both the two footed and four footed.

The word pashupati has special significance because it is the attribute of Brahman described in the Upanishads.
It is itself clear from the Vedas that Pashu means Jeeva. And Pashupati is the Lord of all two footed and four footed.

The following blog article describes it in details...

Differences between terms like Siddha, Sannyasi, Acarya, Muni ,Upādhyaya and Rishis?

Checkout this thread to know the difference:

Ācārya comes from the word Acharana, meaning to “implement” and “abide by”. 1/n
An Ācārya can be a guru and can also be a jñani.

However, the main difference is that an Ācārya himself takes up an ashram (from among the four ashrams) and implements and abides by its karmā so as to become a living example in performing the karmā associated with that ashram.
A good example is Śrī Śankaracharya, who was a jñani at such a young age, took up Sanyas:ashram and continued to retain in that ashram, implementing all its respective karmā.

By doing so, he stood as an example – paving the way for future generations.

Answering Two Questions about #Yoga on this #YogaDay2021 !

1. Is it possible to detach your soul from your body?
2. How to differentiate Yoga from Dream?

The answer to 1st question is: yes, it is possible to to separate the soul or jivatma from the body. 1/9
Even one can enter another body through this process:

When the bonds of the mind caused by action have been loosened, one may enter the body of another by knowledge of how the nerve-currents function-
[Patanjali Yoga Sutra- 3.37]

#YogaDay
#YogaForWellness
First is, yoga is that state where all the activity of the mind ceases (PYS - 1.2).

So the idea that in yoga one must be somewhere thinking something is incorrect. If one is thinking something then he might be practicing yoga, but he is not in yoga.

Why is Tulsi Plant considered Sacred?

Hindus regard it as an earthly manifestation of the goddess Tulsi, a consort of the god Vishnu. The offering of its leaves is mandatory in ritualistic worship of Vishnu and his forms like Krishna and Vithoba.

Read more in this thread...
It is considered holy as it has been blessed by Lord Vishnu himself and burns away sins of a person.

Tulasi plant on earth is actually a form of Laxmi. As per Devi Bhagavatam, due to a quarrel among Saraswati, Ganga, Laxmi, Saraswati cursed Laxmi to be born as a plant on earth
Laxmi being favorite of Vishnu, He then consoled Her by stating that everything had happened as predestined. So He told Her to go and be born and as a plant in India.

She will be known as Tulasi and will be able to purify all the three worlds
