Suprabhatham, friends!
Recently I had a Darshan of Bhagawan #Mahadeva's manifestation in the form of Shiva Lingam at Siddhanath Mahadev Mandir, located at Nemawar, Dt. Dewas, M.P.
The temple, located on the banks of River Narmada is exiquisite and gave me a divine feeling.
It is said that this point, where the Mandir is located, is the Nabhisthal (Navel or midpoint) of River Narmada. One can say that in some ways, it lies between Mahakaal Jyotirling and Omkareshwar Jyotirling.
This temple is supposed to be about 3000+ years old.
According to Sthala Purana and the locals, there is a connection to the Mahabharata with this temple. This is one of the rare temples that faces the West. The story goes that one time the Kauravas and Pandavas challenged each other to build a temple in one night.
As the Kauravas were greater in number, they successfully finished building this temple while the Pandavas were unable to finish theirs. Kauravas made fun of Pandavas for their inability to do this. So Bheema, overnight, did something remarkable.
Bheema using all his strength turned the temple which was east-facing into west-facing. (This I was told by a local) and gave a lesson to Kauravas.
Whatever be the folklore, the sculptures will take anyone's breath away.
Utterly beautiful and exquisite piece of workmanship is what one can say. And one more beauty of this temple is that the Stones sit atop one another and are not joined using typical civil construction methods.
Where there is Mahadev, Nandi has to be there!! So is he here as well, sitting calmly. No words can capture the beauty of this!!
The Sanctum Sanctorum or the Karba Griha - Bhagawan Mahadeva resides here!! #HaraHaraMahadeva. Wishing everyone a wonderful week ahead!!
generated a lot of traction.
Let me try and address some part of it.
From a finance standpoint, There are 3 aspects of being a senior citizen: a. Health and Health Insurance Costs; b. A steady income from broad source of asset base. c. People who will put Vultures to shame and acting in the financial services industry space.
I will address the 1st part in this thread and why PM / must make an intervention.
Health Insurance to senior citizens is problematic. As they move into an age where they are faced with a prospect of reduced steady income, the demands on that money goes up.
Translation of tweet thread about life challenges by @SudhaRamenIFS. She is a self made person and one of the reasons as to why I admire her.
I dreamt of career in Medical, but got admission in BE, BioMedical. Then got married at 21 after which I joined Wipro. 2 years later, left the job, tried at JIPMER few times facing few hurdles. Then with a 1 year old child appeared and in the 1st attempt got through in IFS.
In 2012 alone, I appeared in various competitive exams. In not a single exam I studied or prepared for Science paper. Whatever I studied for entrance exam of medicals, served my purpose which I remembered very well.
It seems Afghanistan is being sacrificed for Taiwan! The US want China to bleed in Afghanistan and Xinjiang so that the 2022 elections of CCP doesn't return Xi as their chief.
Mahabharata has many interpretations and makes us reflective. This is one such interpretation of Mahabharata...and it is so true...
It was said in the texts that eighty percent of the fighting male population of the civilization was wiped out in the eighteen days of the war.
Sanjay , at the end of the war went to the spot where the greatest war took place; Kurukshetra.
He looked around and wondered if the war really happened, if the ground beneath him had soaked all that blood, if the great Pandavas and Krishna stood where he stood.
When Nigerian billionaire Femi Otedola in a telephone interview, was asked by the radio presenter, "Sir what can you remember made you a happiest man in life?"
Femi said:
"I have gone through four stages of happiness in life and finally I understood the meaning of true happiness.
“The first stage was to accumulate wealth and means. But at this stage I did not get the happiness I wanted.
“Then came the second stage of collecting valuables and items. But I realised that the effect of this thing is also temporary and the lustre of valuable things does not last long.
