Long Thread, The Real Ramayana: The story of Ramayana is the spiritual progress of every individual soul in the pursuit of Moksha. We all live some aspect of Ramayana in our daily lives @mamatarsingh @DeepaShreeAB @Itishree001 @MumukshuSavitri 1/n

The characters
Rama – the indwelling spirit – the soul who is the king of the 72000 nadis.
Lakshman –represent the power of concentration (Lakshya) which helps the soul regain it bride – Sita. He did focus his entire attention on his brother Rama – the individual soul. 2/n

Sita –represents the Kundalini Shakti, the dormant energy located at the Muladhara Chakra. It is the dormancy of this energy that helps us identify with the body which we call the ego.
Dasharatha – ‘Ten Chariots’ meaning the ten senses.
3/n

Ravana – The devil represents the limited ego that contemplates its greatness.
Hanuman – He represents the prana Vayu which when properly harnessed clears the path for Kundalini (Sita) to meet her beloved soul (Rama).
Kaushalya=Satva Guna
Kaikeyi=Tamo Guna
Sumitra=Rajo Guna 4/n

The Story
Dashrath (the 10 indriyas) under the influence of Kaikeyi (tamo guna) disregards its duty towards Ram (the atma/soul) in order to offer undue favour towards Bharat (the body)…something that we all are doing ‘all the time’ 5/n

Sita was found when Janaka was ploughing a field. She was found from the earth which is an element associated to the Muladhara Chakra where Kundalini Shakti resides. Janaka is a symbolic representation of the creator who awakens the Kundalini by removing her from Earth 6/n

After marriage, Ram,Sita , Lakshman – leave for the forest. When Kundalini unites with the soul, they are blissfully immersed within each other and immediately withdraw from the senses, which die. That is why Dasharatha (the 10 senses) dies soon after Ram and Sita depart. 7/n

his was all fine until Sita chose to disobey Lakshman and strayed from her focus on Rama. As soon as this happens, Ravana – the devil (the ego with 10 heads or 10 senses) – abducts Sita (the Kundalini Shakti) to Lanka which represents the earth element, the Muladhara Chakra. 8/n

This means, that as soon as your concentration shifts away from the soul, you are bound to be dragged down to your limited self state.
Rama (soul) now lost Sita (shakti) to a strong adversary – the limited demonic human personality that uses her for his own gratification. 9/n

Rama had to wander far and for long before He could reach Sita as we all must search incessantly for the Kundalini once she has self identified with something other than the soul. Rama (soul) needs the help of Lakshman (power of concentration) to search for Sita (Kundalini).10/n

Rama also needs the assistance of Hanuman (prana vayu (Pavan Putra)) to eliminate Ravana (the limited ego) and liberate Sita again from Lanka (the Muladhara chakra).
This is the purpose of our soul – to awaken the Kundalini and experience its true universal consciousness.

Navratri Diet as per Ayurveda: The first mention of Navratri is in Markandeya Purana, which propagates Durga worship during the 9 nights. Navratris arrive at the time of Ritu Sandhi (Seasonal change). Like the earth is moving from a summer to a winter equinox,

our body also goes into a change to adapt to this seasonal variation and becomes vulnerable to disease.A good diet is important to boost our immunity. So the ancient Indians ushered in the new seasons with a diet that would help them cope with the change. 2/n

The whole structure of the Navratri fast is like a good detox programme. Fasting during this season helps in increasing Jathragni (Digestive fire) & Dhatvagni (Metabolic fire) which burns up all the toxins accumulated in the last six months and prepares a brand new Sharira.3/n

Homa/ Yagna Vidhi- When a man becomes Agnihotri, a fire worshipper in true sense, no one is allowed to sit with him in a Homa/Yagya except his wife. Before starting the Homa, Mother Earth is saluted first who supports us in executing this divine intervention. 1/n

After you sit down you start with Ganesha stuti followed by creating a Yantra in the pit. Yantra can be of so many types depending upon the Homa but most of them will be based on triangles to contain the divine energies within the enclosure.

Triangles are very imp in life, the human body is so full of triangles, an upward pointed triangle represents man s pubic hair and the downward triangle a female pubic hair; she is responsible for duality (Dvaitvad) by creation while a man is supposed to overcome duality 3/n

@proudlymessedup @Itishree001 @LostTemple7 I am aware of this temple in Chamoli district, 7 km walk, but more important is the story attached to it and it is beautiful. Since Narad Muni was meditating at this place for 364 days offering his devotion to Bhagwan Vishnu, the temple stays closed for 364 days and opens 1/n

@proudlymessedup

@proudlymessedup @Itishree001 @LostTemple7 Only on Rakshabahndhan. But why does it open only on rakshabandhan. Raj Bali had requested Vishnu to be his Dvarpal when he was the king of Patala Loka. Since Vishnu stayed there for quite a long time, Lakshmi was worried and she requested Narad Muni to help her. 2/n

@proudlymessedup

@proudlymessedup @Itishree001 @LostTemple7 So Narad muni advised her to go to patal loka and tie a rakshasutra on Bali s wrist and request him to release Vishnu from this promise. But since Lakshmi was unaware of the way to Patala loka she asked Narad Muni to accompany her. So Narad muni had to leave his meditation 3/n

Advaitam Ayurveda
1.The overlap of two triangles- male & female is the core of Advaitam which says that anything in the world is a part of Brahman
2. In the center of two triangles is the sign of creation which happens when both energies intermingle.

3. At the base of creation is the sign of infinity meaning the energies may mingle in infinite ways to create infinite outcomes, but they will still be a part of super consciousness (Brahman)

4. The three circles outside define the three universal balancing forces which maintain physical balance (Vata-Air; Pitta-Fire & Kapha- Water) as well as Spiritual Balance (Satva- Harmony; Rajas -Passion & Tamas- Ignorance)

Ayurvedic Perspective of Sadya (Onam Platter) Ayurvedic reference from the Ashtavaidya Nambis say- ‘Kaale hithamit bhoji Kruth, Chamkraman kramen vamasaya’ meaning ‘He who eats a balanced food and on time is healthy, The sadhya, therefore, is mostly prepared early morning. 1/n

The adage is: ‘Kaanam Vittu Onam Unnanam’ which means ‘one must have the Onam lunch even if they have to sell everything’. The principles of Ayurveda are applied in choosing the ingredients,the cooking utensils, the eating patterns,and has all elements involved in the sadhya.2/n

Eating the sadhya facing East is based on cosmic energy points, and that is why a sadhya can only be eaten with the right hand. The banana leaf is laid out with its tip pointed to the left and the items are served starting from the top left corner of the leaf signifying 3/n

Thread: The World s largest Ardhnarishwar Statue in South Africa & not India: The genesis of this tallest statue has a great story of motivation, character and perseverance and as old as 1859, when Indians were first bought to South Africa on a 5 yr slavery contract

to work in fields, on locomotives and indentured labourers. Most of them were from Tamil Nadu and lived in barracks on sugar plantation in the most menial conditions sometimes replacing oxen, sometimes mules sometimes broken machines.

However they took this hardship as a medium to learn new things - repairing locomotives and agricultural machinery After 5 years when the contract expired and they had an option of going back, they realized that with new learnings they can make a future in South Africa.
