🌺💞🚩हिंदूधर्म में तुलसी पूजन की परंपरा पौराणिक काल से चली आ रही है। लेकिन पिछले कुछ वर्षों से भारत में 25 दिसंबर को तुलसी पूजन दिवस मनाया जाता है। इसकी शुरुआत साल 2014 से हुई और इस दौरान देश के कई केंद्रीय मंत्रियों और...
-भूत,प्रेत, पिशाच, ब्रह्मराक्षस,दैत्य आदि सब तुलसी के पौधे से दूर भागते हैं।
-पद्मपुराण के अनुसार तुलसी पत्ते से टपकता हुआ जल यदि मनुष्य अपने सिर पर लगाता है तो इतना करने भर से उस मनुष्य को गंगास्नान और 10 गोदान का फल मिल जाता है।
आपने गौर किया होगा तो ऐसा जरूर देखा होगा कि कई बार तुलसी के पौधे को चाहे कितना भी पानी दे दें और देखभाल कर लें, लेकिन पौधा अचानक मुरझाने लगता है। धार्मिक मान्यता कि बात करें तो यह परिवार पर किसी तरह का संकट आने की संभावना की ओर ईशारा करता है।
शास्त्रों में ऐसा भी कहा गया है कि यदि घर-परिवार पर कोई संकट आने वाला होता है तो सबसे पहले उस घर से लक्ष्मी यानि तुलसी चली जाती है और वहां दरिद्रता आने लगती है।

From 17th century temples in Andhra Pradesh to stretched canvases in modern homes, Kalamkari is a time-honored and widely beloved form of traditional Indian art.
Deriving its name from the word ‘kalam,’ which means pen, ‘Kalamkari’ refers to a particular, intricate style of hand-painting onto cloth and is noted for its beautiful earthy tones.There are are two types of Kalamkari paintings, Srikalahasti and Machilipatnam.
Having a strong connection to Persian motifs,this art has been in practice for more than 3000 yrs.Kalamkari derives its name from kalam or pen and it means ‘drawings with a pen’. This organic art of hand and block printing has survived generations in Andhra Pradesh.
Tara-Tarini Mandir is a famous religious place in South Odisha where the twin sister Goddess i.e. Tara & Tarini adorn the sanctum situated on top of a hill girdled by the waddling holy river Rushikulya. Taratarani attracts thousands of devotes & visitors throughout the year.
An interesting aspect of this revered shrine is the fact that unlike other temples, it wasn’t built under the patronage of a King or a Noble, the temple was set up by a Brahmin named Basu Praharaj as per popular legend. Basu Praharaj was a great devotee of Shakti, one night
the goddess appeared in his dreams and blessed him to be the father of twin daughters. He reared his daughters with utmost care and devotion. However, when he became old the daughters vanished all of a sudden.
Here are two very interesting sculptures from two subsidiary shrines of the Mukteswar Temple Campus, Bhubaneswar that portrays Nagas holding a pot.
It seems from its appearance that the pot is very precious.
Either it can be the Amrit Kumbh(Pot containing Nectar) or it can be the Ratna Kumbh(pot containing the precious jewels).
If this portrayal is related to the story of Nagas guarding the Amrit Kumbh before Garuda obtained it,then it is a sculpture of Naagraj with the Amrit Kumbh.
And if this portrayal is related to the story of the Nagas guarding the precious jewels in Paataal Lok (Nether World) then it is a sculpture of Naagraj with the Ratna Kumbh.
Either way, these sculptures are very unique as far as the architecture and iconography is concerned.
