Do you know?

In the Hindu way of life, this prayer is adopted while sitting on the bed at the time of waking up in the morning:

कराग्रे वसते लक्ष्मिः करमध्ये सरस्वति।
करमूले तु गोविन्दः प्रभाते करदर्शनम् ॥
🌺🌺🌺

And how many Hindus really follow this ?
The meaning is very simple: knowledge, power and wealth depend on the work with your hand.

कराग्रे = in the front of the hand i.e. fingers; वसते = lives;

लक्ष्मी = the divinity of prosperity (material and spiritual) [from the word lakShya = goal];
कर-मध्ये सरस्वती = in the middle of the palm; lives the divinity of learning, knowledge;

कर-मूले तू गोविंद: = in the wrist lives the universal guide of righteousness - Krishna.

प्रभाते कर दर्शनम = Every morning ones should looked at all these divine personalities...
...so that with them in your hand thus; you will enlightened day ahead.

For making us sit for some more time the second part of the prayer is added:

समुद्र वसने देवी पर्वत: स्थाना मंडले,
विष्णु पत्नी: नमस्तुभ्यम,
पादा स्पर्शम क्षमास्वमे।।🌺
The meaning is very simple: Oh ! Mother earth, where the mountains are part of your body and you are the wife of Prabhu Mahavishnu, May I perform my pranam to you?
While praying these lines, almost 60 seconds duration of leisure is given to the heart to change the state of work from a lower load to a higher level and the heart gets accustomed with this.

जय श्री हरि 🙏💞

One day the King of Puri went to visit Prabhu Jagannath. It was late in the evening and the temple was about to close. The flower vendor in front of the temple almost sold everything she had and was left with only one fragrant flower.

1/5
The king asked for it and when she was about to give it to him, the wealthiest merchant came and offered double the rate. Then began an auctioning for that one flower. Eventually, the king gave his entire kingdom to her (which the merchant cannot equal or beat).

2/5
He offered the flower to Jagannath and slept in the village hall as a commoner. That night Prabhu Jagannath came in his dreams and asked him to remove that flower from his head. The weight of it was unbearable for the Prabhu.

Daitya Sudan Temple is located near the Lonar crater – the world’s only salt water lake in basaltic rock, believed to have been caused by a meteorite hitting Earth around 52, 000 years ago.
It is surrounded by forests with a large variety of birds, particularly peacocks, owls, red-wattled Lapwings and ducks. A number of temples surround the lake, most of which stand in ruins today.
According to local belief, Lonar derives its name from the demon Lonasura (also called Lavansura). This demon used to harass and trouble the local people so much that Bhagwan Vishnu descended on earth to vanquish him.

Ganesh devotees chant Ganpati Bappa Morya during Ganesh Puja. But, do you know what’s the significance of this chant? Why we chant Ganpati Bappa Morya?

Ganesha is also known as Ganpati.

1/11 Image
The word Ganpati is a combination of 2 words – “Gana” which means ‘group’ or also ‘the attendants of Bhagwan Shiv’ and “Pati” which means the ‘ruler’ or ‘leader’. Hence “Ganpati” means “ruler of many” or ‘leader of the ganas of Shiv.’
‘Bappa’ means ‘father’.

2/11
But what is the reason of putting 'Morya' after 'Ganapati Bappa'.
There was a great devotee of Sri Ganesh in the 14th century by the name Morya Gosavi. He was originally from village called Shaligram in Karnataka where his devotion was looked upon as madness.

🌺💞🚩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...

#तुलसी_पूजन_दिवस
..संतों ने तुलसी पूजा के महत्व का बखान सोशल मीडिया के द्वारा किया।

तभी से 25 दिसंबर को तुलसी पूजन दिवस मनाया जाने लगा।

-तुलसी पूजन से बुरे विचार नष्ट होते हैं।

-मान्यता है कि तुलसी के पौधे के पास किसी भी मंत्र-स्तोत्र का पाठ करने से उसका कई गुना फल मिलता है।

#तुलसी_पूजन_दिवस
-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।
