🌺राम रामेश्वर मंदिर🌺

राजस्थान में धोलपुर ज़िले के सैंपऊ कस्बे का ऐतिहासिक महादेव मंदिर न केवल जन-जन की आस्था का केंद्र हैं, बल्कि देश भर में भव्यता और नक्काशी का अद्भुत नमूना भी हैं। मौर्य कालीन स्थापत्य कला का जीवंत उदाहरण है।
इनको राम रामेश्वर भी कहा जाता है तो स्थानीय लोग सैंपऊ भोला भी कहते हैं। पार्वती नदी की ओर सैंपऊ कस्बे से करीब 3 किमी दूर स्थित यह मंदिर महाराजा भगवंत सिंह और उनके संरक्षक कन्हैयालाल राजधर की धार्मिक आस्था का परिचय है।
मंदिर में स्थापित स्वयंभु शिवलिंग करीब सात सो वर्ष पुराना है।
यह शिवलिंग संवत 1305 में तीर्थाटन करते हुए यहां आए श्याम रतन पुरी ने एक पेड़ के नीचे अपना धुना लगा लिया और कुछ दिन बाद उन्हें आभास हुआ की इन झाडिय़ों में शिवलिंग दबा है। झाडिय़ों को हटाकर इस जगह की खुदाई की तो शिवलिंग दिखाई दिया।
खुदाई करते समय शिवलिंग खंडित हो गया और खंडित मूर्ति को निषेध मानकर श्याम रतन पुरी ने मिटटी से दबाना शुरू किया, तो मूर्ति मिटटी में नहीं दबी, जितना दबाते गए वो उतनी ही बाहर निकलती गई और आठ फीट तक मिटटी का ढेर लगाने के बाद भी शिवलिंग दिखता ही रहा।
इसके बाद उन्होंने गोलाकार चबूतरा नुमा बनाकर शिवलिंग की पूजा अर्चना शुरू कर दी।मंदिर की बारहदरी में बने कमरों में बनी खिड़की पत्थर में नक़्क़ाशी करके बनायी हैं, जो देखने में एक नक़्क़ाशी बाला दरवाज़ा नज़र आती हैं, जो कि बहुत ही मनमोहक हैं।
सावन के महीने में हज़ारों लोग यहाँ से लगभग 200 किमी दूर गंगा जी से पैदल काँवर में जल लाकर इन महादेव पर चढ़ाते हैं।

हर हर महादेव 🙏🌺

Arjuna’s Penance is one of the magnificent monuments of Mahabalipuram. This wonderful bas air relief dates back to the mid-seventh century. Standing tall at a height of 43 feet, the monolith was carved on the face of two huge adjoining boulders, making its length around 96 feet. Image
The majestic structure cannot be made out in photographs, it deserves to be praised by one’s own eyes. The subject of the massive structure is either Arjuna's Penance or the Descent of the Ganges, or possibly both.
Historians and experts of archeology have never settled on one account as there are not sufficient sources or records.

‘Arjuna's Penance’ is an extract from the Mahabharata, of how Arjuna, one of the Pandavas, performed severe austerities in order to obtain Shiva's weapon.

🌺What is an Ayurvedic Clock?🌺

Ayurveda believes that there is an‘energy clock’ i.e. our levels of energy are in synch with time & there is an optimal time of day for different activities.

The concept of Ayurvedic Clock is similar to that of the biological clock or body clock.
It is linked to how our body and mind function relative to both the surrounding energy and the state of our bodily humors (doshas).

The closer our daily rhythms are aligned with the rhythm of nature, the closer we are to achieving mind-body balance and wellness.
If we go against natural cycle of nature,we experience imbalance & deterioration of our health.

How does Dosha Clock work?

In Ayurvedic Dosha Clock, the day is split into six 4-hour periods.Each period is related to a specific dosha & it is repeated twice in a 24 hour period.

🌺Musical stone pillars of vittala temple - Hampi's mystical masterpiece🌺

The multi columned monolithic stone when struck in a certain manner creates sounds similar to specific Indian musical instruments like the Mridangam(percussion), ghanta (bell), and even Veena(string).
Each pillar is 3.6mts high & made of solid granite. Each of the 8 main pillar has seven minor pillars that emit sound constituting a total of 56 musical pillars

How do these pillars of the same material create different sounds.
The British tried to figure out this mystery by cutting one of the larger pillars and one of the smaller pillars to get to the bottom of this mystery. But there was no revelation - because all the pillars were the same - Solid rock
