Generally, we see Nandi Maharaj sitting directly opposite the main door of the temple where Mahadev's idol or Shivalingam is located. He is not waiting for him to come out and say something. He is in waiting.
Nandi is symbolism of eternal waiting, because waiting is considered
the greatest virtue in Indian culture. One who knows how to simply sit and wait is naturally meditative. He is not expecting anything. He will wait forever.

The fundamental difference between Prayer & Meditation is that. Prayer means you are trying to talk to God. Meditation
means you are willing to just listen to existence, to the ultimate nature of creation. You have nothing to say, you simply listen.
That is the quality of Nandi – he just sits, alert, not sleepy. He is not sitting passively. He is very active, full of alertness, full of life,
but just being – that is Meditation!

Some People believe that ,
The poison in the throat is always a burning sensation for Bhagwan Shiva. Bhagwan Shiva loves to spend time in meditation. But this burning throat is not allowing him to do his meditation. Then he ordered Nandi to
sit in front of him and blow some air on to his throat. The air blown on to his throat relieves him from the burning sensation. From then onwards, Bhagwan Shiva does his mediation with the help of Nandi Maharaj. #HarHarMahadevॐ #Mahadev

यह फोटो ब्रिटेन के एक फोटोग्राफर सैमुअल बॉर्न के द्वारा 1863-1870 के बीच लिया हुआ है। चित्र के नीचे लिखा है "ज्ञान वापी या ज्ञान का कुआं, बनारस"। तस्वीर में हनुमान जी की मूर्ति, घंटी एवं खंभों की नक्काशी दिखाई दे रही है। ऐसा माना जाता है की तथाकथित मस्जिद के अंदर अन्य हिंदू देवी
देवताओं की मूर्तियां मौजूद हैं। क्या इससे ज्यादा भी कुछ प्रमाण की आवश्यकता है ? तथाकथित मस्जिद के बाहरी ढांचे को देख कर साफ रूप से यह कहा जा सकता है की इसे एक प्राचीन मंदिर की शिल्पकला को रूपांतरित करके मस्जिद का रूप दिया गया है। एक कट्टरपंथी हमलावर आक्रमण कर हमारी सांकृतिक और
धार्मिक विरासत को हथिया, मनमाना करता है. वर्षो तक हमें इस अन्याय के मूक दर्शक बने बैठे रहना पड़ा है। भारत के लोकतांत्रिक शासन में भी अतताइयों की विचारधारा को धर्मनिरपेक्षता के नाम पर राजनैतिक संरक्षण दिया गया है। एक पूरी व्यवस्था हमे हमारी ही भूमि में हमारे अधिकारों से वंचित

💐💐।। भगवान् श्री परशुराम।।💐💐

*💐--भगवान् ब्रह्मा के पुत्र महर्षि भृगु हुए। उनके पुत्र महर्षि ऋचीक थे। महर्षि ऋचीक के पुत्र महर्षि जमदग्नि और उनके पुत्र भगवान परशुरामजी हुए। इस तरह भृगु ऋषि की चौथी पीढ़ी में भगवान परशुराम का अवतरण हुआ था। Image
*💐--भगवान परशुरामजी की माता का नाम रेणुका था। दादी का नाम सत्यवती देवी था। सत्यवतीजी और विश्वामित्र ऋषि सगे भाई बहन थे। सत्यवती पुत्र महर्षि जमदग्नि और गाधि पुत्र महर्षि विश्वामित्र का जन्म समकालिक था क्योंकि इन दोनों की उत्पत्ति के लिए ऋषि ऋचीकने ही यज्ञ किया था। इस तरह
महर्षि विश्वामित्र भगवान परशुरामजी के सगे मामा थे।

*💐--वैशाखशुक्ल तृतीया को सायं काल पुनर्वसु नक्षत्र में तुला लग्न और मिथुन के राहु में छः ग्रहोंकी उच्चावस्था में भगवान परशुराम उत्पन्न हुए थे।

Muhūrt (मुहूर्त) is a vedic unit of measurement for time. A 24 hour day+night consists of 30 muhurtas. Each Muhurta is about 48 minutes of duration.
Each Muhurta is further divided into 30 Kalā ≈ 48 minutes.
Brahmanas and Rig Veda define Muhurta as “muhu”
(moment/immediate) + “ṛta” (order).
So, it is the moment which occurs in an order every day.
In Ramayana, few muhurtas and their importance are described.
Yuddha Kanda, 4th Sarga describes a scene where Rama picks auspicious Muhurta to start towards Lanka with Vanara Sena
After
Shri Hanuman burns Lanka and returns, he describes Ravana’s palace in detail along with his army.
He confirms that Mata Seeta is alive and is in Lanka.
Bhagwan Ram decides to leave for Lanka and destroy it as soon as possible.

The word Veda originates from the root word 'Ved' which means “knowledge” in Sanskrit. This was the oldest syllabus for education in ancient Bharat.
The knowledge of the healthcare system and medicines stems from Rig Veda which gave birth to a sub-system called Ayurveda.
