Did Ramana Maharshi or Nisargadatta Maharaj ever feel sadness or sorrow?

Being spiritually enlightened, Sri Ramana Maharshi and Sri Nisargadutta Maharaj felt the sadness/sorrow of other people more than the people themselves.
#Spirituality #fridaymorning Image
Spiritually enlightened souls are not like walls.

A wall cannot feel the sadness or sorrows of others because it is just a wall.

Sri Ramana Maharshi and Sri Nisargadutta Maharaj were like mirrors. They would reflect the other person's mind.
#Spirituality #fridaymorning Image
Once a woman who had lost her only son came to
Sri Ramana Maharshi & started weeping profusely for her child.

Tears started trickling down from Sri Ramana Maharshi's eyes too.

#Spirituality #fridaymorning Image
The grief of that woman was too difficult for him to bear and he assured her that the same person would be born as her son again.

Once Sri Nisargadutta Maharaj's daughter was on her death bed.

She had expressed a wish to have some cool drinks before she died. That was her last wish.

Sri Nisargadutta Maharaj went out to purchase a bottle of cool drinks for his daughter.
#Spirituality #fridaymorning Image
On his return, he found the house inmates weeping loudly.

Sri Nisargadutta Maharaj was told that she was no more.

Taken aback, he said, “No! This cannot be. She had wished to have cool drinks before dying. She can't leave her body without fulfilling her wish.”
#Spirituality Image
He then called her; strangely, she got up & sat.

Seeing her thus, Maharaj gave her the drinks.

Once she finished drinking, he asked her, “Do you want to continue living in your body?”

She replied, “No, I don't want to; it's very painful to live in this body.”
#Spirituality Image
Nisargadutta Maharaj said, “Okay, then leave your body and go…” and she passed away.

The incident shows not only Sri Nisargadutta Maharaj's empathy with his daughter's pain but also his cool detachment.

There are several important schools of the Kashmir Shaivism, of which the most elevated belong to the Trika system. The word "trika" is the Sanskrit for "trinity", suggesting the essential idea that everything in the universe has a threefold nature.
#yoga #Spirituality Image
Trika can be expressed as: Shiva (God), Shakti (His fundamental creative energy) & Anu (the individual, the limited projection of the divinity). Trika includes several spiritual schools: 1. Krama - in Sanskrit "process", "order", "controlled succession".
#yoga #Spirituality Image
2. Kaula (Kula) - in Sanskrit "community", "family", "totality". 3. Spanda - term denoting the Supreme Divine, Creative Vibration. 4. Pratyabhijna - term referring to the direct recognition of the Divine Essence.

Several Hindu Texts say that Surya is the supreme god despite there being million times larger things in Universe like 'Red Giants', What do the Hindu texts really want to signify here? Is Surya the supreme god or is there a philosophical meaning?
#SanatanaDharma Image
Hinduism is a really cryptic religion. As far as Surya Upasana, there are four to five different fundamental roots.
#SanatanaDharma Image
As Gratitude: Surya is a life giver. Everything on the Earth can be attributed to Surya. Nothing can sustain if energy from Surya is not available. Hence, we offer Gratitude to him.

Palmistry

If a man’s left hand that has a forked ending with upper end straight or nearly so means the mother was more practical. If upper line on right hand is more developed the man followed or cultivated mother's mental qualities more than those of the father.
#Palmistry Image
In a woman’s hand the reverse applies. On the other hand, if the lower line is the more developed on the right hand, then the subject, if a man, has developed the imaginative or artistic qualities of the mother, and vice versa if the subject is a girl or a woman.
#Palmistry Image
Where the Head Line is light/faint on left hand, strong & clear on the right, the subject didn't inherit a strong mental bent, has cultivated & developed his own mentality. Such a subject has been a strong student & has become mentally superior to his or her parents.

What was the genuine reason behind a "wedding" according to the Vedas?
To truly understand this “genuine” reason behind a wedding, we must first know Vedic nomenclature; thus its important that we start with some linguistics.
#SanatanaDharma #Vedas #Vedic Image
A wedding in Sanskrit is “vivāha” - it is comprised of two roots:–

vi = viśeṣa - specific or particular.

vāha = bearing, carrying, transporting.

So it refers to the taking on, or accepting of specific burdens or responsibilities.
#SanatanaDharma #Vedas #Vedic Image
So to elaborate, marriage is about responsibilities - duties and obligations which can best be dealt with as a couple.

Kundalini Process

"As the opening begins & deepens, the body may go through tremendous amount of shivers, shock waves & energy tremors. Kundalini is believed to be responsible for these, but if we just call it the body's energy, it's easier to talk about.
#yoga #Kundalini Image
As the opening progresses, the body must readjust. When space opens up, it provides room for the body to reharmonize and return to its natural state.
#yoga #Kundalini Image
During this process, some people's bodies experience a real shakedown and can be painful. This can be quite dramatic because energy that has been trapped on the various levels -- physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual -- is released.

Bhagwan Vishnu carries a mace which symbolizes Vishnu’s divine power is the source of all mental, spiritual, and physical strength. Is it true?

In this era we give an abstract reason for everything in scriptures.
#SanatanaDharma Image
To understand the Mace we must know the difference between Vishnu & his Krishna Avatar.

With Vishnu we can convert an idea into action any time, yielding a weak or a strong action i.e. we can vary the action's power, like we vary the power generated from Mace.
#SanatanaDharma Image
In contrast, with Krishna we can convert an idea into an action from our Positive attitude only, which would result in maximally efficient actions and ensure that all activities of our life are compatible among themselves.
