Which is the World’s oldest Tape Recorder? by Sri Kanchi Paramacharya Mahaswami #Thread
Once way back in 1940s/50s someone was conducting an interview with Kanchi Mahaperiyava. That gentleman recorded the interview in a Tape recorder. @KanchiMatham@AnuSatheesh5@Vadicwarrior
Periyava then posed a question:
“Does anyone know which is the oldest known tape recorder?”
Nobody was able to answer. Then Mahaperiyava asked another question:
“How did #Vishnu#Sahasranamam come to us?”
Everyone said Bhishma Pitamah gave it.
All agreed.
Then #Mahaperiyava posed another query:
“When all were listening to Vishnu Sahasranamam, who took Notes at #Kurukshetra thousands of years back?”
Again silence.
Mahaperiyava started replying to everyone.
“When Bhishma Pitamah was glorifying Lord Krishna with Sahasranama i.e,
His 1000 Names, Everyone was looking at him including Krishna & Veda Vyasa. After he finished 1000 Namas, everyone opened their eyes. First to react was Yudhishtra. He said, Pithamaha chanted 1000 glorious names of Vasudeva. Everyone listened but nobody bothered to note it down.
Now the 1000 Namas will be lost!” Then all prayed to Krishna & asked Him. As usual, He said I also listened like you, so what to do!
Then all prayed to Krishna how to get back the 1000 Namas. Then Krishna said, “It could only be done by Sahadeva & Veda Vyasa
will help to write it!”
Everyone now asked why Sahadeva. Krishna then replied:
“Sahadeva is the only one amongst us wearing Sutha Spatikam the Pure #Quartz stone. If he prays to Shiva & meditate he can convert the Spatika into Waves of Sound & then Veda Vyasa can write it!
Then Bhishma & Sahadeva started the #meditation to get the Sound Waves of the 1000 Namas from the Spatika.
The nature of Spatika is that it will capture sounds in a calm environment & this could be got back with proper Meditation of Maheshwara, who is Swethambara & Spatika
So the World’s earliest tape recorder is this Spatika which gave us this wonderful Vishnu Sahasranamam!
From the Spatika recording, came the Grantha Book to us through Veda Vyasa.
When Mahaperiyava explained it in such a manner, Everyone were stunned!

We know a well established GowShala near my place since 2013. This is the first time they asked for donations to protect our Gow Mathas & Dharma. So I am forwarding this request from Sri. Raman's message to our #Twitter family. @Vadicwarrior@AnuSatheesh5@UshaNirmala#Thread

Why Is Jal (Water) Offered to Surya Bhagwan (Sun)?
Our body has a great need for colors, as these are vital for the well-being of the different parts of our body system. It may surprise many to know that several parts of the human body have different @LostTemple7@AnuSatheesh5
colors. Our nerves are blue, the heart is red, kidneys & pancreas are brownish, the bones are white, & the brain nerves are in rainbow colors.
The rays of the sun are white, but when passed through a medium, they get broken into their basic hues. When we offer water or jal in the
morning to the rising sun in the prescribed manner, the sheet of water falling on to the ground works as a medium to split the sun’s rays into a spectrum of colors & enters our body to benefit us. If you wish to offer water to the sun, you must do it in the correct & prescribed
