Our #Vedas

The Vedic literature is composed of many books. The oldest texts are the Rig-veda, Yajur-veda, Sama-veda, and the Atharva-veda.

It is said in the Muktikopanishad that these four Vedas had 21, 109, 1000, and 50 branches respectively, with over 100,000 verses.

Cont.

Now, however, we can only find around 20,023 (some say 20,379) verses in total from these four Vedas.

The Vedas were put in written form around 5500+ years ago. The Vedas reveal their wisdom and philosophies by means of nature.

Cont.

The Vedas reveal answers about purpose and role of all existence. They also give information on living the life in tune with nature to achieve long lasting happiness, health and peace.

Five-Faced #Hanuman.

Hanuman faces the East, Narasimha faces the South,
Varaha faces the North,
Garuda faces the West, and Hayagriva faces the Sky.

Hanuman faces East. He grants purity of mind and success.

The Narasimha faces South. He grants victory and fearlessness.

The West facing Garuda removes black magic and poisons.

The North facing Varaha, showers prosperity, wealth.

Cont.

The Hayagriva mukha faces the Sky.
However, to make it visible to us, it is usually tilted and shown above Hanuman’s face. Hayagriva gives knowledge and good children.

Do you know why were the eyes of Venkateswara covered in Tirumala?

#Venkateshwara was very impatient towards the authorities who were making faults in Thirumala, which were disturbing the normal people, bhaktas and the poor people, who want their wishes to be fulfilled.

Govinda doesn't 't spare the wrong doers, if innocents were in trouble. He was giving punishments to those authorities, whenever they were doing silly mistakes. So authorities and Archaka varga were fearing to wander in the vicinity of Him.

Then Archakas decided to cover his eyes by increasing the size of Namam with camphor, to cool him. After increasing the width of Namam ad covering eyes with the camphor, the destruction was reduced. Nethra Darsanam for weekly once had started from then onwards.

एक बार अर्जुन ने कृष्ण से पूछा
"माधव,ये 'सफल जीवन' क्या होता है ?"
कृष्ण अर्जुन को पतंग उड़ाने ले गए।अर्जुन कृष्ण को ध्यान से पतंग उड़ाते देख रहा था।
थोड़ी देर बाद अर्जुन बोला-
माधव..ये धागे की वजह से पतंग अपनी आजादी से और ऊपर की ओर नहीं जा पा रही है,क्या हम इसे तोड़ दें?
Cont.

ये और ऊपर चली जाएगी|
कृष्ण ने धागा तोड़ दिया ..
पतंग थोड़ा सा और ऊपर गई और उसके बाद लहरा कर नीचे आयी और दूर अनजान जगह पर जा कर गिर गई...
तब कृष्ण ने अर्जुन को जीवन का दर्शन समझाया,पार्थ..'जिंदगी में हम जिस ऊंचाई पर हैं,
Cont.

हमें अक्सर लगता की कुछ चीजें, जिनसे हम बंधे हैं वे हमें और ऊपर जाने से रोक रही हैं; जैसे
घर परिवार
अनुशासन
माता-पिता
गुरू और
समाज
और हम उनसे आजाद होना चाहते हैं।
