DHARMIC CRITICAL MASS
.......
One of things that everyone needs to do is to sit down with the oldest member in the family and have a conversation. We must have the names of 4 generations at a minimum, if that is not possible, 3 on both maternal and paternal side

++

- both the pitru-varga / matru varga on the paternal side and similarly on the maternal side (Father / Grandfather / Great Grandfather / Great-great grandfather / Mother / Grand mother / Great-grandmother / Great-great-grandmother)

++

– a total of 16 names and four generations on each side now you have reached back about 350–400 years &that is good enough – start with including all of them in the pitru tarpanam (if you have got the adhikara now, those with fathers should not be starting the tharpanam).

++

During the conversation, find out who the kula devata is, what are specific anushtanas and sampradayas unique to the family that need to be followed. Write it down and put it into practice.

++

Was chatting with Shree Kumar earlier today and this aspect came up there – the three varnas must start the habit of upanayana for the male child and sandhyavandanam must become a regular practice –

++

– nothing will unite the Hindus more than this. The practice of daily Sandhya and offering of arghyam by a large section of the dharmic people and even making it a group practice at temples, near rivers, lakes etc.

++

will send out the most powerful message across the country – Dharma gurus must work on this and step away from politics. The cultural space must be reclaimed by the Dharma Gurus instead of ceding it to politicians.

++

Public display of Dharma is critical to reclaiming our temples as well – the release of shakti will start a groundswell.

++

The third important aspect is to start wearing your dharma on your face. People should stop being shy of sporting a tilak, vibhuti, or Chandan and so on – on your face is in your face and again crucial to regaining the space that we have vacated.

++

Critical mass is built like this – you don’t need huge numbers; you need critical mass that can act as the leverage that will set the ball rolling - let's build DHARMIC CRITICAL MASS
