1. As promised I m here to share #hamdmade #natural #simple #pocketfriendly n effective receipe for #dishwashingPowder. My search for such a product started when I introduced #earthenware in my kitchen. As we know earthen vessels are... ImageImageImage
2.porous in nature n soap 🧼 used for their cleaning gets into these pores only to be released back while we cook in them at high temperatures. Who would want to have a curry🍛containing soap?😖
When we make a shift to #traditionalcooking utensils...
I
3. It's very important to switch to #traditionalCleaning methods also.
Receipe:
1. Woodash or cowdung ash (2parts)
2. Washing soda (1 part)
3. Soapnut powder (1 part)
In case, the vessel is too greasy, use hot water along with the above powder. ..... ImageWashing soda Woodash
4. This makes it more effective to clean oily surfaces. As I cook my everyday rice 🍚 on traditional 'choolha'. Woodash is a cooking byproduct n I get it for free. U can avail it either online or source it from a nearby village. Cowdung ash is definitely a better option. ImageImage
5. The sewage water post cleaning is safe for ur garden too. If u know another receipe for dishwashing option do let me know.
Would love to try it out😀
After all #healthiswealth
What's good for the environment is also good for us. 🌍
There are a few methods to prepare liquid dishwash with soapnut n lemon or vinegar but the problem with them is their #shelflife. Whereas this dishwashing powder I shared is completely dry. If stored properly can be used for more than 6months with no issue.
I generally grind the woodash in the mixy quickly to get a fine powder n then mix these three powders manually. N it's ready to use 😃

A north Indian saint Sundarar Nathar who mysteriously became a south Indian saint Thirumoolar.🤫

The legend goes like this….
Sundarar Nathar was a great Siddha Master who had Ashta Siddhis(8 spiritual powers) and Nava Nidhis (9 treasures of God Kubera).
Nearing the end of his journey close to a village Sathanur, an amazing event changed Sundarar Nathar’s life forever....
1⃣Image
He saw a group of cows surrounding a dead cowherd. The cows were smelling the dead body and crying. This cowherd, who had the name Moolan, was from a nearby village called Sathanur and had been bitten by a snake, and died.
Seeing the cows weeping with sorrow so touched was Thirumoolar that he decided to alleviate the sufferings of the poor cows.
2⃣Image
He first looked for a place to hide his physical body and found a hollow log.
Crawling into the log, where his body would be safe, he entered a mesmerist, cataleptic trance, stepped out in his astral body, walked over to the dead cowherd, lay down on top of the corpse, entered it, and slowly brought it back to life.

I was very fortunate to visit Thirunelli temple last Monday.
The temple lies at an altitude of 3000 feet and can be reached by driving through three wildlife sanctuaries. hence on the way to the temple, one can easily get to see a number of wild animals. we too, spotted a few🦌🐒🐘 of them.

This Temple is the only ancient temple in the world where the devotees can perform all the rituals related to one’s life, starting from birth to death and life after death. It is one of the most ancient temples in Kerala🌴.
It is believed that here the prathishta of Lord Vishnu was performed by Lord Brahma. It is also known as ''Sahyamala Kshetram'' and ''Kashi of the South''.

The Legend goes like this....
Lord Brahma (the Creator) while traversing the world on his swan got attracted by the bewitching beauty of the area. Then he landed on a hill which is later known as Brahmagiri.
Lord Brahma while walking through the hills enjoying the tranquility and serenity of the surrounding hills, saw an idol of Lord Vishnu resting on an amla🍈 tree, hence the name Thirunelli. (nelli, the Malayalam/Tamil equivalent for Indian gooseberry (Amla) tree.)
Brahma realized that this abode of peace is nothing but Vishnuloka. This was confirmed by a disembodied voice.
Soon he installed the deity with a request to Lord Vishnu that he should remain in this area to give peace to the human souls hounded by the thought of their sins.
Lord Vishnu assured that the rivers around this temple would wash away the sins of human beings during their mortal life and life after death.
Brahma entrusted two pious Brahmins of the Amalaka village, its keeping. He also instructed them that everyday he himself visit the place and do service to Vishnu.
The puja in every shrine closes ordinarily at about 9 to 10 P.M. But in this shrine, where the ordinary puja is done five times, from morning till Night the priest prepares for a sixth puja before leaving the place. On opening the doors next morning he finds that all the materials for the puja have been utilised during the night. It was Lord Brahma who performed the sixth puja when the animate and inanimate objects are in deep slumber.
This has been going on every day and will go on for ever.
The priest before entering the temple in the morning swears thrice that he will not divulge what he sees there on opening the door, and no priest dares to give out the secret at the risk of being bitten by cobras🐍 emanating from the shrine.

In Padma Purana (written by Veda Vyasa)there is mention of a beautiful Vishnu temple located in the picturesque Sahya valley deep in the middle of the forest. Thirunelli temple is also referred to as Amalaka temple and Sidha temple.

Many of my relatives n friends have stopped performing the rituals of 'shraadh 'during #PitruPaksha.
Many say, “ what's the point of making offerings n doing elaborate rituals for the dead. Just treat them well while they are alive. Why do something mainly out of fear once they are gone?” while I agree that we have to treat the older generations well while they are alive, do these rituals-deep rooted in our culture🕉️ are of no significance❓
In my parents' what's app groups, there are messages being circulated that these post death rituals have become just a way to make money by a particular section of people. In today’s era of space n science continuing with these age-old rituals is a mere waste of time n energy.
Is it really so? do Our ancestors hold any significance in our lives even after they are dead❓
Lets dive deeper into it.....

The new moon day known as the beginning of Dussehra. It is a special day dedicated to making an offering to express our gratitude to all the previous generations of people who have contributed to our life.
During this time, in the Indian subcontinent, new crops would have just begun to bear yield. So, their first produce is offered to the ancestors as a mark of respect and thankfulness, by way of 'pinda', before the whole population breaks into celebration in the form of other festivals like Navratri, Vijayadashami and Diwali.

Well, people who are constantly on google for every proof n answer may think they are delivered by the google lady.😅
Scientists say that human beings and their ancestors have existed on this planet for 20 million years. That is a lot of time. All these hundreds of thousands of generations that lived on this planet before us have given us something or the other. The language that we speak, the way we sit, our clothes, our buildings – almost everything that we know today has come to us from generations before us.

The people that we refer to as your ancestors, they may not necessarily be wandering around, hanging on to the trees, but they’re living within us., on one level, it enriches our life, on another level, it enslaves our life.

We are who we are only because of our forefathers. What they learnt, what they knew, their skills, their technologies, their sense of life, we have imbibed all of it, knowingly or unknowingly, every one of us. At the same time, if we let them live too strong within us, we won’t have a life of our own.

Have u ever wondered Why Do We Go Clockwise Around Temples🛕?
This walking around the 🛕 in clockwise direction is called '#Pradakshina'.
Some time back when my 5-year-old asked me, why only clockwise & not anticlockwise? I had no answer.
But Now I know the reason behind it.
1/n Image
If you notice closely, many natural phenomena turn clockwise above the #Equator and anticlockwise below it. It is not just with air or water, the very energy system functions like this. In the northern Hemisphere of the planet, this is a natural phenomenon.
Check this video👇
2/n
This is why if there is an energetic place in the northern hemisphere, and we want to derive benefit from or absorb the energy, we must go clockwise around it. If we want to benefit more, our hair should be wet. If we want to benefit even more, our clothes should also be wet.
