WHETHER IT IS MEANINGFUL TO SHARE DETAILS OF YOUR PERSONAL PRAYERS TO THE SUPREME GOD WITH OTHERS?

The worship of the Supreme God is purely a personal relationship between the devotee and the God based on pure trust. It is not meaningful to share details of all these to any other person except one’s own Preceptor (Acharya) in whom one has absolute trust and that too in a confidential manner. The Mantras and Nama Japas done at home will bear fruit when you are so devotionally attached to your personal God and not divulge these details to others as a propaganda mechanism. God looks for your simplicity, humility, sincerity, dedication, devotion and trust.

IS JAI SRIRAM DIFFERENT FROM JAI SIYARAM?

Whether you call the Supreme Lord Ram as Sriram or Siyaram
or Sitaram it means one and the same as referring to the Lord of
Sita. Sri refers to Lakshmi and Sita is the clear manifestation
of Lakshmi only.
When the Lord takes the form of Rama, Lakshmi appears in
the form of Sita only. This is authenticated by the reference
“राघवत्वेऽभवत् सीता रुक्मिणी कृष्णजन्मनि"from Sri Vishnu Purana.
Though only Sitaram or Siyaram is intended, it is the
accepted practice to write “Sriramajayam”. Thus,there is
absolutely no difference between Jai Sriram
and Jai Siyaram.

WHO ARE HINDUS ?

The Hindus are those who believe in the supreme authority of the Vedas. The four Vedas in terms of Rig, Yajur, Sama and Atharva are the common Scriptures of all the Hindus.They worship varied deities as ordained in the Vedic scriptures like Vishnu, Siva, Sakti, Lakshmi, Sarasvati, Vinayaka, Kartikeya, Indra and so on. They worship deities in temples based on Vaishnava agamas, Saiva agamas, and other agamas as well as those which are based on timeless local village traditions and beliefs. They worship village deity (Grama devata), family deity (Kula Devata) and personal deity (Ishta devata). But they all stand united as they perceive oneness in many forms. There are three main schools of philosophy in terms of Advaita, Vishishtadvaita and Dvaita. They speak various languages living in different parts of Bharata Desa and other parts of the Globe but they are seamlessly bound by the ageless Vedic philosophy, culture and heritage driven by the best of universal human values.The Pranava (Omkara) is the unique Mantra which unites the Hindus. The greatest virtue of tolerance is the hallmark of the Hindus.

Sri  Radha is none other than Sri Mahalakshmi, who out of great compassion, facilitates the individual Self to get the divine grace of the Supreme Bhagavan Sri Krishna, the glorious Yogesvara. According to the Scriptures, the best way to approach Sri Krishna is through first obtaining the grace of Sri Radha. Even a grave sinner gets redemption through her ceaseless divine grace and becomes purified to serve the lotus feet of Sri Radhakrishna. Let us not miss this opportunity to offer our humble and sincere prayers to the ever fresh and fragrant queen of Brindavan. On this most auspicious Radhashtami  day, may Sri Radha shower her blessings on all.

THE ESSENCE OF SRIMAD BHAGAVATAM

The essence of Srimad Bhagavatam is seen in Chapters X-46 and X-47 which present the deeply touching story of Uddhava going to Vrndavana at the behest of the Supreme Lord Krishna.
The greatness of the unconditional Vatsalya bhava of Nand Maharaj and Yasoda is described in Chapter X-46. The glories of the exalted Prema Bhakti of the Gopis are picturized in Chapter X-47. The pangs of their separation from Krishna and their constant and seamless thoughts about Krishna Lilas both in the moods of Vatsalya bhava and Prema bhava bring in tears and melts one’s heart.

WHETHER ALL VIRTUES ARE FOUND ONLY IN THE WEALTHY?

One who has wealth is considered a person of noble descent, a scholar,
highly learned in Vedic scriptures, embodiment of all virtues, an
orator, and one deserving to be seen. All the qualities verily depend
upon wealth alone.
This only reflects the deluded mentality of many people.
यस्यास्ति वित्तं स नर: कुलीन: स पण्डित: स श्रुतवान् गुणज्ञ:।
स एव वक्ता स च दर्शनीय: सर्वे गुणा: काञ्चनमाश्रयन्ति ॥

POVERTY CONCEALS ALL VIRTUES

POVERTY CONCEALS ALL VIRTUES
One blemish gets lost in the midst of many virtues just like the spot of the Moon getting lost in the midst of its rays.
But the great Poet Kalidasa who says as above (Kumara Sambhava 1-3) does not see the fact that one quality of poverty conceals even crores
of virtues of a person.
एको हि दोषो गुणसन्निपाते निमज्जतीन्दोरिति यो बभाषे ।
न तेन दृष्टं कविना समस्तं दारिद्यमेकं गुणकोटिहारि ॥
