Pearls of Wise

  Monday, November 30, 2020.11:05. AM.  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We have seen the importance of communication, secondly if we want others to love us we should be of use to others.  To achieve this we need to possess a service oriented mind.  Persons with such minds are considered as helpful personalities.  People with such a quality is naturally liked by all.  This is where we see Sri Raman as one such person.  ----------------------------- What we are taught is first comes communication and next Service.  Being ready to serve. Always prepared to help is the key.  Asking around if there is anyway that one could help or be of use to another rather than seeking help from others.  If we are able to utilise our energies for good things like this we can develop this into a skill.  -------------------------------- Today’s youth have to be very cautious as we have ( political su...

Saturday, November 28, 2020. 10:23. AM. One very important question in Ramayana would be....What sort of mind should we travel with in Life ?  We should understand what sort of mind we need?  As far as we are concerned, we all need recognition and appreciation from people. We want everyone to like us .  To seek attention from others we dress up, we use different costumes, we use make up, different hairstyles etc presently, instead we can think of attracting people through our communication. Without craving for attraction externally our communication should be such that automatically people get attracted to us. They should long for our company.  Our parents could help in developing qualities such as eye to eye contact, smile, expressiveness, voice modulation and so on.  So too.....addressing people and conveying our message with clarity.  Our first goal should be in attracting others through our communication skills and not our external looks. This lesson is...

  Friday, November 27, 2020. 07:23. AM. When we journey through Rama story our aim should not be to enjoy the story .  This is not what Valmiki Maharshi wanted .  Instead the motive was to understand and observe the characters in the story and connect the same by learning it and applying it to our life and moving forward.  Ramayanam is a pathway that teaches us this.  The manner in which we use a GPS to follow directions while travelling by car similarly Ramayanam is a GPS in a story form to show us which direction our mind should turn or move in this journey of life.  When we think of this.... we travel with our present mind since we are not trained or educated regarding this.  Many of us are not clear regarding what mind we should possess.  We require a psychological study in this matter.  This was the reason for Gurukula Vidya Practice.  Rama’s education begins with gurukulam teaching initially with Vashista Maharshi and later with Vi...

--------------------------------------------- Monday, November 23, 2020. 09:45. AM. We have been introduced to Sita in Rama Tatwam.  ================================== Who do you think is Sita.  Sita is Nature / Universe.  Rishis have used names such as Prakrithi, Prapancham and Jagath giving it a lot of thought.  We do not find the right meaning in English for Prapancham.  It is with 5 Energies that the Universe has formed.  Here is where Akasham, Vayu, Agni, Jalam and Prathivi or we can also say the 5 elements ( PANCHA BOODHAM-s ).  In the language of physics it is the most subtle energies manifestations Energy Viberates, it’s expansion is space, it’s grossified vibaration is Air, the friction is heat and after that water evaporates and gets liquified and then gets grossified.  All this is what happens in this Universe.  So the Rishis called this constant change as Universe.  This energy is constantly moving ( Jagath ) Jayate Gachati T...

----------------------------------------------  Sunday, November 22, 2020. 06:25. AM. --------------------------------------------- To understand the essence of (Tatwam )Ramayana is not that easy. One needs a scientific intellect.The .The beauty is when one understands this can experienced in this very life itself .This has been proved by our ancestors .  While other religions talk about Heaven, we do not experience heaven on the top of earth when Alive. The heaven far away in the sky is impossible for us to experience but here , Rama twatwam can be experienced in this life itself.The only one religion that turns knowledge to experience is Hinduism. When we speak about Rama Tatwam ... what does it mean?  Rama Sita Tatwam is what Lord Parama Shiva explains to Sita Devi in Ramayana. When told as a story, after Ram’s victory over Ravana , Sita was welcomed at Ayodhya after her Agni Pariksha, Raman who reached Ayodhya while ruling there, asked Sita to explain Rama Tatwam to H...

" Ahalya Moksham in Epic Ramayanam " - Swami Udit Chaithanya ------------------------------------------------------- After Sri Rama completed Vishwamitra Maharshi’s Yagam, Rishi takes Rama to Ahalya Devi’s Gautama Ashram.  She is Gautama Maharshi’s wife.  She now lies as a stone due to an earlier curse.  To bring her back to life, by touching Sri Rama Swami’s feet, Vishwamitra brings Rama here .  This story is known to all ( Curse to Ahalya ) but what actually is the message here ?  Bringing back a person who is like a dead stone to Life .  What is the meaning of lying like a stone ?  We should not understand this in its grossified sense, instead, have to understand it subtlety.  Ramatwam is when we make an effort to bring life back into a person.  This is the great humanity of mankind.  They are many minds that lie as stones..... means stones are heavy.  Minds that are heavy due to L...

------------------------------------------------ Hindus (Sanatana Dharmam)  have divided the ages of the world into four: Krita (4), Treta (3), Dwapara(2) and Kali (1). Krita lasts for 1 ,728,000 years, Treta for 1296 000 years, Dwapara for 864,000 years and the last kali for 4,32,000 years. Four Yugas is Chatur Yuga in Sanskrit.8640,000,000 years make one Kalpa which is one day for Brahma, the Creator God, in Hinduism. He will live for 100 years like this. This cycle is never ending and the next Brhama takes over. 200 years ago it would not have made much sense. Now after the study of cosmology and the latest news about the Black Holes and other things show that the Hindus are the only one ancient race that understood the functioning of the Universe. --------------------- Hindus wrote in their scriptures that in between the Yugas there is an interval called Sandhya period and another as Sandhyansa period. Hindus also told that the time period for Devas, Gods and Humans are differe...

  ------------------------------------------------ Ramayanm began with the 4 lines.... Ma Nishada..... This we have seen earlier. Refrain from doing wrong or negative things, is what it means. What ever we do it will come back or rebounce. This is the law of Karma.  The movement of the Universe is a cycle.Science has seen its external circle like energy , matter , earth, planet , solar system all moving in a circle . Our Rishis have been able to see this in a more subtle and deeper manner.  The motion of our Thoughts. The manner in which the thoughts flow and it is our thoughts which is the reason or cause of our actions. So each Karma that we do , the beginning of that is a thought, so it is referred to as Karma Samskaram.  Thoughts too move in circles. The thoughts that flow from within us lead to actions and that which returns is what we call KarmaPhala. When you do good actions you get good results and when you do bad actions it’s result too is bad. This is the w...

  ------------------------------------------ Tuesday, November 17, 2020. 06:20. AM. ----------------------------------------- Ramayanam  begins with Valmiki going along with his discipline to bathe in the bank of the river Tamasa that flowed near the river Ganga.  While doing so his eyes fell upon two Krauncha birds who were enjoying and making each other happy.  A cruel hunter hunts down the male bird, that struggled and fell onto the ground . Valmiki’s gaze fell upon this sight and compassion aroused in the kind hearted sage at the sight of the struggling male bird fallen and the piteous wailing of the female partner after being separated from her mate.  Valmiki witnessed all that had happened and involuntarily burst into a poetic verse, that seemed to flow out spontaneously.  It was in the form of a song with 4 lines.  This was the very first time a sloka was ever uttered by anyone. Manishada Pratistham........kamamohitam.  Which means you evil...

============================================ Monday, November 16, 2020. 07:15. AM.  ----------------------------------------------------- Ramayana contains 24000 slokas  with 6 Kandams like 1.Baala Kandam , 2.Ayodhya Kandam, , 3.Aranya Kandam, 4.kishkinda Kandam, 5.Sundhara Kandam, 6.Yuddha Kandam and Uttara Kandam.  Likewise in Gayatri Mantram... Om Bhur Bhusva...... 24 letters were taken and 24000 slokas were described.  Ramayanam through Veda Mantram in the form of a story ( history ) has been explained by Valmiki Maharshi.  What is the essence of Veda Mantra ?  The Veda Mantra explains in depth...Who is a human being ?  What is a human’s Life ?  Where has one evolved from?  What is it that one needs to achieve in Life ?  How does one attain that?  All this is beautifully illustrated in the Vedas.  Valmiki Maharshi has elaborately and clearly explained all this through his Ramayanam.  To understand and learn about our L...

  ----------------------------------- Friday, November 13, 2020. 07:30. AM. History of Sri Raman and Ramayanam-1. ---------------------------------- We present an insightful article by eminent scholar of Vedas and History – Sri Rajveer Arya written three years ago on the issue of Sri Raman being a myth or a historical legend. Its evident from the facts that Sir Rama was not only an Indian legend but a global phenomenon. There can be nothing more shameful than living in India and yet denigrating one of its greatest role models. Kindly read and circulate widely on eve of the Ayodhya judgement: ----------------------------- Nowadays, the issue of Ramsetu is highly talked about by many people. The government filed an affidavit before the Supreme Court which clearly denies the historical existence of Shri Rama on this earth. However, the strong opposing political parties, and other Hindu activists forced that the givernment withdrew the affidavit. Some Hindu organizations like Vishwa Hi...
