आज मै आस्था चैनल पर भगवत गीता की कथा सुन रहा था, उसमे कथा वाचक ये सुना रहा था कि एक बार भगवान कृष्ण ने माता यशोदा से पूछा कि उन्हें दूध, दही से प्यार है के अपने लला (भगवान कृष्ण) से प्यार हैI तो माता यशोदा ने कहा कि मुझे तो अपने लला से प्यार है मै दूध दही का क्या करूंगी I तब भगवान ने अपनी लीला रची और तुरंत एक दासी ने आकर कहा कि माता चूल्हे पर दूध उबल रहा है I फटा फट माता ने भगवान कृष्ण को गोद से उतरकर जमीन पर बिठाया और दूध कि तरफ भागी I इस तरह भगवान हमे यह बताते है  कि इंसान सब कहते तो ये ही है कि हमे भगवान से प्यार है  और माया से नही, पर जैसे ही मौका आता है सब भगवान को छोडकर माया कि तरफ भागते है I कितनी सच्चाई और ज्ञान है गीता में ई

SHIV SHAKTI FORM OF THIS UNIVERSE

SHIV SHAKTI FORM OF THIS UNIVERSE

As per the HINDU RELIGION the whole universe is made up of SHIV SHAKTI FORM  (शिव शक्ति रूप).  Generally it is considered that the the male part (पुरुष) is LORD SHIV (परमात्मा शिव ) and the female part is DEVI SHAKTI (देवी शक्ति).  But in fact it is not true.  The male and female form of SHIV AND SHAKTI is the human imagination.  In fact the LORD SAMB SADHA SHIV (साम्ब सदा शिव)  is the PARMATMA who is निराकार,निर्गुण (without any shape and any characterstics

) and when decided to become  VISIBLE AND WITH CHRACTERSTICS (साकार and सगुण) then the PARMATMA comes in the shape of SHIV AND SHAKTI.  Where the GOD SHIV imagined about the UNIVERSE and the SHAKTI implemented those imaginations and gave those a possible shape.  That is why in HINDU RELIGION the LORD SHIV is also seen as the HALF PORTION AS MALE AND HALF AS FEMALE and CALLED ARDHNARISHWR (अर्ध नारीश्वर)   

                      

                    In Hindu religion the 3 main GODS are considered as the BRAHMA, VISHNU and RUDHR (ब्रह्मा, विष्णु और रूद्र).  The GOD BRAHMA creates the UNIVERSE, LORD VISHNU runs it and the GOD RUDHR destroys at the end. In fact the GOD RUDHR represents the LORD SHIV inसाकार and सगुण रूप while the GOD VISHNU represents the DEVI SHAKTI in (साकार and सगुण) form.  In the biggning of the UNIVERSE the LORD SHIV has told the GOD VISHNU that the GOD BRAHMA will create the UNIVERSE and will be just like Your Son and You will run the UNIVERSE and GOD RUDHR will end this UNIVERSE and will got everything merged into ME.  After the प्रलय (END OF LIFE) the GOD VISHNU will take rest in the water (नीर ) and when the appropriate time comes then again the GOD BRAHMA will come out from the नाभि of GOD VISHNU and will again creates the UNIVERSE.

                                     If we come out of the bias that the SHAKTI is a female then we can think that the SHAKTI is GOD VISHNU.   Since it is the duty of the GOD VISHNU to run the SRISHTI (universe).  No cycle can be run without being started by some one and also to start a cycle some energy is required.  The imagination of NATURE CYCLE is done by the LORD SHIV and is started and required energy is given by the GOD VISHNU.  It is also believed that the fifth and the  most important work  of PARMATMA that is MOKSH is done by LORD SHIV only (for this please see my article why I consider LORD SHIV AS PARMATMA).       

Also in the HINDU RELIGION the LORD SHIV is called the HAR and  GOD VISHNU is called the HARI that also shows that the real SHAKTI of the LORD SHIV is GOD VISHNU and SHIV-SHAKTI are not seaperable.  How GOD VISHNU and LORD SHIV are attached can be seen when we go through the various religious books of HINDU'S.  When ever the GOD VISHNU took birth to save the SRISHTI then always the LORD SHIV came to worship GOD VISHNU- Ref.  In RAMAYN when the GOD RAM was roaming in the DAANDKARNY (दंडकरणाय) searching for DEVI SITA at that time the GOD RUDHR along with the DEVI SATI  (देवी सती) came there and worship GOD RAM from a distance which created a doubt in the mind of DEVI SATI and when DEVI SATI went near GOD RAM as SITA  to verify whether GOD RAM is GOD VISHNU and why the GOD RUDHR has worshiped HIM .Then the GOD RAM recognized DEVI SATI and told HER that HE is doing it only for the purpose of LEELA  (लीला) because HE has came to earth as a MAN.  Also before attacking the LANKA GOD VISHNU worshiped LORD SHIV at the RAMESHWARM for the sucess.  Also when GOD VISHNU took birth as GOD KRISHNA then also GOD RUDHR went to the GOKUL as a SANYAASI and sit on an अनशन  to get the DARSHN of BAL GOPAL SHRI KRISHNA.  In the VRINDAVAN also GOD RUDHR went their as GOPI to participate in the RAAS LEELA.  So both the GOD RUDHR and GOD VISHNU are the same and are the actual SHIV SHAKTI ROOP.  At one time the GOD VISHNU took the MOHINI ROOP for LORD SHIV and on other occassion the GOD RUDHR took the GOPI ROOP for GOD VISHNU, which shows that they both are one and are not seaperable.  Otherwise also the ladies are suppose to be at the left side male and also the GOD VISHNU came out from the left side of the LORD SHIV. 

              Lord Shiv is worshiped in the form of LING while that LING is fixed on a base which represents the SHAKTI.  Similarly in OM (ॐ) the अ, उ,म are reperesented by GOD BRAHMA, VISHNU and RUDHR while the नाद represents the LORD SHIV and बिंदु represents the SHAKTI.   The actual form of SHAKTI is the JYOTI or the LIGHT.  Lord Shiv is also called the MAHAKAAL and at the end of the Universe every thing got merged in to HIM and only darkness remains.  In other words the modern scientists called " THIS UNIVERSE IS CREATED BY A BLACK HOLE AND AT LAST IT GET IN TO THAT BLACK HOLE AND NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT THE DETAIL OF THE BLACK HOLE".  This BLACK HOLE is the mouth of the LORD SHIV.  The JYOTI or the LIGHT which emerged first of all is the SHAKTI.  In the end every thing will get in to this blackhole.         

Also in the human life  male puts the PRAAN in the UTREUS of the female and the mother gives those PRAAN a shape of PUNCHBHOOT SHRIR or the MAAYA.  Perhaps that is why the LADIES are considered to be SHAKTI or the MAAYA and the LORD SHIV is considered as the Father or the male.    

ATOM or आत्मा

ATOM or आत्मा

Though we reject all our VED PURANS as books of Mythology but it is not true.  All these books are based on the research of our RISHI-MUNIES who were the Scientists of their time.  They were so dedicated to their work that they use to live out of the cities in the forests.  The Modern example of the dedication like RISHIES is that of Dr. Abdul Kalam.  So the further research on our VEDA'S is given and ellobrated in the UPNISHIDS.  The Hindu Society forgot about our सनातन धर्म under the influence of MUGHALS and ENGLISH regime.  The authenticity of the VEDAS can be judged by the fact that the word 'ATOM' is actually derived from the word 'आत्म' of the SANSKRIT.  The atom has the three particles in itself that are NEUTRON, PROTON AND ELECTRON.  The NEUTRON has no charge on it , the PROTON has +ve charge on it and the ELECTRON has -ve charge on it.  Similarly the Basic particle of the human body is "आत्म' which is consist of the 'आत्मा' which is 'निर्विकार' means having no charge and is the most basic particle as the NEUTRON is the basic and most havey particle and is situated in the NUCLEUS.  The "जीवात्मा" is just like the PROTONS which is +ve in nature but sorrounded by the -ve particles ELECTRON (माया या पंच भूत ).  Like the ATOM basic nature of the human body is decided by the fact that in which orbit these ELECTRONS are moving around the PROTONS.   Means how much the "जीवात्मा" is closely knitted with the "पंचभूतात्मक माया".  Like NEUTRON AND PROTONS in the NUCLEUS of the atom also the आत्मा और जीवात्मा live in the same body and like NEUTRON the आत्मा never interfere in the activities of the PROTON or जीवात्मा and is a spectator watches the activities of the PROTON or the जीवात्मा.   So the India should do the research on our ancient Books.

HANUMAN AVTAR OF LORD SHIV:

Very few people know that the GOD HANUMAN is the ANSHAVTAR OF LORD SHIV and when the God VISHNU was to take the AVTAR as the GOD RAM and to help him in completing his work to finish the RAVAN and the other RAKSHAS the LORD SHIV took AVTAR as the GOD HANUMAN. For this once the GOD RUDHAR felt uncomfortable due to KAAM DEV and GOD RUDHAR discharged his VIRYA and the RISHI MUNI collected that in a leaf and later put that in the DEVI ANJANA through Her ears (for non believer it is the example of surrogated mother in the ancient Hindu Society). Due to that the GOD HANUMAN took birth as the ANSHAVTAR of GOD RUDHAR. When the GOD HANUMAN was a child He was having extra ordinary powers and once HE grasp the GOD SUN and left only after His mother DEVI ANJANA requested Him. After that the DEVI ANJANA advise God Hanuman to go to GOD SUN and take the education from HIM. So after taking teachings from the GOD SUN the GOD HANUMAN came to help the King SUGREEV and later met the GOD RAM who was the VISHNU AVTAR and GOD LAXMAN who was the AVTAR OF SHESH NAAG in killing the RAVAN.

This shows that the three GODS- BRAHMA, VISHNU and RUDHAR are actually one and are the different ROOPS of LORD SHIV. They collectively create, run and finish the SRISHTI and always help each other in doing this. This is the best example of the collective leadership.

SHANKH, TULSI AND SHALIGRAM

TULSI, SHANKH & SHALIGRAM are the 3 things which have very high position in the HINDU culture. The HINDUS worshiped all the three with high regards but very few know about the back grounds of these. The SHANKHCHOUR was an ASUR KING and in previous birth he was the SUDAMA a very close friend of LORD KRISHANA. Due to the SHRAP (curse) of the DEVI RADHA he took birth in the ASUR family, but he was still a very prominent follower of GOD in the present birth and was following the religious path with all faith. Since the ASUR and DEVTA always have a feeling of enmity towards each other so he was against the DEVTAS. He did a very hard meditation to please the GOD BRAHMA and as a result the GOD BRAHMA blessed him with SHRI KISHAN KAVACH and blessed him that only the LORD SHIV will kill him.

On the other hand the TULSI was also doing a very hard meditation to please the GOD BRAHMA and the GOD BRAHMA ask the SHANKHCOUR to contact her and get married with her, GOD BRAHMA also told SHANKHCHOUR about the place where she was doing meditation. Ultimately the SHANKHCHOUR went there and make a proposal to marry her. When she did not accept that then the GOD BRAHMA went there and asked her to marry SHANKH CHOUR and bless her that unless she lost her SATITAV (sexual relationship only with the husband) no body will be able to kill her husband. On the advice of GOD BRAHMA, the TULSI get married with the SHANKHCHOUR and they both started living happily.

Due to enmity with the DEVTAS the SHANKHCHOUR fought with them and defeated them. The DEVTA took a shelter in the unknown caves and the SHANKHCHOUR deprive them of the part of the YAGH given in their name. Otherwise the people were happy in his rule. When a lot of time passed then the DEVTA went to the GOD BRAHMA and GOD VISHNU and told Both of Them about their miserable position. Though the SHANKHCHOUR was ruling properly but he had deprived the DEVTAS from their home the SWARAG (heaven) and this act of his was the violation of the rule of nature or the GOD hence the LORD SHIV decided to kill him and get back the heaven to the DEVTAS the real owner of the SWARAG. The LORD SHIV asked them to go to the GOD RUDHAR who is the part of LORD SHIV and resembles LORD SHIV in all respect and told the GOD BRAHMA, VISHNU and DEVTAS that only GOD RUDHAR will kill SHANKHCHOUR. Then They all came to the GOD RUDHAR and told HIM the facts. The GOD RUDHAR agreed to fight with the SHANKH CHOUR.

Then the LORD SHIV or GOD RUDHAR asked HIS wife DEVI BHADAR KALI HIS sons GOD GANESH AND GOD KARTIK and all HIS followers and the DEVTAS to get ready for the war with the SHANKH CHOUR. Before war the LORD SHIV sent HIS ambassador to advise the SHANKH CHOUR and asked him to return back the SWARAG back to the DEVTAS, but the SHANKH CHOUR did not accepted the advises of the LORD SHIV and ultimately the war started. The war started and continued for a long time and DEVI BHADAR KALI and other followers of LORD SHIV kept on killing the ASURS on the side of the SHANKH CHOUR. But when the LORD SHIV was just going to kill the SHANKH CHOUR then an AKASHVANI took place reminding the LORD SHIV about the blessing of the GOD BRAHMA and also it was mentioned that killing SHANK CHUR without destroying the SATITAV of TULSI will make the blessings of GOD BRAHMA wrong. So the LORD SHIV or GOD RUDHAR did not kill the SHANKH CHOUR at that time and advised the GOD VISHNU to take the necessary steps.

Then the GOD VISHNU changed Him in to a PRIEST and went to the SHANKH CHOUR and asked from him his SHRI KISHAN KAVACH in the donation and the SHANKH CHOUR gave the VISHNU KAVACH as a donation to the GOD VISHNU. Then the GOD VISHNU went to the city of the SHANKH CHOUR and converts Him in to the SHANKH CHOUR and went to the TULSI. Then the TULSI could not distinguish between the real and the duplicate SHANKH CHOUR and had sex with the GOD VISHNU. As a result the SATITAV of the TULSI got destroyed. Then both the blessings of GOD BRAHMA ended and LORD SHIV killed the SHANKH CHOUR.

When the TULSI came to know about this then she got very angry and gave GOD VISHNU a SHRAP(curse) that HE will be converted in to stone. But in the mean time the LORD SHIV came there and advised the TULSI to give up her anger and leave that body and get her converted in to the SUKSHAM SHARIR (minute spiritual body) and go to the BAIKUNTH DHAM along with the GOD VISHNU. She was also blessed that she will remain close to the GOD VISHNU just like the DEVI LAKSHMI and the residual will be converted into the GANDAKI river which will be worshiped as a sacred river and the GOD VISHNU will be symbolically stay there as a stone and will be eaten by the small pesticides which will create a small circle in the stone. This stone will be known and worshiped as the SHALIGRAM. The plant named TULSI will be stayed on the earth and will be worshiped as a sacred plant and will be served in the CHARNAMAT of GOD except in the CHARNAMAT of LORD SHIV. The SHANKH CHOUR was converted in to the SHANKH and was also gave the sacred position in the HINDU religion and the water through the SHANKH is supposed to be the sacred water in all the worships except in the POOJA of LORD SHIV and the SHANKH CHOUR went back to the BAIKUNTH LOK as the SUDAMA.

NAGA SADHUS MAHASHIVRATRI AND KUMBH

The curiosity about the NAGHA SADHUS is there among the whole world. The people from the other religions feel surprised and even some of them goes up to the extent of saying it as uncivilized. But the HINDU sees it as the extreme of the self discipline, sacrifice, tolerance and dedication. It is not easy to live in a nude stage when all others are wearing very attractive cloths. It is not easy to stay nude in such places of harsh winter and summer. It is not easy to control over your sexual excitements, it is not easy to give up all the facilities of the life and stay alone in the hills, caves or ASHRAMS. Though in today’s society we called them as nude but in fact if we see carefully then it can be understand that the nature has not sent us nude and our skin is the cloth which is provided to us as the cloths to cover over body. The center of the skin or the GANTH of the skin is the NABHI. So the NAGHA SADHUS shows that they have no interest in the physical luxuries of the world and like their GOD LORD SHIV they feel that all the luxuries are meaning less and the real luxury is spiritual growth and the real peace is spiritual peace.

They generally stay in the caves of the GIRNAR PARVAT in GUJRAT and came out on MAHASHIV RATRI. On the MAHA SHIVRATRI they came out in the processions and go to the SHIV MANDIR and offered their prayers to LORD SHIV as they follow the path of YOGH and SADHNA told by LORD SHIV to achieve HIM. After the MAHA SHIVRATRI they all went back to the caves in the hill and not seen again in the open till the next MAHASHIVRATRI. Though for the rest of the year the tourist keeps on visiting these hills but they very rarely find any NAGHA SADHUS there in the out. So the NAGHA SADHUS represents the importance of the will power in the HINDU religion.

SHIV & SHIVA ROOP OF THIS UNIVERSE

The life is present in the SHIV AND SHIVA form only. Every male represents the LORD SHIV and every female represents the DEVI SHIVA or the SHAKTI (power). In the beginning of the life the LORD SAMBH SADHA SHIV divided HIM into LORD SHIV and DEVI SHIVA OR PRASHAKTI. With the inspiration of LORD SADHA SHIV the LORD SHIV and DEVI SHIVA OR SHAKTI meet together and give rise to the PRASHAKTI of LORD SHIV. When the LORD SHIV WHO is SHAKTIMAN (owner of the power) activate HIS PRASHAKATI or power then that created the NAAD (sound) from there BINDU (point) came into existence from there the LORD SHIV become visible and from HIM the MAHESHWAR came out and from MAHESHWAR the GODDESS of KNOWELDGE – VIDYA came out. The VIDYA gave rise to the different AKSHAR (digits) and VARANS (in HINDI means some special digits having the voices).and MATRAS (these are used on the top or the back of the digits or words for creating a special sound effect) and is called the VAGAESHWARI or GODDESS of voice.

The complete Universe has JADH (non living things) and CHETAN (life) objects. When the non living things combined with the life and then it becomes APAR (impure) or the living (CHETAN) object. These living objects are found every where in the Universe and are known as CHIDCHIT SWROOP. In this the JADH is impure and CHETAN is pure and are also called the APAR and PAR and LORD SHIV is the owner of both of these and is away from both of these.. In the beginning of the life the LORD SHIV uses HIS powers of ICHAA (desire), KRIYA (action) and GYAN (knowledge). When the LORD SHIV decided with HIS ICHAA SHAKTI or desire that this should happen and this should not happen or we can say that HE differentiates between the RIGHT AND WRONG. Then HE by using the knowledge decided the KARY (work to be done), KARAN (who will do it), KARAN (reason for doing that work by that KARN), and PARYOJAN (purpose solved). With HIS imagine and using HIS power with in seconds the SRISHTI (universe) is created and every living or non living things have their role and duties pre decided in this Universe. Every non living object is known as the SHAR and the life in this is called the ASHAR and the LORD SHIV is the owner of both of these. What ever which can be described is called the VYAKAT and certain things which can not be described but can be felt are called the AVAKT form and LORD SHIV is owner of the both but the later is superior then the previous. The bodies are allotted to the soul according to their birth in the previous KALP.

The power can be seen in lakhs of forms in the UNIVERSE. But in the beginning the PRASHAKTI (nature) gave rise to MOOL PRAKARATI (basic objects needed), MAYA (confusions or attractions towards the physical things) and TRIGUNATAMAK SHAKTI. The MOOL PRAKRATI gives rise to the present form of the nature and MAYA covered that with the KAAL (time), NIYATI (fate), KALA (art of living) and VIDHYA (knowledge). It also gives rise to the TRIGUNATMAK SHAKTI means the three types of GUNS (QUALITIES) named as SATVIK, RAJSI and TAMSI. These further give rise to the TRIGUNESH MURTIES. These TRIGUNATMAK MURTIES give rise to MAHAT (importance or self identification) which creates million of UND (egg) and PIND (jeans) which give rise to living objects in this UNIVERSE. LORD SHIV and DEVI SHIVA control the VISHAW (world) that is why THEY are called the ISHWAR or VISHVESHAWAR. Also since LORD SHIV and DEVI SHIVA or SHAKTI can not be imagined separately and always exist together that is why the world is also called as SHEV and SHAKT form.

The LORD SAMBH SADHA SHIV is the whole sole owner of this universe that is why HE is seen in various ROOPS (forms). Some people see HIM as APAR BRAHMA. APAR means the FIVE MAHA BHOOT (already explained), INDERIYA (already explained), ANTHAKARAN (already explained), JADH PRAKRITI (articles without life) are called the APAR BRAHMA. Some people saw HIM as PAR BRAHM ROOP in CHETANY ROOP (live form). Some see HIM in VYAKAT (describe able) form some see HIM as AVYAKAT (undescribe able) form. Some see HIM as SAMAYSHTI-VYASHTI ROOP means the AVYAKAT is SAMASHTI and the VYAKAT is VYASHTI and HE is the owner of the both. Some see HIM as SHAR means the JADH and ASHAR means the JEEV ATMA and HE is the owner of the both, so, HE is SHARASHAR ROOP. Some see HIM as the VIDHYAVIDHYA ROOP where the VIDHYA means the knowledge and the AVIDHYA means ignorance and HE is the owner of the both. Some see HIM as SAKAR (with certain shape) and some as NIRAKAR (without any shape).

Actually the LORD SHIV has never take birth from any father and mother. HE has no beginning, middle or the end. HE does not hate any body and is not effected with the MAYA or KARAM PHAL. HE need not follow any body’s instructions and it is only HE who decides what is right and what is wrong. HE has not to explain any thing to any one. When every thing got destroyed in this Universe then only HE remains here and all the energies of the universe get merged into HIM. Then again in the beginning of the Universe the GOD BRAHMA is created by HIM and only GOD BRAHMA made this Universe at the order of the LORD SAMBH SADHASHIV. So like that the different scholars see HIM in the different ROOPS (form or shape). The story of ELEPAHANT fits here in which few blinds who were asked to narrate the shape of the ELEPHANT and they described the different shapes as per they their experience.
