What is life ?

Your life is an expression of you. Your life is the mirror of who you are. Are you making the most of it. Be yourself. Trying to be anyone else is a waste of the person you are.

Namaste Beautiful Souls. It's Transformation Thursday. Embrace that individual inside you that has ideas, strengths and beauty like no one else. Be the person you know yourself to be. Always be true to you. Twenty years from now it won’t really matter how your hair looked, or what cloths you wear. What will matter is how you loved, what you learned and how you applied this knowledge. Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others temporarily think you are. A genuinely good character always shines and inspires in the long run. Focus on the positives always. Be happy with who you are now, and let your positivity inspire your journey into tomorrow. Everything that happens in life is neither good nor bad. It just depends on your perspective. And no matter how it turns out, it always ends up just the way it should. Either you succeed or you learn something. Just because you are struggling doesn't mean you are failing. Every great success requires some kind of struggle to get there. You cannot expect victory while planning for defeat. Even though you cannot control everything that happens, you can control your attitude toward what happens. Use your struggles and frustrations today to motivate you rather than annoy you. You are in control of the way you look at life. So stay positive, appreciate the pleasant outcomes, and learn from the rest. Your positivity will help encourage those around you! Love, Light & Peace .

Jai Maa Kali Jai Maa Shakti

The name Kali first appears in the Atharva Veda, a collection of hymns and mantras. However she is not a goddess but rather a fierce black tongue, one of seven belonging to Agni, the god of fire. It is another 400 years before Kali is described as an individual in her own right, when she appears around 600 CE in the Devimahatmya as a battlefield goddess personifying the wrath of Durga. Her aspect at this time is terrible – a skeletal and frightening crone, coloured black (a literal interpretation of her name), wearing animal skins and carrying a khatvanga, the skull-topped staff associated with tribal shamans. Other texts of the period associate her beginnings with Shiva. 

The Linga Purana describes how Shiva asks his wife Parvati to defeat the demon Daruka, whom only a female can kill. Parvati merges with Shiva, reappears as Kali and does the deed, but at a terrible cost; her bloodlust becomes uncontrollable, only calming when Shiva intervenes. The Vamana Purana has a different version. When Shiva addresses Parvati as Kali, "the black one," she is offended and performs certain austerities to lose her dark complexion, ultimately generating Kali as a separate entity.

Kali is often associated with Shiva. Her very name is the feminine form of Kala, an epithet of Shiva, thus tying her inextricably to him. She is regarded as the Shakti (power) of Shiva, and he her consort. She is closely linked with him in many of the Puranas and when she appears besides Shiva, she plays an opposite role to that of Parvati. While Parvati soothes Shiva, neutralising his destructive tendencies, Kali actively provokes and encourages him. As scholar David Kinsley states, “it is never Kali who tames Siva, but Siva who must calm Kali”.

The Hindu God Ganesh

The Hindu God Ganesh - An Elephant Headed Deity 

Ganesh is one of the best known and loved deities in the Hindu pantheon of gods, and indeed is the most recognized of the Hindu gods outside of India. But who is this elephant headed fellow, and why is he so popular?

Ganesh (also spelled Ganesa or Ganesha and known as Ganapati, Vinayaka and Pillaiyar) is the Lord of Good Fortune who provides prosperity, fortune and success. He is the Lord of Beginnings and the Remover of Obstacles of both material and spiritual kinds. Interestingly, he also places obstacles in the path of those who need to be checked.

Because of these attributes, Ganesh is widely revered by almost all castes and in all parts of India, regardless of any other spiritual affiliations. His image is found everywhere, in many different forms, and he is invoked before the undertaking of any task. Ganesh is also associated with the first Chakra, or energy wheel, which underpins all of the other Chakras and represents conservation, survival and material well-being. He is considered to be a patron of the arts and sciences and of letters. Devotees believe that if Ganesha is worshiped, he grants success, prosperity and protection against adversity. In a lesser known role, Ganesh is also the destroyer of vanity, selfishness and pride.

The attributes and characteristics of Ganesh have evolved over many centuries of Indian history. Several of the sacred Hindu texts relate myths and anecdotes associated with his birth and exploits and help to explain his distinct iconography. He is popularly held to be the son of Shiva and Parvati, although the Puranas (ancient Hindu and Jain texts narrating the history of the Universe and describing Hindu cosmology, philosophy and geography) disagree about his birth, stating that he may have been created by Shiva, or by Parvati, or by Shiva and Parvati, or may simply have been discovered by Shiva and Parvati. It is a little known fact outside of India that Ganesh has a brother Skanda, who is worshiped particularly in southern India as the embodiment of grace, bravery and love of virtuous deeds.

Iconic representations of Ganesh show considerable variation, his form changing over time from that of a simple elephant in earliest depictions to the Ganesh we know today, typically having the head of an elephant and a large rotund belly. He is generally shown with four arms, although the number may vary from two to sixteen. When in the four-armed configuration he usually holds his own broken tusk in his lower-right hand and a laddoo sweet in his lower-left hand which he tastes with his trunk. An axe or goad is held in the right upper hand and a noose is held in the left upper hand. In a modern variation, the lower-right hand does not hold the broken tusk but is turned toward the viewer in a gesture of protection and fearlessness (the abhaya mudra). Each item carries it's own important spiritual significance and they (and the number of arms used to carry them) may vary to include a water lily, mace, discus, rosary, bowl of sweets, musical instrument, spear or staff, depending on the specific symbolic intended by the artist.

A clay image of Ganesh set into a wall

Ganesh may be portrayed as standing, seated, dancing, crawling as a child (with his favourite laddoo sweet in one hand), or even seated on his mother's knee. When seated, he may be crossed legged or with one leg tucked under him in the position known as "royal ease". His mount or vehicle is usually the humble mouse, often shown at his feet looking adoringly up at him and holding his laddoo sweet in his paws. The combination of elephant and mouse represents the removal of all obsticals of any size and the ability of Ganesh to control even the most unpredictable of creatures and situations.

There exist a large number of legends, myths and stories relating to Ganesh and his appearance, all reflecting the wealth of symbolism that attends him. The most famous is how he came to have an elephant's head. It is said that the goddess Parvati, wishing to bathe, created a boy and assigned him the task of guarding the entrance to her bathroom. When her husband Shiva returned from one his interminable battles, he was denied access by Ganesh and killed the boy in a fit of petulant rage, striking his head off with his sword. Parvati was understandably upset and so to soothe her, Shiva sent out his warriors to fetch the head of the first dead creature they found, which happened to be that of an elephant. The head was attached to the body of the boy and he was brought back to life. The elephant's head symbolizes unmatched wisdom and the gaining of knowledge through reflection and listening. And because of his role as his mother's doorkeeper, he is often placed facing doorways to keep out the unworthy.

Some of the stories surrounding Ganesh are conflicting in nature, for example how his tusk came to be broken. One popular story is that he broke it off himself in order to write down the Mahabharata, one of the world's longest epic poems, as it was dictated to him by the sage Vyasa. In the process of writing, Ganesh's pen failed and so he snapped off his tusk as a replacement in order that the transcription not be interrupted. The broken tusk therefore symbolizes sacrifice and reiterates Ganesh's role as patron of the arts and of letters. However, another version of the broken-tusk story emphasis's Ganesh's loyalty and devotion. In this account, his father Shiva decided to take a nap and asked Ganesh to guard him. A proud Brahmin warrior named Parashuram came to visit Shiva but was stopped from waking him by Ganesh. Parashuram was furious and fought with him, finally throwing his ax at his head. Ganesh stopped the ax with his tusk which broke, giving him the nickname Eka-danta, or "One Toothed."

Another common icon associated with Ganesh is that of the snake. According to one Purana, Ganesha simply wrapped the serpent king Vasuki around his neck. Ganesh may also be portrayed using the snake as a sacred thread, aloft in both hands, coiled at his ankles or as a throne. However the best known story of all concerns Ganesh wrapping the snake around his stomach as a belt. According to the legend, on one of his birthdays, Ganesh went from house to house accepting offerings of sweet puddings. Out on the road his mount the mouse stumbled, having seen a snake and become frightened, with the result that Ganesh tumbled off. His stomach burst open and all the sweet puddings fell out. Unwilling to leave them on the ground for all to see, Ganesh stuffed them back into his stomach and, catching hold of the snake, tied it around his belly. Seeing this, the moon in the sky had a hearty laugh at his expense. Annoyed, Ganesh pulled off one of his tusks and hurled it at the moon. Once again, the symbology behind the mouse, snake, Ganesh's belly and its relationship to the moon on his birthday is highly significant, his belly representing as it does the entire cosmos which is held together by the cosmic energy of the snake kundalini.

With the association of benevolence, intelligence and strength that comes with his elephant countenance and the delightful stories that surround his creation, it is easy to understand why Ganesh is revered so highly in his homeland. But why is he also loved throughout the world? From the 10th century onwards Ganesh became the principal deity of the traders and merchants who went out of India seeking commercial trade. In later centuries many Hindus migrated to other countries and took their culture, including Ganesh, with them. Buddhism has a particular affinity for Ganesh, representing as he does the kindest of principals associated with personal success. And since the 20th Century, Ganesh has become a favourite mascot of Western countries, partially because of the westerner's love of elephants but also because of the rewards Ganesh promises when present to oversee daily affairs. Ganesh has even made appearances on the iconic television show The Simpsons - on one particularly memorable occasion Homer tries to offer him a peanut and is admonished by Apu for his irreverence.

Ganesh is also often associated with the goddess of luck and prosperity, Lakshmi, and the two form a typical motif on many protective Indian amulets, providing a double whammy to the wearer in the form of success and wealth married together.

How to get rid of your problem ?

A man once came to see the Buddha to get help with his problems. After the man had told the Buddha one of his problems and asked for help, the Buddha replied: “I cannot help you get rid of that problem.”
The man was surprised that the Buddha could not help him in this regard, but he told the Buddha about another problem; he thought to himself that the Buddha should at least be able to help him with that problem. But the Buddha told him “I cannot help you with that problem either.”

The man started to get impatient. He said: “How can it be that you are the perfectly Enlightened Buddha, when you can’t even help people get rid of their problems?” The Buddha answered: “You will always have 83 problems in your life. Sometimes a problem will go, but then another problem will come. I cannot help you with that.”

The baffled man asked the Buddha: “But, what can you help me with, then?” The Buddha replied: “I can help you get rid of your 84th problem.” The man asked: “But what is my 84th problem?” The Buddha replied: “That you want to get rid of your 83 problems.”

“Meditation is meeting eternity in the present moment. It is resolving every problem as it comes. It is resolving every tension as it creeps in. It is facing the challenges of life in a non-fearful way.” ~Vimala Thakar

Hariyali Teej

Hariyali Teej - July 26, 2017

Hariyali Teej in 2017 is scheduled to be celebrated on the 26th of July. Also known as Shingara Teej, Hariyali Teej revives its significance from the bond of Shiva-Parvati. This is the day when you can win the love of your heartthrob.

What Is Hariyali Teej ?

Teej is one of the most celebrated festivals in the country where the bond of marriage is paid special reverence.

On the day of Teej, women are given the liberty to add colors to their lives, while on the other hand, they voluntarily observe strictness for the welfare of their husbands.

Festival of Teej has attained almost same popularity as Karwa Chauth in India.

Each of the Teej festivals has its own significance and add vibrancy to a woman's life in their unique way. In this article, we will discuss each and everything about Hariyali Teej. Let's begin with a short description of Hariyali Teej, as it is approaching soon, this year.

When Is Hariyali Teej in 2017?

Hariyali Teej is celebrated on the third day of Shukla Paksha (bright fortnight) in the Hindu month of Shravan. Hence, this day is also known as Shravani Teej. The day of Hariyali Teej marks a special significance in the lives of Hindu women. They observe Hariyali Teej Vrat (fast) to safeguard their husband's life. The day is also popular as Singhara Teej and Hariyali Teej (due to dialectic variations).

There's a lot more to know about Hariyali Teej or Singhara Teej; before having a detailed look at the festival of Shingara Teej, let's first know when it will be celebrated in 2017, according to the Hindu calendar.

Why Is Hariyali Teej Celebrated?

According to the Hindu mythology, it was the day of Shravani Teej (Teej falling in the month of Sawan), when Lord Shiva had finally accepted Goddess Parvati as his wife. It wasn't easy for Parvati Devi to impress Lord Shiva; hence, we should know the story behind this divine union.

Goddess Parvati admired Shiva and longed to marry him. But Lord Shiva wasn't easily touched by everyone. Hence, Goddess Parvati underwent a penance by observing a fast for many years to impress her ideal man. Finally, Parvati Devi was accepted by Lord Shiva as his wife. It is said that the union took place on the third day of Shukla Paksha in Sawan month. Since then, this day came into being and gradually, became the day when women observe Hariyali Teej Vrat for the longevity of their husbands.

How to Celebrate Hariyali Teej ?

Following are the rituals that are to be followed on the day of Hariyali Teej:

ü  Mehndi/Henna is applied on the palms.

ü  A fast is observed by married and unmarried women.

ü  Married women are gifted with Shringar (Henna, Bangles, Sweets, Sindoor/Vermilion, etc) by their parents-in-law.

ü  Green clothes and bangles are worn by women.

ü  Prayers are offered to Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva.

Towards the end of the day, women sing and dance in praise of Goddess Parvati.

Shravani Teej is one of the most celebrated festivals in Rajasthan. In the state, Teej Mata (Goddess Parvati) is worshiped in a princely manner. Processions of Teej Mata are taken on the streets, where tourists flock to witness the grandeur. Apart from this, songs and dances are performed amidst the streets of Rajasthan.

This was all about Shingara Teej and the way it is celebrated in our country.

Hariyali Teej is more than a mere festival; it is the festivity of the nuptial bond of marriage. The day of Shingara Teej signifies a woman's devotion toward her family and how she stands in front to protect her family from shady situations.

Tanah Lot Temple, in Tabanan, Bali,.

Tanah Lot Temple, in Tabanan, Bali

This Temple Sit Atop A Rock In The Ocean Tanah Lot Temple, in Tabanan, Bali, is one of the most significant landmarks of the country owing to its dramatic location in the ocean and beautiful sunset backdrops it provides to tourists.

This ancient Hindu temple is dedicated to the guardian spirits of the sea and sits atop a huge rock in the sea. At high tide, the walkway gets submerged in water and the incoming waves can get pretty ferocious.

The rock on which it sits is continuously being shaped by ocean tides over the years. Tanah Lot means 'Sea Temple of the Earth' in local language. The area surrounding this temple is highly commercialized and people are required to pay to enter the area.

Tourists enjoy the sunset from the park opposite the temple, its oddly shaped rock silhouetted against the crimson colour of the dusk.

It is one of the 7 temples on the south coast of Bali, paying homage to the guardian spirits of the sea.

According to the legend, venomous sea snakes are believed to guard the temple from evil spirits and intruders
