Who Is Saraswati Devi ?

[ This is a Guest Post by Mr.C.S.Moorthy (Thank You). You can send us your guest posts through the YOUR CONTENT page]

Rig veda is the oldest treatise in our culture which dates back to many thousands of years. The Rishis who compiled the Rig Veda did mention Saraswati, Ila and Bharati in the mantras. They did not formulate the mantras they were mantra drashtas. They saw the mantras in action.
What they saw in action they have faithfully narrated through the mantras.Since they had this extraordinary perception they were known as 'vipras'.

What did they see? They certainly did not see any unique being sitting on a lotus with veena in her hand and wearing a white saree. They saw the marvellous activity of the human system in its intricate working. They found that human body was made up of a large number of cells. Broadly there were three groups: a) neurons, b)blood vessels and c) flesh and muscle. Neurons were unique because they were concerned with sensory activities. They named it Saraswati. Brain can carry on its function only because of neurons which ensures connectivity with every nook and corner of our body. We cannot see these neuron cells as they are minute. Neurons are assisted in their activity by Axons (Ila) and Dendrites (Bharati) as modern science has discovered only in the last 50 years or so. Modern science has derived their knowledge through mathematical formula a tentative finding at best!

Solar Eclipse : rituals to overcome miseries

A Solar eclipse is a phenomenon which has made many civilizations look up in awe. It is of course scientifically known that a solar eclipse happens when the moon comes in between the earth and the Sun. But, there are still a lot of mysterious aspects related to eclipses. We are still unaware of the changes that go on in the environment while a solar eclipse occurs. Speaking scientifically or astrologically, the Sun is predominantly responsible for maintaining life on Earth.  It is said that the time in which an eclipse occurs leads to an exponential increase in the growth of dangerous micro-organisms , and is hence not a safe time even speaking on a scientific basis. Thus , a solar eclipse is a time which requires caution and devotion to protect oneself from any possible miseries. It i advisable to burn dry neem leaves and dry cow dung during solar eclipses so that the fumes will keep the growth of micro-organisms under control. The following is a special and powerful mantra that can help to relieve a person's horoscope from being affected by the misfortunes related to an eclipse :

om sadashiva sarveshwara raksha raksha mahadeva

ॐ सदाशिव सर्वेश्वर रक्ष रक्ष महादेव 

People on whose star the solar eclipse occur, should chant the above Shiva mantra 108 times on the solar eclipse day. After the mantra chanting, it is highly advisable to go to a nearby Shiva temple and perform a Mrityunjaya homa. [There is a solar eclipse on May 20, 2012]. Om namah shivaya

HINDU – The Amazing Coconut

Dear Gurudevs,

I have seen a posting in another group criticizing badly the eating and drinking habits of people as a hindrance to the Hindu unity, which made me write this.
Hindu is not an individual; Hindu is a society(samooham)!

The best comparison is the Coconut. Coconut has many parts – The outer covering with ‘coir’. Inside it the hard shell. Within that the sweet, soft, clean and white fruit & the sweet, clean and refreshing juice.
The white fruitious part can be compared to the knowledgeable persons [let us term it the brahmins] and the juice ‘the Customs & Rituals’. 

The Brahmins are CREATED from the nectar(customs & rituals). Thus the term ‘Dwija(born again)’. All are born as ‘human’; by virtues become ‘brahmin’. They get mature immersed in the sweet & pure nectar, while a part also contributes to the hard shell. The hard shell & ‘coir’cover protect the brahmins(or the Jnanis, or temples, or Sanathana Dharma). The protection can be physical and/or economical. In return the brahmins keep-up their own quality and impart or radiate good quality upto the outer shell. (If you doubt that the inner fruit does not affect the coir cover, just ask the coconut vender next time you go to drink a tender coconut). 

The ‘coir’ cover is the 1st layer of protection. It is vulnerable and not hard. But being numerous & fibrous it does not allow easy aggression. Only through determined action can this part be removed. It may get bruised; still the coconut is good. It keeps the coconut floating even in a flood. But once the coir cover is gone, the coconut is under attack. One can remove the nectar easily. A coconut from which the nectar is removed, decays fast. Hence it is the necessity of brahmins to upkeep the ‘less knowledged’ around them. They cannot simply be expelled telling that they are unclean & unsweet. It is not in their nature. A thing cannot be soft as well as strong at the same time. They ought to be as they are, but should be imparted knowledge to keep them in their own good health. 

The coconut is WHOLE with the crown. 
Without the crown also it is called a ‘coconut’.
Without the coir shell is also called a ‘coconut’.
Without the nectar is also called a ‘coconut’.
Without the hard shell is also called a ‘coconut’.

But,

Coir shell without the ‘white fruit’ is called just ‘coir’.
Hard shell alone is called just ‘hard shell’.
White fruit alone is still called ‘coconut’.

However,
Big and beautiful the whole coconut be, if the white fruit is bad, the coconut is termed bad.
The outer shell and inner shell are still used for coir making and burning.

Bad(improper) nectar (customs & rituals) can decay the white fruit.
Decayed white fruit decays the nectar. 
The decayed white part is simply thrown away with a curse.

So it is a must for the ‘Hindus’ to co-exist looking after their respective dharmas. 
Everyone should know that they are born in their status due to their ‘poorva janma karmaphala’. So the ‘luckier’ should further improve their status by continuing ‘good karmas’ and the ‘unlucky’ do more ‘good karmas’ without complaints to compensate for their previous debt.
AND ALL BE CAREFUL ABOUT THE WIDE SPREAD FELLING OF THE TENDER COCONUTS, NOT ALLOWING THEM TO MATURE. VOLANTARILY SOME COCONUTS BE AVAILABLE TO BE USED AS SEEDS.

Pranams,

How To Get Rid Of Ghosts & Evil Entities

How to get rid of ghosts , is not a question that all of us necessarily relate to, but there a large number of people who may be forced to find the answer to such a critical dilemma. The presence of a ghost may not necessarily be very evident in all situations. Depending on why the soul is existing in the 'preta avasta' (state of a ghost), the ghost may be violent or peaceful. You may have frequent ailments, repeated accidents or unexplainable fears as a result of the presence of ghosts in your house. The following is a powerful ritual that will help to get rid of ghosts and other evil entities from your house.

On a Friday morning , after finishing your bath, select an appropriate location in your house to perform the ritual/pooja (preferably in the north-east corner or any other clean area). Then wipe the floor with a wet and clean cloth. Now place a lamp in the center of the cleaned area. Place 5 threads with ghee(clarified butter) and light the lamp.The lamp should be kept alight throughout the day. Now place 3 fistfuls of rock salt in a copper bowl and take a few lemons (one lemon for each room in your house, plus 4 extra lemons). Place the lemons on a plate beside the lamp. Now take a few toothpicks and poke each lemon. Then keep some bananas on a plate, beside the lamp.

Now place a photo of Lord Narasimha / Nrisimha behind the lamp. Then take a pinch of rock salt with the ring finger,index finger and thumb of your right hand. Now chant the following mantra :

om ugrasimhaya ugrarowdraya maha moorthaye raksha raksha narasimha devaya namah 

ॐ उग्रसिम्हाया उग्ररोव्द्राया महा मूर्थये रक्ष रक्ष नरसिम्हा देवाय नमः 

Then put the salt over the poked lemons. Repeat this process until all the rock salt in the bowl is over. Now light some camphor in front of the lamp and pray to Lord Narasimha for protection. Then keep chanting om maha narasimhaya namaha ॐ महा नरसिम्हाय नमः  , and take the bowl of salt in your left hand. Now go around your house and sprinkle a pinch of the salt after every step that you take. Then place the lemons, one each, in your rooms. The extra four lemons have to be buried in the four sides of your house, at a depth of 4-5cm. [For people living in apartments/flats, sprinkle the salt around the border walls of your flat, and hang the lemons in the four sides of the flat]. Then wash your hands and feet thoroughly. Give the banana away to animals/birds. This ritual helps to form a powerful shield from ghosts for your house. Also, later when you invoke the power of Lord Narasimha into the home, it will form a container for the immense positive power, and hence help to vanquish the ghosts. At noon, light some incense sticks beside the lamp, and light some camphor in front of the lamp.

In the evening, after you finish bathing, sit beside the lamp. Take a clay pot (or any other vessel which can bear heat) and place it beside the lamp. Now place some camphor and wooden chips in the pot and light it. Light another lamp beside the pot. Then take a fistful of dried whole black pepper on a plate. Now take each pepper in your right hand hand chant the following mantra :

om veerasimhaya ugrasimhaya rowdrasimhaya narasimhaya swaha

ॐ वीरसिम्हाय उग्रसिम्हाय रोव्द्रसिम्हाय नरसिम्हाय स्वः

After chanting the mantra, put the pepper into the pot. Keep repeating the ritual until all the peppers are over. (Put few wood chips in between to keep the fire burning). Then take 3 fistfuls of rice in a bowl. Keep chanting the mantra used for the black peppers and put a grain of rice into the pot after each repetition.

Now take a bowl of water in your right hand. Take some water in your right hand and chant the following mantra : om maha narasimhaya namah ॐ महा नरसिम्हाय नमः , and sprinkle the water all around and inside the house. Sprinkle everywhere in your house, including all metal objects, dresses and mirrors.

With the infinite grace of Lord Narasimha , the ghosts / evil entities will not be able to stay in or at the premises of your house anymore. Om
