About Vedic Scriptures

"I feel the urge to escape from everything, but I've been reminded that Indian girls, who embody the spirit of Durga and Kali, don't run away; they face challenges, fight, and emerge victorious in battles."

You think CAA is discriminatory against Pakistani, Bangladeshi and Afghanistani Muslims?

Yes, it is. They've earned it by persecuting all the minorities there.

You believe in minority marginalization right? Why back out now?

Why harbour this selective support system towards the minorities of your country but not your neighbours who have been treated akin to dirt and assassinated brutally in unimaginable numbers since independence?

A GODSEND PERQUISITE

ॐSUNDARKĀṆDॐ

The Sundarakānda — as also the whole of the Rāmāyana- has many spiritual, literary, and narrative aspects. In the great epic poem of Rāmāyana, this chapter marks the acme of Vālmiki’s literary and poetic excellence, and so it is sundara, that is, beautiful. There are other interpretations as well. It is suggested that it is sundara because it relieved Sītā of her sorrow. Sundara can mean a messenger, and the Kānda includes the message sent by Rāma to Sītā. Sundara is also a name for an intermediary who establishes a mutual contact between a hero and a heroine, as Hanuman did in the case of Rāma and Sītā. Indeed, the Rāmāyana is the word form of Śrī Rāma, and the Sundarakānda, which is the fifth of the seven chapters, is the Lord’s heart. Thus, when reading the Sundarakānda, one is entering into Śrī Rāma’s own heart.

Śri Hanumānajī is the hero (nāyak) of this Sundarakānda. In the quest for devotion (Bhakti), as seen in the Sundarakānda, wherein Rāvana—who represents a deluded intellect—has kidnapped Sītājī—who represents devotion—every spiritual aspirant (sādhaka) determined to reach the goal must learn to face the various obstacles and challenges posed en-route, from Śri Hanumānajī, who crosses the formidable ocean (bhav-sāgara—representing the material ocean of transmigration) by remembering the Lord’s name at all times.

This heroic chapter demonstrates that just as the sky of Śri Hanumānajī’s heart is ever-permeated by the presence of Śrī Lakṣman, Śrī Sītājī and Śrī Rāmajī (wielding a bow and quiver of arrows); so too, is Śrī Rāma’s heart filled with the valour and presence of Śri Hanumānaji’s feats in the Sundarakānda.

The recovery of something lost is sometimes described as Sundara, and in this section, the topic dealt with is the discovery of the abducted Sītā. The study of the Sundarakānda is considered equivalent to the study of the whole of the Rāmāyana as far as gaining spiritual merit is concerned. Just as the Upaniṣads are said to contain the supreme purpose of the Vedas, the Sundarakānda is supposed to be the heart of the Rāmāyana.

Invoking the grace of Śrī Hanumānajī grants a spiritual aspirant strength (bala), worldly knowledge (buddhi) and spiritual wisdom (vidyā), whilst also removing all suffering (kleśa) and vices (vikāra). Yet, what is the ultimate fruit of one who chants this Sundarakānda?

 सकल सुमंगल दायक रघुनायक गुन गान। सादर सुनहिं ते तरहिं भव सिंधु बिना जलजान॥ Dohā 60 | Rāmacaritamānasa | Sundarakānda |

Meaning: A recital of the virtues of Śrī Rāma (the Lord of the Raghus) bestows all blessings. Those who reverently hear them, cross the ocean of mundane existence without any boat (any other means), says Śrī Tulsīdāsaji.

Cambodia :

Seven-headed Naga King at the entrance of World's largest religious monument, Angkor Wat built by Hindu king Suryavarman II

This is a huge temple complex located near Siem Reap in Cambodia. It was built by Khmer kings more than a thousand years ago. The complex has a large number of temples. The main temple is the only one that is well preserved. Other temples are in ruins. There is an international effort to restore some of the temples. The temples must have looked majestic when they were built.

A large stones were cut precisely and placed over each other without any bonding material to hold them together. The Khmer kings embraced Hinduism and Buddhism. The carvings are delicate and superbly detailed.
