Asteroid Kaali 4227

Mythology:

Also referred to as Mahakali, Bhadrakali, and Kalika (Sanskrit: कालिका), is a Hindu goddess who is considered to be the goddess of ultimate power, time, destruction and change in Shaktism.[1] In this tradition, she is considered as a ferocious form of goddess Mahadevi, the supreme of all powers, or the ultimate reality. She is the first of the ten Mahavidyas in the Hindu tantric tradition.She is regarded as the ultimate manifestation of Shakti, the primordial cosmic energy, and the mother of all living beings. The goddess is stated to destroy evil in order to protect the innocent. Over time, Kali has been worshipped by devotional movements and Tàntric sects variously as the Divine Mother, Mother of the Universe, Principal energy Adi Shakti .She is also seen as the divine protector and the one who bestows moksha, or liberation.

As per my interpretation the placement of asteroid kaali in someone's chart is somewhere they are blessed with divine power to put efforts and change things, the placement of ultimate power , somewhere they can start their tantra /spiritual practices with , place where they can attain moksha, where Kali protects .

Chakras - What they really are

(I managed to salvage this post written by @rue-cimon from an old deactivated account. I copied it down here because this was too good a post to lose.)

Chakra literally means "wheel" or "circle" in Sanskrit. The concept of chakras originates from Hinduism in ancient India. These are focal points used in a variety of ancient meditation or yoga practices. These practices are collectively called "tantra".

Although the concept is frequently found in early traditions of Hinduism and are often mentioned in the Vedas, beliefs around chakras differ between various Indian religions. Buddhist texts consistently mention 5 chakras, whereas Hindu texts and sources speak of 6 or 7 chakras.

Early Sanskrit texts speak of them both as meditative visualizations combining flowers and mantras and as physical entities in the body. Within kundalini yoga, various breath exercises, visualizations, mudras, kriyas, and mantras are focused on manipulating the flow of subtle energy through chakras.

Chakras are also present in Ayurvedic traditions.

The belief behind chakras is that human life simultaneously exists in two parallel dimensions, one is the physical body and the other is psychological, emotional, mind, non physical (the subtle body).

The aforementioned subtle body is energy, while the physical body is mass. The psyche or mind plane corresponds to and interacts with the body plane, and the belief holds that the body and the mind mutually affect each other. The subtle body consists of energy channels connected by nodes of psychic energy called chakras.

The chakras - in Hindu and Buddhist texts - are said to be arranged in a column along the spinal cord, from its base to the top of the head, connected by vertical channels. Tantric traditions strive to awaken, master, and energize these chakras through yoga and often with the help of a teacher.

The esoteric traditions in Buddhism generally teach four chakras. In some early Buddhist sources, these chakras are termed as manipura (navel), anahata (heart), vishuddha (throat), and ushnisha kamala (crown). However, a system of five chakras is common among classes of tantra in Tibetan Buddhism. These five chakras are basal, abdominal, heart, throat, and crown, and each chakra corresponds with an element, a Buddha, and a bija mantra.

The more common and most studied chakra system incorporates six major chakras along with a seventh center generally not regarded as a chakra.

The chakras are traditionally considered meditation aids. The yogi starts from lower chakras and progresses to the highest chakra located in the crown of the head, in the journey of spiritual ascent.

In the Hindu kundalini and Buddhist candali traditions, the chakras are pierced by a dormant energy residing near or in the lowest chakra. in Hindu texts she is known as Kundalini, while in Buddhist texts she is called Candali or Tummo.

Some terms and definitions:

Tantra: Esoteric traditions in Hinduism and Buddhism that developed in India mainly during the middle of the 1st millennium CE. The term tantra, in the Indian traditions, also means text, theory, system, method, instrument, technique, or practice. A key feature of these traditions is the use of mantras.

Kundalini yoga: A type of yoga focused on channeling energy through the chakras.

Mudra: A symbolic or ritual gesture or pose in Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism. Mudras have meaning in many forms of Indian dance and yoga. In hatha yoga, mudras are used in conjunction with pranayama (yogic breathing exercises), generally while in a seated posture, to stimulate different parts of the body involved with breathing and to affect the flow of prana and is associated with consciousness in the body. Mudras are also used in tantric practices.

Kriya: Practice within a yoga discipline meant to achieve a specific result. The Yoga Sutra of Patanjali defines three types of kriya, namely asceticism, study, and devotion. Such yoga is called kriya yoga. Kriya is a Sanskrit word that literally means "to do" or "to work".

Mantra: A sacred utterance, a sound, a syllable, word, or phonemes, or group of words in Sanskrit, Pali, and other languages. They hold spiritual and religious significance. At its simplest, the word "om" serves as a mantra. It is believed to be the first sound which was originated on earth. It creates a reverberation in the body which helps the body and mind to be calm. In more sophisticated forms, mantras are melodic phrases with spiritual interpretations such as a human longing for truth, reality, light, immortality, peace, love, knowledge, and action. Not all mantras have literal meanings but rather are simply uplifting.

Ayurveda: An alternative medicine system with historical roots in ancient India.

[king-of-wrath]

Satan rolled his eyes. "You seeing this shit, Steve?" he asked his personal assistant, pointing to the gigantic stadium-sized TV in his throne room.

"...Respectfully, Your Wrathfulness: what 'shit', specifically?"

"These knee-jerk reactionary crybabies bitching and moaning about the opening ceremony for the Summer Olympics!" the Sin began to explain before launching into vicious mockery.

"'OWO, SO SATANIC! AN AFFRONT TO CHRISTENDOM, UWU! WHO AWWOWED SUCH A BWASPHEMOUS CEREMONY TO TAKE PWACE? HOW CAN THE WORLD COME TOGETHER IN THE SPIWIT OF SPORTSMANSHIP WITH SUCH DIVISIVE ANTI-CWISTIAN WHETORIC SHOVED DOWN OUR THWOATS, UWUUU~'"

"First of all, I had NOTHING to do with this. I did not put Lady Gaga and a bunch of drag performers up to this, I did not give this ceremony my blessing, none of my cultists were involved on any level and not a single fucking pentagram or 'Hail Satan' can be found on that stage. Where in yon fuck are these humans getting 'Satanic' vibes?"

"Secondly, PULL YOUR HEADS OUT FROM THINE CAVERNOUS ASSES AND TAKE A WHIFF OF FRESH AIR! Not everything is about you! Nothing about what happened on stage was about you! What they performed was 'the Feast of Dionysus'. Anyone calling it 'The Last Supper' is not only factually wrong, but grossly uncultured swine."

"Third and MOST importantly: Christ-stans, you are NOT the 'poor widdle uwu so oppwessed' demographic anymore! You haven't been the minority since the fucking Council of Nikea---which was, -knock knock- Hellooo~, 1700 YEARS AGO! In a global population of 8 billion, your religion comprises over 2.2 billion. Add your Abrahamic cousins and you outnumber Hindus and Bhuddists combined."

"You are not being crucified. You are not being thrown to lions as food. You are not being immolated as human tiki torches for monarchs' garden parties. You are not getting dragged outside your homes and told 'renounce Jesús' or die. Your churches and monasteries aren't being looted by Vikings."

"Every developed suburb has at least one local church per square mile, at minimum. For a lot of the Western world, you got as many churches as McDonald's and Starbucks locations---denominations aplenty! You even have hundreds of channels devoted to providing sermons on the hour, if you somehow can't reach any of God's houses."

"But go ahead: keep on bitching and moaning about people not doing exactly what you want. Keep hating anyone different. Keep throwing your children under the bus because they want to do more than dance to your little tune forever. Keep trying to outlaw what you don't like or understand. Keep trying to transform public schools into churches. Keep telling young women 'Don't go to college, get a man'. That'll definitely put asses in the pews!"

[thoughtlessarse]

Narendra Modi’s electoral success in Gujarat between 2001 and 2014 and on the Indian scene since then stems from his novel blend of populism and Hindu nationalism (Hindutva). Hindutva grew out of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (National Volunteer Organization, RSS), a paramilitary-style nationalist group founded in 1925 to bulk up young Hindus both physically and morally so they could stand up to Muslims, who were depicted as a danger to the majority. Modi joined the RSS as a child and devoted his life to it, pursuing no other careers and even living apart from his wife. He rose through the ranks, eventually becoming the chief minister of Gujarat (his home state) in 2001. The following year, he oversaw an anti-Muslim pogrom that left some 2,000 dead— a strategy of religious polarization that won him the December 2002 regional elections. Similar successes in 2007 and 2012 made Modi the obvious prime ministerial candidate for his Bharatiya Janata Party (Indian People’s Party, BJP) in 2014. But he left behind the RSS tradition of collective decision-making, putting himself front and center and striving to connect directly with “his” people. Rather than relying on the activist network, Modi held rally after rally where he showcased his flair for speechmaking. He also founded his own television channel, worked social media, and employed a revolutionary strategy: using holograms to simultaneously lead one rally in hundreds of places. Modi even distributed masks printed with his likeness to deepen supporters’ identification with him. In short, he saturated the public arena so as to embody the masses—a task made easier by his low-caste origins, on which he has built a complete narrative. (He worked as a teaboy in his father’s shop.) However, the “masses” meant only the Hindu majority, which he was busy stirring up against one target in particular: Muslims. As in the 2014 elections, in 2019 “Moditva”—Modi’s idiosyncratic hybridization of right-wing nationalist ideology, Hindutva and a personality cult—triumphed on the strength of BJP landslides in the north and west. This success allowed him to bend to his will both the RSS and the BJP—whose MPs had ridden to victory on his coattails—fashioning a government of faithfuls and a parliament of yes-men. The other institutions soon succumbed too—even the Supreme Court, once a beacon of independence. In the summer of 2014, Modi advanced a constitutional reform that would have changed the appointment process for judges, until then picked by a collegium of peers. His co-optation, opposed by the entire political class, would have replaced the collegium with a five-member commission. The Supreme Court eventually declared the amendment unconstitutional, but Modi still got his way: Of the nominees submitted by the collegium, his government finalized appointments only for those he liked. The court thus resigned itself to proposing candidates who were apt to please him.

the meaning of Agni: his name**

growing up as Arshad Satyendra Iyer in a privileged socio-economic class, he lost his faith after seeing his father face no consequences for his many immoral actions. without any particular connections to others, he did whatever put him ahead in life. in his case, it led to injuring and murdering innocent people

after being caught and sentenced to death, he didn't care about his incoming execution because he didn't have anything/one to live for- then Soma cut the rope and declared him a new man, one named Agni

any small amount of research will tell you that Agni is the name of a Hindu god of fire who is a messenger between humans and the divine. not only does "rebirth in fire" parallel the fact that he left his old life completely behind to begin anew, but his divine strength being channeled through a human body particularly mirrors his namesake

and why does he live now? for Soma. his connection to the world, which is why his devotion to the prince is so strong and all-encompassing. he's never had a reason to want to live before Soma started his life over

next in #agnicharacterprogression I'll look into his connection with Soma

**Agni's and Soma's character traits are somewhat based off of Japanese stereotypes about Indian people, which I am trying to not reinforce, but if you spot any mistakes please let me know!

स्वामी शैलेषानंद जी महाराज || Shrimad Bhagwat Katha

[aartibhardwaj]

*Almighty God Kabir Parmatma's departure to Satlok Bodily*

Who is the Absolute Supreme/ Imperishable God who never takes birth from the mother's womb, neither dies, Who Incarnates with a body, departs with a body?

Supreme God Kabir Saheb comes in every age,but does not take birth from mother's womb, He Incarnates with body, departs with body. He comes from Satlok and appears in the form of an infant. By removing the evils spread in all religions, by Imparting true devotion, by erasing the difference between caste and religion, He establishes one human religion.

505 years ago, Kabir Sahib was departing to Satlok, at that time Hindu-Muslims were getting ready to fight over Kabir Ji's body, then Kabir ji explained that my body will not be found, whatever you get, divide it in half. Fragrant flowers were found in place of His body. Even today there is evidence of this in Maghar. There, both Hindu and Muslim have built memorials at the same place.

Supreme God Kabir Sahib appeared on a lotus flower in the Lahartara pond of Kashi on Shukla Purnmasi Vikrami Samvat 1455 (year 1398) of Jyestha month and went to Satlok in body from Maghar on Shukla Ekadashi Vikrami Samvat 1575 year 1518 of Magh month.

Apart from Kabir Saheb, all the Gods and their Incarnations are in the Cycle of birth and death. That means they are not imperishable.

Kabir Sahib's Says that :

Ram Krishan Avtaar hain, Inaka Nahi Sansar.

Jin Sahab Sansar Kiya, So Kinhu Na Janmya Naar..

That is, all the incarnations of the Trinity Gods (Rajgun Brahma ji, Satgun Vishnu ji, Tamgun Shiv ji) and their father Brahm (Kaal) are also in birth and death.

While Supreme God Kabir Dev / Kabir Saheb is imperishable, He is beyond birth and death, He is the creator and Master of all .

There is Speech of Divine God Kabir Sahib

Kabir, Na Mera Janm Na mera Garbh Basera Balak Ban Dikhlaya

Kashi Nagar Kal Kamal par Dera Tahan Julahe me Paya

505 years ago Supreme God Kabir Saheb had appeared in the form of an infant on a lotus flower in Lahartara pond in Kashi in the year 1398. From there the childless couple Neeru Neema had taken Him. At that time God had lived for 120 years and propagated True Spiritual Knowledge to His beloved souls He also Opposed social evils and hypocrisy. By erasing casteism and communalism, He tied everyone into One thread of Humanity.

In 1518, Almighty Kabir Sahib went to His own abode, Satlok with Body. And avoided the fierce civil war between Hindus and Muslims .

Kabir Parmeshwar had said that when 5505 years of Kalyug will pass, then I will come again on the earth and Will destroy all religions / sects and make them one.

Exploring the Bull: A Symbol of Power Sacrifice and Fertility in Ancient Cultures

Exploring the Bull: A Symbol of Power, Sacrifice and Fertility in Ancient Cultures 🌍 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxx9V9kRPac Exploring the Bull: A Symbol of Power and Fertility in Ancient Cultures 🌍 In this captivating video, We navigate the 7 seas with Flat Arch'E 5000 to delve into the rich history and esoteric meaning of the bull across various ancient civilizations. From the Mesopotamian sacred bulls of Anu to the revered Apis bull in ancient Egypt, the bull has always been more than just a farm animal; it’s a potent symbol of strength, fertility, and divine connection. In ancient Sumer, the bull was honored as a celestial creature, representing the power of the heavens and the earth's fertility. It was linked to the god Enlil and Innanna, embodying the life cycle and seasonal renewal. Similarly, in the fascinating world of Babylonian mythology, the Bull of Heaven is a formidable character in the Epic of Gilgamesh, symbolizing both wrath and fertility.

The superiority of Hinduism

In Gita Chapter 18 Verse 62, the giver of the knowledge of Gita has said,

Tam', ev, sharanam, gachha, sarvabhaven, India,

Tatprasadat, param', shantim', sthanam', prapsyasi, shashwatam.. 62।।

That is, O India! Take refuge in God in every way. Only by the grace of that God will you attain the supreme peace and the eternal supreme abode i.e. Satyalok. But Hindu religious leaders engaged in devotion to Shri Krishna.

Narmadeshwar Shivling: A Sacred Symbol of Devotion and Divine Energy

In Hindu spirituality, the Narmadeshwar Shivling holds a unique and revered place. This sacred object, often associated with profound devotion and divine energy, is a vital symbol of Lord Shiva. Known for its purity and spiritual significance, the Narmadeshwar Shivling is more than just a religious artifact; it embodies a deep connection to the divine and serves as a focal point for worship and meditation.

What is the Narmadeshwar Shivling?

The Narmadeshwar Shivling is a specific type of Shivling—a representation of Lord Shiva, one of the principal deities in Hinduism. The term "Narmadeshwar" refers to Shivlings that are carved from stones found in or around the Narmada River, a sacred river in India. These Shivlings are believed to have been naturally formed or shaped by divine intervention, endowing them with unique spiritual qualities.

The Narmada River, which flows through the central part of India, is considered highly sacred. In Hindu tradition, it is believed that the river was created by Lord Shiva himself. As such, stones from this river are imbued with his divine energy, making them highly revered among devotees.

Historical and Spiritual Significance

The historical significance of the Narmadeshwar Shivling is deeply intertwined with Hindu mythology and spirituality. According to ancient texts and traditions, the Narmada River has a direct connection to Lord Shiva, which is considered the source of its purity. As a result, Shivlings made from stones sourced from this river are thought to possess special divine attributes, enhancing their role in spiritual practices.

In Hindu philosophy, the Shivling represents Lord Shiva in his abstract, formless aspect. Unlike depictions of Shiva with human features, the Shivling is a geometric form that symbolizes the infinite and eternal nature of the divine. It is a potent symbol of creation, preservation, and destruction—the three fundamental aspects of existence according to Hindu beliefs.

Symbolism and Spiritual Energy

The Narmadeshwar Shivling, like all Shivlings, is a symbol of cosmic energy. Its cylindrical shape with a rounded top signifies the unmanifested and infinite nature of Lord Shiva. The smooth, often polished surface of the Shivling is thought to represent purity and the unchanging essence of the divine.

Devotees believe that the Narmadeshwar Shivling channels divine energy, creating a sacred space conducive to meditation and spiritual growth. The energy radiating from the Shivling is said to aid in the purification of the mind and soul, helping individuals align themselves with higher spiritual truths.

Rituals and Worship

Worshipping the Narmadeshwar Shivling involves a variety of rituals, each designed to honor Lord Shiva and cultivate a deeper connection with the divine. One of the central practices is the Abhishekam—a ceremonial bathing of the Shivling with sacred substances such as water, milk, honey, and ghee. This ritual is performed to purify both the Shivling and the devotee, symbolizing the flow of divine grace and energy.

Daily worship of the Narmadeshwar Shivling at home or in temples typically includes offerings of flowers, fruits, and incense. Mantras and prayers dedicated to Lord Shiva are recited, creating a spiritually charged atmosphere. Special festivals, such as Maha Shivaratri, see more elaborate ceremonies, with devotees coming together to celebrate and honor the divine presence embodied by the Shivling.

Metaphysical Aspects

From a metaphysical perspective, the Narmadeshwar Shivling is more than just a physical object; it is believed to be a conduit for divine energy. According to Vedic texts, Shivlings, especially those from sacred rivers like the Narmada, help in aligning the worshipper’s energy with cosmic forces. This alignment is thought to enhance spiritual experiences and aid in personal transformation.

The natural formation of the Narmadeshwar Shivling, often smooth and cylindrical, is symbolic of the cosmic order. The base of the Shivling represents the foundation of the universe, while the central projection signifies the cosmic axis or the center of creation. This form reflects the belief that Lord Shiva is the ultimate source of all existence and divine energy.

The Devotee’s Experience

For many devotees, the Narmadeshwar Shivling is a source of profound spiritual inspiration. The act of worshipping this sacred Shivling fosters a deep sense of connection with Lord Shiva, promoting inner peace and spiritual clarity. The experience of engaging with the Shivling is often described as transformative, offering insights into the nature of the divine and the self. In summary, the Narmadeshwar Shivling stands as a powerful symbol of devotion and divine energy. Its origins from the sacred Narmada River, combined with its representation of Lord Shiva, make it a cherished object of worship. Whether through daily rituals or during special festivals, the Narmadeshwar Shivling continues to inspire and elevate the spiritual lives of countless devotees, bridging the gap between the mortal and the divine.
