Fruition of the Great Sacrifice.</title><content type='html'>Bhrigu maharishi returned to the earth. Now he was perfectly appearing scholarly eminent. So far the hermitage monks of Nymisharanya were very anxiously expecting to receive the learned sage Bhrigu, also very eagerest to hear the massage gathered from him on paying distinguished visit to the trinities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The sage Bhrigu entered the Tapoovanam of Nymisharanya and came to the pre-arranged place of sacrifice. He had honourable welcome. As a result of Vaikunta’s i.e. Elysium’s new knowledge enlightenment a brilliance flare found in his eyes. The deified boon made him as so demure Sattvika i.e. gentlemanliness and able foremost to foretell happenings; and that he would not have gained by thousands of year’s austerities. The all hermitage people offered him due obeisance’s. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On receipt of respectful homage and assuming honourable seat Bhrigu maharishi, found that pin drop silence was there in the assembly. From the preceding dais the Kashyapa mahrishi prelude to say, “The sage Bhrigu, on behalf of us paid visit to all trinities, let us hear the Divine Message what he has brought…”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now the Bhrigu maharishi started addressing-&lt;br /&gt;“Priya Tapoodhanare; Servajana hita chintakare,&lt;br /&gt;(Dear Monks, Well wishers of all man kind)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Erudited monk’s great aspiration is to see the sobriety and solemnity of common people who faded up with poverty and melancholy.  There will be a powerful universal force behind us, which controls and automates itself in all consentaneous events. It is its autocratic authenticity ever lasts in our worldly actions. We are ought to go on right path, and practice assiduously with steadfast belief and fidelity to our inner divinity to reach the eternal bliss, other than worldly attachments. The then we can understand how to possess with attained Sattvika Shakti i.e. alone the universal law of ruling.  The same sattvik power we will have to utilize in all our daily actions; by separating other bad features and elements. Which will be a means to gain Sanmarga and Bhagavad Bhakti, as Veda says ‘Brahma Satya; Jaganmitya’&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Mainly the aim of this great sacrifice is to eradicate all our ignorances by the divine grace of wisdom. To make such many ignoramus people also to be impeccable. At the moments of auspicating yajna, the sacrifice we are inviting all the divinites. Among all the three divinities of the trinity Shri Hari existed as Sattvika Swaroopi at his excellence supremacy. We have to call him as Shri Hari Sarvoottama. He is befitted now to our reminiscence and to receive not only the fruition of this sacrifice, but all fruitful actions of our dedicated goodness. In the meanwhile we have to pray Him for wipe out of our sins, to tranquilize us towards Sattva, by revoking all those fiddling actions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“You monks are real delegates of our spiritual world; deep thinkers to have deified petronage for the benefit of all Man kind irrespective of race, caste, stage of on this earth’s worldly life. No hyperbole that is known every one wants to be influence by the highest excellence force of almighty.  But, to prove the same divine message of truism Shrihari is descending to the earth. He exists as Sattvik Swaroopi for His disciples and devotees and for those sinners who surrender themselves at his feet to get themselves fumigated.  All divinities are behind there coming forward to support morality, mainly the auspicious Shiva and Brahma the creator. We shall pray those divinities on hymns. Therefore, with all our powers of austerities let us perform successfully this great sacrifice. &lt;br /&gt;-Likewise the great sage Bhrigu had put an end to his hypercritical speech. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thus assuming the forecast and goodwill, there was a divine proclamation in the name of Lord Mahavishnu.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8287591186844968699-4876289842342403994?l=balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/feeds/4876289842342403994/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8287591186844968699&amp;postID=4876289842342403994&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/4876289842342403994'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/4876289842342403994'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/2008/07/9-fruition-of-great-sacrifice.html' title='9.

In his majesty the divinity Mahavisnu lying contemplatively with closed eyes, on his delightful smiley face; unbounded words expression of significance truth; spreading like soundless waves all over four distant ends of the universe. &lt;br /&gt;It is not known to the peoples living in earth at what precious moment He opens his compassioned eyes. &lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;

The Vishnu’s spouse Mahalakshmi had fondling interest at her swami’s sacred chest was serving herein liven pleasure, pressing smoothly his feet with her full fidelity.  Although not apprehensible on a foresight, staying at her beloved swami’s abode Mahalakshmi also called as Gruha Lakshmi deposes amity, that how to obtain wealthy blessings; for those gentleness gallantries. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the Elysium of Mahavisnu was at pleasant gaiety, at the same time the sage Bhrigu rushed through seven doors of Elysium one by one running like hubris elephant, thinking in the mind about the past events of satyaloka and kailasa, and perceptively presumed there may not be different picture here also. He entered the Elysium reaching closed to Sheshashayana the Mahavishnu, who was reclining on 1000-headed serpent; in his similar sate of solidity. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the Bhrigu was fully upset…. ‘What is going on here? What happened to Mahavishnu, the protector of dharma? Is he meditatively sleeping at his smiley face; neglecting sattviq people suffering from poverty and exploitation. Criminality is go on increasing why? Is there nothing to do for Him? To retain harmony and sobriety of the poor…?’ likely misconception engraved Bhrigu went to hostile attack, whispering unknowingly in his inner side “Where it has gone the protector’s Satt-Shakthi, is it hiding silently in His chest…?” Maharishi Bhrigu kicked at once the wide chest of Mahavishnu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mahalakshmi puzzled got up immediately.&lt;br /&gt;Mahavishnu went nearby Bhrigu. Very calmly he bowed to sage Bhrigu telling him-“Oh maharishi! Did you get pain into your smooth leg…?” then by go on pressing the leg of the Bhrigu, Vishnu removed the egoistic eye from His sole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oh my God…”Bhrigu shouted by pain. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mahalakshmi still at her gabble gainsaid,-“oh swami…! What is this indignant? He may be pious Brahmin a great sage, but senselessly futile; ill mannered. You are foregoing his flagitious action…? A misunderstanding may arise in all the trinity that you are weakened at your decision.  But you being my deity, heartily dearest, how can I forbear this…?” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oh Devi, you can’t understand, away from worldly the unbounded principles of Elysium and its supermacy of divine morality. Do you know how I am particularly related to my devotees at all times…?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mahalakshmi was not consoled. She was not in a position to hear her swami’s luscious words. Gone-ahead to say,-“I cannot believe, at this time. Has it been done unknowingly? Being a great sage was he not aware of your esteem virtues? He made a deliberate insult to my swami’s heartily abode where I kept my liveliness. No, I do not tolerate and stay further here at all …” She hastened to quit vaikunta.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Devi, you being the resource of all inner forcible strength, knows that there must be a specific reason behind this situation happened..?” Mahavishnu again tried to comfort his beloved spouse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, Mahalakshmi said- “However, I descend to earth to take up hard penance and austerity for the goodness of forecasts… Please do not stop me here.” saying Mahalakshmi also called as Gruhalakshmi went away quickly from the Vaikunta.&lt;br /&gt;Mahavishnu stood silent in grief of bottle neck with no words to mouth.&lt;br /&gt;“Hey, Shrihari, Mahavishnu, please Pardon me, all this blunder happened because of my egoistic arrogance....”sage Bhrigu begged for pardon. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mahavishnu went nearby sage Bhrigu, continued to say,&lt;br /&gt;“Hey! maharishi you came here for a great purpose, was it fulfilled? You were knower of my previous incarnation of Sri Krishna. Where I conveyed Sattvik message to the universe, along with a message for each individual, as they have to find out own salvation and liberation within thy self conscience only; beyond all worldly attachments. I always blessed for such disciples and devotees.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On hearing the words of Shrihari, the Mahavishnu, “Oh my divinity, the protector of solemnity from worldly evils, I came here to examine you, but I myself got examined by your glorified greatness. Because of me your beloved Gruhalakshmi the glorifier of your abode went away furthest.” Repenting Sage Bhrigu set his two hands palm appealingly and bow downed fully before mahavishnu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Hey Bhrigu Why do you worry? It is common for me to face the consequences in my every incarnation, say similarly one more after recent deluge.  So as I have repeatedly to proclaim again and again the Sattvik message to the universe.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oh Lord, we are all monks celebrating a fecund sacrifice for the benefit of Man kind on the earth. Your ubiquity known to all of us and now you are the Sattvik-Prabhu, to receive the fruition of our sacrifice. On behalf of those sages I pray for your gracious presence on the religious celebration.” sage Bhrigu requested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mahavishnu extended the impunity with blessings to the sage Bhrigu.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8287591186844968699-6120248064122885332?l=balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/feeds/6120248064122885332/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8287591186844968699&amp;postID=6120248064122885332&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/6120248064122885332'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/6120248064122885332'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/2008/07/8-mahavishnu-protector.html' title='8.

Since then, she has been made to recollect that she was Yashodha the mother of Sri Krishna, in his previous incarnation i.e.during Dwapara yuga. As the mother of Sri Krishna in Dwapara yuga, Yashodha did not seen his son’s wedding. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And during the time Sri Krishna promises to full fill her desire that she can see his son’s wedding as “Srinivasa kalyanam” on the next coming age of era of Kaliyuga.  Now the time is nearing fast for the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Srinivasa!  Oh my son! At least come now nearer to me; because you knew the mother’s heartily feeling.” Bakulamalike said expecting to embrace him. Srinivasa pleased to her affection.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then Bakulamalike took him to her small hermitage which is nearby Varahaswamy’s Temple and gave him some fruits, milk to eat, and also told to take rest on sleeping comfortably.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How omnipotent Lord Srinivasa could go to such a long asleep by forgetting the whole world’s affairs and its further salvations!   After his intake of fruits and milk Srinivasa appeared to be got just asleep. On few moments passed away his soul’s another one specific divine spirit expelled to an irradiation in a state of dream; therein found Lord Adi varahaswamy stood before him.

Shiva the Auspicious…</title><content type='html'>Of all hills at north Himalayan Mountains the peak of Kailasa Mountain (Kailasa  is said to be the highest holy place) filled with coquetry of snowflake silvery shining on rays of early rising sun. All the hill valleys were echoing smoothly by Shivaguna Sankeertana of those praiseworthy songs of divinity Shiva. The musical melodious tympanic rhythms were moving in the smug of snow white and air waves, it was real serenity all around full enchanting. &lt;br /&gt;The lord Shiva at his finery romantic dance with spouse Parvati fell in flirtation and not aware of the presence, gone furthest in extremity.  The  floridity of the seen was very much fomenting  even  the  great sage Bhrigu already  achieved  a  state  of  mind precisely away from worldly  attachment appear  to be disturbed for a few moments.  On next moments he immediately recalling mind the purpose of  his visit to the abode of  Shiva. "Mheswara.." Bhrigu shouted to drew his attention(Shiva is also called as Maheswara) as if  the whole mountains of  Kailasa  is  trembling.&lt;br /&gt;At her first quick sight at sage Bhrigu, Parvati awakened from blushing stage; got up away from the Lord Shiva.  Shiva  also called as Mruga charmamabaradhara, deer skin wearer at all times be quiet silent in his soft solitude space; now sensually flirt disturbed more, from romantic dual dancing appeared to go entirely different; as violent solicitous. He said furiously-&lt;br /&gt;“Hey sage, you were knower of dharma sastras, then how did you have through fare to my abode of solitude. I will finish you for your very fierce savage.” holding his trident came to attack the sage Bhrigu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The great sage Bhrigu stopped the attack, on his deity power of austerity.&lt;br /&gt;Then he said- “Maheswara! Why not you became aware, a sage like me who had renounced all sensual desires entered into at your solitude? I came here on a big purpose, we the sages are about to celebrate a great sacrifice on the earth and decided to offer fruit of the sacrifice to a Divinity who possess all Threegunas, the three modes of nature. But, you being notable as Shiva the Kapala-Kamodaladhara, Bhasma-Swaroopi, Smashana-Viragi were impatiently gone absonant, came furiously to kill a Brahmarishi? You were so pride at your finery pretty dancing. You at last fell yourself in the mode of nature Tamasa. I curse you; here onwards people living on the earth not to worship your beautiful idol, instead they worship only in the form of Shivalinga.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the moment hearing the words of Bhrigu, the spouse of  Shiva Parvati confounded. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shiva was repenting; as he behaved fulsome on a great sage without premonition, by the time Bhrigu was went away from Kailasa like typhoon. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oh, mahrishi please listen me…!” Shiva called him loudly; it was just resounded from all around mountain flakes but not reached to sage Bhrigu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oh! Shive-Parashakti Swaroopini why this has happened…?” Shiva Asked to his spouse Parvati; who is goddess also the means of almighty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Parvati so called as Parmeswari smilingly said-&lt;br /&gt;“Oh Swami, you may be some times appear furious, but you were named after auspicious Shiva, knower of all the auspicious forecasts. You being Satyasundara Swaroopi, just think yourself why it had happened? There must be a great reason. Shortly a significant True Message will be communicated to the whole universe. Believe me; what happened was happened and it is for the sake of forthcoming good events only.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shiva pleased. At any cost he was bow down to out-worldly synthesis. And he said- “Devi, if that was the precept for splendor of the universe; why not we too take part in it...?”&lt;br /&gt;Parvathi Devi just smiled agreeably.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8287591186844968699-621382486258666548?l=balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/feeds/621382486258666548/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8287591186844968699&amp;postID=621382486258666548&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/621382486258666548'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/621382486258666548'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/2006/10/8-shiva-auspicious.html' title='7.

His spouse Sarswati Devi was also sitting beside. On that quorum full assembly of Yakshs, Kinnaras, Ashtadikpalaks,all other goddesses and Gandharvas as divine musicians were gathered there. Brahma the  creator-proficient of  four Vedas was chanting slokas, elucidating hidden spiritual treasures to the universe, upholding  the essences of  Vedas not intangible physically,  but  necessarily to understand soulfully, beyond materialistic world. He was also revealing the achievers ubiquity and gained uttermost lucre. &lt;br /&gt;By the time great sage Bhrigu entered into gathering.  Brahma seen him negligently; without offering welcome. Tenderly the prideful Bhrigu also not offered obeisance, went himself and sat on a higher frontal seat in that assembly. Instead of pleasantness fan to that situation suddenly clouded by a big veilIt was known to Brahma, the sage  Bhrigu was fuddle  in his pride; which made absonant  not to reverend him. &lt;br /&gt;Bhrigu’s face faded to got ablaze. He started thinking  why Brahma neglected me? At least he would know his abodes formality.  At the same moment Brahma asked Bhrigu,&lt;br /&gt;“Sage Bhrigu did you know the norms of this deistic assembly? Then how dare you to  occupy  frontal seat yourself  without offering  obeisance to the chair person in this  assembly?” &lt;br /&gt;Without any response the sage Bhrigu was seen maffick.&lt;br /&gt;However, Brahma didn’t know the forecast at the time to forebear. He said furiously-”Hey sage Bhrigu do you mean yourself great amongst all mahrishis? Are you a so great like Atri mahrishi who made to play all three divinities  as three  infants? And, are you so supreme like Gautama mahrishi, who cursed Mahendra the king of  heaven?”&lt;br /&gt;The sage Bhrigu smiled again gazing ironically, as his assumption was indubitable, as behavior of Brahma was foment by mode of nature Rajasa. &lt;br /&gt;Brahma again said-”Hey! Bhrigu rishi why do you ignominious?  See, you would learn a lesson for your insolence.” &lt;br /&gt;“Hey! Brahmadev! Stop your rampage utterances. First of  all, you should know your hospitality; if any distinguished visitor comes at your abode. I came here on a big purpose, on behalf  of many monks who are about  to celebrate a great  sacrifice on the earth, and about to decide  a divinity  to whom  the  fruition of the great sacrifice to be offered. &lt;br /&gt;"But, you were impatiently gone meanness, and exhibited the mode of nature Rajasa; like ignoramus. So you are not befitted for worship. I curse you, here onwards people living on the earth not to worship you.” sage Bhrigu cursed the Brahma and about to return from there.&lt;br /&gt;Brahma got up suddenly and called him “Bhrigu…” appealingly. Whereas sage Bhrigu already rushed out  of  Satyaloka not ready to hear any word. &lt;br /&gt;Brahma was very much upset. &lt;br /&gt;Now, Devi Saraswati said- “Oh my master, not to worry! Your Vedas ever symbolizes the light of God.  Vedas are more than a Sun’s cosmic energy.

Sage Bhrigu- before examining the divinities…</title><content type='html'>Sage Bhrigu born in inherent of Brahma was notable among great seers. The philosophical intuitions are not measurable by science.&amp;nbsp; Bhrigu mahrishi being empirically meritorious having luminous ideas.&amp;nbsp; His skillfulness in spiritual presentations beyond materialistic facts and figures made him a phenomenon and demagogue in the field.&amp;nbsp; Drawback with him was overwhelming egoism, as there was a peculiar eye on his sole of right leg.&amp;nbsp; Surprisingly he walks not caringly as if he is able to measure the whole world at one stretch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course!&amp;nbsp; He might have third-eye sense of meticulous, his absurd egoism itself was hiding his all pre-eminences. He considered himself invincible in the spiritual realm. He also presumed he is quite fit to examine the three divinities.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sage Bhrigu before entering into Trilokas the abode of triniy, on his way he started thinking himself about the three modes of nature&lt;i&gt;-Thrigunas_ Sathva, Rajasa, Tamasa (the human body of principles of doctrines),&lt;/i&gt; and how these three modes works out either in the area of divinities or in the area of common people.&amp;nbsp; These three modes of nature_Thrigunas are reasoning for sensational and worldly materialistic actions of all human beings ever since exists in their life following its'&amp;nbsp; consequences; and eventually impacts on future. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Bhrigu starting to&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt; go on &lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt; conceive himself the features of these Thrigunas__&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000;"&gt;Sathva&lt;/span&gt;- the fortitude of gentility-the quality of goodness, self-relaliztion, god consciousness, knowledge enlightenment, contented .&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000;"&gt;Rajasa-&lt;/span&gt; the principle of activity- furious, aggressive, excitement, indiscrimination, illusions. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000;"&gt;Tamasa&lt;/span&gt;- the principle of inertia- darkness, ignorance, nescience, indecent, violent, criminal.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;In the previous incarnation of MahaVishnu as Sri Krishna&amp;nbsp; said about these Thrigunas for man's self-awareness.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000;"&gt;Ari-shadwargas&lt;/span&gt;- Kama, Krodha, Moha, Mada, Matsaryya, Lobha these are all six enmities of human nature _ over sexual temptation, anger-the furor, gallant, fuddle, jealousy and luster are the factors of Rajasa and Tamasa be subjugated by the quintessence of Sathva.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #cc0000;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000;"&gt;Chaturvidha Purushartha- the four values of life_&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #674ea7;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dharma, Artha, Kaama, Moksha_ Righteousness, Wealth, Sex and Salvation are achieved finding the absolute truth on the power of Sathva.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sri Krishna said in Geeta-Sathva drives one to joy and Rajas to furor, while Tamasa clouds one’s wisdom asmuch darkness and ends in violent incites to crimes.&amp;nbsp; Overpowering Rajas and Tamas, Sathva prevails, Overpowering Sathva and Tamasa, Rajas prevails and even so overpowering Sathva and Rajas, Tamasa prevails.&amp;nbsp; Therefore, if a man who attained the highest state of sathva said to be in balanced mind; attained gentility, gentleness for healthy and wealthy life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="color: #cc0000;"&gt;How to achieve the highest state of Sathva? &lt;/b&gt;_&lt;br /&gt;First it is to achieve fortitude of gentility...&amp;nbsp; To someone it comes naturally as inborn nature of gift said to be “Samskara jannya.”&amp;nbsp; Also, it comes necessarily in the present birth by assiduous practice by yoga sadhana. The yoga first starts through meditation and puts an end to all sorrows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #cc0000;"&gt;What is meditation?_&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a three step process to reach stage of serenity, clarity, and bliss.&amp;nbsp; As three gunas the three modes acts on our physical nature of body,&amp;nbsp; meanwhile in our self-consciousness three states of mind is also there- Dharana, Dhyana and Samadhi.&amp;nbsp; It is to reach the first Dharana, the Dhyana final one contemplative state-Samadhi sthiti.&amp;nbsp; All the three steps are to be practiced having deep inner sight with firm faith and God-consciousness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Normally the mind will be in our materialistic desires.&amp;nbsp; As soon as we sit in meditation all sorts of turbulent thoughts occupy to disturb us, forced to abandon meditation. To turn the mind to our inner sight it is necessary to watch our Prana vayu_ life breathing, without applying any force.&lt;br /&gt;Our sages evolved holy syllables whose sound vibrations are conductive to entering into deep meditation.&amp;nbsp; In glowing terms about the efficacy of the panchakshari the five lettered mantra 'Om&amp;nbsp; Namo Narayanaya' inducing us to spontaneously delve into deep meditation.&lt;br /&gt;The five Syllables_ na, ra, ya, na, ya- are the bijaksharas or seed-letters of the five elements of creation-&amp;nbsp; Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether of which our body is made.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;Flesh represents the earth, blood represents water; the body heat that helps digesting food represents fire, the prana or life-giving force represents air; and the mind represents ether.&amp;nbsp; These holy syllables creates vibrations that render the mind pure and directing it inwards, leading ultimately to the awakening of the Kundalini the spiritual energy, that lies dormant at the base of the spine, the muladhar chakra in each individual. Provided each one should follow the principles of yama, niyama, prathyahara, and pranayama.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;In addition, better to know main seven chakras of our body.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;These are Sahasrara (Crown), Ajna (Agaya), Vishudda (Throat), Anhata (Heart), Manipura (Solar plexus), Swadhisthana (Hara), Muladhara (Root). These chakras act as intermediaries receiving energy from higher cosmic levels and transmitting it throughout the body.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the location of chakras three major nadis &lt;i&gt;Ida, Pingala and Sushumna &lt;/i&gt;meet together forming these centers of concentrated pranic energy. These energy centers act as an intermediary or bridge between the physical body and astral body. If we understand this, we can easily realize how mind and body affect each other. Any mental reaction or impulses create vibrations in astral body; in turn physically to each major chakra which has link with such vibrations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;On final state of contemplation the Sathva raise to its luculent stage.&amp;nbsp; At this infinite state the soul starts praying the almighty by forming astral body, which travel in cosmic space, and also can have control over the time limits between birth and death.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To start the day on first taking bath gives relief from drowsiness, stress and strains. Then to sit in meditation preferably on woolen blanket for at least 30 minutes will irradiate our mind that enable to lead the whole day nicely.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Despite of man’s all illusions, taint some incidents the power of Sathva is ever sprout in people of gentlemanliness and grows up as Satth-Shakti the special life force. No obstacles prevent or divert&amp;nbsp; from that rigidness; with unflinching faith in God.&amp;nbsp; The contentment and purity lie within they-self; even there may be ups and downs in life.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;People who are having Sathva guna always dwell on the earth.&amp;nbsp; They may seem to be less in numbers, but their genteel characters and some of them have mystical experiences which shows how they can take time to live, because the world has so much to give; with solace in the life.&lt;br /&gt;People are there earning money by ruling power, corruption, cheating, or by theft, robbery such gained wealth was not on bestowal by endearing goddess Sri-Lakshmi. There is no happiness in it and will not stand on a long time with peace of mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Of course! The very worldly materialistic needs and such comforts are based on the wealth! But not in almost all cases on the blessings of Goddess Adi-Lakshmi who is Adi-Shakti also, the divinity named after wealth and the mighty resource in Sanatana Hindu Dharma.&amp;nbsp; She is such a goddess said to be transitory not staying in one place and in one individual, although she has great respect to dwell permanently in those who self-possesses Sathva-guna the quality of goodness.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Mahalakshmi’s blessings may come slowly, but become permanent at place where Sathva-guna is overpowering Rajasa and Tamasa in each individual. So she blesses and bestows to those individuals like Maha-Saraswati and Maha-lakshmi. Where there is Rajo guna and Tamo guna&amp;nbsp; she becomes there as Maha-Kali the angry deity. Whereas, in a King of an empire who fail to find Dharma and not able to up hold the justice she leaves that king and kingdom no doubt.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...The sage Bhrigu was come out of his deep thinking. He was in street smartness, nearing to Trilokas for examining three divinities. In fact, all the three divinities are always having vested interest in yogic meditation! Then how it shall be assessed on an overview?&amp;nbsp; Which divinity is so powerful in Sathva? This big question was also fuming in his mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No doubt he was a remarkable seer, but now he is going to lose his foresight. In fact, Bhrigu was not aware of Mahalakshmi’s greatness as mahasadhvi who had fidelity to her swami’s Sathva guna.&amp;nbsp; Hence, on his distinguished visit to trinities, Bhrigu himself was going to be examined by the great divinity, and become resonate for deliverance of Lord’s the Divine Message to the universe.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8287591186844968699-1813816854373788757?l=balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/feeds/1813816854373788757/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8287591186844968699&amp;postID=1813816854373788757&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/1813816854373788757'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/1813816854373788757'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/2006/10/6-sage-bhrigu-before-examining.html' title='5.

Purpose of the Great Sacrifice</title><content type='html'>It was Vedic times.&amp;nbsp; One early morning on the bank of the river holy Ganges-Ganga Sun rays were spread afresh. Cooling breeze was blowing from all around.&amp;nbsp; On the bank of Ganga hermitage premises of Kashyapa mahrishi flavouring like new flower blossoms.&amp;nbsp; His disciples of hermitage were doing their morning ablution, some disciples practicing Vedic chants that's moving melodiously in buoyant waves of deep silence.&amp;nbsp; Some other dwellers of hermitage were collecting ingredients to be used in the sacrifice such as dairy products etc... Totally there was fervent eagerness in arranging the great auspicious ceremony of sacrifice_ yajna&amp;nbsp; in Kashyapa maharishi’s directions. At the same time, devarishi Narada entered that Tapovanam- the garden of austerities, where the great sacrifice going to be performed. He got warm welcome from all sages and dwellers of hermitage. Instinctively, devarishi addressed the gathering...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Honourable great sages,&lt;br /&gt;your lineage seers were the fundamentalists of ontological world; knowledge sharing pundits, the knower of mystery of earth creatures,&amp;nbsp; human beings and its beginning and the end. Those former great Sages were the first among the first preachers of jnana and adhyathma the knowledge and spirituality. Thus&amp;nbsp; your ancestor’s contribution for reforming&amp;nbsp; the Paleolithic of Stone Age people is unique.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As per Rig Veda Samhita the enlightened sages first observe, and then they make a deep study of the secrets of God’s creation. They form their own versions filled vigour and suited to times.&amp;nbsp; You are the beginning social reformers of our culture.&amp;nbsp; Whatever you think and offer is consigned to posterity.&amp;nbsp; The spiritual reality promoted by you is to wipe out man’s ignorance, illusions, unwanted materialistic living style and passions, which created good impressions among people...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;"The seed of devotion_Bhakthi sowed ever before by your erudite monks have had been grown up like big banyan trees in our generations; which is really appreciable. Your mystic knowledge with intangible yogic powers attained by God consciousness spread radiantly every where.&amp;nbsp; Your spiritual reality is as so powerful it livened up man's life.&amp;nbsp; The kingdoms norms- rulings and social conducts implemented on the same basis of Dharma shastras only.&amp;nbsp; The Dharma Shastras direct us to do Nitya-karma the obligatory daily rites, the Naimitthika-karma the circumstantial duties, and complies certain rules and regulations for social harmony.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Unfortunately, the Dharma is diminishing as a routine in this age of Kaliyuga.&amp;nbsp; The greedy people doing evil works, corruptions, exploitations, adulteration, killing innocents, and some people involved in doing the devilish demon activities...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Mahrishis, during this religious great sacrifice you are inviting all the divinities, venerate them with due obeisance.&amp;nbsp; You are also paying homage to all those respectful statesmen.&amp;nbsp; Your moral principles and religious rites always contributes spiritual legacy for the future. In spiritual realm you have proved that to experience the divinity within us, the sincere intense devotion is the way.&amp;nbsp; It is the self-realization by taking oath in the name of almighty to purify our mind and to attain perfection in life.&amp;nbsp; Thereby get rid off all meaningless inhuman activities, making pollution free life for healthy environment...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;“It is splendid, in this sacrifice the abstention of passionate desires, offering subvention for those suffering from poverty and starvation also included.&amp;nbsp; In the name of Lord rather than a religious ceremony it has many significant and healthy customaries evolving human values.&amp;nbsp; Indeed, it's blissful inspiration for the next generation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"O! Great sages, I am still in doubt, despite of all these goodwill and wellness expectations, how you are going to offer the fruitfulness of this great sacrifice to a Chief Divinity at the end?&amp;nbsp; Who is that ubiquitous divinity always reasoning for the cosmos, and befitting to in His urbanity.&amp;nbsp; Have you sages already unbiased at your choice?” Narada stopped to observe with little pause...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After hearing the deliberations of devarishi all sages surprised to look at each other and uttered at a time-"Can&amp;nbsp; we not offer the fruitfulness of this great sacrifice to all the trinity the three divinities of Triloka?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again devarishi Narada said- “sages, you are performing this great sacrifice praying the pervador by whom this universal cosmic force bestowed for our life betterment and welfare.&amp;nbsp; He must be a ubiquitous one divinity the supreme saviour.&amp;nbsp; He is ever upholding the universal entity professing the Sattvik Shakthi.&amp;nbsp; You have to find out who is that divinity in Trilokas?&amp;nbsp; You sages have to decide to send some one profound erudite to examine all the three divinities in Triloka..”&lt;br /&gt;-by gazing impressively at once towards the whole gathering, Narada set his sight a while on Bhrigu mahrishi, to him he seems to be befitting therein amongst great sages; who sat on a little upper seat.&amp;nbsp; Then devarishi quit away from that assembly of Tapovanam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far, many profuse deliberations were conducted in that renowned Tapovanam, and no such a situation arose to lead ambiguity.&amp;nbsp; But now the question raised by devarishi was astonishing.&amp;nbsp; Then from the preceding chair at his prevision Kashyapa mahrishi looked at gathering to declare- “it is better we shall leave this great quest of examining three divinities to Maharishi Bhrigu only” he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;The whole gathering unanimously agreed to the nomination of Bhrigu mahrishi, on noting down the authentic status of him in that spiritual surroundings. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On hearing the resolved statement of the above meeting Bhrigu went out of gentleness to pride.&amp;nbsp; And, it was also a reason of an eye on his right leg’s sole; from whereat made his egoism too much. Even then he was slackened internally, that examining the three divinities is not so an easy assignment for him.&amp;nbsp; Anyway in outward he was very smart to go on pride.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8287591186844968699-3123476583862755272?l=balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/feeds/3123476583862755272/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8287591186844968699&amp;postID=3123476583862755272&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/3123476583862755272'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/3123476583862755272'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/2006/10/5-offering-fruitfulness-of-great.html' title='4.

It is vivid and virtuous in its role of our culture and civilization. Our people are happy to see God in millions of visions and understanding Him in millions of supernatural consequences as exemplified from long before. Apart from our the Holy universal scripture Bhagavadgeetha, we have many authoritative sources on our culture and traditional heritage of Hinduism, which is the way of life. Therefore our ancient sage’s contributions on realisation of God differ in various ways from Vedic times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inasmuch Hinduism we are worshiping millions of God; in millions of Visions. In indic culture it is the means of understanding God in different ways, as experienced differently by our ancient sages, who were great in finding Him soulfully without any worldly wanting. Which cannot be measurable by any scientific methodology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The symbol ‘Om’ used in Tirupati with the dictum phrase- Dharmo rakshati rakshitaha”- Dharma protects those who protect it. Dharma meant here as Sanatana dharma refers to everyone. “Om” which represent three important triads: earth, atmosphere, and heaven; the major Hindu gods, Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva; and three Vedic scriptures-Rig,Yajur and Sama Veda. Thus Om mystically embodies the essence of the universe and uttered at the beginning and end of Hindu text, prayers, chants, and meditation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sri Venkatesha puranam based on Vedic scriptures depicts trigunathmaka tathva (tripartite principle) which refers to the whole world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;How GOD exist?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;Does God exist or not?  Man has been posing this question from thousands of years. Even today, if you put questions about how God exist to some body, each individual give answer in his own way and view or some may say 'No'. Instead why don’t we put such questions to our inner self? Why don’t we think as insider whether we are really in God; instead of where is God?  Why don’t we experience ourselves that he exist in our subconsciousness; and direct us from inside before putting our good or bad ideas into actions out side?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In our man’s life there is the Hindu God, the Muslim God, and the Christian God and so on… Every one of these Gods is omnipotent. They are supposed to have performed miracles and saved humanity on the truism. Believers will tell you their Gods still have the capacity to perform such miracles. In fact miracle will happen in man’s life only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Swami Vivekananda says-"Men are made; not born.” It doesn't mean man has created God, but realised him soulfully. It is also seen man is ready to bestow anyone with the status of God if he can save him from trouble or disastrous. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, one should find Him in oneself; thinking only in positive attitude. While at seeing God in stone image or at no image can we not find him in our subconsciousness at different views at different places?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;It is no where found so many numbers of Gods and so many numbers of people devoted to such numbers of Gods than as herein Indian people find in their self-subconsciousness; and in life that all Gods united in oneness.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;We are not simply worshiping an idol or in its name as God. Worshiping an idol or in its name as God is a means to go on contemplative mind through sub consciousness for self-realisation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;On findings as real facts says- the God’s gracefulness and miracles from where he depicts, but not merely imaginary.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;A Holy and truly universal scripture&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Indian mythologies Ramayana and Mahabharatha and its holy recital Bhagavadgeeta there were many illustrations, emphasizing factors about God exist and self-realisation, along with man’s modes of nature, his death and rebirths. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Bhagavadgeeta sanatana refers to both jeeva and the Lord.  As we have intimate relationship with Lord Sanatana-dharma has the eternal relativity with all human beings and living entity.  Usually people talk ‘Hinduism’ but actually Hindu is not a religion or its name, basically the way of life on which Indic culture oriented towards realising one’s full potential.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, epic of Lord Venkateswara is not a particular religious tome as some people thinks. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Our belief depends on our wisdom or ignorance. We see many examples innocents, ignorant have belief in God on firm faith, rather than too intellectuals.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Innocents may not be knowing meaning of “God-consciousness” but, know what is God and self-realisation. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Even today they find him to converse with His stone image in the temples&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;It is said "intellect is the temple of God" but, unfortunately nowadays intellect is the tempest of frauds.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is Gods mystery to listen to the intrinsic spirit of man to rise above the mundane. From long ago man experienced His divinity within self.  If a man yearns like an innocent child, He will appear in man’s conscientious mind; where self-conscious enshrines on selfless motives, as it is experienced by great transcendentalists. Jesus, Krishna, Mohammed and Buddha went against conventions. They are the ones within their highest divine quality dared to move out of the shadow of a particular religious belief.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Else there will be no agreement in anything believing. It is your choice to believe in the God that already you are within , and with your religion or not but to achieve the quality of being divinity not comes to cherish as sacred unless you regard outside Gods with their intrinsic and religious beliefs.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s up to you to decide whether to follow a farcical religion to appear as dogmatic, or wake up to the expansive religion to preponderate yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each holy pilgrimage may convey divine message, but this holy Tirupati pilgrimage has its exclusive communing form of conceptual ism, stands as A Truly Universal Scripture to ever preserve.&lt;br /&gt;To this pilgrimage center thousands of people visits (on some occasion it exceeds lakhs) daily to take darshanam of Lord Venkateswara without distinction of religion, race-ethnics, because of its’ exclusive Divine message and Sath-shakti the Universal power. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Epic-Story- of Lord Sri VENKATESHWARA (also called as Balaji)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At last, it was the precept of Lord Venkateswara; I have to go through His epic story for finding contemporary values in a different way of new presentation to these advancing days. I have first written this epic-story as“Sapthagiri Sampada” in our regional language Kannada and published in 1997.  I say in my findings this epic-story high lights not only referring to the sacred ordinance of Marriage, but its mystery is on everlasting tripartite principles of this earth.&lt;br /&gt;It's depicting how a man attains the his highest peak of tranquility through his Sathva guna the fortitude power of gentle manliness in human life. It is our world's entity too; on which based the whole Universal Law! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The WORLD of Tripartite Principle&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other than realization of God, there is always big controversy about understanding this wicked world!  It is an astounding mystical mystery and scientific nature’s law also found in this world of three fold times.&lt;br /&gt;The Tripartite principled earth! Which partake thrice is called ‘Tripartite’.&lt;br /&gt;In Vedanta the absolute truth is realized in three phases of understanding…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our body and its functions are found alike on the same principle of tripartite! Which comprises three portions of waters and another portion is based on air which is life force for breathing. In Geethopanishad these three divine aspects explained by the example of Sun also, which has three different aspects-Sun shine, the Sun surface and the Sun planet itself. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One who understands Sun shine- its universal pervasiveness and glaring effulgence compared to those who can realize the Brahman feature of Atman the Absolute Truth.  One who has advanced still further can know the Sun disc, which is compared to knowledge of paramatma the Abosolute Truth.  One who can understand the Sun planet itself is compared to those who realize the personal feature of Supreme Absolute Truth.&lt;br /&gt;These types of study of Absolute Truth cannot be inseparable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;You see, in the global world waters portion is treble around one portion of earth.  Amazingly our country India is having its resemblance as alike as philosophical myth, and geographically a peninsular covered by sea waters at three sides, and again three times of its earth portion filled with full of misery on the cause of criminals and sinners,.  it is  alike as similar example to the whole world also, called as ‘Tripartite principle".&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;In 15th century itself our saints -Hari Daasas’ said-&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;“Idu Parama Papigalige Subhiksha kala…” This is the time of luxuriance of all those sinners and criminals; who are of Rajasa and Tamasa gunas found in three times of Sathvik people.  But remaining  portion of Sathviks of gentleness only ever sprouts to grow up luminous on the earth which is very much power full ruling the whole universe in an indispensable manner at all times.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Although Rajasa is not so harmful, often leads to Tamasa. Indeed, to select the correct group with which to associate and move further is our choice; as Satthva the fortitude and the essence of gentleness is the victorious truth, and highly respectful will bring equilibrium to the whole universe and our life too. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;This Trigunathmaka tathva is found in this epic Sri Venkatesha Puranam.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most creatures and nature of our body and its functions are found alike on the same principle of tripartite! Which comprises three portions of waters and another one portion is based on air which is life force for breathing; takes a major role to survive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These tripartite principles- the Trigunathmaka tatthva pointed out long before by our ancient sages. The same we can find in this epic story Venkatesha Puranam. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would like to mention further, here up to my knowledge and efforts goes in the available epics on Lord Venkateshwara, His Sattvik Message(Divine Message ) limits to trinity only.  Afterwards the high Lights of the story runs about Srinivasa Kalyanam and Lord’s majesty with His pre-eminences only.&lt;br /&gt;In fact this great epic contains Lord’s Divine Message in each and every step of chapters. Accordingly, I studied and took all care on the way of my new presentation not to affect in any way to the traditional story and its resources.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;-Shiva Ram H, 25th August, 2006 up dated: 16th February,2009&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8287591186844968699-317006189064458324?l=balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/feeds/317006189064458324/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8287591186844968699&amp;postID=317006189064458324&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/317006189064458324'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/317006189064458324'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/2006/09/foreword.html' title='Preface'/><author><name>Shivaram H</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15772052157953786444</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_an5kcmnhdGk/TJrHG-IJCiI/AAAAAAAAAMw/cyYuGNHB4TU/S220/shivaram+wbackgrond+Jpg.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_an5kcmnhdGk/SZjkCzA631I/AAAAAAAAAFQ/CcAmJKl-1cU/s72-c/Venkataramana.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8287591186844968699.post-8553144631329969805</id><published>2006-09-28T21:37:00.032+05:30</published><updated>2010-02-27T19:58:52.179+05:30</updated><title type='text'>2. Is Money only speaks in this world?</title><content type='html'>It is believed “A Hill is heavenly abode; gives new life to men”. No exaggeration our Himalayan Mountains are considered as heavenly abode the Lord Shiva and great sages and seers dwelling there. Lord Venkateswara shrine on the Sapthagiri the Seven hills has prodigious fame around the world; giving new life to the people.&amp;nbsp; The quantum of money and consecrations is falling at the lotus feet of Sri Venkateshwara and pilgrims taking the type of returns from Him with solace while going back is incalculable. It cannot be assessed on outward view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man is an opportunist; He finds a way to fulfill some how his desires more than what he needs. In Tirupati temple when man’s selfish motive concentrated on Lord’s huge income, adverse comments started to continue on this shrine. While remembering the ample of endowments from the king Sri Krishnadevaraya and his dynasty to the Lord Venkateswara whose period was full of abundance, and then unfortunately at the time of invasion of Vijayanagara empire lost its charm and the king Venkatapathiraya eyeing on the income of Tirupati Shrine fulfilled his treasury for regimes and palatial maintenance.&amp;nbsp; Later on as time passes away gradually some priests and officers misusing their powers are found involved in money making in the name of Lord.&amp;nbsp; Further, when VIPs and Politicians come to visit this temple the big queue for Lord’s sarva darshanam stands still and commoners therein has to wait hours together impatiently.&amp;nbsp; Apart from fame of this shrine, its earlier day’s natural aesthetic beauty, calmness and charm has been lost. Most of the people coming now a day are not pilgrim devotees, just coming for enjoyment as tourists. Those are all unknowingly or knowingly spoiling this holy place’s sanctity and delightfulness; misusing advanced facilities provided by the TTD authorities. God may be a silent spectator, but impartial and sees peoples good and bad; and it will impact on their own lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Some may think Lord’s compassionate attributes depends upon his receipt of money valued consecrations; as His huge debt is due to Kubera. It is really a false notion. We can see the Lord’s first importance is to keep up His Gentleness; he becomes silent even on those moments of losing his dearest spouse Srilakshmi the wealth goddess, as he had strong fidelity to His fortitude of gentleness! Being Sathvik first on facing much pains and problems, Lord over comes from all those after he had taken hard penance. Latter whole world heads towards Him!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Yes! It is not an exaggeration as we are seeing in this business world, all nice gentlemen and great scholars, who serve for the betterment of man kind attain highest status in the life, one day on their such time of great achievements get all honours, and wealth freely comes and falls at their feet!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;As some people think money only speaks in this world. However, still hopes are there to find those who speak internally with the God.&amp;nbsp; People who disguise are always there to cheating innocents, making money in the name of God. If there is a yards stick for measuring precisely the humanity that is Divinity only; nothing else. The essence of it stands forever for the world peace called as “Sathva _the power of fortitude the "Sathvik Shakthi.”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Our country’s population is increasing. Most of our people are suffering&amp;nbsp; from poverty, diseases and fed up in difficulties without life security.&amp;nbsp; Moreover surprisingly they are still finding God in their own way sustaining everything and outside living in happiness! We cannot imagine our India or our business world where no people live without belief in the God!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our indology will not be complete on just passive statement of Hinduism, its wide-spread is indifferent and depth infinite. It is said we are just proud of our tradition and cultural heritage; does not appear to be strictly followers! But, its creativity and abstruse mythical ontology never before completely destroyed, by any other religion or race or outward forces. Some times it appears to be destroyed though ever before it springs up again from some where in this land with new embodiment of values. Thus shows new phase to everything as new style of supremacy in life!&lt;br /&gt;In our epics we can see Bhakthi rasa the essence of devotion is the main aspect. Whereas the other faces of Bhakthi is jnana&amp;nbsp; the knowledge and self-realisation. The relevance of previous births and rebirths are found as common factor in all our epics. In Sri Venkatesha puranam such relevance of previous births and rebirths are coming.&amp;nbsp; We do not ignore them. Islam, Christianity and Sickhs not believes rebirths.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is said although Buddhist not believes soul-atman; but believes rebirths with continuum of some samskaras (says skhandas). Gautam Budda had remembarence of 500 previous births. We have to think it over... However birth cycles sensible to believe, if rarely rebirth as a Man; as Sankara says Jantunaam Narajanma durlabhamidam. In these advanced days also we heard and found true incidents of rebirths.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In our epic Bhagavata i.e. in Dwapara Yuga-&amp;nbsp; Yashoda the mother of Sri Krishna asks-“Hey, Krishna! I have not seen your marriage in this birth?” Krishna says- “Oh, my mother, in the next birth again I descend myself to earth as Srinivasa, then you can see happily my glorious marriage “Srinivasa kalyanam." Yashode had to wait for one more Yuga i.e. an era to see the glorious marriage of Srinivasa taking her rebirth as Bakuladevi. &lt;br /&gt;In Treta Yuga Vedavathi daughter of a great sage Kushadhwaja, she aspired to get the divinity- Sri MahaVishnu himself as her husband.&amp;nbsp; So she had under gone severe&amp;nbsp; penance. Onwards also the same Vedavathi had to wait, till her taking rebirth as Padmavathi in Kaliyuga; i.e after lapse of two Yugas!&amp;nbsp; She gets the Lord MahaVishnu the Srinivasa himself as her husband; who descended to the earth. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On my pilgrimage to Tirumalai after darshanam of Lord Venkateshwara, got inspired to write a devotional song- first in Kannada language on His epic-story and pre-eminence,&amp;nbsp; its version as follows-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Mahavishnu dharege banda&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;

Brahman and Brahma-gyan</title><content type='html'>Before starting this epic story of Lord Venkateshwara let us know Brahman and Brahma-gyan. In the Upanishads, Brahman is the ground of all being; that in virtue of which everything exists. It is the ultimate reality, the holy resourceful power sathva_sathvik shakthi and sustainer of the universe. It is also the single absolute being pervading the universe found within the individual soul; atman. In Vedanta its seminal figure was Ramanjuja, for him soul and matter depend on God for their existence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brahma the creator God, possessing sathva who had earlier five heads, one burned off by the fire of Shiva’s third eye, because of he spoken disrespectfully. It shows there is no excuse whoever so great disrespects to sathva guna. The creation legend concerns Brahma in different forms. Brahma is the creator of the nature_prakriti, responsible for materialism that physical well-being and worldly possessions constitute the greatest good and highest value in life. He is four headed, creator of four Vedic rituals.&amp;nbsp; In the beginning Vedas were just in vocals. Vyasa who was the grandson of great sage Vasishta formed Vedas into scriptures. He divided Vedas into four parts-Rigveda, Yajur Veda, Sama Veda, Athrva Veda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While detailed description he also composed the abstruse mystics of Brahma sutras. Along with the exegesis of 18 epics, the mythologies like Mahabharata, Bhagavata and other many stories of sages are his unique contributions. Of which &lt;i&gt;Bhagavad geeta of Mahabharata&lt;/i&gt; highlights on spiritual concerted action from the complete essence of Vedas. Vedas comprises devotional rhymes and rites for ceremonial sacrifices. In spiritual realm such divine concerts termed as Vedanta, its Upanishads are revealing meditation and Yoga. These are all exegesis irradiating our minds with sparks of divine grace light that exceptionally detailed in &lt;i&gt;Bhagavad geeta_Geethopanishad&lt;/i&gt;* driving each individual beyond materialism to the eternal quest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;If man does&amp;nbsp; eative works relating to infinite nature and for the betterment of all human beings and creatures on this finite world, such useful contribution is considered as &lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt; knowledge &lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;oriented from“Brahma-gyan"&amp;nbsp; Swamy vikekananda says-All knowledge is of no use; without Brahma-gyan.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On that day, Brahma appeared in deep thinking about continuance of evils, criminality and calamities on the earth. The musical tunings of Sarswathi’s veena was moving in buoyant waves all-around in that deep silence.&amp;nbsp; Its melodious appealing rhythm waves were refining the sublunary as if urging men to praying all the divinities... By the time Narada entered, he was called as Devarishi because he is a seer at his divine grace able to travel all Trilokas i.e. abode of Trinities at any time at his will. He can rise to the occasion to go ahead as a part taker of forth coming social and spiritual reformations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Four headed Brahma at those moments was thinking in his first worried face, and in second one with closed eyes chanting the Vedic recitals spontaneously. Ahead in the third one uttering the name of Naryana… Narayana…, in another last one had beloved look towards his spouse Saraswathi Devi.&amp;nbsp; So this seemed to be confusion, Narada without expecting any welcome honour from Brahma as he was his respectful father-Pitamaha only, he went straight away and took his own seat-asana.&amp;nbsp; Brahma looked at Narada in his first face, then Narada asked_&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oh Pitamaha, you are appearing worried much about some thing. What is the matter?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Narada, you are knower of earth’s often evil some situations on the cause of people’s ignorance, greediness and their passionate actions. The dharma is diminishing frequently.&amp;nbsp; If dharma is completely destroyedthere will be no sun set on the earth.&amp;nbsp; Ablaze sun itself kindled to fire.&amp;nbsp; Then how about survival of earth lives? These are all the events of ruthless inhuman activities the Tamasa pravrutti going on by soulless sinners. If this is continued the earth goes to dive in darkness. What is next Narada?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Oh, you are the creator, and you know your truth only will prevail forever and get victoriously reverence at the end.&amp;nbsp; However, from time to time to eliminate the hidden darkness in human beings, and to edifying them intellectually to enrich their knowledge a great sacrifice_ Jnana yajna will be performed by mahrishis on the earth.&amp;nbsp; I am having a doubt Pitamaha..?”&lt;br /&gt;“What is your doubt Narada?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;“Oh father, all mahrishis gathered therein are performing a big sacrifice_yajna.&amp;nbsp; Whether the fruitfulness of that sacrifice is dedicated to all the divinities or to the chief divinity only, who is Sathvik Swarupi the pervador all over reasoning for cosmic energy to the existence of universe; which is still under confusion” Narada said.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;“Narada, some people on the earth are doing their sacrifice like Nishkama karma i.e. without any expectations, that brings auspiciousness individually, and as well as for the society.&amp;nbsp; People of self-centered are there, performing Kamyya-karma that too doing intentionally to fulfill their selfish motives and get profits only, which may be harmful to humans and other creatures on the earth; but they don’t care.&amp;nbsp; Latter on those impulses they should also suffer."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: #351c75;"&gt;“Narada, if this Universe is still in entity that is because of the essence of Sathva the fortitude power of gentility; by immensely on divine grace light. To the gratification of that divinity we will have to perform all sacrifices; along with our Sath-Karmas and its genteel activities. Therefore, to confirm that Chief Divinity who is great in self-possession of Sathva, and ever substantiating the universal entity is to be examined. Narada, better you go to earth and visit that Sacrifice spot, meet great sages and seers to clarify this at once.” Brahma said softly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;i&gt;&amp;nbsp;Actually, behind it a providential act of almighty was there.&amp;nbsp; Even it was not known to Brahma who being the creator God,&amp;nbsp; that first examination would take place to him only!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- &lt;br /&gt;* Upanishad says you are always united with God; what it comes from God is the divine grace light for the Mankind i.e. found in Bhagavad geeta called as Geethopanishad.&amp;nbsp; Vedic knowledge and Goothopanishad says four types of human race, but explicit the aim of human life and welfare of the worldly people.&amp;nbsp; Some fanatics hallucinates that Vedic culture emphasizes caste hierarchy.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8287591186844968699-8303394088872660318?l=balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/feeds/8303394088872660318/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8287591186844968699&amp;postID=8303394088872660318&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/8303394088872660318'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/8303394088872660318'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/2006/09/2-sri-venkateshwara-darshanam.html' title='3.

Lord of Seven hills&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Thou art pervades worldly welfare wondrous&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; On thou art bestowal us our willful desires;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; O Srinivasa! We duly offer our salutations. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Generally it is opined that the big epics Ramayana and Mahabharata are the mythologies representing the human values for our life times. And most of our authors after attaining some years of experience would like to take one of the above two myths and rewrite to characterize its roles, in search of human values. My long desire was to seek out some other epic story, apart from the above said epics, and make research of such an epic story to the depth for finding out everlasting life vision, and&amp;nbsp; evaluation for all times for the younger generations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;The Inspiration&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You might have visited to Tirupati. When I visited first time (1993) along with my family, I had been immersed myself in deep thinking. Why thousands of people are coming daily here to take darshanam of Sri Venkateshwara?&amp;nbsp; What precious things they carry back physically and mentally while returning, by offering Him vows and performing rituals? What is that power here which attracts thousands of people from all around the world daily? That was my first darshanam of Lord Venkateshwara with my wife and children. When I came out of the temple and sat in front of the temple premises, while eating the laddu prasadam all of a sudden had a flash genuine view about this legendary place, and learnt there is a Divine Message of Lord&amp;nbsp; from here to the Universe:That was my first darshanam of Lord Sri Venkateshwara with my wife and children. When I came out of the temple, and sat in front of the temple premises and while eating the laddu prasadam, all of a sudden I got a flash genuine point of view about this legendary holy place and learnt there is a Divine Message of Lord from here to the Universe_&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lord Venkateshwara is standing on this serpent hills as universal exponent, to explicit His Divine Message which derives from the origin of&amp;nbsp; Sathva the fortitude poower _ Sathvik Shakthi. It is marvelous and transcendental ever attracting the people from all around the world.&amp;nbsp; It is devotee’s strong belief on His grace, their problems will be solved miraculously and sincere desires fulfilled. On the Lord’s revelation_ Divya darshanam their minds become peaceful or peaceful three fold times than earlier before.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our ancient sages were ascetics culminated on open knowledge seers and great orators. What they have contributed and delivered for Mankind are not superstitions; but superfine to overcome from sensual and materialistic passions. Masterly sages are creators of new era; with foresight for evoking the Sathva hidden in human beings. Thus our incited souls enlightened to self realization and God consciousness. Our legendary epics depict God’s inconceivable but solely cognizable discourses, useful for our future life.&amp;nbsp; Especially this epic called as “Bhavishyottara Purana” the epic replying to the future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;On looking nowadays' worst situations some may says desperately-“God is useless!”&amp;nbsp; No, He helps who help themselves. He is great; despite of man made calamities like water and air pollution, still giving us somehow plentiful resources, time to time rains and cosmic energy from Sun.&amp;nbsp; Some scholars say universe run on its own accord, there is no one to its entity.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: #351c75;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;How man knew, whence this creation was? God only imparts wisdom to man who made money and many scientific inventions to live better. On the contrariwise he becomes too selfish to make this world as wicked! If still we are surviving, it’s because of the power of gentility that springs up from the divinity within humanity in the world! &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can find in our country “the best” and “the worst” examples. The fastest population growth is also a critical problem. It creates rate of ratios to vary on worst or best with the Tripartite Principle!&amp;nbsp; We can see in our temples in the name of Lord or in the name of Sevas rituals the exploitation of money is going on.&amp;nbsp; Devotees are silently accepting!&amp;nbsp; It is stated Tirupati temple stands first in this way of which made to follow other pilgrimages. God is not greedy!&amp;nbsp; Man&amp;nbsp; is greedy. He put a nick name to Him as "Baddi Kasinava" (Banker).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;In my earlier days unknowingly I used to hate Lord Venkateswara is greedy for the money. I was reluctant to perform rituals and pujas. In fact He is the deity of our clan! Now He is my chosen deity! I never imagined that I write His epic finding everlasting life vision and evaluation for our all life times. On His inspiration only I had written it in our regional language Kannada as "Sapthagiri Sampada” published-1997. Based on the same, if this English version is up to the mark, it is also at His divine grace showered upon me as I am not a scholar, but to my sincere efforts His special force and order put me to work in this way of presentation. If I committed any mistakes that are mine, pour all those on Lord’s lotus feet. If anything is good and found wondrous by His grace only.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the people of this Kaliyuga, Srinivasa, Sri Venkateswara is an Avatar as incarnation of MahaVishnu.&amp;nbsp; Devoted people believe He particularly descended on seven hills to hear us graciously and bestow eternally. Though this epic has no big canvas like Ramayana or Mahabharata, but in its way has some similarities. In Ramayana we find Sathvik prabhu Sri Ramachandra, in Mahabharatha characters of Dharmaraja, Vidhura, Vibheeshana are examples for same characters. Likewise, in this epic story Vishnu as Srinivasa the Sathvik exponent descended to earth for communicating His same Divine Message. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;*** *** ***&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dharma is Universal. There is not one dharma for Indians and another for westerners. It is the genteel manners to put into effectiveness, but our politicians made it as communal. Present age of Kaliyuga was predicted to witness the down fall of Dharma.&amp;nbsp; However, various aspects are being picked up in isolation by spiritualists to achieve divineness, and the people finding its perpetuation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25th Sept,2006-12 August,2008,  updated 17th Feb,2009&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8287591186844968699-2426855324618511941?l=balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/feeds/2426855324618511941/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8287591186844968699&amp;postID=2426855324618511941&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/2426855324618511941'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8287591186844968699/posts/default/2426855324618511941'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://balajifromsevenhills.blogspot.com/2006/09/serial-1sapthagiri-sandesha.html' title='1.The Message from seven hills&lt;br&gt;(Sapthagiri Sandesha)'/><author><name>Shivaram H</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15772052157953786444</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_an5kcmnhdGk/TJrHG-IJCiI/AAAAAAAAAMw/cyYuGNHB4TU/S220/shivaram+wbackgrond+Jpg.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_an5kcmnhdGk/SZq6ZnYYJyI/AAAAAAAAAFw/U6Oh2bnaNQk/s72-c/TirupatiMainTempleRdy+copy.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
