Kumbha Mela

Image
  According to the Bhagawat Puran gods and demons churned the milky ocean, which produced the elixir of immortality. A fight erupted between the two groups over who should take the kumbh (pitcher) filled with amrit (elixir). It is believed that during the struggle, drops of the elixir fell on Prayag, Haridwar, Nasik and Ujjain and the waters of the rivers flowing through these places became pure, auspicious and life-giving. A congregation of Shaivite order of sannysis, Vaishnav order of vairagis (ascetic sadhus, Nagas, saints from all 13 Akhadas), abstemious Kalpavasis and pilgrims is held at each of the four holy places once every twelve years and the period of the festivities is determined by the positions of Jupiter, the Sun and the Moon in the Zodoac. Millions of people take a dip in those rivers during the festival of the sacred Pitcher called ‘Kumbh Mela’. The largest Kumbh Mela is held at the confluence of the rivers Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati in Prayag when Jupiter transit...

My condolence to the family of former PM Manmohan Singh

Image
  I pay homage to the departed soul of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who had devoted his life to the betterment of the countrymen. He was a man of uprightness and wisdom. His modesty and gentleness did him credit and therefore considered as an exceptional parliamentarian. His personal integrity was never questioned. He said, "I honestly believe that history will be kinder to me than the contemporary media, or for that matter, the opposition parties in parliament." As the Finance Minister, he introduced liberalisation and privatisation, opening Indian economy to the world and became the chief architect of economic reform, which saved the country from recession. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and relatives at this time of terrible loss.

ऐ भारत की प्यारी नारी ! तुम स्वरूप श्रद्धा की हो, तुम तो फूलों सी कोमल या छुई-मुई से नाज़ुक हो । नहीं, नहीं झाँसी की रानी, दुर्गावती आदि भी हो तुम तो प्रबल दामिनी हो, काली चण्डी दुर्गा तुम हो ! धरती जैसी धैर्य धारिणी मुख पर अम्बर की गरिमा, लज्जा ममता करुणा की बहती उर में तेरे सरिता । किंतु किसी ने तेरे बच्चों को छूने की कोशिश की, ख़तरा बनकर झपटी होगी उस पर क्रुद्ध शेरन सी    सारे अब संसार में, गुंजित जय श्रीराम । अवधपुरी है सज गयी, जन्मभूमि अभिराम।। जन्मभूमि अभिराम, बज रहे ढोल नगाड़े । पशु, पक्षी, हर जीव, कर रहे हैं जयकारे ।। नये वर्ष के साथ, उछलते उत्सव प्यारे । राम कृपा के मेघ, घिरे हैं नभ में सारे ।। वीर चाहिए भक्त चाहिए शेरों का परिवार चाहिए । भारी भीड़ हमें भेड़ों की नहीं चाहिए, नहीं चाहिए ! जीना है मस्ती भरी जिंदगी हारना है नहीं, हाफना है नहीं, जीना हमें है जिलाना उन्हें, हमें इसलिए कोई चिंता नहीं। जिन्हें घृणा है देश-प्रेम से उनका हिन्दुस्तान नहीं, गद्दारों के लिए समझ लो यहाँ कोई स्थान नहीं । फिर से देश नहीं सौपेगा सत्ता नकली लोगों को, ठीक यही होगा वे जाएँ अपने असली वतनो...

The people of India should also be thankful to PM Modi for the festive atmosphere he has been creating since he came to power.

When he visits some foreign country, people watch the activities participated by him like they were watching an entertaining movie. The day he visits some temple or performs some religious ceremony spends like a day of national rejoicing. His Man-ki-Baat, Clean India Campaign and all he does create delightful events for the countrymen.  Read "The Rise of NaMo and New India" to know more about the wonderful angel of India. 

Brutal Butchering of a Fellow Human Being:

Image
A man cannot butcher a man as brutally as the extremists butchered Ram Gopal Mishra during Durga idol immersion procession in Maharajganj - Bahraich on Sunday, 13 Oct 2024. Chief Medical Officer, Bahraich Sanjay Kumar Sharma reveals that nearly 30 pellets were found on him; both of his thumbs exhibited burn injuries along with nail damage; a burn-like mark on one of his legs was found; victim's left eye was damaged due to injury from a sharp object; and he had been struck on the forehead with a blunt object. Dr Sharma maintains that continuous beating caused the loss of a lot of blood and due to which Ram Gopal died. Most of the people may turn a blind eye to this victim, for he is neither their relation nor friend and acquaintance; but they must remember that tomorrow this sort of bloodbath may reach their doors too. Brothers, don’t delude yourself that you are safe even in your homeland and you need not do anything for your safety.
