EPIC AND PURANA - DIFFERENCE

Epics and Puranas are not just a Story.It was the History.which was really happened in the past.

The Life History of Characters that was found in the Epic were true and the Epic was written when the Characters of that Epic were alive.

Ramayana and Mahabharatha were two great epics which was written by Sage Valmiki and Sage Vyasa when the characters of these Epics were alive.

And regarding Puranas,the life history of characters found in Puranas were true and it was written after the history happened.Eighteen Puranas were written by Sage Vyasa right after all the incident took place at various periods and place.

LUST

Lust - is the First & Biggest Enemy for every individual in the World.

Lust on any thing will result in Misery. Lust first gives Sweet then Poison.

How Lust Originated in us ?.

I heard the answer for this in one of the Spiritual Discourse.

" It starts from Thinking an Object, Meditating [Constant and Continous thinking] that object,which make us to feel an attachment on that object,Soon it will turn into Desire and the Strong Desire in to Lust "

Lust starts its Journey as a child from thinking.as a result of continous thinking it attain it's adultary stage.

In this post I doesn't mean Sexual Lust alone,but also, lust on any thing like place,person,thing.

Thinking unnecassarily about a particular thing/person/place will make a change inside us and will make an attachment on that particular thing/person/place with out knowing to ourself.Thinking lead to continous thinking [Meditation],that creates an attachment,that attachment evolve to become a desire and that desire will took the rigid form of Lust.We can avoid lust in it's initial stage.What to do ? Stop thinking unnecassarily about any particular thing/person/place.Only it is possible to avoid or delete Lust in it's initial stage.And it is certainly not possible to cut,delete or avoid lust in it's final / adultary stage.

Effect Of Lust : Lust has strong power to block our reasoning ability,mental awareness and even may make us to forget even the known knowledge of us.
When there is an obstacle occurs in the path of Lust it turns in to Anger.Lust is the root of anger.When anger increases it may cause any dangerous effect on others as well on ourself too.

Thinking ---> Continous Thinking ------> Attachment / Affection -----> Desire ------> LUST,
Lust with Obstacle ------> Anger --------> Produces Dangerous and Harmful Effect.

So Avoid Danger at the Initial Stage itself.Stop Thinking Unneccessarily.

Even Entertainment starts from Thinking.First we start thinking/doing an action as an entertainment.When days passes it will be our continous thought.Then above said further process will happen with out our knowledge similar like our physical growth.our body grow from infant to adultary but could we watch it ? we can't see it's growth frame by frame.Lust is similar to this growth.

High awareness is essential in the stream of thoughts.

Food habits also plays a vital role in this. Non-Veg Food items including Garlic and Onion stimulates thoughts and channelize the stream of thoughts towards Lust.So Avoid Non-Veg.

Lust & Anger are Twins.If One occurs other will come along with the previous one.Thinking /good thoughts,Divine and performing Good action ,Divine actions with Divine thoughts will help very much in eradicating Lust from the root.That is why Noble souls will do the action of Reading Spiritual Books,Thinking about Good concepts,following good principles,Performing Pooja,Going Yatra to pilgrimage,Listening to the discourses of Sadhus,Mahaan and Sages.These will develop Good qualities in us and will help us in avoiding Lust and will make us to live in a Peaceful and in Blissful state.

I hope this post may be helpful.because,when the process of a mechanism is known it will be very useful to manipulate.

Please don't miss to hear this video.

INTEREST IN VEENA

Once I went to Thiruvarur at the age of 15,along with the devotees of Shiva.I had darshan of Swami & went to Kamalambigai Temple.Near to Sri Kamalambigai Temple,I get stucked and was attracted by a wall Painting.It was the Picture of a Holy Man who is in the Position of Playing Veena.The Face of him and his Posture,appearence and Veena attracted me so much.I stood there and Watch that Painting for a long time.I was unable to move away from that place.That image attracted me so much and gave me such a peace.At that time I don't know what is the name of him ?. But I searched his name.Later after some years I came to know that is the image of Sri Muthu Swamy Deekshitar,One of Sangeetha Mumoorthigal.

From the Moment I watched his Image,I was attracted by Veena So Much.My thurst on Veena is still alive.To learn Veena became my desire.I don't know even ABCD of Music.But I was so attracted toward veena.Through Divine Music One can Attain Divinity.Music is magic.It will easily tie our Mind.Veenadhara Dakshinamoorthy is one of the Form of Lord Shiva.In this Form he used to play Veena.I read some where that Lord Shiva is the First to introduce Veena and Play Veena.I don't know why I get attracted towards Veena.But I can Feel there is Divinity in Veena.Above is the picture (Professionals,Pardon Me) of Veena dhara Dakshina Moorthy drawn by me during my college days because of the attraction on Veena & Devotion on Lord Shiva.Till now I never took Single step to learn Veena,even though it is a 12 year desire which settled inside me.But I enquired some where near by my Home town,but not able to find any veena Teachers.May be, there may be some body even near by.but to my luck i did not found any one.Let me Wait & See,What about in Future.Every thing is in God's Hand.I accept, My effort is not enough in enquiring about veena class and also in learning Veena.But the desire is still in my heart among so many obstacles like Money,Job hunting,place,situations,lack of my self-effort,laziness..etc.I would like to learn Veena from a Spiritual Cum Veena skilled Guru.Dear Lord Shiva please decide and judge whether I should learn Veena or not ? and will it be suitable for me,does I am eligible for that ?.If You think I can learn Veena & can go in the spiritual path through music,then show me a Path & guide Me.

COMMITMENT IS BURDEN

One day I went to Arsha Vidhya Peetam,at that time My Guru took a Class on 'Athma Bodham' ,after finishing the class I asked some doubts,He cleared it.Then, I asked him to take class for me on a particular topic, I forgot now about on which topic ? because it happened 4 years back.He briefly explained about it and I said "swamiji, tomorrow onwards I will come for Evening class,You Please took a class on the topic what you explained me now,If I was not able to come I will inform you through telephone !".He replied "COMMITMENT IS BURDEN".

This is a short reply but with deep and huge meaning.If we understand this and began to apply this thought we could avoid most of the problems.Because of Desire on something or anything we get in to a commitment,and we tie ourself by our own rope.If we have the ability to act easily according to the commitment under any circumstances,then no problem,it won't be a burden.But if we found any difficulty,it will be burden.In Most cases,It become very difficult to do.We have to come across so many obstacles.Of them, most are self created.So a long analysis must be done before undergoing any commitment.If it is possible for us to act successfully according to the commitment, then we should get in to it,if not,we should never turn that side.

This Song is From the Film

'Adimai Penn'.I feel this

Song is Absolutely about Our

Divine Mother.

தாய் இல்லாமல் நான் இல்லை  
தானே எவரும் பிறந்ததில்லை 

எனக்கொரு தாய் இருக்கின்றாள்  
என்றும் என்னை காக்கின்றாள் 

  (தாய் இல்லாமல் நான் இல்லை..) 

தாய் இல்லாமல் நான் இல்லை  

ஜீவ நதியாய் வருவாள்  
என் தாகம் தீர்த்து மகிழ்வாள்

   (ஜீவ நதியாய் வருவாள்..)  
 

தவறினை பொறுப்பாள்  
தர்மத்தை வளர்ப்பாள் 
தரணியிலே வளம் சேர்த்திடுவாள்

     (தவறினை பொறுப்பாள்.. ) 

தாய் இல்லாமல் நான் இல்லை  

தூய நிலமாய் கிடப்பாள் 

தன் தோளில் என்னை சுமப்பாள்

               (தூய நிலமாய்..)

தன்மையிலாமல் நான் மிதித்தாலும்..  
தன்மையிலாமல் நான் மிதித்தாலும்  
'தாய்மையிலே மனம் கனிந்திடுவாள்' 
 

தாய் இல்லாமல் நான் இல்லை  

மேக வீதியில் நடப்பாள் 
உயிர் மூச்சினிலே கலந்திருப்பாள் 

               (மேக வீதியில்..) 

மலை முடி தொடுவாள்  
மலர் மனம் தருவாள்  
மங்கல வாழ்வுக்கு துணை இருப்பாள் 

                      (மலை முடி..)

  
 

தாய் இல்லாமல் நான் இல்லை  

ஆதி அந்தமும் அவள் தான்  
நம்மை ஆளும் நீதியும் அவள் தான் 

                  (ஆதி அந்தமும்..) 

அகந்தையை அழிப்பாள் 
ஆற்றலை கொடுப்பாள்  
அவள் தான் அன்னை மகாசக்தி 

            (அகந்தையை அழிப்பாள்..)  

அந்த தாய் இல்லாமல் நான் இல்லை 

தானே எவரும் பிறந்ததில்லை  
எனக்கொரு தாய் இருக்கின்றாள்  
என்றும் என்னை காக்கின்றாள்  

தாய் இல்லாமல் நான் இல்லை

GIRLS - DEVIL OR DIVINE ?!

Girls - Devil or Divine ?.This is the Question aroused in me, when I saw the Verses 'Girls are Devils' on the back of a Motor Cycle.I made an Analyse on it.

This is based upon our thought,Experience & View on Girls.If One has Good Experience,Good thought & Good view, the thoughts of them won't Frighten Our Mind.

If we Keep Attachment,Affection,Love or Lust on Girls,the thoughts of them will definitely kill us.At that time they are Devils.Actually,they are not devils,the thoughts of them will act as devil & kill us more than a HIV virus.

But When You have Pure Love, in the same sense, what we have on God,which is the reflection of Love on God with out having any affection,attachment, love or lust,then they are Angels.The Thought of them won't kill or hurt us.

After Surrendering our Full Mind on the Holy Feet of Divinity or Almighty,the View of us Will Change.This World looks very beautiful & the thought of those who lives here won't hurt us.If we don't Surrender ,this world looks like Hell & the thoughts of any beauty will Kill us , at that time, they will look like devils.

According to Swami Sivananda,he said in one of his article named as 'Celibacy', Both Men & Women should consider their Opposite Sex as 'Cobra'.Yes,this is 100 % right.Because the poison of Lust may go inside us at any time.If you show a beautiful flower in front of a person who was poisoned by a snake bite,he won't enjoy the beauty of Rose,at that time,this world is a hell for him.Same way,if our Mind is Poisoned by Love,Affection,Lust on any object or any body,this world will seem to be hell & the Person whom we have affection,Love or lust will be viewed as Devil,because the thought of them will definitely kill us.

At the Same time If We keep Our Mind at the Holy Feet of Lord,nothing will have dare to Poison Our Mind.And this World will be Heaven not the Hell & Opposite Sex will be Angels not Devils.

Keep your Mind at the Holy Feet Of Lord, You will be Safe.

IMPORTANCE OF SATH GURU

IMPORTANCE OF GURU

Please Click the Above Link ; In which,I said Importance of Guru in Tamil Language which is a Drop of Ocean like Greatness of Guru.


A Gnana Guru is Very Important for a person to attain liberation.Without Guru's Grace Divine knowledge and liberation is not possible.Even Lord himself in his avatar joined as a student to a Guru.In Krishna avatar he joined as a student to 'Sandheepani' Rishi & In Rama avatar his Guru is Sri Vashistar.Through this, Lord reveals the Importance of Guru.To know the Swarupam of God & to get Divine Knowledge Guru is needed.It is a duty of a person to attain a Good guru.If we don't know a Good Guru,we should pray to god to show a Sath Guru.God will surely help to the Sincere Prayer.In the above Video Link,I said Importance of Guru in Tamil Language which is a Drop of Ocean like Greatness of Guru.

KUMARA KOTTAM - KANCHIPURAM

I went to Kanchipuram,and, had Darshan of Divine Mother Kamakshi,
Lord Ekambareswarar & Lord Murugan [Kumara kottam] on Thursday - July 30,2009.


Kanchipuram is one of 'Moksha Puri' kshethram.


Lord Murugan Temple - Kumarakottam is situated in between Divine

Mother Kamakshi Temple & Lord Ekambareswarar Temple which reminds the 'Somaskandha' Form.

The Form of Lord Shiva,with his Consort Uma Devi seated on his Left and Lord Muruga [Kumaran] in between them is known as Somaskandhar.

Lord Murugan is in the BrahmaSasta Form.[i.e] in the 'Creator' Form .


Once When Lord Muruga Asked the Meaning of Pranavam ,Lord Brahma
[Creator] was unable to answer.So Lord Muruga Imprisoned Brahmaji and does the Work of Brahma.Lord Muruga did the Job of Creation by having 'Kamandalu' on his left hand and 'Japa Maalai' at his right hand.

That form is in the Garpa graham of Kumarakottam.

It was said that when Lord Muruga did the job of creation.Every one in his creation were born as 'Gnani','Rishis',no one was illiterate or Ignorant.Every one attained Mukthi in his creation.

• Kachiappa Shivachariar,who is the Author of Skandha Puranam used to submit his work everyday night in the Moolasthanam of Lord Muruga.
• Every night, miraculously, the Lord Himself would modify Kachiappa's
  manuscript with His own corrections.Kachiappa Shivachariar Found the Corrections every next Morning.Hence, the SKanda Puranam is considered to be the absolutely authoritative account of Lord Murugan's career bearing the seal of approval of none other than the Lord Himself.

• Kachiappa Shivachariar was one of the Disciple of Mahavidhwan Shree Meenakshi Sundaram Pillai who was the Guru of Tamil 'Thatha' u.v.Swaminatha Iyer.

• This is the Place where Bamban Swamigal got darshan of Lord Murugan in a boy form.

• Arunagiri nathar,during his days, came to this Temple and Sung a Song on Lord Muruga.
