Dear allI am really dismayed at the growing dependence of the corporate and political world resorting to tantric powers for succes and mental peace . There has been a mention about this obsession in india today a few years back .hinduism is not at all understood by us .it is a wonderful balance of duties rights and way of living .why r we getting stuck at the ritualistic level. Why don't we realise we have no power to change our destiny.of course we have the power of prayer ,positive vibrations which do help and modify. Let us read out vedas and upanishads and realise there is a time when we need to know when tobe detached .it is comical when peopl get terrified of evil forces.please realise we r all mortal and distri buting and sharing are the real forces which help. No one is responsible for our life's activities ups and down .we all know it is a kaala chakram. There r 4 stages for all .when we reach vaanprastham we should have the brains to realise and move away .fear is the biggest disease.pls don't blame any one accept everyone's behaviour.u might like the excerpts from the upanishad.all of us must during our early seventies must follow vedanta way only to prevent from cribbing and the emotion of fear rage and jealousy . We r so petrified why. life is very painful I know but no point in finding loopholes .accept and move on believe me it helps pls don't encourage half baked ritualistic methods and demean our divine religion. Naam sankeertanam and discipline is the best solution to alleviate mental and physical pain .Regards jayshree venkatraman

This Self comes out as a separate entity ... | Vedic Verses A daily collection of verses from the Vedas, Hinduism's revealed scripture | | Vedic Verses for 8/6/17 As a lump of salt has neither inside nor outside and is altogether a homogeneous mass of taste, even so this Self, my dear, has neither inside nor outside and is altogether a homogeneous mass of Intelligence. This Self comes out as a separate entity from the elements and with their destruction this separate existence is also destroyed. After attaining this oneness it has no more consciousness. This is what I say, my dear. So said Yajnavalkya. Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad IV, V-Yajnavalkya and Maitreyi (II), 13 Approving, may he accord us wealth inexhaustible together with offspring! Void of anger, may he keep us in his mercy and favor! Atharva Veda VII, 20, 3 Approachable, O Grace, best of guides, is your name, pleasant and bountiful! For your own name's sake fulfill our sacrifice, O source of all riches, and grant us, O Blessed One, treasures and heroes. Atharva Veda VII, 20, 4 Grace, in response to our well-performed oblation, draws night to impart fair lands and brave heroes. Her providence is kindly. Guided by the Gods, may she enhance still further the sacrifice we offer! Atharva Veda VII, 20, 5 Grace has become this All--whatever stands, whatever walks and moves. Accept us, O Goddess! Grant us your favor! Atharva Veda VII, 20, 6 • Email to a friend • | | Click for details on Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami's next mission.
