Q1         Do we reincarnate intothe same family?

A1          yogesh Swami UpdatedSeptember 7, 2020

By the law of attraction we are, as revealed in Gita (8/6) , born in the place 
and family ofour attachment. 

Father is likely to be born as son of his son of previous birth. Wife atthe 
last time thinking of her husband has chances of becoming the husband ofher 
previous husband or a man and it is also true the other *way round for aman who 
becomes a woman because of dwelling his mind on his wife (BhagwaanKapil in 
bhagvat and Puranjan akhyan)

The other day a startling truth dawned on me. An animal -talker visitinga 
Rajput family said, “Thehorse says he was his master's grandfather. He has a 
grevence   thathis grandson of last birth rides him without seeking permission. 
“ The familybelieved for he said many truthful things about other pets like 
dogs not likinga particular green ball, or being hurt in a particular leg, or 
playing with ablue disk that had been forgotten by master of dogs or the place 
from wherethey bought or brought the dogs.

Too early to admit this seemingrule but it appears that animals remember their 
human births ; however, humans have no memory of their previousbirths as a 
general rule..

Q9         Can you tell about 'JaleshwarShiv Temple' of West Bengal

A9          Posted by SaurabhTilakraj Jain Thu The legendary 'Jaleshwar Shiv 
Temple' of West Bengal, a Hindutemple dedicated to Lord Shiv situated in 
Santipur, Nadia district. It is one of the oldesttemples of rural Bengal.Inthis 
unique temple, the Shiv Linga is placed on an elevated pedestal.

It is believed that devotees who offer water to the Lord on the lastMonday of 
the month of Shravana all their wishes are fulfilled.

The 'Jaleswar Temple' is a south-facing temple with the slanting roof offour 
edges having two doors to the east and south.

It is believed from the ancient times that the Jaleswar Temple, whichrepresents 
Lord Shiv as the 'God of Water' is to protect the purity and serenity of 
thesoil.

The height of the visible Shiv linga, made of black basalt, is 0.92 metrebut 
considering the underneath structure of the Linga, it is saidthat Jaleswar Shiv 
Linga is the tallest one on earth.

On the upper part of the entrance door, different forms of Lord Shiva 
areengraved. An epitome of peace in the delta of the Ganges has been 'home' 
topersons like Ancient poet Krittibas (who translated Ramayana in Bengali) 
andAdwaitacharya (the spiritual mentor of Shri Chaitanya Mohaprabhu) for 
manyyears.

Not only a holy place ofpilgrimage for Vaishnavs, the two cults of Shakti and 
Shiv also thrived fromthis holy soil.

According to legends, the temple derives its name from an anecdote whichsays 
that during heavydrought the villagers poured pails of water on the Lingam 
resulting in a heavydownpour. Since then the name 'Jaleswar'- the god of water 
is prevailing.




Q10       Why is it always a duty ofa housewife to clean the home and look 
after everything?

A10        Ramadevi Gidugu Sat FormerSelf Employed, Full Time Mother.

No. It's not her duty by birth. Since you mentioned the word '’house 
wife'automatically it becomes her responsibility to maintain and manage the 
housewith whatever her husband earns. He is doing the provider job. She is a 
homerunner.

Having said that, if she feels it's hectic and she is feeling exhausted,she can 
save money in some other things, start something from home to earn, canhire a 
helper. If physically not capable to manage alone, have all the rightsto ask 
her husband to hire a helper.

If husband has fixed hours timeand not exhausted, she can ask him to share a 
little work also.

It again depends on his nature of work. Some work for differenttimezones, some 
do most strenuous and mentally exhausting work, some worksdrain out their 
energy levels.

It's better ask him to help. If he does well and good. If he doesn't orthink 
it's your job or really he can't, better you concentrate on yourresponsibility 
than how to bend him. Think about how to rationalise your work.No use in 
fighting.

Like making powders, spices, pastes like tamarind, garlic, ginger once ina Week 
and storing them. Investing in good gadgets which would reduce your workload 
like food processor, rotimakers, fully automatic washing machines, evenmachines 
came to clean and mop the floor.

If house wife chose to not go for a salaried job outside, then obviouslyshe has 
to contribute to house by taking care only. It's her responsibility.

I can't say it as a duty. Because sometimes she may want to go to herparents 
place, may fall sick, may go out of station to attend functions ,marriages etc. 
Then life won't stop for husband or wife.

If you feel you can better utilise the time to persue some hobby or somemoney 
generating activity, you have to rationalise your work. Smart work helpsmore 
than hard work.

If you see a considerable money generating possibility, you can explainto your 
husband and ask him could he contribute in any manner. If he could, youcan 
further plan accordingly. Otherwise self reliance is always best.

Personally I don't feel anywork is degrading or a burden. Each has somevalue 
and respect. To run life we need every thing in life in suitableproportions.

Finally why is it always a dutyof a housewife to clean the home and look after 
everything? My answer is ,Since she chose that role.

Why is it always a duty of her husband to earn and provide for the home?It's 
the only option he has and rarely he gets a choice to choose house husbandrole.

Finally why both of you should continue your roles?

It's your choice. You want to make your house in to home in that way. Youcan 
anytime discuss and alter, shift, exchange your roles.




Q11       What are some of the mostmind-blowing facts?

A11        Shiva Shukla Sat ProcessEngineer at Indian Oil Corporation Ltd.

Returning from office, soothing music, long silent road, covered withtrees from 
both ends. It's sunny out here now.

I was driving and enjoying the music, suddenly I saw 3 women sittingexactly mid 
of the road with heap of straw.

As I was approaching them, I started moving the steering towards one sideof the 
road, in order to cross them without disturbing or destroying whateverthey were 
doing. But when I was about 50m away from the heap of straw, womenstood and 
started instructing me to drive my car over the heap.

The arrangement was something like this:—

I drove my car over the heap and stopped my car in the corner itself. Noticed 
that the women werecontinuously beating the heap to seperate the wheat from 
straw. Icame out and asked “ Di Can I click a pic"?

She smiled and gave me a pose 🤗

She murmured “ Di click the photo and upload it on Modi's site. And let him 
know how muchefforts we put in such scorching summer due to high cost of 
thresher.She said this in her haryanvi tone.

(Thresher- is a machine used to separate the wheat, maize other smallgrains 
from their chaff and straw).

I passed a smile to them and hold my steering back to home withoutreplying 
anything. But something stopped me. I put my car in reverse gear anddrove my 
car over the heap for 4–5 turns.

Their smiling face gave me a satisfaction, I know this small deed won'thelped 
them much but still.

The most mind blowing fact:—

1- We Indians know the jugad of slightest thing to make our work easy inany 
possible way. (Putting heap of straw in middle of road so that any 
vehiclecrossing over it may provide some ease to their work)

2- We city based humans will never understand the intensity of labour 
ourfarmers and their family put to provide us well finished products.

My note- In Tamilnadu it is acommon scene in villageroads paddy is spread with 
hey for separation along the rods
