Om Namashivaya!!
I
am really delighted with the welcoming
responses to our SIDDHI TIMES news
magazine. I am extremely surprised with
this great success in the very frst issue. At least
we get 20 to 30 people calling every day from all
parts of the country and appreciating our Siddhi
Times. I truly thank all the good souls who
called us and congratulated our efforts. As you
all know, this is the 1st All color NATIONAL
NEWS PAPER published from Atlanta for the
Spiritually enlightened community, New Age
community, and Metaphysical community.
Also our magazine is focusing on Health, Yoga,
Nutrition, Beauty, Alternative medicine and
healings.
What differentiates our magazine with other
community magazines is that this is a REAL
magazine with informative article, serving the
purpose. It’s not like a yellow page book with
90% advertisements. SIDDHI TIMES serves
the induvidual and community in a positive way.
Every edition will be preserved by our readers
and can be used as a reference at any point of
their life. Hence the advertisers get more and
everlasting focus for their advertisements. I
should really thank all my team members who
made it possible. Special thanks to Pankaj Bhatt,
Muthu, JK, Jana, Madhu, Govindarajan Iyya,
Rajagopal, Suganya, Vani, Madhavi, Sushan,
Josuha of Carrollton and all the priests from
Hindu temple of Georgia. Special thanks to
Gopalakrishna Paruchuri Garu for sponsoring
this issue.
SIDDHI team is very delighted to reach you

Sri Selvam Siddhar
(DR. Commander Selvam)
all with this 2nd issue. Please pass on your
comments, concerns, and feedback to us. If you
feel this magazine is good and benefcial, please
pass on to your friends and relatives, whereas
if something is not right, please bring it to
our knowledge only. All the team members of
SIDDHI TIMES never had much of publication,
Journalism, or editorial experience so far. We are
all united for the last 2 months to bring a good
spiritual magazine to empower the community.
and the efforts are hearing fruit.
Also if you have any of your temple, or any
kinds of spiritual activities to be published,
please feel free to send the pictures, or the
articles to siddhitimes@gmail.com. We would
happily publish the same.
We like to guarantee that we are not like the
other magazine with dictatorship. We love to
support the community. Even I have questioned
the owner of the other Magazine in particular
about their saying that theirs is a community
magazine, is it their own home community or
general community? No one is bigger than any
one. We are after all human beings. The human
birth is based on the past karma. Live peacefully
without having any kind of jealousy, and please
practice appreciation to every one. Don’t keep
adding the bad karma to your life account by the
bad thoughts and crooked mentality.
Except very few Hindu temples in USA, lot
of other Hindu temples are running with lot of
fnancial hardship. Also can you count the Hindu
temples with no politics between the members,
ego and jealousy? You would be surprised that
it’s very rare. It is my frm conviction that there
should not be any kinds of politics inside our
Temple and any one who visits the temple will
experience that every one are equal and no one
is superior or richer than any one.
There is a Hindu temple with lot of rich people
and millionaires and leading physicians as
the board members. Then what is the need for
pleading $50.00 and $100.00? If those board
members could donate their one-month income
to the concerned Temple, then the temple should
have Millions of Dollars as constant income, so
that they could pay- off their Temple loan, and
still they could run the temple in a beautiful
way.
The main problem is that most of the people
want positional fame with the titles as President,
Secretary and many other, but with some one
else’s efforts and fnances. Does writing a
check to the temple, mean that you are doing
lot of dharma and charity? “Having purity in the
mind, coming out of all kinds of ego, negativity
in the mind and politics only will make you as
great personality.” There are no back doors for
spirituality!!!
It’s a shame that many are taking advantage in
the name of service. There are lots of dance and
music teachers who are conducting classes in one
of the temple premises. There is nothing wrong
in supporting them. The students are charged
$60.00 to 100.00 per month for the classes
and $5000.00 to $50,000.00 for arangetram.
However only $50.00 of this fee goes to the
temple per month to use the temple premises. Is
this a service or willful cheating?
These so-called teachers, on an average per
month, put $5000.00 or more and arangetram
is the tune of more than $100,000.00 per year
in their pocket, but unwillingly give only $50
to the temple. To top it all, they still claim that
Temple should do more community Service. Is
this not a heartless act?
Lot of people around here, always wants to
receive all the good things for free, every time
from others, however they forget to think whether
they give anything to anybody free any time?
Recently, some board members of temple came
to me and said that “Swamiji, we do not like the
lady who is doing lot of politics, and she herself
needs lot of Psychiatric help and we like to be
the director in your temple and we will put lot
of money.” I have clearly and boldly explained
them that we do not need any money and then
inviting politics inside the temple. However
everyone are welcome to the temple. After this
conversation, all of them have absconded from
the Temple. The reason for me to bring this to
your attention is that the mind status and purity
of thoughts is more important than being in a
position for fame.
Unity is so powerful. Why to fght and
differentiate as South Indian, Tamil, Telugu
or Kannada temple, Punjabi, Gujarathi, Jain
Mandir, etc.? We all came from India to this
wonderful nation. Why can’t we be united?
It’s a history, that this nature was the reason
that British were able to rule us for long time.
We should learn the lesson. We came to this
excellent Nation, which is very wonderful, gave
immigration to live, work, enjoy our life.
This country has given us lot of wealth and good
health and rich education for our children. Here
people do not recognize someone according to
their wealth; however they respect you to your
caliber and personality. We need to take these
good things always in our life wherever we go.
Let us have a calm and peaceful life. Salute
this great American Nation, which has given
everything in our life. Support this wonderful
USA with our integrity. There is no other Nation
in the world would give this much freedom and
respect to the immigrants like USA does. Be
proud to say that we are all living in a very safe,
clean, respectable, rich nation in the world and
keep your thoughts pure.

The super human power lives in the
minds of all. The super human power can
speak to all of us. Without speaking with
the super human power, is it impossible
to lead the life with spirituality. There
are also a lot of writings and quotations
on spirituality. In his famous writing,

Tagore says, as “This is my prayer to thee

of all the religions is only to achieve the

adopted are different.

In this issue, I will explain more about joys and sorrows equally. Spirituality to give one more quotation from the
Spirituality. I wish to take the quotes
from the ancient Monk Thirumular’s
writings. He has written nearly about
3000 verses, which are the highest in
spiritual ideas. I wish to take a few verses
from his entire writing as examples and
try to explain what spirituality is.
One of his verses starting as “Natta
kallai sutri vandhu naalu Pushpam
sathiye sutri vandhu munumunuenru
sollum mandhiram yethada. Natta kallum
pesumo Nathan ulle irukkaiyil. Sutta
satti sattuavam kariyin suvai ariyumo”.
This verse is the most beautiful verse
of his entire writing. If we read, it as it
is it will show as if it is a verse written
by an retheist. However, if we go deep
into it we can see how best the poet is in
spirituality.
Normally in all the religions, there is
some resemblance for the superhuman
power. For example, if we take Hinduism
there are many divine images. If we
take, Christianity the holy Cross and in
a few sub divisions, some divine images
are worshipped. For Muslims the Kahfa
is considered as the holiest one. In some
religions, they worship fre as the super
human power’s resemblance.
The monk denies the image worship.
He tells all the divine images just as
stone. There is no use in simply going
around the stone or metal images and
murmuring some verses even without

the meaning only. One should be the best
human being. How to be the best human
being? Only by adopting peace between
the minds one can be the best human
being. The one and only way to get
peace in the minds is to lead a life with
spirituality. The simple way to lead the
life of spirituality one should equalize or
have equal vision towards all. To bring
that equal vision is very hard at the
beginning and only by the continuous
practice, we can have the equal vision.
If we have the equal vision towards all
we can lead a successful spiritual life.
The religion and spirituality are entirely
different. Religion is one of the ways to
affair spirituality.
Spirituality is not achieved on a
single day. We can achieve it only by
continuous practice. The techniques
used to have spirituality are of three
types. They are named as Sariyai, Kriyai
and Yogam. An ancient monk named
Sivagnana Siddhiyar explains in detail
about all these three techniques in his
book Sivagnana Bodham. Sariayai tells
the rules and regulations to be followed.
Kiryai is the technique to be followed and
Yogam is practice. Yogam is a process,

used to do a little prayer only. However,
she spent a lot of her time only in serving
the poor, needy and diseased people.
That in addition, she was very fond of
uplifting the people, those who suffer
from leprosy. She never felt shy or sad of
touching the lepers. Of course, she felt
very happy to serve them. That is why she
is considered as the most sacred woman
of the world. In Islam, also many people
consider the service to the humanity as
main object. Therefore, the spirituality
is entirely different from the religion.
Love, affection, devotion towards our
regular duties are the fundamentals of
spirituality. To show love, affection and
devotion, no religion is needed. It cannot
be denied that one can be the leader of
the universe by virtue of the Almighty.
However, for that leadership one should
lead a spiritual life. We can realize the
saying “Love is God”. By leading a
spiritual life, one can watch, open and
still the mind and body. The spirituality
is so to say the fundamental base of the
worldly evolution.

the unseen. Then, what’s
the difference? The difference is the impact of it.
What do you experience and what energies are created
within? Faith gives lots of positive energy, feeling of
contentment. Fear drains your energy, leaving the feeling
of unhappiness.
FEAR, as read somewhere, is an acronym for False
Evidence Appearing Real. To many people, in any new
encounter with a stranger, fear could be based on the
perception of what this person could do to us. This
“something wrong,” whatever it is, dogs us in our daily
lives, troubles our sleep, and sours our entertainments.
Each morning, reading the news paper or turning on the
television, we blame it on something new. Deep down
inside, however, we aren’t fooled; your subconscious is
labeling all the events, people and conversations. The
“something wrong” remains forever, if we don’t decide to
fade it away.
Well, how do we tackle this? What are the choices?
The one factor is to exercise Faith. Do not blame the
circumstances. Rather, when one decides to create his/her
own destiny with pure heart and right intensions, that’s
the seed of faith. The beauty is that more and more you
exercise faith, you become strong in every aspect of
your life just to realize that you really don’t have to fear
anymore. Yes, faith can really fade away the fear!
The path to enrichment and enlightenment is nothing
but complete faith. When you truly surrender yourself to
the divine, a guru, a master, God or you name any, there
is no identity for the ego. In the path of life journey, faith
is the road one travels. When there is a lack of faith, it
gets rough and more painful the journey becomes. Fear
is the road block and it’s up to the individual to get stuck
or go over and go through it to continue the journey. But
Siddhi Times USA 16
aith means seeing the unseen.
ear also means, seeing the unseen
-Suganya Pratap
with faith, one can achieve anything and everything to go
over the block and continue the journey to the destination.
“To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To
one without faith, no explanation is possible.” - Quote
Once you know, you have faith on the divine, a spiritual
source, do not doubt the source. Win that positive
energy on daily basis. Love the experience and allow the
spiritual power to come through. Do not ever doubt those
positive thoughts. The minute you have the doubt, the
Satan wins the race and possibilities are blocked. Faith
and doubt can not be together. Practicing the faith will
eliminate the “something wrong” impressions which are
created on daily basis.
Faith is truly a stretch for the mind. It can not be
identifed, but can only be felt. When you have the fear,
exercise the faith. Move on and believe on your faith. Do
not label anything as impossible. Have faith on yourself
and achieve your goals. Make it possible.
Why does a child not have any fear? Because, there
are no judgments done. There is no accumulation of
“something wrong”s. The trust factor is so high for the
child and the child chooses to exercise faith completely,
100%. Wouldn’t life be great if we all can practice child
like faith in our lives.
The trust and faith yields lot of love and passion. It
is the foundation upon which we build relationships,
encourage and motivate others. Fear brings lot of hatred
and jealousy. We may need facts for evaluating people
but not fear. The wisdom is, knowing when to use what.
Never allow any fear to grow greater than your faith!
Exercise the faith on your self to experience the personal
victory and then to enhance and empower the people
around. Enjoy the life journey! Best is yet to come ! ! !

n an outskirt of city of London, several hundred
years back, there was a fortress. A witch called ‘Jola’
was living there. She was having a Lime-Garden.
To enter into the garden it was not an easy job.
There were guards to watch the fortress. The
peculiarity of the garden was that the lemons produced
were of Gold. The witch had instructed the watch men
that if any human being touch the lemon or tree and also
attempt to pick the lemon by hooks, they will become
stones. She warned further, that if any one against her

order, touches the lemon tree would become a stone at the
Nearby the fortress, one poor man lived. He was
having a monkey. He tamed the monkey to act upon his
oral instructions. At the place of gathering of people, he
used to order the monkey to dance. He would ask the
monkey to throw away the cap. The monkey will do it
accordingly. If he says the monkey should make circle and
come around him hundred times, that order also will be
obeyed by the monkey.
One day the witch happened to go to her elder sister’s
town which was hundred miles away from her fortress.
The three watch men and the monkey master, planned to
steal the golden lemons. But they did not believe each
other. The frst-gate-man, told that he would require the
half the quantity of the stolen lemons and three more from
the share of the monkey master. The middle gate man
also told that when he reach the middle gate, the mon-
key master should give half the quantity to his share and
three more from the share of monkey master. And also
put the term that the garden lemon should not be shared
in fractional way like half or quarter. Share should be in a
form of full fruit only. For that condition also, the monkey
master agreed. The entrance gate-man, of course he was
the frst person who would permit to allow him inside the
garden, the was also putting the same condition as that of
other two.
Monkey master was actually living a hard life but he
was intelligent. He knew that if he touches the lemon tree
he would become a stone. That fear was also there to risk
his own life. So, he decided to take the monkey along with
him inside the garden. He went in and convinced the gate
men and he too, enjoyed the share and went home. How?

Mr. Muddy pit

O nce upon a time in
a city, there lived a
couple, they did not
have any children
for many years. They went to
all sacred places and prayed for
a child. After some years a baby
was bron. The parents named the
child and called him “Muddy
pit”. When Muddy pit grew up,
he became a wise merchant.
Muddy pit had a grievance in
his inner heart, One time a saint
visited that city. Muddy pit met
that saint and told his grievance.
He told that his name Muddy pit
make him unhappy and asked to
give him another good name The
saint told him to go to the city
town or a major market place,
and enquire some good name,
that may suit Muddy pit. As per
the saint’s words, Muddy pit
went in to the major market place
of town and enquired about the
other good names of the people
there.
One person said suddenly
a name “Mr.Longlive” On
enquiry he came to know that
Mr.Longlive died at an young
age. Muddy pit was startled and
wondered “How a person whose
name being “Long live” could
die very soon in his young age?”.
Another person said other name
called “Mr. Good Lord” but he
was caught in a theft case. Again
Muddy pit confused and thought
“How a person whose name is
Good Lord became a thief?” The
second name, Muddy pit heard
also was of the pitiable nature.
The names of the persons are
contrasting to the characters and
nature of those persons. He came
back to the saint and explained
what had happened in the major
market place of city. Then the
saint said “See Mr.Muddypit”
what is there in the name? A
person’s nature and character
make him as an important person
in the society”. At last Muddy
pit understood about his own
duty and service to the society.
He worked hard and moved with
people well and got fame. The
people elected him as the Mayor
of town. The name is crowned
with Mayor and people called
him as MAYOR MUddY pIT.

ffrmations are powerful
positive thoughts you can
say to yourself and visualize
it happening to you which will make a
big positive difference in your life. It
will take only 10 minutes a day. It will

your thoughts and make you stay focused

words that we speak, think and read are
very powerful. It has healing powers. It

the people we interact with.
Let’s give you an example,
Close your eyes, and say it in your

“I am a confdent person today”
“I have all the time today to do
everything I wanted to do”
How do you feel? Certainly good.
Just imagine, saying positive things
like this every day for 10 minutes will
change your life for ever. Ten minutes

entertaining ourselves. Why not change

actually we realize. Scientifcally it
is proven that the power of thoughts
can change the chemicals in our brain
which in turn affect how we physically
and mentally feel. Deep inside us,
these positive thoughts are converted to
chemicals and electrical signals which
spread through our body changing our
feelings altogether. Our thoughts can
even affect the people around us.
With that said, it is too dangerous for
us to hold on to negative thoughts such
as anger, fear or resentments. By doing
so, it creates unfavorable production of
chemicals, making a shift to prepare for
the worst and attracting the worst since
we are prepared.
Do affrmations really work?
We’ve all heard about using
affrmations as part of self development
in many places like books, speeches,
spiritual writings and this article as well.
But have any of us tried it? The question
is,
How long it will take for the
affrmation to work?
What is the right way to use them?
Why it is not working all the time?
Well, all the questions seem to be
valid. Nobody will waste time on anything
that will not produce favorable results to
them. Affrmations are like people taking
medicine. It works different for different
people. For some people a few doses of
medicine will do and for others it may
take a while. But eventually the disease
will be cured. To answer the second
question, you can use affrmations by
looking at yourself in the mirror and
saying it out loud, saying it in your mind
while you are meditating, when you wake
up from bed or just before going to bed
whichever works for you. But consistency
is the key. Keep doing it for minimum 6
weeks of time and it gets stored into your
subconscious mind. I will explain about
it in detail later in this article.
If the affrmation is not working
then there is a confict between what
your say and who you are. When you
actions become harmonious with what
you say, things you wanted in your life
will show up in your life just in front of
your eyes. It is called “Law of attraction”.
Affrmations change the way you think,
feel and believe.
How to create your affrmations?
Let’s move on to next level to learn
about how to create your own affrmations.
It should be,
• Positive
• Present tense
• Specifc to over come your issues
using everyday language.
Affrmations should be positive. If
you think about positive things you will
manifest positive things in your life. For
example, you are saying “I don’t want to
be sick”. And the assumption here is “You
are sick” and the result will be thinking
about sickness and act like a sick person
and will become more sick.
Now you are rephrasing it like “I
want to be healthy” and here again the
assumption is “You are not healthy” and
the result is you will not be healthier.
The right way to phrase an affrmation
is “I am always healthy”. The assumption
here is “You are healthy” even you may
not be. But you will act like healthy
person and one day you will become
healthy”. Now you know how this works
and how to create it without using the
word “don’t” and “want”. I hope you are
enjoying this article so far. Believe me
it really works. I am personally using
affrmations for almost 6 months and I
am seeing results.
It is not a good idea to create too many
affrmations for one goal. Limit it to 20. It
Some times more affrmations you have,
some of them will be conficting with
another. After you create the affrmations
ask yourself the following questions to
each affrmation.
Is that what you wanted?
Does it say when and how will you
get it?
Another example, “I always eat
healthy food and I am healthy” gives
“Yes” to the above two questions.
When, where and how to use
Affrmations?
Our subconscious mind is overloaded
everyday with tons of information and it is
hard for our brain to process and prioritize
things and also it happens in random
order. I would recommend starting with
three or four issues you want to change
or improve in your life and move on from
there. Each affrmation should be used
at least three times to get stored in your
subconscious mind.
Choose one the following technique
or combine them based on your need and
comfort.
Mirror Technique: Stand in front of
the mirror. Say the affrmations loud and
clear with confdence as if you already
have it. Repeat each affrmation three
times.
Meditation Technique: Meditation
is a powerful technique which has its
own benefts. You can add affrmations to
your existing meditation regime. Sit with
your spine straight and start meditating.
Once you reached a focused state, start
saying your affrmations in your mind
and repeat each affrmation at least three
times. Practice this technique for 6 weeks
and when ever needed after that.
Power Integration: You may
combine meditation technique with
this. Sit in a relaxed posture and close
your eyes. Say the affrmations in your
mind three times. Visualize your self in
getting the benefts of those affrmations.
Believe and feel everything. Think about
things that you can do to speed up your
progress to achieve your goal. Let us say
the affrmation is “I am rich”. Visualize
yourself surrounded by abundance and
all the richness you wanted like your
dream car, dream job, dream salary,
dream house etc. Feel the richness. This
technique adds more power to your
affrmation because you are experiencing
the results straight away.
Sleep Learning: This is the easiest
technique you can use. Record your
affrmations in audio and overlap your
affrmations with some soft and soothing
music and play it when you go to sleep.
You need some technical knowledge
about audio recording to do this. It is also
called subliminal messages.
Writing: Another easiest but time
consuming technique is writing your
affrmations. Find a place where you can
focus. Writing down the affrmations
in a paper and saying it in you mind at
least 10 times. The more you write the
more benefcial it will be. Practice this
everyday.
To conclude this article here is the list
of affrmations you can use to discover
you life purpose. Enjoy the benefts.

 In
the epics of India, there are lot of intutions,
justices, themes and lessons which combined in
every events.
In the land of Divines too, many happenings
took place. As upon earth, there were
competitions, jealousies and even vengeances. All the Divines called
Devindra, Sun, Jupiter, Venus Moon Saturn, Mars and Mercury all of
them had the duties to act upon the vast sky and space. The creator’s
orders were obeyed properly and the same continues still. Divines
live in Divine land and their transformed mass of bodies as planets
circle around the Sun. Our earth is controlled by sun.
In the actual lives of Divines, they continue their lively hood,
worships and learnings which are endlessly continued.
‘Jupiter’ is called as “Prahaspathi”. He was generous and had the
qualities to do good to the world as well as Divine world. He was
considered as a great teacher to the Divines. Guru is the meaning for
teacher. This expertism was known to all Divines. The desciples to
him were huge in numbers.
He taught all the lessons to become as mighty as possible.
And the art of disappearing and again coming to the visibility was
also taught. During the attacks of Demons, they come as wind and
cause great losses to the Divines by venomous air. Any tricky and
dangerous attacks could be easily understood and equally protected
by the help of Guru from whom all lessons were spread to the
Divine land. The Demons were in need of such Guru. But “Guru”
Prahaspathi won’t teach for Demons. They approached the other
Guru who was called as ‘Sukkra Acharaya.’ The planet Venus is
the transformation of Sukkra Acharya, Demons praised much and
much about him and had the boon of learning lessons from him.
Even though Sukkra Acharya was belonging to Divines, he had the
principle that if any one come and surrender as disciple, he used to
teach the lessons. No Divine could restrict him. He was as mighty
as Guru (Prahaspathi). Sukkra Acharya was teaching lessons to his
disciples in a big Ashram which was constructed in palm leaves.
Students from Divine and Demons were equally treated by him.
In the Divine land, there prevailed a doubt. The doubt was
relating to the ability of two Gurus, one was Prahaspathi and the
other was Sukkra Acharya. Many Divines informed that Sukkra
Acharya was expert in giving life to the dead ones. This secret of
bringing alive of dead persons, that too, to the same shape and age
at which one dies, who would be regaining the life.
This wonderful method was not known to Prahaspathi. The
Divines themselves felt and came to the decision that, this specifc
learning was important and needy one for them. Otherwise, the
whole Divine community may face destruction. They planed to send
one brilliant disciples from the Ashram of Guru. That student was no
other than “Khasha” the son of their Guru “Prahaspathi”. The plan
was to send ‘Khasha’ to the Ashram-School of ‘Sukkra Acharya’.
Khasha should be obedient and brilliant to learn the secret art and
must return, successfully after studying it properly.
Khasha went to the forest land of Sukkra Acharya and found
the Ashram. By his talents he joined the school without giving the
identity of his father. He was learning the lessons properly. He was
growing as an effcient student. The daughter of Sukkar Acharya
was Devayani a very beautiful and kind hearted girl. She noticed the
talents of ‘Khasha’ and fell in love with him. She used to meet him
near waterfalls and was telling her willingness.
Sukkar Acharya did not know about his daughter’s eagerness.
The other students and dull minded
disciples noticed the moments of
Khasha and Devayani. They joined
together and planed to kill ‘Khasha’.
One student told that even if we kill
him; Guru Sukkar Acharya will be
giving life to him; there fore whole
plan might be spoiled. Final decision
was reached. The decision was to kill him and burn him to ashes.
This horrible conspiracy was successfully done by them. A
little more ‘shrewd among bad’ told that the ashes in a little they
should add in the “Somabana” which their Guru uses to drink it. (A
concentrated herbal liquid which would intoxicate if any one drinks
that is ‘Somabana’) Their plan went on with success.
Devayani was looking for the arrival of ‘Khasha’. Having found
his absence she felt doubt about other disciples. Then one of the killer
team’s exposed the matter to here about the demise of Khasha. She
went straight away to father’s chamber and threw her self in front of
his legs. She wept and told with agony what all that happened. Being
the only daughter, Sukkar Acharya too felt abundantly and through
his power of aggression to know the past-events he understood and
told Devayani “Oh my pitiful daughter I am helpless .
Now – Khasha is in my stomach in the form of ash, She wept
and wept. Her father asked Devayani “Are you willing to loose your
father on account of your lover – if I give life to him I will die”.
This could be possible after piercing the stomach of me”. Her lover
Khasha could come out with life. But sure Acharya would be no
more. Devayani cried and exposed she could accept no loss either
father and lover.
Sukkar Acharya fnally told her “Dear Devayani I” m going to
teach you the Mandira (Secret chanting of sanjivini the technique
of bringing alive the dead person). You hear it carefully and I m
going to give life to Khasha “He will come alive from my stomach
- after his survival you have to carefully chant the mandira for my
survival.”
Saying this words he chanted the mandira. The ash of Khasha
turned as full structure of Khasha. Devayani delighted to see him
again. She chanted the Mandira for her father’s survival. Khasha
when he was in the stomach of Sukkar Acharya he heard the mandira
while Sukkar Acharya was chanting. In deed, his mission granted
grand success. The valiant Guru “Sukkar Acharya was pleased to
see both Devayani and her lover. Sukkar Acharya the great and
powerful Guru had understood everything in his power of aggression
of events. He was actually proud to get Kasha as his student because
Khasha was the son of very generous Guru Prahaspathi. He new the
fate of every one.
After the completion of studies Khasha was willing to go back
to his father. But Devayani pleaded with him to stay with her and
marry her; Khasha told her cleverly “Dear Devayani I’m pleased to
have your courtesy all the times of my staying; your status is here as
the daughter of Sukkar Acharya by birth; my status is also the same
because I have come out of the stomach of Guru Sukkar Acharya; I
am actually brother to you.
Those who understand the Sanjivini Mandira deem to be scholar

will follow the Judgement of God. “A brother cannot marry a sister”.

NATURAL CURE
THE FOOD SY
For Heart
T
Disease
&
he diseases which are very diffcult to
diagnose are rising day by day. Major reason
is the habits of food. During the olden days,
our forefathers continued several processes in
the common and practical way of life.
Many of the items were actually without ghee or oil.
Even the bread, chappathi, barota, etc., were the products of
wheat. The people, who were desirous to eat rice, prepared
idly, dosa and cooked rice. The usage of butter was very
less. The butter milk, after skimming out the butter, was
the classic usage of those days. The village men took the
boiled rice or wheat as food. Remaining after the lunch,
they would pour water in the cooked rice or / wheat and
preserve it for next day. The water poured, would create
yeast to proportionate strength to that watery- food which
if used along with butter milk, fresh energy as well as
briskness will increase. In place of pickles they just had
green chillies as snap-bites. Those who lived the life of
farmers had to work from dawn to dusk. In the noon, again
they would have to take cooked food which was assisted
with vegetable, gravy and mainly rasam (the essence of
spices like pepper, jeera garlic and tamarind, which served
for good digestion.
All the forefathers of the community, were either as
farmers or lived as hard workers. The diseases like “Heart
Diseases” were very rare in those days. The importance
for hygienic condition were very less during that period. In
these present days all the hunts go for money. Every one is
faster in action. So, the norms to dine properly and work
properly are missing. The usage of pan parak (Betel nut)
with calcium is in practice still. Certain amount of calcium
is needed in our food. So, the people of olden age as well
as present times the “Panparak-habit” is popular in India,
Singapore, Malaysia, Dubai and other places. The calcium
circulates in blood and remove the deposits of the fats. It
is known fact in those days.
The civilization and the modern facilities are actually
a costly measure. To fnd the heart disease the following
check up and observation are most necessary.
It is not essential that a person having heart disease will
have all the symptoms. It can be a combination of one or
more of these symptoms depending upon the severity of the
disease as well as the physical condition of the patient.
2. Heart and its functions
Heart can be considered as a tireless pump-house
supplying blood rich in oxygen to each and every part of
our body via big tube that comes out of fourth chamber.
On an average, blood is pushed in to this big tube 72times.
This is also known as heart rate or pulse rate. Heart is
situated obliquely in the chest more on the left side than
Siddhi Times USA 49
D SYSTEM
on the right. The shape of heart is that of a clenched fst,
weighing about 300gm on an average. Heart is one of the
most important organ of our body. Heart consists of four
different chambers, out of which the fourth chamber (left
ventricle) is the most important.
3. What is the Heart Disease
Angina or coronary heart disease is the most common
form of heart disease (95 out of 100). There are three main
tubes supplying blood to the heart muscle. When they get
gradually blocked with the deposit of cholesterol and
fat, the coronary heart disease develops. These blockages
develop over the years. Whenever the percentage of
the blockages reach more than 70% a person develops
coronary heart disease Shortage of oxygen in the heart
muscles leads to pain in the chest, typically known as
angina pain. Coronary heart disease is also known as
Ischaemic Heart disease.
REASONS FOR DEVELOPING
HEART DISEASE
Reasons for this disease are numerous, certain reasons
are within our control (modifable) and others are out
of our control (non modifable). Let us frst discuss non-
modifable reasons.
Non – modifable reasons
1. Age - more common in 50-60 years of age group.
2. sex- males are more prone to this disease, male to
female ratio is 10:1
Siddhi Times USA 50
3. Hereditary plays a crucial role and the
probability of getting this disease relatively high if a close
relation is already suffering from Heart Disease.
MODIFIABLE REASONS
Related to fats and oils.
1. Increased cholesterol
This is a fat of animal origin and is one of the
components of blockages. An increased value of
cholesterol in blood is absolutely not desirable. Normal
blood level of cholesterol is between 130-200 mg per
100ml.
2. Triglycerides
This is oil of vegetable origin and is one of the
component of blockages. It should always be kept within
reference limits. Normal value of triglycerides is between
60-150 Mg per 100Ml.
3. LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein)
This is a combination of cholesterol and triglycerides
along with proteins formed in the liver. Its amount in blood
is directly proportional to cholesterol and triglycerides.
Normal values should be less than 130 Mg per 100 Ml.
 4. HDL (High Density Lipoprotein)
This is the only good cholesterol present in the
blood. It helps in the removal of block-ages. It’s
higher values are desirable. Normal value is -60 Mg
per 100Ml.
B. Conditions which Aggravate the deposits
1. High Blood Pressure
(Normal blood pressure value
Systolic = 110-140 mmHg
Diastolic = 70-90 mm Hg)
2. High Blood Sugar
(Normal fasting value 80-110Mg % and after 2
hours of meals 110-150 Mg %)
3. Obesity
(More than 10% of normal weight is overweight
& more than 20% of normal weight is obesity)
4. Smoking
Includes cigarette cigars, beedi and chewing
tobacco
5. Low level of physical activity sedentary
lifestyle.
6. Low fbre diet, fast foods etc.
7. Alcohol People of the modern world, almost are well aware of

In India there is a state called Punjab In that
state there is a village in the name of Thalvanthi.
In that village a great poet cum saint was born.
His name is Guru-Nanak.
His father’s name was Kalyan chandh and
mother’s name was Thriptha. The parents named
and called him as “Nanak”. Their family was a
wealthy one.
When Nanak grownup, his parents sent him to
a school. In the school a teacher taught a lesson
and asked him to write-down the lesson. But
Nanak did not do it. When that teacher asked
Nanak “why you have not written down the given
lesson.” Nanak replied “I am thinking about the
origination of sound and formate of the sound”
By hearing his reply the teacher got surprised.
Then the teacher took Nanak to his home and
told the parents that “this boy has incomparable
superior-knowledge, so treat him well and choose
some other good-teacher to teach him.”
The time for naming-ceremony (Poonool
Kalyanam) came. That is ‘upanayana’ putting a
sacred thread on the chest and around the waist.
Nanak refused the holy-thread and sang a song
meaning” Mercy is the cotton. Every one’s mind
with satisfaction is the sacred thread and truth is
the knot to be cared and to be worn on the chest.
Then Nanak’s father gave him some work
of attending cows and cattle. Then again asked
Nanak to do the work of farmer in the wheat-
feld. One day when Nanak due to the hard-
work slept under a tree. At that time,a venomous
serpent came nearer to Nanak and extended it’s
Guru Nanak
fore-head upon the Nanak’s fore-head and went
away as a sign of blessing.
Nanak’s father arranged marriage for him.
Some years passed, Nanak became a father to two
children. Even then Nanak was in philosophic
mind only. While Nanak was in meditation he
achieved some super-natural powers such as,
visualizing objects of the very distant places and
hearing the voices of some persons from far away
distances. But Nanak was not interested in that
super-natural power or siddhies. Again Nanak
went into deep-meditation to know about God’s
nature and qualities. He actually meditated in a
grave yard.
Then Nanak attained the pure wisdom. During
his life too many miracles took place.
When he went to Mecca. Nanak and some
other Muslims were nearer to a mountain. But
water was not there in the lower part of the
mountain. Nanak went upwards of the hill and
tried to fetch some water. But at that fountain,
a cruel person was there and refused water; to
be taken. Then Nanak came below the mountain
and asked one of the fellow-men to dig at a place.
That fellow digged the earth for sometime. Then
water began to fow from that particular spot.
While the water was over-fowing in the digged
spot, the fountain upon hill started to decrease.
Then Nanak completed the visit to Mecca and
came back.
Nanak and his disciples preached Nanak’s
Gospel, Allah or Eshwar is one-but different in
names.
Once Nanak met a person who was slaughterer
and thief whom Nanak made him a pious man.
Nanak attained Maha-Samadhi or moksha
where a huge temple was built and the temple
was decorated with Gold. It is called Golden
Temple for Sikhs. It is to be noted Nanak’s
golden temple and acres of agricultural land in
a village were given by that thief-man who later
turned as a devotee of Guru-Nanak. One of the
poem of Guru-Nanak ever to be remembered is
the worldly people used to call, “God-minded
persons as ghost caught people and the pious
people as mad-persons.”
It is happening every where in the world.
Nanak was against caste and untouchability.

Why Atma - Jnan? ( self
realization)
Every human being has three types
of energy, (I) Physical energy (ii),
Intellectual energy and (iii) Internal
Energy that is our Soul. Among all
three , the energy of Pure Soul is
the source for the other two forms
of energy. When the soul leaves
the living body Physical energy and
Intellectual energy are no longer there
in non living body. , . That is why
the Pure soul is superior to Physical
(Body), and Intellectual (mind)
energy since it is the very source of
our Existence. Now in many Vedic
scriptures it is said that Atma, pure
soul itself is Parmatma, meaning
pure Soul is God which is why all
scriptures say “Know Thyself”.
Without this knowledge, one cannot
attain the state of Parmarthma Atma -
Jnan or experience of Pure Soul or self
realization is akin to God realization.
The consequence of this is One sees
Siddhi Times USA 56
(Ou r True self, Self r ealization)
only the Pure Soul everywhere all the
time and he always remains in His
Blissful state of mind unperturbed by
the events and for ever living in the
Present. One of the distinguishing
characteristics of the Gynani is that he
is always living in the Present.
Where and how can we get Atma-
Jnan?
It is common knowledge that
to be able to swim or drive a car it
is not suffcient to read books on
the subject or watch others do so. .
Books and other forms of instruction
can give only useful guidance and
understanding of swimming and car
driving. In the same way. spiritual
books or spiritual Video and Audio
cassettes can give us guidance and
knowledge (to an extent) what is Atma
Gynan?? To be able to experience and
truly live a life of a realized soul, one
has to seek a Gynani who has and is
living in body, mind and speech just
like us and can lead us on the right
path so that our mission is fulflled.
Again, he can only be a guide but
a Living guide with whom we can
freely communicate and seek proper
guidance. Lord Krishna highlights the
importance of the Gynais to Arjuna to
bring out the Greatness of the Gynani,
He categorically tells Arjuna that this
Knowledge can only be obtained by
Complete Surrender to the Gynani
who will then guide you and take you
to your fnal liberation. Why so???
Because Lord Krishna knows that
the Gynani sees only the Pure Soul ,
God, in each and every living being
and to him everything in this world is
Only Atma and Avastha, the former
being your true Self and the latter the
circumstances that continuously come
and go which are refected in our mind,
speech and body, again, due to the
Existence of the SELF (Atma)within
us.which remains as the “ witness” of
everything
All the religious scriptures, Vedas,
Upanishads proclaim after repeated
negations of everything around us in
this world that” “this is Not the I,” this
is not the I (Brahman) that the “I,” is
not something that is external to us but
it is a State of Being. From this we can
infer that what we refer to as a Gynani
is not the Person but the Dasha---the
State of Being. At all times while
living in the mortal body the Gynani’s
state remains UNPERTURBED,
This state is the culmination of the
search for ones true identity in many
former births. From then on it is the
Liberated State of the Gynani that we
see and experience if we are fortunate
to meet one in our life time. By living
out his natural life in this state he is
the exemplar of what the scriptures
refer to as the Nirvikalpa Samadhi.
The Jains refer
 to this state as the Vitrag (no Rag
and dwesh) state.Those who have been
sincere after the pursuit of liberation
birth after birth, for the sake of those
souls, Nature bestows amidst them in
age after age a Gynani who, through
his infnite Grace and infnite Karuna,
liberates them from the shackles of
birth and death. Lord Krishna affrms
to Arjuna when asked what happens
to those who seek the Atma Gynan
but do not attain this in this lifetime ..
Lord Krishna tells Arjuna that In this
path there is no return, you only go up
and realize your True Self.. Vashistha
was a Jnani himself, a self realized
soul and he, through his divine grace,
gave Atma- Jnan to Lord Rama The
understanding that who you are, the
knowledge of one’s true self enabled
Rama. who was already ready for
this Knowledge, to separate his roles
and conduct himself in a way that
ultimately led to Moksha..
Vashista was at the level of Pure
soul that’s how he was able to see that
Rama will reach the level of Pure Soul
and achieve Moksha. In the same
way, Lord Krishna the Atma –Jnani .

his grace during Geeta-Jnan. For The Necessity for Reading

why it is rare to come in contact with a

reasons other than what we normally
attribute to Kaliyug (dishonesty,

contact with a Truly enlightened soul-
--one who is totally detached from

that is referred to is not indifference
but total detachment meaning not even
a trace or speck of Rag or Dwesh.

 mental), we should also give
Food for our spiritual development.
Therefore the books, temples and
all Adhyatmic activities should be
balanced in our day to day life. By
studying spiritual books, lectures etc
and assimilating the knowledge and
living a life of morality and sincerity
one is prone to do good deeds which
will result in Punya. By leading such
a life, at the right time, we are given
the gift of a Gynani by Nature (the
birth and time of a Gynai in our midst
is purely a Natural process) whose
only purpose is to set the ripened and
ready souls on the path of Liberation-
--Moksha.
What Books can not give : Books,
Cassettes etc. cannot take away the
Ego which is the source of our wrong
belief starting with I am this BODY
with a name and all other attributes.
Along with this wrong belief we
associate doership to everything that
happens---I did, he did , she did, which
is far from the truth.
The Gynani in his unique way
fractures these wrong beliefs and
makes one realize One.s own true
identity, At the same time, the ego in us
is rooted out and in its place is seated.
if you will, the Awareness that we are
not the doer but only a witness all the
time of what is happening. Gradually
this awareness results in a state where
we accept everything in the course
of obligations or debts (and receive
the benefts as gifts or credits) and
use the ego only in the Functional
needs of the body, mind etc ---eating
,sleeping, working etc but always
careful to refrain from assertions ,
insistence, opinions, judgement etc
which is the nature of the worldly
ego.. Books Cassettes are non-living,
it has no vitality, while Atma is Vital,
It is Life itself/. How can a non-vital
entity give experience of the vital?.
Writing a check to the temple doesn’t account for Dharma in your life
Siddhi Times USA 58
What is Moksha ?
Moksha is not a state to reach as is commonly believed. It is the
awakening and dawning which culminates in total freedom from all
types of bondage which result in the repeated birth and death cycles
of the physical body to dispense the Karmas(papas and punyas).
Paradoxically while we dispense our past karmas, we also accumulate
new karmas due to our wrong belief that we are the doer and our
mind, intellect and ego endorse all our actions as “ours” which bears
the consequence of repeated births. Atma Gynan imparts that
Knowledge and Right Belief that leads to freedom from our actions
even in this very life. It changes our understanding completely and
that knowledge becomes the guiding light for the remainder of this
life and the lives to come
Is there any rules or any requirement for having Atman Jnan ?
No there are no rules at all, Jnani never tells do this or that or don’t
do that. He never tells, give up this and accept that, He never tells
anyone to give up his or her religious belief.
Atma Jnan is a Vision, the vision Arjuna got from Krishna.
The Only requirement is readiness to submit your ego and the
frm conviction that I don’t know anything ( like Arjuna said to
Krishna “ I don’t know anything” )

 SCHOOL OF PHILOSOPHY maid mistook the habits of Vinoba and Visutha.
Several hundred years ago, there lived a teacher Farm house
called Triguna who was teaching the village people, The servent maid reached the farm and informed
grammer, philosophy and spiritual matters.There were something about Vinoba to his father, who as hastily

was at the age of nineteen and Visutha was about School
seventeen. Vinoba was the son of a land lord Marg. of
Visutha was the daughter of a Blacksmith.
Philosophy and Chadur Vedha were also
taught; Both Vinoba and Visutha philosophy
were brilliant Under the shadow of a tree in the
school Vinoba met Visutha and told “Dear
Visutha we are youngsters–we are dreaming for a
happy life on this earth–but my father is not aware of
in our love-he is arranging some one as a wife to me–my
l e a r n i n g . heart in broken into pieces now”.
During the Having these words, Visutha’s eyes were with tears
period of learning, they loved each other. and she spoke “I am an unfortunate girl–my fate is too

BURIAL GROUND Vinoba told then “My dear, we have read everything
On the way to river, a burial ground was there near in the school–we are taught to worship the Mother,
the village. The walls were covering the area of the Father, Teacher and God – I do not know to act against
ground. By that time, the servant maid of the house of the will of father.”
Vinoba, happened to look him with Visutha. Servant “My world is this” I know Father, Mother, Teacher
maid in her eyes showed some suspicion.Vinoba did and you” if I happen to go against mother and father,
not care and went inside the compound. The servant our teacher will also curse me–tell me what to do?”
She continued to weep and came to the decision
that this birth will be not fortunate enough for her, to
be the wife of him.
She prayed the Almighty for a boon to have Vinoba
as her husband at least in the next birth.
FARM HOUSE
A farm land and the home in the midst of the trees
and crops were the properties of Vinoba’s father
Marg. The girl Sushma belonged to a rich family was
wedded to Vinoba. She was always proud of her wealth
and jewels. Vinoba was looking the farm works and
started earning. Since he was a true and honest son
to his father, he obliged him and cared all the welfare
of his wife Sushma. She was behaving like a queen
of the farm.There was a shed adjacent to the house
where a bullock cart was ready for the use of travel.
Vinoba was leaving to a distant place for collection of
dues. Sushma ordered him to bring the money safely
with out doing any expenditure. He commenced his
travel in the bullock – cart.
BLACK SMITH YARD
After collection of money, Vinoba was returning
home. One of the wheels went out of order. So, Vinoba
Siddhi Times USA 59
came to the yard of black smith who had gone out
side; but was received by his classmate Visutha. She
was enquiring the welfare of his wife. Considerable
time passed and yet the father of Visutha had not
returned. During their occasion of this meet, she had a
doubt in the theory they read. So, in order to examine
the question they had to go inside the room of the
house. The servant maid of Vinoba’s house, happened
to cross nearby she suspected the events and went to
farm.Then Vinoba and Vishutha came back again
to blacksmith yard and taking about other subjects.
After few minutes the blacksmith came and repaired
the wheel. Vinoba has paid the cost of the material
and labour to Visutha’s father. Vinoba started to his
home.
FARM HOUSE
The cart was reaching near the house. Sushma and
the servant maid were standing near the door. The
husband did not even enter the house, Shusma asked
“Have you brought all the money safely?”
Vinoba smiled and told “Little money is spent on
account of repair of Cart-Wheel the balance is safe.”
The wife began to spoke wantonly.
“It is just a lie I can’t accept it. The money is spend
for some other purpose. I know you have met a girl
she could have taken it.” This loose talk was opposed
by Vinoba and he in reply told “What nonsense, you
are speaking Shushma? Am I a person of lust? Don’t
behave like this–It is not good for you.” Saying these
words he went in to his room.
The suspicion grew deeply in the heart of Sushma
about the character of her husband. Vinoba was always
Siddhi Times USA 60
obliging to his wife and days were passing.
RIVER SIDE WAY
Two years after, when Sushma was returning from
river along with the servant maid, she saw a dead
body of a female, which was taken towards the burial
ground. The servant maid after enquiry revealed that
Visutha fell ill for last two years and died. Sushma
behaved as if she grieved with demise of Visutha.
Again one year passed, one day the rain was pouring
like anything. Vinoba was on way to his friends house.
Because of rain, he entered in-to the people -shed of
the burial ground. He was looking at the grave yard
of Visutha.
The rain was lashing the grave yard. In those days
there were no coffns. Soil and mud removed little by
little. Vinoba happened to see the skull of Visutha. On
curiosity and the enthusiasm he took it and looked
into the skull of Visutha. He felt very sorrow, and
covered the skull in his towel and went back to home,
without going to his friend’s house. His mood was
actually painful.
Farm House
Vinoba went straight to cart-shed and kept the
towel covered skull in a hole of the roof of the shed.
Through the window, his wife saw this event. The
dresses of Vinoba were drenched in rain. So, he went
to his room and changed the dress and slept. The
suspicious Sushma went to the cart shed and took the
towel-covered skull. She was with great doubts and
imagined that her husband could do some black magic
in the night. With confusion she kept that skull at the
same place. Next day when the servant maid came,
she consulted with her. Servant maid told to Sushma
that her husband used to go to burial ground and on
one occasion, she saw him along with Visutha. The
statement concluded her, that part played by Visutha
was something black magical with her husband. So,
even without waiting one second, she went to the cart-
shed and took the skull. She kept it on a tool which
was used to separate rice from paddy. She brought
the striking rod and began to attack the skull with all
her vengeance; she was breaking the skull into pieces.
Hearing this noise, Vinoba wake up from sleep and
came. He saw his wife as a ferocious woman.
She was scolding her husband in a slung language
“While I am alive, you do, black magic and bring
back your lover and want to lay with her”
Husband replied in a soft manner “You see,
Sushma I am not so mean, as you say–I act only upon
the orders of my father–I still follow and doing the
duty of husband. My conscience will do no harm to
anybody. Visutha is just a class mate for me, of course
our friendship turned as love, but, we did no injustice
on this earth. Sushma asked then “why should you
bring a skull to home and hide it.”
He replied “Sushma, you are always with doubt
and imagine the worst. The secret is this–my teacher

For the surface of face, the synthetic mixed bleaching
agents are sold with gold labels and also with heavy
costs. In the olden days, the turmeric powder, sandal
wood powder and Bengal gram powder were used.
Still it is popular. The sandal wood powder with water
base; can be applied to face during night times. After
one or two hours, the face washings can be made and
rubbed through cotton towel.
Turmeric powder is not advised since the colour
of skin is getting turned for yellowish shade. Bengal
gram powder is superb to keep the face with softness.
This application also just for a hour or two will serve
the purpose. The dryness, pimples on face and oily

the creator on skull. It is belonged to Visutha. It is
written upon her skull, at this young age, she should
die. Even after the death she has to face torchers as if,
you have done it now to the skull of a dead woman.”
When her husband himself confrmed the skull to

was crazy and that he attempted the black magical
processes.’
She spoke to him “Tell, tell, what all you could lie.
If it is just a friendship, why should you preserve her
skull at home and hide it in Cart-Shed?
As a reply Vinoba told “you are with jealousy and
suspicions. No one, could stop the fate–it is written in
her skull that when the skull happens to be damaged
by anyone, the life mate of the person will die–so I
wanted to preserve in a secret place.”
Saying these words, he fell down and died on the
spot. The Spiritual, Metaphysics, and Secret of fate
are dealt as very secret things. Shusma with a hasty
and vehement act lost her husband and a life.

 VEDIC ASTROLOGY
I
n the last issue, I discussed about the Vedic Astrology and
the basics ofAtharava VedicAstrology. In this issue, I wish
to discuss about the problems faced by each one of us and
the ways to get rid of those problems. First, I wish to take
the basic problem that is Sex. As an old saying, “Even
though it does no good it is very hard to be without it”. Certain
works in the world needs only physical strength. For example
lifting a weight. Certain works need only mental strength. For
example working with a computer. It needs only mental power
and there is no need for physical strength. Only sex is the work,
which needs mental and physical strength. As according to
Atharva Veda the planet Venus, which is called as Sukran, is the
in charge of enjoyments. Many people suffer due to this and
they go to a sexologist for their health check up. They undergo
a lot of medication but the result will be nothing. The planet
Venus, if he is in his own house individually in one’s horoscope
it is very sure that the person will have a satisfed sexual life. If
the plant Venus is in his full power (uccham) it is sure that, the
person will wander for more and more sex. If the planet Venus
is powerless in a male’s horoscope, he will have the problem
of premature ejaculation. If the planet Venus is powerless in a
female’s horoscope, she will wander for having sex with more
than one man. If the planet Venus is along with the Planet Moon
in a female’s horoscope it is sure that she will have more than
one partner for sex. If the planet Venus is with the planet Mars
in a male’s horoscope it is sure that he will be a homosexual
personality. If the planet Jupiter is with the planet Venus, in
one’s horoscope, he/she will have no interest towards sex. These
are only examples. There are many things to analyze regarding
one’s sexual life and how much enjoyment one will have in the
life. The transit of major planets like Jupiter, Saturn, Raaghu
and Kethu also play a major role in deciding the capacities of an
individual. The planets are the only authorities to decide on the
life of an individual. There is a vast differen between the regular
astrology and Vedic astrology.
According to the regular
astrology, only the planetary
position of an individual is
analyzed. However, in Vedic
astrology the Karma is also
being analyzed. Especially
Atharva Veda deals a lot in all
these aspects. Our ancestors
were intellectual giants. They
have foreseen what will
happen in future and how to
come out of those troubles. It
will be the best way to consult
VOL: 2
an Atharva Veda scholar before
taking important decisions. Only
by taking the consultation and
adopting the procedures advised
by the Vedic scholar, anybody can
come out of their problems very
easily. The procedures may be
tough at times to adopt but having in
keenness to get out of the problems
one should adopt the procedures
as prescribed by the Vedic scholar.
We all consult the doctor to come out of our physical ailments
and we take the medications as per the advice of the doctor. Like
that, we should undergo the prescribed procedures prescribed by
the Vedic scholar to have a beautiful life.
The next problem that I am going to analyze is the problem
in getting good children. Many of us get married and lead a
family life. However, a few are unable to get a child in the
proper time. Some get children in the proper time, but they
face many troubles with the children. The children may be
always sick, mentally retarded, very dull in their education and
other activities etc. There are many reasons for all these kinds
of problems. In deciding the factors, the ffth place, called as
“Santana Sthaanam” and the ninth place, called as “Anubhava
Santhaana Sthaanam” plays major role. The planets sitting in
the places, their relationships with the owner of the house are
to be analyzed. The Vedic Astrology can also easily analyze the

 Worshipping of Idols

I n the Indian state of Tamilnad is there a great

Tamil scholar lived by the name K.V.Jagannathan.
One day one person asked worshipping Idols are we
really “worshipping Gods themselves?” To that question
K.V.Jagannathan replied “While worshipping the idols, people
use to think that the idols or vigrahas are really Gods and not
just statues. That kind of faith and frm-belief the people get
“blessings”
Then he explained “what we are using as currency are not
really currency notes but, they are only promisary notes; in
every rupee note, we can see the following words written. “I
promise to pay to the bearer the sum of rupees such and
such” like that we give respect and importance to the
idols of Gods and idols of Gods grant blessings
to the devotees. The scholar’s answer will “Meenakshi Kum Kum”
suit to the whole people of world and
religions.
O nce world famous bishop Charless peter visited India.
He was against the policy of worshipping idols.Bishop
Charless peter visited many places in India. He also made visits to
the main temples and churches in India.
One person asked him a question;“Is God present in temples and
in the sacred powder and sacred kum- kum (viboothi-kum kum) given
in the temples”.To that question, the bishop replied “In Tamilnadu
I made a visit to the Meenakshi temple at “Madurai”a temple town
and received the sacred “kum kum.” I have examined thoroughly
the sacred kum-kum and found ‘there is a deep magnetic-power
in that powder’.I had kept it for years and after that again
I examined the sacred ‘kum-kum’and found the same
magnetic power was presenting then in that kum-kum
which made me surprised. We can realise power
of Goddess present in the sacred ‘kum-
kum’and sacred powder. (Viboothi)

M ichale Angelo was a great artist in Italy. Once he went

into the market. At one shop, he saw a fat-marble stone
for sale. He asked the shop keeper, “What is the price for that marble
stone?” The shop keeper replied “That stone is here for a long time, and
no one is willing to buy it and it is also an obstacle for my business, Then
again the shop-keeper said
“I give you the fat marble stone free of cost, if you take it to your
place.” Michale Angelo took that marble stone through labourers to his
house. One year had passed. He invited the shop-keeper to his house.
To that shop-keeper Michale Angelo, showed a piece of painting in
that every same marble stone. A painting work was done by him as
if the mother Mary was bringing down the crucifed Jesus from
the holy cross and keeping him in her laps. The shop-keeper
was astonished. Michale Angelo said “the fat marble stone
was with dust and dirt. When that dirt, dust unwanted
matters were removed a piece of painting was
born. When we remove the unwanted
things in our mind we get dignity
and respect.

 Value of human life
I n Hindi there was a great writer called Duvethi. His full name
was Acharya Higaari Prasad Duvethi. Once he went to his farm
house, in the morning. He walked around the wheat feld. By that time
one woman in that farm cried seriously. Hearing that, Duvethi went to
that direction and saw a woman worker who was bitten by a poisonous
snake. The snake had bitten at the right fore leg of that woman. Duvethi
tried to give frst-aid treatment to that worker. He looked around, but no
one came to rescue her. So Duvethi was wearing the sacred thread which
was in his chest around the waist, Duvethi belonged to upper caste of
Brahmin, where as the worker belonged to scheduled caste. Duvethi
picked out the sacred thread (thick twine) from his chest. Through that
sacred thread, he tied the upper part of fore leg of that woman. Then
with the edge of knife which was used to cut the crops, Duvethi pierced
the spot where the snake had bitten her. With some quantity of blood,
snake poison went out down wards. By that frst aid, worker woman
saved from death. But hearing this, all the upper caste people and
Brahmins gathered there and they began to abuse him. Because Duvethi
disobeyed the norms by using sacred thread for the sake of a woman,
that too she belonged to scheduled caste. But he discarded the horrible
words of the crowd and went in-to his farm house with the satisfaction
of saving a human life. God has created every one as human only and
foolish principle of untouchablity is against the will of God.
The Power of
Silence
O nce in China a great prophet called
Confucius felt tired of preaching to
the people. He said to one of his disciple “Here after
I wont spell out anything throughout my life” The
disciple got surprised and said; “if you stop speaking
we may not be able to learn anything from you. So do
not stop and practice that silence “(Mouna-Viratham)”
But Confucius replied. this:
“The infnite sky never produces any sound but
seasons like summers and winters are occuring
regularly, through out all the years; and many
miracles and changes, take place in the
infnite sky without making any noise”
That is the power of Silence and
practice to be Silent !

Gowtham Buddha
An Incident with

O nce the disciple of Gowtham Buddha

appraised him by saying “you are the
light of the world which brings mercy to the
universe. No one is equal to your wisdom.”
After hearing this Buddha ordered him to
stop his ‘praise’ and asked the disciple in the
following manner;
“Do you know anything about the great
persons of wisdom. Who had passed away
from this world? The disciple said “No”
Then Buddha asked; “Do you know anything
about the forth coming great saints who will
have wisdom.? The disciple said again “No.”
Buddha asked him “At least Do you know any
thing about this name as Buddha, which really
exists? The disciple said “No.” Then Buddha
said “Don’t praise or pay attribute to any one.
By praising some one, either you or me shall
get nothing, so don’t pay attribute to any one
in this world.

“ G comments nani
is not left from
I
n India, the southern region is
Tamil Nadu.Several hundred
years back one saint lived near
chennaiappan pattinam.He was
very courtecious to all the human
beings and animals. He was considered as
“Gnani” (saint with spiritual power).It was
a hot summer. “Pattinathar” was his name
who was loved by one and all.
Since he travelled from a distant place
he was in a sleepy mood. There was a
paddy
feld closer to a banian tree. The
shadow of the tree was spreading
on the paddy feld. Because it was
summer; there were no crops on
feld. The feld was dry and fat.
He lay down on the feld which was
under the banian tree.. During the seeding
times, the feld would be made in segments
and square so as to store the needy water for
paddy-plant. So, a little thickness of border
of soil, all around the square and blocks,
would be created for the convenience of
irrigation. That will stretch all over the
irrigating area.
The Ggnani in an ease to sleep, he
treated the soil border as pillow and laid his
head on it. He tried to sleep. By that time
the ladies of village, in order to fetch the
water from canal, were passing on that way.
Usually the village ladies would be shrewd
and fun .One of the lady, commented “look
dear friends, the Gnani is using the soil-
border as pillow and sleep.” The other lady
told her “it is quite natural for every body,
when the body feel the exertion, they have
to take rest. Do you mean Gnani should
not look for any comfort?”
“
This conversation’ Gnani Pattinathar’
happened to hear casually. Then he felt,
that he should not expect such pleasure
any where and even when he happened to
lay on ground. He moved away and kept
his arm in support to head and slept. The
village ladies were then, returning from
canal. They noticed the Gnani and again
started to speak. One lady began her talk
“see now, the Gnani is sleeping by putting
support of his folded arm in place of pillow.
It is sure Gnani has over heard what we
have spoken”
This comment was confrmed by
another lady who replied “yes-yes, how a
Gnani could act as an ordinary man, with a
sense to over hear our talks?” Gnani heard
this conversation also while the ladies
were crossing the boundary. He felt a lot
and prayed the God “Oh Lord, still how
many years and times I should be upon this
world? When am I to receive your call?”
After suffering with so many hinderances
one day, he came to the sea-shore where the
children were playing the “hide and seek”.
There was a big bamboo basket near by. He
called the children and told “Oh my lovely
children permit me to hide my self in this
basket.Gnani sat on ground and covered
him self with the basket. After the play
was over, the children found that Gnani
who sat in side the basket was no more and
diappeared
It was the will of the Almighty to take
him to Heaven. Gnani Pattinathar had the
blessings of God and attained immortality.
