.. Large-Hearted INDIAN-HERITAGE Exemplary for MANKIND

Even the Non-Indian Foreigners like Dr. Anne-Besant, Dr. Max-muller, Dr. Percival and such others have praised highly of Indian-Heritage...

.. especially the Vedas, Upanishads Geetha and the like... alongside the Vedic- Culture of India

... being inherent and implied with Great Sense of High Moral-Values as the Exemplary Scriptures of Universal- spirit.. irrespective of Religious aspect...

.. rather as Commonly applicable to any Human... all over the World.. irrespective of the Social Vivi-sectional... or Sectarian.. or National boundaries..

No doubt the parallel Holy-Scriptures such as the Bible, Koran, Dhammapada and the like too...

... convey to Mankind several Gospels of Human- values .

But what is the Rudimentary Vedic-Sense and Heritage-content as worthy for a Common-Man...

.. the Unique-Message of Moral-Values... worthy towards MEANINGFUL LIFE.??

Let us discuss here in a Healthy, SECULAR and NON-RELIGIOUS Simple approach of Concern to any Individual member of Global- Humanity.

Hari-Ohm !!! Lokaah-Samasthaah Sukhino bhavanthu !!!

(Oh! God our Protector and the Conservator of PROSPERITY... Let all the People in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE... be Happy)

Ohm Santhi ! Santhi !! Santhi !!!

( Oh! God ... Let PEACE prevail within Me.. as well as in the places around me...

... Peace... in others and those places away from me... and...

... Peace for those elsewhere unknown to me being Strangers along with their places too)

..God's PARTIALITY in Koorma-Awathaaram.?.

.Answer.!

Without looking at it... just as a Mythological Story.. or doubting on its Veracity...

..as may be acceptable to the Reasoning of the Contemporary age..

...We have to take only the Message behind and the Valuable Lessons out of this God's Drama...

...an ETERNAL LIFE- GUIDANCE for Humanity.

I need not elaborate the Story further... since already known to all.

But the Answer for the Wise Questions raised.

Yes. Sukrachariar the Asura-Guru made a vociferous complaint to Brahma and then questioned the propriety of Vishnu...

...seriously alleging as his Partiallity... and injustice meted out to his disciples, Asuras.

Vishnu replied to Sukrachariar thus...

(1) Yes. Indeed it was Myself... who insisted on Devas to invite Asuras too and ensure a Joint effort... in a Friendly Team Spirit

Because all my creations including Asuras... are my children... whom I am eagerous to upliift somehow. My intention and advice was to forget all the past atrocities commited by Asuras...

..and give them a fair-chance to rise up at least now by this rare opportunity.

Besides as a Praayachiththam and Parihaaram for all their past Sins... by way of unfairness to Devas...

...I wanted the Asuras also take equal amount of pains at par with Devas.

Whereas your disciples have not improved at all.. but continue to dominate over others...

..taking undue advantage of unusual mights bestowed... plus a rare prevelege to fetch Nectar.

Your Disciples the Asuras... behaved not only as the constant Enemies of Devas.. even at this stage..

..and proved as highly selfish too... by feeling happy on hearing heavy loss of Lives of Asuras too, their brethren...

...under the onsalught of the Snake's poisonous emissions.!

Thus Asuras proved that they do not deserve anymore encouragement... but only punishment.

So I had to intervene... and render justice to Devas.

Sukrachariar could not further claim.. in favour of his disciples Asuras...

...but became Dumb-founded.!!

Hence the Lesson to Mankind is...

God is prepared to forgive and forget the past misdeeds and shower His benign grace...

..provided, we realise our self-misconducts, INTROSPECT, Confess..

...and HONESTLY prove our intention by means of our FUTURE APPROACH of...

..GOODNESS TO ALL of the Society...

..with UNFAILING EMPATHY, Reciprocal Sincerety and UNITY...

...coupled with UNIVERSAL-LOVE.!!!

. Why Lord KRISHNA behaved as THIEF.? as Child's Play?

Was He not rich enough to get abundantly from his Mother Yasodha.?

..Or was He over-controlled by His Mother... denying His Wishes and Demands.?

.Is it an Exemplary Lesson for Mankind.? How and Why.?

Yes. There is an Invaluable HIDDEN TRUTH... behind His Childhood plays..

...the God's invaluable Message by ENACTMENT and Implementation of the Divine TEXTS...and the VEDIC GOSPELS...

coupled with a Practical CODE OF LIFE-GUIDANCE...

...Ever applicable to Mankinnd of all Eras and Ages....

..especially the MOST RELEVANT for the Contemporary Era...

..irrespective of Religious and other aspects of Segmentation of One Human-Society...

..as well as the various MAN-MADE Divisions and Yardsticks...

... for One Mankind.!

My Dear Friends,

I invite your Thoughts and Knowledge on the subject.

.Please put forth analytically...

..Pro or Anti.!. ???

..coupled with Universal-Love.!!!

What is the Concept of Deepavali-Festival.?...

...So called FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS.!!!

According to Vedas, Upanishads and Sasthras... backed by Scientific analysis...

... it is an Annual Festival... conducted in the "Aippasi" Tamil month.. by Agriculturists mainly...

...supported by all the People of different professions too.!.

It is a Collective Prayer of Nature... combined with Auto-Suggestion and Optimism..

The Concept of Auto-Suggestion... dispelling the Darkness in Life... and enlightening by Self-Endeavour supported by Nature the Super-Human God.!

...plus the SOCIETY ON THE WHOLE. !!!

Self-Ascertainment of MUTUAL-DEPENDANCY... enhanced by the PLEASURE to OFFER... as Duty / COMMITMENT...

...More than the Concept of Self- Right to Claim...

...as the Case of an Individual Man, the Limb of the Society-Body.

Pongal festival is also for Lord Krishna and Bogi for Indiran and Mattu Pongal for Lord Shiva

we all know that,in order to teach Indiran a lesson, Lord Krishna asked his cowherd friends to worship Gowardhana hill instead of Indira.
This brushed Indiran's Ego and he sent clouds and thunder to Govardhana hill and it was raining incessantly for 3 days and Lord Krishna lifed the huge Gowardhana Hill with his little finger and protect all the inhabitants and thus he made Indiran realised his mistake and also the divine power of Lord Krishna.

Indiran then seeked Lord Krishna's forgiveness and since then Bogi (which meand Indira) is being celebrated to honur Indira and Pongal to for all baktha's to rembember this Gowardhana story how the little krishna lifted the gaint hill by his little finger

Mattu pongal has an association with cattle a especially Lord Shiva's mount Nandhi

The celebrations of the festival are similar to the festivals of Raksha Bandhan where sisters pray for their brothers' well being

Grand-Festival DEEPAVALI... MOST IMPORTANT... for Indians.!...

... by Indian-Heritage.! Why.? HOW.?

Yes. Out of all the Festivals and Celebrations of Indians... Deepavali irrespective of the Regions, Profession and Status... deepavali is the Most important and....

.... INDISPENSABLE.... HOLY CELEBRATION.... Why.?

As already said...

(1) Deepavali is the One day in a Year... we celebrate with a LOUD UNDERTONE... of Self-Realisation... on Realities of Life...

...Darkness and Brightness ..or Day and Night are parts of our Life...

..whether One likes and relishes or not.

So is our positive and Negative experiences, circumstances. Hence let us learnto live with it...

(2) There are only... Two Options in Life.,,, Either CURE or ENDURE.... with Disorders if any... around you.

...Share and Exchange your Pleasures and Knowledge... during every moment of your Life-time.

Festivals and Social-celebrations like Deepavali are the best Opportunities and Occasions to EXCEL in the degree of Human-values

(3) Life itself... is an affair of MUTUAL-DEPENDANCE. .So Indian-Heritage subtly reminds the Huanity...

..Look, my dear Man... YOU ARE NOT ALONE... There is your Family of Wife, Children and Parents.... You are mutually dependant... by Give and Take.

..Similarly... there is One People's Society of your Street... a part of your Town... which forms part of your District... which further forms part of your Nation.. whivch ultimately forms part of the Global Society.

So my Dear Man... LEARN TO LIVE WITH ALL... of different Hues and Voices.

..Learn to FORGIVE AND FORGET.... by means of EMPATHY and Reality.

..Learn to pick up the useful ONE Grain ... amongst the MASS of Rubbish... you find in others...

..like the Hen do.... and share with its chicken.

(4) Life means HOPE... HOPE leads to AUTO SUGGESTION...

..AUTO-SUGGESTION... leads towards PERSEVERENCE and TOLERANCE.

...which ultimately leads to GROUP- SUCCESS and COLLECTIVE ADVANCEMENT of all.

More than the Spirit of Family, Nation and the Society...FOR ME..!!.
.
..For my Family, Nation and the Society.... I AM.... !!!
