Cow Sacrifice - The misinterpretation of Pasumedham.

Cow Sacrifice in Hinduism was the result of misinterpretation of the Vedic Texts by westerners.Not sure this misinterpretation was done willfully or not but has caused great damage to the community by entering into academic curriculum also.Pasu was translated as cow by westerners and same meaning was carried forward by others but Pasu has several other meanings.Other meanings of Pasu are Jeevan,Kundalini,jnanam,ajnanam,Meaning suitable to the context has to be taken.For eg Pasupathinathan is not a bulls owner but pathi of all Jeevas which is Lord Shiva.Tantra Text Rudra yamalam 26th Chapter Uttarakhandam has given the meaning of Pasu.

പുണ്യാപുണ്യപശൂൻ ഹത്വാ
ജ്ഞാനഖഡ്ഗേന യോഗവിത്‌

Punnyapunnyapasoon Hathwa
Jnanaghadgaena Yogavith

Here Pasu stands for the 2 egos.One which is endowed with punnyam and the other with apunyam.One which is formed out of ignorance thinking that one is a sinner and the other one being the arrogance in assuming that one is pious. Both this ignorance should be destroyed with the sword of knowledge.This has to be done by a Yogi or enlightened person.Here what is to be sacrificed is one's own ignorance and not innocent animals.The principle of Self which needs apt attention has been downgraded to killing of animals.This has led to the tarnishing of the principle of universality in Hinduism.

Significance of 28th Day Thread Ceremony for Newborns.

It is a common custom followed to tie a black or black and yellow thread around the the waist of a Newborn at the 28th day.Initially this custom was followed exactly at the 28th day after the child was born.Now since people are pre-occupied with work this ceremony is conducted on a Holiday and extends to 29th or 30th day.Majority of the people do not know the significance of this ceremony why it has to be on the 28th day. There are 28 stars associated with our system starting with Aswathy,Bharani and going up-to Abhijith (28th Star.2.5 Nazhika). Normally Astrologers take only 27 stars into consideration because Abhijith has a short time duration when compared to other stars.But Abhijith is strong during the period when it is present.28 days constitute a Chandra Masa(Moon Month). In 28 days these stars will come face to face with the Moon one by one.The rays from the star will get mixed with the rays of the Moon and Somam( A subtle matter in the form of liquid ) whi

Scientific Analysis of Sree Chakra

Modern science has come up with a deeper meaning in Sree Chakra which is considered symbolic in Tantra Sasthra. Experiments show that when the Mula Mantram of Sree Lalithambika Devi is recited correctly ,Sree Durga Devi's form with four hands, is formed in the atmosphere. ഓം ഹ്രീം ലളിതാംബികായൈ നമ: ക എ ഇ ല ഹ്രീം ഹ സ ക ഹ ല ഹ്രീം സ ക ല ഹ്രീം The above Sloka is the Mula Mantram of Sree Lalithambika Devi .The effect of this mantram can be analyzed using the Tonoscope .Tonoscope is an instrument which measures the frequency and tone of sound and gives a pictorial representation of the wave form. When we connect the tonoscope to a computer and recite the mula mantram of Sree Lalithambika Devi the output is the Sree Chakra. Sree Chakra is a mathematical scientific wonder and so far it has not been fully analyzed.The second part of the analysis is to pass a Laser beam through the centre of Sree Chakra and develop a Hologram which results in the image of Sree Lalithambika Devi w

Reason behind choosing Malayalam month Karkidakam as Ramayana Masam

Ramayana Masam is observed to bring out the importance of Ramayana and not of the month.Karkidakam month is often called "panja masam" (lean season).New ventures and auspicious functions(Wedding,House Warming,Vidhyarambham etc ) are not held during this month.Karkidakam marks the begining of Dakshinayanam(southern movement of the sun). Inclement weather,poverty and diseases are the highlights of this month.The effect of which is reflected in mankind and in all living beings. As per Ayurveda shastra this time is good for all health treatments such as Pizhichil ,Uzhichil etc..The change in the sun's path has significant impact on human beings also. Human body and nature are closely associated.Both bodies are made up of Panchabootham(Earth,Water,Fire,Air and Sky). Any change in Prapancha Sareeram(Nature) has a direct effect on Human body and the society.This is based on the Prana (Life Force) and the body.Phenomenon of Uttarayana and Dakshinayana based on the celesti
