Sanyasa does not mean hating this world and leaving home and living in forests. We can never skip any people in this world. Instead, we can live with all these people and just avoid having attachments with them. What is attachment? If the separation of anyone affects you, that means you have attachments. When you are not affected and stand as you are unoscillated even when you get a very big offer of Prize as well as you lose a very important person. Such an unoscillated mindset is called detachment. In other words, Accepting all the happenings as it is! This mindset coupled with chanting Hare Krishna will take you to Goloka. Not just chanting alone. If you sincerely chant regularly without offences, this detached mindset will automatically come. So, chant, but, sincerely without offences.

सगळ्यांनाच वास्तूशास्त्रा प्रमाणे घर घेता येणे अथवा बांधणे शक्य नाही. पण ते साधारणत: या चित्रात दिल्याप्रमाणे असावे....आणि असेही म्हंटले जाते की जगातील कोणतेही घर अगदी १००% वास्तुशास्त्राप्रमाणे असू शकत नाही.  यातील ज्या उपदिशा आहेत त्या कमी महत्वाच्या नसून खूप खूप महत्वपूर्ण आहेत. आणि त्यांच्यावर पंचमहाभूतातील तत्वांचा प्रभाव असतो....आग्नेय या दिशेवर नावाप्रमाणेच अग्नी तत्व, ईशान्येवर जलतत्व, वायव्येवर वायू तत्व आणि नैऋत्य दिशेवर भूमी तत्वाचा प्रभाव असतो....तुलनेने नैऋत्य ही जास्त संहारक परिणाम देणारी दिशा आहे.....अर्थात तिथे खोदकाम केले, बोअर, विहीर मारली तर ..... स्वयंपाकाचा अग्नीशी संबंध असल्याने अर्थातच स्वयंपाकघर आग्नेय दिशेला असणे उत्तमच, नसल्यास किमान किचन ओटा तरी आग्नेयेला असावा. Gas शेगडी आग्नेयेला तर सिंक इशान्य दिशेला हवे....घराचा मधला भाग शक्यतो मोकळा ठेवावा. देवघर ईशान्य किंवा आग्नेय दिशेला असावे. देवघरात घरातील जिवंत किंवा मृत व्यक्तींचे फोटो लावू नयेत. त्या आपल्याला प्रिय असल्या तरी त्यांच्या फोटो मधून वाईट स्पंदने येत असू शकतात आणि ती प्रगतीला, उपासना स्थळाला नक्की

The Hindu Gotra System – Male Lineage Identification The Gotra is a system which associates a person with his most ancient or root ancestor in an unbroken male lineage. For instance if a person says that he belongs to the Bharadwaja Gotra then it means that he traces back his male ancestry to the ancient Rishi (Saint or Seer) Bharadwaja. So Gotra refers to the Root Person  in a person’s male lineage. The Gotra system is practiced amongst most Hindus. See here for a  List of Hindu Gotras  practiced by different sections of the Hindu Society Brahmins identify their male lineage by considering themselves to be the descendants of the 8 great Rishis ie Saptarshis (The Seven Sacred Saints) + Bharadwaja Rishi. So the list of root Brahmin Gotras is as follows Angirasa Atri Gautam Kashyapa Bhrigu Vasistha Kutsa Bharadwaja These 8 Rishis are called  Gotrakarin  meaning  roots of Gotras . All other Brahmin Gotras evolved from one of the above Gotras. What this means is that th

Why are people in so much debt?   One simple reason why, is because we cannot control our spending. Credit cards provide us a facility to buy the goods now, with money that we don't actually have. This is fine, so long as we have control of our mind and senses, and we monitor how much we're spending. But when we start enjoying the freedom of paying by credit, and buying what we like, when we like, it can easily spiral out of control. Before you know it, you need a loan to pay off the original loan!   Lord Krsna says in the Gita: “The senses are so strong and impetuous, O Arjuna, that they forcibly carry away the mind even of a person of discrimination who is endeavoring to control them. As a strong wind sweeps away a boat on the
