I am sure some rules that was applicable during those times dont actually appeal during this time. Its time people start taking the right thing outa scripture. I mean look- there are a lot of Qs in the mind against the practices etc. but the reality is far beyond it. Like you said in Utsav. Its spirituality has to be given priority over Religion(.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5750410226337473169.post-43095023044050104032008-06-14T16:25:00.000+05:302008-06-14T16:25:00.000+05:30bau,so the women during periods must go temples to...bau,<BR/>so the women during periods must go temples to get more energy.isn't it? <BR/>jaigurudev.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5750410226337473169.post-40979054710754913472008-06-14T07:43:00.000+05:302008-06-14T07:43:00.000+05:30Suparna, this was the reason given by Guruji Himse...Suparna, this was the reason given by Guruji Himself during one of the Navaratri Poojas, and something a lot of women on the ashram experienced if they had their periods and even went near the Pooja Mandap... <BR/>When they kept a good distance they felt great... if they went nearer, they felt "upset"...<BR/>Unfortunately temples these days simply don't produce that kind of vibrations... For that you need to come to the Bangalore Ashram on Monday Mornings or during Navaratri...Do think about this one a bit more and you will see that what Guruji said about it <BR/>makes complete sense...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13425440724261079085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5750410226337473169.post-4618307657624908902008-06-13T22:46:00.000+05:302008-06-13T22:46:00.000+05:30Aw C'mon!!

And who says, men who come to temples are feeling positive all the time??(most often its the opposite!)I somehow thought that the reason was that women felt (or were made to feel) "impure" during those days. But purity is as much in the mind, as it is in the body...And if we were to analyze the minds, I'm sure only a few people would be allowed to enter the temple door:))Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5750410226337473169.post-32920671636793510392008-06-13T19:52:00.000+05:302008-06-13T19:52:00.000+05:30Jauhar, sati... whatever, my comments still hold.....Jauhar, sati... whatever, my comments still hold... and putting sati's story like that outof context doesnt make any sense at all... its a very beautiful story in the full context of the Shiva PuranaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13425440724261079085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5750410226337473169.post-12198720711622774132008-06-13T15:27:00.000+05:302008-06-13T15:27:00.000+05:30bawa!! goes unsaid that the answers are brilliant!...bawa!! goes unsaid that the answers are brilliant!! :D<BR/><BR/>though i don't understand, why do some people just lose their self control that easily??<BR/><BR/>and also..how do both of you manage to look so cute?? :)<BR/><BR/>-SwatiWandering Minstrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09264590605227813902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5750410226337473169.post-75266647365827951842008-06-13T15:09:00.000+05:302008-06-13T15:09:00.000+05:30The term described by you as Sati, is actually Jau...The term described by you as Sati, is actually Jauhar.<BR/><BR/>Jauhar was originally the voluntary death on a funeral pyre of the queens and royal womenfolk of defeated Rajput castes. The term is extended to describe the occasional practice of mass suicide carried out in medieval times by Rajput women and men. <BR/><BR/>Satī is a funeral practice among some Hindu communities in which a recently-widowed woman would immolate herself on her husband’s funeral pyre. The term is derived from the original name of the goddess Sati also known as Dakshayani, who immolated herself, unable to bear her father Daksha's humiliation of her (living) husband Shiva.Hemanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16693170794749533566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5750410226337473169.post-88570000746243824142008-06-13T13:03:00.000+05:302008-06-13T13:03:00.000+05:30LOL!!!

I feel that <I>Ravana</I> was not a "villain"... He was an <I><B>Anti-Hero</I></B>... <I><B>"Opposite-values-are-complimentary"</I></B>.. If it hadn't been for him, we would have known <B><I>The Ramayana</I></B> as follows:<BR/>"<I>Rama</I> was the Son of King <I>Dasharatha</I>. He fell in love with <I>Sita</I>, the daughter of King <I>Janaka</I>. They both married.. Went for a <I>Vanavaasa</I>(Read <I>"Jungle-Honeymoon"</I>;D), came back... And they lived-happily-ever-after..." :D<BR/>There would have been NO DRAMA in the story..!!!! All the <I>Ramayana</I> movies and soaps would been utter flop shows!! By providing this simple twist, <I>Sri Rama</I> has provided "indirect-employment" to his <I>bhaktas</I> thousands of years after the episode..!!! :D<BR/><BR/>Good to see you using HTML tags in your postings! Must be saving lazy donkeys like me a lot of copy-paste effort! Hehehehehe!!! ;-)Mrigankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12368667014207485933noreply@blogger.com
