  • May I Answer That?
    MAY I ANSWER THAT? By SRI SWAMI SIVANANDA SERVE, LOVE, GIVE, PURIFY, MEDITATE, REALIZE Sri Swami Sivananda So Says Founder of Sri Swami Sivananda The Divine Life Society A DIVINE LIFE SOCIETY PUBLICATION First Edition: 1992 Second Edition: 1994 (4,000 copies) World Wide Web (WWW) Reprint : 1997 WWW site: http://www.rsl.ukans.edu/~pkanagar/divine/ This WWW reprint is for free distribution © The Divine Life Trust Society ISBN 81-7502-104-1 Published By THE DIVINE LIFE SOCIETY P.O. SHIVANANDANAGAR—249 192 Distt. Tehri-Garhwal, Uttar Pradesh, Himalayas, India. Publishers’ Note This book is a compilation from the various published works of the holy Master Sri Swami Sivananda, including some of his earliest works extending as far back as the late thirties. The questions and answers in the pages that follow deal with some of the commonest, but most vital, doubts raised by practising spiritual aspirants. What invests these answers and explanations with great value is the authority, not only of the sage’s intuition, but also of his personal experience. Swami Sivananda was a sage whose first concern, even first love, shall we say, was the spiritual seeker, the Yoga student. Sivananda lived to serve them; and this priceless volume is the outcome of that Seva Bhav of the great Master. We do hope that the aspirant world will benefit considerably from a careful perusal of the pages that follow and derive rare guidance and inspiration in their struggle for spiritual perfection. May the holy Master’s divine blessings be upon all. SHIVANANDANAGAR, JANUARY 1, 1993.

With the thrust of Issue: 1 disability right movements and development in eld of disability studies, the mythical past of dis- ability is worthy to study. Classic Indian Scriptures mention differently able character in prominent positions. There is a faulty opinion about Indian mythology is that they associate disability chie y Month: July with evil characters. Hunch backed Manthara from Ramayana and limping legged Shakuni from Mahabharata are negatively stereotyped characters. This paper tries to analyze that these charac- ters were guided by their motives of revenge, loyalty and acted more as dramatic devices to bring Year: 2019 crucial changes in plot. The deities of lord Jagannath in Puri is worshipped , without limbs, neck and eye lids which ISSN: 2321-788X strengthens the notion that disability is an occasional but all binding phenomena in human civiliza- tion. The social model of disability brings forward the idea that the only disability is a bad attitude for the disabled as well as the society. In spite of his abilities Dhritrashtra did face discrimination Received: 31.05.2019 because of his blindness. The presence of characters like sage Ashtavakra and Vamanavtar of Lord Vishnu indicate that by efforts, bodily limitations can be transcended.

  • Selected Gems from Ashtavakra Gita
    INTRODUCTION It is true that the author had written long earlier two other books on ‘Ashtavakra Gita’, a unique practical text on Advaita philosophy - ‘The Quantum Leap into the Absolute’ (a summary of the text) and ‘Instant Self - Realisation’- both of which are available in the website. The author somehow felt that he had not done full justice to that text and his mind was not satisfied. When everyone of the nearly 300 verses of ‘Ashtavakra Gita’ is a gem of “purest ray serene”, selecting a few gems out of them and presenting them with a detailed commentary has not been an easy task. As many people have dubbed him, Ashtavakra was not a revolutionary who blazed a new trail. What all he has told in Ashtavakra Gita are also to be found in Bhagavad Gita as also a number of Upanishads like Annapurnopanishad, Adhyatmopanishad, Varahopanishad, Avadhootopanishad, Sanyasopanishad, Kaivalyopanishad, Atmaprabodopanishad, Sarvasaropanishad, Niralambopanishad, Tejobindoopanishad, Kathopanishad, 2 Selected Gems from Ashtavakra Gita Brahmabindoopanishad, Mahopanishad, Yogasikha Upanishad, Muktikopanishad, Kenopanishad and Adisankara’s Prakarana texts like Viveka Choodamani and Aparokshanubhooti. Ashtavakra puts them all in a telling way, just like a whip-lash. His language is lucid and simple. Some of the slokas are like catch-words in the burden of the song in folk-lore music. For instance his expressions like ^^fo’olk{kh lq[kh Hko** (I-5), ^^u Hk;a rL; dq=fpr~** (IV-6), ^^u â";fr u dqI;fr** (VIII-2), ^^ohrr`".k% lq[kh Hko** (X-3), ^^u^^u^^u fpUrk eqDr;s ee** (XIV-3), ^^fujis{k% lq[ka pj** (XV-4), ^^u rs o`f)uZ ok {kfr%** (XV-11), ^^fu%ladYi% lq[kh Hko** (XV-15), ^^fdeH;L;fr ckyor~**] ^^;nk ukga rnk eks{kks** (VIII-4), ^^ukga nsgks u es nsgks** (XI-6), ^^R;tSo /;kua loZ=** (XV-20) and ^^fpÙka eqDrL; jktrs** (XVII-30) are beautiful and easy to remember.

  • Gautama One of the Saptarishis, Gautama Maharishi Was an Ancient Rigvedic Sage, Who Also Finds Mention in Buddhism and Jainism
    Newsletter Archives www.dollsofindia.com Ancient Rishis of India - Part 1 Copyright © 2019, DollsofIndia India is a highly spiritual land, which houses several Rishis, mendicants and Godmen. Hindu mythology prominently features Rishis, their wives and their families in several stories. In fact, many of these Rishis actually played the role of catalysts, helping Devas, Asuras, divine beings and earthlings release their karma, thus bringing good, joy and peace back into their lives. Even today, we can find rishis meditating in the secret crevices of the Himalayas and some hidden caves of the Gangotri and Yamunotri. These sages have chosen to move away from the maddening crowd of civilization and moved to those remote areas in order to attain ultimate peace, mukti and, finally, moksha or liberation, during this lifetime. In this month's article, we bring you a feature on some of the most ancient Rishis of India. While most of them are males, there are a few female yoginis and sages who are equally, if not more powerful. There are several hundreds of rishis that we can talk about. In this two-part series, we bring you the stories of some of the most important and most ancient sages of this land. Agastya Agastya was a much-revered Vedic sage, who was famous for his reclusive nature. He was a great scholar and was knowledgeable in multiple languages. He and his wife, Lopamudra, are the celebrated authors of hymns in the Rigveda and other Vedic literature. He is also venerated in Puranic literature of Shaktism and Vaishnavism. Agastya prominently features in several ancient Hindu scriptures and tales, such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata.

  • My Ancestors
    2 MY ANCESTORS Unrecorded, unrenown’d, Men from whom my ways begin, Here I know you by your ground But I know you not within - There is silence, there survives Not a moment of your lives. Edmund Blunden, ‘Forefathers’ I Sir W.S. Gilbert (1836-1911) said: “I can trace my ancestry back to a proto- plasmal primordial atomic globule. Consequently, my family pride is something inconceivable”. I trace my ancestry not out of desire to assert my family pride, but in order to discover my own identity. I had read the insightful comments by Daniel Webster: ‘Next to the sense of religious duty and moral feeling, I hardly know what should bear with stronger obligation on a liberal and enlight- ened mind, than a consciousness of an alliance with excellence which is departed; and a consciousness, too that in its acts and conduct, and even in its sentiments and thoughts, it may be actively operating on the happiness of those that come after it.’ I knew that Sri Kirtinath Jha (popularly known as Kirtu Babu ‘Panjikara’) of Koilakh had a rich library of old records of the important families of Mithila. He was a genealogist of great eminence. He assisted me to draw up my detailed genealogy, an abstract wherefrom is appended at the end of this Chapter. I could gather from him detailed information pertaining to the system ofpanjis (registers) maintained so meticulously by the panjikars (the recorders of the family history) I must record my gratefulness for Maharaja Harisimhadeva who “ordered detailed genealogies to be scientifically recorded for the first time on panjis (registers) in c.
