  • Hinduism 101: the Basics
    Hinduism 101: The Basics Where Does Hinduism Come From? Hinduism, a collection of traditions, is one of few ancient religions to survive into modern times. It developed at least over 5000 years ago in the Indus Valley of India, the largest civilization in the ancient world. Hindus consider the Hindu tradition as having no identifiable beginning or end, and refer to it as Sanatana Dharma ​ or the Eternal Way. The Vedas, one of Hinduism’s primary religious texts, means ​ ​ “knowledge” in the Sanskrit language and were preserved through a rigorous oral tradition for thousands of years before being written down. They present key Hindu teachings through hymns on the divine forces of nature. Hindu philosophy was further developed in the Upanishads; restated in story form in the ​ ​ Puranas, the Ramayana, and the Mahabharata; and through countless life stories, devotional poetry, ​ ​ ​ ​ and commentaries by learned sages. Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism are often referred to as the “Dharma traditions” or “Indic traditions.” The Dharma traditions share many concepts such as dharma, karma, samsara, and moksha (see later), though each religion ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ understands and interprets them differently. Over many centuries, Hinduism's pluralistic ethos was reflected through India's embrace of other religious groups such as Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians when they were persecuted elsewhere. What are basic Hindu teachings? The deepest spiritual truth gleaned through the Vedas is that Brahman, or ​ ​ the Absolute (used interchangeably with “the Divine”, “the Absolute,” and “God”) pervades the entire universe. This divine reality or its essential nature is present in all living ​ ​ ​ beings, eternal, and full of bliss.

  • Temples Within Chennai City
    Temples within Chennai City 1 As the famous Tamil poetess AUVAYYAR says in Her Legendary presentation of cluster of hymns “Kovil illatha ooril kudi irukkathe” Please don’t reside in a place where there is no temple. The Statement of our forefathers is sacrosanct because the temple indicates that the community is graced by the presence of God and that its Citizens form a moral community. A Community identifies and is identified by others with its temples. It has been our ancient endavour to lead a pious life with full dedication to the services of the Lord. Sri Paramacharya of Kanchi Mutt has repeatedly called devotees and stressed the importance of taking care of old temples - which requires enormous power of men and money - instead of constructing new temples in cities. As you may be aware, there are thousands of temples in dilapidated condition and requires constant maintenance work to be undertaken. There are many shiva lingas of ancient temples found under trees and also while digging. In ancient times, these lingas were 'Moolavars' of temples built by several kings. After conquests and devastations by foreign invaders, Indian temples were destructed and the sacred deities were thrown away and many were broken. The left out deities are found later. Of them, some are unidentified. Those who attempt to construct temples for gods are freed from the sins of a thousand births. Those who think of building a temple in their minds are freed from the sins of a hundred births. Those who contribute to the cause of a temple are bestowed with divine virtues and blessings.
