  • The Indian Wedding for Dummies Indiansamourai 27-03-2014 Http
    The Indian Wedding for Dummies The "Indian wedding" (I should say the Hindu wedding to be exact) has made the subject of numerous books, movies, visits to India. In short it’s an institution. I will try here to understand something to it! The Indian wedding for Dummies - 1. The arranged marriage Arranged marriage: and why not?! Let's make the distinction between arranged marriage and forced marriage. If I can de-dramatize arranged marriages (read below), it is impossible to do the same with forced marriages which are still widely practiced in India: 40% of women do not have a word in the choice of the husband, less than 20% of women (over 25) knew their husbands before the fateful day and worse, almost 50% of women have married before the legal age of 18 (source http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/many-women-have-no-say-in- marriage/article5801893.ece ). Which means that there are still thousands of people (Hindus) who, each year, follow the tradition and find out whom they are going spend the rest of their lives with only when they are already married: SURPRISE! As per the custom to groom arrives first, and his view is hidden with a bed sheet, which is removed once the bride is brought in by her maternal uncle and cousins and the consent of the parents exchanged. The bed sheet is simply a less sexy version (but more promising ;)) of the veil used in Catholic marriages, originally to hide the face of the bride (source http://www.le- mariage.com/traditions/ )).

  • Jagadguru Speaks: Shankara, the World Teacher
    Jagadguru Speaks Page 1 of 2 Jagadguru Speaks: Shankara, the World Teacher There are many kinds of people in the world. Their life style is formed in accordance with their own samskaras . Only the one who can show all of them the way to lead a righteous life can be called a Jagadguru . There is no doubt that Adi Sankara was such a Jagadguru . Sankara gave upadesa in jnana to those who wished to tread the path of knowledge. In his works, he has given extensive advice on jnana . For those people who could not go along the jnana marga , he taught karma yoga . His valuable advice to chant the Vedas daily and do the prescribed karmas was meant for those following the path of duty. For those who were unable to follow this advice, he prescribed the way of bhakti . As he said, such people will find it useful to recite the Gita and Vishnusahasranama and think of Hari at all times. The paths of karma , bhakti and jnana are thus conducive to man’s welfare. Adi Sankara who prescribed these various yogas for all people is indeed worshipful. The very remembrance of him is bound to bestow good to all. file://C:\journal\vol1no3\jagadguru.html 9/7/2007 Jagadguru Speaks Page 2 of 2 With absolutely no doubt in my mind, I bow to Sankara Bhagavatpada who, like Lord Siva, was always surrounded by four disciples. file://C:\journal\vol1no3\jagadguru.html 9/7/2007 From the President, SVBF Page 1 of 2 From the President, SVBF Greetings.

Rama is both worshipped and admired as a righteous king and a fully human incarnation of Lord Vishnu. During a Rama Navami Celebration, Rama's birth is celebrated and his wedding to Sita is reenacted. Families with daughters of marriageable age serve as sponsors for the divine wedding, which is also a chance to pray for the good marriage of their daughters in the future. In the Bharatiya Temple in Troy, Michigan, the Hindu community gathers for Rama Navami, the annual festival celebrating Lord Rama. Bharatiya literally means the temple of India, highlighting the fact that this a pan-Hindu temple, not dedicated to a specific deity. Modern in its design, Bharatiya set on a wooded hillside in the northern suburbs of Detroit. Four huge arching wooden trusses support the roof of the carpeted sanctuary where more than three hundred people are sitting for the “Wedding of Rama and Sita,” the divine couple who are hero and heroine of the beloved Ramayana. The images of Rama and Sita have been brought forward on the raised platform which serves as the altar of the temple. Rama is both worshipped and admired as a righteous king and a fully human incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Today Rama’s birth is celebrated and his wedding to Sita is re-enacted.
