  • An Innovative Model to Predict Earthquakes in Indian Peninsula Y
    British Journal of Earth Sciences Research Vol.3, No.1, pp.42-62, September 2015 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) AN INNOVATIVE MODEL TO PREDICT EARTHQUAKES IN INDIAN PENINSULA Y. V. Subba Rao Visiting Professor, Department of Jyotish Rashtriya Sanskrit University, Tirupati, A.P., India ABSTRACT: Can earthquakes be predicted? So far, the answer is no. Scientists are unlikely to be ever able to predict earthquakes with any amount of certainty, according to the United States Geological Survey Apr 25, 2013. An Innovative Model for Earthquake Prediction (IMEP) proposed in this paper is a combination of Vedic Astrology (Vedānga), Varāha Mihira’s Brihat Samhita and scientific data of magnetic variations, structural geology such as fault zones, tectonic plates’ directions, loose soil areas of all the earthquakes occurred in Indian Peninsula shield over a period of 200 years. In the course of preparation of this paper, it is observed that the earthquakes occured at regular intervals of about 11 years and mostly during bright fortnight due to extraordinary astronomical phenomena occurring in the planets and special movements of the heavenly bodies. Vedānga and Brihat Samhita state that earthquakes are caused by eclipses of the luminaries. It is, therefore, plausible to predict earthquakes in a specific locality within a specific time limit utilising this model. However, as an initial step, the present model has been designed for application for India. The next earthquake in Indian peninsula is predicted to occur on Wednesday, the 16th March, 2016 on the basis of the proposed hypothesis model.

  • Guide to 275 SIVA STHALAMS Glorified by Thevaram Hymns (Pathigams) of Nayanmars
    Guide to 275 SIVA STHALAMS Glorified by Thevaram Hymns (Pathigams) of Nayanmars -****- by Tamarapu Sampath Kumaran About the Author: Mr T Sampath Kumaran is a freelance writer. He regularly contributes articles on Management, Business, Ancient Temples and Temple Architecture to many leading Dailies and Magazines. His articles for the young is very popular in “The Young World section” of THE HINDU. He was associated in the production of two Documentary films on Nava Tirupathi Temples, and Tirukkurungudi Temple in Tamilnadu. His book on “The Path of Ramanuja”, and “The Guide to 108 Divya Desams” in book form on the CD, has been well received in the religious circle. Preface: Tirth Yatras or pilgrimages have been an integral part of Hinduism. Pilgrimages are considered quite important by the ritualistic followers of Sanathana dharma. There are a few centers of sacredness, which are held at high esteem by the ardent devotees who dream to travel and worship God in these holy places. All these holy sites have some mythological significance attached to them. When people go to a temple, they say they go for Darsan – of the image of the presiding deity. The pinnacle act of Hindu worship is to stand in the presence of the deity and to look upon the image so as to see and be seen by the deity and to gain the blessings. There are thousands of Siva sthalams- pilgrimage sites - renowned for their divine images. And it is for the Darsan of these divine images as well the pilgrimage places themselves - which are believed to be the natural places where Gods have dwelled - the pilgrimage is made.

  • Samskruti Newsletter Dec 2016
    December Dec 2016 Calendar Refining Young Minds 19th-25th Deiva Tamizh Isai Vizha SAMSKRUTI 24th Madhurageetham Festival Audition Round Our Master’s Voice For more info visit Dr A Bhagyanathan www.namadwaar.org MENTAL STRENGTH ..contd Recent researchers say that even when the baby is in the mother's womb, it listens to what's going on. That's why the What’s Inside mother is advised to listen to fine music. This is not something that wasn't known to our ancestors because when Baktha Prahlad was in his mother's womb, that was when he received the Nama, the upadesha from his Guru Chaitanya and he started at that point itself. It's something that was Mahaprabhu 3 established in our puranas from time immemorial, which has been scientifically proven today too. So, the knowledge gain starts from that point and from the moment the baby is Ramayana… born it continues. The baby learns from everything it sees 4 and hears and interacts with. It is a continuous learning As I See It process. And then, it learns it's first words- the alphabet, the parents, the mother, the father- they teach the baby and then he's put into school, kindergarten. Then he goes Padaleeshwarar through primary school. Then he finishes high school, at Temple 5 which point he decides his choice, his career path. And then, he goes into university - the learning continues. Intellectual strengthening continues. It's a continuous process from day As It 1, it keeps happening at different levels. Then he lands 6 himself a nice job.

  • Vaikuntha Ekadasi
    Hindu Temple and Cultural Society of USA Inc. Sri Venkateswara Temple (Balaji Mandir) and Community Center 780 Old Farm Road, Bridgewater, New Jersey 08807 (908)725-4477 http://www.venkateswara.org/ Vaikuntha Ekadasi: Ekadasi in Sanskrit means eleven. Ekadasi is the eleventh day of the fifteen-days of the bright half (Sukla Paksha) and is also the eleventh day of the dark half (Krishna Paksha) of the lunar month. In the Sukla Paksha the moon grows from new moon to full moon and in the following half it diminishes from full moon to new moon. Ekadasi day is auspicious to Lord Vishnu. The Ekadasi day that falls during the Sukla Paksha of Dhanurmasa/Margahi (December middle to January middle) is very special. On this day, it is believed, that the gates of Vaikuntha are ceremoniously open for devotees to enter. This day is celebrated as Vaikuntha (Abode of The Lord Sriman Narayana) Ekadasai in all the Vaishnava Temples. Stories from Puranas say that Lord Krishna discussed the special significance of Vaikuntha Ekadasi in one of His conversations with Yudhishthira. The Lord says that there is no better fasting day than the Ekadasai of the light fortnight of the Margazhi (Dhanurmasa) month. Who so ever is able to strictly observe this sacred Ekadasai, with worship, meditation, and fasting achieves complete liberation from the cycle of life and death. In some Vaishnava Temples, they have Vaikuntha Dwaram (special doors that are symbolic of the doors to Vaikuntha) and are kept open on Vaikuntha Ekadasai day. Pilgrims pass through this gate on this auspicious day.

  • One and Three Bhairavas: the Hypocrisy of Iconographic Mediation Gregory Price Grieve
    Revista de Estudos da Religião Nº 4 / 2005 / pp. 63-79 ISSN 1677-1222 One and Three Bhairavas: The Hypocrisy of Iconographic Mediation Gregory Price Grieve The artist-as-anthropologist, as a student of culture, has as his job to articulate a model of art, the purpose of which is to understand culture by making its implicit nature explicit. [T]his is not simply circular because the agents are continually interacting and socio-historically located. It is a non-static, in-the-world model. Joseph Kosuth1, “The Artist as Anthropologist” (1991[1975]) Iconography is a hypocritical term. On the face of it, “iconography” simply denotes the critical study of images (Panofsky 1939; 1955). Yet, one must readily admit that iconography stems from the fear of images (Mitchell 1987). In fact, iconography can be defined as a strategy for writing over images. But why fear images? Iconography’s zealotry—from idols made in the likeness of God to fetishes made in the image of capital—stems from the terror of the material. Accordingly, to proceed in an analysis of iconography, one must make explicit what most religious discursive systems must by necessity leave implict religion is never just “spirit.” Whether iconophobia or iconophilia, whether iconoclastic or idolatry, what all religions have in common is that they rely on matter for their dissemination. Even speech, the most reified communication, relies on air and the physicality of the human body. Accordingly, to write about, rather than write over, religious images, we need to return to the material. Stop and take a look at the god-image of Bhairava, a fierce form of Shiva from the Nepalese city of Bhaktapur2.
