Please forgive me for any kind of errors and mistakes as i am posting what i have understood from the study of vedic cosmology. Iam the most fallen soul just trying to make the people understand about vedic cosmology and the universe.
The Lord's energy is divided into mainly three aspects. They are :
(1) Sandhini ( Full manifestation of existence)
(2) Samvit ( Absolute knowledge)
(3) Hladini ( Unlimited Bliss)
Sandhini sakti is again divided into two aspects, 3/4 th in spiritual world also known as t

Silence has always been in eulogized. Krsnadasa Kaviraja Goswami, a renowned saint, has said that silence is one of the 26 qualities of a devotee of the Lord. Many people keep maun brat – on a specific day they do not speak anything. This can help one to control their tongue but what about the mind. We just do not speak through our tongue but we also speak through our minds. Our mind is a chatter box. There is not even a single moment when we can say that our mind remains calm and silent. Men

"Always speak the truth. Never tell a lie."
Once in the gurukul of Dronacharya, there was a lesson being taught on speaking truth. Guru Drona said to all Kauravas and Pandavas, "Always speak the truth. Never tell a lie." Then he started asking each student to explain what they learned. Everybody said more or less the same thing on their turn except prince Yudhisthira. But Yudhisthira said, "I am sorry respected guru!

Law of Karma and Reincarnation are the two basic elements of our Vedic Religion.According to a Person's deeds in his/her previous birth, the Person is reborn. Like a programmed machine, the Person does the actions that are planned for in this life . All the joys and sorrows in this life are according to the precise "Script". *Jivathma* is the doer and *Paramathma* ( Supersoul or Manasakshi) is the witness. If Jivathma i
"This attraction for Krsna consciousness in association with pure devotees is the sign of great fortune. It is confirmed by Lord Caitanya that the only..., only the fortunate persons, by mercy of both the bona fide spiritual master and Krsna, will get the seed of devotional service. In this connection, Lord Krsna says in the Srimad-Bhagavatam, Eleventh Canto, Twentieth Chapter, verse 8: 'My dear Uddhava, only by exceptional fortune does someone become attached, attracted to Me, Krsna.

Once a boy went to shop with his mother. The shop keeper looked at the small cute child and showed him a bottle with sweets and said 'Dear Child.. u can take the sweets... but the child did not take.
The shop keeper was surprised such a small child he is and why is he not taking the sweets from the bottle. Again he said take the sweets. Now his mother also heard that and said. ''beta take the sweets..'' yet he did not ta

Make plans to get out of the material world. The material world is going to get more and more terrible with each passing day. This is not something that is spiritual propaganda. If you follow what the materialists talk, if you follow what the scientists these days are talking, they are all talking about global warming; they are talking about the effects of global warming on the society and the predictions are that the si

Dull matter ( Jada padartha) by itself cannot create anything at all. Creation needs absolute control and guidance from the supreme source. Matter can only be destroyed by itself, with the passage or flow of time ( generally known as forward arrow of time in Thermodynamics). For instance, a building will be destroyed , but can never create another building on its own a
Anywhere there are intelligent class of men, God conscious men, they are called brahmanas. Anywhere who are prepared for the right cause, administrator, ksatriyas. Anywhere who are interested in business, trade, agriculture, they are called vaisyas. And anywhere who are simply satisfied by serving others, he's called sudra. So our principle is not to proselytize from Christian to Hindu or Muhammadan to Hindu. We are teaching simply how to revive his own constitutional position to become servant
Surrender to Krishna is a beautiful experience and the most wonderful concept in all of creation. It means to genuinely offer our love to Him. Those who are unwilling to surrender to Krishna with love have to surrender to Him at the time of death. Old age, disease and death are the weapons by which powerful time strangulates us. All great emperors of the world — Alexander, Napolean, Hitler, Aurangzeb — have been swept away into oblivion by the force of time. To the degree we consider ourselves t

"Work is worship. Manava-seva is Madhava-seva. God is everywhere and so I don't have to visit temples".
Above are some of the common thoughts that are destructive . Despite being blessed with the birth as Human, such people fail to utilize this birth . We all are under the influence of the ego-boosting *Maya* ( illusion) . Only divine grace help us to overcome *Maya*.
Vedic scriptures tell us that God resides everywhere .

"This holy place, Naimisaranya, is still existing in India, and in ancient times it was especially used for the meetings of great sages and saintly persons with the aim of understanding spiritual life and self-realization. When Lord Balarama visited that place there was a great sacrifice being performed by a great assembly of transcendentalists. Such meetings were planned to last thousands of years.

In almost every Vaishnava home a lamp is lit daily before the altar of the Lord. In some houses it is lit at dawn, in some, twice a day at dawn and dusk and in a few it is maintained continuously (akhanda deepa). All auspicious functions commence with the lighting of the lamp, which is often maintained right through the occasion.
Light symbolizes knowledge, and darkness, ignorance. The Lord is the "Knowledge Principle" (
