Pranam
There is nothing wrong in writing repetitively about Kasi, Gaya,
Shraddham, Sandyavandam, Bhagavathi etc; as the guru so the sishya; however
if it is written in a group of youth , there would be some rejuvenations;
but all the members are around 80 and above. That too all are brahmins. So
many samskaras they would have performed. I doubt whether they had no, not
even the border knowledge of what they were doing?. Similarly, what is the
use of learning about the washing machines and air conditioners, at this
age, where they do not use them a lot or must learn to preserve them? All
those are the burden of the bread winner today. Members are all warriors
who may remain mnon-chalant or withdraw their forces and so all the western
home maintenance and internal machineries and the samskaras of little use,
in my opinion are VYARTHAM. Even if it is the latest facts , well , it is
another spectrum, but as exited once in 2012 when the CAT-AUTHORS WROTE as
COPIED FROM 2008 AND BEFORE have vrtually do not restore the MODERN
CONCEPTS, which I may have to fulfil. The brave soldiers of the groups to
the extent of 27 members who tolerated when the sound of Music of
Narayanasamy rendered the columns asunder, went off, stating that ,it is
becoming rotten, after my vajrayudham; it shows that people who wear a
clandestined robes , enjoying the "kula dharma", are naturally offended
when the Kula is being shot back; right?. 70 years are spent on nothing
and the the getaway is around the corner; yet the parochialism prevails out
of fear, hatred, shinkling bitterness, trickling assumed hurts, trying to
put off - the good -off the rails, "who is this to tell all these'' , etc.
The article of Paramananda speech PDF extract speaks from our literature
long ago, which benefits our members , in all respects. One may not be
able to read all; hence the authentic version is fed (where the PDF
through the Fonts in other languages shall vary-but it does not matter as
one who does not know or does skip have nothing to worry; one who is going
to refer further, will know the reason why it is like that; only jokers
will spring up and try to jibe at others as a priyappetta couple do
always) only to show our literatures have all these; even the entirety is
not given; it cannot be shorter than because, many versions , in spite of
this length, still, may not throw the right meaning. The VEDA-DHARMA is
universal; it means it applies to all the 4 varnas of the earth THEN AND
NOW AND FOR THE FUTURE; when good people die so early, when all other
species have shorter span of life, why would only humans have a long
years?; we spend a lot of time ON NOTHING; we spend time in abusing others;
envying others; why my expressions is not superior comparison jitteries';
refusing to accept any one in the ring but calling a hero an unknown ,
shady figure as the greatest; naming the cene star as beautiful, forgetting
the mother beauty, wife beauty, daughters and in laws beauty at home. THAT
IS GUNA KARMA VIBHAGA:; Karma; to realise and overcome those obstacles, so
many years we live ; so many janmas we are reborn; if we did not understand
what we were using at 20 year old, what is the use of learning them now?
There are many ways of expression. Direct hitting is one which is
corroborative to many as it is said that it hurts; but in that there is no
hypocrisy. It reflected the genuine urge to wipe the vessel so bright. But
all of such are not relished. On the contrary, where there are continuous
clappings, it is MISUNDERSTOOD as greatness, whereas, they were indirect
messages ,of corrections, told hypocritically; that is diplomacy. We fail
to understand all of them. Also we express negatively as a woman jibes at
men; hitting below the belt , with useless comments. Unconnected brats,
wary personal attacks, trying to distort the real qualifications, sentences
framed actually meaning "why these guys and oops from such scraps etc. DO
THOSE 80S ARE NOT AWARE OF THESE?. THEY DO; BUT THE TERSE PERVERSE BELOW
THE NECK IS TOO HARSH TO DIGEST. !!! Samskaras are habits we practice
according to our needs and abilities. Whether you do Pumsavana seemantham
or not, the baby will be delivered as destined. Whether one does SANDHYA
VANDANAM or not, the sun will rise and disappear from our vision. Whether
one did the srardham or not , all the souls will reach the destinations
unknown and will be reborn according to the karma only; so also the naraka,
swarga and the mukthi; by Karma; by your doing for money and plantain and
the rice, or Ganga water or Gaya, no dead soul karma can be changed by us.
WE DO ONLY FOR OUR RAISE. ALL ACTS PERFORMED ARE COMING UNDER THE SIX GUNAS
HUMAN POSSESS. THAT GUNA REFLECTIONS HAVE MANY RAMIFICATIONS ALL OVER THE
EARTH IN DIFFERENT WORDS, IN DIFFERENT COSTUMES, AND IN DIFFERENT
SCRIPTURES. What Gopalakrishnan does is only for him and not for his
ancestors or blood relations and outsiders. The idea of vadhyars visiting
the homes to perform the individual samskaras were 2000 year old when
earning money through vedas were discovered; hence only the degradations
started setting in; if samskaras are so pure for the welfare of the dead,
it would have been universal functions with Mantras recited by the VEDAS
separately; the mantras are extracted from the different meaning veda words
, compioled as G does, and some profession was constituted; hence only
there are so many systems; it is good undoubtedly; but each individual
shall ash ghis vadhyar why; many vadhyars eat in the morning in a hotel and
come and do sradham; the learnt does not know the papam?; because Punya and
papam are SIMPLE FORMULA; WHAT GOD LIKES PUNYA; WHAT GOD DOES NOT IS PAPAM.
THAT IS ALL. ULAGAM PAZHITHADHU OZHITHUVIDIN. IT IS NOT DENIAL OR
NASTHIKAM. HOW TO USE TOOTH PASTE IS ONE LESSON ONLY -NOT
REPETITIVE INSTRUCTIONS AS WHEN THE MOUTH STINK, HE HIMSELF WILL CLEAN.
EXCEPT INDIA AND THAT TOO HARDLY 2% OR LESSER THAN ALONE DOES THE SANDHYA
VANDANAM, THAT TOO IN DIFFERENT STYLES AND PRONOUNCED MNTHRAS; IF SO ONLY
THAT MINORITY IS SUFFERING; MAJORITY WHO DOES NOT DO THAT ARE LIVING
HAPPILY. HOWEVER ALL THOSE 98% HAVE THEIR OWN, SABBATH, MEMORIAL DAY ETC
ETC. The ancestral knowledge is universal way of life -which means ,
whatever is practiced , uniformly, other than the rituals and the customs,
AS HUMAN BEHAVIOUR -is that path of righteousness. SO LETS ADVANCE AS THE
TIME IS TOO SHORT. KR IRs 1622
