Damar Tantra  is an ancient Sanskrit work about therapeutic system  'Shivambu' , i.e. auto urine therapy. This was expounded by Lord Shiva to the Goddess Parvati. It is asserted in  Damar Tantra  that all diseases can be cured by the regular use of one's own urine.  Shivambu  is truly regarded as ‘panacea’ as auto urine therapy is said to be effective in over 175 health conditions. Parvati ! I shall expound to you the recommended actions and rituals of Shivambu Kalpa that confer numerous benefits.

Mahavatar Babaji Temple in Chennai

Image
Locals call it "Siddhar Babaji Temple", "Siddhar Babaji Ashram" and also "Rajini Ashram" as it is frequently visited by Superstar Rajinikanth. So, ask with these names for guidance from local people. I was a bit confused about the exact location of the temple whether it is in Malaipattu or Padapai. Then, I got to know that it was near Manimangalam. So, I headed towards Manimangalam. To reach Babaji temple from Chennai, you have to reach Maimangalam. I was staying in a hotel in Kilpauk, Chennai. I took a cab from there and asked him to take me to Manimangalam. There, I inquired about Malaipattu. Malaipattu is 4km from Manimangalam. Going from Malaipattu bus stop towards the Babaji Temple, there is Kalyana Srinivasa Perumal Temple, it has a big image of Sri Anjaneyar. You may prostrate before Anjaneyar and then proceed further. You will reach the calm and vibrating abode of Babaji at Malaipattu/Padappai. Note: Carry enough eatables, fluid, fruits with...

educoin - the digital currency of learning

Imagine having a wallet, call it eduwallet, on a public ledger where your learning is recorded in multiples of  'one hour learning record' called edublock . The ledger is powered by blockchain, same technology that powers bitcoin. Then, what would be the equivalent of bitcoin in the education space? Let us call it educoin – a collection of karma i.e. individual learning experiences, where every learning-experience is a karma . The public ledger with edublocks will enable everyone to receive credit from anyone. Similar to bitcoin, this will be beyond the boundaries of institutions, schools and universities. So, the formal learning institutions will, sooner or later, embrace the technology and will need to adapt to the new emerging models. All learning will become recordable and measurable in the public domain. Educoin will radically decentralize education and make it more transparent and learner centric. As we see with bitcoin, there is no central authority, no goverment, ...

Declare India a Spiritual Democracy in the Constitution of India

Image
India is a spiritual land. Shall we declare India a spiritual democracy in the Constitution of India also besides calling it a secular country? That will help to remind our next generations of our spiritual heritage and to transfer its benefits to them and their next generations through policy making and social initiatives. Secularism is anyway a part of spirituality but may not necessarily serve growth and evolution to the extent spiritual approach can. In my opinion, spirituality will be a more proactive approach for the evolution of people as human beings. Spiritually inspired democracy will uphold Internal strength, health and happiness in citizens Human evolution with spiritual essence of various faiths Unity among people through a common conncting thread Solution to environmental problems with healthy lifestyles A social model for the world to make it a better place to live for all These are some actions that I propose to increase spiritual aw...

Make Sanskrit National Language of India

This is a petition and appeal to solicit nationwide support to make Sanskrit National Language of India. WHY? Sanskrit is the oldest, most highly evolved language in the world. Till now, unanimous support from all localities has not been achieved for any single language. Sanskrit, no doubt will be acceptable to all. Sanskrit carries with it our ancient culture and has the capability to assimilate any level of modernization and advancement. Major Indian languages are derived from Sanskrit. It should already have been accepted as National Language. Sanskrit is fundamentally strong in phonetic and grammar. Sanskrit is purely a scientific language. Every word and character has a definite reason and meaning to it for pronunciation, meaning and formation of new words. It is easy to learn Sanskrit, as most of the Indians already know the alphabets, as they are already being used in major Indian languages. ACTIONS REQUIRED: Declare Sanskrit - the National Language of India. Mak...

How to cure or prevent arthritis on your own?

You can cure arthritis on your own only if you have strong, rather very strong will power. Read further only if you are sure about it. Drink plenty of water. Practice yoga or do some gentle exercises. Change your diet. Follow Health = Nutrient/Calorie rule i.e. focus more on nutrients than calories intake.  Check your Vitamin D.  Prefer plant based diet than animal proteins. Our biological structure is suited more for plant based foods. Increase intake of fruits and vegetables. Avoid sugar, saturated fats (pizza, cheese, meat, dairy), trans fats (fast foods, fried foods), refined carbohydrates (white floor, white rice), sugar-free (Aspartame), alcohol.  Maintain proper weight. Reduce the load on your knees.  Fast once a week. Longer fasts may help more but experiment and find out what works best for you. Quit smoking (if you do). Avoid wearing high heels.

Trance: The Language for Humanity, With Love and Thanks to All Languages

Introduction Here I introduce a n underrated  new language to the world - Trance. And urge to use it officially . Many of us use English alphabets to type the words from our native language. Most popular use case is chatting and texting. So, are you not already using Trance? Consider this example - English: Hello! Hindi: नमस्ते! Trance: Namaste! Don't you feel a kind of trance when you know that everyone on the planet understands you? This is the goal of Trance. Let us standardize it. Let us use it in formal communication and bring it to main stream. Why a new name? To convey the concept. Trance derives its name from Transliteration. This is the technology behind the success of Trance. Trance makes use of both - Transliteration and Reverse-Transliteration, supported by Translation as per need. Now, you get the idea. Does Transliteration not exist already? Have you not been using it already? It has already existed for ages. You have used it from various di...
