Do you think that the energy of our planets governs our personality?

7.96 Billion people in the world, that too different qualities. Some may be positive, while others may be negative. But who thought that planets would have something to do with it? Every planet in Astrology has some quality, also known as Gunas.

The Sanskrit word Guna (Sanskrit: गुण) is translated as quality, peculiarity, attribute, or tendency.

A person's nature and character are based on the Gunas of the planets in the houses. It can affect our psychological and emotional condition.

What we eat can influence our Gunas too. The aim is to eat healthy, nutritious food, moderate Rajas food, and decrease Tamas foods.

What came first - The Ramayana or the Mahabharata?

(The dating in the article is approximate and rounded for ease of understanding.) Everything relies upon what answer you are set up to get, for the appropriate response is convoluted and buried in political issues. There are basically two sorts of answers: religious answer (myths or faith- based) or reality-based answer (facts or truth-based). Religious answer acknowledges as unadulterated truth what is transmitted in writings and by educators without basic examination; it makes individuals vociferously certain. Truth based answer is restricted by accessibility of quantifiable and irrefutable proof; it makes individuals wary and dicey. Presently the Vedic songs are written in a Sanskrit called Vedic Sanskrit while the most established Ramayana and Mahabharata writings we have are written in a Sanskrit called Classical Sanskrit. The last uses a punctuation initially archived by Panini who lived 2,500 years prior. So the most established forms of Ramayana and Mahabharata that we have...

Brahma lives in different dimension or a planet? | Brahmaloka - House of the Creator

This is how Multiverse looks, with each universe having its own creator.  This is beyond Multiverse. Brahmaloka (Sanskrit: ब्रह्मालोक) and more often Satyaloka (Sanskrit: सत्यलोक)' world of truth '. Man's knowledge is as mini as a grain of sand in this universe. The whole cosmos is centralized toward humans. Whatever is outside is inside us, and whatever is inside is also outside. Corresponding to the seven centers inside, there are seven realms of being in the whole universe. In Sanskrit they are called Bhuloka, Bhuvarloka, Svarloka, Maharloka, Janaloka, Tapoloka, Satyaloka.  I am not asking you to think about why these lokas exist. I am just asking you how to visualize these lokas. How to explain to someone new to Hinduism what a loka really is? Science is not yet developed to describe all kinds of truths that pervades this magnificent and ever mysterious universe. Asking scientific explanations for everything is like asking a toddler how to solve a differential equation....

Vaikuntha | God's land or what people say as Afterlife?

(वैकुण्ठ, Vaikuṇṭha) It is impossible to deny the fact that all our efforts will end up of no use after death. Every day running back and forth for money is everyone’s daily routine. But in the end, we are not allowed to take anything with us after death. Even with modernized technology and such a peak in the medical industry, we are not able to find a way to live for eternity or even pain-free.  Do you ever wonder if there is a world/dimension with no fear of Death and pain? A life till the end of eternity? Too good to be a true theory? Or does that sound like God’s land? The Concept In Hinduism, Param Dharma is after death place, the home of spirits and souls. While material planets are Kuntha and have people with anxiety (fear of everyday situations). That’s what differs the most in the Spiritual world, i.e., Vaikuntha. Vaikuntha also means – Vai-kuntha without fear. Vaikuntha is beyond all the other lokas (worlds), guarded by Jaya and Vijaya, guardians of Vishnu’s realm. N...
