Practical Sadhana (Relentless Repetition) Seen quite a few posts asking questions about how to rise above acquired/primitive tendencies such as lust, anger, gluttony or various other kinds of negative thoughts and habits, which are the hurdles we will need to overcome in the process of cleansing our mind and attaining Chitta Shuddhi. So sharing my 2 cents on this topic, and also what Sadhana in real life means to me, personally. Firstly, subduing these thoughts is never going to help, it will only make things worse. This is coming from someone who’s tried... 3 0 replies

How Yashoda became Sri Krishna’s mother for the second time | Vakula Devi Temple Yashoda did not meet Krishna ever since He left Mathura. However, when on her deathbed, Krishna came to meet His mother. She was happy but her only regret was that she could never see any of Krishna’s marriages. Sri Krishna understood His mother’s pain and said that her wish would be fulfilled in her next birth when He would be born as Venkateshwara and Mother Yashoda as Vakula Devi. In the Kali Yuga, Lord Vishnu appeared as Lord Venkateswara. This time too, Yashoda was His foster mother. Her name... 4 0 replies
The Lore of Kaliyuga Demon residing in the Gold Metal Almost everyone who has read or studied Mahabharata in some detail must know about the story of how the [demon Kali](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kali_(demon\)) was allowed to stay in five objects as long as the present era (Kaliyuga) persists. One of those five objects is the metal **gold**. As a student of economics, the extraordinary pricing of gold till this day remains my biggest fascination. In a country rampant with high inflation and tremendous wealth inequality, gold sells at a whopping 88,000 rupees per 10 grams even today! I'm flabbergasted to see... 1 5 replies

Mahakumbh Namskaram, I see so many posts claiming that the 2025 Kumbh is a Maha Kumbh that happens once every 144 years. However, I remember that 2013 was also advertised as Maha Kumbh, which made me wonder about the accuracy of this claim. Some news sources suggest that the Uttar Pradesh government now refers to every 12-year Kumbh as Maha Kumbh, which adds to the confusion. This made me curious—when was the last traditional Maha Kumbh (the one that truly follows the 144-year cycle) held, and when will the next... 5 6 replies
