Download or read book Puja Prakriti written by Saumyendra Nath Brahmachary and published by Indic Publication. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acharya Saumyendra Nath Brahmachary would engage in detailed discussions during the entire 'Puja Parva' sequentially from 'Pitri-paksha' to 'Devi-paksha' and then also covering Kojagari Lakshmi Puja, Kali Puja, 'Bhratri-Dwitiya' and finally Jagaddhatri Puja in the CTVN AKD PLUS satellite cable channel. This book 'Puja Prakriti' is a humble attempt to collate and present his precious renderings on this subject. During his lifetime Acharyadev had written the explanation of the theory behind Durga Puja in his book 'Arsha Bani'. But later, he had explained the entire Puja process especially the detailed rites and rituals of Duga Puja in his own words in a lucid language that is understood by all. In this book we have tried to present his words while retaining his characteristic communication style in conversation mode as far as possible. This is part of a spiritual tradition following the lineage of the Masters ('Guru parampara'). In the first book 'Puja Tattva', the Great Master 'Paramguru' Brahmarshi Satyadev explained the theory behind the Pujas from his realized wisdom. His principal disciple Shrimat Narendranath Brahmachary came up with 'Mantra O Puja Rahasya' which became very popular and handy for worshippers. His worthy successor Shrimat Saumyendra Nath Brahmachary offered a simpler yet scientific and spiritual explanation of the procedural aspects of the Puja. Hence this book has been named as 'Puja Prakriti'. It is a collection of his lectures and discourses originally complied in Bengali by his disciple Kaberi Mukherjee along with a complete English trans-creation by Shri Sanjoy Mukherjee, also a disciple of Acharyadev, so that the words of the Acharya on Puja may reach people from other linguistic backgrounds for their understanding. We feel that this initiative will help spread his well thought out ideas and messages to a much wider section of the readership. We hope that once this book reaches your hands you will be able to prepare yourselves mentally and spiritually and feel doubly exalted and inspired in the invocation of the Mother. May the blessings of the Divine Mother be the portals in our pathway to the arena of worship – this is the ardent prayer of Her children.

Download or read book Anant Shesha The Divine Residue written by Bhoj Chander Thakur and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2022-11-12 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By writing this book, the author wishes to share his perspective on Reality, the Cosmos, Life, Birth, Death, Rebirth, Transmigration, Divinity, the Karmic cycle, Moksha, Nirvana based on knowledge gathered from experience, Hindu scriptures and customs, Vedic and Puranic stories, the institution of deities, religious rituals and practices, Science and the world at large. In this book, the author has made an effort to trace the rationale behind Hindu myths, Deities, Rituals, and Beliefs. The author draws moral courage and strength to write this book from the institution of Devi/Devta, which forms an integral part of the social fabric of Pahari culture (culture of the people living in the hills) widely spread in the Western Himalayas, especially Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. The book’s premise for the plurality of Hindu deities may, in part, be traced to this Devi/Devta culture. The author earnestly believes that the book would make interesting and informative reading, as it presents a perspective that is apparently at variance with some of the popular notions of Reality and Divinity. It is not a commentary or critique on any religious philosophy, beliefs, or scientific discoveries/theories, though reference to them has been liberally made. The author hopes that his perspective would help kindle the imagination and curiosity of the reader to explore the vast and enigmatic Reality/Cosmos at a personal level and find his/her answers to the aforesaid metaphysical matters.

Download or read book Matrudevobhava Ethical Moral and Philosophical Aspects of Obstetrics Gynaecology An Indian Perspective written by Dr. R. Anjaneyulu and published by Mind u Read Media. This book was released on 2024-03-10 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most medical books written by physicians are meant for the benefit of the medical fraternity: physicians, medical students, nurses or paramedics. This book entitled `Matrudevobhava’ extolling the mother is written by a senior obstetrician of India who has a vast experience both as a skilled clinician and as a popular post-graduate teacher for over 40 years. Through this volume he not only brings out so lucidly the scientific and technical aspects of Obstetrics and Gynaecology as a whole but also enlightens us with lot of his wit and philosophy (with appropriate quotes from Adi Sankara to Shakespeare and Sri Satya Sai Baba) on the social, moral and ethical aspects of the problem of human reproduction. To support some of his observations he cities liberally from the Upanishads the Geeta and the Bible. He makes a strong case that the mother who nourishes, labours, protects and gives her all to her child (sometimes even sacrificing herself in the process) deserves to be treated much better than what she gets in our society today. Though the exhortation ‘Matrudevobhava’ – (taken from the Taittiriya Upanishad) is to respect and treat mother as God – if only perhaps we given her right from birth, love and affection, proper nutrition, and education and the health care she needs in reproductive years and after, to a small extent we may be able to repay the enormous debt we owe her. Dr Anjaneyulu rightly warns that the line of demarcation between physiology and pathology of pregnancy and labour are not clear cut; and accidents (or even tragedies) may be due to the neglect by her family or her physician. Therefore, prenatal care and vigilance during labour is quite essential. His brief essays on sex-determination, sex-education, abortions, family planning, normal and abnormal menstruation, cancer of uterine cervix and menopause are so succinct and educative that the book will be useful both for medical personnel and the lay public. His warning to the profession and the public about the alarming rise in the caesarean section and hysterectomy rates should be heeded and reflected upon. He rightly emphasises that the obstetrician of today should take the responsibility to supervise women’s’ health in the widest sense of the term – from childhood, through adolescence to menopause. In India, over 100,000 mothers die annually due to complications of pregnancy and childbirth. Most of these deaths are preventable. When ‘Safe-Motherhood’ has become the watch-word with UN Agencies (like WHO, UNICEF) and the Government of India, this book is most timely and educative to promote the cause of women’s health in our country.
