Book excerpt: Lord Hanuman is one of the most widely worshiped Gods of Sanatana Dharma. Many people are seen worshipping him on Tuesday and Saturday. India is filled with perhaps the grandest temples of Hanuman in every corner. Lord Hanuman was an ardent devotee of Lord Rama and he was also a main character in the Ramayana. We know Hanuman as a ape or monkey, but he belongs to a particular species 'Kapi'. The 'Kapi' species had their faces somewhat like monkeys and had a tail like apes, but the rest of their body was the same as that of us humans. Those people were very intelligent, brave and powerful. There was also an empire of those who also had a king. They ruled in many parts of India and they were ruled in some of the more remote parts of India at that time which we know today by the name of Indonesia, Jakarta, Thailand etc. where they ran their kingdom. Over time, their species went extinct for no particular reason. Recently, a person confirmed the sighting of a group of some people of 'Kapi' species in a dense forest which numbered around 40 - 50. Lord Hanuman, who was given the boon of immortality by Lord Rama, is still alive and gives sight (Darshan) to his devotees. In part 1, we will discuss about the divine life and achievement of Lord Hanuman. Goswami Tulsidas, who is believed to be the reincarnation of Maharishi Valmiki, got sight (Darshan) of not only Hanuman but also Lord Shree Rama with the help of a phantom, and with his inspiration he composed 'Ramcharitmanas' poetry as well as 'Hanuman Chalisa' and many other poetries. In part 2 we will discuss about Tulsidas's life and achievements.The "Hanuman Chalisa" is a Hindu devotional hymn (Strotra), which addresses to Lord Hanuman. It has forty hymn lines (Chaupais) on Lord Hanuman, which has been authored by a great poet "Tulsidas" in the "Awadhi" language. But he became popular by his best known text "Ramcharitmanas". The "Hanuman Chalisa" word is derived from the word "Hanuman" as this hymn is about Lord Hanuman; and the the "Chalisa" is derived from the word "Chalis". The word "Chalis" is a hindi word which means Forty, as this hymn has forty lines ar verses (couplets are excluded). This hymn or prayer is authored in 16th Century. In part 3, we will know the meaning of Hanuman Chalisa. It is believed that if you are feeling any kind of fear or any danger or touble, then you should start reciting Hanuman Chalisa. With the grace of Lord Hanuman all your troubles and tproblems will be removed. Lord Hanuman will protect and bless you.

Download or read book The Ramayana and Other Hindu Texts written by Anita Ganeri and published by Evans Brothers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's "small wars," "imperial wars," or, as the Pentagon now terms them, "low-intensity conflicts," have played an essential but little-appreciated role in its growth as a world power. Beginning with Jefferson's expedition against the Barbary Pirates, Max Boot tells the exciting stories of our sometimes minor but often bloody landings in Samoa, the Philippines, China, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Mexico, Russia, and elsewhere. Along the way he sketches colorful portraits of little-known military heroes such as Stephen Decatur, "Fighting Fred" Funston, and Smedley Butler. From 1800 to the present day, such undeclared wars have made up the vast majority of our military engagements. Yet the military has often resisted preparing itself for small wars, preferring instead to train for big conflicts that seldom come. Boot re-examines the tragedy of Vietnam through a "small war" prism. He concludes with a devastating critique of the Powell Doctrine and a convincing argument that the armed forces must reorient themselves to better handle small-war missions, because such clashes are an inevitable result of America's far-flung imperial responsibilities.

Download or read book Being Ram Dass written by Ram Dass and published by Sounds True. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Ram Dass lived a full life and then some. His final statement is thorough and, yes, enlightening.” —Kirkus Reviews Perhaps no other teacher has sparked the fires of as many spiritual seekers in the West as Ram Dass. If you’ve ever embraced the phrase “be here now,” practiced meditation or yoga, tried psychedelics, or supported anyone in a hospice, prison, or homeless center—then the story of Ram Dass is also part of your story. From his birth in 1931 to his luminous later years, Ram Dass saw his life as just one incarnation of many. This memoir puts us in the passenger seat with the one-time Harvard psychologist and lifelong risk-taker Richard Alpert, who loved to take friends on wild rides on his Harley and test nearly every boundary—inner or outer—that came his way. Being Ram Dass shares his life’s odyssey in intimate detail: how he struggled with issues of self-identity and sexuality in his youth, pioneered psychedelic research, and opened the doorways to Eastern spiritual practices. In 1967 he trekked to India and met his guru, Neem Karoli Baba. He returned with a perspective on spirituality and psychology that changed millions. Featuring 64 pages of color photographs, this intimate memoir chronicles the cultural and spiritual transformations Ram Dass experienced that resonate with us to this day, a journey from the mind to the heart, from the ego to the soul. Before, after, and along these waypoints, readers will encounter many other adventures and revelations—each ringing with the potential to awaken the universal, loving divine that links us to this beloved teacher and all of us to each other.
