ॐ ऋषीभ्यो नम: "योगक्षेमम् वहाम्यहम्" : श्री क्रृष्ण in भग्वद् गीता               Yoga (योग) means "To Unite/Union". The worldwide celebration of first International Yoga (योग) day, as declared by UNO, is on 21st June 2015. Only a couple of days away! I thought of writing brief bullet points to clear some misconceptions, misinformation and misunderstandings on so called "Yoga". I have taught 'Yogāsans' to my colleagues in Dubai. They belonged to various nationalities (Indians. Pakistanis, Germans, English, Irish, Jordanian, Egyptian, Iranian, Palestinian etc...). After interacting with them i have come to know of several misconceptions due to lack of right information. For E.g. a certain colleague was under false impression that Yoga was from Chinese culture! I did try my best to clear their doubts, which were mainly out of misinformation, whenever i got chance. Let me put it here some important points in brief for the benefit of interes...

Ashadhi Amaavasyaa is on at the moment.. I thought of giving here two "Punya-Chakra charts" of modern Himalayas of Spirituality, so that the high importance of "Navamaansha" (नवमांश -D9 Chart) is re-established in our knowledge & implementation of Jyotish shastra as a guiding "Jyoti" in darkness of future. Note: [Punya-Chakra is the chart of the moment of physical death of a being. we are normally not sure of the birth time of many celebrities and so also their inner purity and working of minds (especially in cases of highly acclaimed spiritual personalities), however, timings of physical deaths are normally accurately recorded due to their famous personalities and that can give fair idea of the development of a soul in question. In the year 2006, I had done extensive research on "Punya Chakra Charts" of many famous personalities from various fields. my comprehensive article, which was published in Jyotish Digest (Jan 2007) is also ava...

श्री रमणा महर्षी gave an extremely crucial message to all sincere & passionate spiritual seekers (मूमूक्षु) of every age. Hopefully, this small yet experiential advise from the Maharshi, who was one with the Ātman, will forever remove the dark clouds of doubts from the intelligence of modern truth seekers (Especially those who suffer misery on account of their good-desires like doing good to the world, helping suffering humanity, strong feeling of patriotism for ones own country, religion, culture, roots etc.. and on these accounts, if seekers are suffering from any feeling of guilt, anxieties and such strong attachments because they are not able to "do" any thing by their lack of apparent external Karmas due to their spiritual interest). This was revealed by Shri Sadhu Om who lived during physical life time of Maharshi. [ A good person leading a simple yet highly spiritual life and passing away unknown to the world does far more good to the world than all the pol...

While Jyeshtha Pournima (ज्येष्ठ पौर्णिमा) is on at the moment in the sky, got a trigger of providing a life altering link on this blog. It carries translation of Shri Ramana Maharshi's core message in 26 languages. Just a few pages of ultimate reading!! महर्षी रमणा always used to insist that sincere spiritual seekers read this tiny booklet. It carries the very first and the core experiential knowledge he imparted to the world and used to frequently say that his complete message is capsuled in that work. Whatever elaborations & explanations done later are only for those who had difficulties in understanding the simple truth. Lets also, with gratitude, think of invaluable contribution of those selfless seekers who translated this "final knowledge" in various languages and our heartfelt gratitude to Ramanasramam management for making it freely available to people. http://www.sriramanamaharshi.org/resource_centre/publications/who-am-i-books/ Note: I did not fi...
