Should porn be banned?

This is a very important question in today's life. Should porn be banned?

Alright porn does give psychological entertainment to a certain section of people. But the damage is much higher than the benefits.

1. I have read some psychological cases in a magazine where a girlfriend had to send her boyfriend to a counselor because her boyfriend became a porn addict and it was a serious issue.

2. Porn stimulates the psychology towards a sexual direction and if not controlled, it may cause crimes like rape. 

3. Because of the porn industry, many innocent people are kidnapped from their houses and are forced to enter this trade. Isn't this leading to a criminal activity? In fact in some cases the victims are forced to indulge in sex with them

4. It doesn't give any real value. Ok it might give chunks of money to the people participating in the videos. But does it require any special talent? Are you uplifting the pride of your country by these acts? You might get people who are constantly watching you. But there will be nobody to 'admire' and 'respect' you. And it's really unfortunate that people neglect real talent and give attention to such shit and fart.

5. Pornographic websites are also used by people where fake and  edited photos of innocent girls are uploaded. This can ruin her image.

After knowing so much you still feel this industry shoul survive? Well you are a better judge. That's all I needed to say.

Akbar's Encounter with Jwala Devi

There are 51 Shakti Peethas in the world dedicated to Parvati. These are the places where different body parts of Sati (previous birth of Parvati) fell. One of the is the Shakti Peetha of Jwala Devi.

Parvati residing as a flame in the Jwala Devi Temple

This is the incident of the days when India was ruled by Mughal Emperor Akbar. A resident of Nadoun village, Jawala Ji (Dhyanu Bhagat) was going to Jawala Maa Darshan with a thousand devotees. Seeing such a large party, the Emperor’s soldiers stopped them at Chandni Chowk in Delhi and brought Dyanu Bhagat and presented him to the court of Akbar.

Akbar asked, “Where are you taking so many men along?”

Dhyanu Bhagat replied with folding hands, “I am going for a darshan of Jwala Devi. These people with me are also devotees of Mother and are going on a pilgrimage.”

Akbar heard this and said, “Who is this Jwala Devi? And what will happen by visiting there?”

The devotee replied, “Jawala Devi is the creator and preserver mother of the world, she accepts prayer from the true heart of the devotees and fulfills all their wishes. Her glory is such that at her place, flames keeps on burning without any oil. We all visit her at her temple every year for darshan. ”

Akbar said, “How can i believe that your Jwala Devi is so powerful? After all you are a devotee of that mother, if you show any miracle then we will also accept it.”

Dhyanu Bhagat answered very calmly. "Sir! I am a small servant of the mother, what miracles can I show?"

Akbar said, “If your devotion is true, then Goddess Jwala will definitely preserve your honour. If she does not take care of devotees like you, then what is the use of worshiping her? Either she is not worth a Goddess or your devotion is a falsehood. For the test we cut the neck of your horse, you will be able to get him alive by praying to your Goddess. ”

Thus the neck of the horse was cut. Dhyanu Bhagat requested for the protection of the horse and the head of the horse for a period of one month by not giving any remedy. Then Akbar accepted the Dhyanu Bhagat Request and also permitted him for traveling.

After leaving from there, Dhyanu Bhagat along with other devotees reached and gathered in the Jwala Devi Temple. After bathing, Devotees worshiped the Goddess throughout the night by singing bhajans, reciting aarti. Next day morning, Dhyanu said, “O Maa! You are an antaryami. The King is testing my devotion, Please keep my honour. Please give life to my horse with your miracle. If you do not accept my prayer, then I will cut off my head and offer it to your feet, because it is better to die than to live ashamed. This is my pledge. Please answer.”

There was silence for some time. No answer was found.

After this, Dhyanu Bhagat cut his head with the sword and presented it to the Goddess.

That very moment, Jwala Devi appeared and the head of Dhyanu Bhagat got fixed to his body and he stood up alive. Jwala Devi said to the devotee, “The head of the horse has also got fixed to its body in Delhi. Leave all your worries and go to Delhi. The reason for being ashamed has been solved and ask for whatever you desire”

Dhyanu – The devotee, bowed down at the feet of the mother and pleaded, “O Jagadamba! You are all powerful, we humans are ignorant, do not even know the method of devotion. Still, the Holy Mother! Please don’t take such an extreme pareeksha (exam) of your devotees. All cannot offer you their head. Please, O Mother Goddess, fulfill the desires of your devotees with an ordinary offerings. ”

“So be it! From now on, I will fulfill the desire by an offering of a coconut instead of sheesh (head) and a prayer with a true heart.” By saying this, Jwala Devi disappeared.

Here this incident happened, in Delhi the horse’s head got attached to his body with the grace of the Goddess. After this the king and all his ministers were shocked and surprised. The king sent his soldiers to Jwala Ji. The soldiers came back and told Akbar, “There are flames of fire emerging from land, Perhaps the miracle is happening because of the flames. If you order, then we will extinguish these flames. By this way the place of Hindu Worship will also be destroyed.

Akbar approved this but some historians believe that without the acceptance of Akbar, the royal soldiers did so. It is said that the royal soldiers first kept the flat iron disks on the holy flames of the Goddess. But the divine flames came out and broke the iron disks. After this, the flow of a canal was further twisted, causing the water of the canal continuously falling on the flames. Still the burning of the flames did not stop. Imperial soldiers informed Akbar that the burning of the flames can not be stopped, all our efforts have failed. Whatever you feel right please do so.

After receiving this news, Emperor Akbar consulted the scholars of the court. After discussing the scholars suggested that you should go and see divine miracles and arrange and offering according to the rules and please the Goddess.

Akbar accepted the suggestion of scholars. A grand golden parasol (chattar) was made. Then he put the golden parasol (chattar) on his shoulder and reached Jwala Ji bare feet. Then he had Darshan of diving flames, his head bowed down with devotion, he started feeling guilty in his heart. Then he started saying, " mother, I am offering you a grand golden parasol (chattar). Till date, no king would have offered you a grand golden parasol (chattar). Please accept my offering." Speaking with the boastful words, a divine flame appeared on the golden parasol (chattar) and then golden parasol (chattar) fell down from Akbar. And as soon as the golden parasol (chattar) fell, it changed into a strange metal, which was neither iron, nor brass, nor copper nor any other metal (unknown metal).

Hence, the Divine rejected the offering.

The parasol gifted by Akbar to Jwala Devi

Seeing this miracle, Akbar praised in many ways and asked for forgiveness from the mother and returned to Delhi after performing many prayers. After reaching Delhi he ordered his soldiers to behave lovingly with all the devotees.

Even today, In the Jwala Devi Temple, the fragmented parasol (chattar) offered by the Akbar Emperor is still displayed, which by appearance looks like gold. Weight is also of gold metal. But the metal is still unknown to the world. The flames in the Jwala Devi Temple are still burning without the presence of oil, ghee and gas. This has been authenticated by scientists.

There are people from other religions making fun of our Gods and Goddesses. This blog is a tight slap for those people underestimating other religions.

Cheap Depictions of Hindu Gods and Goddesses by Maqbool Fida Hussain

Though the topic on the paintings by Maqbool Fida Hussain is an old one, I still wish to speak on this topic. 

This disgusting painter has made very filthy paintings on Parvati, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Sita and Bharat Mata. He has shown Lakshmi and Saraswati as naked goddesses. He has shown Parvati copulating with animals. He has shown Ravana raping Sita. He has shown Bharat Mata getting raped. We all know Parvati loved Shiva so much that she meditated for him without having food and water. So there was no chance that she would willingly copulate with the animals. Also to say that the animals were the devotees of Shiva and Parvati. So they would never think of doing such a thing to her. We know Sita was so powerful that she could hold a bow at the age of 5, which Ravana could not hold inspite of being elderly. So there was no chance of Ravana raping Sita. He has been born as a citizen of India but is showing Bharat Mata getting raped. Isn't this a matter of shame? He was nothing but a traitor. 

The great thing is that he has been eulogising actresses like Madhuri Dixit and Amrita Rao, who are coincidentally one of my favorites. I know they were deeply sad after his death. But they don't know what damage he has done to Indian culture. If they know then I don't think they will forgive him for this. 

Well once I was talking to a girl on this topic and told her that these paintings should be destoryed. She said it's artistic freedom which a narrow-minded girl like me won't understand. Oh really am I so narrow-minded? Does artistic freedom allow you to hurt the integrity and pride of your nation?

I know there are many foreigners who are unaware of the beauty of our culture and the love stories of the divine couples like Brahma-Saraswati, Vishnu-Lakshmi, Ram-Sita, Madhavi-Krishna, Shiva-Parvati, etc. And I very well know that they will take his nasty depictions to be true. So that's why I am making this blog so that the foreigners aren't misunderstood and misguided. There is no room for doubt that this painter has made these paintings to deliberately show our goddesses in poor light. I will rather be happy if the government initiates to burn those paintings (though I don't believe in violence but if it serves a moral purpose, then I support it). I really feel where were the people like the members of the Karni Sena at that time? They should have attacked Mr. Hussain instead of Sanjay Leela Bhansali (though he thought of a wrong dream sequence, but thankfully didn't execute it).

I know the past is the past and cannot be changed. But one thing is for sure. As an Indian, I am never going to forgive him for the wound Maqbool Fida Hussain has given to India's pride.

Does hair oil contribute to hair growth?

Well there are many theories which state that hair oil contributes to hair growth. Now let's understand the science behind this.

Hair oils provide moisture to the hair, which is necessary for its growth in matters of length and volume.  A dry and frizzy scalp can cause hairfall. The moisture content of hair oils also helps in smoothening the hair and removing tangles which cause hairfall. Hair oils also contain cell repairing properties which repair damaged hairs. Hair oils also provide nutrients to the roots of the hair. Massaging of hair oil stimulates blood circulation and revitalizes the tissues causing hair growth. Massaging hair oils before using a shampoo and conditioner can help in balancing of moisture quantities.

But at the same time, the hair oil should be used in right quantity. Excess hair oil causes dirt which further causes hair damage. Use shampoo and conditioner on your hair after 30 minutes of oiling for best results.

Flaws in the writings of Jagat Guru Rampal

Today in thid blog I am going to point out many flaws in the writings of Jagat Guru Rampal Ji which will clarify all the rumours he has claimed.

1. Kabir is not above Tridev

Sant Rampal has always been claiming that Kabir is the supreme God above Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva and Durga. He says that Kabir tries to tell the world that he is the real God by taking incarnation. He said that Allah took incarnation as the poet Kabir Das in Kaliyuga, who was a social reformer and participated in the Bhakti Movement. But if you go by historical evidences, Kabir Das called himself a child of Allah and Ram in one of his writings named 'Bijak'. So how is Kabir the supreme God? He is a godman like Sai Baba, Lokenath Baba or Guru Nanak. But he is not the supreme God above Tridev. Wikipedia further mentions that Kabir treats his soul as the bride (symbolically) of God which further proves that he is not the supreme God. He might be an incarnation of some God as he had magical powers like Sai Baba, but he is not above Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.

Sant Rampal also says that Kabir takes incarnation on earth and tells people that he is the real God. If that is true, why didn't any such incident occur in the life of Jains & Buddhists? Sant Rampal also says that Kabir says that he is above Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. To prove this wrong, I have posted the pictures of the verses below.

A source from the verses of Kabir Das

Translations of verses from 'Bijak'

What can be more authentic than the writings of Kabir Das himself? Talking about the so called evidences in Quran, I consulted my Muslim friend who can read Arabic language (she doesn't know Sant Rampal so kindly don't accuse her of being fake).  She said that the translations are wrong. She said that Allah has nothing to do with Kabir Das in Quran. In the verse 'Khabira' means supreme and it has no relation with Kabir Das. Another Muslim friend also said that the translations by Sant Rampal are incorrect. More research is being conducted right now regarding the authenticity of his translations of the Vedic verses he has shown. Also to state if Kabir would have been Allah, why do we find proofs indicating that Kaaba is a Shiv temple (this means Shiva is Allah) and why did Guru Nanak call Waheguru Onkar/Omkar (a name of Shiva)?

Also to state that Kabir himself never believed in Vedas and Quran. He just believed in humanity. So here Sant Rampal falls on his own trap.

But there are cases which state that Kabir Das was reborn as Sai Baba, an incarnation of Dattatreya and Shiva. So logically Kabir might be an incarnation of Shiva and Dattatreya.

Also read the Devi Suktam from Rig Veda which states that Adishakti is the goddess who makes the lord powerful. Since Kabir in no way is related to Adishakti, this proves that Sant Rampal was deluding innocent devotees. This also proves that Sadashiva is supreme. Also read Devi Upanishad from the Atharva Ved.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dev%C4%ABs%C5%ABkta
https://www.kamakotimandali.com/srividya/devyupanishat.html

Now read the Svetvastara Upanishad from Yajur Veda, which proves the supremacy of Shiva.
https://sanskritdocuments.org/doc_upanishhat/shveta.html?lang=sa

 अजात इत्येवं कश्चिद्भीरुः प्रपद्यते ।

रुद्र यत्ते दक्षिणं मुखं तेन मां पाहि नित्यम् ॥ २१॥

With fear in their minds, people worship you as unborn. Rudra may your face which is full of grace protect us all the time.

Ajat here means unborn. This proves Shiva is not in birth and death. So here one more lie of Sant Rampal is exposed. (Note: Dakshin not only means South, but also someone who loves everyone equally.)

In the Nirvana Upanishad, you will get a verse which states that the worship of Tridev culminates in the worship of the supreme.
http://www.vedarahasya.net/nirvana.htm

Now read this from Guru Granth Sahib.

Gur Eesar Gur Gorakh Gur Barma Gur Parbatee Mai

Gur = spiritual master, Eesar = Shiva, Gorakh = Vishnu Barma = Brahma, Parbatee = Parvati, Mai = Lakshmi and Saraswati

The spiritual masters of mine are Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma. The spiritual masters are also Parvati, Lakshmi and Saraswati.

Wait for another bomb now (from a blog regarding Guru Granth Sahib which are verses by Kabir).

ਕਬੀਰ੝ ਪੂੰਗਰਾ ਰਾਮ ਅਲਹ ਕਾ ਸਭ ਗ੝ਰ ਪੀਰ ਹਮਾਰੇ ॥੫॥
Kabeer is the child of God, Allah, Raam. All the Gurus and prophets are mine. ||5||

 ਸਾਚ੝ ਕਤੇਬ ਬਖਾਨੈ ਅਲਹ੝ ਨਾਰਿ ਪ੝ਰਖ੝ ਨਹੀ ਕੋਈ ॥
Your holy scriptures say that Allah is True, and that he is neither male nor female.

Now we all know that Kabir is a male. But here Allah is called genderless. So again Sant Rampal is trapped.

If you read the blog where he misrepresented the story of Shiva and Sati (in point 5 of this blog), you will get convinced that he has manipulated many things just to put himself in a good position.

If you want to find God in Kabir Das, there is nothing wrong in it. But it is wrong to degrade other Gods or prove the reality fake just to promote your own God. If you have a clean mind, you can find God in Kabir, the way Garib Das found God in Kabir.

2. Durga is not the mother of Tridev

Sant Rampal has written a wrong tale which states that Durga was forcefully married to Kaal (Sadashiva) and raped by him as a result of which the Tridev (Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva) were born. This is wrong and it can be proven by verses in the Durga Chalisa that she was not their mother. In reality Durga is a form of Parvati, the wife of Shiva. One of her forms is known as Skandamata, which means mother of Kartikeyan, the son of Shiva. The Durga Chalisa further states that Saraswati and Lakshmi are incarnations of Parvati. The Shivashtak states that Sadashiva and Shiva are the same. So logically, Brahma and Vishnu are forms of Shiva themselves. Shiva has himself called her Sati, Raudramukhi, etc. Ambika, a name for Durga, is one of the 11 Rudranis. Also to say you will find many Shakti Peethas attributed to Durga, Kali, etc., which prove she is Parvati. The Durga Sahasranamam also states names like Gauri, Maheshwari, etc., which proves that she is the wife of Shiva. This will prove that Sant Rampal is lying as the fake rape rumours of Durga are the root cause of his lies. Also why on earth will a priest (no matter how corrupt he/she is) make someone's mother, the wife of that person?

Though some Purans do state Durga as the mother of Shiva, we don't take it seriously because lots of Purans contradict each other and some Purans spread filthy rumours that Saraswati is the daughter of Brahma, but it's proven that she isn't his daughter. Purans were corrupted by anti-Hindus like the British to degrade Hinduism. The very same Devi Puran (which Sant Rampal refers to) also calls Durga one of the 5 Prakritis, where she is the mother of Ganesh and wife of Shiva.

Also since Durga had too many hands, she could save herself easily. So there was no chance of rape. Even when her husband Shiva has sex with Durga, he has it when she wants it.

Also to mention that Durga means hard to attain. So how could she get raped? Sadashiva performs the tasks of creation, preservation, destruction, concealment and revelation. He is our protector. So how could he rape someone? If she was so vulnerable to rape, then why could Akbar not extinguish her flames in the Jwala Temple (and science has proven this incident)?

Also to state that if Adishakti is called the controller of the lord, then there is no chance that any aspect of Adishakti could get raped.

 कात्यायनाय विद्महे कन्याकुमारि धीमहि । तन्नो दुर्गिः प्रचोदयात् ॥ [Yajurveda T.A. 10.1.7]

Now the name Katyayni proves that the Navdurga theory is true which further proves that Durga and Parvati are same as Katyayni is one of the 9 forms of Durga and as I've mentioned before Skandamata is also one of the Navdurga forms. Kanyakumari is also a form of Parvati. This again proves that Durga and Parvati are same. Now if you guys still think Durga is the mother of Shiva, then I pity you.

 अम्बिकापतये उमापतये पशुपतये नमो नमः ॥ १॥ [YajurVeda T.A. 10.22.1]

This is a hymn in praise of Shiva where he is called the husband of Ambika (Durga), Uma (Parvati) and the lord of animals. You will also find such a verse in Rig Veda in the Hiranyagarbha Suktam. Sant Rampal's game is over now.

Let me also take a verse from Svetvastara Upanishad from Yajur Veda.

मायां तु प्रकृतिं विद्यान्मायिनं च महेश्वरम् ।
तस्यवयवभूतैस्तु व्याप्तं सर्वमिदं जगत् ॥ १०॥

Know that Prakriti is nothing but Maya and Maheswara is the wielder of Maya. The whole world here is pervaded by beings who are part of Him.

As Durga is called Prakriti according to Sant Rampal, she is proven to be the wife of Shiva as Shiva is called her wielder (controller). As Shiva is her controller, he must be her spouse.

Mahabharata Bhishma Parva consists of section where Arjuna worships Godesses Durga:  Thou art the science of Brahma among sciences, and thou that art that sleep of creatures from which there is no waking. O mother of Skanda, O thou that possessest the six (highest) attributes, O Durga, O thou that dwellest in accessible regions, thou art described as Swaha, and Swadha, as Kala, as Kashta, and as Saraswati, as Savitra the mother of the Vedas, and as the science of Vedanta. With inner soul cleansed, I praise thee. O great goddess, let victory always attend me through thy grace on the field of battle. [Bhishma Parva: Section XXIII]  

As it clearly says Durga as Mother of Skanda (Kartikeya). So, she is same as Parvati.

Even in the Tripura Rahasya, you will find Dattatreya (combined incarnation of Tridev) stating that Lalita has names like Amba and Harakanta (wife of Hara, who is Shiva). So now someone who is Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, has verified that Durga is the wife of Shiva. So how is she now the mother of Tridev?

Also to state that the Taittiriya Aranyaka from Yajur Veda proves that Shiva and Sadashiva (Kaal) are same. Sage Narada has also authenticated in the Dattatreya Stotram written by  him that Sadashiva and Shiva are same. Also to state that Shiva is called Mahakal, so he cannot be under the control of Kaal (specially when Shiva and Kaal are same). Also since Kaal and Shiva are same, let me tell you that Shiva cannot think of raping his wife (Durga) though he controls her. Also to mention if Kaal is different from Shiva, why is a form Shiva called Kaal Bhairav? This means Kaal isn't the father of Shiva but an incarnation of Shiva. As Kaal, he is the spouse of Durga, Kali and Bhairavi, forms of Parvati.

The Rudraksha Jabala Upanishad from the Sama Veda states that the Nine Shaktis (Navdurga) reside in the 9-mukhi Rudraksha. This also proves the existence of Navdurgas which proves Durga is a form of Parvati, wife of Shiva.

This case also proves that Sant Rampal is showing and translating verses according to his own benefit. Not with the intention of showing us the truth. He is taking advantage of the fact that we (including me) are not fully aware of what is in the Vedas so he is giving only the side convenient for himself. He has deliberately not shown verses which prove that Shiva is Durga's husband and deliberately not shown Shiva's supremacy. He can stoop to any level for his selfishness.

Also read the blog below to know the logical relationship between Shiva and Durga (that Durga is not the mother of Shiva).

https://adziesinghviews.blogspot.com/2019/05/chandidurgaamba-is-not-mother-of-shiva.html?m=1 

3. Hanuman never interacted with Kabir

Sant Rampal has mentioned a tale in which after few days of the war between Ram and Ravana, Kabir told Hanuman that Ram is not the real God but Kabir is the real God due to which Hanuman had to give up the worship of Ram. But now let me prove this wrong. There is  an incident where Hanuman wanted to see Krishna as Ram and Rukmini as Sita as a result of which Krishna and Rukmini gave him darshan as Ram and Sita. He also says that Sita gave him a bracelet because of which Hanuman met Kabir. But according to the Ramayana, Sita gave him a hair jewel (choodamani). This clearly proves that Hanuman was still devoted to Ram and Kabir never interacted with Hanuman. The verse below, taken from Sundar Kand of the Ramayan clearly proves that Hanuman got a hair jewel from Sita.

मातु मोहि दीजे कछु चीन्हा। जैसें रघुनायक मोहि दीन्हा॥
चूड़ामनि उतारि तब दयऊ। हरष समेत पवनसुत लयऊ॥1॥

4. Shiva was not responsible for the downfall of Ravana

Sant Rampal narrates an incident in which Kabir met Ravana and warned him to hand over Sita back to Ram. If this incident is true, why is it not mentioned in the Ramayana? He ends up blaming Shiva for the downfall of Ravana because Ravana was a devotee of Shiva. He further adds saying that Vibhishana got the kingdom because he was a devotee of Kabir. To clarify, let me tell you that Vibhishana was a devotee of Vishnu, not Kabir. Also to mention that Shiva was not responsible for the downfall of Ravana. Rather Shiva granted Ram a boon to win the battle against Ravana when Ram worshipped Shiva. If the Tridev have no role in changing the luck of people (which Sant Rampal claimed), why did Shiva save the life of Markandeya? Why did Krishna save Draupadi from getting disrobed?

Sant Rampal also claims that because Ravana was a devotee of Shiva, he went to hell. To further explain, there were gatekeepers of Vishnu named Jay and Vijay who were cursed to be born as  enemies of Vishnu. Thus they were born as Hiranyaksha and Hiranyakashipu in the first birth, Ravana and Kumbhakarana in the next birth, and finally Shishupal and Dantavakra in the last birth. In each birth they were killed by an incarnation of Vishnu and finally reached Vaikuthlok. So Ravana never went to hell.

Also Sant Rampal misinterpreted the tale of Bhasmasura and Shiva. Though Shiva granted him a boon that Bhasmasura could destroy anything he touched, Shiva could not die. His soul would remain alive. Think if Kamadeva didn't die inspite of being burnt by Shiva, why would Shiva die? Also Shiva could take back his boon any moment. (And Shiva exists in many ways. He can multiply his forms.) But he didn't do it deliberately. He went to Vishnu to solve his dilemma, not to save his life.

5. Shiva and Sati had a pure relation

Sant Rampal insulted the couple of Shiva and Sati by saying that it was not a marriage but a 'love affair'. He said that Daksh had arranged Sati's marriage with someone else but Shiva took away Sati from the wedding place and Sati willingly wanted this. In reality Sati meditated to have Shiva as her husband as a result of which Shiva was impressed by her meditation and accepted her as his wife. Daksha though did not like Shiva, he accepted the marriage under the pressure of Brahma and Vishnu and got Sati married to Shiva.

Sant Rampal said that because Shiva and Sati had a love marriage, Shiva later got bored with Sati as a result of which she went to Daksha. In reality Shiva was never bored with her. Sati wanted to go to the place of Daksha because he organised a sacrifice where Shiva and Sati were not invited. Shiva initially didn't allow her to go because they were not invited but after so much insistence, he had to succumb to her wish. Though due to Daksha's insulting words towards Shiva, Sati destroyed her body and Shiva beheaded Daksha due to her death, Shiva placed a goat's head on his body and restored him back to life as a result of which Daksha realised his mistake and asked for forgiveness. So the 'love marriage' was not at all the cause of the separation. In fact Sati was reborn as Parvati and won Shiva by her meditation back and both again had a 'love marriage'.

Sant Rampal says that Brahma and Vishnu had a successful married life because their marriage was arranged. Brahma got married to Savitri, Gayatri and Vakdevi (forms of  Saraswati) due to circumstances while Vishnu got married to Shridevi, Bhudevi and Niladevi (forms of Lakshmi) in a love marriage. He also gives incorrect details about the marriage of Shiva, Brahma and Vishnu. He says Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva got married on the same day during the churning of the ocean. But we all know that in reality the three gods were married on different dates. For example, Vishnu was married on Diwali and Shiva on Mahashivratri. He also says that there was no wedding flame in the weddings but the flame of the wedding of Shiva and Parvati still burns in the Triyuginarayan temple. The temple is located in Uttarakhand is not close to the oceans if you see the state in the Indian map. For further details refer to my blog 'Relationship between Brahma, Saraswati, Vishnu, Lakshmi'.

Sant Rampal also says that love marriage is a cause of social unrest and marriage should happen only for the purpose of giving birth to children. What about the social unrest some parents cause by killing the couple if their child marries a person of their choice? I am very sorry to say but be it love marriage or arranged marriage, the soul of a successful and happy marriage lies in the love, understanding and trust between the couple. If by chance a love marriage fails, it is not the fault of the system of love marriage but the parties in the relation. What is the guarentee that the person chosen in an arranged marriage is right? What about cases of marital rape and domestic violence, which happen in arranged marriages, though in love marriages too? What about those malpractices where a young woman was forcefully married to an old man? Is Sant Rampal trying to justify that? Just look at the couples of Shiva-Parvati, Ram-Sita and Krishna-Rukmini which are examples of love marriages. Each couple is an example of an ideal married life.

And now do you really think that this man is a true Saint and a true guide? If you really call him a true saint after this comment then I pity you all. All I can say is that he has deliberately twisted the story of Shiva and Sati and is trying to prove love marriage is wrong just to degrade our Tridev and Tridevi because there are many examples where Tridev and Tridevi had a love marriage. I have sufficient brains to understand his politics just to show that Tridev and Tridevi aren't worth worshipping. I'm not going to tolerate any kind of nonsense on my Uma-Mahershwara which Sant Rampal has spread by manipulating the story of Shiva and Sati and by spreading fake rape rumours of Durga.

Also to state that Kabir Das was someone who supported love. Now it's your choice whom you want to follow. Kabir Das or Mr. Bogus Sant Rampal? If you are truly devoted to Kabir then you should reject Sant Rampal as a your guide as he is contradicting the ideology of Kabir.

6. Krishna narrated the Gita

Sant Rampal claims that Krishna never narrated the Gita. He says Gita was narrated by Kaal. But there is a speech by Krishna where he says that whenever the world will be in trouble due to adharma, Krishna (Vishnu), will take birth on earth to end adharma and bring dharma. And we very well know that Vishnu has often taken incarnations to end evil.

यदा यदा हि धर्मस्य ग्लानिर्भव- ति भारत ।

अभ्युत्थान- मधर्मस्य तदात्मानं सृजाम्यहम्- ॥४-७॥

परित्राणाय- साधूनां विनाशाय च दुष्कृताम्- ।

धर्मसंस्था- पनार्थाय सम्भवामि युगे युगे ॥४-८॥

Saint Rampal says that Kaal narrated the Gita and calls himself 'bad'. If that is true, why would he talk of protecting dharma by destroying evil? We have noticed that whenever a demon would create havoc in the world, it was either Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva or Parvati (Durga, Kali, Tara) who killed the demons. There is no instance where Kabir killed a demon. Now just because Kabir is considered compassionate, people say he cannot kill demons. But to ensure justice in this world, you have to be strict. Violence is necessary if it is for a good purpose to punish the evil.

In Chapter 11, Verse 24, Arjuna is calling the narrator of Gita as Vishnu. In Chapter 10, Verse 14, Arjuna calls the narrator of Gita as Keshava. In Chapter 10, Verse 18, Arjuna calls the narrator of Gita as Janardana. So again Sant Rampal is hiding things for his benefits and is presenting what suits him, so that he can do business in the name of Kabir. It is all because of our lack of knowledge of Gita and Vedas, that many of his followers are deluded.

Though in Chapter 11, Verse 32, Krishna calls himself Kaal, we get another evidence in Chapter 11, Verse 35, where Sanjay says that Keshava (Krishna) is the narrator. Finally in Chapter 11, Verse 41, Arjuna calls Krishna the narrator.

Chapter 14, Verse 21, states that Arjuna called the narrator of Gita as 'Prabho', which means Lord. This again proves Sant Rampal is a liar.

(You can find these names in Sanskrit format. I'm not just telling the mere translations. Reference - Bhagavat Gita App)

Also to state that the narrator of Gita calls himself Mahakal, a name of Shiva. As Krishna is an incarnation of Vishnu, Vishnu can be proven to be an incarnation of Shiva. This also applies to Brahma.

Also to state that in the Gita, Sant Rampal constantly says that Kaal places his seed in the womb of Prakriti as a result of which three gunas (Sattva, Rajas and Tamas), represented by Tridev are born. But I've already proven that Kaal and Shiva are same and Shiva is unborn. And if Shiva is the one who places his seed in the womb of Durga, how can he be born from her womb? So here also Sant Rampal is exposed.

Also to state that Oppenheimer, the inventor of atom bomb, has read the Gita in its Sanskrit format and himself said that Krishna is the narrator of Gita. Now here don't blame Indian priests. This time it's an international scientist who said this.

7. Vedas were created by Brahma

Sant Rampal Ji states that the Vedas were created by Kaal during the churning of the ocean. But Ved Vyas mentions in the Mahabharat  that Brahma created the Vedas. There are also contributions of certain rishis as Brahma transferred the knowledge of Saraswati to the rishis. So Kaal as Brahma creates Vedas.

Sant Rampal also says that Tridev were married after the creation of Vedas. But it's untrue. For example, in Sri Suktam from Rig Veda, it is clearly mentioned that Lakshmi is the wife of Vishnu. The Kena Upanishad from the Sama Veda does tell about the existence of Parvati as Uma. You will also see Vedas calling Uma, the daughter of Himavan. This indicates that she didn't come from the churning of the ocean as claimed by Sant Rampal.

8. Kaal is sinless

Kaal has a name Niranjan. Niranjan means sinless. So there is no chance that Kaal raped Durga as he is sinless. Niranjan is also a name of Shiva which clearly hints that he is Shiva himself and Shiva is the husband of Durga. Niranjan is also the name of Waheguru in his formless state, who is also known as Allah.

Also to say that since Sant Rampal has tried to show Vedic verses and say that Vedas say that Kabir is supreme, let me prove that the Yajur Veda proves Shiva as supreme. The Pancha Brahma Upanishad from the Krishna Yajur Veda tells us that Shiva in his five-fold manifestation named Sadashiva is considered supreme. So the Kaal whom he is trying to prove as a sinner is actually the one worthy of worship. For further details read 'Connection between Sadashiva and Adishakti'.

9. Durga knows everything

In one instance, Sant Rampal says that Durga asks Kabir to protect her from Kaal, which states that she must have known that Kabir is supreme. In another situation, he says that Durga doesn't know the supreme God as she says that Kaal is supreme. Isn't this contradicting? Further to say that Durga incarnates as Saraswati (goddess of knowledge), Lakshmi (goddess of wealth) and Parvati (goddess of power, love and nourishment). So there is no chance that she doesn't know about the supreme entity.

10. Sant Rampal is not an incarnation of Kabir

Though Kabir is not a supreme God, he indeed had adorable qualities and was a godman like Sai Baba, Lokenath Baba, Guru Nanak and Ramkrishna Paramhansa. But funnily this bogus Sant Rampal calls himself an incarnation of Kabir, whom he treats as the supreme God. He was first a devotee of some Gods. If he is the supreme God's incarnation, why didn't he know his own divinity before? Why was he worshipping other Gods initially? On the other hand, Kabir Das was a very humble human being who never insulted anyone. Sant Rampal has even insulted Shiva and Krishna. Does any true godman or saint do such things? Funnily his followers say that the supreme God does not have a wife. Then why does Sant Rampal have a wife named Naro Devi? A big contradiction. He is also charged with cases of rape and murder. Now if you guys think he is innocent, let me tell you that if he can spread wrong rumours of Durga getting raped, then he can definitely rape a normal girl.

That's all I need to say. I hope if you people are logical and thoughtful, you will not fall in his trap. Only naive people will believe him. It is also very unfortunate that just because of this bogus Sant Rampal, some people are insulting Kabir Das. It's not the fault of Kabir Das if this bogus creature is spreading lies. Rather Kabir Das must be getting angry witnessing all this from heaven. If you people abuse Kabir Das just because of this person, you are abusing someone dear to your own god and inviting the wrath of your beloved god.

Note : I am not an expert in Vedas, Gita, Puranas and Upanishads, but I will also say that by whatever little knowledge I got from the sources mentioned above, I have that much common sense to understand the conspiracy of Sant Rampal. He is as bad as Zakir Naik. He is a traitor to his own religion.

For further clarification regarding the fact that Kabir never claimed himself as the supreme God, do read the link below.

Chandi/Durga/Amba is not the mother of Shiva

Chandi, also known as Durga and Amba, is a form of Parvati, the wife of Shiva. But there are some people who are saying that she is the mother of Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma, and the wife of Kaal. In this blog I'm going to prove that she isn't the mother of Shiva.

There are 9 forms of the Navadurga -

1. Shailputri
2. Brahmacharini
3. Chandraghanta
4. Kushmanda
5. Skandamata
6. Katyayni
7. Kaalratri
8. Mahagauri
9. Siddhidhatri

The name 'Shailputri' is clearly that form of Parvati in which she is considered as the daughter of the mountains. Himavan, the father of Parvati, is considered to be the king of mountains. 

The name 'Skandamata' suggests that she is the mother of Skanda (Kartikeyan), the son of Shiva. This is also a proof that she is a form of Parvati and the wife of Shiva. 

Kaalratri is the goddess who takes the form of Kali and Tara. We all know that Kali and Tara are the consorts of Shiva in the form of Mahakal and Akshobhya. 

The name 'Mahagauri' also proves that she is the wife of Shiva as Gauri is a name of Parvati.

Now let's take a verse from the Durga Chalisa proving that she is the wife of Shiva:

This verse states that Durga removes bad times and she is Gauri, the wife of Shiva.

Now let's talk about the Mahavidyas: 

1. Kali

2. Tara 

3. Shodashi / Tripurasundari

4. Bhuwaneshwari 

5. Bhairavi

6. Chinnamasta

7. Dhumavati 

8. Matangi

9. Kamala

10. Bagalmukhi

The names of some of these Mahavidyas are also mentioned in the Durga Chalisa. 

The Bhagvati Naam Mala consisting of 108 names of Durga is narrated by Shiva where he calls her Sati, Shiv-pyari, Kali, Annapurna, Maheshwari, Raudramukhi, etc.

Also to state that Ambika (a name for Durga) is considered to be one of the 11 Rudranis.

You will also find many Shakti Peethas attributed to Durga, Kali, etc., which prove they are Parvati as the body parts of Sati (previous birth of Parvati) fell there.

Now let's talk about Sadashiva. He is absolutely non-different from Shiva. There is only a difference in matters of looks. Sadashiva has five heads and ten hands. Shiva has two hands and one head. Otherwise they are same. This can be proven from the following: 

Also to state that Sadashiva is the consort of Shodashi. The Mahavidyas are a form of Parvati as they emerged from her when she was Sati. So this also proves Sadashiva is Shiva only. When Adishakti is Tripurasundari (Kameswari) and Bhuvaneswari, then Sadashiva is Tripurari (Kameswara) and Triyambak respectively (both are names of Shiva).

Also Lalita Sahasranama describes Lalita (Shodashi) as Sadashiva Pativrata (the devoted wife of Sadashiva) and also as Gurupriya or the consort of Shiva, the great Guru.

And,the same stotram also says "Kaameshabaddha Mangalya sutra shobhita kantharaa" Or "the Mangala Sutra tied by Kameswara is around her neck".

Even in the Tripura Rahasya, you will find Dattatreya (combined incarnation of Tridev) stating that Lalita has names like Amba and Harakanta (wife of Hara, who is Shiva). So now someone who is Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, has verified that Durga is the wife of Shiva.

Brahma and Vishnu emerge from Sadashiva while Saraswati and Lakshmi emerge from Adishakti, the wife of Sadashiva. Parvati as Maheshwari (Shambhavi) and Rudrani is the complete form of Adishakti while Shiva as Maheshwara (Shambhu) and Rudra is the complete form of Sadashiva. Parvati and Shiva are non-different from Adishakti and Sadashiva. Even the Durga Chalisa proves that Saraswati and Lakshmi are incarnations of Parvati.

The Durga Saptashati also clearly states that when Shumbh and Nishumbh were torturing the devas, they worshipped Parvati because after she killed Mahishasur, she gave them a boon that whenever they would ask for help she would be there. So Parvati assumes the form of Durga to kill Mahishasur, Shumbh and Nishumbh. She killed Dhumralochan with one blow. And as Kali, Parvati killed Chand, Mund and Raktibeej as per the instructions of Durga. This indicates that Parvati is both Durga and Kali.

Parvati is considered to be the goddess of power. Power is necessary for destruction. The destructive power is represented by Durga, Kali, etc. Thus, again it's proven that Durga is Parvati and is the wife of Shiva, the destroyer.

कात्यायनाय विद्महे कन्याकुमारि धीमहि । तन्नो दुर्गिः प्रचोदयात् ॥ [Yajurveda T.A. 10.1.7]

Now the name Katyayni proves that the Navdurga theory is true which further proves that Durga and Parvati are same as Katyayni is one of the 9 forms of Durga and as I've mentioned before Skandamata is also one of the Navdurga forms. Kanyakumari is also a form of Parvati. This again proves that Durga and Parvati are same. Now if you guys still think Durga is the mother of Shiva, then I pity you.

 अम्बिकापतये उमापतये पशुपतये नमो नमः ॥ १॥ [YajurVeda T.A. 10.22.1]

This is a hymn in praise of Shiva where he is called the husband of Ambika (Durga), Uma (Parvati) and the lord of animals.

Let also take a verse from Svetvastara Upanishad from Yajur Veda.

मायां तु प्रकृतिं विद्यान्मायिनं च महेश्वरम् ।
तस्यवयवभूतैस्तु व्याप्तं सर्वमिदं जगत् ॥ १०॥

Know that Prakriti is nothing but Maya and Maheswara is the wielder of Maya. The whole world here is pervaded by beings who are part of Him.

As Durga is called Prakriti, she is proven to be the wife of Shiva as Shiva is called her wielder.

Now there is some bogus Jagat Guru who has been spreading nonsensical rumours that Kaal (Sadashiva) forcefully married and raped Durga/Amba as a result of which Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva were born. It is a fake rumour. Durga means someone who is hard to get. She was so witty that even the most powerful demons could not win battles against her. So how could anyone rape her? And Sadashiva is someone who performs the tasks of creation, preservation, destruction, concealment and revelation via Brahma, Vishnu, Shambhu, Rudra and his own self. He is the protector of his devotees. Sadashiva is also known as Niranjan which means sinless. Then how can he rape someone? Also Parvati/Durga/Kali is so powerful that Shiva can have sex with her only with her permission. That bogus Jagat Guru claims Kabir to be the supreme God who takes birth and tries to save us from the world and took birth as Kabir Das. But in reality Kabir Das called himself the child of Allah and Ram (an incarnation of Vishnu, who is further an incarnation of Sadashiva) in his own poem 'Bijak'. So how can Kabir be the supreme God?

I hope everything this clarified now.

Fruit and Milk Ice Cube Facial

Well we all are facing different skin problems like skin tan, acne and dark spots, dark circles, uneven skin tone, etc. Today I'm going to show you a special solution to all the problems.

This is the picture of a round shaped ice cube containing the following ingredients:

1. Half cup raw milk (compulsory)

2. Quarterly spoon coconut oil/almond oil/cashew oil (optional)

3. Quarterly spoon honey

4. 1 spoon mango juice

5. 1 spoon papaya juice

6. Few drops lemon juice and cucumber juice (optional)

7. 1 pinch jaggery (optional)

8. 1 spoon curd 

9. One-tenth spoon butter/ghee (optional)

(For better results you can add fresh aloe vera gel though it's not included in this.)

You need to mix these ingredients and put it in a liquid consistency and place it in a deep freezer so that it gains the shape of an ice. After cooling, you can rub this ice cube on the affected area.

This mixture has the following benefits:

1. Helps in lightening dark spots and dark circles.

2. Makes your skin youthful.

3. Removes skin tan and makes the skin tone even.

4. Lightens your complexion.

5. Moisturizes your skin.

6. When you take it the skin cube out in (specially in summers), a part of it is bound to melt. The melted liquid can be applied in the hair as it will boost hair growth, reduce hairfall, cleanse and moisturise the hair.

7. Soothes the skin and provides relief.
8. Lightens and moisturises the lips.
9. Removes dead cells.

This can be made at  home and is economical. It also does not contain side effects as the ice cube is long lasting when kept in the freeezer.

(Note: You can use either of mango juice or papaya juice or you can use both together. Also use as less lemon juice as possible in case you use. And if you use lemon juice, immediately put the mixture in the freezer. Use raw milk, not boiled milk.)

Sidharth, Alia, Aditya, Shraddha - The Costar Rectangle

After the release of 'Kalank', we have realised the costar rectangle in the case of Sidharth Malhotra, Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor. Well let's discuss about each and every couple in detail. 

Sidharth Malhotra & Alia Bhatt

Sidharth and Alia have debuted together in 'Student of the Year', where they had a crackling chemistry. As Abhimanyu and Shanaya, they really complimented each other. There Shanaya was the girlfriend of Rohan, played by Varun Dhawan. Abhimanyu sacrifices his love for Shanaya for the sake of his friend Rohan. He rather tries to unite Shanaya and Rohan by making Rohan jealous of Abhimanyu. In the process, Sidharth and Alia create spark in their chemistry, specially during the scene where Shanaya massages Abhimanyu. Later, when Shanaya goes to Abhimanyu, they have a romantic moment together because of which later Rohan breaks up with Shanaya and eventually Shanaya marries Abhimanyu. In this film, I found the chemistry of Sidharth with Alia more sparkling than that of Varun with Alia (this funnily made me ship Varun Dhawan with Ileana D'Cruz as I saw him next with her) though Varun had a great chemistry with Alia in other movies. 

Later, we see Sidharth and Alia in the Coca-Cola ads. In one of the ads we see them as a married couple where Alia is initially hesitant to talk to Sidharth but tells him she likes the taste of Coca-Cola. When he offers her a Coca-Cola bottle on seeing a shop of Coca-Cola, she gives him the bottle and says, "Mujhe aap bhi bahut pasand hai." Now isn't that cute?

We also see Sidharth and Alia in 'Kapoor & Sons'. There also they had a decently good chemistry and their song 'Ladki Beautiful Kar Gayi Chull', 'Bolna Mahi Bolna' and 'Lets Nacho' were superhit tracks.

We also have known that Sidharth and Alia have been in a relationship for around 3 years but unfortunately have broken up. But it's good to know that they are still friends. Hoping to see them together in more movies.  I still have faint hopes of them uniting in real life.

Aditya Roy Kapoor & Shraddha Kapoor

Before working with each other, both were facing struggles. When they came together, they created a masterpiece in the remake of 'Aashiqui' as Rahul and Arohi. Each and every song complemented their chemistry, be it 'Tum Hi Ho', 'Piya Aaye Na', etc. Here Rahul is a struggling singer who is terribly alcoholic. Arohi dreams to be a singer. She becomes successful with the help of Rahul. Rahul finds himself to be a mismatch for a successful singer like Arohi but Arohi still remains loyal to him. She even decides to leave her career for him. When Rahul realises it, he decides to commit suicide so that she can fulfill her dreams to be successful. Arohi is broken when she gets to know about his death but later continues as a singer in order to honour the sacrifice made by Rahul. At the end when Arohi is asked for an autograph, she writes the name 'Arohi Rahul Jaikar' in the hand of her fan. Now that's an aww moment. Even the jacket scene in the rain was aww. Thankfully we see them together again in 'Ok Jaanu', where they end up happily together. They have a decently good chemistry here too and the songs like 'Humma Humma', 'Inna Sona' and 'Ok Jaanu' are amazing.

Aditya and Shraddha also dated for a short span of time but unfortunately even they broke up. But thankfully they are still friends. Hoping to see them onscreen as a couple again. I still have faint hopes of them uniting in real life.

Sidharth Malhotra & Shraddha Kapoor

This couple was worth singing a film together. They are amazing as Guru & Aisha in 'Ek Villain'. Initially Guru is a very lonely and crude person. He is a gangster who eventually mends his ways when Aisha enters his life. Aisha is just the opposite. A fun-loving and cheerful person. She is the one who makes him more soft at heart. Their songs like 'Teri Galliyan', 'Humdard', 'Banjare' and 'Zaroorat' are amazing. When Aisha and her child in her womb are killed by the villain, it is Guru who avenges her death. After her death, he becomes sad and lives with her memories.

Well after the breakup of Aditya with Shraddha and Sidharth with Alia, I've started wondering about Sidharth dating Shraddha. Both are single. Both are sober. They'll be great together. But who am I to decide their personal life? It was just my thought. I just said that out of my sadness due to the breakup of Aditya-Shraddha and Sidharth-Alia.

Aditya Roy Kapoor & Alia Bhatt

Now we do get to see Aditya and Alia as Dev and Roop - a married couple in 'Kalank'. But Dev loves his first wife and tells her, "Iss rishtey mein izzat hogi, pyaar nahi." As a result, Roop decides to spend time by learning singing from Bahar Begum, played by Madhuri Dixit. There she meets Zafar, played by Varun Dhawan, and both gradually fall in love. Though Varun and Alia are the main couple here and have an amazing chemistry, the chemistry of Aditya and Alia is no less. Initially Zafar tries to use Roop just to take revenge from Balraj as he refused to accept him as his son. Thus, he decides to get romantic with the wife of Dev, his step-brother. When Bahar Begum tells Roop the truth (though by that time Zafar realises his love for Roop), Roop is psychologically broken. As a result she decides to consummate her marriage with Dev, who has started loving her and asks for her permission for consummating their marriage. Even during the time Roop is making love to Dev, she is filled with love for Zafar, but decides to consummate her marriage with Dev only to make herself owned by Dev. She confesses about her equation with Zafar to Dev, who forgives her as an understanding person. At the end we see Roop trying to take Zafar inside the train, but he is unfortunately shot dead. When Roop, is about to fall, Dev holds her hand and saves her. After 10 years, both are together as a married couple, but they don't feel that kind of passionate love for each other as Roop still loves Zafar and Dev still loves Satya. But there is no doubt that Aditya and Alia look amazing together. I loved the part where Dev opened the hairs of Roop. Their wedding outfit suits them so much that it literally made me think of them getting married to each other in real life too. We are also going to see them in the sequel of 'Sadak'.

Well indeed all the four couples are amazing in their own place. Do comment your favourite couple in the comments section.

Children of Shiva & Parvati

In this blog we are going to discuss about the children of our dear couple Shiva & Parvati.

Kartikeyan

Kartikeyan is considered to be the eldest son of Shiva & Parvati. After Sati's death, a demon named Tarakasur had tortured the Devas and usurped their kingdom. He was granted a boon that he could only be killed by the son of Shiva. After Shiva's marriage with Parvati, Shiva's semen fell on the waters of Ganga. This semen was transported by Agni and fell on Bhudevi. This semen was further sent to the 6 Krittikas. These Krittikas raised Kartikeyan as their child after which he was sent to kill Tarakasur. After the death of Tarakasur, he resided in Kailash. Later he got married to Devsena and Valli, the rebirth of the daughters of Vishnu and Lakshmi named Amritavalli and Sundaravalli respectively.

Ganesha

Ganesha is considered to be the most popular child of Shiva & Parvati. Once Shiva entered Parvati's bathroom without her permission as Nandi was unable to stop Shiva from entering her washroom. As a result Parvati decided to create a child who would obey her. Thus she created a child from turmeric paste and added life in it. Thus, Ganesha was born. When Shiva was insisting to enter Parvati's washroom, Ganesha did not allow him to do so. Thus, the angered Shiva beheaded Ganesha with his trident but later resurrected him back to life by placing an elephant's head in order to avoid Parvati's wrath. He was even given the boon of being worshipped first by Shiva and declared that all worships would be unfruitful without the worship of Ganesha. Ganesha is married to Siddhi and Buddhi/Riddhi. Logically Riddhi and Buddhi are the same person as we never hear Riddhi-Buddhi together but hear Riddhi-Siddhi or Siddhi-Buddhi. He has two sons named Kshebh and Labh and a daughter named Santoshi. He is the remover of all obstacles and is one of the cutest gods ever.

Ayyappan

Ayyappan is the common child of Shiva and Mohini, the female for of Vishnu. A demoness named Mahishi was granted a boon to be killed by the common son of Shiva and Vishnu. Thus Ayyappan was born from Shiva and Mohini. Ayyappan can also be considered to be the child of Parvati, Lakshmi and Saraswati as Parvati is the wife of Shiva and Saraswati and Lakshmi are the wives of Vishnu.

Manasa 

Mansa was born from the falling of the semen of Shiva which was transported to the womb of Kadru, the wife of Kashyap. Parvati was suspicious that Manasa was a secret wife of Shiva and not his daughter. Due toquarells with Parvati, Shiva had to denounce her. One Parvati advised her to wear a garland of snakes on her wedding night after her marriage with Jagatkaru. This frightened Jagatkaru as a result of which he denounced her. Thus she became very aggressive. But in reality she is very kind to her devotees and is said to be a protector from the bites of snakes as her vehicle is a snake.

Ashoksundari

Once Parvati was willing to have a daughter and prayed to the Kalpa tree for a daughter as a result of which Ashoksundari was born. She was later married to Nahush.

Jyoti

Jyoti is also an important daughter of Shiva and Parvati. According to one legend, she is born from Shiva's halo and according to another legend she is born from the spark emerging from Parvati's forehead.

Hanuman

Though he is claimed to be an incarnation of Shiva, there are some hints which prove that he is his son. He is known as Shankar Suvan, which means the son of Shiva in the Hanuman Chalisa. 

How to catch fake accounts on Facebook?

We all know that Facebook is flooded with fake accounts and it is important to ensure that we are safe from such users. In this blog I'm going to share some clues regarding the identification of fake accounts.

1. Texting Style 

First we need to check the texting style of the interconnected account. This can include spelling, punctuations, grammar, language, etc. If we see a striking similarity between the accounts then there is a high chance that these accounts are maintained by one person.

2. Editing Style 
If the editing style used in the pictures of the account is strikingly same, then there's a high chance that the same person is managing the account.


3. Online Timings
This is one of the most important thing to note. For example if you see that the accounts are not online at the same time, then there's a huge chance that the same person is managing the account. Also if you notice that after one account is offline, you immediately see another account online and this continues, then there's a big chance that the accounts are managed by one person.

4. Presence of Real Life Pictures
The presence of real life pictures also determines whether the account is real or fake. The more the real life pictures, the more are the chances that the accounts are real.

5. Presence of Real Life People
The more you see verifiable real life people in the accounts, the higher the chance that the accounts are real.

Demons slayed by Parvati

We all know that Parvati has slayed many demons assuming the form of Chandika, Mahakali, Rudrani, etc. Today we are going to give a detailed account of the demons she has slayed. 

Madhu & Kaitabh 

Once two demons named Madhu & Kaitabh were formed from the dirt of Vishnu and were eager to kill Brahma. At that time Vishnu was asleep. Brahma was frightened as a result of which he prayed to Yogmaya, a form of Adishakti as Mahakali, to awaken Vishnu. Hearing his prayers she awakened Vishnu who fought the demons for 5000 years. Yogmaya decided to put the demons in delusions through her power as a result of which they became boastful and told Vishnu that they are impressed by his fighting skills so he should ask for a boon. Vishnu said that he wants a boon to kill them. The demons saw that the entire region was filled with water so they should kill him in a place where there is no water. Vishnu laid the demons in his thighs and killed the demons. Though Vishnu directly killed them, it was Yogmaya who indirectly killed them. Without her contribution, it was impossible to kill them.

Mahishasur

Once Mahishasur had captured heaven by defeating the Devas. The Devas along with Brahma went to Vishnu and Shiva and narrated the entire tale. All the Gods created a goddess from their powers named Mahalakshmi, a form of Durga/Amba, the warrior aspect of Parvati.

The battle began between her and the demons. Chakshur & Chamar were the general of the army of Mahishasur. Udagra accompanied with 60000 chariots, Mahahanu accompanied with 10000000 chariots, Asiloman with 15000000 chariots, Bidala with 5000000000 chariots, Baskala with 6000000 chariots, Privarita with 10000000 chariots and many horses and elephants fought in the battle. Mahishasur also hand many chariots in the battle. Other demons tried to attack her using maces, javelins, spears, clubs, swords, axes and halberds. But by showering her own weapons, she had cut those weapons into two halves. She killed hundreds of demons with her trident, club, showers of spears, swords and the like, and threw down others who were stupefied by the noise of her bell; and binding others with her noose, she dragged them on the ground. Some were split into two by the sharp slashes of her sword, and others, smashed by the blows of her mace, lay down on the ground; and some severely hammered by club vomited forth blood.

Pierced in the breast by her trident, some fell on the ground. Pierced all over by her arrows and resembling porcupines, some of the enemies of devas gave up their lives on that field of battle. Some had their arms cut off, some, their necks broken the heads of others rolled down; some others were torn asunder in the middle of their trunks, and some great demons fell on the ground with their legs severed. Some rendered one-armed, one-eyed, and one-legged were again clove in twain by Durga. And others, though rendered headless, fell and rose again. The profuse blood from the demons, elephants and horses flowed immediately like large rivers amidst that army of the demoms. As fire consumes a huge heap of straw and wood, so did Amba destroy that vast army of asuras in no time.

Seeing the destruction of the army, Chakshur advanced towards Durga and attacked her with arrows. His arrows were cut, chariot was broken, horses were killed and charioteer was slained.  He rushed towards her and tried to attack her and her lion with a sword but the sword was cut into pieces. When he tried to attack her with his pike, she used her pike and cut his pike into 1000 fragments and later killed him.

Udagra was killed in the battle with stones, trees, etc. Karala was stricken down by her teeth, fists and slaps. Uddhata was destroyed by the blows of her club. Basakala was destroyed with the help of a dart. Tamra and Andhaka were destroyed with the help of her arrows. Ugrasya, Ugravirya and Mahahanu were destroyed by her trident. Bidala was beheaded with the help of a sword. Durdhara and Durmudha were killed by her arrows.

Seeing the destruction of his army, Mahishasur came to fight Durga. A terrible battle occured between both as a result of which Mahishasur was killed. After his death the Devas praised Durga as a result of which she told them to ask for a boon. The Devas asked for the boon that whenever they remember her, may she be there for them.

Dhumralochan

Once demons named Shumbh & Nishumbh had captured heaven by defeating the Devas. The Devas were reminded of the boon granted to them by Durga/Amba and they prayed to her for help. On hearing their prayers, Parvati came to them. From her body emerged Mahasaraswati, another form of Durga/Amba. From her darker parts came Kali. 

The beauty of Durga was so extraordinary that on seeing her the friends of Shumbh and Nishumbh named Chand and Mund advised them to marry her. Shumbh told his messenger Sugriv to tell her to marry him as he is the king of the worlds while she is extraordinarily beautiful. When Sugriv tells her about his wish, she says that she has taken a vow to marry a man who can defeat her in the battlefield so Shumbh and Nishumbh must defeat her in order to marry her. Angered by the rejection, the demons ordered Dhumralochan either to tell her to accept them willingly or forcefully bring her to them.

Dhumralochan went to Durga with an army of 60000 demons and told her to accept Shumbh & Nishumbh willingly otherwise he would forcefully drag her. Durga said that she was ready to fight with him. With a blow she destroyed the demon.

Chand & Mund 

After the defeat of Dhumralochan, Shumbh & Nishumbh ordered Chand & Mund to attack Durga with their group of demons. They saw Amba, smiling gently, seated upon the lion on a huge golden peak of the great mountain. On seeing her, some of them excited themselves and made an effort to capture her, and others approached her, with their bows bent and swords drawn.

Thereupon Amba became terribly angry with those foes, and in her anger her countenance then became dark as ink. Out from the surface of her forehead, fierce with frown, suddenly issued Kali of terrible countenance, armed with a sword and noose. Bearing the strange skull-topped staff, decorated with a garland of skulls, clad in a tiger’s skin, very dangerous owing to her emaciated flesh, with gaping mouth, fearful with her tongue lolling out, having deep-sunk reddish eyes and filling the regions of the sky with her roars, and falling upon impetuously and slaughtering the great demons in that army, she devoured those hosts of the foes of the devas. Kali rushed towards Chand, and seizing him by his hair, severed his head with her sword. Seeing Chand killed, Mund also rushed towards her. She threw him on the ground, striking him with her sword in her fury. As she killed Chand & Mund, she got the name of Chamunda.

Raktibija

After the death of Chand & Mund, Shumbh & Nishumbh sent Raktibija to fight Durga. Raktibija had a boon that if a drop of his blood fell on the ground, from that drop a new form of him would appear. As a result when the fight was going on, the falling drops of blood created new forms of the demon. Thus Durga ordered Kali to drink the blood of the demon and ensure that the blood doesn't fall on the ground. Kali followed the instructions of Durga as a result of which Raktibija was killed. 

Shumbh & Nishumbh

Shumbh and Nishumbh were frustrated seeing their army destroyed. Nishumbh rushed forward with the chief forces of the demons. Shumbh also marched forward with his troops. Both were surrounded by demons from all sides. Amba shotaarrows at them and splittthe arrows shot by the demons and smote them on their limbs with a mass of weapons. After some time she killed both the demons and won the battle.

Arunasur

Once Arunasur had defeated the Devas as a result of which he could capture heaven. Seeing the wives of the Devas, his mind got filled with lust. To protect themselves, the wives of the Devas assumed the form of bees and prayed to Durga to protect them. Durga, mount on her tiger, started a war with the demon, killed him and protected the purity of the wives of the Devas.

Clarification to rumours on Draupadi

We all know about Draupadi - the incarnation of Kali. Well I need to tell that I'm getting really cheap rumours about her. In this blog I'm going to give a clarification of each rumour.

First I got rumours about Draupadi falling for Krishna. How can she fall in love with Krishna, who is like a brother to her? If she was in love with him, she would never tie him a rakhi. I also read that some people are saying Draupadi willingly got physical with Krishna. I mean why will Krishna cheat his besties - Pandavas? That Krishna who taught us what friendship is.

Next I got rumours that she loved Karna because he protected her from Vasuki. First of all Karna was the one who called her a whore and because of him Duryodhana ordered Dusshasana to disrobe her and put her on his lap but thankfully she was saved by Krishna. Karna said such bitter things because she rejected him in her swayamvar. On the other hand Karna was happily married to Vrushali, Supriya (Uruvi) and Padmavati. Why would he have feelings for Draupadi? Why would Draupadi have feelings for Karna when she has protective Pandavas? Though she was disappointed by Yudhisthira to lose her in gambling, she was still devoted to him. And the biggest thing, Bheema was always there to protect her and destroy the people who had set bad eyes on her, so there was no need to feel less secure and fall for Karna.

The most horrible version is in 'Bheel Mahabharat' which talks about Vasuki raping her in front of Arjuna. She is an incarnation of Kali. Nobody can dare to rape her. Vasuki is the snake of Shiva. Why would he rape a lady who is an incarnation of his master's wife? Also to note that Krishna is always there to protect her.

Another thing to prove that the 'Bheel Mahabharat' version is fake. In one place it says that Vasuki kidnapped her before the exile period. On another hand it says that Karna saved her during the exile period where both apologized to each other and Karna apologized to her for calling her a slut. Now how's that logically possible?

I hope it's all clear now that Draupadi was faithful to the Pandavas - Yudhisthira, Bheema, Arjuna, Nakula and Sahdeva - the incarnations of Shiva himself.

Was Hanuman the son of Shiva?

Since childhood we all have been hearing that Hanuman is an incarnation of Shiva. But in this blog, I'll show you a twist in the tale proving that Hanuman is the son of Shiva.

The first proof is that in the Hanuman Chalisa, Hanuman is known as Shankar Suvan. In the Shiv Chalisa, Ganesha is known as Girija Suvan. Girija here is Parvati and Ganesha is the son of Parvati. This means that Suvan means son. This also means that Hanuman is the son of Shankar, a name of Shiva. 

Now have you ever wondered why Tulasi leaves are offered to Hanuman but not to Shiva? Tulasi cursed Shiva that her leaves would never be given as an offering to Shiva as he had killed her husband named Jalandhar. If Hanuman was an incarnation of Shiva, then why would have Tulasi leaves been offered to Hanuman? Why are Bilva leaves, which are dear to Shiva, not offered to Hanuman?

Also to state that giving vermillion to Hanuman is auspicious but giving vermillion to Shiva is inauspicious. Had Hanuman been an incarnation of Shiva, then offering vermillion to Shiva would not have been inauspicious.

One legend says that Hanuman was born through the falling of the semen of Shiva which was transported to Anjana's womb with the help of Vayu. In the same way Kartikeyan was born by the falling of the semen of Shiva which had fallen into the river of Ganga, carried by Agni, fell on Bhudevi and sent to Krittikas. Even the semen of Shiva fell which was later transported to the womb of Kadru, the wife of Kashyap, as a result of which Mansa was born. If Hanuman is the incarnation of Shiva, then why is Kartikeyan not considered to be the incarnation of Shiva? This shows that Shiva and Vayu are the spiritual fathers of Hanuman while Anjana and Kesari are the biological parents of Hanuman.
