Premium Member The Third Eye In Hinduism-N
The spirit or third eye is the center to see the world
Without it there is all pervading spiritual darkness.
We are truly spirits who occupy physical bodies
Without bodies couldn’t be a part of physical reality.

Boosts functions of perception, intuition, visualization
Its element light, the seat of the...

Hinduism 


Belief in reincarnation,
And desire for liberation,
From all earthly evils,
Through good karma,
Is pure Hinduism !

One eternal truth,
Of divine supreme,
And many forms in nature,
Freedom of ideas,
Is a way of life !

Four Vedas and Upanishads,
Logical and scientific,
The holy Bhagwad Gita,
Turns the belief firm !

Live and let live,
Honour...

Premium Member Eternal Life and the Total Self

Life is but a fleeting whisper echoing through time,
never dying, always being- magnificent and sublime.
The body's a receptacle, a superficial shell,
but in it dwells the gift of Soul; eternity knows it well.

The Soul contains the truths of life,
to all that's ever been;
to all things now,...

Of your children, let me be the father
You work really hard, from dawn to dusk

You are my Durga - you can multi-tusk
You play so many roles - in daily chore
You...

Premium Member We're All Equal
We must never forget that
we're human beings, above all.
We're God's children, all equal in his eyes.
We need to treat each other 
with the utmost respect and dignity.
We need to learn how to peacefully co-exist.

Notwithstanding our deity of worship -
Whether you call God just that, God,...

How sweet it is that I am with you

No heck to distinguish any one from the others 
They are the same weed of the same soil 
Eating up the crop...

A Man of the Cloth
A thin, frail man of the cloth
who went to England to study law at the age of 19
It was there that he was inspired by
Henry David Thoreau’s ‘Civil Disobedience’

On Jan. 30, 1948 at 5:12 in the evening
as he walked to a prayer meeting
Nathuram Vanayak Godge,

"Don’t try to drag me into Oz
It will never work
I’ll kill the Munchkins and the witch
I swear I’ll go berserk"
--From "Malice In Wonderland" by Joyce Rugg

The scandal behind us,
We look to break through
To a new dimension.
The mind folds inward
leaving creases.
The mind lives inside the the...

Higher consciousness can be attained through chanting.
"OM" is a popular chant within many a religion,
including but not limited to Jainism, Hinduism and Buddhism.
I do my share of chanting now and again,
but I don't chant "OM," I chant "Amen"
a chant that while chanted can also sung,
Amen,...

Premium Member Lead Me From Falsehood To Truth-W
Sanatan Dharma in Hinduism means
Universal religion, eternal truth, Ankh
Globally it means Universal law.

Religion is like the peel of banana
and spirituality is the banana.

Speak the truth which is preferable that
Intelligent one prefers it while the
Ignorant one selects the pleasurable.
Do not speak the truth to manipulate
Do not...
