Behind every Idol/Murti there is an idea. Swami Vivekananda explained the need of idol worshiping. [1.The Mind of Swami Vivekananda - Page 71 - Google Books Result

books.google.co.in/books?isbn=8172242123]

 Let us discuss in different way here. If we look minutely we can see all the religions in the world worship/respect some specific symbols; including those who contradict idol worshipping. Idol is also symbol. Human brain is such that we can realize easily some theory with some model [ as in the science classes]. This idol is also the model. Different sages, Rishis, and Munies tried to explain the feeing of the totality of Paramatma/God with different model. In every where there are some similarities.1.Each of this idol is complete.2. Each can provide the Bhakta upto his prayer. 3. Each is the enemy of evil.

The idol has specific color, style, weapon, liking and disliking and effect ,They have their specific type of puja.

Idol is made up of earthly matters. Again if we approach towards Paramatma we will come across the matter, energy and Atma. Energy conservation law says energy is constant. Mass conservation law says Mass is constant. Only what happens is the transformation between the mass and energy. So from this point all matter is the potential form of energy in the form of static energy. So whenever  we look at any earthly matter we can regard them as the potential source of energy. This energy can be devastating. And with judicial usage it is the boon. When we apply these as boon it follows the discipline and system. As we are now using the light, heat, electric, magnet, kinetic energy, atomic energy etc. with which we are doing all extraordinary works.

All energy has specific laws even in non usable state also. All are related with matters here in the Earth. And the matter is related with the Sun{ origin of Earth and food, photosynthesis] directly or indirectly. So for today’s development of science at least we can adore the matter and the Sun . Now the question will come are these[matters] conscious to feel this respect? This consciousness is related with Atma. Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose had done many experiments in this field. And his Crescograph machine and experiment with a piece of Tin, Plant and frog muscle –proved everything is conscious. But each has different level of expression.

 So all this universe is conscious. [4. http://peaceandloveism.com/wiki/index.php?title=Plant_Consciousness ].Here lies the relation between we, our soul ,universal soul and Paramatma. As the Sun and it’s rays and their powers, the Paramatma and the universal substances are like that.

So any Murti with any matter is energetic , effective and conscious. With this the Rishies’ idea, Bhakta’s prayer makes it vibrant. The chanting ,mantra with proper uttering  can make all the efforts purposeful.

Remember those who do not believe in Murti  besides their own rituals they also follow chanting, Jap , Guru,saints,peer, fakirs,mursed or seniors and some symbols. In India among all religions these  ‘Guru,saints,peer, fakirs,mursed or seniors’ are the most vibrant  souls than the theoretical religions. This have connected the India as one. All Hindu as they respect their own Guru. Again they also respect the Ajmer Serif [we say Him : SULTAN E HIND/ SULTAN E GARIBEE.]and also the others. We believe He is the one most powerful protector of Soul of this country. He was a Fakir and surrounding his territory cow saluting is prohibited. why? this is nothing but His tolerance to the Hindu.

So all are true if used properly.

And nobody is higher than other if he does not follow the truth in his life.

 No religion can demands that in my religions all followers are totally free from corruption, sin, cruelty, traitors. And if so then what is more extra development of  humanity with in them ? That means everybody needs regular practice, regular rituals, and to follow a proper path.

 That means that is dependent on self devotion with  the

SRI SRI ANGKOR WAT MANDIR of Lord Vishnu in Combodia[Comboge]which counrty is today Budhist populated, But they patronise this heritage as their counrty's glory.[ http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/668/] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angkor]

Divine bliss,SENIOR SOULS  and is man dependent.

Then what is the  extra uplift of changing into a particular religion? From every religion one’s development of humanity is possible by self effort if properly done . And it matters little what path somebody is following with Murti/idol  or without Murti.

So it is important to feel the idea behind the idol to every Hindu those they are worshiping. And when the idea is clear

·      the Bhakti,

·      Emotions and

·      Sraddha[respect to all (the most positive manifestation of humanity) ] will appear.

·       These are the essentials for divine life.

·       Which is difficult to impose in an insensible consciousness.

·      But can easily be imposed over His/Her projections which are sensible at any form ,any type.[Which is our heritage for thousand and thousand years.]
Sri Sri Chaitanya dev only 500 years ago therefore gave so much importance to Bhakti[the utmost manifestation of human's emotions] which is not achievable with wisdom, rituals and without the DIVINE GRACE.

INDIA'S PRESENT SITUATIONS AND SOLUTIONS

INDOLOGY- Is a subject. But here it is for talking about the heavenly Earth in coming days............. .....PLEASE BECOME A FOLLOWER & ADVICE OTHERS TO FOLLOW..........

                                                           

1               .Corruption in India is from top to bottom.
2.                 Her transparency index is very low.

3.               To get rid of this disease we need moral education from early child hood with                            Regular practice of Dhyanam and yoga with our                 own    philosophy and Control in self desires.
          These are essential for Indian .This will create  a minimum living style.

4.        we need own innovation of products,
         fuel, technology and   ornaments.
               Thus we will get rid from economic crisis.

5.    Fuel: The main source of draining wealth as this is indispensable
              and fruitfully utilize the alternative source in future development.
              Many nations will support this.
             We have to  proceed with strong opposition.

[The spider web around a light with many insects within.]

                    


                   Therefore all efforts and brains are required to find out its solution.

6.          Product & technology:

            Look at China .How innovative they are . Today almost all the India is filled up with their                  innovation. We have to be steady by ourselves. Without expecting any prizes                  from anybody.

7.                                Ornaments:

             This is ever lucrative to all. Most favor  the gold. But if total intra nation mind setup becomes               like this that most favors the original flower which again genetically engineered to become                 fresh  always then the demand gold will be lower. And rather this will fetch money from                           abroad.

8.      This also demands new generation with new brains                    with self esteem ,confidence, deep knowledge of the Vedas [as this is              the main stream of innovative thoughts] and its                              applications with minimum need for life.

9.            Then only India can grow strong.

10.            In most of the cases we have to wait and do hard work to build up a new generation .

11.         INDIA GOVERNMENT including all political parties of                      all colors who loves India should come forward to make the                       mission successful.
               Otherwise  the misery of India will never go off.

INDOLOGY- Is a subject. But here it is for talking about the heavenly Earth in coming days............. .....PLEASE BECOME A FOLLOWER & ADVICE OTHERS TO FOLLOW..........


This July month is dedicated now a days for great  film actor Uttamkumar in Bengal.  Bengali's mind always keep him as an icon in film's world. Bengali's have some specific icons in every field which makes the imagery of Bengal truly prominent and which is their own. This creates the tune of Bengal's own culture.Here is a brief outline of this:
Poet-Robindranath Tagore. Scientist-Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose. Religion-Sri Ramakrishna.Food-Rice and Fish.Play-Football.Song-Hemanta Mukhopadhyay.Film Actor-Uttamkumar.

The Muslims,The Christian –the true friends of The Hinduism.

INDOLOGY- Is a subject. But here it is for talking about the heavenly Earth in coming days............. .....PLEASE BECOME A FOLLOWER & ADVICE OTHERS TO FOLLOW..........

There is no idol without idealism. When idol is without idealism then the race is worshiping a nothing.

Here in Hindu Samaj the Muslims and Christian  play an important role. They as are the follower of monotheism .They are creating a continuous impact on Hindu.

Though the ultimate stage is Adwita in Hindu or so many Monotheist concepts are here also. But mostly they forget because this Idols worshiping are more colorful and therefore attractive. In Hindu there is no any hard and fast rule to follow any particular path. So most popular is Idol worship

ing. Other religions’ everyday’s life always leading the Hindu to compare their own and neighbors rituals and it’s justifications.

Today Sri Durga puja in Bengal Sri  Ganesh puja in Mumbai all are very popular and expensive.

Many people lives on these arts and theme.

But is this worshiping of God? If a Muslim ask to a Hindu –whom you are worshiping ?The Hindu cannot answer well.

So it is important to feel the idea behind the idol to every Hindu those they are worshiping. And when the idea is clear

·      the Bhakti,

·      Emotions and

·      Sraddha[respect ] will appear.

·       These are the essentials for divine life.

·       Which is difficult to impose in an insensible consciousness.

·      But can easily be imposed over His/Her projections which are sensible at any form ,any type.

Many great souls like Sri Swami Vivekananda, Sri Sister Nivedita, Sri Sachhidananda Saraswati, Sri Aurobindo, Sri Shyamacharan Lahiri  etc. All have described the ideas and explanations of different God and Goddess of India.

 In modern days besides the puja festivals, our duty should be to make remember these ideas not the theme only to our nation and future progeny.

This can draw respect of all religions.

And then the idol becomes the ideal media to reach easily up to the God’s kingdom or the kindom of universal consciousness. Which is a very ancient Hindu procedure ./The procedure of the Humans which is still present in the Hinduism.

So it is the Muslims religion & Christian religion who are acting as a true friends to find out the truth behind the Idols of the Hindu.

Contributions of Indian Muslim religion in Modern Hinduism

INDOLOGY- Is a subject. But here it is for talking about the heavenly Earth in coming days............. .....PLEASE BECOME A FOLLOWER & ADVICE OTHERS TO FOLLOW.........




.In my last article I wrote about the influences of other religions over Hinduism. The eras of Sri Chaitnya Mahaprabhu ,Sri Guru Nanak & Sri  Bhaktaraj Kabir  ,lastly Sri Ramakrishna with other Mahapurusas of this period ,all are the resultant of direct or indirect influences of Muslims in India.

A.Today  I will discuss some other ritual customs of the Muslims which I respect as good and adaptable.
The systems of worshipping the Allah by Islam is  beautiful. And if this is adopted by the other religions in their day to day’s life ,it will be easier to worship their own God / Bhagawan.
 1. The system of UZZU for cleansing before prayer, and when the water is not available is so simple.
2. regular prayer conjointly and in regular interval.
3.to adopt a simple life , not even wearing dress below ankle to avoid the subconscious ego/Ahankar.etc.
4. Asanas for prayer is a regular exercise.

5. No essence /perfume before God.[here may have some debates]

B.. Next I like to discuss about the Sanskrit . We have a misconception that ,this language is only for priest. This is not al all. The word ‘Sanskrit’ itself says it is revised /cultured. Through this  poetic language the high class philosophers, scientists of previous age used to note down the answer of different puzzles, and invention. I will refer:

1.http://www.vedicsciences.net/articles/sanskrit-nasa.html  2.http://sanskritdocuments.org/articles/ScienceTechSanskritAncientIndiaMGPrasad.pdf

3.   https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=9&cad=rja&ved=0CGsQtwIwCA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D3cQ4hIG9w7c&ei=mgHAUZCDKoiRrQeVmIHICA&usg=AFQjCNEZ7jVxFSLaZ9gSe8a1c-OrSDz16Q&sig2=aSdg4yZFXG3lm6R4-6wwdA

So at least we all should know this language to some extent and in our own local language's version.

C. Not only Sanskrit we should know the Arabic also, in Bengali version at least[like wise in other Indian regional languages for those related regions] ;to know the meaning of different Islamic words, pronunciation. This can control many misunderstanding in peoples of different religions.

I have  coined the word 'Indian Muslims' for this, as they even do not know the meaning of all Arabic words.

 In India we all need therefore our own local language,English, and Sanskrit & Arabic in regional languages . If somebody feel more interest he/she can go into the deeper latter.

I’m telling this repeatedly because  today we cannot think ourselves [Hindu ] without our neighbors[Muslims and others].
