Disappeared Palms Joined Salutation & Appeared Handshake

Disappeared Palms joined Salutation (kumbdran Sami)  & Appeared Handshake (Glad to meet you)

 

Shaking hands with others was nowhere in our culture. The arrival of the European traders introduced us to this friendly way of greeting others. These days we shake hands with our elders. But when it comes to taking their blessings we prostrate before them. Diverse meanings are attributed to this action.

 

The custom of mutual salutation is not exclusive to our country. It is shared by other nations as well. While it is true that the mode of performing it is definitely peculiar to our land, it is also true that the basic principle underlying this custom is the same among all nations.

 

When we raise our palms joined together to salute, we only mean to say symbolically that we are together we think alike; our vibrations are in harmony with each other. The action denotes the recognition of soul and soul force.

 

Dharma Shastras have devised certain codes of conduct in saluting others;  inside the temples,

 

1. The Deities should be saluted with both the palms jointed together raise above our heads

 

2. The guru or teacher should be saluted by placing the jointed palms against our forehead

 

3. The father responsible  for our sojourn on this earth, and the king who cares for our safety, deserve to be saluted by placing the joined palms Close to our Mouth and Nose

 

4. Wise men, sages and elders should be saluted with both the palms joined together In front of the chest                 

 

5. The mother takes the best of places in the human body. She should be saluted with both the hands joined together In front of the novel    

 

All these parts of our body play their significant roles. The belly, the heart the nose and the mouth, the head and the overhead are symbols for healthy body, happiness, long life, knowledge and prosperity, and enlightenment respectively, spiritual science too explains that the force generated by the soul in its field of electricity and magnetism is stored in three important centers of the body and made to radiate from here to different parts. The fourth one, above the head, is to denote that the lord is above everything.

 

A person prostrates before his elders in recognitions of the wisdom of experience with him /her due to his age, And so he expresses his humility by indirectly saying, ‘I am like the dust of your feet’. From a spiritual point of view, this custom is meant to seek the blessings from the mouth of the leader.

 

We always feel a kind of vibration in our body which bring you full happiness when you salute or joined palms posture to someone. Right?

 

If you judge my age so and so , Imagine my posture with kumbudu  & Accept as per your age.

Cleanliness is next to Godliness

Cleanliness is next to Godliness 

On the way home after meeting my new prospect , The dirty condition of his house made me to scold him continuously without his knowledge and  I was surprised at how he can able to tolerate such a bad atmosphere consist of complete mess and stinging.

You know unexpectedly even my bedroom have left not cleaned for quite some time which taught me a lesson as “ Pointing out someone’s dirt, Detergent out your shirt stain first” very well saying isn’t?

Put things back where they belong. This may seem like it`s not a simple rule but if we follow it, we will never have to worry about your room being a disaster ever again. If we don't have time, at least make a deal ourself that we will make sure everything is picked up before you go to bed. If we want to pick it up sooner, pick things up after we use it. Or maybe, once a week we could spend about an hour or so to make sure that our room will be nice and clean and organized for the next week. If this gets tiring, we will not want to have to re-clean our room, and then we won't make a mess in the first place

Those who are happiest when cleaning are few and far between. Singing, humming, whistling or turning up the stereo are all great options to keep the beat in our feet and have fun while working. 

Habits are formed by doing and one of the best ways to change a bad habit is to replace it with another action. So if the time spent right when we come home from work is usually filled with email reading and a small nap, try switching it out our cleaning instead. Making the 20 minute time slot routine will build good habits and help us stay on top of the game without feeling like it's a real chore.

Pongalo Pongal Ring Tone Not a Vocal Tone

Pongalo Pongal

Demolish the failed models connected either to our business or even to our lifestyle on Bhogi festival, Apart from the regular live burn out of our superfluous articles. Yes. No, why not today? 

Are the recent young parents teaching their children about the reason behind all the these four day consequent Pongal festivals as follows? Since, the cultural changes happening very fast with reason of No time even to die, Pizza. Burger and readily made, dominancy of electronic materials (using induction stove for preparing sweet Pongal, Pooja with cow picture and Win/Lose money transfer game on the internet. Snapshots are becoming mandatory) 

On the First day of Pongal – Evil spirits are driven out of the home and burnt on bonfires * On the second day of  Surya Pongal - honors and Thanksgiving to Sun God * On the third day of Mattu Pongal – Honoring Cattle * On the fourth day –Children are educated  as a mark of savings by giving them some money with blessings.

The festival covers all living beings including humans, cattle and birds and crops. Even the insects are not overlooked and offered rice and flour, in the form of 'Kollam', on the entrance way of the houses. Dad our colourful Kollam powder deserted all insects?

My close buddy told me during our chat that his naughty son didn’t want to shout Pongalo Pongal at the time of the Pongal bubbles out of the Pongal pot instead of he sets a “Pongalo Pongal “ringtone and played. What a technological mischief?

When a film distributors are using various methods to promote their product to get into their so called 100crore club. Politicians are taking up the Sugarcane free distribution to their territory as a diplomatic process of advertisement for their future,  anyhow the poor sugarcane reseller business might have taken into task & might have cursed them.

Present days children are more judgmental & arguments and not willing to adopt or follow anything which is not proven or not rightly shown the reaction. Hence, we should know more clearly about the one we want to educate to our children. Shall we..

 Wish you a  very happy Pongal.
