A secret to happiness is letting every situation be what it is instead of what you think it should be, and then making the best of it.

A secret to happiness is letting every situation be what it is instead of what you think it should be, and then making the best of it. ✨👁✨ Namaste beautiful Souls. It’s time for Today vibes 🌀🔱🌀 There will always be ups and downs in life, but ultimately, at the end of the day, that’s what makes each of us who we are. Which is why you have to learn to accept both the good and the bad that falls on your plate with grace. Because everything in life happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. For everything you lose, you gain something else; and for everything you gain, you lose something else. You don’t have to like it, but it’s just easier if you do. So pay attention to your outlook on life. Every day you can either regret or rejoice; it’s your choice. When you choose to rejoice , life opens doors to amazing experiences you will likely remember forever. So No matter what happens, do your best and smile. You won’t enjoy your life if you don’t enjoy your challenges. Great challenges make life interesting, and overcoming them makes life meaningful.! Love light & peace ✨👁🌀🔱💀🐍⏳🌙🎨📿🕉🐚🔔🙏✨

DURGA- SHIVA'S ETERNAL SHAKTI, ULTIMATE SYMBOL OF WOMAN EMPOWERMENT

DURGA- SHIVA'S ETERNAL SHAKTI, ULTIMATE SYMBOL OF WOMAN EMPOWERMENT

And just as great an enigma as Shiva is, so too is Parvati.
It was She who was Sati, in a previous life. She it is, who is Shakti, the Goddess of power, in eternal wedlock with Shiva, making Him Shaktiman, the wielder of all the power there is in the Universe. She is Durga Bhawani. She is always present in His presence. Even if that means being reincarnated from one lifetime to another.
( from the book SHIVA, The Ultimate Time Traveller.

A damaru is a small drum, is instrument of Shiva.

A damaru is a small drum, which is shaped like an hourglass. It is popularly known as the instrument of Shiva. Shiva is also called Damarudhari. Traditionally, it is used by the Kapalikas, an ancient sect of Shaivism, and Tantrik Sadhus and Babas, who worship Shiva. They use it to announce their visit or to attract attention, when they make rounds in the streets.

In Tibetan Buddhist traditions, damaru is part of a collection of sacred implements and musical instrument was adopted from the tantric practices of ancient India. These reached the Himalayas from the 8th to 12th century, persisting in Tibet as the practice of Vajrayana flourished there, even as it vanished.

Damaru was first created by Shiva to produce spiritual sounds by which this whole universe has been created and regulated. The sound of Damaru is the sound of Omkara. The beat of Damaru symbolizes the sound of OM, the all pervading sound, which also has the only one beat without any variations, that is existing since the infinity. When Shiva plays Damaru, he playes Omkara, and when he dances with it, he is called Natraja. The damaru generates spiritual energy. Sanskrit language was recognized by the drumbeats of the Damaru and Shivas performance of the cosmic dance of tandava.

Shiva is believed to be the progenitor of all sounds, languages, music, and vibrations in creation. The damaru symbolizes his connection with them. The two triangles in the damaru represent the Purusha and Prakrithi, and their union, which results in creation (srushti), movement (chaitanyam), speech (vac), and sounds (shabda). When they are separated, everything comes to a standstill, and the mind lapses into total silence. Damaru also symbolizes Jiva, the embodied soul, who is helplessly caught in the play of Shiva and moves according to his will and force. He is active as long as Shiva moves his hands, but goes into rest when he is withdrawn. The two triangles in the damaru represent the mind and the body, while the chord represents the twin states of birth and death, to which it is bound. Just as the being is bound to the cycle of births and deaths, the damaru is bound to the chord. ✨👁🕉⌛🎵🌙️🌀💀🐍🔱📿🐚🔔🎨🎶✨🙏🏻✨

Holi, the festival of colours marks the victory of the good over the evil.

Holi, the festival of colours marks the victory of the good over the evil. It teaches us lessons about the greatness of God, That God is alone is the Supreme Truth, Devotion to God has tremendous powers. Faith can create miracles. Ego, pride, anger, hatred and jealousy will ruin mankind.

Prahlada was born to demon king Hiranyakashipu and his wife Kayadu. While he was in his mother’s womb, he had heard about the greatness of Lord Vishnu.

Hiranyakashipu was a tyrant of sorts who had been granted a boon that made him invincible. According to the boon, he couldn’t be killed either by a man or an animal; he couldn’t be killed either during the day or at night; he couldn’t be killed neither on land nor up in the air; he couldn’t be killed neither indoors nor outdoors and by weapons made by man. He relished the fact that none could kill him. He detested other’s spiritual inclination and hence forced his subjects to chant his name.

On learning that his own son Prahlada was spiritually inclined towards Lord Vishnu, he made several attempts to dissuade him. He tried to poison his son, get him trampled by elephants and made various attempts to eliminate him.

But Prahlada survived even the deadliest of attacks. So as a final resort, Hiranyakashipu reached out to his sister Holika who was granted a boon that could save her from fire. He made Prahlada sit on her lap as she occupied a pyre that was meant to be burnt. Prahlada survived even after being set on fire but Holika was reduced to ashes despite the boon.

Hiranyakashipu couldn’t believe his eyes. But a tyrant that he was, he refused to surrender to his son Prahlada’s devotion for Lord Vishnu. He dared the little boy to prove God was omnipresent. He asked if God existed in the pillar of his palace. The little boy confidentially said “yes”. In a fit of rage, Hiranyakashipu broke the pillar with his mace and to his horror found a half-man-half-lion being pouncing on him ferociously.

It was Lord Vishnu in his Narasimha avatar. The Mighty lord held Hiranyakashipu on his lap, tore his torso apart with his nails at twilight on the threshold of a courtyard thereby meeting all the mandatory parameters that could kill the demon king. ✨🦁📿🕉🌷🐚🌀🙏🏻
