By gaining respect for yourself, you gain the respect of others.

Trust the process. Embrace each chapter, endure each plot and read each page. Don't let anger grow in you. Keep shining brighter when haters try to dim your light. By ignoring the haters, you get stronger, and move faster toward inspiration. By gaining respect for yourself, you gain the respect of others.

Haters want you to conform to them. They want you to do what they want you to do.
You are creating a path where nobody has ever gone with your art, and haters want to hold you back. Refuse to conform to other peoples’ expectations and give up the need for their approval.

Let people leave if they have to. Forgive even if you do not receive apologies. Focus more on yourself. Your life starts with you. Fix yourself if there is something broken in there. Pull your atoms back if they're moving away. Don't let anyone dim your light. Shine even if you're running out of light.

With toxic people you have two choices ; 1) engage them or 2) ignore them.
If you let people stop you from doing what you love, it only hurts you. No one can stop you but yourself. Take what criticism they give with a grain of salt, and keep going, keep shining brighter when someone tries to dim your light.

There will always be someone who doesn’t like you or doesn’t like what you are doing. Do it anyways. The only way you will get better at what you do is to keep doing it, not by quitting.
Focus on your path, not them. Encourage yourself, seek beauty to replenish your soul, and focus on your inner divinity. Be grateful for the many gifts you have been given. Haters can’t discourage you if you do this. Focus on doing such great work that you will turn your haters into your fans.! Love light & peace ✨🕉🌀🌺🍂🌷🍂🌸🌼🍂🌷🌻🌿🌸🍃🌼🌺🍂🌀🕉✨

Hari Om Tat Sat ~ Om Namah Shivaya! ✨🕉🌀🌺🍂🌷🍂🌸🌼🍂🌷🌻🌿🌸🍃🌼🌺🍂🌀🕉✨

Upon reaching Lanka, Hanuman ji saw Maa Sita sitting under a tree in Ashok vatika. She looked frail & tired; he observed that she spent the whole night sitting in meditation of Shri Rama.

Upon reaching Lanka, Hanuman ji saw Maa Sita sitting under a tree in Ashok vatika. She looked frail & tired; he observed that she spent the whole night sitting in meditation of Shri Rama.

At that moment Ravan entered the vatika with many Rakshasis. He threatened Sita & told her that she would be very happy if she would marry him. Hearing this, Sita picked up a blade of grass as a shield & told Ravan that he had no idea about the speed & strength of her Lord’s arrows & that he would meet his end soon because he had got her in Lanka by deceit. Ravan, in his anger, removed his sword & told Sita that she had insulted him & he could even sever her head from her body if she did not listen to him.

Maa Sita replied to him that she preferred to die by his sword than listen to him. She also told him that Shri Rama’s arms were as gentle as a lotus garland but at the same time as strong as an elephant trunk. Ravan moves towards Sita, but is stopped by Mandodari, who tells him it is against the valour of a man to raise his hand on a woman. Ravan then goes home but gives Sita an ultimatum to agree within one month or he will kill her.

Later Hanuman joins his hands & aak Ravan to leave Sita Mata as he came from a very pious family. Shri Rama would forgive him as he is an ocean of pity & never refuses his devotees or those who take refuge in him. He also tells him that Shiva, shri Vishnu & Brahma will not help him if he goes against Shri Rama. He asks him to give up his ego & gives him a lot of examples about Bhakti, knowledge & Vairagya to which Ravan replies in a conceited tone.

Hanumanji then tells him that his death was very near under the hands of Shri Rama, Ravana’s anger knows no bounds. He immediately told his soldiers to kill him, but his courtmen then explained to him that it was unjust to kill a messenger & they should punish him in some other way. Ravan then tells them to put his tail on fire & let him go because only then he can tell his Swami Ramji about Lanka.

Hanuman ji’s tail was tied up with cloth dipped in ghee but so much was consumed that all the cloth in Lanka was consumed as Hanuman Ji went on increasing the length of his tail. All the people of Lanka collected to watch the sight. As Hanuman ji’s tail was set alight he took a very small form & started jumping from one palace on to the other, setting Lanka ablaze. People frantically started running from one place to the other & there was a lot of loss & destruction except for Vibhishan’s house which stood quiet & peaceful watching all the other houses go down in flames. Hanuman Ji did not get hurt by the fire because he was a messenger of Shri Rama. Thus after finishing Lanka he plunged into the ocean! 🐒🌈🌀🐵🕉🌈

Jai Shri Ram ~ Jai Mahavir Hanuman 🕉🐒🌈🐵🌀🌈🙏🏻

Shri Krishna Tames The Serpent, Kaliya!!

Shri Krishna Tames The Serpent, Kaliya!!

Once a huge black serpent called Kaliya lived in the river Yamuna. He poisoned the water of the river with his venom. The people of Vrindavan were very scared of the serpent, who was very strong. So Krishna decided to teach him a lesson.

Once Krishna and his friends were playing by the banks of Yamuna with their ball. The ball fell into the river, where the poisonous hundred and ten-headed serpent Kaliya lived. Kaliya was blinded by hatred and his venom had started poisoning the waters of Yamuna. Krishna dove into the waters to retrieve the ball and encountered Kaliya. He ordered Kaliya to stop poisoning the water and live peacefully, Blinded by rage, Kaliya refused.

Krishna fought the serpent quickly climbed on Kaliya's head. To shake him off, Kaliya tried to coil around Krishna and crush him. He even tried to drown him but Krishna assumed the weight of the entire universe and danced on the naga’s head, soon overpowering him. Krishna then started jumping and stamping on Kaliya's head and the serpent started vomiting poison and was subdued. Kaliya begged Krishna for forgiveness and Krishna ordered the serpent to leave the Yamuna. Kaliya bowed his head and quietly left, and the people of Vrindavan rejoiced.

When Krishna danced on the head of snake Kaliya, all the poison was vomited and the serpent was subdued. When God is revered, the world and all its poisonous fumes recede and you are restored to original health. Make the name and form of your chosen Lord dance upon the hood of your heart. Do not get caught. Save yourself only by calling on God, who is free from sense objects. Hold His hand, and He will pull you safe and keep you steady on the hard ground. ✨🌈🐍🌷👁🔔📿🕉🌀🌸🐚🔆🌈🙏🏻

Guru Purnima (16 July 2019)

Guru Purnima is a day dedicated to teachers. Guru is a teacher, master, a guide, the one who directs the student to the right path. The word Guru is derived from two words, gu and ru. The Sanskrit root gu means darkness or ignorance, and ru denotes the remover of that darkness. Therefore, a Guru is one who removes the darkness of our ignorance.

Many Hindus celebrate the day in honor of the great sage Vyasa, who is seen as one of the greatest spiritual masters in ancient Hindu tradition. Originally, the Veda is one. But Vyasa ji divided the original Veda into four, namely Sama, Yajur, Rig, Atharva, and then again they were explained in different branches like the Puranas and Upanishads. Vedic language and the subject matter are very difficult for ordinary men to understand, therefore, Vyasadeva divided them inti Puranas and Upanishads to allow common men to understand them.

According to Kathopanishad ; tad-vigyananartham sa gurum evabhigachchhet, samit-panih shrotriyam brahma-nishtham.

Means, “In order to learn the transcendental science, one must approach the bona fide spiritual master in disciplined succession, who is fixed in the Absolute Truth. Thus, it has been enjoined herewith that in order to receive that transcendental knowledge, one must approach the guru.”

Spiritual ethos means, no matter what you are doing, whether you are a king or a peasant, there is only one ultimate goal for everybody - liberation. One person who is largely responsible for this, who is of paramount significance in shaping the human consciousness is Shiva. In yogic tradition, it is said that Guru Purnima is the day that saw Shiva become the Adi Guru, or the first Guru. He began the transmission of yoga to the Saptarishis on this day. ✨🌺🌕🌈👁🕉🔔🌿🌻📿🌸🔱💀🍃⌛️💖🌀🔆🐍🐚🌈🌙🌷🎨🌕🙏🏻✨

Have no fear of your future but continue praying and following the guidance that comes to you through repetitive feelings, thoughts, visions and words.

It’s easy to get discouraged and feel let down when things are rough. Everyone has disappointments, everyone has bad days but if you’re firm in faith and trust the Almighty fully, He will find a way out for you and you wouldn’t even remember whatever pain you had to endure. ‬

Have no fear of your future but continue praying and following the guidance that comes to you through repetitive feelings, thoughts, visions and words. When one door closes, another one opens. What you have lost was needed to fall away and will be replaced with something better. The "how" is up to God, he will answer your prayers in the best way. Release the need to control and trust and believe that you are always protected by God.

Expect something wonderful to happen. Even though the circumstances may seem extremely intense and unnerving at times, always stay positive because something wonderful will definitely happen. It may seem like a far fetched thought with so much going on in and around us, but believing and trusting in the infallibility of your creator will bring you the miraculous solutions to your situations.

Be mindful of what you feed your thoughts. When your consciousness changes, your situation changes too. Focus on loving thyself and replace fear and anxiety with faith and surrender. And expect the unexpected. No matter what you may have been through, you are surrounded by God.

Pay attention to your feelings and your thoughts as what you think about, the universe will help you attract that. If you are feeling unsure of what you truly want, ask God through Prayer, Meditation or Ritual to guide you. As you focus your energies towards joy, happiness and peace for yourself and the world, you invite miracles into your life!! Love, light & Peace ✨🌈👁🌷📿🕉🔱💀🌀🌸🌙🐚🌿🌻🗿📿🐍🔆⌛️🌺🔔🎨🌈🙏🏻✨
