ReplyDeleteIndia's Vedic contribution is a reservoir of Vibrant Information and

In the storm of life we struggle through myriads of stimuli of
pressure, stress, and muti-problems that seek for a solution and
answer. We are so suppressed by the routine of this every life style
that most of us seem helpless. However, if we look closely to ancient
techniques we shall discover the magnificent way to understand and
realize the ones around us and mostly ourselves. If only we could stop
for a moment and allow this to happen. May all beings be happy (Loka
Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu)
The ancient Hindu philosophy of keepiing mind and body for the well
being, has entered the managerial, medical and judicial domain of the
world. Today it has found its place as an alternative to the theory of
modern management and also as a means to bring back the right path of
peace and prosperity for the human beings. Let me bow to Indian
Maharishi Veda Vysa with folded hands who helped in removing the
impurities of the mind through his writings on Vedas, impurities of
speech through his writings on puranas, and impurities of body through
his writings on other sacred texts.
The Holy Gita is the essence of the Vedas, Upanishads. It is a
universal scripture applicable to people of all temperaments and for
all times. It is a book with sublime thoughts and practical
instructions on Yoga, Devotion, Vedanta and Action. It is profound in
thought and sublime in heights of vision. It brings peace and solace
to souls that are afflicted by the three fires of mortal existence,
namely, afflictions caused by one's own body (disease etc), those
caused by beings around one ( e.g. wild animals, snakes etc.), and
those caused by the gods (natural disasters, earth-quakes, floods
etc).
Mind can be one's friend or enemy. Mind is the cause for both bondage
and liberation. The word mind is derived from man to think and the
word man derived from manu (Sanskrit word for man).
