The Majic beads

In ancient India the name of the rudraksh bead has been intertwined with myth, faith and folklore; its healing powers is said to be phenomenal. Over the years this belief had considerably died down until recent scientific studies reconfirmed its potency. Dr. Subhas Rai of renowned Indian Institute of Technology in Varanasi has published an ace paper on rudraksh based on meticulous research. Dr. Rai has proved that the rudraksh has dominating electromagnetic, as well as paramagnetic together with inductive properties. This explains the healing capabilities of the bead.

The Place where he used to perform Yagnas The Ancestral House of Baba Lokenath. Great souls have come to mankind to uplift their lives and the way to lead it. They have always inspired mankind to master the art of living in a way to stay close to purity and happiness. Sri Loknath Baba was one such eminent personality who still glitters in million of Bengali hearts. Amongst a few – a very few semi-legendary Hindu saints, who marked their names all across India and even abroad, Sri Loknath Baba was the one.

His father Ramnarayan Ghosal and mother Kamaladevi soon realized that their little Loknath was a bit too different from the rest ...

Communal Amity

The present state of affairs in our society is no doubt a curse to the mankind . This is certainly due to our disloyalty to God. We have d4eviated from the noble path of humanity. The onset of Ramzam month is an excellent opportunity to realize and fulfill the objectives of mankind. Like other Islamic festivals, Ramzan is observed for full enlightenment. It stresses the need to share social responsibilities through sacrifice by keeping restr4aibns on all our senses. It is the right time to challenge the Muslim masses for sharing responsibilities to eradicate social and moral crisis prevailing in the society. The crucial need of the present day India is stalwarts like Maulana Abul Kalam Azad for whom books were his life, Hindustan his heart and Islam his spirit. It is heartening to see that the government and some active organizations have realized the importance of the role of Islamic luminaries for that they have invited Fatwas on some major national communal issue our Islamic scholar...

Face of Man – The Mirror Of Life

Face of man looks beautiful, when it expresses the innermost innocence. Man sees things through his eyes. Not only he sees, he observes; the more he feels the thirst to know, more he wants to express. This is all what he wants. He displays himself in this very unique way. Thus the mannerism grows, with the growth of life. This is life – behaviors bring successive kinship within our social aspects. This is what the light of a man's life is all about. The reverse identifies ill-humanism. Admirations depend on dealings. Dealings create a man. But in treatment many of us forget how to behave. We tend to forget that everybody expect the right blend of humanism. But privation is a meanness that causes damage to the sweet harmony between us. Although we have a good faith, a belief and maintenance in ourselves as a nature, we sometimes forget ourselves and make damage right in the frontline. We forget the truth, which is the "Rock Of Gibraltor". There may be discord; that does n...

Importance of Id-ul-Zuha

As is the law of nature that nothing can be gained without significant sacrifice. Similarly for all sorts of goals to gain, one has to initially put some input as sacrifice in the hope of likelihood reward. The basic philosophy of Islam rests on this very significant concept of sacrifice, what in our own term we call “Qurbani”. The purpose of all the time prophets was to propagate the way of practicable goodness amongst the people where every prophet was destined to put maximum sacrifice and utmost restrain. The responsibility of all the Muslim has been put by Allah to practice and propagate the lessons of all good senses very pridely all in the objectives of supreme command. The yearly celebration of this great festival of Id-Ul-Zuha reminds us of spirit of such pious mission in which prophet Ibrahim was directed to sacrifice his best and most sulted valuable whereupon he finally chose his own son to fulfill the directive. On accepting this great sacrifice however the son was replaced...

Universal temple at Chennai

THE ABOVE TEMPLE IS THE OLD TEMPLE. BELOW ARE THE PICTURES OF THE NEW TEMPLES! IS IT NOT BEAUTIFUL? Swami Vivekananda on his triumphal return from the West was requested by the devotees in Madras (now Chennai) to start a Math here. To fulfil their earnest desire Swamiji sent his brother-disciple Swami Ramakrishnananda to Madras in March 1897 and thus Sri Ramakrishna Math,Madras, came into existence. After reaching Madras, the first thing Swami Ramakrishnananda did was to set up a small shrine for Sri Ramakrishna at a rented house. He lived there and led a life of renunciation service and austerities. Slowly he built up the institution as the present Sri Ramakrishna Math which is a hub of muiti-pronged service activities. This is the oldest centre of the Ramakrishna Order in the South.Sri Ramakrishna Math completed hundred years of its service in 1997. The shrine of Sri Ramakrishna set up in 1917 in the present Math was clearly too small to accommodate the growing number of devotees....
