OUR VEDIC RISHIS - Prologue

Our Vedic Rishis are Real People. They are not Mythological Figures. Their Stories are not Myths. Our Vedic Rishis are Preceptors of our Eternal Sanaathana Dharma. They are Seers , Sages , Savants , Mahathmas.

Our Vedic Rishis walked this Earth long ago and some of them are still amongst us.

Whatever our Vedic Rishis did , whether in kindness or in anger , was and still is for the benefit of Humanity. They had access to Brahma, Vishnu, Maheswara, Three Mothers and all Gods. They could take liberty with Supreme ParaaBrahman for the benefit of all of us. Our Rishis spent a Spartan life, dwelt in Ashrams, ParnNasaalas away from cities in forests, on the banks of Holy Rivers and in Himaalayas. They spent their time and energy in trying to understand God and sharing their knowledge with the rest of Humanity-Adhyanam , Adhyaapanam

HE is looking forward to the Day when HE can hand over HIS Duties with satisfaction to HIS Successor Second Brahma, LORD HANUMA (more about HIM in next post). Aadya Brahma is Born in Padma Kalpam and has seen through various Kalpams upto the present SWETHA VARAAHA KALPAM , HE has presided over so far SAPTHA VIMSATHI (27) MAHAA YUGAMS and in HIS 28 th ASHTTAA VIMSATHI MAHAA YUGAM completed SATHYA or KRUTHA , THRETHA , DWAAPARA YUGAMS and is in the middle of PRATTHAMA PAADA OF 28 th KALI YUGAM. AADYA BRAHMA has given us FOUR VEDAS , 108 UPANISHADS, MIMAAMSAS , SAASTHRAAS, SMRUTHIS etc. HE can look back with Joy and High Satisfaction on what HE has acheived so far, There is SUN and MOON to look after us over Day and Night Respectively. There are Grahas to guide our destinies. There are billions of galaxies each with billions of twinkle , twinkle little stars how we wonder what and where they are giving joy for generations of us. HE has directly responsible for Creation of 4 Sages - Sanaka, Sanadana, SanathKumaara, SanathSujaatha.Celestial Divine Rishis cum Musicians NAARADA , THUMBURA and Parvatha .

A MANU and His Consort - SWAAYAMBHOO MANU and SATHAROOPA DEVI . EKAADASA RUDRAAS and also RAAKSHASAAS. In The Beginning During First Sathya Yugam Brahma , Gods , Rushis and all of us were living together, each easily accessible to other , interacting freely and each guiding others. But over the past Yugas Humans have drifted farther and farther, remember Universe is expanding and we are left with only 12.5% visible Universe . We were separated by five worlds between us and SATHYA LOK of BRAHMA and what lays beyond. Our Western friends started thinking of Geo Centric Universe forgetting what our Vedic Rushis Taught us of Helio Centric Universe. Only after This Vedic

Wisdom dawned upon Galileo and Copernicus all of us came back to Helio Centric Universe. AADYA BRAHMA IS Happy and waiting to Guide Humanity if aked for. AADYA BRAHMA has A Long Way To Go Before HE can Rest , HE IS NOT DONE YET - neither am i. OM THATH SATH . AANO BHADRAAHA KRATHAVO YANTHU VISWATHAHA = let noble thoughts come to me.

<TABLE width="80%" align=center border=0><TBODY><TR><TD width="85%">Our Vedic Rishis were Philosophers, Yaajniks, PauraaNiks , Jyothishs , Veda NirNethas , Smrithi Karthas ,Editors of Samhithas , Teachers of Upanishads. They saw, they heard, they remembered and propagated what they saw, heard and remembered about God and Vedic Knowledge to Their Sishya Paramparas and ordained their Sishyas to narrate to others.

Rishis performed Yajnams , Nithya Agnihothram , chanted Holy Manthras , indulged in Meditation , Thapas and Penance for our sake. They were protected by Kings.

Some of our Vedic Rishis were bachelors, some were family men , some were PrajaaPathis, some of them attained the status of Saptha Rishis and quite a few of them were direct descendents of Pithaamaha Lord Brahma , who Himself was the Greatest Rishi of all . Rishis are Munis, Maunis, Maharishis, Brahma Rishis and Deva Rishis. Munis spoke little and heard or saw most. Maunis spent their time in silence.

Viswaamithra is a Maharishi, Vasishtta is a Brahma Rishi and Naarada is a Deva Rishi. Some Rishis stayed at home and some spent time going round the world. Let us remember we are all the descendents of Vedic Rishis ; we carry their DNA. there is a Rishi in every one of us. From a humble Human to Lord Brahma we are all Rishis, but there is a gradation.

1.Thaamasa stage : we do not know and yet we do not know that we do not know; we are under the spell of Maaya. We have to awaken the dormant kundalini.

2.Stage of Ignorance : we do not know , but we know that we do not know and are prepared to learn .

3.Half awakened stage : we know , but we do not know that we know; we need self motivation and need to be reminded by others that we can do it, Like Lord Raama who does not know that He is God and needs a Hanuma, a LakshmaNa to remind Him that He is God.

4.Saathvik Stage : we know and know that we know but are humbled by what little we know and confess that we are still learning and we are life long students.

5.Stage of arrogance : we know , know that we know and go about boasting that we know every thing when still there is an ocean of knowledge in front and we are only picking pebbles on the sea shore.

6.Stage of Supreme Confidence : Stage of Lord Krishna , He is God and Knows He is God and yet behaves like a Human , a Friend , Philosopher , Guide and a Relative.

7.Stage of Oneness With Supreme Paraa Brahman. That leads us to our Modern Rishis about whom we all know and share with others next time

 

OM THATH SATH. MAHAARISHIBHYO NAMO NAMHA.

Brahma got over the disappointment of HIS elder sons SANAKA et al.

HE allotted 11 safe places for Ekadasa Rudras. HE overcame the fear of Raakshasaas. HE is happy with MANU and PRAJAAPATHIS and their families.

It is a very happy day in SATHYA LOKAM. DEVI SAARADA MAATHA is playing DIVINE MUSIC on HER VeeNa. THUMBURA and PARVATHA are playing on Percussion Instruments. PITHAAMAHA BRAHMA is very ecstatic and sInging VEDIC MUSIC. RAAGAM , THAANAM , PALLAVI in a very melodious voice. BRAHMA is tapping ThaaLam rhythmically on HIS Right Thigh. At that moment a BOY is born out of BRAHMA's Right Thigh. The Boy is Child Musical Prodigy from Day One. SAARADA DEVI took the young Boy into HER fold and taught all the finer nuances of Divine Classical Music - vocal and instrumental. SAARADA DEVI presented MAHATHI VeeNa to the Young Boy and BRAHMA taught the Boy all VEDAS etc. The Boy is pleased , proceeded to BRAHMA MAANASA SAROVARin KAILAAS , brought HOLY WATERS and washed the Feet Of BRAHMA and SAARADA DEVI . BRAHMA spontaneously named the Boy NAARADA = one who brought water. NAARA = water . DA = to bring.

As usual BRAHMA wanted NAARADA to get married , but NAARADA was influenced by HIS Elder Brothers SANAKA et al and BRAHMA was again disappointed . NAARADA had go through various Births - Gandharva, Naaradi , a Monkey-faced Hominid , Son of a King and lastly Son of a poor servant maid ; but throughout NAARADA retained knowledge of HIS previous Births and also HIS Musical Talent. NAARADA always is in constant touch with Vedic Philosophers. DAKSHA wanted His Sons Praachetas to marry, but NAARADA intervened and turned their mind away from family life; DAKSHA cursed NAARADA to become THRI LOKA SANCHAARI . That is how NAARADA became a Nomad, constantly on the move preaching Divine Knowledge - a Missionary for Sanaathana Dharma. , a trouble shooter, and timely interceptor of events to set things and people right. Eveybody loved NAARADA , but are wary .

 

NAARADA bestowed the Title of Musicians on Gabdharvas. He wrote NAARADA JYOTHISHA SAASTHRA, NAARADA SMRUTHI, NAARADA BHAKTHI SOOTHRAS and conveyed the essentials of all PURAANAAS to VEDA VYAAS. NAARADA is a DEVA - BRAHMA RISHI, and still LIVES amongst us. PRANAAMS TO NAARADA.

OM THATH SATH .

SRI DHARMA DEV was born from the Chest of BRAHMA . SMT MOORTHY is the Daughter of BRAHMA SRI DAKSHA PRAJAAPATHI and SMT PRASOOTHI DEVI. Hence NARA , NAARAAYAN RISHIS are Paternal Grand Sons of BRAHMA and Maternal Grandsons of DAKSHA (son of Brahma) and PRASOOTHI (d/o Swayambhoo Manu and SathaRoopa Devi) NARA represents JEEVAATHMA . NAARAAYANA represents PARAMAATHMA.

They spent THEIR time doing Thapas in BADARIKAA VANAM, AALYAVANTHAM and GANDHA MAADANAM , Mountain Ranges of BadariNath in Himalayas. NAARAAYANA RISHI Created most beautiful Apsarasa OORVASI = one who is born from HIS thigh.

NAARAAYANA RISHI revealed to NAARADA MUNIthe secrets of Beginnings of Creation , starting with Big Bang -BRAHMAANDA KALPAM , JALA KALPAM , VATA PATHRA SAAYI , VIRAAT KALPAM , PADMA KALPAM and BRAHMA KALPAM ; NAARADA in turn conveyed all this info to VEDA VYAASA, who recorded all this information as BRAHMA VAIVARTHA PURAANAM.

NARA and NAARAYANA are inseparable and Omnipresent as JEEVAATHAM and PARAMAATHMA; THEY were ARJUNA and KRISHNA in Dwaapara Yugam.

NETHER WORLDS

 

There are Seven Nether or Under Worlds. Depending upon the situation , Earth may occupy the position of Upper Worlds as It probably did in Sathya , Threthaa Yugams and to certain extent in Dwaapara Yug, but gradually It may be slipping into a part of Under World System. Sanaathana Vedic Rishis were wise enough to realise this , but Great that They are , They recognized the importance of Our Solar System and gave a Pre eminent status to Sun . But some egoists thought that The Universe is Geo-centric and intolerant of people who thought otherwise. Ultimately wiser counsels prevailed and all people came to accept the Sanaathana Vedic Rishi view point that The Universe is Helio-centric. Om Thath Sath. Om Shaanthi. Now all is not lost in Under worlds - in fact the description, Upper and Under in relation to Earth is only relative.

The Seven Nether or Under Worlds are as follows : -

1. Athalam , 2. Vithalam , 3. Suthalam , 4. Thalaathalam ,

5. Mahaathalam , 6. Rasaathalam and 7. PaathaaLam.

Please note ' Sthalam " is derived from ' Thalam ' .

Sthalam means Bhoothalam = Earth , meaning Earth is neither Upper nor Under and as mentioned before it may fit into either of descriptions.

Yama Dharma Raaja Naraka Lokam , Naaga LOkam are part of these Under Worlds. There are some Great people inhabiting These Under Worlds . Mahaa Bali Chakravarthi is one of the Greatest biding His time there waiting for the time He can assume the post of Indra Padavi.and move to Amaraavathi.

SankarhaNa and Aadi Sesha are there . Aadisesha is in charge of PaathaaLamand is performing the stupendous task of bearing the Universe on His 1000 heads with Mahaa Vishnu resting on His coils. Mahi RaavaNa aka MairaavaNa once ruled over one of these Under Worlds. Om Pithru- Maathrubhyo Namaha Om.

Last and Final - Send off to Pithrus - To Be Continued. Rutham Vachmi , Sathyam Vachmi - Avathu Maam..Saanthi. Maam Rutham Vadishyaami - Maam Sathyam Vadishyaami . Truth , Whole Truth , Nothing But Truth. So Be It.

PITHRU LOKAS ( Worlds Of Ancestors )

 

1. Bhoo Lokam : from the Atmosphere surrounding Earth upto the extent of Earth's Gravitational Influence - This Lokam is populated by Jeevaathmas of Ancestors who still harbour some unfulfilled wishes , waiting for their descendents to fulfill Their wishes. This is especially true upto one year after the demise of The Pithru Dev.

2. Bhuvar Lokam : This is the extent of our Universe upto Kuiper's Belt - includes our Star Soorya Dev , Chandra and Planets . This is where Pithrus await Judgment where They should be settled .

3. Suvar Lokam : This includes our own Milky Way Galaxy = Paala Puntha in Telugu ; Akaash Ganga Maarg ; Kaashi-Raameswaram North-South Corridor - world of Gandharvas,Kinneras , Kimpurushas , Ashtta Vasus etc.

4. Mahar Lokam : Land of Great People waiting for entry into more Holy Places. Includes other galaxies , edge of visible Universe, Dark Matter , Black Holes etc

5. Jano Lokam - Beyond Visible Universe - Majority of our Ancestors , who have undergone final judgment , stay here. But still there is the possibility for Ancestors of Lokams one to five to be born again .

6. Thapo Lokam : Ancestors have attained salvation; They are now Thapasvis, Rushis , Munis etc.

7. Sathya Lokam , Vaikhunttam , Kailaasam are Lokams of Brahma , Vishnu , and Shiva - Shakthi - Ancestors are now Part of Supreme Paraa Brahman Paramaathma, having attained PariNirvaaNa.

To Be Continued Rutham Vachmi , Sathyam Vachmi - Avathu Maam..Saanthi. Maam Rutham Vadishyaami - Maam Sathyam Vadishyaami. Truth , Whole Truth , Nothing But Truth. So Be It.

Balaraama was born to Vasudeva and RohiNi in Vrepalle near Mathura in the house of Nanda and Yashoda while Vasudeva was in prison in Matthura. One week later Lord Krishna was born in Mathura to Devaki and Vasudeva while both of them were in prisonThis year Balaraama's Birth day fell on 28 August 2007, Tuesday and Lord Krishna's Birth day comes on 04 September 2007 , again a Tuesday . Both Balaraama and Krishna belong to Yadu Lineage, hence known as Yadus or Yaadavas. Yadu is the eldest son of King Yayaathi and Devayaani (d/o Sukraacharya). Yadu disobeyed his father Yayaathi and was deprived of Right to Rule. Hence Yaadavas including Balaraama and Krishna could become Kings, but only King makers. Though BalaRaama is elder to Krishna He always yielded to the wishes of Lord Krishna. Balaraama is Aadisesha and ofcourse every one knows that Lord Krishna is a full Avathaar of Lord Mahaa Vishnu. At the same time as Devaki is giving birth to Lord Krishna, Yashoda, in Vrepalle, gave birth to a girl Yoga Maaya (Sakti) Soon enough Krishna was taken to join His Elder Brother BalaRaama where as Yoga Maaya was brought back to prison in Matthura.We are now in 5227 Anno Domini of Lord Krishna's Jayanthi. Though this is known to one and all , let us all remember this day of our Lord Devaki Krishna Vaasudeva, Yashoda-Nanda Krishna later to become RaadhaKrishna . Gopaala Krishna. As promised ( SAMBHAVAAMI YUGE YUGE ) it is time for Lord Krishna to be born again and Bless the Humanity.

OM KRISHNAM VANDE JAGADGURUM.

She is born in Barsaana near Vrindaavanam . Her father is Vrusha Bhaanu,

a local Chieftain; Her mother is Keerthida. Raadha is Raaseswari , born earlier than Krishna , waiting for Her Paramaathma. Raadha is the symbol of Nishkaama Prema , eternal, pure and unblemished. Her real nature is revealed by Nimbaarkar , a Vaishnavite of Dwaitha-Adwaitha Philosophy.

This Love - Bhakthi Maarg is further propagated by Sri Chaithanya Mahaa Prabhu. Love for Krishna is exemplified by Meera Bai , Sathi sakku Bai ,

Pundareeka , Guruji Sreela Prabhu Paada and many many others.

If RukmiNi stands for pious love , Sathyabhaama stands for egoist love , Draupadi stands for unflinching faith , Akroora stands for pure Bhakthi ,

Sri Raadha RaaNi Devi stands for Immortal boundless selfless Love.

Om Raadha - Krishna Lakshmi NaarayaNabhyam Namha Om.

2 . Raadha is the wife of Sootha Adiratha , a charioteer . Raadha is the foster Mother of KarNa , who is proud to be known as Raadheya and Sootha puthra. Raadha , like Yashoda , is motherhood personified.

A motherhood of selfless affection for Her adopted son . What should have been Her happiness when KarNa became King of Anga Raajya and what should have been Her unsurpassed sorrow at the demise of KarNa. Om Shaanthi. Om Shaanthi . Om Shaanthi.

ReNuka is a King's daughter . She married Jamadagni of Bhrigu lineage and bore Him six sons of whom noteworthy are Vatsa and Lord Parasuraama aka Bhaargavaraama. Vatsa is the founder of Sri Vatsa lineage. ReNuka is a noble and chaste lady , but one day She saw a Gandharva couple and for a fraction of a second thought how beautiful the couple are . As a result of that momentary maanasic aberration She was not able to do Her regular domestic chores to a perfection. At the behest of Jamadagni , Parasuraama beheaded ReNuka , but immediately asked Jamadagn to revive ReNuka . During this process of revival Shakthi aspect of ReNuka got separated from Her ordinary aspect . Shakthi aspect became a Goddess , RENUKA DEVI and the other aspect stayed back with her husband Jamadagni. Because of his hasty decision Jamadagni lost his Thapo sakthi and ReNuka became a normal House-wife devoid of Sthree Shakthi. See what happens to even sages when they abuse their women folk Parasurama , in remorse, went away to do penance and wash away His sin. At a later date when descendants of King Kaartha VeeryaArjuna are massacring Jamadagni over a family dispute regarding Jamadagni's Holy Cow , ReNuka maatha was helpless except to call 21 times for Parasuraama to come and help and ended up committing Sathi Herself. This led Lord Parasuraama to wreak vengence on the Kings , going round Earth 21 times and killing the bad Kings starting with Kaartha VeeryaArjuna's descendants.

Thaara Devi is a Goddess . SHE is one of Dasa(Ten)Maha Vidyas along with Nine Other Devis - Maathangi , Bhuvaneswari, BagaLaamukhi, Thripura Sundari aka Thripura Bhairavi, Kamala, KaaLika, Chinmastha , Dhoomaavathi and Shodasi.

Thaara Devi is a Thaanthric Diety of Vajraayana Buddhism of Tibet ( Thri Peettha ).

All These Mahavidyas are Shakthi Forms .

Om Namo Dasavidyanaam Namaha Om.

1. Thaara 1 is wife of Bruhaspathi , Deva Guru. Thaara might have desired to wed Chandra along with His 27 wives , all daughters of Daksha Prajaapathi and Devi Prasoothi. However Thaara had to marry Bruhaspathi , an elderly but a very wise person at the behest of Brahma . Bruhaspathi misbehaved with his brother's wife and had to suffer the consequence in that Thaara was abducted by Chandra and begat Budha(Mercury )

Bruhaspathi was magnanimous enough to adopt Budha and made hima as wise as himself. Budha married Ilaa Devi ( d/o Soorya ) and fathered Puroorava, the originator of Chandra Dynasty.

2. Thaara 2 is tossed about between Vaali and Sugreeva who ever happened to be in power at any given time and she had no choice but to obey . One consolation is her son Angada was made Crown Prince and Heir apparent to Kingdom of Kashkinddha.
