Reality of the Asuric Civilization of Harappa and Mohenjodaro

The so-called 'scholars' of Europe characterized the Mohenjo-daro and Harappa 'civilization' as the oldest foundation of Indian civilization and declared it to be more advanced and ancient compared to the Vedic (pertaining to the Vedas) pastoralists—a view that our policy-makers and so-called intellectuals, especially leftist historians, continue to accept to this day.

Murtipuja: An Important Part of Sanatana Dharma

It is one hundred percent false propaganda that there was no murtipuja (deity worship) in Sanatana Dharma (eternal cosmic order). India's oldest murtis (sacred images) do not belong to the Jains or the Buddhists. This propaganda was first started by the British—claiming that Greek kings introduced murtipuja in India—and was later carried forward by the pseudo-Christians of the Brahmo Samaj and Arya Samajists like

When, how much, and how should one drink water?

1. Hardworking people should not drink water for one muhurta (48 minutes) after taking food, and intellectuals for two muhurtas (one hour and 36 minutes). Drinking water during this period dilutes the digestive juices, which prevents proper digestion of food. 2. Immediately after bathing, without drinking water

Did Tulsidas Ji Write Anti-Women Remarks in Ramcharitmanas?

Nowadays, concerning certain chaupais (four-line verse form) of Goswami Tulsidas Ji in the *Ramcharitmanas*, there continues to be widespread turmoil and recrimination—from earth to sky, from India to foreign lands, and from the illiterate to eminent intellectuals. The sole reason for this is the failure to comprehend the Indian shastra (sacred treatise) methodology, treating it instead through a novelistic, narrative, or journalistic approach...

The entire world is flooded with chelas (disciples)

The whole world is overflowing with *chelas* (disciples). Wherever you cast your gaze, there are *chelas* and more *chelas*.

Lord Shri Ram was born this many years ago

Lord Shri Ram was born this many years ago

*Sanatana Sanskriti* (eternal culture) is not time-bound, which is why it is called *Sanatana*. That *shashvata* (eternal) *dharma* (cosmic order and righteous duty) which has come down through tradition across the three periods of time and is beyond time itself, is *Sanatana*. Yet, the intellect of those influenced by modern scientism fails when limited to mere physical yardsticks. Much controversy is generated over the birth era of Shri Ram. But the resolution of this...

Kumbh in Prayag, Haridwar, Ujjain, Nashik: Why and When?

Kumbh in Prayag, Haridwar, Ujjain, Nashik: Why and When?

The supreme and ultimate goal of human life is the attainment of *amritatva* (immortality). In the *Devasura Sangrama* (war between devas and asuras) described in the Puranas, the *Amrita Kalasha* (pot of nectar) emerged from the *Samudra Manthan* (churning of the ocean). Bhagavan Vishnu Himself assumed the Mohini form to administer the *amrita* to the *devas*, who possessed *daivi prakriti* (divine nature). But prior to that, to establish their claim over the *Amrita Kalasha*, between the *devas* and *danavas*, 12 d
