When we talk about Vedas, we hear lot many jargons/ concepts like – Shruti, Smruti, Puranas, Caturvedas, Rig, Yajur, Sama, Atharvana, Vedantas, Vedangas, Shiksha, Vyakaraņa, Chandas, Nirukta, Jyotisha, Nyaya, Dharma Shastras, Brahmanas, Aranyakas, Kavya and so on so forth. What are all these? All they are one and the same or different? Are they part of Vedas or out of them? Are Vedas meant for one particular religion or caste? Can they be chant by others? Lot many doubts/ clarifications/ hesitations ponder in our mind. In early days, teaching media were limited. The youngsters learned ...

Among the names Lalitā is the best. Among the mantras, Shreevidyā is the best. And in Shreevidyā , the Kādividyā is the best. The Sreepura is the greatest among cities; among the Shreevidyā Upāsakās, Paramashiva is the prime devotee. One is attracted to Shreevidyā only in his last birth. Those who take to this worship will have no more births. It requires an extraordinary merit to get initiated in Shreevidyā. Can anyone see objects without vision or assuage their hunger without taking food? Similarly, no one can attain Siddhi, or please the deity, without the help of Shreevidyā. ...

The title of this book as “Śrī Devī Gīta” might be surprising. Generally, when we hear the name ‘Gīta’, immediately anyone, almost everyone, will remember Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, advised by Bhagawan Krishna to Arjuna – read in Mahabharata. The Purana, called Sri Devi Bhagavatam contains 12 Skandams. In this text – in the 7th Skanda 10 chapters from 31 to 40 are called “Sri Devi Gita” – a very low profile – not so popular sacred text. The aim of this book is to bring this text to limelight. The verses are provided both in Samskrutam and English with lucid meaning in ...

A Guide Book for all – Demystifying Myriad Global Financial Terms The present day world is full of jargons. Though most of the concepts are known to us, the jargon or acronym seems to be new to us. For instance, the latest buzzword in Management is ‘GRC’. The very word scars the readers. But when expanded as “Governance, Risk Management and Compliance”, we feel relaxed – Oh! It is so simple. Again most part of the world uses ‘Cheque’ as a banking instrument. U.S. has the habit of having its own method of spelling the words and it uses ‘Check’ in the place of Cheque in ...

When we hear the word avataaram (incarnation), we will immediately think of Dashaavataaram of Lord Vishnu. But Sri Devi also has taken lots of avataarams. The origin (birth) of most of the Gods we hear about are found in Puranas. Sometimes the end is also seen – for instance, Rama, Krishna, etc. However, the origin of lords Vishnu, Shiva and Devi have not been mentioned anywhere in puranas and all – in that sense they are unique. Sri Devi has also taken many an avataaram. In Sahasranaamaa, Trishatee, Ashtotram and all we have different names for Sri Devi. But an avataaram is different ...

An exposition of Similarities in Lalitā Sahasranāma with Soundaryalaharee, Saptashatee, Viśṇu Sahasranāma and Shreemad Bhagavad Geeta. There are lot of Purāṇas and Stotras about every God/ Goddess in Hindu religion. This provides liberty to the devotees to imagine the God/ Goddess in the form of his/ her choice. However, when these Purāṇas and Stotras are studied in depth it is very clear that they all convey the same sense. In one place it is Nārāyaṇa and in another place it is Nārāyaṇī. Somewhere it is as Ardhanārīshvara – i.e. The left half of Śankara is ...

GRC – Governance, Risk and Compliance — is an umbrella term for the processes and practices that organizations implement to meet business objectives. This is a relatively a new jargon, probably a decade+ old. However, GRC management has come a long way from binders full of documentation, unwieldy spreadsheets, and other manual processes. Rather than just a catchall term for unconnected management activities, truly integrated GRC — sometimes referred to as integrated risk management — takes a holistic, enterprise-wide approach to understanding risks and opportunities to better ...

‘A’– none, ‘dvaita’ – dual – Advaita means there is no-two or non-duality. This theory was propounded and globalised by Sree Adi Sankara. He also established the Shanmata, six sub-religions of Hindu religion. Shakta – the worshipers of Shakti, is one of those six sub-religions. When advaita is expounded by Sree Adi Sankara in all his teachers, works, discourses, etc., this book tries to address the advaita principles in Shaakta religion. Again there are very many texts relating to Shakti and hence owned by Shaakta religion. Dealing with all those in one work is humanly ...

Not only Shakti is responsible for creation, it is also the agent of all changes. Shakti is cosmic existence as well as liberation, its most significant form being the Kundalini Shakti, a mysterious psycho-spiritual force. Shakti exists in a state of svaatantreeya, dependence on no one, being interdependent with the entire universe. In Puraanas, for story sake, Shakti is denoted as consort of Shiva and again she is mentioned as sister of Vishnu. But, in the Shankaranaaraayana form the left part of Shiva is Naraayana. Again in the form of Ardhanaareeshvara the left part of Shiva is Shakti. ...
