Kashi, the city of light, stands as a testament to creation, destruction, and ultimately, redemption. This ancient city, bathed in the sacred waters of the Ganges, has a story as old as time itself, intertwined with the divine narratives of Shiva Purana. From Lord Brahma and Vishnu's delusion to Kaal Bhairav's wrathful origin, Kashi has witnessed a play of cosmic forces that ultimately underscored Shiva's supremacy as the lord of creation, destruction, and liberation. The city houses the famed Kashi Vishwanath Jyotirlinga, a beacon of spiritual energy believed to be the embodiment of Shiva himself. It is said that death in this sacred city grants moksha, liberation from the cycle of life and death.Contact, follow and support my work - all in one place: https://linktr.ee/NamaskarIndiaBibliography:Eck, D.

This episode explores the nakshatras, the fundamental concept of the Vedic astrological system. Nakshatras refer to the division of the sky into 27 equal segments, each named after a prominent star. Aligning with the 12 zodiac signs, nakshatras are considered a cosmic clock, with one day passing as the moon moves through each nakshatra, repeating every 27 days. Bibliography: Padmanabham, T.

In this episode, we will discuss the difference between sidereal and tropical zodiac systems used in Indian and Western astrology respectively. The sidereal zodiac is based on stars and the tropical zodiac is based on the sun's position. We will also cover the precession of the equinoxes, which causes the spring equinox to move along the orbit and creates a difference between these two zodiacs over time. Bibliography: Campion N.

In this episode, we explore the roots of astrology and how it is based on the position of celestial bodies with respect to stars. However, scientific evidence suggests that the gravitational forces exerted by distant stars and planets are not significant enough to have an impact on human personality traits or life events. Studies have failed to demonstrate any patterns or correlations between astrological charts and real-life outcomes. We also discuss the psychological techniques used by astrologers to persuade people of their abilities and how our tendency to seek out patterns can reinforce our beliefs in astrology. Calculations: Gravitational force between a person on Earth & planet Jupiter- G = 6.67430 x 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2: This is the gravitational constant. m1 = 70 kg: This is the mass of the person on Earth. m2 = 1.898 x 10^27 kg: This is the mass of Jupiter. r = 7.78 x 10^12 meters: This is the average distance between the person on earth and Jupiter.

In this episode, we explore the cyclical nature of time in Hindu mythology and its unique differences from other religions. We delve into various time units described in ancient Indian texts, from microcosm to macrocosm, and explain the concept of relativity of time in different realms. We also discuss modern science's definition of time, theories predicting multiverse and the discrepancy between scientific estimates and those described in Hindu scriptures. Tune in to discover the remarkable imagination and intellectual depth of our Indian ancestors as they contemplated time scales spanning trillions of years. Calculations: According to Hindu scriptures, we are in Brahma's 51st year's, 1st Kalpa's, 7th Manvantar's, 28th Chaturyuga's, Kalyuga. The Gregorian calendar dates the beginning of this Kalyuga to 3102 BCE. And Brahma's total lifespan is 100 Brahma years. What is Brahma's total lifespan in human years? What is the universe's current age in human years? Satya Yuga = 1.728 million years Treta Yuga = 1.296 million years Dwapara Yuga = 0.864 million years Kali Yuga = 0.432 million years Total duration of one Maha Yuga cycle = 4.32 million human years One day of Brahma (consisting of 1000 Maha Yuga cycles) = 4.32 billion human years One complete day and night of Brahma = 8.64 billion human years 1 Brahma year = 360 Brahma days and nights Total age of Brahma (100 Brahma years) = 360 days/year x 100 years x 8.64 billion years/day = 311.04 trillion human years Total age of the universe (one Maha Kalpa) = 311.04 trillion human years 1 Manvantar = 71 Chaturyugas 1 Kalpa = 14 Manvantar Current age of the universe = (50 x 2 x 360 x 1000 x 4,320,000) + (6 x 71 x 4,320,000) + (27 x 4,320,000) (4,320,000 x (0.4 + 0.3 + 0.2)) + 5124 = 155.52 trillion human years Bibliography: Debroy, B.

We like our ideas of God. We can parse them, explain them, and make our own decisions based on them. In fact, our idea of God is all we really have at all. Since all we really have is our idea of God, it dismantles and debilitates any attempts we might make to lay claim to God, including our claims to faith.

The Rigveda used the epithet Viswakarma to refer to a supreme god. In the Rigvedic hymns 10.81 & 10.82 Vishwakarma Sukta, he is described as all-seeing, with eyes, faces, arms, and feet on all four sides, as well as wings. He represented ultimate reality as well as the enigmatic creative force shared by all gods, living things, and inanimate objects in the universe. Since the beginning of time, he has served as the universe's architect and divine engineer.

Hiranyagarbha, the source of all that is manifest and unmanifest; said to be the god of gods and that which connects all things, creates all things and where all things return. It is mentioned in Hiranyagarbha Sukta, a set of ten Shlokas in the 121st Hymn of the Rig Veda's 10th Mandala, suggesting a single creator deity, identified in the hymn as Prajāpati.

The Vedas are the religious texts which inform the religion of Hinduism. The term veda means “knowledge” in that they are thought to contain the fundamental knowledge relating to the underlying cause of, function of, and personal response to existence. The Vedas are thought to have always existed and were discovered by sages in intense states of meditation, rather than being thought to have been revealed to a specific person or people at a particular historical moment. As a result, Hinduism views the Vedas as Shruti, or "what is heard," as opposed to other texts like Ramayana or Mahabharata that are called Smritis, or "what is remembered."

The Nāsadīya Sūkta after the incipit ná ásat, or "not the non-existent", is known as the Hymn of Creation. It is a collection of 7 Shlokas from the 129th Hymn of the Rig Veda's 10th Mandala. It begins and ends with questions about creation. It does not say that God created the universe, the stars, the sun, the moon, the earth, the plants, the animals, and humans, but rather asks how anyone could know how and when creation occurred, because everything and all beings, including the Devas or Gods, would have appeared only after the universe existed!

Hindu mythology is a large body of traditional Hindu narratives found in Sanskrit literature such as the epics Mahabharata and Ramayana, the Puranas and Vedas, Ancient Tamil literature such as the Sangam literature and Periya Puranam, and several other works and religious regional literature of South Asia. Rather than a single consistent, monolithic structure, it is a collection of diverse traditions developed by different sects, people, and philosophical schools in different regions and times, which are not necessarily held by all Hindus to be literal accounts of historical events, but are taken to have deeper, often symbolic, meaning, and have been subjected to a complex range of interpretations.
