Christs -The World Teachers!

The month of December brings in with it the mood of festivity and celebrations! Amidst the chilly wintry air and snow topped homes, our hearts leap up with the joy of upcoming celebrations! The streets, the houses and huts are decorated in magnificent ways with glittery ropes and bells. The whole world seems to stand still and live the moment completely for the very first time! Yes! That’s Christmas. “The advent of the savior, the Messiah who saved the world from sins” That’s what the whole world speaks about in the Christmas season! But is that all? Was Christ just some kind of magical man who performed mumbo-jumbo? No but unfortunately He is presented a lot like this. Christ was a world teacher. His philosophy, His immense mercy for every creature of this world is exemplary. Even when He was going to be crucified, He asked for their forgiveness from the Supreme Father! His life was His materialized maxim! We failed to propagate Him the day when we started miracle mongering in His name! We failed to follow Him the day He was crucified! We failed Him, when His own apostle betrayed Him! We are still failing Him everyday whenever we fail to follow His dictum. His words are the condensed forms of His own life experiences. To follow Him is to follow God. To follow Him is to follow the path of spirituality. “Christ” means the anointed one! Over the ages, Christs have taken advents on the face of earth in the form of Rama, Krishna, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammed, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, Ramkrishna Paramhansadev and Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra! Although there might be apparent differences due to time, place and circumstances but basically they all speak of the One true God. They all stress upon respecting the past prophets and all of them stress upon following the preset advent! If we love Christ, we should be ready to follow His words no matter what. Because, “I am the way, the truth, the life. None can come to the father but through me.” To follow the dictum of Christ is the only way to celebrate Christmas! Let us all strive to be what Christs have taught us over the ages. Let us all, irrespective of caste, creed, gender, nationality or race, try to be the true human beings first. Christ came to teach us humanity. To teach us love and peace. By following His footsteps we can be the Man He wanted us to become! Vande Purushottamam!

CHRISTMAS MESSAGE 1948 “This day is verily the day of Him who is ours, who came on earth to remove the misery of the world— the birth-day

of that Divine, the Great whom we have seen off— in sorrows, sufferings, woe and anguish in uncared neglect and bleeding tyranny.”

COMPANION ON THE WAY (Chalar saathi, translated by Kerry Brace)

WILLINGNESS TO WORK THROUGH LOVE From love constancy, joyfulness and willingness to work arise; and from aversion come depression, inactivity, sadness and lack of peace! 8

OPTIMIST AND PESSIMIST It is the optimist who finds a golden opportunity for progress and delight within trouble, danger, obstruction, and sorrow! But the pessimist at once finds within all good inability and impossibility— ineradicable suffering of misfortune! 9

FAULT-FINDING—OBSTACLE TO UPLIFTMENT If you want to become elevated, bid farewell to fault-finding forever; whatever good quality you see in a person, think of that, speak of that, and discuss it; if you can, be careful— that no one’s fait does any kind of damage in you! 10

Surrender to the Supreme is the bliss that beams benign autocracy of automatic love and service. Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra

FAULT-FINDING If fault is to be found, it has to be contemplated; it has to be brought out by thinking it over; and with that, one is to keep awake a sense of irritation or hostility, and in doing this, just such feelings will be stored in the brain; you will find how after some days you are acting out those faults; so be carefulâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; of fault-finding, of contemplating faults, and of irritation and hostility! 11

EMPTYING-OUT THE FAULT And if you have at all found fault with anyone, and it remains stored in your head,â&#x20AC;&#x201D; enquiring into its cause and circumstances, properly understanding how it became possible, with a feeling of sympathy empty out from your head what is stored there in such a manner that it becomes abnormal to you for this kind of thing to happen again! 12

HYPOCRISY Hypocrisy by goading neighbours to an illusion blurs the door of prosperity ! 13

DISCERNING OF CHARACTER Talk, thought, dealings and activities declare, redeem and indicates what he really is and, what he can get ! 14

Knavish fools are generally ungrateful, unserving and selfish conceited critics with a philosophy of negation ! Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra

ALOCHANA PRASANGE (CONVERSATIONS WITH AN INDIAN SEER SRI SRI THAKUR ANUKULCHANDRA) Dated : 7/10/1939

(Sri Sri Thakur in the midst of the discourses)

n the course of the conversation, Sri Sri Thakur said --- Today while I was in the lavatory, a variety of

thoughts came up in my mind --- now I don't remember them. As if someone was saying all those things to me in quick succession. This happens often. The topic of "Prophets" came up. About fulfillment of the past prophets, Respected Keshtoda said --- Only in Thakur Ramkrishnadev (amongst other past prophets), this is distinctly and very prominently observed. I feel that this side was not that much prominent in Lord Buddha. Hence gradually he (Lord Buddha) was left out and there started a steady decline in the effect of Buddhism. Sri Sri Thakur: There is nothing like "leaving out!" The Blasphemy which is going on against Lord Buddha and Hazrat Muhammed and also other prophets should be redressed. Isn't there any book written by Lord Buddha Himself? (Facts about His ideology) should be drawn from there. I have heard that Lord Buddha respected the Varna dharma (the science of nourishment of hereditary instincts). He has spoken so many times about the Aryan truth repeatedly. His whole ideology is based on the Aryan culture (Please note: here "Aryan" does not just mean any particular race of the world. According to Sri Sri Thakur, anyone who walks on the path of life and growth, anyone who loves his own existence and also cares about the existence of others is an Aryan). Keshtoda: 'Dhammapada' is written by Lord Buddha. But it is difficult to find any such evidence (from there). There are no such instances which show His support of Varna Dharma. Although there is neither any evidence which shows that He was against it. Sri Sri Thakur: That too has a problem. Maybe only some of His sayings have been inscribed which were spoken to particular persons. Based on that, His individual opinions cannot be inferred about every subject. To be continuedâ&#x20AC;Ś Allurement that serves not to progressive profit, is a lure to Satanic fall. Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra Page 8

COMMITMENT TO CHRISTIAN RENEWAL (A SEER FROM THE EAST PROVIDES PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS TO THE PROBLEMS FACED BY MODERN CHRISTIANITY)

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I

f you come to me to leave Christ, then I cannot

help you and I doubt if anyone can." Sree Sree Thakur gazed steadily at the American visitors. "But if I can help you understand and follow Christ more effectively, I am prepared to try." "But Thakur, it's not even a question of leaving Christ - He's already become irrelevant. While science, education - society at every level has moved on, Christ has just been left behind. He's no longer pertinent to life," one of the American servicemen replied. 'We've come to you to hear your answers for life because we feel that Christ is no longer the hope of the world..." "...but I believe that Christ is the ONLY hope of the World!" Thakur interjected. The American visitors were startled. It was the middle of September in 1945. World War II had ended and while waiting in Calcutta to be repatriated, a small group of American servicemen had taken the overnight train trip to North Bengal to visit Thakur. They had gone partly out of curiosity, partly out of boredom, and partly because they had heard that this great Hindu saint might inspire them through some ancient, esoteric wisdom of the East. "I think the very existence and evolution of humanity is in danger if we have no Christ, "Thakur continued. "What do you mean by that?" one of the young men asked.

''There are many people who do good work, are religious, and don't even know Jesus." Thakur's reply was prompt: "But I think, if man is not tied by the noose of God, then he inevitably becomes entangled in the noose of Satan - directly or indirectly. There are times when the devil moves in the garb of piety. Then he'll say: 'Come on, what's the need of accepting Christ? It's enough if you do good work and remain in the path of religion.' "However reasonable this may sound, and even if someone moves sincerely with this idea, sooner or later, his passions begin to play tricks with him. The interesting thing is that the person is unable to recognize the influence of the passion. How can he? He has so completely identified himself with that urge that he feels he himself is the passion. "And that is why the Scriptures speak so absolutely about the necessity to take the shelter of the Lord. 'I am the Way, the Truth, the Life. None come to the Father but by Me' (John 14:6). This, I believe, is the irrevocable, uncompromising fact!â&#x20AC;&#x153;

WHY SHOULD EVERY CHRISTIAN BECOME A SATSANGEE? Surya Prakash Mohapatra Global-head, Talent Transformations Wipro BPS

ecember is the holy month of the advent of Lord

Jesus Christ. This month is marked by great euphoria, fellowship, and celebration. People decorate their homes with lights and Christmas trees. Christmas Carols are sung all over. And on the 25th of December, Christians all over the world celebrate Christmas with joy and jubilation. Churches, Cathedrals, and Chapels come alive with congregations and communions for prayer and mass service. People offer mass service to remember that Jesus sacrificed his life for the humankind. The December month comes again. What is the noblest thing every Christian should do this Christmas beyond the mass service, prayer and celebration? How can the Christmas jubilation culminate in the emancipation of the mind and the soul? In the true sense, I believe this Christmas, every Christian should begin a new journey of emancipation and awakening. They should rise above the materialistic world and make an attempt to realize the divine love and mercy of Lord Jesus in their heart. They should begin their journey to become a genuine Christian who is charged with the holy spirit of Jesus. Lord Jesus is not in flesh and blood today. Then what is the best way to realize his love and mercy in his absence? Since we cannot see Jesus in person, how can we see his manifestation? Yug Purushottam (Prophet of the Age), Sree Sree Thakur Anukulchanra has provided very simple and practical answers to the aforesaid questions. According to Sree Sree Thakur, we can see Jesus through another Ideal Man who loves him with his body, mind, soul and entire being. By serving and loving such a man we can realize the mercy of Jesus. Since we cannot see Lord Jesus Christ in person, we cannot see or realize his manifestation through his messages and edicts. If we only live in the realm of words, we cannot reach the domain of perception. We cannot even feel any quality if these edicts and messages are not manifested in human form. And even during our spiritual pursuit, often we shall reach such a feeling which would be seemingly impersonal.

Christians have to find and love such a man who loves and follows Christ wholeheartedly, i.e., manifests all the principles of Christ through body, mind, and deeds in every sphere of his own life. And that man is the prophet of the age, the present fulfiller. If we can love a single prophet sincerely, then we will be able to love all the prophets. Because prophets are one and the same. We must realize that Sri Ram, Sri Krishna, Lord Buddha, Lord Jesus, Hazrat Mohammad, Sri Chaitanya and Sri Ramakrishna are all the same in different divine forms. According to Sree Sree Thakur, if a man accepts One and disowns Others, then it is to be remembered that he has not accepted Him fully whom he declares as his own prophet. We have to create such an atmosphere so that everyone accepts every prophet from present to the past and from past to the present. We have to acknowledge that every prophet is the incarnation of my own prophet and should love them accordingly. Such a love will make it easy and normal to come in concord with different countries, sects, and nations. In this way, heaven may come down on this earth.

Knowledge lodges in man and man is the way to have it. Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra

Sree Sree Thakurs says in the holy book, Satyanusaran (Pursuit of truth), “Be attached to your living master or God and take only those who love him as your own. Because all the past Prophets are consummated in the divine Man of the present." So every Christian, every Muslim, Every Hindu should accept that divine man of the present. Every man should align himself or herself to that living Ideal who symbolizes the ‘absolute truth’. Every human being should come to the fold of Satsang (in communion with the Absolute Truth). In other words, every human being should become a Satsangee because the word 'Satsangee' by itself means a lover of existence. When that happens, this world would become such a beautiful place to live in. There would be no hatred and animosity among communities and people. Every human being would try to elevate every other human being. Every community would be interested in the upliftment of every other community. Our society will become an inter-interested society. Sree Sree Thakur says,

“Do love Christ for the sake of Christ. Think all true prophets as Christ Follow and fulfill that one in whom Christ lives with meaning and mercy This, I believe, is the essence Of Christianity for the world.” When a Christian devotee asked Sree Sree Thakur whether Christ was alive today, Sree Sree Thakur replied, “Maybe he is sitting in a remote corner of the world with an atom bomb of love in his hand.” So can we find out our very own loving Jesus sitting in some remote corner of this world on this Christmas day? Can we attach ourselves with him in love, adherence, and devotion?

PLEASURE, HAPPINESS & MEDITATION IN SREE SREE THAKUR ANUKULCHANDRAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S IDEOLOGY Rajarshi Roy, SPR Senior IT Professional, London e-Mail: RRoy.SatsangUK@yahoo.co.uk

ost people know what it is like to experience

pleasure, but few really understand what constitutes happiness. People say that their goal in life is to be happy. Yet they find defining and achieving it difficult. Pleasure is transient. Pleasure is the feeling we might get from enjoying a good meal, having great sex, experiencing a symphony or concert. Each of these can give us pleasure. But that pleasurable feeling quickly dissipates within a few minutes or hours; its shelf-life is short, often fleeting. Pleasure is experienced through the pleasure circuit in our brain. Certain substances can stimulate the pleasure center and certain activities can stimulate a release of neurotransmitters in our brain that affect the pleasure circuit resulting in a pleasurable sensation or sense of euphoria. There are people who are satisfied with living a life of pleasure. Many people become pleasure seekers, always looking for the next buzz, the next high. They can become addicted to the experience and may need bigger and bigger thrills to get a similar high. They may pursue the rush experienced when gambling, the buzz of doing something dangerous, or the high associated with some substance. No matter how much pleasure they receive at any given moment, it is seldom enough and never lasts. Enjoying and seeking pleasure is hard-wired into the human being. Infants enjoy being cuddled and stroked; they seek it and are soothed by it. Children like to alter their consciousness by spinning. They engage in repetitive activities just because doing so feels good. Bottom line: seeking pleasure is a normal human activity. However, it can become a problem when seeking pleasure becomes a way of life and interferes with developing oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s full human potential. Developing our full potential as human beings requires that we are willing to go beyond pleasure. This does not mean that one must give up pleasures. It only means that we have to learn to suspend solely pursuing pleasure in order to move beyond it. Happiness lies beyond pleasure.

Pleasure is easy to experience. Experiencing happiness, by contrast, is not so easy. Happiness, unlike pleasure, cannot be pursued directly. Happiness is the result of living a fulfilling life. It results from actualizing our potential as human beings. It requires that we have the basic needs for food, shelter, clothing, and security met before we can move towards higher values such as meaning, friendship, community, hobbies, and ultimately self-actualization. Happiness may be experienced when we live life with a sense of purpose. Each of us has a potential within us, just as an acorn has the potential of becoming a tree. Exactly what that potential is, differs for each of us. As we discover and develop those potentialities within ourselves, happiness results. The more we fulfill our potential, the happier we will become. The ultimate source of pleasure and eternal happiness is to attach ourselves to a superior beloved Living Ideal or Sad-guru. Attaching ourselves with Sad-guru or Living

ideal means getting the meditation mantra during the process of initiation in the creed of Sad-guru. The grandeur of philosophy of Sree Sree Thakur Anukulchandra (1888-1969), the realised guide, whose wisdom ranged from health to education, from science to philosophy and from literature to politics etc., could suit well as Living Ideal for any human being across race, color, nationality as millions around the world have already accepted HIM as their Living Ideal to make their lives more pleasurable. HE advocated for the comprehensive development of every individual by introducing eternal discipline in every aspect of life by practicing scientific and focused meditation. HE has mentioned in His own handwritten book, Satyanusaran, (The Pursuit of Truth): “Through meditation and repetition of the Holy Name, the brain cells are stimulated and gradually become more responsive; thus the sharpness of the senses is increased.” When the mind becomes sharp then all the hidden passion driven thoughts and senses in sub-conscious mind connects with our conscientious consciousness. Hence we can build the capability to take control of the circumstances or the situations around us. So the mind becomes more conducive to stretch beyond the level of getting short-lived pleasure from our everyday events, persons or materialistic possessions only. Sree Sree Thakur Anukulchandra has again mentioned in Satyanusaran: “If you feel pleasure in speaking about your Ideal, pleasure in hearing and thinking about Him, pleasure in His order, pleasure in His affection, pleasure even in His inattention, and the heart swells up in His Name; I tell you surely, don’t worry anymore for your elevation.” The literal meaning of this message is like if we take pleasure in talking and discussing about our Ideal or following the Ideal’s order then we don’t need to worry about our elevation. It is nothing miraculous. In actual sense, when we talk and discuss about the Living Ideal who is much superior and beloved to us, we’re actually meditating upon Him and keeping the Ideal in the center of the focussed meditation. Hence all the positive outcomes of meditation are being manifested in our natural actions, talks, and behaviors without putting any extra efforts.

In a nutshell, pleasure is immediate, while happiness is a long-term phenomenon. Both are integral to being human. Pleasure gives us the short-term respite from our daily grind. Happiness, on the other hand, refers to developing our full potential as human beings. It requires that we think beyond the immediate seeking activities that promote our growth as persons. Seeking pleasure simply feels good, but it does not promote our growth. Happiness results from growth, expanding our knowledge, actualizing our potential. Just as the acorn will strive to become the mighty oak, human beings, to experience happiness, must strive to reach their full potential and that becomes habitual instinct if we do practice scientific mediation with Holy meditation mantra after taking initiation in the creed of Sree Sree Thakur Anukulchandra, the most contemporary Living Ideal or realised guide. Vandepurushattamam! (Adorations to Fulfiller the Best)

Illusive opinion is seldom conscious of its own error, hence it foams away from fact and correction and mourns enthroned on the tragedy of unsuccess. Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra

AWAKENING CHRIST CONSCIOUSNESS Dr. Kriti Bhaswar Singh Birla Institute of Technology, Mesra (Noida Campus) (Currently on deputation to Royal Univ. of Bhutan)

n the 1960s, an American journalist James Michael

visited the holy land of Deoghar, India, to pay a visit to Sree Sree Thakur after having heard about him from fellow Americans. An interesting conversation (summarized) between them followed thereafter: James Michael — Thakur! I came from such a country where time is measured in terms of dollars. Now I talk to you a minute or two and then evaluate how many dollars I would be benefitted by. Please tell me your philosophy in a word or two’. Sri Sri Thakur replied exactly in two words—`Be concentric'. Michael —To whom? Thakur —To the Living Ideal. Michael —If I make my living Ideal—Henry Ford? Thakur— then you become Henry Ford because a man is shaped and fashioned by what he loves. You cannot be Jesus Christ, who is the fulfiller of the best, emblem of peace and progress. `Concentric word comes from Con + centric, the meaning of con is together and centric comes from the center. When we have a Living Ideal or center we become concentric otherwise eccentric'. Michael being totally convinced took Initiation and returned to America (Jeevannath Jagannath, Vol-I) What Sree Sree Thakur was referring here to Michael,

was to have a Christ-like Guru, Fulfiller the Best. Having such a Guru at the center of oneself can transform one’s life. Fulfiller the Best comes to establish Dharma— the uphold of existence, and to invigorate every being and every life. He does, He says, whatever He feels to be good to fulfill this purpose. As, Jesus said ‘“I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6 Bible). Such great Guru comes on the earth to make man free from the shackles of complexes who in possession of such complexes are unable to discern a lot of things by going deeper into the matter. The word Guru has come from Sanskrit -root gu, “darkness,” and ru. “that which dispels”, thus Guru or spiritual teacher is said to be “dispeller of darkness”. By saying 'no man cometh unto the Father, but by me' and “No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father” (John 1:18 Bible), Jesus was referring to the importance of living ideal in our life, without which no man can attain the Unqualified Absolute, the transcendent Father beyond creation. The unrepelling active love for Him shears man’s shackles of complexes, thus activating Christ Consciousness. Though man’s reason cannot fathom the riddle of creation, every mystery will ultimately be solved for

the devotee by God himself. Even struck by hundreds of faults, if a person, anyhow, is able to devote his love unto that Supreme Love, Benign Lord the Master, the path of deliverance becomes so much easy for him; his ego being dissolved can achieve entire oneness with that Christ Consciousness. “Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever He doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise” (John 5:19 Bible) or ‘Brahma vit Brahma eva bhavati’ (The realizer of Brahma [God], becomes Brahma Himself). Scriptures say that we get the life of a human being after millions of rebirths; the law of karma. And therefore, it is this ‘one lifetime’ that we need to seek Guru, a living ideal, through whom one can consciously regain the status of a "Son of God." As Jesus said, “Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the Sons of God”. (John 3:1 Bible). By making the Living Ideal, the center of one’s life, a man can adjust himself according to His ways and develop the evolving life of himself upward towards the Ideal. How is it possible to activate Christ Consciousness – through an un-tottering adherence of the individual to the Ideal, Sree Sree Thakur. It is possible through three simple exercises by anyone in any condition, in any place to gradually develop this adherence to his Ideal. With a slight sincerity, one can spontaneously develop a meaningful coordination with his Ideal and his environment. Firstly, a psychophysical exercise that stimulates the functioning of the brain cells to make them sensitive and receptive. This increases one’s comprehension and strengthens the nervous system. It is called ‘Jajan’. “Muni becomes eternally free who, seeking the Supreme Goal, is able to withdraw from external phenomena by fixing his gaze within the mid spot of the eyebrows and by neutralizing the even currents of prana and apana (that flow) within the nostrils and lungs; and to control his sensory mind and intellect; and to banish desire, fear and anger” (Bhagavad Gita IV:29). “Offering the inhaling breath into the exhaling breath and offering the exhaling breath into the inhaling breath, the yogi neutralizes both breaths; thus he releases prana from the heart and brings life force under his control” (Bhagavad Gita IV:29). Secondly, to serve one’s environment daily both through, words and deeds so that others’ lives are exalted towards the Ideal’ This is called ‘Jaajan’.

Sri Sri Thakur has defined Jaajan as “Kidnapping the soul of a man for God by auto initiative, inquisitive love and service”. Thirdly, to offer something every morning before all else to the Ideal. This daily love offering is called Istavrity. It is a practical materialized condensed form of psychophysical ascetic devotion. Sri Sri Thakur has named Istavrity as ‘Samarth Yoga’ as it makes a man able; "If the offering is achieved through energetic volition and ability, it renders one abler and abler, gradually. And makes one rocky in his stand. It generates an undaunted energy within when others quiver in the blast.". In short Jajan makes the brain sensitive, Jaajan makes one conscious, responsible for the needs of the environment and Istavrity makes one’s love for the Ideal grow so that the sensitivity of the mind and responsibility for the environment may be fulfilled in the Ideal’s way and for His sake, thus developing Christ Consciousness within oneself. It is through our love for the lover of Christ that we can love Christ and develop the art of ChristConsciousness within.

Do and be wedded to time with a dowry of tactfulness and get an issue of success. Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra

Various medicinal plants and their uses Pradyot Kumar Nayak Student, Msc Ag. (Horticulture) OUAT, Bhubaneswar, Odisha

PUDINA SCIENTIFIC NAME- Mentha spp. FAMILY- Lamiaceae SOME IMPORTANT SPECIES WITH COMMON NAMESMentha arvensis –wild mint, Japanese-mint Mentha piperita – peppermint (is a hybrid mint, a cross between watermint and spearmint) Mentha spicata (syn. M. viridis, M. cordifolia) – spearmint (The species derives its name from the resemblance of the tips of its leaves to pointed lances or spears), curly mint (a cultivar of spearmint) Mentha suaveolens – apple mint (This is a very fragrant herb having a fruit-like flavour, somewhat akin to that of spearmint), pineapple mint (a variegated cultivar of apple mint) Mentha citrata – bergamot mint, orange mint (derives its name from the fact that when the leaves of this plant are crushed, they have a somewhat orange flavor). HABITAT- Mint is believed to have originated in Mediterranean basin and from there, spread to rest of the world by both natural and artificial means. Mint is a hardy perennial plan. It also grows yearround in warmer climates. Mint thrives in both cool and warm climates, and it also retains its potency of flavor over the years. Mint performs its best in full sun, as long as the soil is kept moist, but it also thrives in partial shade. All mints thrive near pools of water, lakes, rivers, and cool moist spots. In general, mints tolerate a wide range of conditions. Mint is considered an invasive plant, since it sends out "runners" and spreads vigorously. PLANTING- Take cuttings from the top growth of your mint plant, about 8cm in length. Remove the lower leaves and cut the stem just below the leaf node (the point on the stem where leaves emerge). Place the stems in a glass of water. Leave in a light, airy place until the stems have taken root.

The stems will take root within a couple of weeks. Once a good root system has developed, pot the stems up in a container. Try to keep the soil moist as mint is a moisture loving plant. PARTS USED- Leaves MEDICINAL PROPERTIESInternal use - Stomachic , hepatic, carminative: A good remedy for indigestion.

Contraindications and toxicity of Mint Mint leaves, used in therapeutic doses, have no toxicity. However, it should not be used with people with hiatal hernia, or problems caused by acid reflux. The ability of this herb to relax the esophageal valve can worsen heartburn. Nor should this plant be used if the person is affected with gallbladder stones. It is also unsuitable for small children whom it can cause adverse reactions. It may cause abortion to pregnant women and its intake by breastfeeding women may affect the baby. This herb must be only taken in the last cases under medical recommendation. People suffering from liver diseases should abstain taking mint essential oil preparations. All the same for people with some intestine disorders, such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease or irritable bowel syndrome. It is neither recommended for patients who suffer from neurological diseases, such as Parkinson's disease. Properties and cautions with Menthol Mint essential oil, rich in menthol, used pure, is toxic and can be fatal to an adult with a single dose of a teaspoon. This oil should be diluted so it can be used. In no case it should be supplied, even diluted, to people to whom is not recommended, as we have seen before. The essential oil can dramatically lower blood pressure in young children leading to cardiac depression and therefore it is not suitable for children, even used topically as an ointment or aspirated through the nose . By inhaling the vapors of menthol, the children can suffer suffocation by spasm of the larynx.

Alert, principled and organized integrity with power, piety and forbearance invite peace and progress. Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra Page 20

Internal use of essential oil can cause convulsions or cramps. Even diluted, mint oils, applied internally may cause sleep problems or nervousness. Used diluted externally on the skin can cause eczema, redness, blisters, headaches, by means of skin absorption. If there is any adverse reaction , it should no longer be applied. Although mint leaves, used in therapeutic amounts, have no toxicity, children should not take herbal teas made with mint leaves.

NEEM SCIENTIFIC NAME- Azadirachta indica FAMILYMeliaceae COMMON NAMESSanskrit: Pakvakrita, nimbaka Odia: Nimba Bengali: Neem Hindi: Neem HABITAT- It is native to the Indian subcontinent, i.e. India, Nepal, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Maldives. It typically is grown in tropical and semitropical regions. PLANTING- Just put your neem seeds in a pot with a very good quality potting mixture, cover them with an inch of the mixture, and keep that pot moist and warm. Neem seeds should germinate within one to three weeks. (The cooler the temperature, the longer the seed will take to germinate.) Neem tree needs little water and plenty of sunlight The Neem grows slowly during the first year of planting. Young neem plants cannot tolerate intensive shade, frost or excessive cold. A Neem tree normally begins to bear fruit between 3 and 5 years and becomes fully productive in 10 years. PARTS USED- The bark, leaves, and seeds are used to make medicine. Less frequently, the root, flower, and fruit are also used.

MEDICAL NEWS!

Broken sleep may increase risk for Alzheimer’s

If you keep waking up in the middle of the night, your brain may be in trouble. Three recent studies have shown that breathing disorders that interrupt sleep are linked to higher levels of the betaamyloid protein, which is associated with Alzheimer’s. This was true both for people who have

been

diagnosed

with

mild

cognitive

impairment and for those with no symptoms. It’s

not clear yet if sleep disruptions actually cause dementia, but addressing them will help your brain work better in any case. If you’re tired all the time, get tested by a sleep specialist.

Air pollution kills India ranks fifth on the list of countries with the highest deaths related to pollution, revealed The Lancet’s Commission on Pollution and Health (2017). According to the study, the loss of five lakh Indian lives, in 2015, was attributed to one pollutant alone—PM2.5. This is emitted by crop residue burning, vehicular exhaust, power plants and combustion of solid fuel. Much smaller than the width of a strand of human hair, it can sneak past the body’s natural barriers, lodge itself in the lungs and attack the immune system. Check the air quality index in your area and if the levels of PM2.5 exceed 25 μg/m3 (24-hour mean), experts recommend staying indoors, keeping windows closed and wearing a mask when outdoors.

SPECIAL COVERAGE THE GLORIOUS PAST OF INDIA: THE MYSTERIOUS KONARK TEMPLE Crystel Pilz Stuttgart, Germany

efore starting the main article, I must declare that

the current visible structure of Konark Sun Temple is the entrance to the main temple structure and the main temple structure is already destroyed and only remains are available at the same spot. (The Konark Temple was destroyed by the Islamic Invader Kalapahada, who attacked Orissa in 1568. Including Konark temple, he broke most of the images in most of the Hindu temples in Orissa and Bengal) The Konark temple in Orissa, is a chariot with 24 wheels, pulled by 7 Horses... Why Seven Horses?

We Know, splitting up white or pure Sun light into seven colors on passing through a transparent medium like a Glass Prism.

When a white light beam is passed through a prism, a band of seven colors are formed is known as spectrum of white light. The seven colors in the spectrum are, Violet, Indigo, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange and Red. These Seven fundamental colors are symbolized by the Seven Horses of the Lord Sun in Ancient Hindu Texts. The seven horses are named after these seven colors: Sahasrara (Violet), Indra-nila (Indigo), Nila (Blue), Haritaha (Green), Pita (Yellow), Kausumbhaha (Orange) and Rakta (Red)

According to Ancient Hindu Science, The Seven Horses Symbolized the Seven Colors of Pure Sun light. Consider, seek out thy fault, do correct, Adjust and behave accordingly, perfection will approach with the crown of success and adorement. Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra Page 23

The Magnets and the Floating Idol: The most popular theory associated with Konark temple is its magnets & the floating idol in the air. The uniqueness of the Sun Temple of Konark lies in the fact that it was built with an architectural setup of various magnets.

During the construction of the main tower of the temple the artisans put an iron plate between every two stone pieces. There is a lodestone at the top of the temple was said to be a massive fifty-two ton magnet. According to legends, the statue of the Sun God inside the temple was built of a material with iron content and was said to be floating in air, without any physical support, due to the unique arrangements of the top magnet, the bottom magnet and the reinforced magnets around the temple walls. The placement of the main temple and the Sun God had been aligned in such a way that the first ray of the Sun from the coast would cross the Nata Mandir (Dancing Hall) and would fall & reflect from the diamond placed at the crown of the Sun God. The entire Temple was under a soft magnetic field that had wonderful healing powers too. Other legends state that, the magnetic effect of the lodestone was so strong that it caused disturbances in the compasses of the ships, which passed by the coast (Konark being a major port at that time), thus making the navigation very difficult for the sailors. To save their trade and their ships, the Portuguese sailors destroyed the temple and took away the lodestone. The removal of the lodestone led to the collapse of the main temple structure. The Konark Sun Temple (also called the Black Pagoda or Temple of the Sun) is a Hindu temple located in the locality of Konark, The temple complex was built in the shape of a gigantic chariot, adorned with massive, elaborately carved stone wheels, pillars and walls. A major part of the structure is now in ruins. Dedicated to Lord Surya (Sun - The source of all energies of our solar system).

It is one of the most important buildings in the country due to its architecture and bas-reliefs that decorate its walls, with a fundamentally erotic theme. King Narasimhadeva I, the great ruler of the Ganga dynasty had built this temple, with the help of 1200 artisans within a period of 12 years (1243-1255 A.D.). Konark temple was initially built on the sea bank but now the sea has receded and the temple is few kilometres away from the sea. The Sun Temple of Konark is gigantic so also the stories & myths associated with it are many. It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984. The name Konark derives from the combination of the Sanskrit words, Kona (corner or angle) and Ark (the sun), in reference to the temple which was dedicated to the Sun God Surya. Archaeologists and historians differ on most questions. What one sees is that the structure resembles a colossal chariot with 12 pairs of wheels, lavishly sculpted, may be meant as a sun dial, pulled by seven horses, designed to let the first rays of the sun fall on the main entrance. (Arka means Surya or Sun and Kona stands for corner). There is, however, a palm-leaf manuscript which begins with the appointment of the chief architect, a Brahmin priest called Sadasiva Samantaray Mahapatra, who appointed the executive architect, the superintendent of works, the chief image-maker, the head stone-mason, the maker of the scaffolding, the plasterers, and so on. ARCHITECTURAL FIGURES OF KONARK SUN TEMPLE: Most of the architectural figures which made the temple so famous, were completely buried under the debris and sands, till the early 19th century. The existence of these beautiful lions, wheels, horses, elephants and the simhasana of Sun God being not known to the people, the visitors who came in these days could not even enjoy the halt of its beauty. Narasimhadeva's desired temple was built in the form of a huge Ratha (chariot), having twelve pairs of wheels exquisitely carved out in the northern and southern sides of the plinth masonary and drawn by a team of seven spirited horses, speeding as if, through the heaven.

southern sides of the plinth masonary and drawn by a team of seven spirited horses, speeding as if, through the heaven.

every wheel is different. The wheels of the chariot are also symbolic and have been interpreted as the 'Sun Dial'.

Royal Guard of Konark - Lion Upon Elephant Upon Man

War Horses of Konark Temple:

The eastern gateway which is the main entrance to the temple compound, is decorated with Gajasimha (Lion upon an elephant) images, with outward faces, installed on two high stone benches on either side of the passage. Two high stone benches are also provided at the inner sides, possibly meant for the guards to sit. According to the Hindu mythology, the lions resemble the pride, elephants resemble the wealth and both of them kill the human. The entire figure is made out of one piece of stone.

There are two gorgeously carved war horses in front of the southern side of the Konark Temple. They are each ten feet long and seven feet high. The sculpture depicts each of them with its massive strength and energy crushing down the warrior. This figure of war horse of Konark has been accepted as the symbol of the state Government of Odisha as her former martial glory. The Legend behind the creation of the First Sun Temple is really very Interesting:

Great Wheel of Konark:

According to legend, Prince Samba â&#x20AC;&#x201C; son of lord Krishna and Devi Jambavati

The entire temple is made in the form of a huge chariot of Sun God with 24 wheels (12 pairs). The Konark wheel is the primary attraction of the temple. The wheels of the chariot have exquisitely decorated around their axles and peripheries. The art work of

Lord Krishna punished his son (Prince Samba) by inoculating him with leprosy (leprosy is a contagious disease that affects the skin). Later, Samba showed him that Narada (The Saint of Ancient Divine Journalism) had manipulated him,

though Sri Krishna could no longer remove his curse but He told him the method to be free from this Curse. Then, the young man traveled to see Surya, the God who heals all diseases, particularly those of the skin â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and discovered to the north of Puri, an image of the sun god sitting on a lotus flower. He settled in the place and did a penance of twelve years, at the end of which he was cured. In gratitude, he erected a temple, the first that was built on the site of Konark. [*Note: Medical Science confirmed that Sun Light has too many Healing Properties, specially it has anticancer properties, controlling the Oxybenzone, which is linked to hormone disruption and cell damage that may lead to skin cancer.] Navagraha Temple: I feel wonderful when in every corner of Hinduism I get Science and Astronomy, again here... Navagraha Temple (Nine Planets Temple) is located just outside the Sun Temple compound. It houses a huge chlorite slab, 20 feet (6 metres) long, four feet (1.2 metre) high and 7 feet (2 metres) deep with idols of nine planets made with black chlorite stone and richly ornamented. This stone slab was originally set above the temple's ornamental doorways (Jagamohana) is now kept inside the Navagraha Temple. If you visit Konark temple and hire any guide for your help then they will explain you above legends and stories. Let me iterate it again that the current visible structure of Konark Sun Temple is the entrance to the main temple structure and the main temple structure is already destroyed and only remains are available at the same spot.

प्रश्न । प्रिर क्या अकृर्ज्ञ की क्या से वा नही ं करनी है ? उनकी से वा करने से दे खने को प्रमलर्ा है प्रक बु रा ही होर्ा है । श्रीश्रीठाकुरजी । से वा क्यों नही ं करोगे ? लेप्रकन हर समर् नज़र रखोगे र्ु म्हारी से वा उसके भप्रवष्य जीवन मद ऐसा एक अथा न लेके आए, प्रजसके कारण, र्ु म बािाग्रस्त और अवसन्न हो जाओ ; ऐसे र्ु म र्ु म्हारी र्रह करर्े जाओ । दे खोगे , इसके िलस्वरूप प्रदन-वप्रदन मनुष्य र्ु ममद आकृष्ट और स्तु प्रर्-परार्ण हो उठे गा, और र्ह अकृर्ज्ञर्ा को घृणा, अवहे लना और शासन के द्वारा चूर-चूर कर दे गा । र्ह समझलो, पररपाप्रश्वाक को छोड़कर कोई अब्धस्तत्व को चेर्ना की स्फूप्रर्ा नही ं प्रमलर्ी । र्ु म्हारा जैसे पररपाप्रश्वाक है , उसका भी वै से है । र्ु म जैसे अपने पररपाप्रश्वाक की चीत्त-उद्दीप्ती का अंग हो, वह वै से उसके पररपाप्रश्वाक के चीत्त-उद्दीप्ती को अवसन्न करना चाहे गा । पररपाप्रश्वाक उनके स्वाभाप्रवक स्वब्धस्त की चाह के प्रलए, वह जैसे वै सा कुछ न कर पाए, उसके प्रलए शख्त-हस्त प्रर्ोग करे गा ही करे गा । इसप्रलए र्ु म र्ु म्हारी से वा को अकृप्रिम रूप मद जहाूँ जैसा ज़रूरर् है वै से चलार्े जाओ ― और प्रजर्ना ही वह पक्का होगा, जीवनीर् स्फूप्रर्ा की उद्बोिना प्रजर्नी कर पाएगा, प्रनकट जो हैं ― प्रजन-प्रजनमद र्ु म्हारी से वा साथाक हुई है ― उनका स्वाथाकेन्द्र बना ही दे गा, इसमद कोई सं देह नही ं है । अनुर्ादक : सुहमत पटे ल

पुरुषोत्तम ी इष्ट, आिायव और सदगुरु ैं श्री राजद द्र पुहाण, सत्सं ग प्रवहार, प्रदल्ली

र्ु ग पुरुषोत्तम परमप्रेममर् श्रीश्रीठाकुर अनुकूल चन्द्र जी की वाणी है , "पुरुषोत्तम आर्े हैं जब , ईष्ट आचार्ा वे ही गु रु । वे ही सभी के जीवन दण्ड, वे हैं सभी के जीवन मेरु ।। अथाा र् पुरुषोत्तम ही इष्ट हैं ,आचार्ा हैं ,सद् गु रु हैं । वही सभी के जीवन दण्ड है । वर्ा मान सं घाचार्ा परम पूज्यपाद श्रीश्रीदादा चेन्नई सत्संग प्रवहार उदबोिन के प्रदन प्रदल्ली सत्संग प्रवहार के सप्रचव जप्रर्न दा से कह रहे थे की - ठाकुर ही पुरुषोत्तम ,ईष्ट ,आचार्ा ,सद् गु रु ,ऋब्धत्वक ,अिा व्यु , र्ाजक है । अभी इस प्रवषर् के ऊपर आलोचना करर्े हैं , पुरुषोत्तम ही इष्ट हैं - इष्ट का अथा सभी के आराध्य , सभी के पूज्य , सभी के उपास्य जो व्यब्धि प्रवशे ष होर्े हैं , ईष्ट वही होर्े हैं , जो कीड़े मकौड़े से लेकर इं सान र्क छल ,बल और कौशल से सभी का हर पल मंगल सोचर्े हैं । इष्ट वही हैं जो मनुष्य की सभी समस्या के समािान सहज ,सरल भाव से कर सकर्े हैं । वही हैं मनुष्य के आदशा । ठाकुर जी की वाणी है ,

"Ideal means - who enriches the past ,enlivens the present and enlightens the future " (Sri Sri Thakur ) जो अर्ीर् को आपूररर् करर्े हैं , वर्ा मान को सं वप्रिार् करर्े हैं और भप्रवष्य को आलोप्रकर् करर्े हैं । इसप्रलए वे वर्ा मान र्ु ग के एक सवोत्तम मनु ष्य हैं । वे एक और अद्वीर्ीर् हैं ,गु रूणां गु रुिः । उपदे श और चलन उनके सम्पूणा प्रनभूा ल हैं ।इसप्रलए वे अभ्ां र् ,प्रिकालदशी और सवा शब्धिमान हैं । आदशा का अथा प्रसिा कुछ अच्छी प्रनप्रर् प्रनर्म मद बं िा हुआ चलन नही ं है । प्रजसका जैसा आदशा होगा उसका स्वभाव भी वै सा ही होगा । उदाहरण - जो अप्रमर्ाभ बच्चन को आदशा मानर्ा है , वो अमीर्ाभ बच्चन जैसा स्टाइल करर्ा है । जो र्द दुलकर को आदशा मानर्ा है वो र्द दुलकर जैसे बै ट घुमार्ा है । ऐसे ही प्रजसके आदशा पुरुषोत्तम होंगे , उसका आचार , आचरण सब उनके मुर्ाप्रबक होगा । श्री श्री ठाकुर ने सत्यानु सरण मद प्रलखा है -"र्ु म जैसे आदशा मद प्रवस्वास स्थापन करोगे ,र्ु म्हारा स्वभाव भी र्द्रूप होगा " इसप्रलए श्रेष्ठ आदशा की जरूरर् है । प्रजनको शास्त्र मद एक शब्द मद नरोत्तम र्ा पुरुषोत्तम कहा गर्ा है । "नारार्णम् नमस्कृत्य नरै स्चैब नरोत्तमिः "अथाा र् प्रसिा नारार्ण र्ा नरोत्तम र्ानी पुरोषोत्तम ही नमस्कार ग्रहण र्ोग्य हैं ।अथाा र् हम प्रजर्ने भी प्रणाम ,और भोग प्रनवे दन करर्े हैं वो सब उनके पास पहं चर्ा है । पुरुषोत्तम आचार्ा हैं :- आचार्ा का अथा है आचरण प्रसद्ध व्यब्धित्व । जो प्रसिा कहर्े नही ं आचरण मद करके प्रदखा दे र्े हैं । ठाकुर जी ने प्रजर्नी भी वाणी दी है सब अपने जीवन के Experience को ही वाणी के रूप मद बोला है ।

पुरुषोत्तम ही हैं इष्ट , वे ही ध्ये र् और अनुसरणीर् हैं । प्रिर पुरुषोत्तम के अवर्ा मान मद र्प्रन्नष्ट ,र्त्तपा आचार्ा ही अनुसरणीर् है । लेप्रकन सवा अवस्था मद पुरुषोत्तम ही ध्येर् हैं । इसी पुरुषोत्तम के प्रप्रर् अनुराग सृ प्रष्ट करने के प्रलए ही वे त्ता आचार्ा जो हैं अथाा र् जो वर्ा मान आचार्ा श्रीश्रीदादा ही हैं अनुसरणीर् । वे ही हैं जीवन्त आदशा । जीवन्त आदशा के अनु सरण के प्रबना अनुराग नही ं होगा । र्ु ग पुरुषोत्तम श्रीश्री ठाकुर अनुकूल चन्द्र जी ने एक अनोखी आचार्ा परम्परा का सृ जन प्रकर्ा है , उनके नेर्ृत्व मद आज सत्संग प्रवशाल रूप िारण करके आगे बढ़ रहा है । पुरुषोत्तम गु रु हैं : गु अथाा र् अन्धकार और रु अथाा र् आलोक । जो मनुष्य की समस्त समस्या का समािान करके उसको नर्ी प्रदशा प्रदखार्े हैं । वही हैं सद् गु रु र्ा जगद् गु रु । वो हैं सवा गुणसम्पन्न मनुष्य । जाजा वनाा ण्डीश की भाषा मद He is a completely developed man अथाा र् सम्पूणा प्रवकप्रसर् मनुष्य । शास्त्र मद है सवा दे वोमर् गु रुिः अथाा र् सभी दे व दे वी उनमे समाप्रहर् हैं । श्रीश्रीठाकुर जी ने कहा है सभी दे वर्ा के समाहार मद पुरुषोत्तम की सृ प्रष्ट सहज मनुष्य नर रूप मद करर्े हैं िृ प्रर् वृ प्रष्ट ।। पुरुषोत्तम एक र्ु ग्म शब्द है । पुरुष + उत्तम = पुरुषोत्तम । पुरुष शब्द सं स्कृर् के पुर् िार्ु से उत्प्न्न्न है प्रजसका अथा है - पूरण करना , पालन करना ,पोषण करना । सो पुरुष शब्द का अथा हुआ जो सभी की मंशा को पूणा कर सकर्े हैं । और उत्तम का अथा हुआ श्रेष्ठ । पुरुषोत्तम के अथा हुआ सवा श्रेष्ठ पररपुरण कारी पुरूष । उनको आदशा मानकर चलने से हमारी व्यब्धिगर् समस्या , दाम्पत्य समस्या र्था राप्रष्टिर् समस्या का समािान होर्ा है । बन्दे पुरुषोत्तमम ।
