Thirumurai and Hinduism Classes for All in USJ

Thirumurai and Hinduism Classes
Sanathana Dharma is an ancient philosophy yet as new as current. It embeds in our way of life and guides throughout. The essence of teachings through the various Vedantas (philosophies) enriches the Indian culture and nourishes one’s mind. All great saints and Gurus who have transcended through the various Vedantas within Sanathana Dharma have enabled mankind to prosper worldly at the same
time, spiritually.
The Nayanmar’s Thirumurai, Manikavasagar’s Thiruvasagam and Arunagirinathar’s Thirupugazh nourishes one’s soul in the present and after world. The one who recites these hymns truly understanding the meanings attains the feet of God (as quoted in Sivapuranam)

Sanatana Dharma Classes

"Aakashath Pathitham Thoyam Yatha Gachathi Sagaram Sarvadeva Namaskaram Keshavam Prathi Gachathi" "As the water that falls down in rain from anywhere in the sky finally reaches the Ocean, the worship of any divine aspect ultimately reaches the Supreme Being."  What is the true meaning of this great verse that was said by Shankara? If the above is true, then  why the confusion and conflict? A rguments and debates?Q uarrels and fights? We see arguments within Sanatana Dharma followers, we see conflicts between people from different religions, we experience chaos in our own mind, which is the right teaching. We end up switching from one belief system to the other, from one Guru to another, from one religion to another. This goes on and on. The cause of this, is mainly because we only see the differences between us, we fail to appreciate the similarities. We think superior of ourselves and our belief system and not realizing the essence of our very own teachings wh

Tarpanam and Soul's Journey

Image
Often times, I get questioned by people why do we do Tarpanam. The question arises in 2 context.  1. A non believer of God trying to question with narrow mindedness and with limited knowledge of Sanathana Dharma and with expectation that results that are not seen, heard, felt, tasted, spoken and smelled is untrue. 2. A true believer of God trying to gain knowledge and ensure that they perform a ritual meaningfully. For the first questioner, this article does not apply as these folks need to be approached in a different manner. This article is particularly for the 2nd questioner who is trying to understand the significance of the ritual and wants to perform the ritual for betterment. Starting with the definitions: Tarpanam comes from the word 'Trup' which means 'to satisfy others'. Tila Tarpanam is usage of Tila (black sesame seeds) to satisfy others. Why is Tila used instead of pepper corns, mustard seeds or even some tasty Pizza or Pasta?  Wh

Should I be a Vegetarian

Image
One asks if Hindu's should be vegetarians. Instead, one should ask ''him/herself if  'I' should be vegetarian". S ince such a question has already arisen in your mind, perhaps you have developed a degree of sensitivity about harming other living forms to satisfy your physical hunger. If that is true, you may be better off not eating meat. That way you will be at peace with yourself. Since you are sensitive to this issue, your intellect may be directing you towards being a vegetarian. It is a possibility. However, your mind wants the pleasure of eating meat and your body may crave it due to past habits. So you have to reflect on this. Why has this question come up for you? What is the right thing for you to do? In my last post I spoke about Sattvik lifestyle and what makes us a Brahmin. In the same context, I am going to touch on Advaita Vedanta and the definition of it. Advaita means non dual, Vedanta means Philosophy. So when we say non dual, it mean
