  • Twenty Four Rishis Of Gayatri One For Each Syllable

     I have written on the Gayatri Mantra, the most sacred of the Mantras of Hindus, quite a few articles,

    Gayatri Mantra.jpg
    The Gayatri Mantra.

    its efficacy in realizing The Reality and its effect in warding off evil and its power to sharpen the Intellect and bestowing Prosperity.

    I have also written about the number of letters in the Gayatri Mantra.

    Based on Intonation the Gayatri Mantra has Twenty our letters

    Now, who are the Rishis of the Gayatri Mantra and the Chief Rishi who released the Gayatri Mantra?

    The Rishi who revealed the Gayatri Mantra is Sage Visvamitra.

    The Rishis, according the Nyasa we recite for the Gaytri are seven in number..

    They are,

    Atri,

    Bhrigu,

    Kutsa,

    Vasishta,

    Gautama,

    Kasyapa and

    Angirasa.

    But the Devi  Bhagvatham states there are twenty our Rishis

    The Risis, in due order, are

    (1) Vâma Deva,

    (2) Attri,

    (3) Vas’istha

    ,(4) S’ukra,

    (5) Kanva,

    (6) Parâs’ara,

    (7)  Vis’vamitra,

    (8) Kapila,

    (9) S’aunaka,

    (10) Yâjñavalkya,

    (11) Bharadvâja,

    (12) Jamadagni,

    (13) Gautama,

    (14) Mudgala,

    (15) Vedavyâsa,

    (16) Lomas’a,

    (17) Agastya,

    (18) Kaus’ika,

    (19) Vatsya,

    (20) Pulastya,

    (21) Mânduka,

    (22)  Durvâsâ,

    (23) Nârada and

    (24) Kas’yapa.

    ( 12th Book,Chapter I, Slokas 1 to 7)

    It may be noted that one Rishi seems to have been assigned to One tone(for one syllable)

    And Agastya seem to find a place a well.

    There is Kausika, apart from Viswamitra.

    Viswamitra was known as Kausika when he was a King.

    I am checking on this Kausika as I feel he is another Rishi.

  • Vasishta ‘head’ Dated 3700 BC ,Attempt to Change the Date

    As I have observed in many of my articles, if one finds an article of great antiquity relating to India/Hinduism, attempt is made to  post date it from the scientific date!

    This has happened in the case of dating  Krishna’s Dwaraka,Arikkamedu Tamil Nadu,Pallavaram , Tamil Nadu,Rig Veda……

    Vasishta's head, copper idol found in Delhi
    Vasishta’s head, copper idol found in Delhi

    And if the evidence is strong ,take the piece in question to some foreign Museum, as in the case of the inscription in an Egyptian Tomb which contained a verse from the Bhagavad Gita, and make it disappear from the museum!(  in London) 

    The piece in question is reported to be in a British Museum.

    Now comes another shocker.

    The head of sage Vasishta, the Guru of Lord Rama’s Ikshvaku dynasty!

    The piece recovered in 1958 from a scrap dealer  by D.Anderson  in Delhi is carbon dated to 3700 BC.

    Now comes the twist.

    Unable to come to terms with the date of the Piece, attempt is being made to declare that it

     

    ‘head was not found in an archaeological context, as it was rescued from being melted down in Delhi, and has also been seen of questionable veracity as it bears a legible inscription and could simply have be created by recycling material from older copper.’

    If the recycling is done it will reflect in the results.

    Now there are  new technologies to check the date accurately.

    I am providing the details towards the close of the article.

    Shall we question the accuracy of the date of the artifacts found in the West suffer from the same ‘defect’ found in Vasishta’s idol ?

    One point  to be admitted is that while dating metals or rocks or inscriptions, the dating is restricted to the material like the rock or the metal.

    If it can be solved, and it seems to have been solved, in the case of dating ancient scripts and many metal artfifacts, specially in the West,why deny the courtesy to Vasishta’s idol?

    Or is it the usual practice of ‘suppresso veri, suggesto falsi’

    -suppress the Truth, suggest the untruth/lie

    ‘A copper item representing a human head styled in the manner described for Vashistha has been dated to around 3700 BC in three western universities using among other tests carbon 14 tests, spectrographic analysis, X-ray dispersal analysis and metallography.

    The head was not found in an archaeological context, as it was rescued from being melted down in Delhi, and has also been seen of questionable veracity as it bears a legible inscription and could simply have be created by recycling material from older copper.

    New method of dating for metal objects.

    ‘How can the age of archeological objects be determined if the well-established carbon dating method does not apply, for example for metal objects? Spanish and Portuguese scientists have now introduced a technique for dating artifacts made of copper and bronze. Presented in the journal Angewandte Chemie, their electroanalytical method is based on the voltammetry of microparticles. It compares various corrosion products that form over long periods of time and works with only a few nanograms of material so it causes almost no damage.

    Voltammetric experiments produce current–voltage curves that have characteristic shapes for many compounds. In order to date copper-containing, archaeological finds, a team led by Antonio Doménech-Carbó at the University of Valencia examined the ratios of two different copper oxides, tenorite and cuprite, that can be differentiated and quantified based on their voltammetric curves.

    When they are exposed to air, copper surfaces become covered by a natural layer of cuprite (Cu2O). Over time, this layer is slowly converted to other products of corrosion. As copper-containing objects age in a slightly corrosive environment, without contact with soils or sea air, a layer of tenorite (CuO) continuously forms over the primary cuprite patina. This occurs because cuprite reacts with oxygen from the air to preferentially form tenorite in an atmosphere containing CO2 or in the presence of calcareous materials. Examination of copper coins by scanning electron microscopy coupled with X-ray spectroscopy confirmed the presence of cuprite and tenorite.

    To carry out the electroanalytical experiments, the researchers impregnate a graphite bar electrode with paraffin and dab the surface of the artefact with it. A few nanograms of the sample surface stick to the electrode, which is then dipped into an aqueous electrolyte. This causes almost no damage to the object. Copper oxide microparticles result in very characteristic peaks in the resulting current–voltage curves.

    Of particular interest to the researchers is the ratio of the current peaks for tenorite and cuprite. It shows a steady increase with increasing corrosion time, as demonstrated with a series of antique coins from various collections, including the Prehistory Museums of València and Xàtiva (Spain), as well as the artificial ageing of Euro cent coins made of copper. The researchers were able to use the coins to establish a calibration curve that can be used to date objects of unknown age.

    The voltammetric dating of a water pitcher from the Caliphal period and a Montefortino helmet from the Roman age gave ages of 1050±80 and 2150±150 years, respectively, which agree well with dates previously established from the archaeological context.

    Greeks Reference In India Texts 2000 BC

    Ancient Indians considered Life to be ephemeral, transient and concentrated on realising the Reality and were concerned about the origin of the world and other philosophical questions.

    As such,they did not consider it worthwhile recording history or personal achievements.

    Religious texts were transmitted orally.

    And then came the invaders.

    There was a Dravida Civilization in the South before or started with Manu in the south of Vindhyas,

    The tribes of Dravidas were left behind by Manu when he left for Ayodhya,

    Sage Vasista stayed in the South,

    Later when Viswamitra banished his sons to the south, Dravida civilization was in existence during the Ramayana…

    Ganesa Devi in Mooladhara Siddhas Explain

    The process of Vaasi is difficult for people,except for those who are gifted. To solve this,Siva had advised Patanjali to simplify Vaasi and introduce a yoga practice that would elevate one to Vaasi consciousness from where Vassi Yoga will take over. Accordingly Patanjali composed Yoga Sutra ,laying emphasis on postures ,followed by Pranayama.

  • Rudram Prokshana Mantra By Kutsa Indras Look Alike

    There are seven Seers, Rishis in Sananatana Dharma.

    These seven Rishis are called Saptha (seven) Rishis.

    These Rishis are Eternal and they do not die even at the time of the Dissolution of the Universe.

    t34_sri-vadivazhagiya-nambi-perumal_temple6
    Thiru Anbil Temple near Tiruchi.

    But the Rishis change for every Yuga(aeon)

    For the present time frame called Kali Yuga, these are the Saptha Rishis.

    Atri,

    Bhrigu,

    Kutsa,

    Vasishta,

    Gautama,

    Kasyapa and Angirasa.

    One of the least known Rishis is Kutsa.

    Kutsa who traces his ancestry to Angirasa is mentioned in all the  four Vedas, a rare honour.

    He authored Sukthas in The Rig Veda but refers it to hos ancestor Angirasa as a mark of respect by callimg it Kutsa Angirasa.

    As an aside it may be mentioned that the Great Acharayas never attribute their works directly to themselves.

    They refer to their ancestors, as in the case of Kutsa or to thier Guru.

    Following the later tradition Adi Shankaracharya attributes every work of his as,

    ‘Ithi Govinda Bhagavad Pada Shisya’

    Kutsa also contributed 65 sukthas to Sri Rudram on the Yajur Veda.

    He was a close friend of Indra, the Chief of Gods( devas)

    He was a mirror image of Indra.

    ‘

    there is mention of a conversation between Sage Vamadeva and Indra which illustrates how Kutsa and Indra were not only intimate friends, but were also ‘look-alikes’ — so much so that at one point, Indrani herself could not tell them apart- Rig Veda 4.6.10

    Kutsai was the son of a Rajarishi named Ruru. Indra helped Ruru by decimating his enemies, and he invited Kutsa to Indraloka to celebrate the victory. Once, Kutsa fell into a deep well, and Indra came running to save his friend- Rig Veda10.40.6.

     

    Rig Veda106.6 there is a suktam consisting of seven mantras. Although Kutsa Rishi discovered this suktam, he named it in conjunction with his guru, Angirasa, as the Kutsa Angeerasa.

    In Panini’s Ashtadhyayi, he is mentioned as an old acharya. He is described as worshipping Agni in different forms, addressing him with different names.

    The Prokshana Mantra

    ‘Om Bhoo, Om Bhuvaha, Om Suvahaâ”

    is by Kutsa.

    Despite Kutsa Rishis strict observances, however, it is said that he once made a mistake in pronouncing a Veda mantram, and for this he was cursed to be a frog in a well. Once his period of atonement had passed, Veda Purusha told him that even while he was a frog, he would remember his previous birth and could be relieved of the curse if he did penance in a pushkarani (holy waters), praying to Soundararaja Perumal at Valmiki kshetram for 48 days. This the Rishi did, the curse was released, and he regained his former body.

     

    The Valmiki kshetram referred to here is Thiru Anbil, which is situated 5 miles east of Lalgudi, in Tiruchy District of Tamil Nadu. It is the birthplace of the great sage, Valmiki, and is one of the 108  divya kshetrams.

  • Sleeping Saptha Rishis In Tombs Quran?

    Understanding History is an arduous task.

    Seven Sleepers,Byzantine Tombs.jpg Seven Sleepers,Byzantine Tombs.Saptha Rishis?

    One must remember that when we record our present times to Posterity and if they were to read it, how would they understand it, if the posterity emerged after a deluge ,were recovering and were evolving from the primitive to the advanced level of Civilisation?

    If their knowledge base is limited they would call all our recorded facts as Myths ,legends or stories born of a vivid imagination.

    As and when they advance technologically and culturally, they would understand the events narrated by us as facts, albeit grudgingly, as no one wants to believe that te other one’s superior.

    Apply the same Logic to our understanding of our past.

    We are the same as any one else in this respect.

    History is a process of exploration and one tries to understand it with available resources by interpreting them with our knowledge base.

    I am trying to piece together such information which has been brushed aside as such by dismissing them as Myths.

    But the evidence from archeology, astronomy and other sources force me  not to dismiss such things as Myths.

    I have been posting articles on these lines, whether it be,

    Tiruvannamalai,India being 3 Billion Years old,

    Tirupati 2200 Million Years  old,

    Sanatana Dharma spread over the world.

    Arabaia was Aravastan,

    Mecca and Kaaba were Shiva temple,

    Noah is the descendant of Manu,

    Vedas ( Rig Veda) were composed in te Arctic,

    Krishna’s son built a city in Russia,

    Russsia was Sthree Varsha,

    There is a Russian version of the Vedas,

    and many more.

    Now, I had through a series of articles conveyed that Arabia was a part of Hindu Empire,Mecca was a Shiva Temple, Prophet Muhammad’s Uncle composed a Hymn on Lord Shiva, 786 is te Flipped OM,Sapthapathi custom of Vedic marriage was prevalent there and the Kings of Arabia were in the habit of awarding bards like the Tamil Kings…..

    Now some ting more.

    Hinduism talks of Seven Sages who do not die at the time of deluge.

    They are the ones who codify which Dharma is to be followed.

    They are Atri ,Bhrigu, Kuthsa, Vasishta, Gautama, Kasyapa and Angirasa.

    There are variations to these names.

    ‘

    Kashyapa, Atri, Vashista, Vishvamitra, Gautama Maharishi, Jamadagni and Bharadvaja.

    The names of the current Saptarshis are: Kashyapa, Atri, Vashista, Vishvamitra, Gautama Maharishi, Jamadagni and Bharadvaja. The Saptarishis keep changing for every Yuga. As per Hindu Shastras, there are four yugas: Krita Yuga / Sat Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dvapara Yuga and Kali Yuga. We are at present in the Kali Yuga, which will last for 432,000 years(we are in 5106 year now in 2015); Dvapara Yuga is twice Kali Yuga, Treta Yuga is thrice Kali Yuga and Krita Yuga is four times Kali Yuga. Over all, 4,320,000 years termed as 1 Chaturyuga. 1000 Chaturyugas make the day of 12 hours for Brahma(Creator) and during another 12 hours, Brahma takes rest and there is no creation during this period. Thus 1 day for Brahma constitutes 1000 Chaturyugas(= 4,320,000,000 years). Thus 1 year constitutes 360 x 4,320,000,000 = 1,555,200,000,000 years; lifespan of Brahma is 100 years = 100 x 1,555,200,000,000 = 155,520,000,000,000 years

    At the time of the deluge, The Matsya, Great Fish, ferried them in a boat, while Satyavrata Manu was instructed to meditate.

    Manu meditated in the Macarene Plateau in Madagascar,Please read my Post on this.

    These Rishis vary for each yuga, aeon.

    Saptha Rishis are also found in the Sky, The Great Bear.

    The legend of these Rishis are found in Russia as well.

    Evidence of seven sleeping men is found in the Koran.

     

    ‘

    It took many centuries of persecutions, wars and massacres for the polytheistic doctrine of trinity to eventually prevail in the Christian world; sura 18 reinstates the historical responsibilities of the early trinitarian church by taking us back to the dark ages of the beginning of the 2rd century when corrupted Christianity didn’t find any other solution but to kill people to impose the concept of Jesus’ deity.

    Mathematical signs hidden behind the story of the companions of the cave.

    Sura 18 tells us one of the most profound stories in the history of mankind: The companions of the cave fell asleep for three centuries before God awoke them. How many companions stayed in the cave has remained a historical enigma in the Quran that very few people have been able to solve decisively; I promise that it will be by the end of the article. One of the key questions is why is there so much importance given to their number as such a number could easily seem insignificant in itself? As usual in the Quran, there is a profoundly meaningful symbolical dimension hidden behind their number, and one of the goals of this study will be to decipher it, God willing.

    Why did they stay specifically “three hundred years and they add nine”, as the Quran puts it literally? We will explain why such a number is written in such a peculiar manner, and also show that the number of years is deeply related to the correct number of companions who remained in the cave.

    The story of the companions of the cave is a multiple meaning sign. The signs will, I believe, strengthen the faith of true believers;

    We will first propose to the reader to read attentively the beginning of sura 18; we will then comment in depth the verses following a logical path which will gradually lead to the unraveling what I believe is one of the great secret of the story of the companions of the cave.

    In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful,

    (18:1) Glory to God, the one who revealed the Book to His servant, and has not allowed in it any deviousness; (18:2) Straightforward, in order to warn about a terrible punishment that will impart from Him; and give good news to the believers who accomplish good deeds that a generous recompense awaits them,(18:3) In which they shall abide eternally. (18:4) And to warn those who say: “God has ascribed a son to Himself”. (18:5) They do not have in this regard any [sound] knowledge, nor do their forefathers. Grievous is the word that comes out of their mouths! All they say is nothing but a lie. (18:6) And you may torment yourself in grief keeping after their footsteps, if they happen not to believe in this narration. (18:7) Indeed, We have turned everything that there is on Earth into a means by which to embellish it, that we may test which one accomplishes the best deeds. (18:8) And indeed, We will make everything on it a barren land.(18:9) Why else have you thought that the companions of the Cave and Al Raqeem were among Our wondrous signs? (18:10) Once the youths retreated to the Cave, they then implored: “May the inherent mercy of your soul be bestowed upon us; help us conduct our affairs in the right way.” (18:11) We then veiled their ears in the Cave for a specific number of years. (18:12) We then awakened them to reveal which of the two groups best calculated how much time they remained. (18:13) We narrate to you this story with absolute truthfulness. Indeed they were youths who believed in their Lord and We increased their guidance. (18:14)We strengthened their hearts when they stood up and proclaimed: “Our Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the Earth. We will never invoke beside Him any other god. Assuredly, we would otherwise have uttered an enormity.” (18:15) These people of ours have set up gods beside Him. Why do they not bring forward any clear evidence to support them! And Who could possibly be more wicked than he who invents a lie about God? (18:16) And now that you have dissociated [yourself] from them and what they worship beside God, seek refuge in the Cave: Your Lord will bestow His mercy upon you, and will provide a solution regarding your [current] situation. (18:17) You can see the rising sun declining away from the right of their cave, and once it set, disappearing from them to the left, while they stand inside in the enclosed space. This is [indeed] among God’s signs. He whom Allah guides is rightly guided; but he whom He lets go astray, you cannot find any guardian to lead him on the Right Way. (18:18) And you [would] think that they [were] awake, while they [were] asleep. And We turn[ed] them over to the right, and to the left, their dog stretching his two forelegs at the entrance. If you had looked at them, you would have turned away from them in haste, as their [sight] would most assuredly have stricken you with terror. (18:19) And similarly, we resurrected them, so they would debate among themselves. One of them took the floor and said (lit. “a speaker among them said”): “How long did you remain [asleep]?”They [who were part of the first group] replied: “We remained [asleep] a day, or part of a day.” They [who were part of the second group] said: “Your Lord knows best how long you remained, so send one of you with this silver coin of yours to the city, and let him find out which food is best there, and bring you thereof some provisions; let him be cautious not to attract attention on any of you. (18:20) Indeed, if they happen to find out about you, they will stone you [to death], or revert you to their religion and in that case you will never attain felicity.” (18:21) And this is how We allowed the secret about them to come to light, in order for them to know that God’s promise is the truth, and that there is no doubt in it whatsoever regarding the [advent of the] Hour. When they had an argument with each other about their case, they said: “Build over them an edifice; their Lord has full knowledge about them”. Those who prevailed regarding their case said: “We will surely erect a place of worship (masjid) over them”. (18:22)They will [subsequently] say: “They were three, the fourth being their dog.”, while [others] will say: “Five, the sixth being their dog”, taking a guess about the hidden aspect of things; and they will say: “Seven, the eighth being their dog.” Say: “My Lord knows their number; none knows them except a few”. So do not argue with them except with a decisive argument, and do not seek information regarding them from anyone.(18:23) And do not ever say about anything: “I will certainly do that tomorrow”, (18:24) Except “If God so wills”. And remember your Lord when you forget and say: “May this guidance, O my Lord, draw me nearer”. (18:25) And they remained in their cave for three hundred solar years, and they add nine. (18:26)Say: “God knows best how long they [exactly] stayed (i.e. in addition to 309 years); to Him belongs the hidden aspect of the heavens and the Earth; how clearly He sees through it and hears! No one other than Him can serve as a Protector, and He doesn’t share anything in His judgment.”(18:27) And recite what has been revealed to you from the book of your Lord. Nothing can modify His words; you will find no refuge to protect you other than Him. (18:28) And may your soul be patient with those who call their Lord in the morning and the evening seeking His face, and do not let your eyes turn away from them, seeking the beauties of this worldly life, and do not obey the one whose heart we have made heedless of our remembrance and succumbed to his desires, while his affairs were driven to excess.

  • Bhrigu From Greece Greek Priests in Rig Veda?

    When people talk of the spread of Sanatana Dharma one is struck by the fact that the Sanatana Dharma was present throughout the world.

    Please read my posts on each Country, Civilization  and its Link to Hinduism Sanatna Dharma.Sanskrit/Tamil.

    Shiva and Dionysus.jpg. Shiva and Dionysus.

    And when one reads the origins of the European and other counties in all the continents we have now, we find that people seem to have just come there from Asia, which incidentally coincides with the great Flood reported in India then called Bharatavarsha and mingled with the people already present there..

    In that case where had these  people who had been residing there, from?

    After all one should have either been in one place or have come from somewhere.

    ( In this sense, all of us are immigrants from somewhere!)

    This is anomaly I have faced when I research into Human migration and read it along with the Sanatana Dharma.

    The only plausible is explanation is that the land mass was different in ancient times and there was one huge landmass which was peopled by one group.

    Please read my Post on Shiva Uma Marriage.

    This group, based on the available evidence is the people from India then called Bharatavarsha.

    The entire landmass was following Sanatana Dharma and there were frequent interactions and occasional  migration from one part of the landmass from another.

    This is the only explanation for the presence of all notable figures of the other Cultures(other than Sanatana Dharma) being found in Hindu texts, ranging from The Vedas, Puranas, Ithihasas and Tamil.

    In one form or the other, names from the history of India are found in these cultures and references and names from those cultures in India.

    Not merely names, archeological sites, language. Customs and culture buttress this view.

    Kindly read my posts on these.

    One more connection of Sanatana  to Greece has been found in the relationship of Dionysus and Shiva.

    Dionysus may be Shiva Himself because He migrated to the West during the great flood while Vaivaswataha Manu, ancestor of Lord Rama moved to Ayodhya.

    Dionysus is found in the Atharva Veda.

    Bhrigu and others are also found in Greece.

    ‘by the pre-historic times the devotees Dionysus’s  used to travel to India since it was a pilgrimage for them. The  priesthood genes got developed into various tribes. So there are the Bhrigu (Bhryges), the Avanti (Avantes), the Kurus (Kuris), the Panchas(Panchaioi) theKoshas (Koes), the Sindhu (Sindu). They originate from different parts of Greece’

    The Kurus and the Panchas originate from Crete and might be the oldest ones. The Avanti from Evoia. A part of them joined with A part of Kuris and created the priesthood Korivantes, who ruled Asia Minor. Bhriges, Koshas and Sindu were from Thrace, an area that covered this time all North Greece. A part of Bhriges moved to Anatolia and a part of Sindu to south cost of black sea. Bhrigu in ancient Greek means “to burn” and it is referred to the sacrificial ritual. Sindu in Thracian dialect means river. So is it possible the oldest name of Indus river deriving from them? Even nowadays in North Greece there is the municipality of Sindos. Most of the western researchers either don’t understand or they don’t want to accept the common roots of those cultures. But as I heard in Harvard they teach that the Sanskrit Soma has common etymological root with Greek saima that means originally the holly blood of the sacrificed God. Saimon was a holy mountain of Dionysus in Thrace, meaning blood..

    Vassiliki States that  the Greek priests moved to Indus valley in prehistoric times (Before Rig Veda). Their names are found in Vedic texts and in ancient Greek Mythology

    There is another possibility. In Rig Veda 7,18,16, it is written that half of humanity ignores Indra, that means that half of humanity the time of Rig Veda was worshiping Indra. Indra means the “Archetypal man“, existing in Ancient Greek as Andra or Andreus with the same meaning. It was epithet of Dionysus and ofDias. Andrineia was a Dionysus’s festival. Some ancient Greek text (been in Batican) says that there were eight Dionysi in ancient times. One of them was the God (non incarnated) and the others were sages. In between them there was an Indian one, who was supposed to be the oldest. In this case, we can make the hypothesis that this cult was given as a revelation to many parts of the earth, carrying a common theological language. But even if the Indian Dionysus originates from Greece, obviously he selected Indus valley as his pilgrimage because it had already a spiritual background.

    Soma means blood and it was the red sweet wine, they were drinking in his sacraments. A traditional kind of wine in Eastern islands of Greece is called Souma and derives from the ancient sacraments. In prehistoric Greek blood is called saima. In ancient Sanskrit Soma is existing also as sauma and souma. It symbolizes the blood of the sacrificed Dionysus or Purusha (Grk: Proseios= rising sun).

    My observation is that the was no Greece as we know it to-day but it was ( as all the other countries)a part of Sanatana Dharma.
