Why Most Hindu Youth Are Ignorant of Their Roots #longthread 🧵 They wear Rudraksha for fashion, but don’t know its power. They light diyas on Diwali, but don’t know who returned home that day. They know how to code in Python, but not chant the Gayatri Mantra. They are brilliant, but rootless. Sharp minds with lost souls. This isn’t their fault - this was planned and covered up. Here’s the bitter truth behind our forgotten memory, A thread that exposes 15 layers of cultural betrayal 👇

Four Vedas (ऋग्वेद सामवेद यजुर्वेद अथर्ववेद) - A Short Introduction #Longthread In Hinduism, Veda refers to a collection of ancient texts that are considered to be the foundation of the religion (Veda means knowledge /wisdom). These texts contain hymns, rituals, and philosophical teachings that have been passed down through generations. The Vedas and Upanishads have had a profound influence on Sanatan Dharma and Ancient Indian culture. They have inspired countless works of art, literature, and music, and continue to be studied and revered by spiritual seekers around the world. There are four Vedas in Hinduism, each with a specific purpose and focus. They are Rigveda: The Rigveda is the oldest of the four Vedas and contains 8 octaves (Ashtakas), there are 64 Chapters and 10,552 hymns /Mantras. The hymns are dedicated to various deities and are used in rituals and prayers. The Rigveda is also known for its philosophical teachings, which include the concept of Brahman, the ultimate reality, and the importance of following dharma, or moral duty. Rig Veda gives knowledge of science, matter of the universe like sun, moon, air, fire, body etc. Yajurveda: The Yajurveda contains 40 Chapters, there are 1975 Mantras /hymns and rituals that are used in sacrificial ceremonies. The offerings which were given in the fire kindled in the altar were known as 'Yaag'. The prose mantras composed for this purpose are called 'Yajus'. It is divided into two parts; the Shukla Yajurveda and the Krishna Yajurveda. The Shukla Yajurveda contains hymns and prayers, while the Krishna Yajurveda contains instructions for performing rituals. Yajurved gives knowledge of all the deeds and duties to be performed by men, women, guru, students, leaders, king, agriculturist etc., Samaveda: There are 27 Chapters containing 1875 Mantras, primarily a collection of hymns that are used in rituals and prayers. These hymns are often chanted, and their musical qualities are emphasized. The mantras were recited in two ways- simple recitation as per the meter or melodiously like a song. These melodies are compiled in Samveda. The Samaveda is also known for its emphasis on meditation and spiritual practices. This veda is the origin of Indian Classical Music. Samved gives knowledge how to worship God who gives peace and long happy life etc. In this way, details of Yoga philosophy, qualities, supreme deeds and nature of the God are also given. Atharvaveda: The Atharvaveda contains across 20 Stems (Kandangal), there are 5977 Mantras/ hymns and rituals that are used in everyday life. It includes spells and incantations for various purposes, such as healing, protection, and prosperity. This is the compilation of mantras meant for worldly desires. A manifestation of emotions is seen in atharvaveda. The Atharvaveda is also known for its teachings on ethics and morality. Along with pacificatory rites, some black magic is also included in this veda. Atharvaved gives details of God, medical science and details of medicine etc. Total number of Mantras in all the four Vedas put together are 20379. Certain mantras of the Rigveda are repeated in other 3 Vedas too. For example, over 1200 mantras of the Rig Veda are repeated in Atharva Veda. Each Veda is comprised of 4 Parts, namely Mantra Samhitas / hymns Brahmanas ( meaning and explanation of the Mantras) Aranyakas (these explain the philosophy behind the ritual practices mentioned in the vedas) Upanishads (they are commentary on Vedas and thus contain the essence of Hinduism). Each of the Vedas also contains Upanishads, which are philosophical texts that explore the nature of reality and the self. There are over 200 Upanishads, but the most well-known are the principal Upanishads, which are 12 in number. These Upanishads are:

Every Hindu Must Know - How Puja Connects Body and Soul #longthread 🧵 People think puja is just tradition. They say it’s about lighting a lamp, offering flowers, doing namaste.

Significance of Kalash (कुंभ) in Hindu Rituals #Longthread In Hinduism, Puja means (Sanskrit) Pu means Puto Ja means Jayate so it implies the method of purification. As such, Puja is a ritualistic procedure to prepare the body for divinization. According to the Puja Vidhana, Puja is of three types such as Para Puja, Apara Puja and Parapara Puja. Para Puja is the highest form of Divine Consciousness in which worship is performed in the mental state through imagination and the Puja materials are the abstract objects of the inner body which are offered in the subtle form to the presiding deity inside one’s body. The Hindus regard it as Atma Peetha Pujanam. Apara Puja is the worship of the gross forms known as Saguna Upasana in which gross Puja materials are offered to the deities. But Parapara Puja is the combination of both assimilating both gross and subtle forms. Sthula Upasana or Apara Puja is important to purify the five gross elements of the body while Para Puja is essential for the purification of the inner bodily parts for the union of the Jivatma, individual Soul with Paramatma, Supreme Soul. Through these practices such a stage of contemplation happens when the Sadhaka realizes, आत्मा त्वं गिरिजा मतिः सहचराः प्राणाः शरीरं गृहं पूजा ते विषयोपभोगरचना निद्रा समाधिस्थितिः । संचारः पदयोः प्रदक्षिणविधिः स्तोत्राणि सर्वा गिरो यद्यत्कर्म करोमि तत्तदखिलं शंभो तवाराधनम् ।। According to Agama there are four places for worship known as catuṣ-sthana. (a) Kumbha or Kalasha (b) Maṇḍala - geometric design filled in with colour. (c) Bimba/ Murti - an icon or image. (d) Agni - fire The kumbha is the indispensible accessory to all Tantric worship where invocation is performed. This jar is also known as kalaśa and comprises of a metal or clay jar decorated with a string of three colours red, white and black; it is filled with water and then spices (parimala dravya) are added along with precious stones (or a coin), herbs, and a betel leaf & nut. The mouth of the kumbha is covered with five / Seven leaves from the five sacred trees or just five leaves from one of the sacred trees. A coconut coloured yellow with turmeric is placed over the mouth of the jar. There are four dots (bindus) placed at each of the cardinal points on the outside of the kumbha, a kurca [bunch] of 24 darbha blades is placed in the jar and another kurcha of five blades tied with a special knot (brahma-granthi) is placed over the top of the whole kumbha. This decorated kumbha is then placed on a bed of raw rice on a lotus design. Square at the bottom = earth, circle = water, triangle pointed up = fire, crescent = air and sunya atop - ⊙, कलशस्य मुखे विष्णु कंठे रुद्र समाश्रिता: मूलेतस्य स्थितो ब्रह्मा मध्ये मात्र गणा स्मृता:। A gopuram is a monumental entrance tower, usually ornate, with odd number (3, 5, 7, and 9) of kalasa on top, at the entrance of a Hindu temple, in the Dravidian architecture of the Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Karnataka, and Telangana states of Southern India. Kalasa is Panchaloha-metal called Pancha-patra vase filled with water, covered with 5-mango-leaves (grabha-patra) with Nava-dhanyas, and a coconut atop in Hindu ritual symbolizes God: invite all the holy rivers of Ganga, yamuna, godavari, saraswati, narmada, sindhu, kaveri into this water and all the gods (Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Shakti, Ganesh). The oceans as well are seated in various locations on the pot, so are all the vedas (Rigveda, yajurveda, samaveda). Pray to Gayatri for bringing peace.
