नागपंचमी

इस वर्ष 23 जुलाई का दिन खास रहेगा। इस दिन नागपंचमी और कालसर्प का योग एक साथ बन रहा है। ज्योतिष के अनुसार यह योग 93 साल बाद बन रहा है।

वैसे तो यह कभी-कभी कुछ सालों में बन जाता है। जैसे 2008 में बना था, लेकिन राहु-केतु के साथ कालसर्प योग और नागपंचमी का संयोग 93 साल बाद बना है। इससे पहले इस तरह का योग 10 जुलाई 1919 को बना था, लेकिन तब भी यह योग शनिवार को नहीं बना। राहु का मुख्य (अधी) देवता काल है और उप देवता (प्रत्यागी) सर्प है। इस दिन सोमवार भी है तो इन योगों से इसका महत्व और अधिक बढ़ जाता है।


पूरे भारत भर में नाग पूजा प्राचीन काल से चली आ रही है। श्रावण शुक्ल पंचमी के दिन 'नागपंचमी का पर्व' परंपरागत श्रद्धा एवं विश्वास के साथ मनाया जाता है। इस दिन नागों का पूजन किया जाता है। इस दिन नाग दर्शन का विशेष माहात्म्य ह
ै।

इस दिन सांप मारना मना है। पूरे श्रावण माह विशेष कर नागपंचमी को धरती खोदना निषिद्ध है। इस दिन व्रत करके सांपों को खीर खिलाई व दूध पिलाया जाता है। कहीं-कहीं सावन माह की कृष्ण पक्ष की पंचमी को भी नागपंचमी मनाई जाती है। खास तौर पर इस दिन सफेद कमल पूजा में रखा जाता है।

आइए आपको कालसर्प शांति के लिए अपनाए जाने वाले कुछ सामान्य उपाय बताते हैं-

आप घर के मुख्य द्वार पर चांदी का पत्तर अथवा स्वास्तिक लगा सकते हैं।
इसके अलावा एक पानी वाला नारियल अपने ऊपर से घुमाकर जल में प्रवाहित कर दें। अगर आपके घर में मंदिर है तो उसमें मोर का पंख रखें।

साथ ही नाग गायत्री मंत्र -
'ॐ नव कुलाय विध्महे विषदन्ताय धीमहि तन्नो सर्पः प्रचोदयात्॥'

इस मंत्र का 3,7,5 अथवा ग्यारह माला जप करें__________




नागपंचमी मनाते हुए इस देश को बरसों हो गये पर आज भी नाग और सांप के नाम पर इतने भ्रम फैले हैं कि देखकर आश्चर्य होता है_______

जो भ्रम इस देश में फैले हैं वह यह है कि

-सारे सांप और नाग जहरीले होते हैं।
-सांप और नाग दूध पीते हैं।
-नाग बीन की आवाज पर नाचता है।



इनका सच यह है कि -


-नब्बे फीसदी से अधिक सांप और नाग जहरीले नहीं होते।

-सांप और नाग दूध पी नहीं सकते क्योंकि उनके मुख में अंदर चीज ले जाने की क्षमता नहीं होती। वह निगलते हैं इसलिये चूहे या मैंढक को सीधे मुंह में लेकर पेट में निगल जाते हैं। ?

-सपेरा बीन बजाते हुए स्वयं भी नृत्य करता है जिसे देखकर उसका पालतू सांप या नाग नृत्य करता है। सांप या नाग को कान नहीं होते वह शरीर की धमनियों में जमीन पर होने वाले स्वर की अनुभूति कर अपना मार्ग चलता है

Ghosts

Ghosts and spirits have always interested human beings. The feeling of being closer to someone unknown or someone from the “other world” has always aroused a sense of fear and curiosity at the same time. Whether there is life after death is a question that noone has an answer for. Every now and then we hear stories about ghosts and haunted places. Do they really exist? well, it actually depends on you. If you believe in them, they're there. Ghosts are nothing to be afraid of, ghosts are just like us. Ghosts are actaully dead spirits that has no where to stay (this means that when a person dies and the body is burned and placed in a place like burried, ghosts are spirits that are not buried or have no where to stay). Some humans are good and some are bad right? Ghosts are like that too, some are good some are bad. Not all ghosts are bad. You might be surprised to find out that in a poll conducted by CBS news that themajority of people believe in ghosts, 48% said ghosts do exists and 45% said that they don't. Religions teach us that there is anafterlife. We are taught, irregardless of religious background that we have souls and after we die our souls go to some form of afterlife. This place can vary with religion and is too involved to cover here, but suffice to say that religion teaches us there is an afterlife. About the same percentage of people believe in life after death as do believe in ghosts, but what is interesting is that almost 80% of people believe we have souls. So if we have souls, when we die where do these souls go? And if we die and our souls don't go to heaven where do they end up? One theory is that spirits know and understand that they are dead and ghosts don't.This understanding of death is necessary for our souls, or the energy that survives our physical death needs to pass on to the next plane of existence. This question is still to be answered.. n m waiting just like u all for the answer..

Our full love and support should always be wid dem at every moment of life.. Whtever we r.. we r coz of dem.. Our individuality.. our position.. our success.. wud not have been anything widout them.. We r because of our parents.. Becoming old does not make them any different.. Its just that they enter into an other stage of life.. where they need us the most..

I m ready to die for my parents.. And also ready to be their protector in any difficult phase of their life..
Hope u all do the same..
