Education, which cannot give peace to the soul or cannot give the knowledge of the Self and the inner satisfaction, is not education. Education, which cannot wipe the tears of others, known or unknown, is not education. Education is understanding the situation - leading the life that can make the life, the Life Divine, where the ultimate goal of the life is the God-Realisation.

THREE STAGES OF HUMAN EVOLUTION

- Animal to Man ( Mooladhara to Anahata )
- Man to Man ( Anahata to Ajna )
- Man to Divine ( Ajna to Sahasrara )

GOLDEN AGE / SATYUGAM
During 2012, the Sun, Earth and Karthigai star, will be in alignment resulting in more of the grace light entering the Earth plane. Thereafter, it is predicted that the Karthigai - Lord Murugan energy will be responsible for the transformation of the planet and of the genetic evolution of the human species into Gods and Goddesses status. This energy will allow humans to return to their original blueprint. The most important thing to remember about these new energies is to stay conscious and match our frequency to receieve it through proper worships, rituals, yoga and mystical knowledge according to great siddha masters.

ANCIENT SIDDHA MASTERS
The Siddhas were scientists, particularly in their investigations into chemistry, astronomy, plants, human anatomy and physiology. They applied their extraordinary powers, developed through intensive yogis practices, to research these areas on atomic and universal levels without the use of sophisticated equipment. In the long linege of Siddhas, one does not know when they came into earth's existance. Whether they still exist or are they Ascended masters teaching humanity the various sciences and philosophy, will perhaps, be never known.


SIDDHAS TEACHINGS
In the teachings of the Siddhas the human body is a temple of God. Man is a miniature representation of Paramatma or Supreme Intelligence. The purpose of life is to realize God.To manifest that realization in all planes of existence.

SIDDHAS MEDICINE
Using special salts as well as herbal formulae the Siddhas developed the unique science of rejuvenation, known as "kaya kalpa", which allowed them to prolong their lives until the long term effects of Kriya Kundalini Pranayama and similar yogic practices could complete the process of transformation, bringing about physical immortality.

Siddhas followed the ancient Guru- disciple apprenticeship method. They revealed their secrets to those students whom they felt could be trusted not to misuse the science. The science of Kaya kalpa was limited to those great sages. who were prepared for the uplifting of humanity. Ayurveda came much later as discipline.

SIDDHAS SECRET KNOWLEDGE
The Siddhas had vast knowledge of human anatomy. Their single-minded concentration was unique. It was was achieved with perfection. Their literature on medicine was extensive. The Siddhas were a close-knit community and preferred to preserve their knowledge. They reduced this knowledge to codes and symbols and their literature was steeped in mysticism. Only a Siddha can decode the writings of a Siddha. A beginner could not gain any appreciable knowledge without the Siddha accepting him as a student.

THE SCIENCE OF YOGA
Siddhas such as Thirumoolar, Agastyar, Boganathar, and many more had realized their capacity for experiencing and manifesting the Divine. This was not only limited to the spiritual plane of existence. The Cosmic Spirit would descend into the more lower and gross planes of consciousness, the intellectual, mental, and physical bodies. This for us is a limiting thought as our yogic parasites are not as intense as the Siddha. With progressive surrender of their being , their ego and their very lives the Divine would indeed transform them. With intense practices of various Kriyas, hatha and bhakti yoga, meditation, mantras and Kriya Kundalini Pranayama they merged with the Cosmic Spirit . This was race against time as the natural breakdown of cells, catabolism, had to be reversed to anabolism to prolong the extent of their age. They had to complete the Divine transformation. With Kriya Kundalini yoga and using specific herbal and mineral salts they were able to prolong their youth for the Ultimate transformation.

SIDDHANTHAM
The Universe was created out of a Cosmic Thought . No civilization be it the Inca, Atlantis or Egyptian had such a precise knowledge as the Siddhas. They were proficient in the science of longevity or deathless state, alchemy, medicine and physics.

Vaikunda Ekadasi : Heaven [sorgam] Will Open on Dec 29th 2017

Heaven's Gates will Open
~ By Vijayakumar Alagappan www.iksacademy.com



Vaikunda Ekadasi is the 11th Waxing Moon that falls in the Tamil month of Margazhi. Vaikundam is the sacred abode of Lord Maha Vishnu. The Vaishnava traditions hail Vaikundam as the ultimate place to enter and rest. This day is the day to open the gates to cross over into salvation. 

There are 24 Ekadasi or 11th Moons in a year and Vaikunda Eakadasi is the most powerful and looked forward to the most as many seek spiritual redemption, or rescue from the current confusion and suffering; a place of peace.

It is believed that if one observes Vaikunda Ekadasi then the gates to heaven are kept open for when that person's soul leaves the
physical body. The soul ends its cycle of death and rebirth by attaining the ultimate salvation, free from this mortal coil.


As it occurs in Margazhi, the month of 'Twilight in Heaven' it is seen as the time the gods rest and when we pray earnestly and sincerely, it has more effect on this day as the spiritual energy will come to us more directly. This Margazhi month is a divine and highly spiritual month when the mind and soul can turn to god within.

Vaikunda Ekadasi in cosmic terms
Vaikunda ekadasi is the day of cosmic significance that of the earth coming in line with the galactic centre, Sagittarius (Dhanusu rasi) and the cosmic centre. In other words, on this day, the earth will be at the outer most point from the centre of our galaxy and the nearest point to the outer space from where we, the entire systen of ours evolved and is moving outward. 

Keep the Gates Open
It is believed that if one observes Vaikunda Ekadasi then the gates to heaven are kept open for when that person's soul leaves the physical body. The soul ends its cycle of death and rebirth by attaining the ultimate salvation, free from this mortal coil.

No Sleep
Staunch Vaishnava devotees who observe Vaikunda Ekadasi fasting do not sleep. They spend the whole night at Vishnu temples or by singing prayers or listening stories dedicated to Lord Vishnu.

Fasting on Vaikunda Ekadasi
Though there are 24 Ekadashis in a year, observing fast on Vaikunda Ekadasi day offers equal benefits of observing all the other 23 Ekadashis during the year. Devotees observe a complete fast on the day, awake during the whole night and offer prayers such as Vishnu Ashtotharam and Vishnu Sahasranamam Stotra of Lord Vishnu. However, if it is not possible to fast completely, one can consume fruits and milk. Food made from rice is to be avoided during the day. The fast is to be broken on the following day. It is believed that even a partial or total abstinence from food on Ekadasi is rewarded with bliss. You can also opt for a partial fast by avoiding food made of rice. There is no need to observe total fast, just be hungry and alert. The spiritual energy at this time comes directly. Be alert.


Significance of Fasting on the 11th Tithi / Moon
According to scientific research, it is known that the air pressure on the earth varies to extreme limits on both the new moon (Amavasai) and the full moon (Pournami) day. This is because of the orbital path combination of the sun, moon and earth.

This can be observed by the change in the nature of the tidal waves on the new moon and full moon days. The waves are very high and rough, but from the next day onwards, the waves become calm, an indication that the pressure has also receded.

No Sleep : Staunch Vaishnava devotees who observe Vaikunda Ekadasi fasting do not sleep. They send the whole night at Vishnu temple or by singing, prayers or listening stories dedicated to Lord Vishnu. 

Note : One should avoid consuming rice, grains, beans, cereals, certain vegetables and sices on the day. Foods allowed when artial fasting on Ekadasi includes fruits, milk, nuts and root vegetables.

The significance of 11th tithi fasting can be explained in 2 ways:
1) According to science, it takes about 3-4 days for the food that we eat today to reach our brain (for the brain to understand the food intake). Now, if we eat light/fast on 11th tithi days, that intake will reach the brain correspondingly on the New moon/full moon day.

2) Another explanation for 11th thiti fasting is that compared to any other day of the moon cycle, atmospheric pressure is lowest on 11th tithi days. Thus, this is the best time to fast and cleanse the bowel system. If we fast on any other day (except on Tuesday, Friday & Shasthi Tithi days), the high pressure/strain may damage our system.

ekadasi vrata samam vrata nasti jagattraye
anicchaya'pi yat krtva gatir evam vidha'vayoh
ekadasi vratam ye tu bhakti bhavena kurvate
na jane kim bhavet tesam vasudeva anukampaya
(Padma Purana)

In the three worlds, there is no kind of fasting which is even comparable to the Ekadasi fast. Even if one performs this fast without a proper attitude, he achieves the Supreme Abode. Anyone who fasts on Ekadasi day, with full devotion, what happens to him by the mercy of the Supreme Lord, I can not say (how much merit gets cannot be described).

Saturn Transit effect For 12 Rasis - Sani Payerchi from 17th Dec 2017 till 28th March 2020



Image result for lord saneeswara images


Planets play the roles of God, Guru and Judge
God - Sun (Surya) : God has been worshipped, because He is the life-giver, energy-provider, sustainer of all beings on the planet earth, remover of darkness of the soul and mind and provider of inner light and happiness. In Tantric Astrology Sun symbolizes God. The Sun-God, that pervades the whole Universe, is presented for us, the Earthlings, as the Sun-god that shines its benevolence upon us, by giving us days and nights, seasons, rain and shines and also the immense essential heat energy to make the life on Earth possible. An exalted Sun well placed in the horoscope with other favourable factors removes darkness.

Guru - Jupiter (Guru) : The Guru is worshipped, as he provides us with the knowledge, wisdom to do good deeds and thus be closer to God. He is considered second only to God. He is the messenger between God and man. Jupiter is the great guru or the second Sun. The guru shows us the right path.

Judge - Saturn (Sani) : The Judge weighs our deeds and misdeeds, and gives judgment in accordance with our Karma. He is symbolized by the woman with a blindfold in her eyes and a balance in one hand and a sword in the other. If our good deeds outweigh our bad, the sword does not fall on us, but if bad deeds outweigh our good, then we are punished. Saturn is given this great distinction, because he carries out the law of Karma.

Significance of Saturn Transit
Saturn is the slowest moving planet. It takes 30 years for him to complete one cycle of his revolution through the 12 zodiacs. He spends roughly about 2 ½ years in each sign.

There is no reason to fear Saturn and an average lethargic type may, of course, experience Saturn as a hard task-master. And for someone Saturn may feel demanding – and slow with its rewards. But there will be rewards, eventually. They may be slow in coming, because Saturn first wants to test you to be sure that you are in earnest, that you will not revert back to your old lazy tricks. You have to have deeper motives, a true desire to grow even when there are no carrots dangling in front of you. You have to show Saturn that you are doing something for doing’s sake, not because you are expecting Saturn to pat you on your back.

The predictions given below for each Rashi is general in nature. Do not be afraid if Saturn is adversely placed for your Rashi. Please check your Dasha & Bhukti currently operating and other planetary movements during the period. If the Dasha & Bhukti is good, many adverse predictions may not happen or will be mitigated. If you have further doubts please consult your family astrologer.

Lord Sani
According to Hindu mythology Shani (Saturn) is the son of Surya the Sun God and grand son of Sage Kashyapa and Aditi. A Demi God, Shani was born to Lord Sun and Chaaya (illusory wife). Lord Yama (Yama-Dharmaraja) and Goddess Yamuna (River Goddess) are His siblings born to Surya and His wife Sanjna Devi. Tapathi (River Goddess) is his sister.

Lord Shani is worshipped and adored in Hindu religion, by people from all walks of life and has also become a point of contention for their grief and suffering. More than anything else we find millions of people visiting Navagraha temples, rather out of scare, performing austerities to appease Lord Shani. He is considered as a personification of restrictions, adversities and limitations. Regarded as the most dreaded planet for obstruction, distress and calamity, people believe that if there is one, planet who can make a king out of a pauper and vice versa, it is Shani. He is more misunderstood and also more confusing entity in our mundane existence.

When we look at the celestial role of Lord Shani, He is a Dandanaadhikari with a task of dispensation of justice according to one’s Karma phala and punishing the evil doers. It is more or less like a Home portfolio and Lord Shani is absolutely unbiased in this regard. Perhaps, Lord Shani is the best teacher in life. There is an ancient maxim "Dandam Dasa Gunam Bhaveth". When all the methods of mending a person are exhausted like Sama, Dana, Bedha, and the person doesn't heed and keeps on doing evils, as a last resort the Nature takes its own course and invokes the Dandam (Stick) in the form of Lord Shani (Saturn). No doubt, He is a task master. He is an agent of Karma and an administrator of Karmic law. He is only discharging the role given to him. The best way to get discharged from Karma is to encounter it and Lord Shani is the best agent to help us in this regard. Saturn reminds that in the Universal Karmic law everyone has to pay for their misdeeds.

Saturn rules over food grains, agriculture, engineering, metals (iron), mines (coal), blue/black colour, hills, forests, valleys, sesame seeds, Shami tree, Sisira Ruthu, Vaata tattva (windy in nature), physical disability, knees, ankles, thighs and muscles etc. Saturn will be strong during night time, Dakshinayana, and Krishna paksha (dark half) of the month and on Saturday. His direction is towards west. Above list is only indicative but not exhaustive.

Tantric way to appease this planets for their blessing
Saturn - Learn to be humble, work hard and serve others as a duty, without expecting nothing in return. Practice concentration, austerities, fasting and seclusion for spiritual strengthening. Serve the sick, afflicted and poor people. Visit to your favourite temple every week and spend at least 1 hour in the temple.
 
Chant Hmmm Saniswaraya Pothri / Shram for 108 times every Saturday to connect Lord Saniswaran and receive His Blessing

Here, one will be relieved positively from the evil effects of the first part of 2 ½ years of Sade-sati. Bathing in the holy waters of river Surabi is said to redeem one from the clutches of Saturn.

Receive Your Ancestral Blessing during Mahalaya Paksha 6th Sept - 19th Sept 2017

The secret of overcoming your problems!


According to Siddhas (South Indian Mystics) another main reason for all of our everyday problems besides planets is the departed spirits of our ancestors. Our role is that we should constantly connect to the departed ancestors to live a peaceful life.

Our departed forefathers / ancestors cannot come to this world whenever they think, except on Amavasai ( New Moon ), the starting day of every month and during Malaya Paksha. So they all come in sookshma (means not visible to naked eyes) dehas and if we offer them the sesame (gingili) and water they accept that, and bless us directly.

Only once in a year a great celebration takes place in the Pitra loka (ancestral world) and only for 2 weeks. It is called the “Mahalaya Amavasai/ Fortnight”. This year it commences on the 17th of September 2016, right after the full moon day and ends on the Mahalaya New Moon day, which is on the 30th of September 2016. This two week’s period is the most important period to appreciate your departed ancestors.

Your ancestors exist in another dimension called Pitru lokam (world of ancestors), and for them to move on to a better plane they need your help. Departed spirits look to their living descendants for offerings especially on Amavasai (New Moon) days

A Special Time for the Ancestors
The Siddhas says, important rites for the ancestors should be performed through out the year. These should occur on the anniversary of the day of death, during new moon (Amavasai), period of mahalaya paksha and other special days for tarpanam ritual (96 days).

Mahalaya paksha is considered the most auspicious time for ancestors ritual.
Our ancient Siddhas understood that honoring ancestors through tarpanam ritual keeps us living with good health, wealth, prosperity and enlightenment.

Offerings made during mahalaya paksha are said to reach the ancestors directly due to a special boon granted to humanity by Lord Yama, the cosmic purveyor of death. The origin of mahalaya paksha can traced back to the story of Karna, the renowned hero of the Mahabharata who, when he ascended to the celestial world after death, was rewarded with gold and silver for his many charitable deeds performed on earth, but was not offered food. Much to his embarassment, he was made to understand that, while on Earth, he had not performed any offerings of food to anyone. Dismayed by this revelation, he prayed to Lord Yama that he might return to Earth to recompense for this neglect.

Lord Yama did indeed allow him to return to Earth, but only for fourteen days. During that short period, which has come to be known as mahalaya paksha, Karna nourished the brahmins and the poor with a great abundance of food. As a result of this penance, Lord Yama granted certain boons to all humanity. By Yama's decree, all souls who encountered a premature or unnatural death would benefit from all mahalaya paksha rites.



HALLOWEEN NIGHT FESTIVAL

To attain incredible blessings you can perform Tarpanam (offerings) in Sivan temples or at home by yourself during any of these fourteen days, depending on the area that you perceive is the weakest for you. For instance, if your finances are not in good shape, then performing Tarpan on the first day of the Mahalaya Fortnight will bring you special blessings. For the best results, you could perform Tarpanam on all the 14 days, to ensure that you get a facelift to all the aspects of your life! You can also throughout the 14 days of the Mahalaya Paksha, give food, clothes, shoes, sandals and to the poor and the disadvantaged.  Fasting during the new moon day also will alert your consciousness to be in communion with their spirits.

For peaceful and successful life your departed ancestors must be worshipped and remembered by performing Pitru Puja or honouring of the past souls during the time of Pitru paksha ( much like the Chinese Hungry Ghost Festival and American Halloween Festival )

Significance of the 15 day ritual: 
The Maha Ancestral ritual spans for 15 days starting from the 1st Moon day till the New Moon day, and each day is ruled by a particular Thithi/ Moon Phase.

    MAHALAYA PAKSHA OFFERING

Clarifications

Tharpanam is done only for departed beings, that is, those who have passed on. Tharpanam is not done for those who are alive.
If you don't know the name of an ancestor, that is fine. Just state the relationship alone and offer tharpanam for that ancestor.

Can one do tharpanam for more than 12 departed ancestors?
The answer is yes. But that is a more advanced procedure.

When to do Tharpanam?
Tharpanam should be done at sunrise. There is a tradition that says that tharpanam should be done at noon. If this is your tradition, please do follow that.

Where to do Tharpanam?
You can do tharpanam right in the comfort of your home.
But it is that much more effective to do it in temples and on the banks of sacred rivers.
If you can do tharpanam in the Pitru Moksha temples and sacred spots, that would be the best.(Rameswaram Temple is one of the most powerful spot for tarpanam ritual)

If your ancestors are not resting peacefully, then they can cause much disruption and hardship in your life.

Can the son do tharpanam if the father is alive?
The most serious misconception regarding tharpanam is the idea that if the father is alive, the son should not do tharpanam. The son has a pitru debt just as the father does. So it is important to shed this misconception rightaway. The father can do pitru tharpanam and so can the son and the son's son. In fact, if all three do it together, the pitrus will be very pleased!

Can women do tharpanam?
Women can do pitru tharpanam just as well as men. Think of this key point: If there are no sons in a family, does that mean the ancestors should be starved of tharpanam? The answer is NO. The daughters can certainly do tharpanam. Preferably women should use white sesame seeds in their tharpanam.

The Process of Rebirth and The Cycle of Birth and Death
The ancestors must always be worshipped first…Hell and Heaven is right here among the species…we all must account for our actions-if you bark at people you will become a dog in the next life or gossip a lot will become a frog…when these ancestors are caught up in the lower levels of life then the cycle of birth and death ceased, and women in the family are unable to give birth to babies…causing extinction of the family.

TO AVOID CHILDLESS COUPLES AND GUARANTEE SUCCESSFUL LIFE THE ANCESTORS MUST BE WORSHIPPED AND REMEMBERED BY PERFORMING PITRU PUJA OR HONOURING OF THE PAST SOULS DURING THE TIME OF PITRU PAKSHA. ( MUCH LIKE THE CHINESE HUNGRY GHOST FESTIVAL AND AMERICAN HALOWEEN FESTIVAL)

Donate Food in Plenty for Needy People during Mahalaya Paksha

Donate Food in Plenty for Needy People during Mahalaya from 6th Sept - 20th September 2017 and Receive Immeasurable Blessings from Your Departed Ancestors

The fifteen days after the Full Moon (Krishna Paksha) in the lunar month Purattasi (Mid September - Mid Oktober) is known as Mahalaya Paksha. All our departed ancestors come and stay on the earth plane for 15 days in a year and annual rites for the deceased is performed during these days, either on the Tithi (day corresponding to the death) of the parents or on the Mahalaya Amavasai day (New Moon Day),. This practice is prevalent among all Hindus, all over the world.

Do you know even Lord Shiva Himself is doing Tharpanam rites for His devotee King Vallala till now ? There once lived a King, Vallala Maharaja, who was deeply devoted to Lord Arunachaleswara and renovated and built a huge tower in Arunachaleswarar Temple called Vallala Maharaja Gopuram. As the King was heirless he prayed to Lord Shiva for a son. The Lord said that He (the Lord) would Himself be his son. True to His word, the Lord performed the death rites for this King as one of the duties of a son is to perform annual Tharpanam rites for the deceased father. Even today after 600 years, on every Masi Magham (the Tamil month Masi when the star Magham is on the ascent) the anniversary of the day of the death of the King, the Lord (i.e. Lord Arunachaleswarar Temple) performs the annual Tharpanam rites for the King! When Lord Shiva Himself giving importance and doing Tharpanam rites till now, why must we ignore this duty to our departed ancestors... ~ Vijayakumar Alagappan www.iksacademy.com

It is generally believed that performing rituals for departed ancestors during this period, can even subtitute the annual ritual performance, on exact death day. During this forthnight, no auspicious function should be performed, since pitrus are invoked during this time.
