Eka Bilvam ShivaArpanam There is nothing that one can ignore in this nature because it is all pervaded by the supreme God.  Each element of nature whether it is men or animals or plants/trees, hills or rivers etc. depends on each other and one cannot survive without the other. They complement each other for their survival and existence.  So much so, plants and trees are an integral part of human or animal life and without plants/trees a man or an animal cannot survive. Each part of the plant like roots, stems, bark, leaves and flowers are used in Hindu rituals. Apart from spiritual significance there is also an element of health consciousness and environmental protection involved in its usage. Even today these leaves/herbs are very much used in preparing Ayurvedic medicines used for curing several diseases. Apart from this they also act as a Divine way of controlling pollution, be it water or air.      In Hinduism, plants/trees are worshiped and are tre...

SANGAMESWARAM - DaAru Linga Kshethra ( DharmaRaAja pratishta ) Sangameswara Kshetra also known as Nivrutti Sangama is one of the important pilgrimage mentioned by Saint Sri VaAdiraAjaru in his magnum opus "Theertha Prabandha" (in Poorva Prabandha). It is a sacred confluence of Seven holy rivers meeting viz. Krishna, Veni, BhavanaAshini, Tunga, Bhadra, Bheemarathi, Malaprabha. It is located in Kurnool district of Andhra Pradesha about 22 km from Nandikotkuru. This holy kshethra has been visited by Pancha Pandavas (Mahabharata) during their Aranyavaasa where Dharma Raja made pratishta of Lord Shiva Linga which is known as Sangameswara. Rarity of this kshethra is apart from being a Sangama Kshethra, Shiva Linga is DaAru (wooden) Linga. As per legends when DharmaRaja wanted to install Shiva Linga, he sent Bheemasena to KaAshi to bring a Shiva Linga. But, since it was getting delayed for muhurta, Dharmaraja cut a nearby Neem Tree and with its branch installed Shiva Linga which is...

Pradosha or Pradosham is a term that we frequently come across in Hindu calendar (Panchangam). Originated from the concept of Time; Pradosha is a micro constituent of Kaalachakra (TIME) that occurs every day 1½ hrs before Sunset (twilight time) that is reckoned as Pradosha called as Dina Pradosham. If it is associated with Trayodasi (13 th lunar day of both Sukla & Krishna Paksha) it is called Maha Pradosham. Sometimes it may occur on Dwaadasi day itse lf when Trayodasi thithi is present (prevailing) around Pradosha. If it is associated with Monday it is called Soma Pradosha, if it is associated with Tuesday it is called Bhouma Pradosha and if it is associated with Saturday it is called Shani Pradosha. Pradosha is a Sanskrit word (Pra + Dosha). Pra means conspicuous; prominent; notorious; great; noticeable; unique and Dosha means evil. Pradosha means great evil. As per electional astrology Pradosha time is not an auspicious time. Generally Pradosha time is associa...

Worship of Lord Shiva is prevailing in Hindu philosophy since time immemorial perhaps since Vedic times on par with Lord Vishnu. There are several historical and pouranic references to the worship of Lord Shiva and we find several divine personalities having worshiped Lord Shiva on different occasions for various reasons. Lord Vishnu in his incarnations (human form) also worshiped Lord Shiva for Loka Kalyana; welfare of the mankind and to maintain the loka-reeti (local conventions). Without delving into scriptural intricacies let us try to understand Lord Shiva the modest God in modest form.     Who is Lord Shiva? Shiva is son of Lord Brahma ( Virinchi ), instantly emerged out ( Sadhyojatha ) from centre of his eye brows at the time of creation. Soon after His birth Shiva started crying/roaring fiercely ( Roudra ) hence called Rudra ( Rodanaat-Rudra ).  One of the Trinity Lords (Brahma-Vishnu-Maheshwara) ruling Thamasa guna (Ahankaara Tattva); Shiva is entru...
