  • Why did Lord Krishna did not kill Duryodhana when he was removing saree of Draupadi?

    When Duryodhana was removing the sari of the Draupadi devi, Lord Krishna gave unlimited sari and saved the disgrace of Draupadi in the courtyard.

  • Why did Yudhisthira put his wife Draupadi at stake in the game of dice?

    There are many angles in which we have understood this episode. If the case is that Yudhisthira stakes Draupadi first in the game of dice, then he does not have ethics. Knowing well that it would be unjust to stake one’s wife (whom he has sworn to protect during the marriage oaths) from the words […]

  • Why Yudhistira who is the dharmaraja stake his wife in the gamble?

    Knowing that it would be unjust to stake his wife whom he has sworn to protect during the marriage (husband takes a oath during the marriage ceremony that “For Righteous reasons, financial reasons, personal desire reasons, or spiritual reasons, I will not leave her”), Yudhistira stakes himself first before staking Draupadi. If Yudhisthira stakes Draupadi […]

  • Why Shiv bhagavan who is all powerful did not put back the original head of Ganeshaji?

  • Indra is the supreme God in Prevedic time and Hindus gave less importance to Indradev in Puranic period

    Most historians say that Lord Indra is praised more than Lord Vishnu or Lord Shiva (Rudra) in Vedas and Indra is the real God of Sanathana Dharma (Pre-vedic time when Yagna is only way of worship of God and not idol worship) and not Vishnu or Shiva. In fact Indra ruler over other devas in […]

    Dwaita, Adwaita and Visishtadvaita talk about the relationship between 3 main realities of this universe or very basic fundamental aspects of this universe. They are God, the souls (jivas or consciousness), and insentient matter (jada or moola prakriti or the material energy which science discusses).

  • why Hindus worship tree, snake,cow as God. Isn’t it funny?

    Vibhuti yoga of Bhagavad Gita answers this. By declaring that His glory present in some of the selected things, beings and living beings, God is declaring His ubiquity in this chapter. It explains where exactly the God’s glory is found in this material world. Even the angels (devathas) use the same energy or power of […]

    Do you know that even the scientists have the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information that confirms or supports their prior beliefs? It is called as knowledge filtering (suppression of some of the evidences that opposes the convention discoveries that was made). Cremo and Richard Thompson published a booked called Forbidden Archaeology […]
