HappyMakar Sankranthi and Pongal Greetings to all!!
It is an onset of Spring season from today , and, according to hindu belief uttarayan starts from today.It is amazing that the hindu religion has a lot of festivities throughout the year,and , remember not one out of the forty festivities is related to sadness and grief. All the forty fesitivities in this religion speak about happiness, calmness , reaching the utilmate goal , sharing etc etc; unlike other religions where there are some events of festivities related to grief.
The hindu religion believes on the principles of advaita vedanta. It is a deep rooted and scientific based philosphy which states that neither u or me or anyone dies. That is why when great hindu gods such as lord Krishna , lord Rama , etc shed their mortal body , it was not considered as grief to an learned and intellectual men.
The essence of all the festivals is to drive u r mind to realise the omnipresent one.Finally , would like to end with a Kabir doha
Jaise Til Mein Tel Hai, Jyon Chakmak Mein Aag
Tera Sayeen Tujh Mein Hai, Tu Jaag Sake To Jaag
Like seed contains the oil, fire in flint stone
Your temple seats the Divine, realize if you can
OM.
