Akshaya Tritiya 7th May 2019 (Tuesday)





The Most Important Mantra of Akshaya Tritiya: “Remember the Kind act of Giving is Thousand Times More Powerful than that of Receiving”.

Akshaya means ‘ETERLAL’  - never diminishing and Tritiya  means  3rd Lunar Day  as per the Hindu Calendar.  Hence, Akshaya Tritiya is considered as the most golden day of the year.  Celebrating that day means that one will be blessed with ‘Eternal Wealth throughout the year.’

Akshaya Tritiya (Akha Teej) is a very popular festival that the Hindus and Jains celebrate every year.  Akshaya Tritiya is the day when the great God of Wisdom, God Ganesha, started writing the epic work called Mahabharata. It is also believed that when the Pandavas were in exile the Lord presented them a bowl which was named Akshaya Tritiya. That bowl was never empty and produces an unlimited amount of food on demand.

The most popular story regarding the celebration of Akshaya Tritiya is that Lord Krishna had blessed his school mate Sudama with wealth without Sudama himself praying to help him by just tasting Poha which the poor Brahmin Sudama had brought with him to offer to Krishna. When Krishna had tasted Poha, Sudama’s poverty had vanished. 

 The day on which Sudama had become rich due to Krishna’s  blessings is also called Akshaya Triya.  The Hindu community considers this day as a lucky day and believes that any venture such as a business or the construction of a building started on that day will  be prosperous.

We pray for the prosperity and plenty of all our friends and their family members.

Gandhi Recited Quran Verses in the Temple of Valmiki Basti near Delhi

Image
  Once Mohandas. K. Gandhi was reciting Quran in the temple of Valmiki Basti near Delhi.   Then a woman from the crowd got up and asked Gandhi not to do so. Gandhi asked: Why?   Then that woman said that it is against our religion.    Gandhi said. I don't believe so. ..The woman replied that we do not consider you worthy to give order in religion..   Gandhi said that the vote of the people present here should be taken. The woman replied whether religion could be decided by votes?.   Gandhi said that you are obstructing my religious freedom. The woman replied that you are interfering illegally in the religion of crores of Hindus.   Gandhi said: I wish to listen to the Quran, now.  The woman said: And I will oppose it inside our temple.   And then hundreds of Valmiki youths stood by the side of the woman and started saying that before getting the Quran recited in the temple, show us by reciting Gita or Ramayana in a mosque and then we will...

Carnatic Musicians Aiding for Christian Conversion Efforts – Courtesy: Naithrupan

Image
Nithyashree Mahadevan , Aruna Sairam , OS Arun , Unnikrishnan , Anuradha Shriram , Tippu & Saindhavi – names that you’re most familiar with Carnatic music who are supposed to be a role model for younger generatons .  The above mentioned singers  stooped down to the lowest level possible. They all signed up to sell their music, Thyagaraja Kirthanas to christian mission by simply changing few words and singing in praise of Jesus. It is highly condemnable that they chose to replace the word Rama with Yesu and sang all the kirthanas . It is that same Rama and Krishna who showered their blessings and made them popular and these scumbags have decided to sell our kirthanas to churches who will use them ONLY to do more conversion. What a shame! On the contrary, Isaignani Ilayaraja that he will not score for the movie “ Periyar ” even if he is offered any number of crores – that is conviction! I see some people asking some stupid question...

Image
(Editorial published by E-Touch Digital Magazine – Written  by S. Sankaran, Editor.) Modi Sarkar is ruling at the Centre for the last 10 years – two continuous consecutive terms from 2014 to 2024. Bharat Voters had voted Modi in 2014 with 283 MP seats and in 2019 with 303 MP seats and the BJP had now set a target of 370 + MP seats in the current Lok Sabha Election which will be over by June 1 and the results will be out on June 4. To decide ‘To Whom to Vote and Why’, we have two different yardsticks for the ruling party – here it is BJP and for the opposition parties – here it is INDI-Alliances headed by Congress.   For Ruling Party – viz BJP under the leadership of Modi: Voter can judge the track records of the ruling party for the last 10 years and their programmes for the next 5 years. Unbiased assessments of various welfare schemes implemented by the ruling party from various reports – both government and media/print and various articles thereon – apart from the manifesto ...
