Stree and life..Life and stress

In this modern world stress has become a part of our lives. People don’t know how to overcome it or deal with it. STRESS can be subdivided into 4 categories

1. SURVIVAL STRESS: This kind of stress arises when you are in danger. This type of stress is highly beneficial to an individual .It creates a big boost in power to be able to handle the situation
Can you imagine a human having more power than a lion or tiger???YES one can..
2. INTERNAL STRESS: This type of stress is most common. It arises as a result of worry and life’s difficulties. This type of stress leads to many diseases.
3. ENVIRONMENTAL STRESS: This kind of stress arises from excessive noises, crowds as well as pressure from work and family.
4. Fatigue & over work
We strive to earn a great deal of money at the expense of our mental well being. All beings desire more money to enjoy life. This deep desire creates stress.
Mental and physical changes during stress:
*Heart beat and breathing get faster
*a lot of sweatings
*cold hand, feet or skin
*stomach uncomfortable
*Muscles get tense or tight
*mouth dry
*Nature call all the time
*head pain, fatigue

Physical and mental changes of long stress
* CHANGES in eating habits
*CHANGES in sleeping pattern
*colds, asthma & heart problem
*problem in sex life
*always tired

Remember we have to balance our life; Stress causes disease in the body. The greater the internal stress, the greater the chances of high blood pressure. As a result of an increased level of blood pressure, the sugar level in the body drops. Diabetes can result and this may also lead to heart attacks. Nervous tensions impact on outward appearance as well. A person may get age faster. So beware don’t fill your mind with unnecessary negative thoughts which increases the stress levels. You need to be equipped with special tools too deal with this stress. Off course in life we all have to face stress but don’t take the stress as life or life as stress. Do every day simple pranyama(breathing exercise),Asana(yoga postures) & meditation. According to a Japanese doctor food is not the only necessity for a long & youth full life. The mind is the main thing we have to keep it happy and balanced that is the secret of long life. Dwelling on problems will only increase or create your problems or depths of sadness. Try to look at the brighter side of things it help you to overcome your problem. Be positive

Simple things to relax from stress

*see the sun setting over the water
*Hear the birds sign

*Feel the cool water on the feet

What is the form of death?

Namaste...Some peoples may think that why have to discuss about death? It have to be happen in our all human life is it?...ok let me have little positive way to approach the meaning of death.

A great yogi had explained very effectively on this. Death means new formation. The changes take place when the word death appears. When a tree die, it changes to chair or paper, when a chair dies it changes to ashes & it’s also get in the form of vapour. Science says everything in this world is living even an atom.

Our human body is made up of many chemical substances and we take this body from this earth. the all chemical substances’ is together when we live when our breath stop it all get separated but they still alive in different form .when a human die time appears he did not disappear just his form changes to another form.

Let we all enjoy the presents god's grace with you all...SIVA

About god shiva


Hariom Nama shivaya....I would like to share about the god shiva most of the peoples would ask me about him..Because he used to have snakes,moon,ganga and some other things in his body.Let me explain it
Jata (Matted Hair): The flows of his tangled hair represent Shiva as the noble of storm or Vayu, who is the slight form of breathing current in all existing beings. Therefore it is Shiva which is the support for all breathing creature. He is Pashupatinath.

Sacred Ganga:
The holiest of the holy rivers, Ganga flows starting on the tangled Hair of Shiva. According to a myth, Shiva acceptable an hole to the huge canal to cross the world and carry purify stream to person which being Ganga also denote fertility - single of the original feature of the Rudra

The Cobra Necklace:

The fatal cobra represent that “death” feature that Shiva has carefully occupied. The cobras just about his neckline too symbolize the sleeping energy, called Kundalini, the serpent control. The snake warped three times around the neckline of Lord Shiva depict the precedent, here and potential time. The snake look in the right way of Lord Shiva signify that the Lord’s perpetual laws of reason and honesty protect accepted arrange in the creation.

The Vibhuti:
Vibhuti is a three stripe of remains tired on the forehead that signify the Immortality of the spirit and evident of the beauty and manifest beauty of the Hindu Lord.
Let me say littile about it...acctualy you may see a white color stuff on the shiva head just like lined.vibhuti ash is generally the residue of cow dung that is burned in a sacred fire.

All the hindu peoples will use this for several reasons some of the reason let me give .

1.Placed on the forehead of devotees, it serves as a sectarian mark (tilaka). The practice of smearing holy ash on the forehead also exists in Zoroastrianism and Catholicism.

2.In worship connected with Lord Shiva it is a symbol of purity and is one of the main sacraments given at pūjā in all Śaivite temples and shrines.

3.The ash thus serves as a reminder to the believer to cast away selfish and worldly desires that wrap the self in maya, and calls to mind the story of how Shiva burned Kama (the god of desire) to ashes when Kama attempted to break Shiva's focus on the Divine Truth.

Tiger Skin:
Lord Shiva is exposed session on or trying a tiger crust. The tiger is the transportation of Shakti, the divinity of control and strength. Shiva is away from and higher than any variety of strength. He is the master of Shakti. The tiger skin that he wear the symbolize of conquest over each and every strength. Tiger also symbolize the desire. Thus meeting on tiger skin, Shiva indicate that he has occupied the desire.

Damaru (Drum):
A little beat through two sides divided from every extra by a slim neck-like formation which is represent the two entirely diverse state of being, uncertain and clear. Once a damaru which is Shaken, the sound created denote Nada, the space noise of AUM, which preserve be the heard through bottomless reflection.

Trishul (Trident):
A three-branched trident exposed adjacent to Lord Shiva symbolize His three basic power resolve, stroke and facts. Since a stick the trident represent the device of sentence to the evil doer resting on every one of the three plane – religious, slight and material.

Nandi, the Bull:
Nandi which is said to be the vehicle of Lord Shiva. The bull represent both power and unawareness. Lord Shiva’s. The bull symbolize together control and influence. Lord Shiva’s use of the bull as his vehicle express the proposal that He remove the lack of knowledge and bequeath control the suggestion that He remove unawareness and bequeaths control of knowledge on His group.
