Posted by A.c.babu on November 21, 2016

Swamiji:

Ideally it is advisable to start around age 5 when they can follow instructions. Start by practicing short periods of silence, and breathing techniques. Nadishodhana with alternate nostril breathing is a simple and fun technique. Chant Gayathri Mantra in the mornings and at night before sleep teach them visualization using

Swamiji:

We all seem to be seeking a technique to realization, not knowing that it is a process. The first thing to do is to bring a discipline in your life involving yoga, Namajapam etc. The next step, is to live in awareness and not do anything as routine or in

Swamiji:

Mind games are promoted to help the learning and cognitive abilities of the mind. But I can tell you a better cognitive development tool. Chant Vishnu Sahasranamam daily. It was in fact studied by Harvard University and proven to improve memory and stop cognitive decline. It will also provide a

Swamiji:

Traditionally we knew “twilight” is the time when some inauspicious environmental changes happen. Modern medicine calls this emotional turmoil in our mind as “sun downing”. That is why we were advised to light the lamp and do Namajapam at that time. The way to overcome this difficulty is to consciously

Posted by Jithin on November 16, 2016

Swamiji:

Though Brahmacharya is commonly understood as celibacy(for the unmarried) or fidelity (for the married) it indicates a lifestyle conducive to the pursuit of jnanam and moksham. The word itself implies “bhramathil charikkuka” or exist in the Divine. It involves ahimsa (not hurting others in words or actions), simple living, studies, meditation,

Respected Swamiji There is no doubt about the fact that the present generation is growing up away from their roots and that we need to instill our values in them. Our epics and Puranas play an important part but sometimes it can be difficult to explain our epics to them. For instance I have four-year old twin grandchildren growing up in USA. How can I explain Seeta’s agnipariksha to them. How can I tell them that a woman would have to jump into the fire to prove her innocence and purity? Swamiji, your guidance in this matter would be deeply appreciated.I remain respectfully yours Mrs. Padma Mohan Kumar

Swamiji:

It is important to understand these stories allowing space for its narrative exaggeration. That is why Ramayana and Mahabharata are called Ithihahas. Though it is primarily the story of Rama or Krishna said to convey the evolution of the human consciousness, all stories in there cannot be taken in a

Swamiji:

Santhanadharma shows you the highest possibility of elevating yourself to the ultimate divinity. But for this to happen a disciplined and structured life is inevitable. You have to wake up before sunrise in order to stimulate your brain centers that provide intelligence and emotional balance. Practice yoga, pranayama and meditation

Namasthe Swamiji, I am a regular viewer of your talks in bhagawatham in TV. We are very worried about my elder son who is 12th standard, he has totally changed in his behaviour, not listening to anyone, he is not at all studying, not even taking his book, not praying, always sleeps or in phone. Hes having lot of divertions. Took him to counsellor too, but he has gone more worse. We saw many astrologers, and they have told that his behaviour now is due to the previous birth’s sins and that some pariharas has to be done to recover. We are really worried swamiji, hes just having 3 months to write the board exam. It looks like he has given up his studies. Kindly advise us swamiji.

Children at this age have more problems than the adult world realizes. They feel they have to compete and perform in a world that is not sympathetic or understanding of them. Have you had an open discussion with him or one of his close friends to find out what his view of

Pranamam Swami, Twice daily i do nama japam for my mental satisifaction. I recite each mantra 108 times like Mahamrityunjay mantra, Gayatri mantra, Santana Gopala mantra(since I am childless) and other mantras like Om Nama Shivaya, Hare Rama…., Om Vakratunda Maha…. etc. Each mantra I recite 108 times. 4 Mantras in morning and 6 in evening. Doing nama japam has become my daily ritual. Is reciting mantras 108 times each result in any changes in hormones based on the type of mantra we chant. My experience has always been good when i sit for nama japam. Though my question may seem silly, I request your guidance if I am not over doing anything without having the absolute knowledge with regard to the same. Kindly request your advice.

Swamiji:

Chanting should not be one other ritual you do. When you repeatedly chant a mantra, that vibration has to resonate so much in your being that you become the mantra itself. In other words, it is your involvement and shraddha that matters. The number of mantras or the number of times

Posted by Geetha on November 15, 2016

Swamiji:

What you eat is not a matter of religion, but what is good for the body. Science has proven that man by the nature of his body constitution and digestive abilities should be fruitarians (Primarily living on fruits, nuts, legumes etc.) When you eat non-vegetarian diet it creates an acidic
