Mahakaal Jyotirlinga - mystery of time



It was our second day at Ujjain after Mahakaal darshan. We could get chance to visit a few important spots in Ujjain like Kaal Bhairav, Sandeepani Ashram and others.

Shri Krishna after conquering Kansa was sent to Guru Sandeepan for his education. He came to Ujjain and stayed with his Guru for some time to start divine plans as Avtar.

Kaal Bhairav is also a living spot, where Bhairav accepts wine and consumes any amount of it. This is surprising yet could be seen here.

Ujjain is has many such miraculous places that hardly fits into our logic but obviously raises many questions. A curious mind will search for answers and will settles with a faith in GOD on not being able to get one. He agrees to a fact that there exist something that is behind these unexplainable natural miracles and the world names it GOD.

Ujjain has Kaal Bhairav, Mahakaal. Why so many God of Kaal at Ujjain?

Why did Shri Krishna visited Ujjain, when he had experienced ultimate at Vrindavan itself?

What is this concept of Kaal and how does Ujjain helps in understanding it?



Time or Kaal is an unresolved mystery ever since human civilisation. There has been no direct answer yet its experienced. Time is another aspect of life like mind, which is experienced but not found in our body or this physical world.

It was evening time and as we were staying opposite to Mahakaal temple. We relaxed for some time and then assembled near Mahakaal temple to spend few minutes in the positive energy of Ujjain, especially around Mahakaal temple.

We started reflecting on how rejuvenating was the day at these different vibrant lively spots of Ujjain and as was expected there were lots of queries as brain was not able to give any logical explanation for these.

Rashmi, my better half shared her happiness on our kids being given new names at Sandeepani Ashram. She too was surprised that why did Krishna had to come to Ujjain as he was already accomplished at Vrindavan?

I could see expression on her face. She was inquisitive…

It was purpose of his Avtar to demonstrate that ‘Gururbina gatirnasti’…Guru is a must for education. He proved it by his act of bowing into Guru’s feet and learning from him.

Hummm…
I agree to some extent but I know there is something more to it that you should share with us, she said.

Mahakaal : Secerts of Panchakshri sadhana - Part I

Social unrest is growing day by day with stress levels going up. Humans are tending away from humane. Crime, terrorism is uprooting the value system. The stress levels are so high that we have started losing sight of health, family and our value systems. In such a dark age, this world could be a better place only if each one of us recovers from such mental state. So, the questions that comes in mind is that what could we do to remain free from stress? Or what could be done that it doesn’t eat us up? Its stress only that causes lot of health problems like B.P., diabetes, psycho issues, etc. So, the question that we need to answer to our self is:- Do we wish to be free from stress? Do we need to enhance health and manage our B.P.? Do we wish to be finding solutions to our problems of day to day life? Is there any simple way we could improve our relationship? What could be done to get health, wealth and a quality life? The answer to all these questions lies i...

Mysteries of Shri Krishna's flute

Image
Recently few friends called up and discussed on few aspects of Krishna's flute. I was glad that at least these articles were able to raise inquisitiveness in few minds. These questions are very pertinent and are opportunity for me to explore more, share more…. I have experienced that there is no replacement of Guru but such articles or thoughts could create a desire to know and learn these hidden treasures of our life. Few of such minds are so determined that they are able to surrender in the holy feet of Guru and experience these levels, these dimensions of life. let me share the questions that were posed:- What does a flute signify to an ordinary human? Could Krishna's flute be compared with an ordinary flute? What is in the flute for me? How could I use this science to benefit myself and others? If flute is so important why did Krishna left it in Vrindavan and moved on in life? Why did Krishna never played music on any other flute after leaving ...

Shri Ganapati - Secrets of inner celebrations on the path of spirituality Part-4

Image
A story goes for Siddharth leaving every worldly item one after the other as a penance. It was an attempt to tap into the true self. It was an attempt to uncover the true immortal self. In this path of leaving all worldly possessions, he reaches a state when he had left everything and nothing was left with him for leaving.  In those moments of realization, he leaves that ‘leaver’ inside him, the leaver which was leaving all worldly possessions. The moment he leaves the leaver, he becomes one with the self.  This was a play of ‘ego’ and he continued leaving all its holdings till the time ego only remained. This entire path or this arduous penance was nothing but a play of ego.  It was that false self or ego of Siddharth that was keeping him busy in a play of knowing the possessions and then leaving it. The actual transformation occurred the day he left his ego and he realized that Budh. Now, check this story again and you will find that it...

Rudraksh – mystical seed holding secrets of Shiv upasana. Part 3

Image
The Shiva Mahapurana, Vidyesvara-samhita, chapter 25 shlokas 89 and 90 highlights that Shiv himself explains the greatness of the Bhasma and Rudraksha to Devi Parvati. Shivasyatipriyau gyeyau bhasmaRudrakshaadharinau | Taddhamaprabhavaddhi bhuktirmuktirna samshaya || 89 || The person who wears bhasma and Rudraksha are very dear to Lord Shiv, they get all their desires fulfilled and gets liberated. BhasmaRudrakshaadhari yah shivabhaktah sa uchyate | Panchaksharam japasaktah paripurnashcha sanmukhe || 90 || There is no doubt that wearing bhasma (sacred ash), Rudraksha and Panchakshri delivers liberation! My friends you would have noticed with keen observation - Panchakshri identifies with the creation process and is then followed with Bhasma. Bhasma is the residue and it is remains after the merging or burning of all the elements back into their source. This way Panchakshri and Bhasma completes the creation and destruction process and hence the cycle complet...

Secret Of Nine forms of Durga

Image
My father was a highly learned person with Master degree in four streams. He was very soft at heart but had keen eye for small-small things in our life. I never saw him giving up in his life. He was always ready to go out of the way to help others. He never had accepted any negativity though had faced challenging situations which were difficult and were life threatening. I was with my father those days at my grand pa’s place in Meerut. It was month of april and temperatures were high.  Navratri celebrations were going on. During one of those days, in the evening we had a guest, he was my father’s friend and he knew that I have interest in spirituality. He also knew that I practice yog, mantra and other divine sciences. We all were sitting together and during lighter discussions on tea, he was arguing that there is no significance of these nine days. He expressed his surprise that how come this type of nine day celebration came into existence? He wa...
