so proud to be hindu .. this is whatw e learn .. sometime when i bump into any other religious site .. oh god .. its soo poisinous .. so much of hate they spread among followers for hinduism .. i must have done some good deeds .. thank you god ..
It's because of ignorance and insecurity some religious fanatics spread hatred. Such poor souls have either not understood or wrongly interpreted the holy scriptures.
Yheaa iam really feeling today when I was watching these videos that my life is blessed that I know these answers and things , today where people don't have time to come out of there subconsciousness and know the reality of the life ,I feel "mera jeevan aj dhanya ho gaya" ,when I am only 20 yrs old
I am not Hindu, but in my heart I believe in Hindu religion, actually I am planning to have a Pooja room in my house, but I don't know how to pray according to Hindu traditions, Not only Hindu religion I want to embrace but also your custom and traditions in India , I was so fascinated about Indian culture since I was 6yrs old and now my heart longing your religion ( Hinduism) , is there any English version of prayer book ? where I can buy? Thank you so much for your wonderful video. blessings upon you.
Shine De leon You don't need to know the tradition or rules to arrange puja in your house. Just do what your mind wishes, keep concious that your motto is to welcome the supreme power who is behind the all of this universe. love all living beings and all the elements that we use in our daily life. He/she prayss the best who loves the best. in this state what you are doing is called puja/pooja.
Chanting the divine name of the God /Goddesses is easier and holier than the holiest. Some mantras need initiation from a Guru. However the following mantra anyone chant anywhere anytime without any restrictions. Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare. Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare. May the Almighty God bless you with true unconditional faith and devotion 🙏 😊 😇 🙌
Dear Shine De leon ,In addition if possible be in contact with some enlightened soul / ISKCON member. They will guide, help & initiate BhagavataGeetha Learning to start with. When your mind is set towards Bhagwan, doors will be opened., be sure Good Luck.
Dear brother, in Bhagavad Gita Lord says that I am love. Love is devotion. Love is true worship. If you love God with sincere heart you are worshipping him the best way. All other rituals are only to help you to love God. Don't get mislead by Hippocratic worshipers. Ask God he will guide you.
Thank you for making this in-sight-full video! I loved it. Please make more with CC! I'm deaf and it's hard for me to find spiritual Hindu videos on YT with CC. Namaste.
Dear Bhavya, Thanks for letting me know that you found the captions helpful. I will certainly include them in all future videos as well. More videos are in the pipeline, so do subscribe if you have not already done so, Pulkit
These explanations of your's are very joyful to watch. Like you, i also wish to integrate my soul with this omnipotence of divinity. Please keep up the good work.
@@Aeman_. your right . Lemme tell you a story so that you are able to get it better There is a father . He has a wife and a son . One day while coming from home he brings his son a packet of chips. Son was extremely elated to receive that . He took that packet and run away. After some time he came and offered his father some chips. Though the father had no craving for that but he got emotional and happy because child offered it to him. It happens mostly in each and every family right ? So god don't need food as he/ she owns the entire world. But god is convinced by our affection towards god
Adorable knowledge u have gathered in this video. It makes me grateful to ure true monks and guru who gives fairly chance to us , how to make our life holy by knowing our grate , incredible saints and gurus maked ones. Thanks alot for beautiful and v.imp information which I always wants. 😊
Its based on aura/pranamaya kosha/subtle body. The deity's prana absorbs part of the food's prana. When you eat, your prana absorbs the food prana. Now both diety and your prana have a bit of common prana (ie) from food. This makes a connection with the deity. As you progress, the deity will appear in your dreams and protect and nurture you in various ways. In advanced level of progress, the deity will physically manifest and eat the food as is mentioned in the life stories of many saints. You can eat any food, but before eating, with intense concentration offer it mentally to your deity. This would deepen the connection. In fact, make it a sadhana to always pray to your deity and offer it mentally. You can be anywhere in the world, physical proximity doesnt matter.
Thanks a ton for sharing your knowledge with us !!! I really LOVE this video ! DO WHAT YOUR HEART SAYS CUZ THAT ONE GOD TALKS WITH US VIA OUR HEART :) Parent which is GOD only want the happiness of her/his children !
Excellent explanation!!! I would like to present my observation as follows: Concept of Hinduism is monotheist not polytheist. Its often misinterpreted as monotheist religion because Hinduism is such an old religion a way of life, it has witnessed lot of teachers which we call God, gurus, etc. God is one and we as human being see him in different form. The GOD or any guru which we relates to or the one which answers our query about spiritual presence becomes our guru and later worshiped as GOD. Its very true that in Hinduism, followers do idol worship, however the concept is well explained in this video regarding the philosophy behind it.
huge fan of your videos logical n spiritual at same time...and it is magic of hinduism which believe in one god despite having so many gods whereas other religions like islam tries to demean other religions...likes of zakir hussain are perfect example
Prabhupada In Bhagawad Gita “ As It Is “ says we can go beyond the act of offering our food to Krshna. We can picturise the actual act of the lord partaking our offering in our minds. So depending on how one has developed their relationship with the lord, the act of offering and the actual act of the lord eating can be visualised. One can be cooking the lord’s food, one can be serving, one can be seated and eating with the lord or one can be feeding the lord. I am in absolute bliss when I offer my food to the lord and then dream of the act of feeding the food on my plate to Infant Krshna. I used to do it with my daughter and now feeding the lord sitting on my lap is one my daily joys. Thank you Prabhupada Guruji and Lord Krshna …….🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Nice explanation but I was wondering if a person who is devoted to God but on the other side ignorant towards the poor and needy people will God still bless him?
Deep Biswas we don't develop evenly. Sometimes we may see a person is very good in one aspect but quite bad in another and that is because this person is still evolving. His or her development is still incomplete.
+Deep Biswas God is 'Love', attainment of God is in the unification of oneself with the Universe(humans,animals and objects)through 'Love'. Hence a person can't be devoted to God and still look down upon poor people. A person chanting mantras may not be a devotee but may only be another human being looking for material gains.
the one who realizes aham brahmasi will see everything as extension of himself . how can he be ignorant towards the needy . but this is true that most schools of Indian philosophy appear to be focusing on personal salvation rather than cosmic salvation .
Deep Biswas Answer according to our Puranas is NO.. offer a portion to god and give away the rest to the needy. You may not visit a temple if you help anyone in need. Needy need not be a poor begger, it can be an old uncle who you help with lifting a heavy bag in the market or standing by a lonely woman and making her feel secure (without asking for any return)
Very beautiful belief you have. This video makes me curious. I have one question, please: If God is one, do we need all the other gods and goddesses? I mean if they never existed; would God not be enough to worship?
I think God would be so much happier if we shared the food with the poor and needy instead of placing it in front of the temple... The former would be a much more beautiful method to invoke his grace. Isnt it so?
a nice work done by you. in think slightly diffrently. as you know a devoti prays god just not for god. but for his own development.and the whole thing happens in the devoties mind as said by swami sivanand.this the case of thourougly faith.the lord or the god touches the food or not i dont know but i know one thing it is my mind, my BHAV which toches the food and god.which change the belief of my mind.because every offering food to god are not getting the change in the test in prasd. only few are there getting that. and they are pure hearted,devotional persons who are blessed by god.
I have seen different methods of meditation to attain Supreme being n know oneself as soul. Mainly it is either by visualization or concentrating on breath and getting thoughtless. Can this practice help us to understand spiritual world of almighty
Hello I have a different way of understanding the significance of a "Prasad" in our traditions,I thought I might share it with you. I'll begin by saying in India temples are not only places of worship but play a very important role in people's daily lives and the prasad which is offered to God is later on distributed to the masses, which is a way of social service by the temples, therefore any offering made by the devotees in the name of the God will reach the people and also once the offering is made the devotee has disowned the food, therefore it also removes the factor of a person as an individual offering the food as it eventually reaches the people as the food consumed by the God. Pls. feel free to comment. Dhanyavaad .
nice video didi :) . Regarding God appearing in physical form, I feel it would also comprise ants,insects and other beings that eat them as all their form is that of the manifestation of God. ?.and about interesting and common scenes where snakes and other animals seem to intentionally drink milk or food offered to a deity, or worship a deity.This supposedly happens as divine beings at times take form or 'possess' these beings to perform some act as stated :).
Hello Vinnith bhai! sorry for the late reply, i got a bit tied up. Sri Ramakrishna did give prasad to a cat because he saw the divine mother in its soul as well. So yes God exists in all creatures. One just needs an evolved consciousness to actually see and realize this fact.
Thanks didi :) . It reminds me of Shirdi Sai story as well..when a lady feeds a dog ,and then when she visits sai,sai tells her he is contended with her food,that he is still belching.. she was confused and then sai explains that he is one with all creatures.One who see's divinity or God in all creatures is his beloved.
@@thephenomenalone8638 nowadays mosques and churches are also blessing food and distrbuting ti those who go for prayers. Copying hindus too in their version but call distributing food after prayers
Can you please do a video on this topic: God is one infinite ocean of consciousness.. I see God as Shri Ram though.. Some one else might see God as Shiva.. This wave of consciousness can manifest in different forms, I understand. So the form it manifests itself in, is it based on the faith of the person involved? If I visualize God as Shri Ram, will the infinite ocean of consciousness reveal to me as Shri Ram or Ganesha? We also see Vishnu sitting on a snake, Where is He? Is He in that form right now? Sorry, confused myself in the end, but I think you get the idea..
Hi Mukut, Sorry for the delay in replying. My first gurudev is Pandit Shriram Sharma. His website is www.awgp.org. Besides him I also consider Swami Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindo and Rabindranath Tagore as my gurus. I will keep your suggestion in mind for putting together something on Shriram Sharma, though I am afraid it won't be any time in the immediate future. I am focusing right now on some new videos on Samadhi which are taking up considerable time. But yes I will eventually introduce more material from him - as he was a HUGE powerhouse. Take care pulkit
You post some really amazing videos and your ability to explain is awesome :) Anyways I have a question? Is this tradition of "offering" a part of "Bhakti Yoga"? And if so what i dont get is if god is infinite consciousness and is beyond polar opposites of good and evil,pleasure and pain etc then why does he care if we "love" him or not? I mean isn't consciousness by its very nature supposed to be devoid of anything? Also cwhen lord krishna tells arjuna to do karma yoga by offering all actions unto him is it the same as offerings that we give to the temple? Thanks in advance for your reply,keep up the good work :)
The tradition of offering creates a sense of divine love in your heart.Sharing the offering with others creates a sense of fulfillment without your knowledge and induce to repeat this divine act for the benefit of all.
Nice work, I would love to write about my view related to this video---- Even to understand and realize this concept of omnipresent infinite consciousness, it needs very high degree of devotion. It don't come from an ordinary logic, its far beyond the boundary of logic and intellect. Infinite ocean of divine consciousness is existing throughout the universe, in its omnipresent nature. We are not separated beings from this infinite consciousness from the point of spirit, rather we are in it, we are part of it and we are it itself, like the different waves in the same ocean, though appear separated but they are the same ocean. Similarly, we look separated from the infinite consciousness by this body and mind structure. By crossing the boundary of body and mind, if we can land and live in the field of spirit which is our true nature, then we can really feel this oneness with the universal consciousness. Now this omnipresent consciousness can interact with the sincere devotees coz he is existing in the field of oneness for the time being. When one will be able to hold a clean and sincere heart, with continuous and patient effort, then actually he will be able to feel the oneness with the Infinite consciousness and he can feel its presence coz he himself will be in that state for the moment. So Its all about being and becoming one with the Infinite consciousness in order to realize it. Otherwise we cannot understand it just by the Panchendriya reasoning, it can lead upto few steps only. One has to know about the nature of the spirit or consciousness both personal and universal, u have to learn to discriminate about the eternal and temporary truths about life. Dont expect u will see this kind of things with ur eyes and play with ur hands, rather, u will develop a superfine perception with time about the higher truths in this field. But as mentioned in this video, the customs, rituals always help for the beginners, worldly minded people to develop the attitude of gratefulness, sharing, compassion etc. which in turn will lead one to the level of feeling oneness with the universal consciousness or being and becoming a God Man.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful thoughts Bappaditya. They are so so TRUE! You have stated the reality beautifully! Do forgive my delay in replying, I got a bit caught up, Pulkit
Adolfo Cortez no dear, whatever language you pray in, God will understand as he can read your thoughts. Languages merely express thoughts in words. For example when one feels very angry one can't even find the words sometimes to express this feeling. So words and language are immaterial. Thoughts and emotions are what matter. And more than anything God is within each of us as the Soul of our soul. So feel free to converse with him in any language you feel comfortable.
A story related to the above topic which is helpful for better understanding ನೈವೇದ್ಯ: ಆ ದೇವರು ನಾವಿಟ್ಟ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ತಿನ್ನುವನೇನು? ಒಬ್ಬ ಗುರು ಮತ್ತು ಶಿಷ್ಯರ ಸಂವಾದ ಹೀಗೆ ನಡೆದಿತ್ತು. ದೇವರನ್ನು ನಂಬದ ಶಿಷ್ಯನೊಬ್ಬ ತನ್ನ ಗುರುವನ್ನು " ದೇವರು ನಾವು ಮಾಡುವ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸುವನೇ? ಹಾಗೆ ನಾವು ನೀಡುವ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸಿದರೆ ನಾವು 'ಪ್ರಸಾದ' ವಿನಿಯೋಗ ಮಾಡುವುದು ಹೇಗೆ? ಆ ದೇವರು ನಾವು ನೀಡುವ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ನಿಜವಾಗಿಯೂ ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸುವನೇ ಗುರುಗಳೇ?" ಎಂದು ಪ್ರಶ್ನಿಸಿದ. ಗುರುಗಳು ಯಾವ ಉತ್ತರವನ್ನೂ ನೀಡದೆ ಆ ಶಿಷ್ಯನಿಗೆ ತರಗತಿಗೆ ತಯಾರಾಗಲು ಆದೇಶಿಸಿದರು. ಆ ದಿನ ಗುರುಗಳು 'ಉಪನಿಷತ್ತು' ಗಳ ಪಾಠವನ್ನು ಆರಂಭಿಸಿದರು. ಶಿಷ್ಯರಿಗೆ ' ಪೂರ್ಣಮದಃ ಪೂರ್ಣಮಿದಂ ಪೂರ್ಣಾತ್ ಪೂರ್ಣಮುದಚ್ಯತೇ ...... ಎಂಬ ಮಂತ್ರದ ಬೋಧನೆಯನ್ನು ಮಾಡಿ, ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಯ ಎಲ್ಲವೂ ಪೂರ್ಣದಿಂದಲೇ ಆಗಿರುತ್ತದೆ, ಪೂರ್ಣಕ್ಕೆ ಪೂರ್ಣವನ್ನು ಸೇರಿಸಿದರೆ ಅಥವಾ ಪೂರ್ಣದಿಂದ ಪೂರ್ಣವನ್ನು ಕಳೆದರೆ ಪೂರ್ಣವೇ ಉಳಿಯುತ್ತದೆ, ಎಂದು ವಿವರಿಸಿದರು. ನಂತರ ಎಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ಈಶಾವಾಸ್ಯೋಪನಿಷತ್ತಿನ ಮಂತ್ರಗಳನ್ನು ಕಂಠಸ್ಥ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಆದೇಶಿಸಿದರು. ಎಲ್ಲಾ ವಿದ್ಯಾರ್ಥಿಗಳೂ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ ತೊಡಗಿದರು. ಹೀಗೆ ಎರಡು ಮೂರುದಿನಗಳ ಸತತ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸದ ನಂತರ, ಗುರುಗಳು, ಆ ನೈವೇದ್ಯದ ವಿಚಾರವಾಗಿ ತನ್ನ ಸಂದೇಹವನ್ನು ವ್ಯಕ್ತಪಡಿಸಿದ ಶಿಷ್ಯನನ್ನು ಕರೆದು, ಅಭ್ಯಾಸಮಾಡಿದ ಮಂತ್ರಗಳನ್ನು ಪುಸ್ತಕವನ್ನು ನೋಡದೆ ಹೇಳಲು, ಹೇಳಿದರು. ಆ ಶಿಷ್ಯ ಕಂಠಸ್ಥ ಹೇಳಿ, ಒಪ್ಪಿಸಿದ. ಆಗ, ಗುರುಗಳು ಮುಗುಳುನಗುತ್ತಾ ' ಪುಸ್ತಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಗಿದೆಯೋ ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಬಾಯಿಪಾಠ ಮಾಡಿದೆಯಾ?" ಎಂದು ಪ್ರಶ್ನಿಸಿದರು. ' ಹೌದು ಗುರುಗಳೇ ನಾನು ಆ ಪುಸ್ತಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಗಿದೆಯೋ ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಆ ಮಂತ್ರಗಳ ಉಚ್ಛಾರಣೆ ಮಾಡಿದೆ, ಗುರುಗಳೇ' ಎಂದು ಉತ್ತರಿಸಿದ.

suppose a mother has 3 children .. in order to make mother happy a more powerful child goes and kills the less fortunate child who cant talk .. packs it in precious gift paper and puts some designs on the gift .. goes to mother and offers the gift to mother ... mother opens it .. now you answer what will be reaction of mother will she accept it just because u have added ur so called love or will she be angry that you cuased a grt deal of pain to what she created now you will ask what vegetariansims think of your body .. what is more painfull chopping ur hands off or chopping ur hair off ... chopping ur hair off is more convenient cos it comes under dead part .. similar way we hindus only used to eat plantts fruits which were alreadfy fallen .. but now te time is such that every thing has changed but still it is less painfull for a plant than to kill a animal .. one must hear and see the pain they undergo ... they try their best to speak but they cant and we take advantage of that .. later in hell we are also forced to go thriugh same procedure .. hope u got ur answer
God gives signs. If your food is falling out your hands or roti (chapati) is falling from your hands when you take it off the tava or outcof your hands god goddess is giving you a sign that you put food once a month on a full moon day infront of them. Then you have as parshaad. This is direct from the divine when they tell their devotees in their dreams or people who have direct communication with the divine. Love & light. Be a good human it's not about dissing religions. I am of sikh comb but i worship my divine goddess who is showing me the way .
Dear one! plz have the privilege to meet Mata Amritandmaye.... Just google nd find when she comes to your country.... For sure all your questions will be disappeared... Love you ❤🙏
Every incarnation of God is already mentioned in the scripture. And there is only one God Krishna. Quotation from the Vedanta Sutra. ŚB 1.3.28 एते चांशकला: पुंस: कृष्णस्तु भगवान् स्वयम् । इन्द्रारिव्याकुलं लोकं मृडयन्ति युगे युगे ॥ २८ ॥ ete cāṁśa-kalāḥ puṁsaḥ kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam indrāri-vyākulaṁ lokaṁ ŚB 1.3.28 एते चांशकला: पुंस: कृष्णस्तु भगवान् स्वयम् । इन्द्रारिव्याकुलं लोकं मृडयन्ति युगे युगे ॥ २८ ॥ TRANSLATION: All of the above-mentioned incarnations are either plenary portions or portions of the plenary portions of the Lord, but Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the original Personality of Godhead. All of them appear on planets whenever there is a disturbance created by the atheists. The Lord incarnates to protect the theists.
JAYA JAYA SHRI KRUSHNA! A devotee believes that God accepts and eats the offerings of the devotees. This belief is important. In Gita, my Lord says, 'Patram, Pushpam, Falam, Toyam ..........ashnami prayatmanam.' 'Ashnami' means 'I eat'. God says, He eats. After this, there must be no doubt. Hence, there is no need of this explanation because, it presumes a doubt. So, this is an offence against God. The video should be removed. HARI BOL!
We all are a part of the godhead so in the way alone yes he was a incarnated God. But he was on a spiritual journey to being closer to God.he not god God himself and is not worthy of worship.he stayed in the temples and begged to see the form of kali.further proving he is not God that he was in a path just like us all.yea he was more closer more enlightened than most.and anyone that follows his teaching we draw closer to the God head.just because one does as he does don't mean his soul wont have other physical lifes.that's up to his soul not him the personality or his students or followers.so I dont understand why anyone would worship his image.he was a student himself not like he came with knowledge like with Krishna.
It is incorrect to make blanket statements to include 'every religion and every prophet'. People should be well-informed to know that Hinduism does not have prophets and neither do Buddhism and Jainism. Only Abrahmic ones have them and they DO NOT believe in all this. And since the entire principle is based on a personal internalised BELIEF it is incorrect to include any non-hindus into this concept. In theory anything can happen due to past karmas. But that is not what this particular subject is about. Many of these old swamis did not understand that even though they had many personal spiritual acheivements. Many newer converts to other religions carry over their Hindu beliefs and so you may see a hotch potch version of the same which adds to the confusion. Please see videos by Ravi Malhotra for more eye-opening info.
But you are wasting food and resources. I don't mean to be rude by saying this but this thought crosses my mind everyday. You see I live amongst 1000s of people who offer food to idols, twice a day. There is a shrine literally 2 minutes away from me. Every single day, with my own eyes I see people come and clean the shrine because of all these insects/mice and then throw the food away. I've estimated $300 per month gets thrown away. Multiply that by 12 months, then multiply that by year's. And of course I don't mean no disrespect, if you think it's rational and logical and you're happy then so be it.
I actually want to know why do we worship Guru instead of GOD as the Gurus themselves did. Also putting idol of GURU as another GOD. Gurus were also human who realized God , definitely they are great but are not for worship. Or this concept might be like worship everyone who realized GOD. Secondly why to keep idol when the Truth is GOD is Everywhere, why don't we follow the truth why do we need any photo or Idol to worship him, why don't we pray him as he is (everywhere) from anywhere . Expecting positive comments, only for the purpose of discussion to know the Truth.
Lol, the reasoning behind it not being far fetched is simply because there have been some subjective accounts of it occurring...simply a case of rationalisation as opposed to reasoning. This is a poor representation of Vedantic philosophy.
"Only one enlightened person" sought of opinion is the only cause of disharmony around the world amongst religions and faiths. how can there be a logic behind only one person being enlightened in the world for so many ages!!!
The following verses from the Yajurveda.... PEOPLE GOD DOESN'T HAVE AVATAR... ITS AGAINST TEACHINGS OF HINDUISM.. "na tasya pratima asti "There is no image of Him." [Yajurveda 32:3]5 "shudhama poapvidham" "He is bodyless and pure." [Yajurveda 40:8]6 "Andhatama pravishanti ye asambhuti mupaste" "They enter darkness, those who worship the natural elements" (Air, Water, Fire, etc.). "They sink deeper in darkness, those who worship sambhuti." [Yajurveda 40:9]7 Sambhuti means created things, for example table, chair, idol, etc.
YOur conception of what Idol worship is is quite wrong. hence your confusion. Watch this video to understand that idol worship is not worshiping the stone or some natural element like air water etc, And that God is both formless and with form as the yogis like sri ramakrishna have confirmed with their spiritual experiences. th-cam.com/video/xy87pFZ8STQ/w-d-xo.html
so proud to be hindu .. this is whatw e learn .. sometime when i bump into any other religious site .. oh god .. its soo poisinous .. so much of hate they spread among followers for hinduism .. i must have done some good deeds .. thank you god ..
Deepurani bedage proud is ego..do meditation ..be thankful
It's because of ignorance and insecurity some religious fanatics spread hatred. Such poor souls have either not understood or wrongly interpreted the holy scriptures.
And in due course. they too sh all overcome ignorance, as all have to be back to the original Home., which is ONLY ONE.
Sad for you.

Ya most of the books are already translated in english.
Dear brother, in Bhagavad Gita Lord says that I am love. Love is devotion. Love is true worship. If you love God with sincere heart you are worshipping him the best way. All other rituals are only to help you to love God. Don't get mislead by Hippocratic worshipers. Ask God he will guide you.
This is so beautiful. Thank you so much, Pulkit. I needed this answer 🙏☺️
Greatful to you for your expectations.
appreciate the way details shared and explained for the religious customs followed so religiously
Just love your amazing video's. Logic and simplicity at its best.
thanks Anurag!
Thank you for making this in-sight-full video! I loved it. Please make more with CC! I'm deaf and it's hard for me to find spiritual Hindu videos on YT with CC. Namaste.
Dear Bhavya, Thanks for letting me know that you found the captions helpful. I will certainly include them in all future videos as well. More videos are in the pipeline, so do subscribe if you have not already done so,

These explanations of your's are very joyful to watch. Like you, i also wish to integrate my soul with this omnipotence of divinity. Please keep up the good work.
Hinduism is beautiful and scientific!

There is a father . He has a wife and a son . One day while coming from home he brings his son a packet of chips. Son was extremely elated to receive that . He took that packet and run away. After some time he came and offered his father some chips. Though the father had no craving for that but he got emotional and happy because child offered it to him. It happens mostly in each and every family right ? So god don't need food as he/ she owns the entire world. But god is convinced by our affection towards god
@@kramya1868 so you are saying we as human are god son and who is our mother then
hahahaha

Wonderful. Thank you for all your efforts .Stay blessed.
Wonderfully explained the topic, thnx n regards
Glad you liked it Kiran :-)
A Good presentation and which every laymen understands.
Thank you ma'am...Very helpful video
Its based on aura/pranamaya kosha/subtle body. The deity's prana absorbs part of the food's prana. When you eat, your prana absorbs the food prana. Now both diety and your prana have a bit of common prana (ie) from food. This makes a connection with the deity. As you progress, the deity will appear in your dreams and protect and nurture you in various ways. In advanced level of progress, the deity will physically manifest and eat the food as is mentioned in the life stories of many saints.
You can eat any food, but before eating, with intense concentration offer it mentally to your deity. This would deepen the connection. In fact, make it a sadhana to always pray to your deity and offer it mentally. You can be anywhere in the world, physical proximity doesnt matter.
This was more clear, although I knew God would eat offerings, thank you loads
Ma'am, i love your videos. Please keep making such videos
Thanks a ton for sharing your knowledge with us !!! I really LOVE this video ! DO WHAT YOUR HEART SAYS CUZ THAT ONE GOD TALKS WITH US VIA OUR HEART :) Parent which is GOD only want the happiness of her/his children !
Too good 👍👍👍
I've been offering all of my meals to my Guru Amma for awhile now. I love doing that.
good explanation ji..
Excellent explanation!!! I would like to present my observation as follows:
Concept of Hinduism is monotheist not polytheist. Its often misinterpreted as monotheist religion because Hinduism is such an old religion a way of life, it has witnessed lot of teachers which we call God, gurus, etc. God is one and we as human being see him in different form. The GOD or any guru which we relates to or the one which answers our query about spiritual presence becomes our guru and later worshiped as GOD. Its very true that in Hinduism, followers do idol worship, however the concept is well explained in this video regarding the philosophy behind it.
thank you so much for making such videos.
huge fan of your videos logical n spiritual at same time...and it is magic of hinduism which believe in one god despite having so many gods whereas other religions like islam tries to demean other religions...likes of zakir hussain are perfect example
Thank U so much 🙏🙏🙏
Prabhupada In Bhagawad Gita
“ As It Is “ says we can go beyond the act of offering our food to Krshna.
We can picturise the actual act of the lord partaking our offering in our minds.
So depending on how one has developed their relationship with the lord, the act of offering and the actual act of the lord eating can be visualised. One can be cooking the lord’s food, one can be serving, one can be seated and eating with the lord or one can be feeding the lord.
I am in absolute bliss when I offer my food to the lord and then dream of the act of feeding the food on my plate to Infant Krshna. I used to do it with my daughter and now feeding the lord sitting on my lap is one my daily joys.
Thank you Prabhupada Guruji and Lord Krshna …….🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
beautiful
Nice explanation but I was wondering if a person who is devoted to God but on the other side ignorant towards the poor and needy people will God still bless him?
Deep Biswas we don't develop evenly. Sometimes we may see a person is very good in one aspect but quite bad in another and that is because this person is still evolving. His or her development is still incomplete.
+Deep Biswas God is 'Love', attainment of God is in the unification of oneself with the Universe(humans,animals and objects)through 'Love'. Hence a person can't be devoted to God and still look down upon poor people. A person chanting mantras may not be a devotee but may only be another human being looking for material gains.
+The Spiritual Bee are you enlightened ?
the one who realizes aham brahmasi will see everything as extension of himself . how can he be ignorant towards the needy . but this is true that most schools of Indian philosophy appear to be focusing on personal salvation rather than cosmic salvation .
Deep Biswas Answer according to our Puranas is NO.. offer a portion to god and give away the rest to the needy. You may not visit a temple if you help anyone in need. Needy need not be a poor begger, it can be an old uncle who you help with lifting a heavy bag in the market or standing by a lonely woman and making her feel secure (without asking for any return)
Regarding offering of food/life force within the food, this time for someone that just died. Will the food help them during the transition period?
thanks i love this!!!
Yes without any doubt....
Too good English.
Yes , He eats
If we have faith in nature
And having kindness to the natural things
Very beautiful belief you have. This video makes me curious. I have one question, please: If God is one, do we need all the other gods and goddesses? I mean if they never existed; would God not be enough to worship?
I think God would be so much happier if we shared the food with the poor and needy instead of placing it in front of the temple... The former would be a much more beautiful method to invoke his grace. Isnt it so?
Loved dis video
May God bless you, you beautiful soul! 💓
Thankuuu
brilliant !!
a nice work done by you. in think slightly diffrently. as you know a devoti prays god just not for god. but for his own development.and the whole thing happens in the devoties mind as said by swami sivanand.this the case of thourougly faith.the lord or the god touches the food or not i dont know but i know one thing it is my mind, my BHAV which toches the food and god.which change the belief of my mind.because every offering food to god are not getting the change in the test in prasd. only few are there getting that.
and they are pure hearted,devotional persons who are blessed by god.
I have seen different methods of meditation to attain Supreme being n know oneself as soul. Mainly it is either by visualization or concentrating on breath and getting thoughtless. Can this practice help us to understand spiritual world of almighty
thank you so much!!
Pranam
Yes I agree with you, becaz in Maharashtra also lord Vitthal eat food from the great bhakt Namdev Maharaj
Kanchan Meher. its amazing Allah does not need to be fed he is almighty and divine enough
Y authentic info.
How can we get rid of cycle of birth and death
Very true.
What is OM ?
Hello I have a different way of understanding the significance of a "Prasad" in our traditions,I thought I might share it with you. I'll begin by saying in India temples are not only places of worship but play a very important role in people's daily lives and the prasad which is offered to God is later on distributed to the masses, which is a way of social service by the temples, therefore any offering made by the devotees in the name of the God will reach the people and also once the offering is made the devotee has disowned the food, therefore it also removes the factor of a person as an individual offering the food as it eventually reaches the people as the food consumed by the God. Pls. feel free to comment.
Dhanyavaad .
The Hindus religion are very loving respectful people especially towards elders and different religions.
pls make a vidio on health..why we sick.?..karma...
Hello,
Are you on Twitter and Facebook?
Please give your links on Twitter & Facebook.
Thanks.
nice video didi :) . Regarding God appearing in physical form, I feel it would also comprise ants,insects and other beings that eat them as all their form is that of the manifestation of God. ?.and about interesting and common scenes where snakes and other animals seem to intentionally drink milk or food offered to a deity, or worship a deity.This supposedly happens as divine beings at times take form or 'possess' these beings to perform some act as stated :).
Hello Vinnith bhai! sorry for the late reply, i got a bit tied up. Sri Ramakrishna did give prasad to a cat because he saw the divine mother in its soul as well. So yes God exists in all creatures. One just needs an evolved consciousness to actually see and realize this fact.
Thanks didi :) . It reminds me of Shirdi Sai story as well..when a lady feeds a dog ,and then when she visits sai,sai tells her he is contended with her food,that he is still belching.. she was confused and then sai explains that he is one with all creatures.One who see's divinity or God in all creatures is his beloved.
Vinnith Rama Murti Allah dont need to appear in form nor do he need to eat or drink
@@thephenomenalone8638 nowadays mosques and churches are also blessing food and distrbuting ti those who go for prayers. Copying hindus too in their version but call distributing food after prayers
ganesan ganesan we do not feed the one and only
Can you please do a video on this topic: God is one infinite ocean of consciousness.. I see God as Shri Ram though.. Some one else might see God as Shiva.. This wave of consciousness can manifest in different forms, I understand. So the form it manifests itself in, is it based on the faith of the person involved? If I visualize God as Shri Ram, will the infinite ocean of consciousness reveal to me as Shri Ram or Ganesha?
We also see Vishnu sitting on a snake, Where is He? Is He in that form right now? Sorry, confused myself in the end, but I think you get the idea..
thanks bee...
I have not heard or read about your Guru. I have read all the other books. Could you talk about him in next video or blog.
Hi Mukut, Sorry for the delay in replying. My first gurudev is Pandit Shriram Sharma. His website is www.awgp.org. Besides him I also consider Swami Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindo and Rabindranath Tagore as my gurus.
I will keep your suggestion in mind for putting together something on Shriram Sharma, though I am afraid it won't be any time in the immediate future. I am focusing right now on some new videos on Samadhi which are taking up considerable time. But yes I will eventually introduce more material from him - as he was a HUGE powerhouse.
Take care pulkit
Awgpharidhar
+The Spiritual Bee how is Tagore coming in this genre Pulkit?
You post some really amazing videos and your ability to explain is awesome :) Anyways I have a question? Is this tradition of "offering" a part of "Bhakti Yoga"? And if so what i dont get is if god is infinite consciousness and is beyond polar opposites of good and evil,pleasure and pain etc then why does he care if we "love" him or not? I mean isn't consciousness by its very nature supposed to be devoid of anything? Also cwhen lord krishna tells arjuna to do karma yoga by offering all actions unto him is it the same as offerings that we give to the temple? Thanks in advance for your reply,keep up the good work :)
The tradition of offering creates a sense of divine love in your heart.Sharing the offering with others creates a sense of fulfillment without your knowledge and induce to repeat this divine act for the benefit of all.
Proud to be a Hindu.
Nice work, I would love to write about my view related to this video----
Even to understand and realize this concept of omnipresent infinite consciousness, it needs very high degree of devotion. It don't come from an ordinary logic, its far beyond the boundary of logic and intellect. Infinite ocean of divine consciousness is existing throughout the universe, in its omnipresent nature. We are not separated beings from this infinite consciousness from the point of spirit, rather we are in it, we are part of it and we are it itself, like the different waves in the same ocean, though appear separated but they are the same ocean. Similarly, we look separated from the infinite consciousness by this body and mind structure. By crossing the boundary of body and mind, if we can land and live in the field of spirit which is our true nature, then we can really feel this oneness with the universal consciousness. Now this omnipresent consciousness can interact with the sincere devotees coz he is existing in the field of oneness for the time being. When one will be able to hold a clean and sincere heart, with continuous and patient effort, then actually he will be able to feel the oneness with the Infinite consciousness and he can feel its presence coz he himself will be in that state for the moment. So Its all about being and becoming one with the Infinite consciousness in order to realize it. Otherwise we cannot understand it just by the Panchendriya reasoning, it can lead upto few steps only. One has to know about the nature of the spirit or consciousness both personal and universal, u have to learn to discriminate about the eternal and temporary truths about life. Dont expect u will see this kind of things with ur eyes and play with ur hands, rather, u will develop a superfine perception with time about the higher truths in this field. But as mentioned in this video, the customs, rituals always help for the beginners, worldly minded people to develop the attitude of gratefulness, sharing, compassion etc. which in turn will lead one to the level of feeling oneness with the universal consciousness or being and becoming a God Man.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful thoughts Bappaditya. They are so so TRUE!
You have stated the reality beautifully!
Do forgive my delay in replying, I got a bit caught up,
Pulkit
i like her accent so cute
but we all are gods, if am not wrong. the whole creation is divine or god. its just dat we haven't realized who we are actually
We are not god
But we are tiny particle of infinite god
We are just his lover or servent either directly to god or to his illusary energy (maya)
I have a question,I identify as Hindu and I know that god is infinite but I feel like they only speak languages from India for some reason
Adolfo Cortez no dear, whatever language you pray in, God will understand as he can read your thoughts. Languages merely express thoughts in words. For example when one feels very angry one can't even find the words sometimes to express this feeling. So words and language are immaterial. Thoughts and emotions are what matter. And more than anything God is within each of us as the Soul of our soul. So feel free to converse with him in any language you feel comfortable.
A story related to the above topic which is helpful for better understanding
ನೈವೇದ್ಯ: ಆ ದೇವರು ನಾವಿಟ್ಟ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ತಿನ್ನುವನೇನು?
ಒಬ್ಬ ಗುರು ಮತ್ತು ಶಿಷ್ಯರ ಸಂವಾದ ಹೀಗೆ ನಡೆದಿತ್ತು.
ದೇವರನ್ನು ನಂಬದ ಶಿಷ್ಯನೊಬ್ಬ ತನ್ನ ಗುರುವನ್ನು " ದೇವರು ನಾವು ಮಾಡುವ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸುವನೇ? ಹಾಗೆ ನಾವು ನೀಡುವ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸಿದರೆ ನಾವು 'ಪ್ರಸಾದ' ವಿನಿಯೋಗ ಮಾಡುವುದು ಹೇಗೆ? ಆ ದೇವರು ನಾವು ನೀಡುವ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ನಿಜವಾಗಿಯೂ ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸುವನೇ ಗುರುಗಳೇ?" ಎಂದು ಪ್ರಶ್ನಿಸಿದ.
ಗುರುಗಳು ಯಾವ ಉತ್ತರವನ್ನೂ ನೀಡದೆ ಆ ಶಿಷ್ಯನಿಗೆ ತರಗತಿಗೆ ತಯಾರಾಗಲು ಆದೇಶಿಸಿದರು.
ಆ ದಿನ ಗುರುಗಳು 'ಉಪನಿಷತ್ತು' ಗಳ ಪಾಠವನ್ನು ಆರಂಭಿಸಿದರು. ಶಿಷ್ಯರಿಗೆ ' ಪೂರ್ಣಮದಃ ಪೂರ್ಣಮಿದಂ ಪೂರ್ಣಾತ್ ಪೂರ್ಣಮುದಚ್ಯತೇ ...... ಎಂಬ ಮಂತ್ರದ ಬೋಧನೆಯನ್ನು ಮಾಡಿ, ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಯ ಎಲ್ಲವೂ ಪೂರ್ಣದಿಂದಲೇ ಆಗಿರುತ್ತದೆ, ಪೂರ್ಣಕ್ಕೆ ಪೂರ್ಣವನ್ನು ಸೇರಿಸಿದರೆ ಅಥವಾ ಪೂರ್ಣದಿಂದ ಪೂರ್ಣವನ್ನು ಕಳೆದರೆ ಪೂರ್ಣವೇ ಉಳಿಯುತ್ತದೆ, ಎಂದು ವಿವರಿಸಿದರು.
ನಂತರ ಎಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ಈಶಾವಾಸ್ಯೋಪನಿಷತ್ತಿನ ಮಂತ್ರಗಳನ್ನು ಕಂಠಸ್ಥ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಆದೇಶಿಸಿದರು. ಎಲ್ಲಾ ವಿದ್ಯಾರ್ಥಿಗಳೂ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ ತೊಡಗಿದರು. ಹೀಗೆ ಎರಡು ಮೂರುದಿನಗಳ ಸತತ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸದ ನಂತರ, ಗುರುಗಳು, ಆ ನೈವೇದ್ಯದ ವಿಚಾರವಾಗಿ ತನ್ನ ಸಂದೇಹವನ್ನು ವ್ಯಕ್ತಪಡಿಸಿದ ಶಿಷ್ಯನನ್ನು ಕರೆದು, ಅಭ್ಯಾಸಮಾಡಿದ ಮಂತ್ರಗಳನ್ನು ಪುಸ್ತಕವನ್ನು ನೋಡದೆ ಹೇಳಲು, ಹೇಳಿದರು. ಆ ಶಿಷ್ಯ ಕಂಠಸ್ಥ ಹೇಳಿ, ಒಪ್ಪಿಸಿದ.
ಆಗ, ಗುರುಗಳು ಮುಗುಳುನಗುತ್ತಾ ' ಪುಸ್ತಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಗಿದೆಯೋ ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಬಾಯಿಪಾಠ ಮಾಡಿದೆಯಾ?" ಎಂದು ಪ್ರಶ್ನಿಸಿದರು. ' ಹೌದು ಗುರುಗಳೇ ನಾನು ಆ ಪುಸ್ತಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಗಿದೆಯೋ ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಆ ಮಂತ್ರಗಳ ಉಚ್ಛಾರಣೆ ಮಾಡಿದೆ, ಗುರುಗಳೇ' ಎಂದು ಉತ್ತರಿಸಿದ.
" ನೀನು ಆ ಪುಸ್ತಕದಲ್ಲಿನ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಪದಗಳನ್ನೂ ನಿನ್ನ ಮನಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದೀಯೆ ಎಂದಮೇಲೆ ಆ ಪುಸ್ತಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಆ ಪದಗಳು ಇನ್ನೂ ಅಲ್ಲೇ ಇವೆಯಲ್ಲ?" ಎಂದು ಗುರುಗಳು ಕೇಳಿದರು. ಶಿಷ್ಯ ಪಿಳಿಪಿಳಿ ಕಣ್ಣುಬಿಡುತ್ತಾ ನಿಂತ. ಗುರುಗಳು " ನಿನ್ನ ಮನಸ್ಸಿನಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಪದಗಳು ' ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿವೆ' ಮತ್ತು ಪುಸ್ತಕದಲ್ಲಿನ ಪದಗಳು 'ಸ್ಥೂಲಸ್ಥಿತಿ' ಯಲ್ಲಿವೆ " ಎಂದರು.
ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ಆ ದೇವರೂ ಸಹ ' ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮ ಸ್ಥಿತಿ' ಯಲ್ಲಿದ್ದಾನೆ. ನಮ್ಮ ಕಣ್ಣಿಗೆ ಕಾಣುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ನಾವು ಅವನಿಗೆ ಮಾಡುವ ನೈವೇದ್ಯ 'ಸ್ಥೂಲ ಸ್ಥಿತಿ'ಯಲ್ಲಿದೆ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಆ ದೇವರು ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಯಲ್ಲಿಯೇ ಆ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸುವುದರಿಂದ, ನಾವು ಕೊಟ್ಟ ನೈವೇದ್ಯ ಅವನು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸಿದ ಮೇಲೂ ಕಿಂಚಿತ್ತೂ ಕಡಿಮೆಯಾಗುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.
"ನಾವು ಮಾಡಿದ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವನ್ನು ಆ ದೇವರು ಸೂಕ್ಷರೂಪದಲ್ಲಿ ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸುತ್ತಾನೆ, ನಂತರ ನಾವು ಆ ನೈವೇದ್ಯವೆಂದೇ ' ಪ್ರಸಾದ' ವೆಂದು ಸ್ಥೂಲರೂಪದಲ್ಲಿ ಪಡೆಯುತ್ತೇವೆ" ಎಂದು ಗುರುಗಳು ವಿವರಿಸಿದರು. ಈ ಮಾತುಗಳನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿ ಆ ಶಿಷ್ಯ ' ದೇವರಲ್ಲಿ' ತನ್ನ ಅಪನಂಬಿಕೆಗೆ ನೊಂದು ಗುರುಗಳಿಗೆ ಶರಣಾದ. ಹೀಗೆಯೇ ನಾವು ಪರಮಾತ್ಮನನ್ನು ನಂಬಿ ನಡೆಸುವ ಹಲವಾರು ಕಾರ್ಯಗಳು ಹೇಗೆ ಸಾರ್ಥಕ್ಯವನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯುತ್ತವೆ ಎಂಬುದಕ್ಕೆ ಈ ಕೆಲ ವಿಷಯಗಳನ್ನು ಗಮನಿಸಿ.
ನಾವು ಉಣ್ಣುವ ಆಹಾರದಲ್ಲಿ 'ಭಕ್ತಿ' ಹೊಕ್ಕರೆ
ಅದು ' ಪ್ರಸಾದ' ವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.....
ನಮ್ಮ ಹಸಿವಿಗೆ 'ಭಕ್ತಿ' ಹೊಕ್ಕರೆ
ಅದು ' ಉಪವಾಸ' ವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ......
ನಾವು 'ಭಕ್ತಿ' ಕುಡಿದರೆ
ಅದು 'ಚರಣಾಮೃತ' ವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ......
ನಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರಯಾಣ ' ಭಕ್ತಿ' ಪೂರ್ಣವಾದರೆ
ಅದು ' ತೀರ್ಥಯಾತ್ರೆ' ಯಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.......
ನಾವು ಹಾಡುವ ಸಂಗೀತ' ಭಕ್ತಿ' ಮಯವಾದರೆ
ಅದು 'ಕೀರ್ತನೆ'ಯಾಗುತ್ತದೆ......
ನಮ್ಮ ವಾಸದ ಮನೆಯೊಳಕ್ಕೆ' ಭಕ್ತಿ ' ತುಂಬಿದರೆ
ನಮ್ಮ ಮನೆಯೇ ' ಮಂದಿರ ' ವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.......
ನಮ್ಮ ಕ್ರಿಯೆ ' ಭಕ್ತಿ' ಪೂರಿತವಾದರೆ
ನಮ್ಮ ಕಾರ್ಯಗಳು ' ಸೇವೆ' ಯಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.....
ನಾವು ಮಾಡುವ ಕೆಲಸದಲ್ಲಿ' ಭಕ್ತಿ ' ಇದ್ದರೆ
ಅದು ನಮ್ಮ ' ಕರ್ಮ ' ವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.....
ನಮ್ಮ ಹೃದಯದಲ್ಲಿ ' ಭಕ್ತಿ ' ತುಂಬಿದರೆ
ನಾವು ಮಾನವರಾಗುತ್ತೇವೆ.....
ನಮ್ಮ ವಿಚಾರವಿನಿಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ' ಭಕ್ತಿ' ಇದ್ದರೆ
ಅದು ' ಸತ್ಸಂಗ' ವಾಗುತ್ತದೆ....

Does 84 lacs yoni exist
yes...we have all progressed through innumerable life forms from insects to animals to human
@@Spiritualbee thnx a lot for answering. Nxt I want to know can anyone again fall in animal due to his very bad karma
Again starting from 84 lacs yoni.
everywhere on earth ? i wonder, i offered them non veg. & it turns !!
please reply to this..
suppose a mother has 3 children .. in order to make mother happy a more powerful child goes and kills the less fortunate child who cant talk .. packs it in precious gift paper and puts some designs on the gift .. goes to mother and offers the gift to mother ... mother opens it .. now you answer what will be reaction of mother will she accept it just because u have added ur so called love or will she be angry that you cuased a grt deal of pain to what she created
now you will ask what vegetariansims
think of your body .. what is more painfull chopping ur hands off or chopping ur hair off ... chopping ur hair off is more convenient cos it comes under dead part ..
similar way we hindus only used to eat plantts fruits which were alreadfy fallen .. but now te time is such that every thing has changed but still it is less painfull for a plant than to kill a animal .. one must hear and see the pain they undergo ... they try their best to speak but they cant and we take advantage of that .. later in hell we are also forced to go thriugh same procedure ..
hope u got ur answer
Deepurani bedage nice explanation
Saw gp haridhar
God gives signs. If your food is falling out your hands or roti (chapati) is falling from your hands when you take it off the tava or outcof your hands god goddess is giving you a sign that you put food once a month on a full moon day infront of them. Then you have as parshaad. This is direct from the divine when they tell their devotees in their dreams or people who have direct communication with the divine. Love & light. Be a good human it's not about dissing religions. I am of sikh comb but i worship my divine goddess who is showing me the way .
really greate work.... but i wanna suggest to see "sadhguru videos " (jaggi vasudev) greate yogi of our time..
Dear one! plz have the privilege to meet Mata Amritandmaye.... Just google nd find when she comes to your country.... For sure all your questions will be disappeared... Love you ❤🙏
Every incarnation of God is already mentioned in the scripture. And there is only one God Krishna. Quotation from the Vedanta Sutra.
ŚB 1.3.28
एते चांशकला: पुंस: कृष्णस्तु भगवान् स्वयम् ।
इन्द्रारिव्याकुलं लोकं मृडयन्ति युगे युगे ॥ २८ ॥
ete cāṁśa-kalāḥ puṁsaḥ
kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam
indrāri-vyākulaṁ lokaṁ
ŚB 1.3.28
एते चांशकला: पुंस: कृष्णस्तु भगवान् स्वयम् ।
इन्द्रारिव्याकुलं लोकं मृडयन्ति युगे युगे ॥ २८ ॥
TRANSLATION:
All of the above-mentioned incarnations are either plenary portions or portions of the plenary portions of the Lord, but Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the original Personality of Godhead. All of them appear on planets whenever there is a disturbance created by the atheists. The Lord incarnates to protect the theists.
I'm agree
Lord Krishna manifests in a transcendental body NOT a physical one.....you are mistaken
👌👌👌😍
My soul is not at peace, I want to feel the divine energy
Kya hua!!!!
Chant the Hare Krishna Maha mantra
JAYA JAYA SHRI KRUSHNA! A devotee believes that God accepts and eats the offerings of the devotees. This belief is important. In Gita, my Lord says, 'Patram, Pushpam, Falam, Toyam ..........ashnami prayatmanam.' 'Ashnami' means 'I eat'. God says, He eats. After this, there must be no doubt. Hence, there is no need of this explanation because, it presumes a doubt. So, this is an offence against God. The video should be removed. HARI BOL!
Doosri Radha alias Debendra Kishore Panda how can god eat if food is still there?
Doosri Radha alias Debendra Kishore Panda allah does not eat so he is already perfect and all mighty enough
We all are a part of the godhead so in the way alone yes he was a incarnated God. But he was on a spiritual journey to being closer to God.he not god God himself and is not worthy of worship.he stayed in the temples and begged to see the form of kali.further proving he is not God that he was in a path just like us all.yea he was more closer more enlightened than most.and anyone that follows his teaching we draw closer to the God head.just because one does as he does don't mean his soul wont have other physical lifes.that's up to his soul not him the personality or his students or followers.so I dont understand why anyone would worship his image.he was a student himself not like he came with knowledge like with Krishna.
Its a ritual, why would God need to eat ?.
It is incorrect to make blanket statements to include 'every religion and every prophet'. People should be well-informed to know that Hinduism does not have prophets and neither do Buddhism and Jainism. Only Abrahmic ones have them and they DO NOT believe in all this. And since the entire principle is based on a personal internalised BELIEF it is incorrect to include any non-hindus into this concept. In theory anything can happen due to past karmas. But that is not what this particular subject is about. Many of these old swamis did not understand that even though they had many personal spiritual acheivements. Many newer converts to other religions carry over their Hindu beliefs and so you may see a hotch potch version of the same which adds to the confusion. Please see videos by Ravi Malhotra for more eye-opening info.
And some people say we are wasting the food and milk🤣🤣🤣🤣
But you are wasting food and resources. I don't mean to be rude by saying this but this thought crosses my mind everyday.
You see I live amongst 1000s of people who offer food to idols, twice a day. There is a shrine literally 2 minutes away from me. Every single day, with my own eyes I see people come and clean the shrine because of all these insects/mice and then throw the food away.
I've estimated $300 per month gets thrown away. Multiply that by 12 months, then multiply that by year's.
And of course I don't mean no disrespect, if you think it's rational and logical and you're happy then so be it.
@@freeyourmind7538 the food is offered as bhog to the divine and eaten as prasad…it is not wasted
I am not convinced with the explanation of Prasad.
I actually want to know why do we worship Guru instead of GOD as the Gurus themselves did. Also putting idol of GURU as another GOD. Gurus were also human who realized God , definitely they are great but are not for worship. Or this concept might be like worship everyone who realized GOD.
Secondly why to keep idol when the Truth is GOD is Everywhere, why don't we follow the truth why do we need any photo or Idol to worship him, why don't we pray him as he is (everywhere) from anywhere .
Expecting positive comments, only for the purpose of discussion to know the Truth.
Lol, the reasoning behind it not being far fetched is simply because there have been some subjective accounts of it occurring...simply a case of rationalisation as opposed to reasoning. This is a poor representation of Vedantic philosophy.
Your karmS r the nest food for divine u eat prasD and day that god tkrs prasad
Are avataras really God in human or animal form or are they prophets..

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I think with respect u should listen to osho discourses he is only one enlighened person in my opinion
"Only one enlightened person" sought of opinion is the only cause of disharmony around the world amongst religions and faiths. how can there be a logic behind only one person being enlightened in the world for so many ages!!!
The following verses from the Yajurveda.... PEOPLE GOD DOESN'T HAVE AVATAR... ITS AGAINST TEACHINGS OF HINDUISM..
"na tasya pratima asti
"There is no image of Him."
[Yajurveda 32:3]5
"shudhama poapvidham"
"He is bodyless and pure."
[Yajurveda 40:8]6
"Andhatama pravishanti ye asambhuti mupaste"
"They enter darkness, those who worship the natural elements" (Air, Water, Fire, etc.). "They sink deeper in darkness, those who worship sambhuti."
[Yajurveda 40:9]7 Sambhuti means created things, for example table, chair, idol, etc.
YOur conception of what Idol worship is is quite wrong. hence your confusion.
Watch this video to understand that idol worship is not worshiping the stone or some natural element like air water etc,
And that God is both formless and with form as the yogis like sri ramakrishna have confirmed with their spiritual experiences.
