Navratri: Celebrating the Divine Feminine and the Triumph of Good over Evil

Navratri is a nine-day festival that is celebrated with great enthusiasm and devotion in India. The word Navratri is derived from two words, ‘Nav’ which means ‘nine’, and ‘Ratri’ which means ‘night’. It is observed twice a year, once in the spring (Chaitra Navratri) and then in the autumn (Sharad Navratri). This festival is dedicated to the worship of the divine feminine, the goddess Durga, and her various incarnations.

During Navratri, people across India fast, pray and perform various rituals to honor the goddess. The festival begins with the worship of Maa Shailputri, the first form of Durga, and is followed by the worship of Brahmacharini, Chandraghanta, Kushmanda, Skandamata, Katyayani, Kalratri, Mahagauri, and finally, Siddhidatri.

Each day of Navratri has its own significance and rituals. People clean their houses, decorate them with flowers and lights, and wear new clothes. In many regions of India, people also perform Garba and Dandiya Raas, which are traditional folk dances that are performed in circles. The dancers move in a circular motion, clapping their hands and hitting sticks in time with the music.

One of the most important aspects of Navratri is fasting. People abstain from food and some even from water during the day, and then break their fast in the evening with a special meal. The fast is observed to purify the body and mind and show devotion to the goddess.

Another important part of Navratri is the puja, or prayer ceremony. During the puja, devotees offer flowers, fruits, and other items to the goddess and seek her blessings. Special mantras and hymns are recited during the ceremony to honor the goddess.

Navratri is a time to celebrate the triumph of good over evil and to seek the blessings of the divine feminine. It is a festival that unites people of all ages and backgrounds and brings them together to celebrate the power and grace of the goddess. May the blessings of the divine mother be with you always. Jai Mata Di!

The FM stuck to the fiscal deficit roadmap in the Budget with a target of 5.9% in FY 24 and adhering to the target for the current year.

Elon Musk explains why his daughter can’t marry a poor man!

Wealth is first of all a state of mind.

A few years ago there was a conference in the United States on investment and finance. One of the speakers was Elon Musk and during the question and answer session, he was asked a question that had everyone laughing.

If he, the richest man in the world, could accept that his daughter marry a poor or modest man.

His answer can change something in everyone.

Elon Musk – First of all, understand that
Wealth does not mean having a fat bank account. Wealth is primarily the ability to create wealth.
Example: Someone who wins the lottery or gambling. Even if he wins 100 millions is not a rich man: He is a poor man with a lot of money. That’s the reason why 90% of the lottery millionaires become poor again after 5 years.

You also have rich people who have no money.
Example: Most entrepreneurs.
THEY are already on the road to wealth even though they have no money, because they are developing their financial intelligence and that is wealth.

How are the rich and the poor different?

To put it simply: The rich may die to become rich, while the poor may kill to become rich.

If you see a young person who decides to train, to learn new things, who tries to improve himself constantly, know that he is a rich man.

If you see a young person who thinks that the problem is the state, and who thinks that the rich are all thieves and who criticizes constantly, know that he is a poor man.

The rich are convinced that they just need information and training to take off, the poor think that others must give them money to take off.

In conclusion, when I say that my daughter will not marry a poor man, I am not talking about money. I’m talking about the ability to create wealth in that man.

Excuse me for saying this, but most criminals are poor people. When they are in front of money, they lose their mind, that’s why they rob, steal etc… For them it is a grace because they don’t know how they could earn money by themselves.

One day, the guard of a bank found a bag full of money, he took the bag and went to give it to the bank manager.

People called this man an idiot, but in reality this man was just a rich man who had no money.

One year later, the bank offered him a job as a receptionist, 3 years later he was a customer manager and 10 years later he manages the regional management of this bank, he manages hundreds of employees and his annual bonus exceeds the amount he could have stolen.

Wealth is first of all a state of mind.

So … are u rich or poor?🙂

5 reasons why Career Counselling is important!

“The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot.”

Students are under a lot of pressure – pressure to perform academically, pressure to be popular, pressure to ultimately, make a good life. The one thread that touches upon all these is the choice of one’s career. It is a decision that is often taken under parental or societal duress. However, one must seek proper career counseling and guidance to make the right decision. Career counseling is really beneficial for students, and there are many reasons it is imperative:

  1. Spot an Aptitude: Career counseling helps a student realize true aptitude. While at a junior level, most students perform evenly across subjects. Aptitude tests, conducted by counselors, bring out clearly the strong intellectual areas of a particular student. This empowers the student to make an informed decision when choosing future studies and making career choices.
  2. An Objective Guide: Many times, students grow up with preconceived notions – “I must become a doctor, since my father is one”. Good counseling can quell these notions, and help the student view himself for the individual that he really is. After all, the doctor’s son can actually be more suited to, and more interested in, being a musician!
  3. Evade Confusion: Often, students haven’t developed a clear idea of what they’d want to study by the time they’re due to make those choices. This isn’t necessarily due to any lack of interest; one is simply too young. Seeking career counseling leads to clarity of thought in a student, helps to identify interests, pick the appropriate subjects, and finally, make the choice of the right career.
  4. Career Relation to Education: It is also likely that a student has decided on a particular career, but is not sure of how to qualify for it academically. Seeking counseling helps to put things in proper perspective – the student chooses the right higher education for the chosen career, and likewise, is able to land safely on the career track, due the interest, motivational factors and the chosen stream of education.
  5. What’s Out There: Perhaps the most important facet of career counseling is to simply know what career options abound today. Say, a student has great flair for writing. It is important that the student or individual is well informed about the prospects of taking writing as a career. Lack of information on the will let the individual or student abandon his talent and intellect.

Sadly, career counseling is often overlooked by students, institutions and parents alike. It is a mistake that can prove costly, for it is sound counseling that leads to well-informed, correct career decisions!

Teacher And A Guru…What’s The Difference Between The Two? #GuruPunima2021

The way we use the term ‘guru’ in the west (since we don’t understand it very well) is like a sort of ‘super teacher’.

There are a lot of people that present themselves as gurus, and that has nothing to do with whether they’re gurus or not, in the real sense of the term ‘guru.’

The difference is that a teacher points the way; the guru is the way.

The guru is a cooked goose, all their seeds are burned and they’re free, so when you’re with them, they are a clean mirror, so you only see your own stuff; that’s all you see, you don’t see your stuff mixed with their stuff, because they don’t have any stuff.  With the teacher, you never know what you’re getting, because part of what you see is their stuff, and part of it is your stuff.

You can certainly pick very high teachers. I mean I’m a teacher, obviously, I’m sitting up here teaching – I’m not a guru, but I’m a teacher, and the only way you know them is by your intuitive heart; and my suggestion is that the only thing you owe a teacher is for you to get yourself free. You don’t owe a teacher loyalty. A lot of people say, ‘Well, I’ve been teaching you now, support me or take care of me, or sign and promise me you will’ and I think that’s all nonsense. I think you should take what you can from every teacher, and then go on.

I think that the idea should be to focus on teachings not teachers.

If you focus on teachers rather than teachings, you will spend all your time becoming a connoisseur of clay feet; you know, ‘Is this one pure enough for me to take a teaching from?’ while all I know is when I need a teaching of some sort, I go towards somebody who’s teaching that, and I take the teaching, and I keep taking the part of that which feels intuitively right with my own heart; I do not take any teaching from somebody that goes against my own heart. Every time I have done that, there has been a karmic cost to that, because only intuitively do I know what I need, and I must trust that more than I must trust somebody else telling me what I need.

– Ram Dass, excerpt from the 1989 Summer Retreats – The Listening Heart – Spiritual Practice/Daily Life (Q&A)

Difference between a Guru and a Teacher !!!

6. A teacher is a guide on the path.

A Guru is a pointer to the way.

7. A teacher sends you on the road to success.

A Guru sends you on the road to freedom.

8. A teacher explains the world and its nature to you.

A Guru explains yourself and your nature to you.

9. A teacher instructs you.

A Guru constructs you.

10. A teacher sharpens your mind.

A Guru opens your mind.

11. A teacher reaches your mind.

A Guru touches your soul.

12. A teacher instructs you on how to solve problems.

A Guru shows you how to resolve issues.

13. A teacher is a systematic thinker.

A Guru is a lateral thinker.

14. A teacher leads you by the hand.

A Guru leads you by example.

15.When a teacher finishes with you, you celebrate.

When a Guru finishes with you, life celebrates.

Let us honour both !!

Guru Purnima | 5th July 2020

On a  full moon night or Purnima, one can step out of their house without a torch since the light of the moon will be enough to guide them through the darkness. In the same way our “Gurus” guide us through our dark times and fill our life with the light of knowledge, guidance and experience. In sanskrit, ‘gu’ means darkness and ‘ru’ means remover of darkness. Today is Guru Purnima, a day to thank our Gurus and mark the birth anniversary of Ved Vyasa, one of the greatest ancient Hindu Gurus of all time and a symbol of Guru-Shisya tradition. Your Guru can be your teacher, your friend, your mother, your father or just a stranger.

My Guru, my late father Shri Virendra Krishna Aggarwal, who was a well known textile businessman and my pillar of strength through the difficult moments of my life, taught me the most important lesson of life which is my guiding light. He used to say “No matter how big a challenge is, if approached with proper calculations it can be resolved”. He showed me the importance of work-life balance and encouraged me to work in the Education and Employability sector despite coming from a business background. When I began my journey in the field of education, he quoted the words of Swami Vivekanand“Educate and raise the masses and thus alone a nation is possible. We want that education by which character is formed, strength of mind is increased, intellect is expanded and by which one can stand on one’s own feet”. Today in 2020, when I look through all these years, I want to thank him for making me what I am today, and hope that I have stood by the principles and vision he entrusted me with and passed the same to over 20,000 students trained at Panacea People, an education institution which I started in 2002 with the principles and vision of my father.

A guru is an epitome of a selfless individual who devotes his life for the future of his students. At Panacea,  I have witnessed that nothing satisfies a teacher more or makes him happier when he receives a thank you call from his students after they succeed in their life. Today, I’ld also take this occasion to thank my father, my teachers and all the seniors who have given my life a proper direction in all these past years. 

Therefore, on this auspicious day, let us take out time to thank our Gurus. Give them a call, whatsapp, a text message or include them in our prayers if they have left the Earth and joined the light of the moon, still guiding us from above, like my father. Let’s look at the moon tonight and remember our Gurus.
