SHIVA

Shiva is said to be the destroyer.But for me Shiva is the ultimate.I believe in Lord Shiva like I believe myself or even more.I sometimes feel as though I am talking to Shiva ,as whenever I am alone and in need I can count on Lord Shiva to come to my aid.My parents too believed in him may be that is the reason I am attached to Shiva since my childhood.
Lord Shiva is the ultimate truth.He is also said to be Bhola meaning very innocent, he gets angry very fast and cools faster,just like an innocent child.When we chant his name- OM NAMAH SHIVAYA, OM NAMAH SHIVAYA,You feel on top of your world.Try it yourself and feel the difference in you.Confidence,trust ,health ,wealth all will be your permanent companions. If you still do not trust me your luck but Siva is the ultimate that truth remains.OM NAMAH SHIVAYA.

miss u

TOGO--------- my dog, I miss him. He is no more. When he was just 4 days old my dad brought him home. That was the day when I realised what parents do for us as I was told to take care of Togo. My God ! he came to my nerves,running here and there ,under the sofa, below the cupboard,inside the washroom, dirting where ever he felt like.I was like is he come home for me or I am here to be his slave? Mom explained to me that everything has its own price to pay,like if I wanted to play with Togo I was supposed to take care of him ,teach him manners , keep him clean etc. I understood that nothing was easy for me after that, but Togo was a wonderful dog. He understood very easily and implimented as told. Good for me. He grew up as I did too.Fifeteen long years passed and my little pomarian was old. He loved icecream ,peas etc that usually dogs don't like. He attended my wedding. He also stayed a few days at my house (in laws) with all manners taught by me.
TOGO gone fore ever. Mom called me one day that he was ill and she was giving him icecream as doc said he may leave us forever. I rushed to my parents place but I was late , he had gone. God bless his soul.

trip to balaji

It was 2005 May vaccation . My family and me had been to Tirupati Balaji. It is a place in India where Lord Balaji is said to recite. Here you can go empty handed and come back with all you have wished for. Lord Balaji sits on top at Tirumala. For Darshan of shree Balaji we need to take time bands, so that there is no hassle ,everyone can get Darshan of the Devine Lord .There is free Darshan too.We took the bands and anciously waited for the time to come ,when we could get our Balaji's Darshan. Our time stated on bands was evening 6pm. We entered in the Q. But to our surprise the Q was sooooo v big that it seemed will never end. We were as it is very ancious to see Lord that we did not mind the line.

Here if I have to stand for ten minutes I grumble of legs paining ,but would you believe we stood for nine hours to get Darshan . But you need to believe me after you see Lord Balaji you tend to forget all your pains, problems ,worries. you know in your heart that someone is there to take care of your problems,they are no more your problems. Same was the feeling I was going through,I wanted to know if my family felt the same .Yes we all felt the same.

My cousin had never been to Tirumala. He had financial prblems. Once his friend was going for Darshan of shree Balaji. His friend offered him to and fro expence and he willingly agreed to go.He went there ,did Darshan, offered his hair and came back.Unaware that Shree Balaji has planned something else for him. Today he offers his other friends if they needed money.He is thankful to the friend who took him.This has happened in front of me.

I personally believe in Lord Balaji,if I get stuck up with something I only need to chant his name JAI BALAJI and there all is set. If you want to experience something to believe it you need to come to India at Tirupati. May shree Balaji bless all those who read this . JAI BALAJI.

ashapura ma

Ashapura,is the name given to goddess in kutch.She is said to be rani of kutch .HER temple is at Mhad,in kutch-gujrat,better known as matano mhad (mother's home).People visit this holy place in thousands and lakhs.Mata is said to fulfill all our wishes,she is said to be the destroyerof evil and fulfiller of grants.I have visited matano mhad more than 15 times ,but still believe me its a worth visiting once more.All of you visiting India ,its a must go here.The devine idol of shree Ashapura ma is huge orange in colour of sindoor.Every evening and morning there is aarti ,which should not be missed.
There are many miracles here you cannot deny to believe as they happen to you .In my childhood I had been there with my parents,WE were asked by the pujari (brahmin) that will we take prasad (lunch/dinner served to all devotees coming to matano mhad ) at mhad and then leave? We in our own calculations to visit other places refused to take prasad and left.We lost our way,after three hours we prayed to Ashapura ma that please show us the way back to her mhad we wish to take prasad,there in no time our car stood in front of her temple.This was no co incident as many of our friends have experienced this too.
Last year I had gone to mhad with my family.Years gone by but Ma is same.My twelve year son refused to take prasad as he was willing to eat at the hotel at bhuj in which we stayed.I had completely forgotten the incident of my childhood,that is why I accepted his wish to eat at the hotel instead of at mhad.To our suprise when we came out to leave ,all of our family footwear was at the enterence except my son's new shoes.He screamed that only his shoes were missing.There was a flash in my mind as to he was the only one to refuse the prasad. I asked him to say sorry to Ma and then we could leave.Outside the temple there are lots of shops of devotional iteams ,that made clear there was no shoe shop there.My son appologised to the goddess and bare footed came till the car.All of a sudden a shopkepper said he had few slippers with him that had come by mistake in delivery.We were overjoyed as to my son will not have to go bare footed.He got his footware and a good lesson.I remembered my childhood days.What would you call this? a co incident ?
Matano Mhad is about ninety five km from bhuj.All the four sides are covered with mountains and valleys.There is guest house facility,food is servsd twice daily to all who visit mhad.(food is never less or finished for devotees who visit ma's temple,it may be as many people).JAI ASHAPURA MA.

my angel my mom

The letter M makes MOTHER from other.Mother is a word that needs no explanation,mothers do all that others do not.GOD is said to be everywhere,but it was not possible for GOD to be everywhere so he created a substitute for him,yes you have guessed it right,it was mother.you call her mom, mummy,ma,or by her name,she is always yours.whenever you want someone to talk to or even need a punching bag to throw all your emotions ,mom is ready,smiling.
I am lucky as well as unlucky as I had a lovely mom ,but GOD needed her too,so he is the ultimate to decide ,he decided ,that my mom had to be with him.GOD knew I would be sad and also would miss her so he compensated by making me a mom too.But can a compensation compare to the loss?I love my son as my mom loved me,but still I miss my mom.She was the pillar of strength for me.I usually told her I loved dad more than her ,she always smiled and said be happy enjoy,till I am alive,once mother is gone all is gone.I never took her lines seriously,jokingly told her that she said this as I had told her I loved dad more than her.Today when she has passed away,I missssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss------- her a lot.NO ONE can take her place.I am a wife,mother,daughter in law but mom has a special place in my life.Today when I look back in past I feel on the top of my world ,I have spend my childhood days with the angel sent by God to me.Thanx God.

HOPE

LIFE is what we make of it. If we have good expierences we say our life is the best or else
vise a versa. Life is a term that is hard to define,but still it has many adverbs added to it,
like---- good, bad, boring, lively, cool, tremendes, heavy, light, etc.For me life is what I feel
about myself. For eg-- I like to do things that are difficult for me ,but when I sometimes cannot do them I try harder. Like everyother thing life too has good and bad side,like the whiteside and the blackside. So from today try to look at both the sides of your life ,never
ever get disoppointed after only experiencing the bad side,wait for the wheel of fortune
to turn and you face the good side. It is a saying that darker the night ,brighter the day.
GOOD LUCK.
