Faith Religion Spirituality Truth and Hinduism

Belief: To trust in something without proof.

Faith: 
Belief that...
....death is not the end,
.....there is more to life than fulfilment of desires
.....there is a supreme being

Adhyatm :
The journey of spiritual evolution that initiates with faith and ends at realization of the truth. Its mostly unorganized and no set rules, codes or manuals ,rituals.

Religion:
Is the institution , an organization that builds itself around the above faith, sets itself in the de jure properitorship of the faith.
Issues instructions and sets rituals, authorizes it's officers as sole authorities to govern faith. Religions sometimes become a nation state of faith.

Religion is understood to have come from the latin word Re-ligare ,the word ''ligare'' meaning "to bind".

The presently prevalent recognized religions can be categorized in two groups:
1. Abrahamic Religions: Judaism, Christianity & Islam.
2. Dharmic Religions: Hinduism, Buddhism. However both are inseparable and not mutually exclusive.

Mostly religion if taken more seriously prohibits spiritual growth and delays realization. Sometimes puts one back on his journey also.

Also, Religion is mostly a concept of Mid East Asia, with the major religions having roots in ME and having following common elements or concepts of:
Singularity of faith- 1 book, 1 prophet type, all other faiths considered false and satanic
Believer/Non believer
Saved/doomed
Heaven/Hell for believer/Non believer
Crusade
Conversion
Objective of Global Domination

Due to the above religions have been probably the worst catastrophe to humanity.

Hinduism:
Hinduism is a mist complex subject, however to proceed systematically:
1. There is no Hinduism or Hindu religion. In fact there is no word "Hindu" of Indian origin. Hindu/Hind words were used by Persians and Greeks for the land beyond Indus river and the people who lived there. Hence the word Hind,Hindu,India,Indian are synonymous and a geographical identity, eg Hindukush, Hind mahasagar , Hindustan
2. There is no concept of "Religion " in India as such as well. The above mentioned features of "Religion" have been alien to Indian Philosophy . That's why there is not even a word for religion in any Indian Language. The word Dharma used for Religion simply means "duty" or model conduct.
3. What "Hindus" today have is neither faith ,spirituality or religion but a complex combination of all of these with faith in biggest proportion, spirituality the guiding principle and instutionalization or religious infrastructure the weakest and smallest component.

RHR (Resting Heart Rate): The Oracle of our health!

Friends we all know how the biggest problem with serious health issues is that mostly we only come to know about them when its already too late, ie when suddenly health deteriorates and the disease is already in advanced stage and then things take a dive for us.

Fortunately there are ways to plot our future health issues from our present health condition to a great extent by analysing the relevant vital stat and take corrective remedial action accordingly.

As per many researches like this study in Copenhagen (

http://heart.bmj.com/content/99/12/882.full?sid=90e3623c-1250-4b94-928c-0a8f95c5b36b)

The resting heart rate is perhaps the most accurate parameter to indicate diseases in developing stage inside our bodies.

However, it is peehaps also the most under rated vital stat.

Another report shows those who had a high-normal resting heart rate of 80 to 99 beats per minute (bpm) had a 40% shorter lifespan than those with a desirable heart rate of 60 to 69 bpm. 

However, also reported is that "15 to 30 minutes of daily moderate exercise (such as brisk walking) could eliminate the increased mortality and reverse this life-span loss,"

Resting heart rate (or pulse rate) shows the status of oxygen demand-supply mechanism inside our body and a deviation in this indicates underlying problems (Abnormal demand or restricted supply) in Pulmonary system,respiratory system or unhealthy lifestyle etc and this can give birth to a 100 problems and diseases in medium and long term.

How to measure RHR?

Sit down or lay down for 3-4 minutes amd then Count ur pulse by yourslef or use a pulse oxymeter. Nowadays mobiles also act as oxymeter by downloading such apps, with fare accuracy.

What does the following signify for an adult:

Resting HR<70 Low stress, Overall good health

Resting HR : 70-80 , Possible dehydration, beginning of issues related to cholesterol, heart, breathing, blood pressure etc.

Resting HR: 80-90 Not good . Detailed health check up needed urgently.

Pregnancy: 80-90 is normal due to high oxygen demand by both bodies (mother and child)

How to ensure good health by RHR management?

#Monitor our RHR regularly,

#Even if sugar,BP etc are good the RHR should be also be kept in healthier side.

#If RHR very high, see doctor

#Do Yoga, sleep good ,drink sufficient water, Meditation very very helpful, positive thinking, balanced diet.

A very fair universe!

The Universe is very fair!

It gave us all, irrespective of wealth,race,color,creed same treasures for free:

*Same Earthsuit,ie our Body, which needs Little to survive- some food,water and air.

*Same sensory pleasures of same magnitudes.

* Same happy moments- such as Laughter,love,friendship,..

*Same sad moments- Tears,breakups,sorrow,remorse....

&
finally death is the greatest equalizer.

After passing away we all r just non segregable particles of dust  .

Living a great life is...

...living one day at a time!

Wealthy?

Being wealthy is not about leaving how much behind,
But
Using how much for well being of self and others!

What we can control & what we can't!

We have little control on what happens with us, but full control over how we take them.

We have little control over  what talents we have but full control over how, how much and where we use them.

We have no control over our mortality but full control over how we spend our short vacation on planet Earth .

Milk: The Amrit on Earth!

Dear friends,

When a friend told me about his sorrow that his 6 months old son could not see and the optic nerve had not developed.

This set me thinking and next day I asked him whether the child had been getting mother’s milk.

He told me that mother’s milk had stopped within a few days and the Doctor at his place, Durgapur, advised to switch to Lactogen.

This seems to have been a grave mistake.

 Milk, especially mother’s, is not just a health supplement or a food.

As per the latest researches Milk is a highly specialized, complex nutrient system developed by mammalian evolution to promote postnatal growth. In contrast to feeding artificial infant formula, only human milk allows appropriate metabolic programming and protects against diseases of civilization in later life.

Also the mother’s milk serves as a genetic transfection system or in other words a genetic supplement also as being found out by researches

(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3725179/#B1 )

 

Mother’s milk by itself is the complete growth and development package for the infant. No artificial supplement(s) can even dream to come close.

 For adults also the milk is the best health supplement for vitamins, minerals, amino acids etc. Also a good source of Oxytocin.

In old days our ancestors could not get fortified health drink or access to medical facility yet Milk was good source of good health for them.

However milk should be taken at room temperature or cold as hot milk is less amenable to digestion.

In case of lactating mothers their nutrition is also paramount and should be taken well care of.

Unfortunately, Good quality milk availability is an issue. Even Packets and tetra packs fall short in quality. If we can get good milk from any dairy we should take it any cost.
