Nityas of Kali 🌺

In Hinduism, the moon is a deity. The waxing and waning phases of the moon are associated with Nitya Deities of 2 main Goddesses :
1. Sri Mata Lalita Devi
2. Sri Kalika Devi

Ma Kali has 15 Nitya Devis who are associated with the waning phases of the moon 🧵👇

I find a very disturbing trend among doctors in Lucknow (don’t know about other cities) that has been normalised for years.
When you go for consultations, there are many patients already sitting in the room, waiting for their turn. When they talk to one patient about their case, everyone is listening in, and their most private details are public for everyone to hear.
This is a violation of basic courtesy. Doctors, please urgently reconsider this. Please do not do this. I am sitting right now in a doctor’s clinic for my daughter and cringing while I have to hear the personal details of every patient while we wait.

🐾 DO ANIMALS KEEP FINDING YOU? THERE MAY BE A KARMIC REASON. 🐾

Nadi Astrology associates animals with the 6th House, the house of debts (Rina), service, and karmic obligations.

The belief?

Sometimes a rescued animal is not a coincidence…

It may be a soul with whom you share an unfinished karmic account from a previous birth.

🔍 DIY CHECK YOUR CHART:

1️⃣ Is your 6th House Lord connected to the Lagna Lord?
(conjunction, aspect, exchange, or star connection)

👉 Your life’s path may involve repaying karmic debts through service, including care for animals.

2️⃣ Is your 6th House Lord connected to the Moon?
(conjunction, aspect, exchange, or star connection)

👉 You may feel emotionally responsible for suffering animals and find it impossible to ignore them.

3️⃣ Are Rahu, Ketu, Saturn, or Moon influencing the 6th House or its Lord?

👉 Unexpected encounters with strays, rescue situations, or deep attachments to animals can become recurring themes.

4️⃣ Do major planetary periods activate your 6th House, 6th Lord, or related planets?

👉 Animals may suddenly enter your life during these periods.

Now ask yourself:

✅ Do stray animals trust you unusually fast?
✅ Have you rescued animals “by accident” more than once?
✅ Does caring for them feel more like a duty than a choice?
✅ Have you ever felt a bond with an animal that seemed impossible to explain?

According to Nadi traditions, this may be Runanubandhana ..

A karmic debt being settled not through money…

But through food, shelter, protection, and love. ❤️🐾

Sometimes the animal is not entering your life because it needs you.

It may be entering because your souls have met before

[Hemaram @AghoraVaktra]

In the ordinary world, effort alone doesn’t guarantee success. Years of hard work can be lost in an instant. Wealth can vanish, achievements can fade, and even cherished accomplishments can be forgotten. However, spiritual practice operates on a different principle, as if there were a separate folder on a universal hard drive dedicated solely to it. This folder is called Buddhi (the discerning intellect).

It’s an immovable inner sense organ that cannot be deleted, erased, formatted, or even copied by anyone else. It stores all the maturity you've attained on the spiritual path, from birth to birth.

As Lord Krishna gives a comforting and encouraging assurance in the Bhagavad Gītā:

नेहाभिक्रमनाशोऽस्ति प्रत्यवायो न विद्यते ।
स्वल्पमप्यस्य धर्मस्य त्रायते महतो भयात् ॥

"On this path (Buddhi-yoga), no effort is ever lost, nor does it produce any adverse result. Even a little practice of this dharma protects one from great fear."

But how does Buddhi carry the data of our spiritual practices of past births?

Just like it carries all other data called Saṁskaras, the subtle impressions (Vasanā) on individual consciousness from the previous birth. This phenomenon unfolds like all other events related to Prarabdha karma in one’s life. Prarabdha is that portion of your accumulated past-life actions (Sanchita Karma) that is actively unfolding in your current life.

But first, let’s address a common confusion regarding the cycle of birth and death. If Ātman (the Self) is immovable, eternal, and the supreme truth that doesn’t undergo any change, then who goes through the repeated cycle of birth and death?”

Ātmā—the individual being (Jīva)! Technically, it is also known as Puryāṣṭaka.

Puryāṣṭaka literally translates to “the city comprising eight,” which represents the transmigratory individual soul, individuality, or the subtle body (sūkṣma-śarīra), which is composed of five subtle tanmātrās, and three inner sense organs: the mind (manas), intellect (buddhi), and ego (ahaṅkāra).

The five tanmātrās are responsible for storing subtle impressions of Shabda (sound), Sparsha (touch), Roopa (form/vision), Rasa (taste), and Gandha (smell) as Vāsnā—residual impressions of experiences. These impressions are evaluated, judged, determined, and distinguished between truth and error, right and wrong, permanent and impermanent by Buddhi—the faculty of intelligence, discernment, and decisive knowledge.

Whatever spiritual practices one engages in, with the love and longing for the divine, whether it’s worship, japa, meditation, rituals, homam, or self-reflective study of scriptures, the outcome is not always immediately apparent or accompanied by a dramatic event in one’s life. Instead, it unfolds gradually through the purification of the inner sense organs, particularly the mind and ego. As Buddhi witnesses this purification, it also undergoes purification and accumulates subtle impressions of the sadhana on the individual consciousness of Jīva.

As Svacchanda Tantram reveals, when these impressions mature, then the “One who has not performed rituals in this lifetime, yet, due to the maturity of impressions from past lives, naturally and effortlessly remembers a specific deity. This remembrance associated with that deity is called bhāva-āṁsha.”

Bhāva-āṁsha refers to the portion, part, or fragment (āṁsha) of past practices or the deity’s state of being (bhava) that gets imprinted on an individual’s consciousness due to those practices. Like other strong imprints (vāsanās), bhāva-āṁsha unfolds as a defining spiritual event in an individual’s life, potentially transforming an unassuming person into a deeply spiritual individual. It manifests in various forms, such as longing, devotion, or even leading someone to renounce worldly life in search of something beyond their current existence.

This manifests as a sudden and unchangeable remembrance of Ishta Devtā, even amidst confusion and hardships. It’s as if something has been imprinted in your soul. Until your Ishta directs or guides you towards a higher path, He or She will not leave your side. Moreover, in many instances, Ishta may also reveal that they are not merely a deity but an embodiment of the ultimate truth alone, as in the case of Bhagwan Ramakrishna Paramahamsa:— "The Divine Mother revealed to me in the Kāli temple that it was She who had become everything. She showed me that everything was full of Consciousness. The image was Consciousness, the altar was Consciousness, the water-vessels were Consciousness, the door-sill was Consciousness, the marble floor was Consciousness - all was Consciousness."

When an individual is driven by bhāva-āṁsha and engages, immerses or puts efforts again in practices like japa, meditation, or yoga, it is referred to as svabhāva-āṁsha. This represents the portion of the ‘innate disposition’ of the deity or principle that the individual has been worshipping or striving towards since past lives. Eventually, Svabhāva-āṁsha unfolds as a higher mystical experience, siddhi, or even dualistic liberation. “Dualistic,” because this longing does not imply self-recognition; rather, it signifies efforts towards attaining something that is already not there in individual consciousness. This phenomenon is not limited to Tantra only:

“One who possesses the āṁsha of Brahmā is devoted to the Vedas.

Now hear from me the characteristics of one who possesses the āṁsha of Rudra. One possessing the āṁshaof Rudra is devoted to Rudra, virtuous in conduct, and always engaged in the teachings and scriptures of Śiva.

One possessing the āṁsha of Viṣṇu is devoted to Viṣṇu, while one possessing the āṁsha of the Moon is pleasant and attractive in appearance.

One possessing the āṁsha of a Yakṣa is devoted to all the gods, peaceful, and inclined toward the accumulation of wealth.

One possessing the āṁsha of Vāyu (Wind) is known to be restless and fickle and SO ON…..”

Both Bhāva-āṁsha and Svabhāva-āṁsha are considered inferior forms of Śaktipāta by Abhinavagupta, as they can only grant dualistic liberation. This dualistic liberation encompasses four types: Sālokya, Sāmīpya, Sārūpya, and Sāyujya. These experiences do not dissolve individuality, even after death, but instead lead to Jīva in higher realms. Consequently, in Trika Śaiva, these dualistic experiences of liberation are regarded as Siddhis (supernatural powers).

However, it’s important to note that they also possess the potential for the higher form of Śaktipāta or non-dual liberation.

Here is an astonishing statement from the Svacchanda Tantram, regarding this:

भैरवाङ्गसमालब्धाः सर्वे देवा वरानने ।
भैरवास्तु स्मृताः सर्वे सर्वसिद्धिफलप्रदाः ।।
"O beautiful-faced Goddess! When all these deities attain the body of Bhairava, then all of them are understood to be forms of Bhairava Himself, capable of granting every siddhi and all desired attainments."

Technically, the statement refers to the nishkal mantra of Bhairava, which is devoid of any specific form. However, it also suggests a profound contemplative state of immersion, where the individual identifies with the deity, So'ham—"I AM THAT."

Tell a doctor jokingly that you want your kids to study medicine - and they'll say NO PLEASE DON'T!

This field seems to be one of the most toxic spaces ever and we expect Doctors to come out and be polite, kind and patient to people who visit the hospital.

Also - this field is the one with so many cases of sexual abuse harassment and assault that gets covered up due to the power structure.

You may not know this woman, but she has known Mamata Banerjee—and her misdeeds—intimately since childhood.She possesses a wealth of shocking information.

Following Mamata's electoral defeat, one scandal after another is coming to light. From schools to colleges and universities, the guise of education was merely a cover for prostituition.

The revelation she has just made is deeply distressing and shocking.
She claims that whenever twins were born in state hospitals, the staff would report the birth of only one child, claiming the other had died.
Subsequently, the surviving infant would be sold elsewhere for lakhs of rupees.

Even if a death actually occurred, the body would be detained as long as possible—using pretexts like post-mortems—to harvest organs such as eyes, teeth, and kidneys.

The decomposing body would then be wrapped in cloth and handed over to the family. As for unclaimed bodies? Well, the less said about them, the better.

After all, the vessels of sin is bound to shatter once it overflows.

The 1967 diplomatic horror that Congress erased from history.

When China falsely accused young Indian diplomats K. Raghunath and P. Vijay of spying over a simple photo, they were dragged by their necks, stripped, and brutally beaten by a mob of Red Guards on a Beijing runway.

Red Guards beat and kicked two Indian diplomats in wild scenes at Peking airport to-day before they left by air for Hongkong after being expelled from China accused of spying.

The Second Secretary Mr Krishnan Raghunath and the Third Secretary, Mr. P. Vijay were dragged and pushed, held by the neck and arms among a crowd of Red Guards several hundred strong.

They were punched and kicked and Red Guards waved red books of Mao Tse-tung’s quotations at them. Other Indian diplomats were hit and Third Secretary,

C.V. Ranganathan was made to bow his head by the crowd who tried to force him to kneel on the runway.

Embassy staff who tried to go to the aid of the two expelled, diplomats were manhandled and kept away.

The response from the ruling Congress government? Utter paralysis. Prime Minister Indira Gandhi openly admitted in Parliament that it was “not possible… to outline the steps the government might take.”

From the complete surrender of 1967 to the 2008 secret MoU signed with the Chinese Communist Party with Rahul Gandhi right at the table the paper trail of appeasement is clear.

Remember that climax scene from Special 26, where Akshay Kumar invites candidates for an interview for post of CBI officers, recruits them. And then conducts a raid on a jewellry store with them.

It was based on a real incident that happened on March 19, 1987 at Opera House Branch of Mumbai's most famous jewellry outlet,Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri & Sons.

Person posing as Mohan Singh placed a classified in 17 March 1987 issue of TOI, asking "Dynamic Candidates for Intelligence Officers Post and Security Officers Post" to report at hotel Taj Intercontinental between 10 am and 5 pm the next day.

He selected 26 candidates, and briefed them about the mock raid. Singh introducing himself to the owner Pratap Zaveri, produced a search warrant. He along with the fake CBI team, did not allow any phone calls,ok samples of ornaments for assessment of the quality of the gold. Singh picked 'samples' of jewellery and had them sealed in polybags.

The person decamped with the loot and has never been found again.

Italy is also a democracy like India. Millions don't like and didn't vote PM Meloni in Italy.

Yet, when Trump recently made a silly remark about Meloni "begging to take pics with him", the whole country, including opposition, have stood behind her.

Nobody is mocking her using Trump's comments. Nobody is saying she has made Italy look weak. None in Italy is taking the side of Trump mocking their PM for some silly political gratification.

Perhaps you can begin by acquainting yourself with the history of northern India: one of invasions, marauders, and prolonged violence, and what it did to people’s lives and beliefs.

In hidden nooks, in quiet corners and the safety of our homes, we kept our faith alive.

You might then grasp the inconvenient truth: despite all of it, a culture and civilisation refused to be erased or decimated.

So your point about Hinduism being “extremely pleasant, prim and proper” in South India…

No, we didn’t have that luxury.

My top 5 horror stories :-

1. Seeing polyester tops from Savana and similar brands selling for ₹1,500–₹2,000.

2. Watching people abandon beautiful Indian heirloom textiles and designs because they think they're "too expensive," but then happily spend the same amount on polyester.

3. Seeing international luxury brands use jhumkas, Kolhapuri chappals, and Indian craftsmanship without giving proper credit.

4. Forest Essentials getting acquired by an international company. (I'm convinced they're not going to give India the credit it deserves.)

5. Looking at recipes that are clearly khichdi, tikki, or other Indian dishes being renamed as "lentil soup," "vegan patties," or some other exoticized version.

Thank you for attending my horror story session.
