Two verses of Bhagavat Gita

IMHO, Dharma,artha, kama are wordly karmas and the Universal laws are Sathyam(sathyam bhoothahitham priyam) and Ahimsa(Ahimsa paramo Dharma) guiding these karmas, for its(Universe'/Nature/Prakriti's) self preservation. If you think deeply ,all these immutable laws including Laws of Karma are for its(Universe/prakriti) self adjusting and balancing and therefore for its preservation , survival and continuity.If these rules are violated in some instances ,then the self-balancing kicks in.These violation of eternal principles are Exceptions proving the Universal Rules of Sathyam and Ahimsa. But When Rakshas like people,do gross violation of these first principles,huge fight back by Dharma happens killing Hitlers to restore the Universal Balance for its survival , preservation and Continuity.This happens due to Bhagawan's sankalpa of Dharma rules, when he created this prakriti.-Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah- and bestowed these Rules to it.

Above is a kind of explanation to Bhagavat Gita sloka, Chapter 4 Verse 8

"paritranaya sadhunam vinashaya cha dushkritam

dharma-sansthapanarthaya sambhavami yuge yuge".

Another of Bhagavat Gita verse of Chapter 5 Verse 18 which reads:

vidya-vinaya-sampanne brahmane gavi hastini
shuni chaiva shva-pake cha panditah sama-darshinah

A Brahmin, Cow,Elephant,Dog,Dog-eater are all same and equal, if only we realise that He dwells in each and in all of them and He also says only the truly learned and humble who practises this can be called a Pandit.

This is another example ,IMHO, demonstrating unequivocally that Bhagawan has created all the creatures in this Universe on Equal footing and if we practise the Sama Darshinah as enunciated by Him, we become One with Him.

A Brahmin and a Dog-eater are on same pedestal!!- BG does not propagate anything to the contrary.It is only about practical,day-to-day Spirituality and the clarification based on Satyam and Ahimsa- Dharma- for common doubts encountered by all humans.

If this is not a statement of true Inclusivity and Universal Commonhood then what else can be called?

IMHO, this is the sum and substance of Shaswata ,Sarvodaya,Sanatana Dharma .

Hanuman and Ganesha!

The two major loved deities of the Hindu pantheon are Hanuman and Ganesha. Let us dwell into the concepts and significance of these two dieties. Ganesha, the son of Parvati and Shiv, is worshipped first before starting any new job or work. Even if you want to start writing or reading , you invoke the blessings of Lord Ganesha who goes under various names- Ganapathi, Vigneshwar, Vinayak, and Pillayar in Tamilnadu. Ganesha Gayathri, Pancharatnam are some of the important Ganesha mantras and hymns. Adi Ganesha idol is in a Temple near Tiruvarur in Tamilnadu with a human face.The mythological story says that Shiv slew His head and then fixed the head of the animal that He saw first after this beheading of His son.

He is considered the destroyer of evil in Japan. In Mexico, Ganesha idols were said to h...

State of the Indian Economy: Navigating Global Uncertainties

The global economic landscape is rapidly evolving, with trade policy uncertainty emerging as the key driver of the near-term outlook. Recent US tariff announcements have stoked fears of a global trade war, with countries still working out their appropriate responses in this uncertain environment. Despite these external headwinds, the Indian economy has exhibited marked resilience. Although the weakening global economic outlook could impact overall growth through weaker external demand, India's domestic growth engines - consumption and investment - are relatively less susceptible to external pressures. Prospects for the farm sector have been boosted by the forecast of an above normal southwest monsoon for 2025, which could augment farm incomes and keep food prices under check. Headline inflation moderated to a 67-month low of 3.3% in March, mainly due to moderation in food prices.
