Why this Endeavour?
All machines come with manuals, we read the manuals before we operate them. However, this complex machine called ‘human’ is used without any guidance. The scriptures are the ‘Manuals for Humans’. The sooner we ‘Understand’ them, the better the type of life we will lead and better directed our pursuits will be.
We are sitting on a store house of rich scriptures. The wisdoms that abides in them is immense. However, most of the time this precious knowledge is kept covered in an orange cloth, in a sacred corner and removed occasionally for chants and obeisance.
The effort here is to make these a daily read for us. We should be able to pick up any scripture, Just like one effortlessly picks up a novel, magazine, newspaper, etc. any time, anywhere, read, interpret and experience it.
As one of the saints once said,
How long are you going to read other people’s experience?
When will you experience it yourself?
There can be multiple interpretations. Delve deeper into your very being and after that constant musing, what is it that you feel this reveals?

"Mere Prabu Ram" showcases the lesser known stories of Ramayan. There are many versions of the great epic and so we have several incidents that come as a surprise, or as a justification to Ram's choices. At a time when "Jai Shri Ram" has become a war cry, this podcast highlights the values of love, sacrifice, and humility of Ram and other characters.
Geeta Girl simplifies Lord Krishna’s advice in the Bhagavad Geeta and helps us learn how and when to use this advice, in order to handle our challenges with greater wisdom and success. We will discuss everyday issues, how to apply the Bhagavad Geeta’s advice, and how we can make choices for maximum benefits to our lives.
Aarti (आरती) is a devotional song sung to show devotion towards a deity and to Glorify a deity. Aarti is sung during Ritual of Aarti, in which flame is offered to deity. Aarti is a Hindi word and it is also spelled Arti, Arati or Arathi. The word Aarti is derived from the Sanskrit word Aratrika (आरात्रिक), which means something that removes darkness. शास्त्रों में बताया गया है कि आरती शब्द संस्कृत के आर्तिका शब्द से बना है। जिसका अर्थ है, अरिष्ट, विपत्ति, आपत्ति, कष्ट और क्लेश। भगवान की आरती को नीराजन भी कहा जाता है। नीराजन का अर्थ है किसी स्थान को विशेष रूप से प्रकाशित करना। शास्त्रों में बताए गए नियमों के अनुसार, आरती के इन्हीं दो अर्थों के आधार पर भगवान की आरती करने के दो कारण बताए गए हैं।
