 China has become part of a glorious cycle in which rapid economic growth is created, based on rapid upgrades to health, education, infrastructure and technology which are paid for through rapid growth of exports. This cycle of prosperity has caused  China to become rapidly wealthier; the income of the average Chinese citizen has steadily increased by an average of 8.5% every year since 1980 (meaning that their income has increased eight fold in just thirty years!) From 1980 to 2001, this rapid rise in income across China caused an estimated 400 million people to escape from extreme poverty in just 21 years.

THE PANCHA MAHA YAJNAS : Five Daily Sacrifices To Be Performed By Every Householder

Pancha maha yajnas There are five important daily sacrifices that Hindu religion commands everyone to perform . They are Brahma yajna - Sacrifice to Vedas or Rishis. Deva Yajna- Sacrifice to Devas and God. Pitru Yajna - Sacrifice to departed ancestors. Nru Yajna- Sacrifice to fellow -men. Bhuta Yajna - Sacrifice to creatures or brute creation. There is an outer aspect and inner meaning to each of these, teaching man his relations with all around him- his superiors, his equals and his subordinates.

अर्चिरादि मार्ग

प्राणियों केलिए वर्त्तमान शरीर को त्याग कर इस लोक से परलोक में जाने के, वेदों में  दो मार्ग बताये हाय हैं - एक देवयान और दूसरा पितृयान।  देवयान मार्ग शुक्ल और दीप्तिमय हैं तो , पितृयान कृष्ण और  अन्धकारमय हैं।  इसीका गीता में भी प्रतिपादन किया गया हैं :- शुक्लकृष्णे गती ह्येते जगतः शाश्वते मते । एकया यात्यनावृत्तिमन्ययावर्तते पुनः ॥ ८.२६ ॥ क्योंकि शुक्ल और कृष्ण – ये दोनों गतियाँ अनादिकालसे जगत् – (प्राणिमात्र) के साथ (सम्बन्ध रखनेवाली) मानी गयी हैं । इनमें से एक गति में जानेवाले को लौटना नहीं पड़ता और दूसरी गति में जानेवाले को पुनः लौटना पड़ता है । (८.२६) शुक्ल अधवा देवयान को अनावृत्ति ( मुक्ति) मार्ग और कृष्ण ( पितृयान )को पुनरावृत्ति मार्ग बताया गया हैं।  इस मुक्ति मार्ग को ही अर्चिरादि मार्ग कहते हैं।  अर्चि अग्नि को कहते हैं जो प्रकाश कारक हैं।  अर्चिरहः सितः पक्ष उत्तरायण वत्सरो। मरुद्रवीन्दवो विद्युद्वरुणेंद्र चतुर्मुखाः। । एते द्वादश धीराणां परधामा वाहिकाः। वैकुण्ठ प्रापिका विद्युद्वरुणा देस्त्वनुग्रहे।।   ब्रह्मज्ञानी मुक्त जन अर्चिरादि मार्ग द्वारा परमधाम जाते है

Shabarimala..-Swami Sharanam means ‘the only hope is Ayyappa.

Certain things in life are inherited from the traditions followed since ages without even they being written anywhere but passed on from generations to generations by following and practicing what is deemed right and religious ....Shabarimala Temple visit also not an exception.... Ayappa is celibate so that he can focus on answering the prayers of his devotees. And he will remain celibate till the day any malikappurathamas (first-time girl child devotees) stop coming to Sabarimala. So women aged between 10 and 50 (menstrual age) are not allowed in this shrine .As we know , all over India Hindu ladies during their menstruation period ,normally'll not visit any temple . Without a proper Vrutham it is a sacrilege to visit the temple or climb the Holy 18 Steps of Shabarimala (The 18 Steps cannot be climbed if you are not carrying an `Irumudi Kettu').A devotee aspiring for a darshan of Lord Ayyappan has to be pure both mentally and physically and for this, he is expected to observe
