Sins & Virtue    Virtue, a light that lifts us high, A quiet grace beneath the sky. It guards our path, our dreams, our fate, And keeps us steady, strong, and straight. Sins weigh us down with stress and strain, Leaving marks, a darkened stain. But virtue heals, so pure and bright, Like summer rain in morning light. So pause and ponder, choose what’s right— The road of virtue, clear and bright, Or tempting vice that may entice— The choice is yours: virtue or vice. For in each choice, our soul will sway, And in our steps, our fate will lay. In balance held, the heart shall see The power of choice to set it free. English-and-Hindi version:- Virtue and Sin:   Any action, thought, or behavior that goes against divine law is considered a sin, while any action, thought, or behavior that aligns with divine law is regarded as a virtue. Virtue and sin are fundamental concepts that have significantly influenced human morality, behavior, and spirituality throughout history. A vi...

Brahmin &  Sandhya The Brahmin stands, a sacred tree, Its roots enwrapped in mystery. The Sandhya, rooted firm below, Feeds life and strength that upward grow. From roots, the Vedic truths ascend, In branches spreading without end, And leaves, like duties we uphold, In ancient whispers, truths retold. Should Sandhya, source of life and prayer, Be left alone, deprived of care, The branches might still touch the skies, But soon would wither, fade, and die. Guard well the root, respect its place, Its quiet strength, its silent grace, For through its power, the branches rise, And leaves find purpose under skies. The renowned scriptures emphasize repeatedly. " विप्रो वृक्षस्तस्य मूलं च सन्ध्या वेदः शाखा धर्म कर्माणि पत्रम् | तस्मात्मूलं यत्नतो रक्षणीयं छिन्ने मूले नैव शाखा न पत्रम् ॥ ब्राह्मण एक वृक्ष के समान है। उसकी जड़ संध्या है , वेद उसकी शाखाएं हैं, और धर्मकार्य (सदाचार और धार्मिक कर्म) उसके पत्ते हैं। इसलिए, पूरी कोशिश करके उसकी जड़ की रक्षा करनी चाहिए, क्योंकि जड़ कट जाने पर...

The Brahmin:- With peaceful heart and mind serene, A Brahmin walks, unseen, unseen. In self-control, he finds his way, And darkness fades before the day. Austere in life, content in soul, In purity, he finds his role. No wealth of gold or pride of name— Just virtue’s light, a steady flame. With tolerance he greets the world, Where anger's storms may yet be hurled. Honesty his shining guide, A beacon clear, he cannot hide. In knowledge deep, in wisdom's grace, He journeys on, a sacred space. Devotion pure, a light divine, To realms unseen his heart aligns. So walks he forth, the noble one, A path aglow, till day is done. In gentle ways, he shows us all, How high the spirit yet can call. 🔯 ब्रह्म जानाति ब्राह्मणः इस वाक्य का अर्थ है: "जो ब्रह्म (सत्य, ज्ञान और परम तत्त्व) को जानता है, वही ब्राह्मण है।" शिशुम् जज्ञानम् हर्य तम् मृजन्ति शुम्भन्ति वहिन  मरूतः गणेन। कविर्गीर्भि काव्येना कविर् सन्त् सोमः  पवित्रम् अत्येति रेभन्। ऋग्वेद मण्डल 9, सूक्त 96, मंत्र 17 In the Up...
