Iraivan is full of kindness and love, doesn't know to punish. It is what we do that comes back to us Once a man called a passerby. He told him this "I am going to get a mail today", the passerby man was wondering whether it is true. Then a postman came and gave a letter to this man, the passerby got shocked and asked him how he knew that. The man replied that he only posted the mail to himself. So in a similar way, whether it is Good or Bad, it is what we do that comes back to us. Our ancestor's loan Once a man went to a hotel. He ate a small meal. The bearer came and gave a huge bill.

The Infinite Pillar of Fire The Story goes like this, Once upon a Time , there began a dispute between Maha Vishnu and Lord Brahma. So this dispute became so fierce. Noticing this, Shiva appeared there. And then he created a long Infinite Pillar of fire, which continues upwards infinitely and downwards infinitely, Shiva said, whoever finds the end of this pillar, is the greater one. So Maha Vishnu took form Of a Boar and started moving downwards, and Lord Brahma Took a swan and flew upwards..  They Searched for Years , but none of them could find the end of the Pillar. Lord Brahma got an idea, on his way down He meets a Ketaki Flower and somehow convinces it to be a False witness about the end of the pillar. on returning to the starting point , He saw Maha Vishnu and said to him that he found the end of the Pillar, Maha Vishnu was happy about this and he congratulated Lord Brahma. But the the Trikaalagyaani (The one who knows the past, present and future) appeared. He...

The Holy Incident I saw with my very own eyes My Pilgrimage to Holy Kanchipuram After reaching Kanchipuram to visit some temples. We hired an AutoRikshaw to Ukkal, Cheyyur District. It is around 18 KM from where we stayed at KanchiPuram. So when we reached there we asked everyone about this Ukkal Kamakshi Amman Temple, A holy Deity with a Nose ring. But nobody in the village guided us properly , But finally we ended up at a Very Big temple which was closed. It was the Vaidhya Natha swamy temple. So when we stood there, the temple Granny who was incharge of it , came there and opened the temple for us. It was such a blissful experience. Inside the GarbhaGruha stood a tall Shiva linga( Vaidya Nathar) . It was so peaceful there. After that, when we asked her about the Ukkal Kamakshi amman temple, she didnt know about it properly. But a small boy there said us there was a temple there at a distance which had a similar description, so we thanked them and Nandi ji and left from there...

Depending on the Soul Capacity of the person , He will be able to listen to the inner sounds of his body. Onc...

Is something in this world immortal? or does everything has a end or halt or atleast a pause? yes, there are a few things in this world which are immortal but has a pause. Gods live for a unimaginable high amount of years. So, whats the approximate value/ approximate age of Gods? I will tell you .  What does Shiv Puran has to say about Age of Gods?  There is a detailed explanation of the Age of all Gods in our vedas , puranas. It is very complicated .
