 The occasion of Shravani Upaakarm is generally celebrated in the month of August. There is a synonymous celebration called Raksha Bandhan that is also celebrated at this time. This article is meant to define, distinguish and add clarity between these two occasions. Among the many mythological legends of Hinduism, we learned from Nirnai-Sindhu of one such occasion where the control of the heavenly regions was won in a battle between the Asuras and the Devatas. Lord Indra, as the lord of the heavens sought advice and counsel from his preceptor, Brihaspati.

 For Hinduism survive and continue to thrive in Canada for generations to come, there needs to be a renassaince of Hinduism among todays youth. The Devi Mandir is special in that the youth movement arising out of the Mandir entitled "DM Youth" has been around for 2 years and has paved the path for other youth groups to follow suit.

 Deities are only one but important aspect of Hinduism. Deities have a symbolic purpose in Hinduism but one can go without them or go beyond them. All deities are equal. Deities are only a creation of mind, and it is necessary to look beyond the processes of creation and destruction. Therefore, realization of absolute truth is possible only thru the route of Meditation. Spirituality or Hinduism is capable to lead us to that stage, which is definitely beyond the scope of mind. Mind is again a creation only therefore prone to decay & destruction. |
