The Concept of Punishment in Hinduism

 Hello Everyone !!! Daṇḍa is the Hindu term for punishment. In ancient India, punishments were generally sanctioned by the ruler, but other legal officials could also play a part. The punishments that were handed out were in response to criminal activity. In the Hindu law tradition, there is a counterpart to daṇḍa which is prāyaścitta , or atonement.  Where as daṇḍa is sanctioned primarily by the king, prāyaścitta is taken up by a person upon his or her own volition. Furthermore, daṇḍa provides a way for an offender to right any violations of dharma that he or she may have committed. In essence, daṇḍa functions as the ruler's tool to protect the system of life stages and castes.  Daṇḍa makes up a part of vyavahāra , or legal procedure, which was also a responsibility afforded to the king. According to Danda-viveka   text of Vardhaman, there are 11 factors affecting the severity of punishment. The 4 Types of Punishment : ( Manava Dharmashastra, Manu ) 1. Admonition...

Magic, Sorcery and Mind Control-- The Difference (by Enoch Tan)

 Hello Everyone !!!  Generally we see there is a thin line between what is Sorcery, magic, Alchemy, Shamanism etc. But, there is a significant difference between them which is noticeable.  Magic : The Science and Art of influencing change in accordance with the Higher Will. It is about non-dualism. Sorcery : The Science and Art of influencing change in accordance with lower Egoistic will. The goal of a sorcerer is to create internal and external opposition. Mind control through manipulation and propagation of illusion is main tool of Sorcery. Alchemy : It is about transmuting base consciousness into higher moral level of consciousness. Things at micro and quantum level happen faster, whereas things at a macro-level take a longer time to see effects happen. Thanks for Reading !!!

Power Thinking (by Dr. U. Patni) [2012]

Hello Everyone !!! The 14 Laws : 1. Unless extremely essential, do not give unsolicited advice. 2. Unless the situation demands, never try to score a point in a verbal duel and that too in the presence of others. 3. Talking less is more powerful than talking more. 4. Speak only till you are being listened. 5. Talking too much undermines our importance. 6. When we remain silent during a discussion, others are always in doubt-- either they consider us very learned or ignorant. So it is wiser to be silent if not well-versed with the topic. 7. We can never win the hearts of people if we talk unpleasantly, criticize others, hurt them or try to show them down. 8. Do not be hasty to reveal everything that you know. The other person may not be interested in listening to you. 9. Always have a reason to speak and 99% of them should be on a positive note. 10. An intelligent speaker is one who can influence the outcome of a discussion without others even realizing it.       ...
