Meri Mohabbat...

Khwahish hai ki hamesha aapke saath rahe,
Kuch khatti kuch meethi baatein kare,
Duniya chahe jo bhi kahe,
Hum aapke saath hi mare!

Khuda ki Marzi...

Hum jo bhi sochte hai,
Woh sab nahi chalta,
Phir bhi jeete hai,
Zindagi nahi badaltha!

Dil se dimag thak,
Hai kayi aasha,
Uspe hamara hak,
Nahi tho nirasha!

Kabhi aankhon me paani aajathi hai,
Kabhi saansen ruk jaathi hai,
Jo kuch bhi hota hai,
Woh khuda ki marzi hoti hai!!

Nava Brindavan @ Erode


       Last week I had to attend my cousin brother's marriage at Erode. Since the Muhurtham was early, we decided to visit nearby temples. One of our relatives told us that there is a Nava Brindavan near Erode. So we got a bus to the center of the town, called kaalamadu (its near the erode railway station and there is a statue of a man with a bull, may be that is why it got its name) and got another bus to Vasantha Nagar where the Nava Brindavan is located. We reached the place in just 20 minutes by bus. It was a calm place away from the hustle bustle of the erode town. Situated on the banks of the river Cauvery, this place is where 9 rishis or swami jis attained their vaikunta praptham in their respective Brindavans. They have numbered the brindavans according to their period of living. The first brindavan is said to be of Sri Sri Lakshmipathy theertharu, who shares his period with Rayaru (Sri Sri Ragavendra Swamy).






        Shri Lakshmi Pathi Theertharu was a Vaidyar, who knew his end of life. Hence he had asked his disciples to prepare for his brindavan. The son of the sculptor who was appointed for such a blessed task, died at home due to snake's bite, when the sculptor was working with the brindavan. He couldn't stop his work neither could he continue with it. Swamy ji who knew his situation asked him to bring his son to the mutt. With the grace of God, swamy ji was able to return the sculptor's little son to life. As a token of gratitude, the sculptor has given the Dasavathara pictures embedded in the brindavan of swamy ji along with 5 headed snake (Kalinga) under the Dasavathara...





Shri Sudhi Nidhi Theertharu has done over 1000 Sudhas which has given him the name hence..

Un Ninaivugal...

Unnudan irukaiyil ulagathai marandhen,
Udal indri uyir vaazhnthen,
Urakkam indri ularinen,
Ullathil unarvugal udayamaayina - Un Ninaivugalai!!

Ishq..

Ishq karna aasan hai,
Par nibhana nahi!
Nibhana aata hai,
Tho ishq hi sahi!

Subah se raat tak,
Saath na rehkar bhi,
Na hona hai shak,
Tho ishq hi sahi!

Saath janmon se juda,
Yeh rishta hi nahi,
Agar ispe mar jaaye khuda,
Tho ishq hai wahi!

Kisi se door hona tho chalta hai,
Par unke yaadon se nahi,
Agar yaadon ko bhool nahi sakte,
Tho ishq hai wahi!

Say bubye to Dandruff the natural way..

Hi all,
    
         This time I am back with some useful fail-proof tips for a healthy, shiny, dandruff free hair by natural means! Guess you are smiling at this point. I can see your eyes gleaming with excitation..
 
Though I can say that I have invented this new process, actually I have modified the already existing one according to my hair texture. This tip worked out for me very well that I found my hair so soft, silky and shiny than before and that too without dandruff for a whole week!! That's saying something..

Let's see the process of eliminating the toughest enemy of your hair- The Dirty Dandruff!!

Tip I

Step 1: Mix equal parts of almond oil, coconut oil together in a vessel.
Step 2: Warm this mixture a little on the stove.
Step 3: Gently massage the warm mixture on the scalp with your fingers or cotton.
Step 4: Leave it on your hair  for 30-45 minutes before shampooing. Though overnight usage will give better results, I recommend 30 minutes for the first time user.
Step 5: Put a shower cap or a soft towel soaked in warm water around your head will enhance the soaking in of the oil into the pores of your scalp (I actually experienced this myself.. OMG! It was a feeling of warmth and bliss).
Step 6: Once you feel the warmth of the towel leaving your head, you can go for shampoo.
Step 7: Use a mild Shampoo without SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfates) I would recommend Himalaya Protein Mild Shampoo or Anti Dandruff Shampoo.
Step 8: Dilute the shampoo with warm water. For 1 spoon of shampoo, add 4 spoons of warm water.
Step 9: Gently massage the spots with the diluted shampoo where you feel the itching due to dandruff. Repeat the process until you feel relieved from the itching.
Step 10: Rinse off the shampoo from your hair with one spoon of lime juice mixed in warm water. Air dry your hair.

Tip II

Step 1: Mix equal parts of coconut oil and lime juice and warm it up for few seconds. Almond oil can be added if you wish.
Step 2: Massage it through your scalp and hair strands for 15 minutes, especially on the spots of itching.
Step 3: Leave the mixture on your head for 20-30 minutes
Step 4: Shampoo your hair with mild shampoo or shikakai or soap nut mixture.
Step 5: Rinse your hair with lime juice mixed with warm water.
