The coral reefs that are formed by sea creatures spread out like creepers, but without leaves. A coral reef could be up to 1 foot high and an inch thick. There are numerous crevices that allow Isis to dwell.

The corals on the underwater rocks are cut into precise shapes mechanically to create high-quality gemstones. They are made of Calcium carbonate The corals change shades based on the color of the water in which they're located. The most commonly used colors are dark reds, saffron, white, and pink.

Top 3 Significance of Performing Shraadh Puja

27 de Setembro de 2021, 5:21, por Varun Shanbhag - 0sem comentários ainda

Shradh is a ritual that is held to honor and benefit family members who died. It is celebrated on set dates and also on occasions of mourning and celebrations. Each year, the Shradh ritual is celebrated to commemorate the death anniversary of someone during the Amavasya, also known as pitru Paksha. It is a tradition of the Hindu religion, which is also known as Mahalayapitru Paksha. It is observed at Purnima during the Ashwini month.

Now, lets discuss some of the benefits & significance of performing shraddh:

 

                                                      Shraadh

1) Helps soul to rest in peace

The belief is that Shradh on these days is a very auspicious time since what we do during these days has a direct impact on the dead. It aids the soul who has passed to rest peacefully. Shradh is done on Amavasya which is the final day in the month of lunar rebirth. 

2) Helps Attain Salvation

It is said that the Matsya Purana describes the shradh in terms of three kinds. The first type of shradh is which is daily performed, another is performed on a regular basis, and the third type is performed with a purpose (Kamya). In the rituals in North the region and East India, the shradh that is performed to honor the deceased ancestors is known in the form of Pitru Paksha Shradh. In Tamilnadu, it is known in the form of Aadi Amavasai, KarikadakaVavu Bali in the state of Kerala, and Amavasi in other states and regions. 

3) Ensures safety throughout their destination

Through studying the Upanishads as well as the Bhagavad Gita various pandits discuss the death journey of the dead as well as the ceremonies dedicated to them to ensure their safety on the way to their final destination. In the beginning, the Indian scriptures explain the entire significance of shradh by mentioning Agni Garuda, Matsya, and Vayu Puranas.

According to the Matsya Purana, Agni, Vasus (name of a major group in the world of Vedic gods), and Rudras that is the name for a Vedic storm god serve as intermediaries on the celebration of Pitru Paksha Shradh. These days, they are the Pandits who perform rituals and offer food to the ancestors. They are then blessed by the people who are carrying out the rituals. This happens because of the boon offered by Lord Yama God of death from Hindu Mythology.

Pitru Paksha Shradh can be given to ancestors whose dates of death are not remembered, or to those who suffer from fatalities such as murder or accidents. People who fail to complete barse or shradh every year (on the date of death) may also perform shradh with the assistance of pandits.

The Pitras

It is believed that many purohits explained the significance of Shradh which is the period of Shradh is the time that the pitras (ancestors) of our current and previous lives may come to and their descendants. In this time, the dead may feed on the life force energy of the living earth. The pitras, or ancestors, are afflicted by thirst, hunger as well as cold, heat, fatigue, and suffering as punishment for their prior karmic activities. In the search for relief from their suffering, their ancestors look by their descendants who are their karmic debtors.



Top 4 Consequences of Deforestation

31 de Agosto de 2021, 10:43, por Varun Shanbhag - 0sem comentários ainda

Deforestation has become a global issue as the demand for wood grows. Soil erosion, water cycle disruptions, greenhouse gas emissions, biodiversity loss, and climate change can all be caused by shrinking forests.

Below are the top 4 deforestation consequences :

1) Climate Imbalance and Climate Change

The climate is also affected by deforestation in many ways. Our planet's lungs are forests. The tropical rainforests are very humid because trees absorb carbon dioxide and then release oxygen and water vapor into the air.

Shade from trees helps to keep the soil moist. These are all compromised by the absence of trees. It leads to the imbalance in the atmospheric temperature, drier climate, further making conditions for the ecology difficult that leads to climate change. 

Many animals and plants that make up the fauna and flora of the world are very familiar with their natural environment. It would be very difficult for them, or their natural habitat, to survive in a forest clearing in a haphazard manner.

The humidity levels drop when a forest is felled, which causes the plants to dry out. Drying out tropical rainforests can increase fire damage, which causes rapid destruction of forests and damages to wild animals as well. 

Climate and forests are intrinsically linked. Our changing climate is both a cause of and a result of forest loss and degradation. Deforestation, however, is self-perpetuating.

These occurrences can be dangerous and encourage further deforestation. The loss of trees can also lead to flooding, soil erosion, and desertification that increase exponentially and occur faster.

 

2. Global Warming: Increase

Global warming can be controlled by trees. The trees absorb greenhouse gases, maintaining the atmosphere's balance. Constant deforestation has led to an increase in greenhouse gases, which is causing global warming.

 

3. Greenhouse Gas Emissions are on the Rise

Forests are a great way to reduce carbon dioxide and other harmful greenhouse gas emissions. They can also be used as carbon sources once they are cut, burned, or removed. Deforestation is thought to be responsible for roughly 20% of greenhouse gas emissions, with 1.5 billion tons of carbon released into the atmosphere each year owing to tropical deforestation.

 

4. soil erosion

Our local water cycles are also dependent on trees, which keep returning water vapor to our atmosphere. Rainwater percolates into the soil, retaining moisture. Many layers of trees create intricate root structures that hold the fertile soil in place. The ground is directly exposed to the sun now that the tree cover has been removed, making it dry.

Without trees, erosion is a common occurrence and often sweeps the land into nearby streams and rivers. Nature's water purifier plants are forests. The soil is exposed to contaminants that leach into the water supply. This can lead to soil erosion, which in turn damages our drinking water quality.
