Religion – Happy Easter 2016!

March 27, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

From crucifixion to resurrection the message to humanity on the significance of moral and ethical evolution for self-redemption is yet to be recognized and realized otherwise conspicuous in the precipitous decline in humanitarian values and rejection of righteousness.

Since creation until today the divine force existence is questioned and challenged with ridicule and blasphemy. The defiance to God’s will on fairness, justice and peace exemplified in defending offence, deception and deceit.

Despite timeless and seamless presence as the sun, the moon and the stars in the galaxy, the universe functionality with time marking the beginning and end of cyclical era depicting the supernatural phenomena effectiveness, the ignorance persists in the lack of awareness and knowledge about absolute truth.

The cosmic activities and energy on multidimensional planes with interventions to protect and save planet from destruction enabling life to continue and progress in the eternal spacial timeframe and extended course experiencing birth and death until liberation of soul from karmic effects resulting from deeds and wilful indulgence are some amongst myriad divine orientation.

Upon actions reaching the point beyond salvation, the need arises for penance providing yet another opportunity to defeat the enemy within starting with presumptuousness and egocentricity.

Human nature transcending prejudice and preoccupation allowing sincere care and compassion in the absence of ulterior motives would initialize the potential for harmony and happiness.

The commemoration and remembrance of sacrifices by Jesus Christ and great many noble souls are best demonstrated in performing the duty illustrated by them in teachings serving as testament.

Happy Easter!

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Terror and Terrorism – Origin and Purpose

March 25, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

Terror is the invention to spread fear and violence for greed and ideology driven goals substituting conventional warfare in the twenty first century.

The traditional wars engaged ground troops and air as well as sea operation i.e. the national and international force. Accordingly, the decision entailed congressional or parliamentary approval which means citizens consent.

Although the trend on wars in the past and present century ignored public opinion and continued with policy on invasion and occupation of foreign land,

The citizens’ protest to illegal wars on false pretexts became prominent in the wake of Iraq war in 2003 amid ongoing war in Afghanistan since 2001 at taxpayers’ expense with no end in sight until now.

Project for New American Century(PNAC) conceptualized and implemented in United States experiencing the initial blow on September 11, 2001.

The doctrine espouses launching terror comparable to nuclear attack on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan in the twentieth century to proceed with lofty aspirations in destabilizing nations that are regarded fair game in the quest for economic and strategic dominance.

Having pursued the path of terrorism against United States on fateful day September 11, 2001 with massive complicity within and outside the nation despite the country’s declared super power status on account of nuclear arsenal and military might,

The masterminds, architects, protagonists and catalysts behind PNAC continue on terror track terrorizing the world for failed strategy.

Relevantly, ISIS and ISIL…emergence is linked to al Qaeda in turn created by then National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski to counter cold war adversary the former Soviet Union.

Later, al Qaeda had become the useful resource demonstrated on September 11, 2001 and made PNAC mission admissible.

Not only the war was waged against United States on 9/11/2001 in order to accelerate PNAC specified agenda, the nations listed in the dossier were systematically attacked and destabilized for intended objective.

Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Sudan have been forced into eternal turmoil along with Syria besides Yemen in the North African region.

Syria was targeted in 2011 to topple the government headed by President Bashar al Assad deploying diverse means especially terrorism channeled via Libya and al Qaeda imported from Afghanistan and North Africa.

United States and Britain with western ally EU, Israel and Middle Eastern coalition such as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar, Jordan, Kuwait and UAE has sponsored, funded, armed and trained al Qaeda terror operatives developed under names like al Nusra Front, Takfiri, ISIL, ISIS and Daesh in Syria, Iraq and Libya.

The so called war on terror is essentially war against Syrian people for the sole reason of regime change. United States, Britain, France, Israel and EU with Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Qatar active promotion of terrorism is witnessed in blowback events in Paris, Brussels and cities in Turkey.

Western and Middle Eastern alliance sowing the seeds of terror and nurturing with continuous supply of ammunitions notwithstanding chemical weapons used against Syrian army personnel as well as civilians is the inherent problem that has grown into menace for Europe and Turkey in particular.

EU resolution in 2012 lifting arms embargo that was effective on terror networks in Syria rather than extending ban on weapons delivery to terror groups has led to emboldened terror unleashed in European capitals today.

Furthermore, the western egregious stance on Syria aiding and abetting terror through their partners in the Middle East proliferated terrorism.

Russia’s participation in the terror infested war in Syria aimed at Daesh, Takfiris, ISIL and ISIS ignited tensions between United States and Russia on the significance.

However, Russia having withdrawn air assaults with the exception of maintaining Naval base on Syrian turf in Tartus and protecting Russian interests following fragile ceasefire are recent developments in the war torn nation.

Syria has been dragged into quagmire as part of PNAC proposition. In western domain the term civil war for the international war using terrorism against Syria is rather misleading and disingenuous ignoring PNAC proponents ulterior motive.

The conventions to end Syrian conflict from onset until today are unsuccessful predominantly due to terror sponsors and benefactors’ reluctance to relent to peaceful outcome.

As a result, the innocent children, women and men in Syria are the victims of senseless and merciless bloodshed with nearly 500,000 dead and two million and more refugees in their homeland and offshore enduring abuse and serious human rights violations by those responsible for Syrian catastrophe.

Europe vehemently opposed to Syrian refugee influx regardless of EU and major western nations viz. Britain, France and Germany as chief EU representative contribution towards terror manifestation in Syria boosting terror grid in the five years old Syrian crisis.

Any terror backlash in Europe and Turkey is the consequence of western powers and allies deployment and recruitment of terror factions in Syria with contagion effect on Iraq and Lebanon.

The misinterpretation of the situation in Syria, Iraq and Libya to suit western and allies position is betrayal of trust threatening national and global security.

PNAC is flawed and a disaster for humanity beginning with United States citizens on 9/11 and the rest of the world.  The devious perseverance annihilated scores of lives and made existence for millions impossible transforming nations into war zones preventing the dawn of peace.

Abandoning the ill fated PNAC ambitions and global supremacy would not only be wise but also imperative to avert burgeoning upheaval on the horizon.

In a just world, PNAC exponents and agents would be held accountable for heinous crimes against humanity and those in position of authority committing treason not to mention the breach of constitutional oath to protect the country and people they were appointed to serve during the term in office.

Project for New American Century is the primary source for terror infiltrated actions and stratagem.

Once again PNAC entities are listed for identification and indictment that would exemplify United States as the land of justice.

I offer my condolence to families grieving over the loss of loved ones in PNAC generated terror.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Political Setbacks on Social Issues

March 22, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

Political twists and maneuvers to prolong status quo is nothing more than a desperate strategy.

The pre-selected candidacies perform the scripted role to satisfy requirement aimed at rejecting pre-ordained purpose behind humanitarian tasks and planet survival.

United States Presidential race in 2008 ignored candidates’ gaffes, excess baggage and their respective affiliations with church, controversial figures and speeches as faux pas while condescending remarks notwithstanding devious insinuations viz. witchcraft, sorcery against divine mission dominated election.

In 2012, the focus was religious denomination – Mormonism in particular nuanced confirming the establishment and members’ identity.

Additionally, there was a mockery of this website for recommendations on legitimate governance with effective and meaningful economic plan and taxation laws leading to fair income distribution. The willful participants posing as progressives and populists engaged in denigrating ideas and solutions to problems created by supremacy oriented agenda.

Under the guise of entertainment, the satire promoted in this context highlight impropriety and distortion besides active plagiarism and copyright infringement on material, style and theme.

Not surprisingly, the 2016 election embarked on caricature and flagrant disposition on race, religion, gender and life orientation reflect the ruling cadre mindset and prejudice.

Obsession with power, fame and fortune corrupts individuals and political class deteriorating in civility and disregard for ethical standard that are not without repercussions as the wheels inevitably turn against those indulging in covetousness.

The discriminatory practice, segregation and isolation is the hallmark of colonialism judiciously adhered by loyalists today in the so-called democracy with little or no semblance to democratic principle.

Politics conforming to deception and false dissemination resist genuine concepts due to delusional aspirations and dismissal of repeat failures experienced thus far.  Social issues are exploited to the maximum for political gains and goals to benefit self and vested interests in the diminishing era of dominance.

Elsewhere, the policy retaining reservations and quotas patronize segments with caste connotations in the pledge of allegiance to feudalism denying society equality and disavow hierarchy system.

The common plight between marginalized demography and the rest among mainstream are poverty, unemployment and economic disparity. 

The sensible and rational approach in elevating economic and social conditions would be to eliminate plutocracy premised on nepotism and cronyism with impunity on corruption and criminal involvement.

Unless the nation recognizes all citizens with equal rights and opportunity implementing measures that abandon obsolete archaic traditions posing impediments, progress will remain a political rhetoric.

Social and economic justice is made possible in sowing the seeds of prospects and productivity barring undue preference and privileges to compete in a level playing field and showcase skills and ingenuity.

The regression on social evolution is a major setback despite society taking pride in modern aspects as cultural revolution.

Political decisions are primarily responsible in preventing positive changes in societal behavior.  The affluent groups and influential sources like entertainment and communication media are also used in protecting duality and duplicity.

The concerted efforts in undermining peace and harmony justified as political expediency is best declined along with manufactured events providing fodder for forces capitalizing on polarization and acrimony.

Fabrication and fiction as unscrupulous means do not necessarily become the fact regardless of publicity delineating reality from make-believe enactment.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Spiritual Event – மகாசிவராத்திரி, महाशिवरात्रि, MahaShivaratri – 2016

March 6, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

மகாசிவராத்திரி திருநாள்!

மகாசிவராத்திரி திருநாளையொற்றி சிவ பக்தர்களுக்கு என் மனமார்ந்த நல் வாழ்த்துக்கள்!

பரப்ர்ஹமன், பரமாத்மன் பரமேஷ்வர் அருளால் சகல துயரங்கள், பாவம், அறியாமை ஆகியவைகள் நீங்கி, ஞானம், பக்தி மற்றும் மனிதத்தன்மை, அமைதி உருவாக இந்த சுப தினம் வாய்ப்பு அளிக்கிறது.

சிவபெருமானை துதித்து ஆசியை அடைவதற்க்கு தூய மனம், நன் செயல், பரந்த மனப்பான்மை தேவை. இது ஏற்படுவதற்கு இறைவன் வழி காண்பிக்க இது ஒரு சந்தர்ப்பம்.

இந்த கலியுகத்தில் நடந்து வருகிற அநியாயம், அட்டுழியம், அபராதங்கள் காரணத்தினால் கடவுள் படைத்த இந்த உலகம் பாவ கடலில் மூழ்கி கிடக்கிறது. இதன் விமோச்சனம் மனித குலம் தன் தவுறுகளை உணர்ந்து அதன்படி பொறுப்பு ஏற்றுக்கொண்டு தண்டனையை பணிவுடன் மதிப்பது முதல் கடமையாகும். பிறகு தன் ஆணவம், அஹங்காரம், அபிமானத்திளிருந்து விடுதி பெற வேண்டும்.

எவரும் தன் கரும வினைகளை தவிர்க்க முடியாது. இது இயற்க்கையின் நீதி.

ஈசன் மன்னிப்புக்கும் தகுதி அவசியம். இது மானிடம் அறிய வேண்டும்.

பூலோகத்தில் நடக்கிற ஏறுமாறான நீதி வழக்குகள் அதன் தீர்ப்புகள் மாதிரி அல்ல. குற்றவாளிகளை அரசியல், சமூதாயம் என்று பதவியில் வைத்து அவர்களை பூஜிக்கவும், மதிக்கவும் செய்யும் பாரம்பரியம் பாவத்தை அதிகரித்து, புண்ணியம், நேர்மை இவைகளை நிராகரிக்கிறது.

கலியுகம் கூடிய சீக்கிரம் முடிய இறைவன் அனுக்ரஹம் அடைய வேண்டும். அதற்கு பிராயச்சித்தம், பிரார்ததனை மூலம் நல்ல எதிர்காலம் பிறப்பதற்கு முயற்சி செய்வது தான் நன்மை.

ஓம் நமசிவாய, ஓம் நமசிவாய,ஓம் நமசிவாய, சிவாய நம ஓம்!

நன்றி.

பத்மினி அர்ஹந்த்

महाशिवरात्रि शुभ पूजा

महाशिवरात्रि कि शुभ अवसर पर सभी शिव गण और शिव भक्तों को मेरी हार्दिक शुभ कामनाएं!

परब्रह्म, परमात्मन, परमेश्वर की कृपा से जीव, जंतु, प्राणी की पीड़ा, दोष, बुरे कर्म और पाप से मुक्ति प्राप्थ होता है.

ईश्वर की दया पाने के लिए शुद्ध मन और नेक व्यवहार आवश्यक है, जिसकी इस कलयुग में आकाल है.

भगवान शिव इस भूमि पर होरे रहे अघोर पाप, अनर्थ, हत्याचार, भ्र्ष्टाचार  एवं अन्याय को समाप्त करें और भूमा देवी, पावन नदियां और प्रकृति पर हो रहे आक्रमण का अंत हो.

छल, कपट और दुष्टता से भरपूर घटनायेन कलयुग के दृश्य है. सृष्टि के नियमों के अनुसार कलयुग का अंत अनिवार्य है और सभी को अपने कर्म के आगे जुकना होगा.

कर्म के फल से कोई मुक्त नहीं. अभिमान और अहंकार अज्ञान से उबरता है. समय करम दोनों मानव जात के लिए अपरिहार्य अवश्यंभावी है.
शिव करुणा से मानवता, सत्य, अहिंसा और भक्ति की प्रेरणा जागे.

ओम नामशिवाय, ओम नामशिवाय, ओम नामशिवाय, शिवाय नामा ओम!

शांति, देश भक्ति और एकता बड़े.

धन्यवाद.

पद्मिनी अरहंत

Best wishes and greetings to devotees of God Shiva on the auspicious occasion of MahaShivaratri.

May sentient beings suffering alleviated and ignorance dispelled with God Shiva’s grace and blessings for peaceful and enlightened existence.

None can escape karma. Redemption is possible through penance.  The soul burdened with sins could rest in peace and attain deliverance only upon atonement. 

OM NamaShivaya, OM NamaShivaya, OM NamaShivaya, Shivaya Nama Om!

Peace to all!

Thank you.

The Ruling Class Entitlement to Power

March 3, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

  1. Who is the ruling class?

The ruling class is incognito power comprising entities detached from sovereignty with defiance to republic status.

The incognito rulers rein control over politics, economy and all matter concerning human existence by PROXY.

While the system authority remains permanent, the representatives facing public are rotated upon exhausting maximum term in office.

  1. What are the ruling class goals?

Personal wealth accumulation lasting several generations at the average and middle class citizens expense.

Undermining common man and woman’s rights to equality and economic opportunity.

Waste ordinary citizens tax dollars in extravagant and lofty ambitions such as sponsoring terrorism to destabilize foreign nations for economic resources and strategic dominance.

Importantly, the ruling class entitlement to power is protected with political establishment allegiance to agenda and covenant detailing measures to suppress popular rising against socio economic disparity besides defending status quo.

  1. How does the ruling class maintain power?   

The political members are incentivized with monetary gains and secure terms in return for prolonging the ruling class governance.

The economic sector and various special interests investments in elections further guarantee respective candidacy loyalty to campaign financiers tied to ruling class.

  1. What is the modus operandi to validate illegitimate ruling class?

Elections are the primary means enforcing decisions against electorate choice.  The electoral process is maneuvered and modified using diverse tactics for pre-determined outcome rejecting voters’ preference in the race.

The election is catharsis for the ruling class to continue with business as usual having satisfied formality on pseudo democracy.

  1. Why do the ruling class fear challenges and oppose different view?

The ruling class doctrine subscribes to elitism against populism asserting superiority on all things to subvert reality on the ruling class parasitic culture exploiting main street vulnerability.

Although the ruling class would collapse upon average populace unsustainable plight, the desperate strategy is aimed at deriving ultimate benefits in depriving the people and labor force from fair share of income distribution.

Yet another trend is create and stage impostors and performers hired in futile effort to discredit genuine identity as well as message presented on this website.

The opposition to different view is the ruling class insecurity and intolerance to facts and reason that distinguish actuality.

  1. What is the future for the people and nation under the ruling class?

In the present conditions the future is bleak under the ruling class with greed for power, fame and fortune overwhelming the members beyond control leading to misuse of mandate and position.

  1. What can the people do for survival and betterment of life?

Declining the ruling class entitlement to power along with organizations and institutions behind policy holding citizens hostage to detrimental course.

  1. Is it possible for voters to initiate change through ballots?

The electorate seeking transparency from candidates in verifiable disclosure of campaign money and personal assets proving the source of revenue would be the preliminary step followed by track record on accomplishments favoring people rather than enhancing individual prospects.

  1. Why is there huuuuuuuuge objection from the ruling class in limiting campaign expenditure that would constrict cash flow funding candidacy?

The ruling class set up election fosters distraction from real issues and problems confronting the nation for that would reveal political incumbents performance or the lack thereof and instead supports smear rally against opponents to evade accountability.

  1. What is the path against the brick wall?

The ruling class declaration to power as privilege is to be voided with people united against state of affairs calling for dismantling of the brick wall built with secrecy, corruption and treason.

Where there is a will there is a way with sincere commitment to self-emancipation from deception and deterioration.

Peace to all!

Thank you.
