GAYA - MOST REVERED PLACE FOR SOLEMNIZING SHRADDH

Pitru Paksha is considered very special for Hinduism. The fifteen days of the Krishna Paksha of Bhadrapada month are called Pitru Paksha. This time Pitru Paksha started from 10th September. On the days of Pitru Paksha, people perform Shraddh on the death anniversary of their ancestors. It is a religious belief that by performing Shraddh in Pitru Paksha, Pind Daan reaches directly to the ancestors. It is believed that during Pitru Paksha, Yamraj also frees the souls of the ancestors, so that they can be satisfied by living among their descendants on earth and consuming food and water. On the days of Pitru Paksha, people remember their ancestors and perform Pind Daan, tarpan, and charity in their name. It is believed that when people leave their bodies and go away, then for the peace of their souls, Pind Daan and Tarpan are performed in Gaya with reverence. Performing Shraddh in Pitru Paksha is considered important for the peace of the souls of the ancestors.

Due to the importance of Gaya, lakhs of people come here every year to offer Pind Daan to their ancestors. Let us know the reasons behind performing Shraddh Karma in Gaya.   1- Brahma Ji had given a boon to Gayasur, those who donate Pind to their ancestors at this place during the period of Pitru Paksha in Gaya, will get salvation. 2- Dashrath Ji died after Shri Ram Ji went to the forest. During this, Sita Ji had given the body to the phantom soul of Dashrath Ji in Gaya itself. That is why from that time this place is considered paramount for tarpan and pind daan. 3- Knowing the son in Gaya and touching it in the Falgu River leads to the death of the ancestor. 4- By giving the proof of the letter along with the sesame in the Gaya region, the father gets to Akshayalok. By donating Pind here, one gets rid of grave sins like Brahmahatya, Supana, etc. 5- By donating Pind in Gaya one gets the result of Koti Tirtha and Ashwamedha Yagya. Here one can donate Pind to the person doing Shraddh during any period. Also, eating Brahmins here satisfies the ancestors. 6- By shaving before performing Pind Daan in Gaya, one goes to Baikunth, as well as attains work, anger, and salvation. 7- The river Falgu, Tulsi, crow, cow, banyan tree, and Brahmins present in Gayaji testify to the Shraddha rituals performed by them. 8- Mata Sita had done Tarpan in Gaya ji. By donating Pind in Gaya, the soul attains salvation. Hence this place is also called Moksha Sthali. 9- Lord Vishnu himself resides in the form of Pitrudev in Gaya. By performing Shraddh Karma and Tarpan method in Gaya, nothing remains left and the person becomes free from Pitru debt. 10- In Pitru Paksha, those who offer three anjalis of sesame-mixed water to their ancestors, their sins from birth till the day of the tarpan are destroyed.

FASCINATING FACTS ABOUT 118 YEARS CLOSED TEMPLE

The Konark Sun Temple, located on the banks of the Chandrabhaga River in the state of Odisha, is a colossal amalgamation of artistic magnificence and engineering mastery built in the mid-13th century. King Narasimhadeva I, the great ruler of the Ganga dynasty, built the Konark Sun Temple with the help of 1200 artisans during his reign in 1243-1255 AD. Since the rulers of the Ganga dynasty worshiped the sun, the temple, built in the Kalinga style, depicts the sun god in the form of a chariot and the stones are carved with exquisite carvings. This temple is made of red sandstone and black granite stones. The entire temple site is built with twelve pairs of wheels pulled by seven horses, in which the sun god is shown seated. Currently, only one horse is left, out of the seven horses. The temple as it exists today has survived partly due to the preservation of archaeological teams from the British India era.

BEST BIOLUMINESCENT BEACHES

There are many beaches around the world that display bioluminescence (soft light), an amazing natural phenomenon that causes the water to glow at night. This is due to the presence of tiny marine organisms called dinoflagellates that emit light when excited. Scientists believe that this blue light is related to changes in the marine ecosystem. The blue light is called bioluminescent (light produced from the chemical energy of the algae). They say that this blue light is caused by algae called bioluminescent phytoplankton. When waves hit the shore, they convert chemical energy into electrical energy. During this process, it appears on the surface in blue color. It is also called sea sparkle or sea sparkle in simple words. The scientific name of the algae that produces the bioluminescent is Noctiluca scintillans. It belongs to the Phytoplankton species. Here are eight beaches from around the world known for their bioluminescent viewing:

Men will not be allowed to enter these parks. The park will be designed keeping in mind the convenience of women.

The entrance to Parda Bagh was guarded by two tall strong Pathan women and children above the age of nine were not allowed to enter it. It was an open space where women could walk freely and move around without worrying about other people. The park was also used by women active in the freedom struggle to hold meetings. In 2019, the Shahjahanabad Redevelopment Corporation (SRDC) decided to revive Zanana Park as a part of the Jama Masjid Complex redevelopment plan, but the project was never implemented. It is expected that now with this scheme women will be able to get a special space for them.

Additionally, the Minister addressed the challenges posed by the internal situation in Myanmar, which has affected various infrastructure projects including the Trilateral Highway Initiative involving India, Myanmar, and Thailand. The Trilateral Highway Project is envisioned as a key driver of regional connectivity. Jaishankar said the turmoil in Myanmar has created hurdles in ongoing infrastructure efforts, especially the section of the Trilateral Highway that is under construction, along with the construction of 69 bridges.The survey has been completed in April 2023 to start the construction of the railway line between India and Bhutan.

TRIP TO THE STATUE OF UNITY

Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, known as the "Iron Man of India", was not only a freedom fighter but also a visionary leader. Born on October 31, 1875, in Gujarat, Patel was a dedicated lawyer. He always stood for justice, equality, and unity. His contribution was also in the making of the Indian Constitution. Because he served as a key member of the Constituent Assembly and chaired the committee responsible for drafting the Constitution, he played an important role in merging many Indian princely states into the country. Which includes other princely states including Hyderabad.National Unity Day is celebrated every year on 31 October in India as the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The day is celebrated as Rashtriya Ekta Diwas to honor his monumental achievement of integrating more than 550 princely states into the Union of India. In a diverse country like India, unity among its people is extremely important. At a time when many princely states were fragmented, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel supported the vision of a united India. National Unity Day commemorates the struggles and sacrifices made by Patel and other activists to unite the country. It affirms solidarity, promotes the spirit of "Unity in Diversity" and emphasizes the importance of maintaining national integrity.National Unity Day was officially established in 2014 by the Government of India to honor the legacy of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. Patel was a staunch supporter of a united and strong India and this dedication was reflected in his life's work. The government's decision to designate his birthday as National Unity Day underlines the importance of his contribution. In 2018, on the 143rd birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the grand ‘Statue of Unity’ near the Narmada River in Gujarat. Patel's famous slogan, "Ek Bharat, Shrestha Bharat" still inspires the nation.The 'Statue of Unity' is the tallest statue not only in India but in the world and a symbol of pride for India. The Statue of Unity has now become a favorite destination for tourists and the number of tourists coming here is also continuously increasing. Recently, reports have revealed that the Statue of Unity has left behind the top 5 monuments of the country in terms of earnings. In just one and a half years, this memorial has earned more than Rs 120 crore. The earnings of this monument are continuously increasing. After its inauguration in the year 2018, more than 24 lakh tourists came here in one year, from which about Rs 64 crore was earned. The height of the 'Statue of Unity' installed on the Sardar Sarovar Dam is 182 meters, which is twice the height of the 93-meter-high 'Statue of Liberty' in New York, America. Its total weight is 1700 tons. Foot height is 80 feet, hand height is 70 feet, shoulder height is 140 feet and face height is 70 feet. Rs 2989 crore has been spent on making the statue of Sardar Patel. It is said that 200 engineers and 2,500 laborers were involved in its construction. There are two lifts installed in this statue, through which Sardar Patel's chest can be reached and from there, the view of Sardar Sarovar Dam can be seen. Also, beautiful valleys can be enjoyed. There is a bridge and boat arrangement for the tourists to reach the statue of Sardar.
