hello sir
i am rahul shrimli “moun”
i like to read very much
Hello Sir, I am a big fan of yours and regular reader of your s articals and all .
I have read ‘Krunhanu Jivan Sangeet’. Its a wonderful commentary on Bhagwat Geeta.I have still some doubts in my mind.Kindly answer my question.
There are two incidents in Arjuna’s life in which he is entangled in ‘Maya,’ according to the Mahabharata. The first one is before teachings of Geeta to Him by Lord Krishna at Kurukshetra before the war.The second one is after his promise to Krishna, ‘Karishye vachanam tav’ when his son Abhimanyu is killed in the war, again he is in the same ‘attachments’ as he was in before the war.Lord Krishna again preaches him, again Lord Krishna cleared his doubts.Krishna brings him to a place where Abhimanyu has his new incarnation of a parrot.The parrot ( Abhimanyu )refuses even to give due respect as a father and also refuses to accept him as his father.
Why does Arjun forget all teachings of Geeta? What is the meaning of such Knowledge which can not remind a person like Arjun who is very closed and beloved to the God? or is there any metaphorical implieses in this events? Please share your thoughts with me. Thank you.

Namstay,
I found that you have studied Krishna vary deep.
I am doing research on Sudarshan Chakra as a source of Energy against fosil fule or Nucliar.
this is possible to offer to world at large by the Hindu community, but none of the institute of repute like iit, prl, iis, drdo etc.. doing research… and present science considers it as impossible as they belived Plane–Pushpak.
Can you be helpful to bring awareness and break the nut shell.

Namaste Pareshji,
You have to study “Dhanur Veda”. Then only you may clearly know about ancient weapons. This Upa Veda deals with such matters. It is available in Hindi written by a Vedic scholar before about 10 years. You may also refer Swami Dayananda Saraswati’s “Rigvedadibhashyabhumika”. I quote below a para from Dayananda’s Satyarth-Prakash, which I hope you will find interesting:
Quote:
Question: Is it true that the ancients knew the use of fire-arms, such as Agneyastra, about which we read in ancient Sanskrit literature. Were cannons and muskets known to the ancients or not?
Answer: Yes, it is true. Guns and like fire-arms were used in ancient times. The Agneyastra and the like weapons can be manufactured by the application of scientific principles.
Question: Were they brought into existence through magical formulae sanctified by the Gods?
Answer: No, the methods of manufacturing these weapons were evolved as the result of deep thought (mantra). But mere pronouncing of mantra, which is nothing but a collections of words, cannot produce and substance. Were any one to say that the chanting of a mantra (or a hymn) can produce fire, he may be asked as to why it should not burn the throat and tongue of the person who recites it. How funny that a person should burn himself to death while meditating the death of his enemy. A mantra literally means the power of thought, hence Raja mantri, from Raja- state, and mantri – one who thinks, is one who thinks over the affairs of a State and is the King’s adviser.
Thus, men after deep study acquire a knowledge of the laws of nature, and by the proper application thereof make many discoveries in the domain of art and invented machines. As for instance, if an iron arrow or a ball be filled with such substances as when ignited will produce smoke, which by coming in contact with air or the rays of the sun will catch fire, he will have invented an Agneyastra. The fire opened by it will fail of its effect, if the commander of the opposing army discharges a Varunastra which is made of such materials whose smoke is converted into a cloud.
Likewise, there existed in ancient times other weapons of war, such as Vaagaphansa – which when discharged against an enemy paralyzed his limbs – and Mohanastra – which was charged with such narcotic substances whose smoke could cause stupefaction of the soldiers of the enemy -, and Pashupatashtra – another kind of Agnevastra, in which electricity produced from a wire, glass or some other substance was employed to kill one’s enemy.
As regards the words Top (cannon) and Bandook (muskets) they belong to a foreign language and not to Sanskrit or to any of the Indian Vernaculars allied to it. Now what called a Top (cannon) by the foreigners, is spoken of as Shatagahni (literally that which kills hundreds at a time) and bandook (musket), Bhushundi in Sanskrit and Arya Bhaashaa (one of the most widely spoken Indian Vernaculars). Hose who are unacquainted with the Sanskrit literature write and say all sorts of nonsense. Their writings can never be considered as authentic by the learned.

Listen to an all-encompassing radio interview in Gujarati with Dr Gunvant Shah on Sur-Samvaad Gujarati Radio, Sydney. Log on to http://www.sursamvaad.net.au or http://sursamvaad.wordpress.com.
Respected Gunyantbhai,
Namaskar, I am reading your book ‘Mahamanav Mahavir’. It is really a wonderful book. Certain chapters are to be noted down e.g. Vishvashantini Vyuha rachana, Syadvada and Dehadaman, Mahavirthi Mahatma Gandhi Sudhi’, Ecological audit. Being a non-jain you have really enlightened Jainism in modern context. I have bought two books for my centre i.e. K.J. Somaiya Centre for Studies in Jainism.
We are carrying out a research project on Saman – Suttam. In prologue of your book Sri. Ramanlal Shah has said that you have derived the source from Samana Suttam. Is it possible for you to guide us in our research Project on Saman- Suttam ? which commentaries we should gather? May be your Respected Shelachandra Vijayaji may direct us to some books.
In this context, let me tell you that my latest book on ‘Ahimsa: From Mahavir to Mahatma’ has been published by Gandhi Smruti and Darshan Samiti, Delhi in Dec. 2008. The price is Rs. 225/- (Two hundred and twenty five only)
I am sorry that I dial not read your this book before publishing my book on ‘Ahimsa from Mahavir to Mahatma’ otherwise I would certainly have mentioned it in my reference.
I also read your articles on ‘Jai Bhanini Jatra’ in Samarpan as well as your ‘Cardiogram’ in Chitrelakha nowadays.
Thanking you.
Sir,
I want to contact Mr. Gunvant Shah. Will you be please kind enough to send me his e-mail address or physical address.

Dear Reader of Tahuko
The above comment does not put by my self, but somebody use my name. I did police complaint by e-mail commissioner@met.police.uk It must be from Swadhyay and Didi’s supporters from UK. If you wish to do complaint please does it with my e-mail reference (this).
Honourable Gunvantbhai Shah criticised Didi and swadhyay. Mr Bharat Patel and Manjibhai kerai were Motabhai of Swadhyay but they left swadhyay when they realise Swadhyay’s SINS. After the Lt Pankajbhai Trivedi murder world knows about Swadhyay’s crimes by electronic media, TV, newspapers, Emails and http://www.Vijayuncle.com. Log on and click swadhyay untold story.
The above web-site run by Dr. Vijay Mehta. He is a board certified surgeon and chief or General – Thoracic & Vascular surgery at Central Texas Veterans Health Care Systems in Temple TX. He is Asst Professor of Surgery at the Texas A & M Health Science Center. Dr. Mehta has served on the admission committee for past fifteen years.
Now you can understand why they put this type bad e-mail and use my name.
I am salute to Lt Pankajbhai Trivedi, Gunavantbhai Shah, Vijaybhai Mehta, Bharat Patel, Manji Kerai and many of people who do not become silance against the Swadhyay’s Crimes
Do not silance against the Crime.
