Ghost in Hindu Religion - The Preta concept in Hinduism
Ghost in Hinduism is referred as ‘preta’, ‘pey’, ‘pret’ or ‘pretam.’ Do Hindus believe in ghosts? It depends on the individual but it is believed that majority believe in ghosts. The concept of ghosts in Hindu religion is often associated with those people who had an unnatural death like murder, accident, etc and those dead people who were not given proper Hindu dead rituals like Shraadha or Tarpan.
Hindu Death Rituals and Beliefs - Specially dedicated in loving memory of Chandran
A sad day for me on his sudden departure which I feel very cruel for God to act in such manner but again this is fated and a cycle that all human had to undergo.With his short life on earth I feel sorry for his wife and daughter.I decided to post this info's on my blog and I believe will help to understand more on the rituals that been practising by Hindus through out the world.
I dedicate this post in loving memories of Chandran whom had left us leaving behind wife and loving daughter.May his athma attain satgathi and in peace.Om Namah Shivaya!
There is one thing that is certain in this lifetime: eventually we all must die. A belief in the cyclical reincarnation of the soul is one of the foundations of the Hindu religion. Death is viewed as a natural aspect of life, and there are numerous epic tales, sacred scriptures, and vedic guidance that describe the reason for death's existence, the rituals that should be performed surrounding it, and the many possible destinations of the soul after departure from its earthly existence. While the ultimate goal is to transcend the need to return to life on earth, all Hindus believe they will be reborn into a future that is based primarily on their past thoughts and actions.
The first mortal to meet his fate with Death was named Yama. This dubious honor makes him uniquely qualified to lead the way for others after death. The sacred scriptures of the Rig Veda, which call him King Yama, promise that all who have been good will receive "admission to Yama's paradise and the everlasting enjoyment of all the heavenly pleasures, include the restoration of a sick body, the maintaining of family relations and the highly desired apotheosis". Yama is aided by two killer guide dogs that are described as the "four-eyed keepers of the path, who watch over men." These "two dark messengers of Yama with flaring nostrils wander among men, thirsting for the breath of life". Yet, once they have secured their prey, they lead them back to their heavenly realm, where Yama directs them to their destiny. Jump Start Car From the Inside
Jump starting a car is a simple task that doesn’t require much except another car, some jumper cables (the knowledge of what not to do with them) and knowing the location of your battery. Some people don’t know how to do this, some are just afraid of messing around with electricity or getting their hands dirty. If you know someone like this refer them to ThinkGeek’s Closed-Hood Car Jump Starter. It works by connecting the vehicle with the dead battery to another via the cigarette lighter outlets.
Why It's Good to Think You Are the Greatest
Muhammad Ali is known for boasting and bragging about his abilities. His overconfidence may have contributed to his success
From the quality of one's ability to drive to being able to predict the stock market, humans tend to be overconfident creatures. A new study helps explain why.
Despite the risks of car accidents, market bubbles and violence that come along with hubris, overconfidence is often a good strategy for individuals, especially in situations that are full of uncertainty, according to the new study.
The basic message is it's worth it to fight back or take risks, even if you think your opponent might be stronger than you, because you never know. You might just not have the full story. And it's not about pretending or bluffing. Truly believing you are stronger or smarter than you are can make all the difference.
The findings offer insight into a variety of situations throughout history, from financial crises to wars. In offering a new way to understand human behavior, the results may also help prevent similar disasters from happening in the future.

Communication Made Easier
Sign language, as most probably know is used usually by hearing impaired people but there are some disabilities that also required the use of sign language to communicate. This sign language, although is widely seen, is not used by normal people, which causing them a hard time to communicate with these special people. But thanks to Luise Pescheck, a design student in University of Applied Sciences Schwäbisch Gmünd, communicating with sign language is no longer a dream.

Kalsarpa Yogam - What is this? And their effect in Horoscope
Kalsarpa Yoga or Kala Sarpa Yogam, as per Hindu astrology, is a dreaded yoga found in a person’s horoscope where the person under the influence of this yog leads a very miserable life. ‘Kal’ means ‘Time’ and ‘Sarpa’ means ‘Snake or Serpent’. Kalsarp Yoga is so powerful that it can even cancel out all the good Yogas of your horoscope chart.
When some stars concentrate at a single particular position in the horoscope it is the conjunction of planets and in astrology it is termed as “yog”. Kalsarpa is formed when Rahu Graha is tainted. When Rahu is in a good position it brings good fortune. Rahu and Ketu are believed to be shadow planets. When all planets are hemmed between Rahu and Ketu Kalsarpa is formed. Rahu and Ketu are placed opposite to each other at 180 degree and they don’t have any solid form and cannot be seen with naked eyes.The Legend behind Kalsarpa YogaKalsarpa is determined on the basis of the position of Rahu and Ketu in the birth chart. Rahu is considered the head of a snake and Kethu is considered the tail of the snake. Rahu is the North Lunar Mode and Ketu is the South Lunar Mode. Lord Rahu was the son of Sinishka and Hiranya Kashyap. He went into the sea to drink the ‘amrit’ obtained from Samudramathan and when he was about to drink Lord Vishnu disguised as Mohini and cut his head off. Later the north part was called as Rahu and the south part was called Ketu and they were made part of Navgraha.
