Sanatana is Alive

2022-03-01 19:42:46 "Such being nature's arrangement of the universe, and all these nations being allotted temperaments which are lacking in due moderation, the truly perfect territory, situated under the middle of the heaven, and having on each side the entire extent of the world and its countries, is that which is occupied by the Roman people. In fact, the races of Italy are the most perfectly constituted in both respects—in bodily form and in mental activity to correspond to their valour. (...) Hence, it was the divine intelligence that set the city of the Roman people in a peerless and temperate country, in order that it might acquire the right to command the whole world."

- Vitruvius, De architectura (Book VI, Chapter I)

Ravana was a great practitioner of statecraft. When Lord Rama killed Ravana, who was on his last breath, Rama instructed his brother Lakshmana to go to Ravana and learn the art of statecraft and diplomacy from the dying demon king.

2021-09-22 13:00:45 ⁣Are Vishnu and Shiva the same? Let's see what our scriptures say about it:

Skanda Purana
As there is Shiva, so is Vishnu and as there is Vishnu, so is Shiva. There is not even a slightest difference between Shiva and Vishnu.

Vishnu Purana
Person whose Atman is deluded by Avidya, he alone sees and talks the difference, sees the difference between Me (Hari) and Hara.

In the Agni Purana, Yamaraja orders the Yamadutas and says: "Bring them to me, people who hate Vishnu in the name of Shiva and people who hate Shiva in the name of Vishnu".
