A Guide Book for all – Demystifying Myriad Global Financial Terms The present day world is full of jargons. Though most of the concepts are known to us, the jargon or acronym seems to be new to us. For instance, the latest buzzword in Management is ‘GRC’. The very word scars the readers. But when expanded as “Governance, Risk Management and Compliance”, we feel relaxed – Oh! It is so simple. Again most part of the world uses ‘Cheque’ as a banking instrument. U.S. has the habit of having its own method of spelling the words and it uses ‘Check’ in the place of Cheque in ...

We have Sahasranama Stotrams on almost all the Gods/ Goddesses. These verses are split into 1000 names and archana is performed to the concerned God. When anybody hears the word ‘Sahasranama’, immediately Sri Vishnu Sahasranama Stotra will only first come to the mind. Sometimes, may also be reminded of Sri Lalita Sahasranama Stotra. When there are Sahasranamam Stotrams/ Namavalis on every other God, what is the specialty of these two. Sri Vishnu Sahasranama Stotra is in the midst of an Itihasam called Mahabharata. Sri Lalita Sahasranamam Stotra is the core within Brahmanda Puranam. Both...

As per puranas, originally there were 108 Upanishads. Later some more have been added and now we have 188 Upanishads. Out of these 33 Upanishads are above Sri Devi.

The mantras are written both in Samskrutam and English. For some of the them the commentary have also been taken from various sources and given in the simple language. Let the readers be blessed by Sri Devi. Om Tat Sat.

Vedic Mathematics is not only a sophisticated pedagogic and research tool but also an introduction to an ancient civilisation. It takes us back to many millennia of India’s Mathematical heritage. Rooted in the ancient Vedic sources which heralded the dawn of human history and illumined by their erudite exegesis, India’s intellectual, scientific and aesthetic vitality blossomed and triumphed not in only in philosophy, physics, Astronomy, ecology and performing arts but also in Geometry, Algebra and arithmetic. Vedic Mathematics is just around 50 years old and has lot of potential and ...

Not only Shakti is responsible for creation, it is also the agent of all changes. Shakti is cosmic existence as well as liberation, its most significant form being the Kundalini Shakti, a mysterious psycho-spiritual force. Shakti exists in a state of svaatantreeya, dependence on no one, being interdependent with the entire universe. In Puraanas, for story sake, Shakti is denoted as consort of Shiva and again she is mentioned as sister of Vishnu. But, in the Shankaranaaraayana form the left part of Shiva is Naraayana. Again in the form of Ardhanaareeshvara the left part of Shiva is Shakti. ...

GRC – Governance, Risk and Compliance — is an umbrella term for the processes and practices that organizations implement to meet business objectives. This is a relatively a new jargon, probably a decade+ old. However, GRC management has come a long way from binders full of documentation, unwieldy spreadsheets, and other manual processes. Rather than just a catchall term for unconnected management activities, truly integrated GRC — sometimes referred to as integrated risk management — takes a holistic, enterprise-wide approach to understanding risks and opportunities to better ...

Vedanga Jyothisha says - “Like the crest of the peacock, like the gem on the head of a snake, so is Mathematics at the head of all knowledge”. Indian Mathematicians are numerous - Pingala, Aryabhata, Bhaskara, Brahmagupta, Kaatyaayana, Mahaaveeraacaarya, Maadhava, Sreedharaacaarya, Bhaarati Krishna Teerthaji Maharaaj and so on. Their contributions to the world of Mathematics are lot many – place value system, importance of ‘Zero’, etc. Vedas and Mathematics are inseparable. It is an integral part of Vedas, which origin is yet to be clearly specified. Hence the origin of Indian ...

This is an exploration of Lalitā Sahasranāma. There is many a book available on Lalitā Sahasranāma. This book is not on, but about Lalitā Sahasranāma. Paribhāsha verses are an insight into, an analysis of, a research paper on and what not, about Lalitā Sahasranāma. These forty verses apparently look like praising/ bowing to Shreedevee. But it is full of mathematics using Katapayādhi and Bhoota Sankya methods of denoting numerals in Samskrit by letters/ words. Sahasranāma about any God is always in the form stotra-s – i.e. verses. Different sages split the verses into 1000 names...

An exposition of Similarities in Lalitā Sahasranāma with Soundaryalaharee, Saptashatee, Viśṇu Sahasranāma and Shreemad Bhagavad Geeta. There are lot of Purāṇas and Stotras about every God/ Goddess in Hindu religion. This provides liberty to the devotees to imagine the God/ Goddess in the form of his/ her choice. However, when these Purāṇas and Stotras are studied in depth it is very clear that they all convey the same sense. In one place it is Nārāyaṇa and in another place it is Nārāyaṇī. Somewhere it is as Ardhanārīshvara – i.e. The left half of Śankara is ...

‘A’– none, ‘dvaita’ – dual – Advaita means there is no-two or non-duality. This theory was propounded and globalised by Sree Adi Sankara. He also established the Shanmata, six sub-religions of Hindu religion. Shakta – the worshipers of Shakti, is one of those six sub-religions. When advaita is expounded by Sree Adi Sankara in all his teachers, works, discourses, etc., this book tries to address the advaita principles in Shaakta religion. Again there are very many texts relating to Shakti and hence owned by Shaakta religion. Dealing with all those in one work is humanly ...
