Sorry if this should be obvious, but is this shloka from the Rig Veda venerating #Indra? Or #Vishnu? (I've seen it cited as a Vishnu mantra.)

Rig Veda 4.32.20

भूरि॑दा॒ भूरि॑ देहि नो॒ मा द॒भ्रं भूर्या भ॑र । भूरि॒ घेदि॑न्द्र दित्ससि ॥
भूरिदा भूरि देहि नो मा दभ्रं भूर्या भर । भूरि घेदिन्द्र दित्ससि ॥

English translation:

“A bountiful giver are you, Indra; give bountifully to us; (give) not little; bring much; for verily you desire to give much.”

Astronomen ontdekken oudste bekende verwijzing naar eclips in 6000 jaar oude Hindoe-tekst 

De passages zijn bloemrijk maar passen goed bij een zonsverduistering. Er wordt beschreven hoe de Zon wordt “doorboord” door duisternis en somberheid en er wordt gesteld dat kwaadaardige wezen

In #China, New Year's Day falls in spring, but the exact date is determined by when the new moon falls in relation to #Dongzhi, the winter solstice festival.

The #RigVeda also implies that the winter solstice marked New Year's Day in the #IndusValley civilisation, but is unfortunately too vague to say much with certainty.

I am now going to talk in a somewhat more abstract and philosophical way about time, drawing on #Jyotisha

Much rumors about India's imminent name change. Why is India planning to change its name, creating a rift between geography and politics?
For the lovers of language and culture, for those enamored with matters Indian, for the students reading Sanskrit and Pali with me, ..., this small note on sense and nonsense of dropping India in favor of Bhārat.

If you're up for listening to/participating in a Sanskrit mantra while meditating, read the description below the video in the link below and then give it a listen. I felt that it was so powerful/sacred that I'm gonna give it a week or two between listens; may it move you too... 🕉️​

" Ano bhadrah Krathavo Yanthu Vishwathah"

Let the knowledge come to us from every direction "

O, God! You are the friend of all because of your merits. A good person embellished with good thoughts becomes the friend or benefactor of all. Such a person influences others, because of his positive personality traits and attracts them and as a result, he befriends all.
