XI. Sthapnana of Viratrupa Lord Vishnu in Tibet (109th Divyadesham
of Lord Vishnu) in June, 2012
In 2012, a large Indian group having priest from both North & South India
went for Kailash & Manasarovar Yatra in Tibet (China). As you know that The
Manasarovar symbolizes with Lord Brhama and Kailash is Abode of Lord
Shiva. The group wanted to complete the presence of TRIDEVA (Place of
Lord Vishnu between Lord Brahma & Lord Shiva). Generally, Brahma is seen
on Right, Vishnu in the Centre & Shiva on Left, Trideva facing east. The
group had calculation on distance between Manasarovar North end & Kailash
and found that Darchen (Sanskrit, Darshan from where clear view of Kailash is had before starting Parikrama of 52 KM around on feet) is the exact
centre between Manasarovar & Kailash. So the group while starting from
India carried Viratrupa Vishnu Statue, all the puja requirement, Manjira
Instruments, Asanas, Vishnu Stuti Books etc and set up Vishnu Pratima in
June, 2012 (i.e Ganesh Sankashti Chaturthi day) after completion of
Kailash Parikarma. The group also gave the name as Vishnu Dhyana, Darchen
making it 109th Divyadesham of Lord Vishnu. Vishnu Dhyana is in a Bldg
opposite to China Post and close to China Mobile in Darchen Town (A small
town with less than 100 Bldgs.).
Also, the group has studied the edges of ShiShaPangma Peak (i.e 14th
Highest peak in the World) of Tibet and because of sharp edge like Parsha
(i.e Axe) gave the name as Parshuram Peak (Parshuram, 6th incarnation of
Lord Vishnu).
The water from ShiShapangma Peak falls to nearby large Lake called Peiku
Tso Lake. The group gave the name to this lake as Renuka Lake so that
Parshuram completes his repentance and fulfills mother’s wishes.
XII. Information on ROMAs (Gypsies):
We studied details on Roma Community which is today in 15 Million Plus and spread
in 27 Countries of Europe & few in Americas & Australia.
Majority of Historians agree that they are descendants of Hindus (Rajputs & few
tribal community) of North West India including Hindu Kush Region who were
repeatedly attacked by Mahmud Ghaznavi (i.e Sultan who looted Somnath Temple
in Gujarat on many times & destroyed it) in 11th century and finally taken them
slave, in many thousands of numbers, to Persia. Weakening of Rulers there , Romas
further migrated to Armenia, Balkans, Rumania & other part of Europe.
Still, many of them follow counting system, words for their day to day
activities & many customs & worshiping of Gods based on Hindu system.
As an academic interest & for awareness, we collected Websites and Email
addresses (of those who are subject experts or leaders of the Community) and
the same are attached.
A similar example but older than Roma plight is of an Israeli race who migrated to
Mizoram in India more than 2500 years back. Israelis carried out DNA testing and
found the truth. Accordingly, many thousands of Mizos recently migrated back to
Israel. (http://www.chhinlungisrael.com/mizo-israel).
By outside aggression, Ramas (Hindus) of Western India were made to become
Romas but today they are awaken and finding their roots and ancient linkages
to connect back to Ramas.
If you have more details or links on Roma Community, kindly send to us.
XIII. Other Databases created
We have prepared three other databases
i. “Yoga, Ayurveda & Healing” ii. “Astrology & Vedic Sciences” iii. “Classical Music, Dance & Instruments”
These are sent only to the respective category Acharyas, Performers and
Organizations.
XIV. General Points for Database
We have only listed working Websites & E-Mail addresses in the lists attached.
During this course of actions, we have also collected 579 websites separately,
though having Hindu related Website names but these are either not operational
now or have different contents than of subject matter.
Kindly enlarge magnification of pdf file to 150 % or more to see Websites clearly.
Click on any website address shall directly enable access to it.
It is for your kind information that we have listed sites/Logos/E-Mails etc under
broad category/reference country etc as it is difficult to categorize them
by water tight boundaries. Also few websites have been listed under World
category as they either have larger dimensions or country reference could not be
found.
Kindly check the websites directly in xxx.xxx.xxx or xxx.xxx format, as the case
may be and without using prefix www, as few websites' names listed are without
www.
We sincerely feel that so far we could collect around 80%-90% information of all
Hindu Websites in the vast Internet public domain. Any updation (addition/
deletion/ correction/ changing category etc) may please be informed and shall be
received by us with due respect.
In case if you need any other details, other than attached herewith, specific
to any Country/ Organization/ Deity, we shall be happy to provide.
� An Appeal:
Database attached may not be used in any form for marketing of any
product/commercial activity etc.
If we have added any website/Email entry wrongly, kindly send a line to us for
taking necessary action in this regard.
We apologize in advance for any error done by us.
� Inspirational Quotes:
Mahatma Gandhi
"There is no path to peace. Peace is the path"
"I do not want my house to be walled in on all sides and my windows to be
stuffed. I want the culture of all lands to be blown about my house as freely as
possible. But I refuse to be blown off my feet by any"
Swami Vivekananda
“In a day when you don't come across any problems - you can be sure that you
are traveling in the wrong path”
Max Mueller
“If I were asked under what sky the human mind has most fully developed some
of its choicest gifts, has most deeply pondered on the greatest problems of life,
and has found solutions, I should point to India”
� Our learning, so far:
Today’s Hindus can claim to be in the most awaken state since the era of writing
manuscripts started around 2800 years back in Greater India “Bharatavarsha”
(Panini wrote “Ashtadhyayi” around 500 BCE on leaves and the skill existed well
before him) & the word Hindu appeared for the first time around 800 BCE for
the people settled around River Sindhu or Indus and beyond (i.e. East of
Sindhu).
Prior to this, we were known only by the name Vedic/ Santana Dharma or its
way of living. Majority of other religions such as Buddhism, Jainism & Sikhism
in India and Christian, Islam etc in the West were born afterwards.
� Reminding Mission:
1. Bringing world's all Spiritual Organisations of Hindu/Santana/Vedic
Dharma on a common platform, besides their minor ideological differences.
2. Propagating inner awakening in all the followers of Hindu/Santana/Vedic
Dharma to rise against the forces which want to destroy this Dharma
through a systematic & well calculated strategy.
......A sincere beginning through Media Platform.
