Thought for the Day – Dada J P Vaswani

It is good to know many things, but it is always better to make good use of whatever little we know.

Teach me O Lord! To observe all the rules of the game of life, never to lose my sense of humor, and always to hold my tongue when it is so difficult to hold it!

Death but occurs but once, and that, too, never before its appointed time. Yet the whole world lives in perpetual fear of death.

Hello, Capt JS Chauhan
It was very informative reading all the info you have given abt shivling and shaligram pooja. You have mentioned that shankh shud not be used for shivling abhishek, but in tamilnadu in the month of karthika all the shiva temples do 108 shankh abhishek on all the mondays in that month. Can you explain?
