Rajamahendravaram, Aug 6: Two NRI sisters — Sindhu Vagdevi Vipparthy (12) and Shruti Vagdevi Vipparthy (9) — won appreciation from one and all when they recited 700 slokas in Bhagavad Gita from memory at Datta Mukthi Kshetram, on the banks of the Godavari, here on Saturday.

Devotees from Iskcon temple, near Datta Mukthi Kshetram, also were mesmerised by the recitation. The Krishnashtami celebrations are also going to begin from Monday at the Iskcon temple.

Naresh Kumar Bhavaraju, manager of Datta Mukthi Kshetram, said that it was commendable for children born and brought up in USA to learn Bhagavad Gita slokas.

Both Sindhu and Shruti completed their 7 and 3 Grades respectively from California, USA. Their parents Anand Murthy and Vijayalakshmi hailed from Rajamahendravaram and Secunderabad. Sri Ganapathi Sachchidananda Swamiji blessed the children when they were born and named them. Both of them participated in 24-hour Hanuman Chalisa chanting event conducted in Texas (USA) which was a Guinness World Record.

With this motivation they memorised all 700 slokas of Bhagavad Gita. On July16 this year, they chanted Sampoorna Gita Parayana, Gita Mahatyam, Gita Dhyanam, Gita Sara and Gita Aarti in four hours from memory in the presence of Sri Ganapathi Sachchidananda Swamiji in Mysuru. They are part of Tataji Sena (a group formed by the seer for children).

Cheddis claim that many muslims were HIndus... We accept that and we thank ALLAH for showing our forefathers the right path of following NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI (there is no image of GOD) - We thank ALLAH, the lord of the universe for keeping our faith in him and worshiping him alone.

Worshiping ALLAH alone takes us out of the DARKNESS,

Takes us out of worshiping the created things,

Takes us out of superstitious,

Takes us out of animal worhsip,

Takes us out of worshiping idols (which is lifeless)

Takes us out of human worship.

Takes us out of Worshiping Money.

ALHaMdullillah (Thanks and praise be to ALLAH) who showed us LIGHT of LIFE to cope with any situation in our LIFE that he has given us.

I request the NON MUSLIMS to look for the divine message (The QURAN) once in your life time.U will be suprised to know who is hiding the TRUTH from reaching the TRUE GOD.

"Those whose intelligence has been stolen by MATERIAL DESIRES surrender unto demigods and follow the particular rules and regulations of worship according to their own natures."
[Bhagavad Gita 7:20]

The Gita states that people who are materialistic worship demigods i.e. �gods� besides the True God .

Worship the TRUE GOD, U will get content in this world and the life after death.

Holy Kaaba dons new Kiswa woven with 120 kg gold and 100 kg silver threads

Agencies

July 30,2020

Makkah, July 30: Like every year, the Kiswa (black cloth) of holy Kaaba was replaced on Wednesday night, a process administered by the staff of the General Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques in accordance with the annual tradition, the Saudi Press Agency reported.

Ahmed Bin Mohammed Al-Mansouri, deputy head of the General Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques and director-general of the King Abdul Aziz Complex for the Kaaba, said in a statement that the Holy Kaaba was donned with a new Kiswa, constituted of four sides and a sitar (curtain) for the door.

Each of the four parts of the Kiswa was separately raised, in preparation for stretching it on the old side. The side was consolidated from above by tying it and dropping at the other end after the old side’s ropes were untied by moving the new side up and down.

Then, the old side was removed from the bottom and the new side remained, and the process was repeated four times for each section until the operation was complete and the belt was sewn in a line, straight with the four sides, Al-Mansouri said.

Al-Mansouri added: “The process began from the side of the Hateem (a semi-circular wall opposite the northwest wall of the Kaaba), because Al-Mizab (a rainwater spout made of gold) requires a special opening at the top. After consolidating all the sides, the corners were fixed by sewing them from the top of the cloth to the bottom.

Then, the curtain that required more time and hard work was installed by making a small opening with an approximate width of 3.30 meters. Three other holes were made in the black cloth to put the curtain in place under the cloth, and the sides were sewn in the black cloth of the dress, Al-Mansouri said, adding that the Kaaba cloth is made of 670 kg of high-quality silk, 120 kg of gold threads, and 100 kg of silver threads.

As many as 200 Saudi craftsmen are engaged in producing the black curtain at the King Abdul Aziz Complex for Holy Kaaba Kiswa, Al-Mansouri said.
