Welcome to Karthikapally !
Karthikapally is a Village located in Haripad town of Alappuzha District Kerala.
Iam from Karthikapally - The land of Lord Karthik !
A glimpse of the Subramanya Swami Temple located in Karthikapally.
The Lord who was worshipped by my ancestors for many 500 years !
A BLISS !
BLISS = ANANDA = HIGHER SELF !
A demon by name Idumban was the first MAN who tried to BALANCE KAVADI.
As directed by Lord Shiva ; Sage Agastya wanted Idumban to carry 2 Hills on his shoulders.
Shivagiri which represents Lord Shiva = Masculine Energy
Shaktigiri which represents Goddess Shakti = Feminine Energy
Idumban bore the hills slung across his shoulders in the form of Kavadi one on each side ; when he reached Palani hill he felt fatigued and places the kavadi down at the foot of Palani hill to take rest.
When Idumban resumed his journey he could not lift the kavadi ; Lord Karthikeya approached him and told him that he will carry the burden of BALANCE on behalf of him !
Karthikeya temple is always found on Hill.
At the foot of the hill and sometime midway of the hill - You can find Idumban.
Metaphorically it means at the point you meet with IDUMBAN (Inner Demon) ; Then onwards Lord Karthik will carry the BALANCE OF LORD SHIVA AND GODDESS SHAKTI WITHIN YOURSELF on your behalf.
Balance is difficult - To maintain BALANCE you have to sacrifice ; Sometimes you might have to sacrifice SUCCESS and choose FAILURE only to maintain ULTIMATE BALANCE.
In the year 2018 I was offered with a change in career along with a trip to US.
Security and Protection in exchange of SEX.
The universe offered me with 2 options to CHOOSE : SUCCESS OR FAILURE.
I CHOSE TO FAIL BY REJECTING THE OFFER !
I CHOSE TO FAIL ONLY TO BRING AN ULTIMATE BALANCE IN LIFE.
BALANCE IS THE MOST DIFFICULT TO ACHIEVE.
Idumban is found in all Karthik Temples !
He represents BALANCE !
Pazhani Hill is located in Tamil Nadu.
Described as Palani in Wikipedia ; Palani is pronounced using the retroflex approximant ; spelt as PAZHANI. PAZHANI is a Tamil word.
PAZHAM = WISDOM FRUIT and
NI = YOU.
PAZHAM NI = YOU ARE THE WISDOM FRUIT !
PAZHANI = YOU ARE THE WISDOM FRUIT !
There is a temple on Pazhani Hill dedicated to Lord Karthik.
As informed earlier Human Body has 7 Energy Centre's.
Lord Karthik (Son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Shakti) was born as 6 Different Babies from the first 6 Energy Centres.
1. Muladhara - Energy for Survival
2. Swadishtana - Energy for Sex
3. Manipura - Energy for Power
4. Anahata - Energy for Love
5. Vishuddha - Energy for Truth
6. Ajna - Energy for Intuition ; Perception and Imagination
There are 6 Abodes of Lord Karthik in Tamil Nadu with 6 DIFFERENT NAMES.
Lord Karthik grew up suckling 6 Mothers.
The 6 Mothers represents the 6 Energy Centres.
These Mothers are called "The 6 Karthika Mothers".
Goddess Shakti on the day of (Aadi Karthigai) combines all the 6 different Babies together into one Single Baby and Lord Karthik is born out of Ajna Chakra - The Third Eye of Lord Shiva.
HIGHER SELF = 6TH AND 7TH CHAKRA
6TH CHAKRA = INTUITION / IMAGINATION / PERCEPTION !
Metaphorically it means : When you carry the BURDEN OF BALANCE ; At the 6th Energy Centre you meet with Lord Karthik and it is Lord Karthik who will help you progress from SELF TO HIGHER SELF.
What is the 7th Chakra ?
HIGHER SELF = SAHASRARA CHAKRA = BLISSS = ANANDA !
SECURITY + PROTECTION + WEALTH + POWER IN EXCHANGE OF SEX.
This is called BALANCE by the MATERIALISTIC SOCIETY !
Women who correlate a Man's Masculine power with his ability to provide wealth ; security ; power will always have more than 2 men fighting for her. And she herself is found fighting with other woman claiming that her body is the most sexiest and beautiful.
This is called Stair-ing for Success ! Iam not game for that !
A lot of men and women buy into this lie ; they call this LOVE !
Society expects you to ACCEPT SUCH DEALS - THEY CALL IT SUCCESS !
In other words - YOU CONFIRM TO THE STANDARDS OF SOCIETY.
For me this kind of EXTERNAL SUCCESS = FAILURE OF SELF.
However 90% of woman would ACCEPT SUCH DEALS - THIS IS CALLED STAIRING FOR SUCCESS. SECURITY + PROTECTION + WEALTH + POWER in exchange of SEX.
Maturity IS NOT EQUAL to maintaining silence and accepting the DEALS proposed by ASSHOLES thereby FITTING INTO NORMAL CURVE.
You must FAIL to move from LOWER SELF TO SELF.
Maturity IS NOT EQUAL to influencing A MAN TO NOT DATE A WOMAN WHO IS IN NEED OF PROTECTION POWER AND SECURITY !
You must FAIL to move from SELF TO HIGHER SELF.
MATURITY = NEVER QUESTION THE CHOICE MADE BY YOUR SELF !
BE COMPASSIONATE WITH YOUR SELF !
COMPASSION = ANANDA = BLISS = HIGHER SELF !
MATURITY IS :
You give away FOOD even when you have VERY LITTLE TO EAT !
You give away LOVE even when you don't have ENOUGH LOVE TO RECEIVE !
You give away SECURITY AND PROTECTION even when you don't have enough SECURITY AND PROTECTION with a belief that SELF will PROTECT YOU.
COMPASSION = BLISS = ANANDA = HIGHER SELF = SAHASRARA CHAKRA !
HIGHER SELF is not about STAIRING SUCCESS ;
HIGHER SELF is all about STAIRING FAILURE ;
To move from the Lowest Energy Centre to the Highest Energy Centre you must FAIL MULTIPLE TIMES !
