As per wiki, Dhana Trayodashi (or Dhanteras or धनत्रयोदशी) is the first day of the Indian Diwali and Nepalese Tihar Festival. The festival is known as “Dhanatrayodashi” or “Dhanvantari Trayodashi”. It is celebrated on the thirteenth lunar day of Krishna Paksha (dark fortnight) in the Vikram Samvat Hindu calendar month of Kartika month.

This day is also celebrated for Lord Dhanvantari (Deity who rules Ayurveda) and worshipped on the occasion of Trayodashi, usually, this day is called Dhanvantari Trayodashi. Dhanvantari is considered to be the teacher of all physicians and the originator of Ayurveda.

‘Dhan’ means wealth and ‘Teras’ refers to the thirteenth day of the moon cycle on the thirteenth day of Kartika Krishna Paksha. On this auspicious day, Goddess Laxmi, Lord Dhanvantri and Lord Kuber are worshipped in sthir Lagna at evening time. Traditionally it is considered as to be good in Hindus to buy gold and silver jewelry or utensils as they are karka for Vaibhav.

If we See background history from our Vedic Scriptures                   (Puranas), root of the Dhanteras belong from the Samudra Manthan, It is believed that on this day, Goddess Lakshmi emerged from the ocean along with other precious treasures and pieces of jewelry, during Churning of Ocean. According to the Bhagwat and Visnu Purana, Lord Dhanvantri also emerged from the sea with the pot of Amrit for distributing it to the Devtas.

17th October 2017 (Tuesday)

Dhanteras Puja Muhurta = 19:21 to 20:25

Duration = 1 Hour 4 Mins

Pradosh Kaal = 17:51 to 20:25

Vrishabha Kaal = 19:21 to 21:14

Trayodashi Tithi Starts = 00:26 on 17/Oct/2017

Trayodashi Tithi Ends = 00:08 on 18/Oct/2017

According to Drikpanchang, Lakshmi Poojan on Dhanteras should be done during Pradosh Kaal after sunset and approximately lasts for 2 hours and 24 minutes when Sthir Lagna (Fixed Signs) prevails, Sthir means fixed, not movable as in Sthira Lagna goddess Laxmi sits and stays in your home. Today Sthira Lagna will rise after 19:21 (Taurus Lagna), hence this time is the best for Dhanteras Pujan for Laxmi poojan. 

But before that there we need to light 13 or 1 lamp in the house to keep away the evil and let the good light come in in the form of good health and wellbeing with Goddes Laxmi and Dhanvantri.Dhanteras has nothing to do with the wealth,  but It is more about the health and well being of the house, what happens when “Ashta Laxmi” comes in the house with lord Dhanvantri which brings good health, well being and overall happiness for the whole family members. ‘

It Has a deep story, as why we lit lamp on Dhanteras for Lord Yama; 

” This is explained in the story of the prince and his new wife, which is said to have happened on this day centuries ago. The prince, his new wife and the serpent The 16-year-old son of King Hima was predicted to die on his fourth day of marriage – on Dhanteras – by snake bite. 

But instead of dying, on that date his wife decided she would not let him go to sleep. She laid out all her ornaments as well as pots of gold and silver coins at the entrance to their bedroom and lit lots of lamps. 

She told him stories and sang songs to keep him awake that night and when the God of Death, Yama, came disguised as a snake, he was so dazzled by the glittering precious metals and lights that he climbed on top of the coins and listened to the stories instead. By morning, rather than killing the prince, he slithered away silently because he had missed the chance. The prince was saved by his bride after she baffled the snake with her wealth.”

That’s why in Dhanteras first it involves worshipping of Lord Yama with Deep Daan on this day for the protection of one’s family members and loved ones.After worshipping Lord Yama one should Lit 13 earthen Lamps on the honor of Lord Yama in a southern direction with sesame oil outside the house in evening time in pradosh kaal.

History of Ranbireshwar Temple

The Maharaja Ranbir Singh laid the foundation stone of this temple in 1882 and all the Deities Idols were procured from Rajasthan and all the sacred linga brought from river Narmada and were brought in trains.

Maharaja Ranbir Singh at R.S Pura personally received these. 

Later, these were carried to Jammu central place from Ranbir Singh Pura in a chariot with full devotion. The Maharaja himself pulled strings of the chariot assisted by his troops and thousands of other people singing bhajans in the praise of lord Shiva.

The construction of the temple took two years. In the meantime, the Maharaja Ranbir Singh had fallen ill. He, therefore, asked his younger brother, Raja Ram Singh to perform the inauguration ceremony of the temple.

But due to time and circumstances, it was too not acceptable to the fate of Raja Ram singh. In spite of the best efforts, Shiva linga could not be placed in the vedi . Consequently, the Maharaja Ranbir Singh though ailing, came personally to the temple, prayed to Lord Shiva and then with his own hands, helped by several other Shiva devotees mounted the lingam in the Holy vedi amidst chanting of ‘Har Har Mahadev’.

Local residents believe that Mahraja built this temple when Lord Shiva appeared in his dream. Mahabharat also mentions a story that says Arjun attained his powers after worshipping Jambu Devi in this area.

Here Come Origin of Physics Law of Infinity from Isha Upanishad (IshaVasya Upanishad) part of the (Shukla) Yajurveda :

ॐ पूर्णमदः पूर्णमिदम् पूर्णात् पूर्णमुदच्यते |

पूर्णस्य पूर्णमादाय पूर्णमेवावशिष्यते ||

ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः ||

Om, That is complete, This is complete, From the completeness comes the completeness
(Om=sound of creation, holy word; Poornam=Complete, Adah=that; poornam=complete;poornamadah=that is complete; idam=this; poornamidam=this is complete; poornaat=from completeness; udachyate=comes, rises; poornamudachyate=comes completeness)

If completeness is taken away from completeness, Only completeness remains
(Poorna=complete; asya=from; Poornasya=From completeness; poornamaadaaya=remove completeness; poornam=complete, eva=only; vashishyate=remains; poornamevaavashishṣyate=Only completeness remains)

Explanation : 

Om That (Supreme Brahman) is complete and infinite, is always infinite, and this (Conditioned Brahman) is infinite. The Infinite (conditioned Brahman) proceeds from the infinite (Supreme Brahman).

(Then through Knowledge), Realizing the infinitude of the infinite (Conditioned Brahman), it remains as the infinite (unconditioned Brahman) alone.

Which clearly means god has no ends, it has endless forms and formations and every formations emerged from one and another, even if remove any form it will remain complete and infinite. energy can neither be created nor be destroyed only it changes its shape and size, same goes to the concept of ” Poornam ” – Complete and infinite , everything comes from completeness, what remain will be same. If we can remove one drop of water from ocean, it still have many drops of water, what remain will be endless drops of water. This ocean is like Infinite and complete like almighty too, that clearly defines laws of infinity is itself came from the sound of OM, that is itself complete and infinite in its formation and many of an individual form and sounds can be emerged . Even if we remove one sound from it still many sounds will be there in it.Its just like a nuclear fission reaction and it keep going on inside this OM.

Thus, “Purnamadah Purnamidam” can be interpreted as Supreme Brahman Tatva  and the Individual Tatva are both Complete and infinite and are one form of another, replica of one and another.

” Purnat Purnam Udachyate ” meaning : from this Supreme Brahman Individual Tatva is emerged.

In the same line, Physics Law of Infinity  also says :

It appears, then, that the assumption of nothing implies an infinite, four-dimensional expanse of space and time (not yet spacetime, which is significantly different)— still nothing, to be sure, but at least a somewhat more interesting version of it. To take another step toward existence, it is necessary to examine this curious notion of infinity that is inextricably bound to the assumption of nothing.

This clearly shows Physics originate from Nature laws and principals and acting as another form of Upanishads. Most of the renowned laws of physics came from Upanishads.If one can able to understand Upanishads deeply he can easily understand how science is relative to our scriptures only the nature or form of science is different from one another.

This Short article is for those who use science as an authenticating tool for validating non physical or Metaphysical phenomena of Sciences (i.e Jyotish, Meditation and mundane etc) as Mythological or Imaginary sciences.

Nikola Tesla said it best, “the day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence. To understand the true nature of the universe, one must think it terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”

Science works best when in harmony with nature. If we put these two together, we can discover great technologies that can only come about when the consciousness of the planet is ready to embrace them, like free energy.

Now try to apply same principals in human body in terms of  Frequencies, vibrations and energies, If you want to understand how a physical body work in Physical plane or how you send positive or negative signals  to Universe.This is the way to understand it in simpler form. In Physical reality You are a living light body in Subtle Energy form or living in an Quantum Energy Form like many other Bodies,  you also vibrates certain amount of frequencies to universe and intensity of your actions or Karamas decides how much frequencies you send to universe. your Soul is Quantum energy living inside your Body, your body is form of an Atom attracts or pulls other atoms in your life.
