Guru Purnima

Guru Purnima

 (Website url: http://www.doyoureckon.wordpress.com)

Generally, Hindus and Buddhists traditionally celebrate ‘Guru Purnima’ as a festival to thank teachers. It falls on the full moon day of June – July month (Ashad Month according to Hindu calendar). All the guidance and teachings of Guru is most powerful on the day of Guru Purnima. Teachers are always believed to be the most necessary part of anyone’s life. They are the remover of the darkness. Buddhists celebrate this festival in order to pay respect and gratitude to Lord Buddha. For Hindus, they celebrate to give respect to Sage Vyasa who not only born on this day but also finished writing Brahma Sutras on ashadha sudha padyami.

We all have passed under our teacher’s hands in one or the other way. Sometimes we fail to notice that teachers come in any form and we never know what that teacher is trying to teach us. From infant to aged teacher can be right there near you. If you notice, infants can teach us how to stay calm, peaceful throughout the day like you are in deep meditation. Kids below 4 years teach us how to dance freely like who cares, enjoy each and every moment of life they way they want, for them time is divided only in two i.e. day and night, eat when they are hungry and sleep whenever they are sleepy. After passing 4 year, they will teach us how to see the world in a whole new way, get surprises every minute, enjoy like you have never before just by seeing moving leaves and branches of tree by wind. From 7-8 years they can teach us how to satisfy your curiosity, learn to choose your interesting field, learn new things, follow what teachers said. So this way you never know who is your teacher for any particular thing, you must try to notice their presence throughout your life. Above all these, your parents are your best teachers, good or bad but they will make you best.

 

Try to imagine what would have happen if there were no teachers? You cannot even stand on your feet if there was no one to teach you. Teachers play very important role in our lives. They always help us climb steps. Once I’ve read somewhere that “Teachers call themselves the ladder”, they behave like a ladder step for their students. They ask their students to put their feet on them and go on higher levels.

We should respect them forever because if they were not there, we might be living like zombies. Everyday you should pray to them, you can do sharanagathi (like Hanuman did to Lord Rama) to get help remove every obstacles.

The very famous sloka on guru prayer is :

Guru Brahma Gurur Vishnu
Guru Devo Maheshwaraha
Guru Saakshat Para Brahma
Tasmai Sree Gurave Namaha

Meaning: Guru is verily the representative of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. He creates, sustains knowledge and destroys the weeds of ignorance. I salute such a Guru.

Enjoy teachings of your Guru and all gurus. Respect them in all ways, help them if they need your help at any stage of your life. Sit in their feets and feel like heaven.

I salute the guru and respect my guru with full faith. I was, I am and I will be always thankful to you till my last breath. Thank you so much.

Saint Valentine Day

Saint Valentine Day

 (For website url: http://www.doyoureckon.wordpress.com)

Yes I know I got late for Saint Valentine’s Day and I am sorry for this. But we are here to treat everyday as a Saint Valentine’s Day, full of love and joy and peace.

Let’s go through the reality of today’s world before we talk about love and faith in full fledge. Love, passion, affection, care, faith, satisfaction and relation are some of the words which are very necessary for any living thing in this universe. All these feelings are becoming commercial now a days like pay for every feeling, in most of cases. True love, I mean unconditional love is very rare to find now-a-days and similar for all other types of feeling. At the same time, we can even find people who are still attached with unconditional feelings with one or the other person or living things. If you try to see the ratio, I guess majority of the people are conditionals. Just try to imagine our world without love, care and faith, it will be very scary. It will be like blood rivers flowing everywhere for one’s need and greed. Fights, hatred, etc. will rise more and more day by day.

Thanks to our beloved gods, goddesses, arch angels, teachers and all other good souls who are working hard to keep love and faith in all living beings & things as much as possible even today. We thank you all of them for their blessings.

Saint Valentine’s Day, known as Valentine’s Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine throughout the world, is observed on February 14 each year. A very popular story for St. Valentine is like, he was imprisoned for performing wedding of soldiers who were not allowed to get married and ministering to Christians. It is also said that he healed his jailer’s daughter, Asterius. After around 15th century, people started treating this day as a occassion in which lovers expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards. This day is not just for lovers will to spend their whole life together but it is for everyone who loves someone.

This time we will do something new and exciting. You may find shocking but we are going to make a list of 3 person around you whom you……………… love the most? no ways… list of 3 you hate the most. Let it be a secret. Write it down on a small piece of paper (you cannot edit once you wrote, be genuine). I am sure your heart, mind, your whole system might be feeling weird with those names but don’t worry, within few minutes you will be feeling very relaxed and peaceful. So are you ready with the list? Ok.

Now place that piece of paper in front of you. Sit relaxed with your eyes closed. Imagine those 3 personalities standing in front of you. Raise your hands till your shoulder level with your palms facing outwards. Repeat the following in your mind for those three people. “(With full happiness and a big smile) Hello, I forgive all three of you for any physical and/or mental harm done by you to me from the heart. I ask forgiveness from you all, if I have done any physical and/or mental harm to you and I am very much thankful to receive your forgiveness and accepting my forgiveness. We all are the children of god, God will forgive you and bless you for love, light and power. I bless you for inner peace, love, faith, wealth and all your good wishes. All 3 of you GO IN PEACE, GO IN PEACE, GO IN PEACE. THANK YOU.”

Sit relaxed with your eyes closed for 5 minutes. Open your eyes with big smile… with peace and love.

Tear that piece of paper and flush it off or burn it.

Please do a thank you prayer to god and every good energies which helped you to do this task.

You can do this every alternate day.

Hopefully, there will be a time soon when you will be the most peaceful loving person on this earth. Always remember, one day.. YOU GONNA ROCK!! Cheers!

Love you all and blessings for all your good wishes. Thank you!

Christmas

 (For website url: http://www.doyoureckon.wordpress.com)

Hello all of my lovely readers and fans! I know you all might be bit angry or upset with me for the irregularity on blog, for now, I can only say “I am really sorry”. I was and I am perfectly fine and healthy but some people were in real need of my help for taking care of their loved ones. Hope you all understand that I am not just writing on blog about helping others untill you start feeling loss on your side but I actually do it in my real life, which made me irregular to post on blog.

I hope you all have forgiven me and I am very thankful to you all for the same. Thank you so much!

It’s Christmas time! YAY!! YAY!! For the first time on my blog I am feeling like, what will I write because whole world knows everything about Christmas and Jesus and Mother Mary. Still, I will try to write something, it may not be new stuff but will be fun, I hope.

Christmas is very well known festival celebrated on 25 December throughout the world. The day is said to be the Birthday of Jesus Christ. Different names in different cultures and languages, Jesus, Son of God, Isa, Messiah, healer, a sage, Isu, etc. One who came to earth to take the responsibility of every sin done on earth by human beings and make the earth innocent and pure again. He was crucified at the end and you all might be know, why?

Crucifixion (The act of executing by a method widespread in the ancient world; the victim’s hands and feet are bound or nailed to a cross) might be the worst punishment one can give to siner. And our beloved Christ took responsibility of every sin happened on the earth and according to the accounts of good and bad, untill the person goes through punishement, his/her sin is not balanced. This should be the reason of crucifixion. We might not know the fact but this is what I can figure out. We all should be so much thankful with respect for such a great soul who did this to save humanity and humans on earth. We all love you forever “FATHER”.

Like we always try to see specialties of in terms of food, decorations, dance, etc. There is something unique and good to know about Christmas and that is ‘colors’ used in this festival. Red and Green are traditional colors of Chirstmas. Gold, Silver and White are also used often. Red symbolizes ‘Blood of Jesus’ and Green indicates ‘Eternal Life’. Green tree of Christmas, which never lost its leaves in winter. Other traditional decoration item includes bells, candles, candy canes, stockings, wreaths and angels. Candles on windows shows that Christians believe that Jesus Christ is the light of love, mercy and wisdom for the whole world.

Christmas Eve reminds us of one favorite person especially to kids is our beloved ‘Santa Claus’. People also call him just ‘Santa’ with love and joy. It is believed that he lives in North Pole. Heavy body, wearing red coad with white fur collar and cuffs, black leather belt & boots, white long beard (some believe that he wears spectacles). He fulfills one special wish of kids around the world. There are varied procedures to receive gifts from Santa at different places. Stereotypes about his entry is : Santa rides on a sleigh with 8 reindeers that lands on the building roof, entering through the chimney and having a bag full of gifts. Many of you might not be aware about his reindeers’ name. Eight reindeer of Santa are known as : Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Dunder and Blixem.

Now we are heading towards the favorite part of festival… any guesses…!!?? Yes, traditional food for festival. Cake and candy are well known for christmas celebration. Again, different countries different food to celebrate, we will see some major dishes prepared on Christmas Eve (country wise list can be searched on internet websites).

Roast turkey, chicken and ham
Christmas cake or Christmas pudding
Apple cider
Candy canes
Fruitcake
Potato salad with mayonnaise, hard-boiled eggs and boiled vegetables
Gingerbread
Varied Soup receipes
Marshmallow fruit salad

Hope you all have blessed everyone on this earth specially all the one you hate. During such festivals, powerful good energies comes down to earth in heavy quantity and it really helps to clean yourself and you can even use that energy to bless your good thoughts, goals, sick living beings.

Wishing you a very very happy and prosperous new year ahead. God bless you all to do very good deeds in this coming year and forever. Enjoy with love and happiness with everyone around the world. Merry Christmas!

Lord Ganesha

Lord Ganesha (Elephant Head God)

 (For website url: http://www.doyoureckon.wordpress.com)

Asian culture is full of religious and spiritual stuff wherein you can find varied god and their respective sotries. Lord Ganesha, son of Lord Shiva and Devi Parvati.

Similar to other god even Ganesha has many names, very famous amongst them are: Ganpati, Vinayak, Pillaiyar, Vighneshwara, Dvaimatura (one who has two mothers), Lambodara (one who has a pot belly, or, literally, one who has a hanging belly), Gajanana (having the face of an elephant), etc. List of 108 names of Ganesha is shown at the end of this article.

Ganesha is widely worshiped for many purposes like removing of obstacles, knowledge, wealth, power, etc. as he is the elder son of the creator, the destroyer Lord Shiva. He is worshiped in many different parts of the world like India, Nepal, United States, Canada, Mauritius, Singapore, Thailand, Cambodia, Burma and Fiji.

Apart from Indians and specially Hindus, the story behind the elephant head is rarely known to others. Let us go through a quick short part of it. Mother of Lord Ganesha, Devi Parvati set him to stand guard at her door while she bathed. Lord Shiva returned and, as Ganesha didn’t know him, he didn’t allow him to enter. Lord Shiva became enraged, severed the head of the child and entered his house. Parvati got angry on Lord Shiva and asked him give her son back alive. Lord Shiva promised her and said that he will fix the head of any one who will come first on the way, suddenly an elephant came on the way and Lord Shiva fixed the head of an elephant in place of Ganesha’s head. In this way, Lord Ganesha came to be depicted as the elephant-headed God.

During Ganesh Chaturthi festival people buy Lord Ganesha idols to make them sit in their particular premises or nearby house/office with an open invitation to all. Prayers and offerings are given to all during the rituals everyday untill the date of Ganesh Visarjan (Ganesh Visarjan – People carry Ganesh idol to the water resources i.e. river, sea, etc. and put it in the water). Ganesh Visarjan ceremony is very glamours, full of traditional music, dance, joy & happiness all around. During Ganesh Visarjan you can also find feeling of losing someone you love the most, people request to the god to come back soon.

In the field of spiritual practices, it is said that Ganesh resides in the first chakra called Muladhar Chakra (Basic Chakra). Muladhar chakra is the chakra for manifestation or outward expansion and in other teachings it is also believed that muladhar chakra is for prosperity and will to live.

One can chant the following mantra as prayer:

• Vakra-Tunndda Maha-Kaaya Surya-Kotti Samaprabha Nirvighnam Kuru Me Deva Sarva-Kaaryessu Sarvadaa.
• Om Gum Ganpataye Namah Om
• Om Shree Ganashai Namah Om

Rosh Hashanah

This time we are going to know something which might be least known to people around the world (except for Jewish people). “Rosh Hashanah” Jewish new year is on 17-18 September this year. It is the first of the High Holy Days or Yamim Nora’im (“Days of Awe”) which usually occur in the early autumn. Rosh Hashanah is celebrated on the first two days of Tishrei (said to be the first month of civil year). It is described in the Torah as Yom Teru’ah (a day of sounding the Shofar).

Shofar

Shofar is a horn, traditionally that of a sheep (ram), discussing shofar is another wide topic which needs time to learn and explain, so I will try to cover it later.

Prayers performed on this new year day called piyyuttim, another special prayer-book is also used known as mahzor.

Rosh Hashanah Symbolic Items

Moving towards the details of something required by every living being, Special Food of the festival. Apple and Honey includes in the symbolic food list of Rosh Hashanah, to symbolize a sweet new year. Next important symbolic food is fish head to symbolize the ‘head’ of the year. Some communities hold a “Rosh Hashanah seder” (seder – (Judaism) the ceremonial dinner on the first night (or both nights) of Passover) during which prayers are recited over a variety of symbolic dishes. Blessings start with a phrase – “Yehi Ratzon” (“May it be thy will.”). The Yehi Ratson platter may include apples (dipped in honey, baked or cooked as a compote called mansanada); dates; pomegranates; black-eyed peas; pumpkin-filled pastries called rodanchas; leek fritters called keftedes de prasa; beets; and a whole fish with the head intact. It is also common to eat stuffed vegetables called legumbres yaprakes.

Prayer & Greetings

Just like every religion and language, Jewish people have their traditional greetings:

• On the first night of Rosh Hashanah after the evening prayer, it is the Ashkenazi and Hasidic custom to wish Le’shana Tova Tikoteiv Vetichoteim (Le’Alter LeChaim Tovim U’Leshalom) which is Hebrew for “May you (immediately) be inscribed and sealed for a Good Year (and for a Good and Peaceful Life)”.

• Shana Tova (pronounced [?a’na to’va]) is the traditional greeting on Rosh Hashanah which in Hebrew means “A Good Year.”

• Shana Tova Umetukah is Hebrew for “A Good and Sweet Year.”

• Ketiva ve-chatima tovah which translates as “May You Be Written and Sealed for a Good Year.”

• The formal Sephardic greeting is Tizku leshanim rabbot (“may you merit many years”), to which the answer is ne’imot ve-tovot (“pleasant and good ones”). Less formally, people wish each other “many years” in the local language.

Let us greet all people a very happy rosh hashanah and god bless all for all their good wishes. Have a joyful, prosperous life. Amen!

Full Moon

 (For website url: http://www.doyoureckon.wordpress.com)

Look up there in the sky at night, a big circle, bright & some random designs. Yes, we are talking about the moon. People of every religion and country know about full moon and new moon. Varied beliefs, as usual and we know that, some people believe it to be very good and some find it bad.

Since ancient times, people used to pray to the moon. Their knowledge was not so good those days and moon was considered as a heavenly body. There were many religious and spiritual rituals to be performed at places around the world.

There are many effects of the full moon on us, it can be related to your feelings, emotions and desires. For normal people it is like crisis period but for spiritual and/or religious people it is the period of opportunity. On the full moon day the cosmic energies are on the highest levels and if not handled carefully it might create crisis.

If we talk about crisis, one can feel drowsy, over-excited or aggressive. If you have noticed, on the full moon day possibilities may arise of road accidents, diseases, fights (for minor issues) and many similar problems. When we say problems it can also be of lost password. An alcoholic will get more thoughts about need to drink more and more. A gambler will keep on betting even if he is losing every bet.

If we talk about spiritual/religious person, it is possible to awaken thoughts about spirituality that lie in someone’s mind to increase spiritual practice and use the heightened mind activity. Such person will do powerful meditations, prayers, visit religious places, do rituals and carry out donation and help to needy people. This heavy and dense energy will give fast and fruitful reaction for this good work. A writer will get very nice subject ideas and good thoughts to finish it. A donor will try to help as many people as possible.

To Do:

• Early morning prayers
• Chanting of God name (as per religion)
• Chanting of your spiritual guru or your favorite teacher (spiritual protection)
• Meditation (if you know any, CLICK HERE FOR MEDITATION HELP)
• Physical help to needy (serve at hospital, help aged people in their work, etc…)
• Donation (for food, medicines, clothes, etc…)
• Stay in good mood as much as possible (CLICK HERE FOR IDEAS)
• Spend more time with kids below 3 and people above 60

Not To Do:

• Intake of alcohol, tobacco, cigarette and any hallucinogenic products
• Listening of rock, hard rock, metal and similar music types
• Fights for minor issues
• Important decisions
• Buying and/or selling of properties/costly items
• Fast driving
• Going on heights
• Deep water diving/swimming
• Stay with more than 2 person for more than a couple of hours

Let us try a small yet effective full mood meditation for peace, happiness, silence, health and love. (If you don’t find it comfortable just stop meditation, open your eyes and sit relax and take plain water bath)

Very slowly take salt water bath, wear nothing but white cotton clothes with head cover, sit alone in a peaceful place, minimum light (not darkness). Do some light physical exercise, even some body shaking will do.

(Set an alarm for 15 to 20 minutes to bring you back in your body, place the device at a fair distance)

Close your eyes and chant “OM” for around 11 times to purify your whole system and to gain peaceful mind. Pray to god for divine guidance, protection, happiness, love, prosperity during the meditation. Imagine the bright white glorious moon shining above your head. See the smiling moon. The light rays are so alive dancing. It is traveling downwards to embrace you. Hold you tight with love and care. Feel the touch very cool, yet warm. It is entering through your skin going through every pores, every cell; making you energetic, peaceful, happy and weightless. You are the moon light. Let go your soul with the moon wherever it wants.

On the alarm bell, very gently, slowly come back to your body. Slowly move your fingers. Open your eyes with big smile. Give blessings to whole world for divine health, guidance, protection, prosperity. Give blessings to co-workers and neighbours. Give blessings to your family.

Sit in normal position for a minute. Stand up and do some shaking, jump for a couple of seconds to release any excessive energy. Stay away from your family, children & aged people for around 1 or 2 hours. Do not take bath for next 12 to 24 hours.

Try to notice what happened during your meditation and note it down. Share it via comments to know more about your experiences.

DO NOT FALL INTO ANY RUMORS ABOUT FULL MOON AND DON’T PANIC!

Think Positive?

 (For website url: http://www.doyoureckon.wordpress.com)

In this topic, I am not going to give you any positive thinking quotes or any philosophical lecture. I am just trying to make you understand why we should think positive and how it can help us.

Hello readers, How are you? What’s new?

Ever thought of answering above mentioned question from your heart, 100% true? I get a big smile often when I get chance to ask this question to someone randomly. If you want to feel the same let’s try it now. Imagine that we (you and me) just started a chat online or in person, (You)Hi – (Me)Hey, how are you? – (You)If it’s a rule to give 100% true answer, what will be your answer?

Now a days, it is fact that we often try to hide our true feelings thinking that others will not like it. We always forget an old saying – “Shared joy is a double joy; shared sorrow is half a sorrow”. In our full life time why we cannot spend a day or a week or a month full of fun and happiness, why we cannot give true reply. I always believe that all these problem arise because of ourselves only. We have lost our capacity to manage things, we are not interested to sort it out. I am sure you all get advice for any problems you have in a positive way, people around you will always ask you to think positive but what if they are on our place? Time by time all these things appears too big to handle and a person will get ready for the last two options – Sort it out or die.

While talking to many of the religious people who has thousands of fans and devotees, I fall in a mess with them often. They always say that everything is decided by the almighty lord, we are just the players. I guess you all believe in karma/deed and its effects. My point of argument is – “If everything is decided, who are we to bother, why to waste our precious life in tension of money, people, life, comforts, etc.”, on any kind of failures we hear people saying that, maybe I was not destined for it or it was not in my destiny. This means that if you get succeed, it’s your hard work & skills – if you fail, it’s your karma/deed or destiny, I really don’t think it’s fair, what you say?

I am not asking you to stop your mind and start living like a primitive man but treat yourself. Thinking positive is not a solution for all your problems but it will at least make you feel relaxed. You cannot apply magnet rule, here it is reverse – “Positive attracts positive and negative attracts negative”. If you ever feel like testing it, I would say… mmmmm… yes go for it and see what happens sooner or later.

Thinking positive is a good way to make your tomorrow better than today, I know it’s not so easy to think positive when you get your cheque bounced or you are in some serious problem but what if I can try to give you a way out. Let us go through a situation with a question, if you get a favorable answer, you win and if you don’t, my way will surely guide you to stay relaxed. Suppose, you are facing a financial problem, you have already tried your best but there is no result. After certain time you will start thinking negative, nothing is good in my life, I always have this kind of problems, this & that. Now in this situation, try to answer my question – “Can you change your condition by increasing your tension, thinking negative, live with a dull sad face 24×7? If your answer is “Yes” then you are the winner and you have some god gifted magical powers. If your answer is “No” then why you are wasting your time with that, keep on trying to sort it out with good mood and with your normal life.

When ever you fall in such situations, just try to ask yourself a serious question – “What can I do in this situation?” If you get a proper way out, go for it and finish the problem OR enjoy your life with regular efforts to come out of the problem.

Just a day before when I was writing this, I was at a hospital and I saw something was written on a paper behind a door, that was very similar to what I am trying to make you understand here. It says – For every questions you have in your life, God have only 3 answers; (1)Yes – (2)No – (3)I have planned something else for you.

I never say that one should not think negative because I totally believe that if there were no negative thoughts, parachutes have never been invented.

Enjoy life and always remember that problem is a part of every living being. Even our God faced so many problems during their human incarnation. Without a problem or tension your life will be like a journey without a destination.

 (For website url: http://www.doyoureckon.wordpress.com)

Some of my blog readers wanted me to post some pictures and explanation on how angels work, how they might be seen on earth (only highly clairvoyant people can see all these things) and many other similar questions of curiosity.

Angels like us are on the job of almighty lord working for us but they never take holiday. They can be found anywhere on earth in any gesture, it’s like you are sitting somewhere with some problem and you realize that an angel is sitting next to you listening you waiting for you to finish your prayer and feel relaxed. Some angels are like our police man who will be sitting in the middle of city to take care of people and record anything bad someone is doing to others. Angels appear anywhere according to their need at places, it can be for healing, protection, prosperity, power, good work, etc.

Check out the pictures and you will completely understand their role.

ARCHANGEL GABRIEL

A very gentle smile to the readers. It might be boring line to read -“Today we are going to know something very interesting” because we always know interesting things over here. Anyways, mmmm… let me ask you a question – “How do you react a knock! knock! sound on your door? silly question for normal, common people but for the one who feel, notice and want to enjoy each moment, this question is full of excitement with varied facial expressions depending upon the moments one is waiting for. I said varied expressions because sometimes you are waiting for some guest, expected people, sometimes it is about unexpected, unwanted and sometimes it can be a delivery man with your favorite (yummy!!) food.

In our lifetime, we often go through certain situations where we say – “Oh, I wish there is someone to help me out with this situation”, “Someone please ask that person to answer my call”, “Someone please forward my message to that particular person”, etc. I am sure, at least once in your lifetime you have noticed that you were waiting for certain news, expecting someone, waiting for someone to answer your call or any other way you are using to communicate and out-of-blue your wished is ful-filled!!? And the expression on your face – “Yes! I just felt so good!”

Well, our beloved god is just super intelligent, super care taker (I guess no need to elaborate his qualities, we all know that) did a great job for his children by creating another Archangel known as (any guesses!?), yes you are right, “Archangel Gabriel“.

The name means “Hero of God“, “God is my strength“. Many of the beliefs says that Archangel Gabriel radiates feminine energy and later on it is declared that Archangel Gabriel is in male form. In my “Archangel” post I have already mentioned that – “Here, we are just going to learn about the known facts without falling into any messy debates or arguments.” (if I forget to mention this line in any of my upcoming posts, please forgive me and avoid any arguments), so we are going to describe this Archangel as a masculine identity.

Archangel Gabriel, who typically serves as a messenger to humans from God, also known as Angel of Revelation and Spirit of Truth, the exalted Messenger of God. It is also said that Gabriel announced the births of both John the Baptist and Jesus Christ. He has a copper halo that matches the trumpet he often carries. Many times when comes to us, he might be holding a lily or be wearing a robe of light covered with a fleur-de-lis (Plants with sword-shaped leaves and erect stalks bearing bright-colored flowers composed of three petals and three drooping sepals) design. Archangel Gabriel and his legion of angels always help people whose life purpose includes communication, teaching, writing, acting, photography, speaker role, stamp collector, etc. He is ready to help you for any of your career problems or situations where you have stuck yourself, you can call upon him to stay with you when you are going for any kind of interview or wanted to discuss about your promotion. He also helps with conception and childbirth, problems conceiving and maintaining pregnancy, you can ask for Archangel Gabriel’s intervention. You won’t believe he can literally “breathe new life” into stale (like spoiled or messy) relationships and business and he will help you have new creative ideas and opportunities to get you moving smoothly.

Archangel Gabriel will bring joy and grace, clarity, he will open you upto sympathy, understanding and purify any negative emotions and beliefs. He will teach you to take the time to appreciate all the good and bad moments in our daily routines. Find your purpose of life with his help. He can make you go brighter for every important communications you make, develop your intuition. He serves as the announcer and harbinger of all good news and helpful information. With his super power he will give you all the news of upcoming events, changes and opportunities in your life. Archangel Gabriel is also said to be the in charge of dreams and prophecy (Knowledge of the future, usually said to be obtained from a divine source) and he can make you understand your puzzled dream. You can work with him to develop your psychic powers. Archangel Gabriel is also the bringer of resurrection and the knowledge that nothing ever dies but simply changes to a different form and is born anew in other realms of existence, he has been known to bring messages of good cheer and hope as well as words and dreams of warnings. Think carefully about what you are say to others and what they are saying to you. Do these words serve you or hinder you in your life? Are they positive and uplifting or do they focus on negativity and lack? Like all the Angels, Gabriel will never judge you for anything you think or say! Yet he will urge you to focus on those things that bring you a sense of joy, peace and gratitude for the great mystery that is all of life.

According to Muslim religion and beliefs, Gabriel dictated the Koran to Mohammed over a period of 23 years and also accompanied the Prophet on his Night Journey.

Alright! Alright! I am coming to your favorite part – “Know his presence”.

Car horns you hear with increasing frequency – be alert for the good news coming your way which is very important if you act upon it.

“Increasing E-mail list”, e-mail with very similar content in all of them, e.g. regular e-mail about getting paid, promotions or sometimes even about poor health. Anything and everything comes to you as a message is from Archangel Gabriel and the Universe!

Starting of certain thoughts popping into your mind that can surprise or even shock you, ask for further validation and simply watch to see what comes. Try to notice what others say to you that fits with what you have been thinking about. When you ask Gabriel for confirmation that what you have been pondering is true he always acts swiftly so heads up!

You may feel more inclined to spend time in meditation or reading inspirational books. Gabriel is encouraging you to do so for he knows how important it really is to fill our minds with positive words for they shall spill out into every aspect of your life.

Archangel Gabriel loves affirmations for they inspire us, fill our minds and hearts with hope for a more positive present and future, and support us manifesting the most wonderful life we can think of! You may choose to read a few pages of an inspirational book or similar content from other medias each day, one of my favourite things to do. It is amazing, how one’s life can change for the better when we focus on the good that life has to offer! (JUST LIKE THAT!!)

You can also write down a single question that is most pressing for you at this time. At the end of each day, reflect back at all that happened. Was there anything that sticks out as a possible answer? Chances are you will begin to note a thread that runs through your day, this is Gabriel’s way of giving you your answer!

Women hoping for heavenly assistance in trying to conceive children have reported benefits from keeping an Angel Gabriel novena candle burning in the home. (Lighting-up a candle is always a harmless thing to do, I have not tested this so cannot talk about its effects. If I found it ok, I will update the conclusions here)

It is my hope that the following prayer to the Archangel Gabriel will be of use to all, and will find service among those who request the intercession of this great and powerful heavenly being.

PRAYER TO ARCHANGEL GABRIEL

Alleged to Help in Communication and Conception

Beloved Gabriel,
Glorious Messenger of the Court of Heaven
and most excellent Saint and Archangel,
first minister of God,
interpreter for Daniel the Prophet,
instructor of Zachary the Priest,
enunciator to our Holy Mother Mary,
bringer of the word of truth:

Please favor my devotions and
help me to love and serve you,
and, through you,
to love and serve the Lord.
O Gabriel Archangel,
grant me what I most earnestly desire
and humbly ask for with this prayer,
for the honor, glory, and fulfillment
of my soul.
Amen.

When a divine spirit grants your wish, it is customary, to give an offering of some kind in return. Because Archangel Gabriel, the Messenger of God, is generally depicted with white lilies or a trumpet horn, it is considered appropriate to make an offering of white flowers or to play music before the altar a thank-offering.

Prayer for those who are going for any kind of interviews or going to work in any fields: (short & capacity prayer given below.

Beloved Gabriel, please come to me now and help me express myself in the best light. Thank you!
