Water Wheel was a common invention in last Century before the advent of Pump Motors .
Going into same circle again and again of long chain of buckets as well as a circular routine path for Animals and the Man which is similar to our modern day routine Life .
What exactly is the Purpose of Bucket list ?
To Learn New things , visit New Places , the Goals we want to achieve, Dreams we want to fulfill, and life experiences we wish to experience during our life time .
We prepare our Long list of Buckets , some fulfilled and some empty to be filled, act as checklist .
As this Buckets get loaded with our ever ending wish list , many times it becomes a burden on back of our Mind but burden was not the purpose of Bucket list.
Wheel of life fills and empties everyone’s Bucket list , be Happy in between this cycle is True Purpose of Bucket List.
Diwali is a Festival of Light in India , this year it is celebrated Today 27 October 2019 . As per Mythological Story of Epic ” RAMAYANA ” Lord Ram Chandra Returns to His Kingdom after Victory over Demon King Ravana.
If I interpret with Hidden Wisdom and Scientific and spiritual Knowledge of this Epic Story . It is a Story for Masses to understand Righteous way of Life and know the path of Self Knowledge and Enlightenment.
As this was a Night without Moon , so whole Kingdom was lit with Small Earthen clay lamps , named as “Diya ” Hence this Festival of Lights is given the Names as ” DIWALI or DIPAWALI ”
The Essence of this Festival is in this Prayer of few thousands years before . It is from the Shanthi Mantra (Prayer for peace) from The Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upanishad which is one of the older, primary Upanishad (Vedanta). which is also my prayer of Everyday even in modern Times.
ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय । तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय । मृत्योर्मा अमृतं गमय । ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः ॥
Om Asato Maa Sad-Gamaya | Tamaso Maa Jyotir-Gamaya | Mrtyor-Maa Amrtam Gamaya | Om Shaantih Shaantih Shaantih ||
Meaning: 1: Om, (O Lord) Keep me not in (the Phenomenal World of) Unreality, but make me go towards the Reality (of Eternal Self), 2: Keep me not in (the Ignorant State of) Darkness, but make me go towards the Light (of Spiritual Knowledge), 3: Keep me not in (the World of) Mortality, but make me go towards the World of Immortality (of Self-Realization), 4: Om, Peace, Peace, Peace.
