Savitri Devi Mukherji (born September 30, 1905, 2 and a half months premature, weighing only 930 grams – October 22, 1982) was the pseudonym of the Greek-French writer Maximiani Portas, a prominent proponent of both animal rights and Nazism, who served the Axis cause during World War II by spying on Allied forces in India.. She wrote about animal rights movements and was a leading light of the Nazi underground during the 1960s...An admirer of German National Socialism, Savitri Devi was also an animal-rights activist who authored the book The Impeachment of Man in 1959 and was a proponent of Hinduism and Nazism, synthesizing the two, proclaiming Adolf Hitler to have been sent by Providence, much like an avatar of the Hindu god Vishnu...
In April 1953, she obtained a Greek passport in her maiden name in order to re-enter Germany, and she began a pilgrimage, as she called it, of Nazi "holy" sites. She flew from Athens to Rome then travelled by rail over the Brenner Pass into "Greater Germany", which she regarded as "the spiritual home of all racially conscious modern Aryans". She travelled to a number of sites significant in the life of Adolf Hitler and the NSDAP (German Nazi Party), as well as German nationalist and heathen monuments, as recounted in her 1958 book Pilgrimage.Savitri Devi became friends with Hans-Ulrich Rudel, and completed her manuscript of The Lightning and the Sun at his home in March 1956..The term Black Sun , also referred to as the Sonnenrad (Sun Wheel), is a symbol of esoteric and occult significance...During the 3rd Reich Wewelsburg Renaissance castle located in the northeast of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany,became the representative and ideological center of the order of the SS. Heinrich Himmler, the leader of the SS, wanted to establish the "Center of the New World"...The North-Tower of the castle was to be the center of a planned circular estate, 1.27 kilometres in diameter...According to the architects, the axis of the North-Tower was to be the actual Center of the World..Through his introductions she was able to meet a number of Nazi émigrés in Spain and the Middle East. In 1957 she stayed with Johannes von Leers in Egypt as she traveled across the Middle East when returning home to New Delhi, including stops in Beirut, Damascus, Baghdad, Tehran, and Zahedan.. In 1961 she stayed with Otto Skorzeny in Madrid...The term Black Sun may originate with the mystical "Central Sun" in Helena Blavatsky's Theosophy. This invisible or burnt out Sun (Nazi mysticism) symbolizes an opposing force or pole...Others claim that a fight between the new and the old Suns was decided 330,000 years ago ,and that Santur had been the source of power of the Hyperboreans...
After retiring from teaching in 1970, Savitri Devi spent 9 months at the Normandy home of close friend Françoise Dior while working on her memoirs...Concluding that her pension would go much further in India, she flew from Paris to Bombay on 23 June 1971..In August she moved to New Delhi, where she lived alone, with a number of cats and at least one cobra..

The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), known colloquially as the Hare Krishna movement or Hare Krishnas, is a Gaudiya Vaishnava religious organisation.. It was founded in 1966 in New York City by A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.. Its core beliefs are based on traditional Indian scriptures, such as the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam and the Bhagavad-gītā, which date back 1,000–2,000 years (scholarly) or 5,000 years (traditional). The distinctive appearance of the movement and its culture come from the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition, which has had adherents in India since the late 15th century and Western converts since the early 1900s in America, and in England in the 1930s..
The International Society for Krishna Consciousness was formed to spread the practice of bhakti yoga, in which aspirant devotees (bhaktas) dedicate their thoughts and actions towards pleasing the Supreme Lord, Krishna.. ISKCON today is a worldwide confederation of more than 400 centres, including 60 farm communities, some aiming for self-sufficiency, 50 schools and 90 restaurants...

The Great Red Spot (GRS) is a persistent anticyclonic storm, 22° south of Jupiter's equator; Earth observations establish a minimum storm lifetime of, variously, 183 years to possibly 348 years.. The storm is large enough to be visible through Earth-based telescopes, first being observed by Samuel Heinrich Schwabe in 1831 as a drawing of the gap formed around it, and possibly even earlier, as a "permanent spot" was described by Gian Domenico Cassini between 1665 and 1713. The actual spot has been continually described and observed since Carr Walter Pritchett did so in 1878...The bindu is the point around which the mandala is created and represents the manifestation of the universe...The bindu is often merged with seed, or sperm and ova...
Infrared data have long indicated that the Great Red Spot is colder (and thus, higher in altitude) than most of the other clouds on the planet; the cloudtops of the GRS are about 8 km above the surrounding clouds. Furthermore, careful tracking of atmospheric features revealed the spot's counterclockwise circulation as far back as 1966—observations dramatically confirmed by the first time-lapse movies from the Voyager flybys... The Yoga Chudamani Upanishad states that the bindu exists as a duality, with a white bindu representing shukla (sperm) and a red bindu representing maharaj (menses)...The white bindu resides in the bindu visarga and is related to Shiva and the Moon, while the red bindu resides in the muladhara chakra and is related to Shakti and the Sun, it is the joining of these 2 parts that results in the ascension of the kundalini to the sahasrara...
Many famous Hindu and similar Jain as well as Buddhist temples have been built as symbolic representations of this mountain. The highest point (the finial bud) on the pyatthat, a Burmese-style multi-tiered roof, represents Mount Meru.The Suryasiddhanta mentions that Mt Meru lies in 'the middle of the Earth' ("Bhugol-madhya") in the land of the Jambunad (Jambudvip). Narpatijayacharyā, a 9th-century text, based on mostly unpublished texts of Yāmal Tantr, mentions "Sumeruḥ Prithvī-madhye shrūyate drishyate na tu" ('Su-meru is heard to be in the middle of the Earth, but is not seen there')..Mount Meru of Hindu traditions has clearly mythical aspects, being described as 84,000 Yojan high (which is around 1,082,000 km (672,000 mi), or 85 times the Earths's diameter), and having the Sun along with all its planets in the Solar System revolve around it as one unit...Mount Meru is also the abode of Lord Brahma and the Demi-Gods (Dev)...
Sumeru is the polar center of a mandala-like complex of seas and mountains. The square base of Sumeru is surrounded by a square moat-like ocean, which is in turn surrounded by a ring (or rather square) wall of mountains, which is in turn surrounded by a sea, each diminishing in width and height from the one closer to Sumeru. There are 7 seas and 7 surrounding mountain-walls, until one comes to the vast outer sea which forms most of the surface of the world, in which the known continents are merely small islands. The known world, which is on the continent of Jambudvipa, is directly south of Sumeru...
Mount Meru is an active stratovolcano located 70 kilometres (43 mi) west of Mount Kilimanjaro in the nation of Tanzania..Its Fertile slopes rise above the surrounding savanna and support a Forest that hosts diverse wildlife, including nearly 400 Species O-f Birds, Monkeys and Leopards.A renowned Indian scholar named Vasubhandhu ( 4th 5th century CE) provided an elaborate description of the Meru-centered cosmos in the Abhidharmakosa...Outside, in a great salty ocean, are the 4 continents and 8 subcontinents (2 out at sea, left and right of each of the continents)..

Abhay Charanaravinda Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (अभय चरणारविन्द भक्तिवेदान्त स्वामी प्रभुपादः,) (14 November - aged 81 1977 ) was a Gaudiya Vaishnava teacher and the founder-acharya of (ISKCON), commonly known as the "Hare Krishna Movement"..His mission was to propagate Gaudiya Vaishnavism, a form of Hinduism (a term which Bhaktivedanta Swami frequently denied) that had been taught to him by his guru, Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati, throughout the world..

Born – 1 September 1896, the day after Janmastami, one of the most important Vaishnava holidays, in a humble house in the Tollygunge suburb of Calcutta, he was named Abhay Charan, "one who is fearless, having taken shelter at Lord Krishna's feet." Since he was born on the day of Nandotsava (" celebration of Nanda," Krishna's father, a traditional festival in honour of Krishna's birth) he was also called Nandulal. His parents, Sriman Gour Mohan De and Srimati Rajani De, were devout Vaishnavas (devotees of Vishnu). In accordance with Bengali tradition, his mother had gone to the home of her parents for the delivery, and only a few days later Abhay returned with parents to his home at 151 Harrison Road in Calcutta, where he was brought up and educated...
Once ISKCON was more established in the USA a small number of devotees from the San Francisco temple were sent to London, England. After a short time in London they came into contact with The Beatles, of whom George Harrison took the greatest interest, spending a significant time speaking with Bhaktivedanta Swami and producing a record with members of the later London Radha Krsna Temple..It is believed that Bhaktivedanta Swami's most significant contribution are his books... Within the final 25 of his life Bhaktivedanta Swami translated over 60 volumes of classic Vedic scriptures (such as the Bhagavad Gita and the Srimad Bhagavatam) into the English language..By journeying to USA, he was attempting to fulfill the wish of his guru, possible only by the grace of "his dear Lord Krishna".. It is in July 1966 "global missionary Vaishnavism" was brought to the West by Bhaktivedanta Swami, "the soul agent", founding the International Society for Krishna Consciousness in New York City. Bhaktivedanta Swami spent much of the last decade of his life setting up the institution of ISKCON. Since he was the Society's leader, his personality and management were responsible for much of ISKCON's growth and the reach of his mission...

Hanuman is a Hindu deity, who was an ardent devotee of Rama according to the Hindu legends. He is a central character in the Indian epic Ramayana and its various versions. He also finds mentions in several other texts, including Mahabharata, the various Puranas and some Jain texts. A vanara (ape-like humanoid), Hanuman participated in Rama's war against the demon king Ravana. Several texts also present him as an incarnation of Lord Shiva. He is also considered the son of Vayu, who according to several stories, played a role in his birth..The Sanskrit texts mention several legends about how Hanuman got his name... One legend is that Indra, the king of the deities, struck Hanuman's jaw during his childhood .. The child received his name from the Sanskrit words Hanu ("jaw") and -man (or -mant, "prominent" or "disfigured")..The name thus means "one with prominent or disfigured jaw".. Another theory says the name derives from the Sanskrit words Han ("killed" or "destroyed") and maana (pride); the name implies "one whose pride was destroyed"..

Lions are apex and keystone predators, although they scavenge as opportunity allows.. While lions do not typically hunt humans, some have been known to do so... Sleeping mainly during the day, lions are primarily nocturnal, although bordering on crepuscular in nature...

The Mahabharata or Mahābhārata (Sanskrit: महाभारतम्, Mahābhāratam) is 1 of the 2 major Sanskrit epics of ancient India, the other being the Ramayana..Besides its epic narrative of the Kurukshetra War and the fates of the Kaurava and the Pandava princes, the Mahabharata contains much philosophical and devotional material, such as a discussion of the 4 "goals of life" or purusharthas (12.161). Among the principal works and stories that are a part of the Mahabharata are the Bhagavad Gita, the story of Damayanti, an abbreviated version of the Ramayana, and the Rishyasringa, often considered as works in their own right...
The epic employs the story within a story structure, otherwise known as frametales, popular in many Indian religious and non-religious works. It is recited to the King Janamejaya who is the great-grandson of Pandava prince Arjuna, by sage Vaisampayana, a disciple of Vyasa. The recitation of Vaisampayana to Janamejaya is then recited again by a professional storyteller named Ugrasrava Sauti, many years later, to an assemblage of sages performing the 12-year sacrifice for King Saunaka Kulapati in the Naimisha Forest..
Jaya, the core of the Mahabharata is structured in the form of a dialogue between Kuru King Dhritarashtra and Sanjaya, his advisor and chariot driver..Sanjaya narrates each incident of the Kurukshetra War, fought in 18 days, as and when it happened. Dhritarashtra sometimes asks questions and doubts, and sometimes laments, sensing the imminent destruction that would be caused by the war, to his sons, friends and kinsmen...
In the beginning, Sanjaya gives a description of the continents of the Earth, and of the other planets. He focuses on the Indian Subcontinent and gives an elaborate list of hundreds of kingdoms, tribes, provinces, cities, towns, villages, rivers, mountains, forests, etc. of the (ancient) Indian Subcontinent (Bhārata Varsha).. He also explains about the military formations adopted by each side on each day, the death of each hero and the details of each war-racings.. Some 18 chapters of Vyasa's Jaya constitutes the Bhagavad Gita, the sacred text of the Hindus. Thus, this work of Vyasa, called Jaya deals with diverse subjects like geography, history, warfare, religion and morality. According to the Mahabharata itself, Vaisampayana's Bharata expanded on the story, with Vyasa's Jaya embedded within it. Ugrasrava eventually composed the final Mahabharata, with Vyasa's Jaya and Vaisampayana's Bharata embedded in the epic...

The European Organization for Nuclear Research , known as CERN or Cernis an international organization whose purpose is to operate the world's largest particle physics laboratory. Established in 1954, the organization is based in the northwest suburbs of Geneva on the Franco–Swiss border, (46°14′3″N 6°3′19″E) and has 20 European member states...
CERN's main function is to provide the particle accelerators and other infrastructure needed for high-energy physics research - as a result, numerous experiments have been constructed at CERN following international collaborations. It is also the birthplace of the World Wide Web..The main site at Meyrin has a large computer centre containing powerful data-processing facilities, primarily for experimental-data analysis; because of the need to make these facilities available to researchers elsewhere, it has historically been a major wide area networking hub..
The LHC tunnel is located 100 metres underground, in the region between the Geneva International Airport and the nearby Jura mountains. It uses the 27 km circumference circular tunnel previously occupied by LEP which was closed down in November 2000 - CERN's existing PS/SPS accelerator complexes will be used to pre-accelerate protons which will then be injected into the LHC...Since its foundation by 12 members in 1954, CERN regularly accepted new members. All new members have remained in the organisation continuously since their accession, except Spain and Yugoslavia. Spain first joined CERN in 1961, withdrew in 1969, and rejoined in 1983. Yugoslavia was a founding member of CERN but left in 1961. Initially only West Germany was a (founding) member of CERN.. Of the 20 members, 18 are EU Member states 2 are not...

In the epic Mahābhārata, Draupadi, also known as (Agnijyotsna) Kṛṣṇā draupadī (Devanagari: कृष्णा द्रौपदी ) is the "emerged" daughter of King Drupada of Panchāla and the wife of the 5 Pandavas. When Yudhisthira becomes the king of Hastinapura at the end of the war, Draupadi (again) becomes the queen of Indraprastha. She is also variously referred as Kṛṣṇā (or Krishnaa, meaning one of darker complexion), Panchali (meaning one from the kingdom of Panchala), Yajnaseni (meaning one born from a Yajna or fire-sacrifice), Mahabhaartii (great wife of the 5 descendents of Bharata) and Sairandhri (an expert maid, her assumed name during her 2nd exile in which she worked as Virat kingdom's queen Sudeshna's hair-stylist). She had 5 sons, 1 by each of the Pandavas: Prativindhya, Sutasoma, Srutakirti, Satanika, and Srutakarma. She is described in the Mahabharata as being extraordinarily beautiful, unsurpassed by any other woman of her time. Draupadi is one of the Panch-Kanya (The 5 Virgins) of the ancient Hindu epic, as is her mother-in-law Kunti...
King Drupada of Panchala had been defeated by the Pandava prince Arjuna on behalf of Drona, who subsequently took half his kingdom to humiliate him. To gain revenge on Drona, he performed a fire-sacrifice (yajña) to obtain a means of besting him. Draupadi emerged as a beautiful dark-skinned young woman together with her sibling Dhrishtadyumna from the sacrificial fire.. She was named Kṛṣṇā for her dark complexion, though she is better known as Draupadī "daughter of Drupada"...
"Of eyes like lotus-petals and of faultless features endued with youth and intelligence, she is extremely beautiful. And the slender-waisted Draupadi of every feature perfectly faultless, and whose body emitteth a fragrance like unto that of the blue lotus for two full miles around." and she was so beautiful...
The aesthetic beauty and symmetry of the Platonic solids have made them a favorite subject of geometers for thousands of years.. They are named for the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, who theorized in his dialogue, the Timaeus, that the classical elements were constructed from these regular solids..A polygon with 5 sides is a pentagon...Boron is a chemical element with symbol B and atomic number 5 - Because boron is produced entirely by cosmic ray spallation and not by stellar nucleosynthesis, it is a low-abundance element in both the solar system and the Earth's crust..Cosmic ray spallation is a form of naturally occurring nuclear fission and nucleosynthesis( is the process that creates new atomic nuclei from pre-existing nucleons, primarily protons and neutrons).. It refers to the formation of elements from the impact of cosmic rays on an object. Cosmic rays are highly energetic charged particles from outside of Earth ranging from protons, alpha particles, and nuclei of many heavier elements. About 1% of cosmic rays also consist of free electrons...Boron compounds were known thousands of years ago. Borax was known from the deserts of western Tibet, where it received the name of tincal, derived from the Sanskrit...Turkey and the United States are the world's largest producers of boron...In the US, 70% of the boron is used for the production of glass and ceramics...Boron carbide is used for inner plates of ballistic vests..Boric acid is more toxic to insects than to mammals, and is routinely used as an insecticide...The Lagrangian points ( Lagrange points, L-points, or libration points) are the 5 positions in an orbital configuration where a small object affected only by gravity can theoretically be part of a constant-shape pattern with 2 larger objects (such as a satellite with respect to the Earth and Moon)...

Kundalini ( कुण्डलिनी) is described in yoga as shakti or "corporal energy".. In modern commentaries it has been described as an unconscious, instinctive or libidinal force. Kundalini is described in certain Yoga Upanishads as lying "coiled" at the base of the spine..
It is reported that kundalini awakening results in deep meditation, enlightenment and bliss. In practical terms, one of the most commonly reported kundalini experiences is the feeling of an electric current running along the spine.. In certain branches of psychiatry, the term "kundalini syndrome" refers to physical problems arising from attempts to awaken kundalini...A spontaneous awakening in one who is unprepared or without the assistance of a good teacher can result in an experience which has been termed as "kundalini crisis", "spiritual emergency" or "kundalini syndrome". The symptoms are said to resemble those of kundalini awakening but are experienced as unpleasant, overwhelming or out of control. Unpleasant side effects are said to occur when the practitioner has not approached kundalini with due respect and in a narrow Ego-tistical manner.. Kundalini has been described as a highly creative intelligence which dwarfs our own. Kundalini awakening therefore requires surrender; it is not an energy which can be manipulated by the ego..
Through meditation, and various esoteric practices, such as Kundalini Yoga, Sahaja Yoga, and Kriya Yoga, the kundalini is awakened, and can rise up from the muladhara chakra through the central nadi, called sushumna, inside or alongside the spine and reaches the top of the head. The progress of kundalini through the different chakras leads to different levels of awakening and mystical experience, until the kundalini finally reaches the top of the head, Sahasrara or crown chakra, producing an extremely profound mystical experience..The Sanskrit adjective kuṇḍalin means "circular, annular". It does occur as a noun for "a snake" (in the sense "coiled", as in "forming ringlets") in the 12th-century Rajatarangini chronicle (I.2). Kuṇḍa, a noun with the meaning "bowl, water-pot" is found as the name of a Naga in Mahabharata 1.4828...
