The Bhand Deval Jain temple is built in the north of the eleventh century. The temple is in the Mahakoshal area of Arang. The temple is built in Bhumija architecture. The bottom of this temple has detailed ornaments. It has a sole that supports a pedestal on the wall and two rows of statues. The temple layout plan is a star-shaped one known as the stalette. The temple grows up to five floors, considered an unusual feature. The temple's face is on the west side. The temple is in harsh condition. In the past, a pavilion and a porch probably existed as part of the temple. The damaged front of the temple tower has been plastered without any decoration and also white. The northeast and southeast faces of the Temple Tower, all that were diluted, have been repainted in brick and mortar, but seriously. However, the overall view of the tower is still pleasant. Once upon a time, this temple was used as a survey marking station. As there was a tendency for the upper half of the tower to structurally explode by its borders, a metal strap bracing has been wounded around the tower in the middle section to give it stability. The top of the tower has a similar strap wound round. A large number of paintings have been engraved on the exterior and interior faces of the temple. The bigger images are engraved in two lines. Above the lines of bigger images, a line of carving small images is drawn. Inscription panels, flowers, and a line of highly decorated depictions of a royal march of horses, animals and people based on large images. The exterior faces of the temple are decorated with carved paintings.

The Navagraha or 9 planets, their transits, and positions in the birth chart form the basis of Vedic Astrology. The Navagraha include Surya (Sun), Chandra (Moon), Mangala (Mars), Budha (Mercury), Brihaspati (Jupiter), Shukra (Venus), Shani (Saturn), and the shadow planets - Rahu and Ketu. Our ancient sages found that the careful study of these planets can reveal the past, present, and future of any individual and accordingly, designed the system of Vedic Astrology.
Each of these planets has its own unique personality and characteristics. They can individually, and in combination with one or more planets, can give positive or adverse impact depending on their positioning at the time of the birth of an individual, and on their subsequent transit during the individual’s life. Navagraha mantra is a sacred hymn dedicated to these 9 planets. Chanting or listening to this mantra can help reduce the adverse effects of Navagraha and increase their positive blessings.
Navagraha Mantra – Sacred Tool To Gain Positive Planetary Blessings:
Mantras are powerful incantations packed with immense spiritual energy that can fill your aura with peace and positivity. There are specific guidelines as to how a mantra should be chanted, and when to chant so these mantras can create vibrations that can bring peace and happiness in life.
Navagraha Mantras consist of nine sacred hymns, each of which is dedicated to one of the Navagrahas. These simple, single-line mantras are chanted to propitiate the 9 powerful planets. Chanting these hymns with devotion can help in getting various benefits from the auspicious and favourably placed planets; and in reducing the adverse effects of the inauspicious and unfavourably placed ones.
A planet governs every day of the week and it is believed that the mantra addressed to a planet should be recited on the day dedicated to that planet for optimal results. For instance, Surya Mantra can be chanted on Sundays, Chandra Mantra on Mondays, and so on. Rahu and Ketu do not have any days dedicated to them. However, one can chant Rahu Mantra on Saturdays and Ketu Mantra on Tuesdays.

Sri Ranganatha Temple is one of the largest and most sacred complexes. This Vaishnava temple is situated on the holy island of Srirangam in the Cauvery River. The temple building started in the Chola period. Still, most of the works were carried out from the 13th to the 17th century under the patronage of the Pandya, Hoysala, Vijayanagara and Nayaka rulers. Coming to these ornaments.
This photograph shows part of the vast amounts of jewellery the temple received as donations from devotees. Indian Archaeological survey arranged these ornaments to have photographed in the year between 1896-1898.
The Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple dedicated to Ranganatha, a form of the lord, Maha Vishnu, located in Srirangam, Tiruchirapalli, Tamil Nadu, India. The temple is glorified by Alvars in their Divya Prabhanda and has the unique distinction of being not only the foremost among the 108 Divya Desams dedicated to Vishnu, but also the largest functioning Hindu temple in the world.
ஒரு அநியாயக்கார அரசன் ஒருவன் ஒரு அப்பாவி குடிமகனை கைது செய்து மூன்று மீட்டர் மாத்திரமே பரப்பளவான ஒரு தனிச் சிறையில் அடைக்கும்படி கட்டளையிட்டான்.
நிரபராதியான அந்த குடிமகன் ஆர்பாட்டம் செய்ய ஆரம்பித்தான். " நான் நிரபராதி, ஏன் என்னை கைது செய்தீர்கள்? ஏன் என்னை சிறையில் அடைத்தீர்கள்?" என்று உரக்கக் கதறினான்.
பின்னர் அவனை ஒரு மீட்டர் மாத்திரமே விசாலமான ஒரு தனிச் சிறையில் அடைக்கும்படி கட்டளை வந்தது.
மீண்டும் ஆர்பாட்டம் செய்தான். ஆனால் இம்முறை "நான் நிரபராதி" என்ற வாதத்தையை மறந்துவிட்டான். "இது என்ன கொடுமை! இந்தச் சிறையில் எப்படி இருப்பது! உறங்குவது! அமர்ந்து கொண்டுதானே உறங்க முடியும்! இது உங்களுக்கே தப்பாக தெரியவில்லையா?" என கதறினான்.
சினம் கொண்ட ஜெயிலர் இன்னும் நான்கு சிறைக் கைதிகளை அவனோடு சோர்ந்து அந்த சிறிய கூட்டில் அடைத்துவிட்டான்.
இப்போது ஐந்து பேரும் இணைந்து கூக்குரலிட்டனர். "எங்களால் முடியாது. நாங்கள் மூச்சுத்திணறி செத்துதுவிடுவோம். உங்களுக்கு ஈவிரக்கம் எதுவும் இல்லையா?" என புலம்பினார்கள்.
மேலும் சினம் கொண்ட ஜெயிலர் ஒரு பன்றியை அவர்களோடு சிறையில் அடைத்து விட்டான்.
விரக்தியடைந்த அவர்கள், " நாங்கள் இந்த அசிங்கத்தோடு இந்தச் சிறிய கூட்டில் எப்படி இருப்பது! தயவுசெய்து இந்த பன்றியை மாத்திரமாவது வெளியே எடுத்துவிடுங்கள் "என கெஞ்சிக்கேட்டனர்.
தயவு காட்டிய ஜெயிலர் பன்றியை வெளியே எடுத்தான். அடுத்த நாள் அரசன் அந்தப் பக்கமாக வந்து " இப்போது உங்கள் நிலை எப்படி?" என்று விசாரித்தான்.
"நாங்கள் நல்ல சுகமாக இருக்கிறோம். எங்கள் பெரிய பிரச்சினை தீர்ந்துவிட்டது " என்று பதில் கூறினார்கள்.
இப்படித்தான் நாடுகளில் பன்றிமய கோட்பாடு அமுல்படுத்தப் படுகிறது. பன்றியை மாத்திரம் எடுத்து விட்டால் போதும் என்ற கோரிக்கையில் ஆர்பாட்டம் முடிந்துவிடுகிறது. அதற்கு முன்னால் இருந்த விவகாரம், அதற்கும் முன்னால் இருந்த மூல விவகாரம் எல்லாம் மறக்கடிக்கப்படுகிறது.
புதுப் பது பிரச்சினைகளை கட்டவிழ்த்து விடுகின்றனர். முடிவில் பன்றிமய கோட்பாட்டை அவிழ்த்து விடுகின்றனர். பின்னர் நாம் அதிலிருந்து விடுபட வேண்டும் என்பதற்காக முதன்மைப் பிரச்சினைகளை மறந்துவிடுகின்றோம்.
Cancer is a large group of diseases that can start in almost any organ or tissue of the body when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably, go beyond their usual boundaries to invade adjoining parts of the body and/or spread to other organs. The latter process is called metastasizing and is a major cause of death from cancer. A neoplasm and malignant tumour are other common names for cancer.
Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, accounting for an estimated 9.6 million deaths, or one in six deaths, in 2018. Lung, prostate, colorectal, stomach and liver cancer are the most common types of cancer in men, while breast, colorectal, lung, cervical and thyroid cancer are the most common among women.
The cancer burden continues to grow globally, exerting tremendous physical, emotional and financial strain on individuals, families, communities and health systems. Many health systems in low- and middle-income countries are least prepared to manage this burden, and large numbers of cancer patients globally do not have access to timely quality diagnosis and treatment. In countries where health systems are strong, survival rates of many types of cancers are improving thanks to accessible early detection, quality treatment and survivorship care.
Screening tests can help detect malignancies in their earliest stages, but you should always be alert for symptoms of the disease. The American Cancer Society developed this simple reminder years ago:
C: Change in bowel or bladder habits
A: A sore that does not heal
U: Unusual bleeding or discharge
T: Thickening or lump in the breast or elsewhere
I: Indigestion or difficulty in swallowing
O: Obvious change in a wart or mole
N: Nagging cough or hoarseness
So if you're interested in preventing cancer, take comfort in the fact that simple lifestyle changes can make a difference. Consider these cancer-prevention tips.
1. Don't use tobacco
Using any type of tobacco puts you on a collision course with cancer. Smoking has been linked to various types of cancer — including cancer of the lung, mouth, throat, larynx, pancreas, bladder, cervix and kidney. Chewing tobacco has been linked to cancer of the oral cavity and pancreas. Even if you don't use tobacco, exposure to secondhand smoke might increase your risk of lung cancer.
Avoiding tobacco — or deciding to stop using it — is an important part of cancer prevention. If you need help quitting tobacco, ask your doctor about stop-smoking products and other strategies for quitting.
2. Eat a healthy diet
Although making healthy selections at the grocery store and at mealtime can't guarantee cancer prevention, it might reduce your risk. Consider these guidelines:
Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables. Base your diet on fruits, vegetables and other foods from plant sources — such as whole grains and beans.
Maintain a healthy weight. Eat lighter and leaner by choosing fewer high-calorie foods, including refined sugars and fat from animal sources.
If you choose to drink alcohol, do so only in moderation The risk of various types of cancer — including cancer of the breast, colon, lung, kidney and liver — increases with the amount of alcohol you drink and the length of time you've been drinking regularly.
Limit processed meats. A report from the International Agency for Research on Cancer, the cancer agency of the World Health Organization, concluded that eating large amounts of processed meat can slightly increase the risk of certain types of cancer.
In addition, women who eat a Mediterranean diet supplemented with extra-virgin olive oil and mixed nuts might have a reduced risk of breast cancer. The Mediterranean diet focuses mostly on plant-based foods, such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and nuts. People who follow the Mediterranean diet choose healthy fats, such as olive oil, over butter and fish instead of red meat.
3. Maintain a healthy weight and be physically active
Maintaining a healthy weight might lower the risk of various types of cancer, including cancer of the breast, prostate, lung, colon and kidney.
Physical activity counts, too. In addition to helping you control your weight, physical activity on its own might lower the risk of breast cancer and colon cancer.
Adults who participate in any amount of physical activity gain some health benefits. But for substantial health benefits, strive to get at least 150 minutes a week of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes a week of vigorous aerobic activity. You can also do a combination of moderate and vigorous activity. As a general goal, include at least 30 minutes of physical activity in your daily routine — and if you can do more, even better.
4. Protect yourself from the sun
Skin cancer is one of the most common kinds of cancer — and one of the most preventable. Try these tips:
Avoid midday sun. Stay out of the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the sun's rays are strongest.
Stay in the shade. When you're outdoors, stay in the shade as much as possible. Sunglasses and a broad-brimmed hat help, too.
Cover exposed areas. Wear tightly woven, loose fitting clothing that covers as much of your skin as possible. Opt for bright or dark colors, which reflect more ultraviolet radiation than do pastels or bleached cotton.
Don't skimp on sunscreen. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30, even on cloudy days. Apply sunscreen generously, and reapply every two hours — or more often if you're swimming or perspiring.
Avoid tanning beds and sunlamps. These are just as damaging as natural sunlight.
5. Get vaccinated
Cancer prevention includes protection from certain viral infections. Talk to your doctor about vaccination against:
Hepatitis B. Hepatitis B can increase the risk of developing liver cancer. The hepatitis B vaccine is recommended for certain adults at high risk — such as adults who are sexually active but not in a mutually monogamous relationship, people with sexually transmitted infections, people who use intravenous drugs, men who have sex with men, and health care or public safety workers who might be exposed to infected blood or body fluids.
Human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a sexually transmitted virus that can lead to cervical and other genital cancers as well as squamous cell cancers of the head and neck. The HPV vaccine is recommended for girls and boys ages 11 and 12. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently approved the use of the vaccine Gardasil 9 for males and females ages 9 to 45.
6. Avoid risky behaviours
Another effective cancer prevention tactic is to avoid risky behaviours that can lead to infections that, in turn, might increase the risk of cancer. For example:
Practice safe sex. Limit your number of sexual partners and use a condom when you have sex. The more sexual partners you have in your lifetime, the more likely you are to contract a sexually transmitted infection — such as HIV or HPV. People who have HIV or AIDS have a higher risk of cancer of the anus, liver and lungs. HPV is often associated with cervical cancer, but it might also increase the risk of cancer of the anus, penis, throat, vulva and vagina.
Don't share needles. Sharing needles with people who use intravenous drugs can lead to HIV, as well as hepatitis B and hepatitis C — which can increase the risk of liver cancer. If you're concerned about drug misuse or addiction, seek professional help.
7. Get regular medical care
Regular self-exams and screenings for various types of cancers — such as cancer of the skin, colon, cervix and breast — can increase your chances of discovering cancer early, when treatment is most likely to be successful. Ask your doctor about the best cancer screening schedule for you.
