The Moksha Gita: Swami Sivananda Chapter-11: Brahma - Upadesa The Moksha Gita Commentary: Swami Krishnananda. ================================================================ 5.  "Thou art indivisible, partless, and infinite.

Swami Udit Chaithanyaji Chittorgarh is home to the Chittor Fort, the largest fort in India and Asia.  The fort of Chittor has witnessed the world's longest-ruling dynasty, the Kingdom of Mewar, for almost 8 centuries.  Built in the 7th century, Chittorgarh is the largest fort in Asia.  Spread over the area of 700 acres, this place has 22 water bodies.  It was sacked thrice; first in 1303 by Alauddin Khalji, again in 1535 by Bahadur Shah of Gujarat, and lastly by the Mughal Emperor Akbar in 1568.  Its Hindu Rajput rulers fought fiercely to maintain their independence. ================================================================ ================================================================ Saturday, 16 Sep 2023 06:30.

His absolute consciousness by its very nature of all-inclusiveness attracts that part of universal existen...
