Constitutionally Controlled Governance in the Perspective view of the Indian Constitution: An Analytical Study

Dr. Jai Prakash Kushwah — 2024-10-30

Constitutionally controlled governance ensures that governmental power is exercised within the framework of the Constitution, balancing authority and accountability. By articulating the roles of multiple institutions, the delegation of powers, and checks and balances, the Constitution of India offers an effective foundation for governance. With an emphasis on the distinctive elements of the Indian Constitution, especially judicial review, federalism, directive principles of state policy, and fundamental rights, this analytical research explores the essentials of constitutionally managed governance. The paper examines how these principles operate in practice to maintain a democratic structure, promote social justice, and prevent the misuse of power. Special attention is given to landmark judgments that have shaped governance in India and the challenges posed by evolving socio-political dynamics. The study concludes by highlighting the importance of constitutional adherence in fostering equitable and efficient governance in India.

Yam-Niyam ke Adhunik Jeevan Par Padne wale Prabhav ki Sameeksha

Dr. Gajanand Wankhede — 2024-10-30

The practice of Yama and Niyama in modern life has a profound impact on an individual's psychological functioning and leads to improvements in mental well-being. The tendency toward indulgence is naturally found in humans and is also essential for survival. However, if we lack a sense of contentment, we cannot find happiness even after acquiring more than enough. In reality, the way to attain true happiness is to reduce our needs and find satisfaction within them. The practice of Yama and Niyama has a positive effect on stress, anxiety, and depression arising from mental health disturbances. By practicing these principles, subtle refinement of the senses, mind, and body takes place, mental disorders are alleviated, and mental stability is achieved.

Our sages have given us Yama and Niyama as two fundamental components of Ashtanga Yoga. Imbalance or improper adherence to these principles leads to mental and physical disorders. Modern science also acknowledges that most diseases originate from the mind and manifest in the body; these are known as psychosomatic diseases. The practice of Yama and Niyama has a profound influence on our life and health.

Maharshi Gherand ke Ghatasth Yog Evam Swami Charandas ke Astang Yog Ka tulnatmak Addhyan

The Ghatashtha Yoga authored by Maharishi Gheranda and the Ashtanga Yoga written by Swami Charandas are both excellent systems of yogic practice. While there are many similarities between Ghatashtha Yoga and Ashtanga Yoga, some differences also exist. However, both yoga systems contribute to the physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being of an individual.

In Ashtanga Yoga by Swami Charandas, the eight limbs of yoga are elaborated upon, while in Ghatashtha Yoga by Maharishi Gheranda, seven limbs of yoga are described, earning it the alternative name Saptanga Yoga. Swami Charandas begins his Ashtanga Yoga with Yama and Niyama, considering them the foundation of yogic practice. According to him, achieving success in yoga without practicing Yama and Niyama is difficult. However, in Ghatashtha Yoga, there is no mention of Yama and Niyama. Maharishi Gheranda begins Ghatashtha Yoga with purification techniques, asserting that success in yoga is impossible without cleansing the body.

Swami Charandas describes purification techniques in his text Bhakti Sagar, but these techniques are not included in his Ashtanga Yoga. Ghatashtha Yoga includes 32 asanas, whereas Ashtanga Yoga highlights only two main asanas: Siddhasana and Padmasana. In Ghatashtha Yoga, there is a description of eight types of pranayama: Sahita, Surya Bhedana, Ujjayi, Sheetali, Bhastrika, Bhramari, Moorchha, and Kevali pranayama. Similarly, Swami Charandas' Ashtanga Yoga also describes eight types of pranayama. However, instead of Sahita pranayama, Sheetkari pranayama is mentioned, while the remaining types are the same.

Both Ghatashtha Yoga and Ashtanga Yoga describe Pratyahara as a means to turn the senses and mind inward. In Ashtanga Yoga, Swami Charandas explains Dharana as the sixth limb, emphasizing the contemplation of the five elements. Conversely, Maharishi Gheranda, in Ghatashtha Yoga, describes 25 mudras, five of which represent the five elemental contemplations: Parthivi Dharana (Earth), Ambhasi Dharana (Water), Agneyi Dharana (Fire), Vayaviya Dharana (Air), Akashi Dharana (Ether).

Yog Vashistha me Varnit Manorogo ki Chikitsa: Ek Vishleshnatamak Adhdhyan

Dr. Arpita Negi — 2024-10-30

In the present times, humans are increasingly suffering from mental health issues. While science has provided numerous comforts and conveniences to human life, it has also introduced significant mental challenges. Life today is far more stressful compared to earlier times. Modern medical practices and psychological methods, despite their combined efforts, have failed to effectively address these challenges. Physicians in nearly every country are continuously searching for solutions to these problems.
In this scenario, the "Science of Yoga" discovered by the sages of India is making a significant contribution. Modern physicians now acknowledge that where the limits of modern psychology end, the journey of yoga science begins. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to refer to yoga as parapsychology, higher-level psychology, or spiritual psychology.
