Faith

1. The Hindu philosophy answers the question "Is there anything called expertise to realize GOD"?. No need of any expertise but what is required is to have an implicit faith. It is better said that 'faith is god than faith in god'

2. Illustartion can be quoted from Hanuman who needed no bridge to cross the ocean but faith in Rama Nama or "Tharkara Nama" served as a bridge

3. Arjuna's single minded faith in Krishna as one man army won him the Kurukshethra war.

4. Samandar, a deciple of AdiSankara, when stranded before ganga in spate, prayed to his Guruji. There appeared a lotus in the shore and as he put his front foot forward, there again appeared another Lotus. He not only crossed the flooded Ganga but came to be known as 'PADMA PADAR".

4. Bharata Desam ( India ), is the creationout of the parts of ParaSakthi.
Mumbai is from Mumba Devi
Chennai from Chennamma Devi
Kolkatta from Kalka Devi
Chandigar from Chandi
Patna from Patan Devi

The sons of the soil theory is explictly in the above illustrations

5. Hiranyakasipu who became very angry at the killing of his brother by MahaVishnu, ran after Vishnu with a rage. Vishnu took to his heels. As He was not able to find a secure place to hide, he entered into the heart of Hiranyakasipu. Alas , Hiranyakasipu searched and searched outside, but the lord was inside his heart which he could not discover. The moral of the episode is,

When a person leads a religious life, he starts realizing God within himself.
