Articles to:[email protected] www.aryasamaj queensland.com The Sabha had its fundraising for Mul -purpose Community Hall project on 25th October 2014. It was opportune me to celebrate this Diwali season by cruising in beau ful Brisbane river, looking through our wonderful Brisbane City. The gli+ering light encompassing the river was a magnificent sight, as if someone has lit "Diya" around the place. The Sabha has undertaken this project as we have very limited facili es for mul cultural ac vi es like Marriage ceremonies, Religious func ons, fes val celebra ons etc. This mul -purpose hall will be of great help to the general community. Our aim is to provide a community hall that meets the diverse needs of our residents and visitors. Community facili es extend the community’s capability to conduct ac vi es, develop links among people, and build self-help and mutual support. As well, they should meet the recrea onal, cultural and community support needs and strengthen local community networks. A preliminary concept plan has been produced for staged development at the site with mul -purpose community hall and residen al facility. This Queensland Vedic Cultural Centre will be built as a mul -purpose community hall to seat 500 people. The community hall’s versa lity means it will be able to cater for a wide variety of func ons; such as weddings, community mee ngs, seminars, training events, recep ons, and concerts.The center can be u lized to promote religious teachings, Yoga, Medita on, culture, languages, tradi ons and music. The language school, Yoga and Medita on classes will be held three mes a week and our organiza on has qualified Hindi language teachers and qualified Yoga teacher. The event highlighted Diwali Celebra ons as well and Diwali is known as the "fes val of lights", the most significant meaning is- the awareness of the inner light. Diwali is about the triumph of virtue over vice, of good over evil, of light over darkness and of knowledge over ignorance. Diwali is supposed to be the beginning of a be+er life, be+er future and be+er prospects. It is about unity, tolerance and understanding and our hopes and ambi ons for the future. It reminds us that love, concern and respect for others is the way to a brighter day. Regardless of race or faith, people all over the world idenfy this with the message of Diwali. The vegetarian food was served on board, star ng with delicious entrée and then meal concluded with dessert, being tradi onal sweets and fruits. The patrons enjoyed the music, and on board ac vi es of Antakshri, and Karaoke. The talent was seen amongst the guests and members as they ac vely took part, it was a pleasure to see people enjoying this fes ve season with classic Hindi songs, and poems.

The reason for this seems to be phonetic decay of the characteristic case-endings. (Foundations of Language, p.201) From a study of the various historical languages of the world we have arrived at the inevitable conclusion that it is not classical Sanskrit (which of course is the first or the eldest daughter of the mother) but Vedic Sanskrit is the mother of all the languages of the world. Vedic Sanskrit is the language which was spoken in the beginning of creation by the Aryans when they lived under the same roof in Tibet in the Himalayas before dispersing for their respective homes the world over. It was an astounding discovery that Aryavarta (Bharata, which is India) possessed a language of unequalled richness, a language, the parent of all those languages and dialects that Europe has fondly called classical, the source alike of the Greek flexibility and the Roman strength. The Vedas were revealed to the earliest humans at the beginning of the creation. Since then they were traditionally, handed down to posterity with utmost care and accuracy. The holiness of the text prevented exclamations and changes. The ancients were not satisfied with the Samhita Path of the Vedic verses. They retained the Padapatha also with proper emphasis. We can thus entirely rely on the Vedic texts available to us today in the form of padapatha. “We have then,” says Aurobindo, “as our basis a text which we can confidently accept and which, even if we hold it in a few instances doubtful or defective does not at any rate call for that immoral labour of emendation (changes) to which some of the European classics lend themselves. Eulogising (praising highly) of the Brahmans for maintaining the accuracy and sanctity of the Vedic texts, Maxmuller says : “The texts of the Vedas have been handed down to us with such accuracy that there is hardly a various reading in the proper sense of the word or even an uncertain aspect in the whole of the hardly a various reading in the proper sense of the word or even an uncertain aspect in the whole of the Rigveda.” (Origin of Religion. p.131) And Macdonell went to the extent of asserting that the Vedas can be reproduced from the mouths of the Brahmans in the form in which they are said to have been initially uttered in the beginning of the creation. Some people reject the need for divine revelation at the time of human revelation the plea that such revelations ‘dawn’ from time to time without any super-human intervention. But belief in such revelations has led to great exploitation by men who claim Divinity for themselves.
