Answer: Perhpas you could have rephrased your question, for better understanding
RISHI: a divinely inspired poet or sage; usually refers to the original preceptors of the Vedas, the original Hindu scriptures.
CHHANDA : Deals with the analysis of type of meter used in the construction of Vedi hymns
BEEJA :Bija mantras or Beeja mantras represent the essence of the Guru Mantra. They are the vibrations, and represent the "call" of the soul. The word “Beej” means a seed and a seed mantra is generally of one syllable, it is also known as the root mantra. A seed letter is known as a Bija-akshara. The concept behind the Bija mantra is that, when a seed is sown it grows into a fruitful tree. In the same manner, the pronunciation of a Bija mantra produces powerful effects called Shakti. Its effects develop more profoundly in deep meditation. As it works at the astral level, Bija Mantra guides and influences the course of our destiny.
Shakti : The Sanskrit word Shakti can be translated as meaning "power" or "energy." It is derived from the parasmaipada verb root "shak," which means "to be able," "to do," "to act." This power is witnessed in all the various phenomena of life. It is the force responsible for the growth of vegetation, animals and human beings. It is what is responsible for the movement of all things. The planets revolve around the sun as a result of Shakti. It is Shakti that makes the winds blow and the oceans churn. Shakti is manifest as the very affective ability of all the forces of nature. She is the heat of fire, the brilliance of the sun, the very life force of all living beings. In human beings, she is seen as the power of intelligence (buddhi), compassion (daya) and divine love (bhakti), among her many other functions (Sharma, 1974; Goswami 1995).
It is the power of Shakti that "...keeps the gods in their position, makes a man virile or makes a sage of a man" (Sharma, 1974). Without the presence of Shakti, all creation would be rendered impotent.
Aum: (Sanskrit) Often spelled Om. The mystic syllable of Hinduism,
placed at the beginning of most sacred writings. As a mantra, it is
pronounced aw (as in law), oo (as in zoo), mm (as in mm). Aum is
explained in the Upanishads as standing for the whole world and its
parts, including past, present, and future. It is from this primal
vibration that all manifestation issues forth. Aum is the primary,
or mula mantra, and often precedes other mantras. Its three letters
represent the three worlds and the powers of creation, preservation,
and destruction. In common usage in several Indian languages, aum
means "yes, verily" or "hail."
Namah Sivaya: (Sanskrit) "Adoration (or homage) to Siva." The
supreme mantra of Saivism, known as the Panchakshara or "five
letters." Na is the Lord's veiling grace; Ma is the world; Si is
Siva (Shiva); Va is His revealing grace; Ya is the soul. The letters
also represent the phyiscal body: Na the legs; Ma the stomach; Si
the shoulders; Va the mouth; Ya the eyes. Embodying the essence of
Saiva Siddhanta, it is found in the center of the central Veda (the
Yajur) of the original three Vedas (Rig, Yajur, and Sama).
Namastaraya namah shambhave cha mayobhave cha,
namah shankaraya cha mayaskaraya cha,
namah sivaya cha sivayataraya cha.
"Homage to the source of health and to the source of delight.
Homage to the maker of health and to the maker of delight.
Homage to the Auspicious, and to the more Auspicious"
(Krishna Yajur Veda, Taittiriya Samhita 4.5.8).
EDIT ; OH NOW IT IS CLEAR
Though all the AKSHAR of the NAMA SHIVAY are the BEEJ ROOP but the second AKSHAR is the BEEJ of this MANTAR. Third VARAN is the DHIGAR SVAR, KILAK is the fifth VARAN and SHAKATI is the fifth VARAN. The RISHI of the MANTAR is VAMDEV and PANKATI is named as CHAND of the MANTAR. LORD SHIV is the DEVTA and owner of this MANTAR. GAUTAM, ATRI, VISHWAMITAR, ANGIRA and BHARDWAJ are the RISHIES of the NKARADHI VARNAS. GAYATRI, ANUSHTAP, TRISHUTAP, BRAHATI, VIRAT are the CHAND of these five AKSHARS. INDER, RUDHAR, VISHNU, BRHAMA and SKAND respectively are the DEVTAS of these AKSHARS. The five MUKHS of LORD SHIV are the SATHANS of these NAKARADI AKSHARS. The first, second and fourth AKSHAR of this MANTAR are the UDAT and third is the ANUDHAT and fifth is the SWARIT. MOOL VIDHYA, SHIV, SHAIV, SUTRA and PANCHAKSHAR are the names of this MANTAR. SHAIV BEEJ PRANAV is considered as the heart of LORD SHIV, NAKAR is the head, MAKAR is the SHIKHA, SHI is KAVACH, VA is NETAR, and YAKAR is the ASTAR of LORD SHIV. In the CHATURTHPRAYANT of ANGS joining the NAMAH, SHWAHA, VASHAT, HUM, VOSHAT, FUT is known as ANGANAYAS. If the fifth VARAN YA is replaced by the twealth SWAR YAEE means instead of saying NAMH SHIVAY if says NAMAH SHIVAEE it becomes the MOOL MANTAR of DEVI SHIVA.

Question: Is there any Bija mantra of Lord Kuber & what mala (rosary) can be used to chant it. Eg: crystal,rudraksha etc
Answer: Kubera (also Kuvera or Kuber) is the god of wealth and the lord of Uttaradisha in Hindu mythology. He is also known as Dhanapati, the lord of riches. He is one of the Guardians of the directions, representing the north. Kubera is also the son of Sage Vishrava(Vaisravana), and in this respect, he is also the elder brother of the Lord of Lanka, Ravana.
Ravana was a great Shiva Bakta and as per Shiva's instuctions, Brahma, the Creator, gave him immortality and made him god of wealth, guardian of all the treasures of the earth, which he was to give out to whom they were destined.
This is the background of Kubera.
For worshiping him you have to sit facing North Director and chant the following Mantra-
" Oṃ Shaṃ Kuberāya Namaḥ "
You can use a Rudhraksha mala as he is a follower of Shiva or a White Cristal Mala to chant his nama.
For your information, if you do not know or do not get the correct Rosary (Mala) for worshiping any God you can use Clear white Crystal malas. It is a all purpose mala.
Another mala for all Pujas and Manthras can be used - It is NAVARATNA mala with 108 beads i.e..12 beads each. It will be very costly one but you can select all small beads and give sufficient gap between each bead while making. You can keep only one Diamond and other 11 can be ordinary white (American diamond). It will be good for all Griha Doshas and suitable for all Pujas. -

Others are also welcome :
Who is the God?
Narayana, the Parama Purusha or the supreme Godhead was alone in the
beginning in Vaikunta, the permanent abode (Nitya Vibhuthi). He created
the Leela Vibhuthi (his playground) from a minute part of his body. From
Him came the Maha Vishnu who is in a trance, creating, maintaining, and
destroying thousands of universes (Brahmandas) in this Leela Vibhuthi.
During the time span of one eye blink of Maha Vishnu, several universes
appear and dissolve. In each universe, he enters as Narayana. From his
navel came our Brahma. The God then instructed Brahma to create various
beings in various lokas including the creation of life in an evolutionary
manner on the Earth.

Teachings of Lord Caitanya Ch 31 The Supreme Perfection
Author: His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
The word klim added to the gayatri mantra is explained in Brahma-samhita as the transcendental seed of love of Godhead, or the seed of the kama-gayatri. The object is Krsna, who is the ever green Cupid, and by utterance of klim mantra Krsna is worshiped. It is also stated in the Gopala-tapani Upanisad that when Krsna is spoken of as Cupid, one should not think of Him as the Cupid of this material world. As already explained, Vrndavana is the spiritual abode of Krsna, and the word Cupid is also spiritual and transcendental. One should not take the material Cupid and Krsna to be on the same level. The material Cupid represents the attraction of the external flesh and body, but the spiritual Cupid is the attraction by which the Supersoul attracts the individual soul.

The whorl of that transcendental lotus is the realm wherein dwells Krsna. It is a hexagonal figure, the abode of the indwelling predominated and predominating aspect of the Absolute. Like a diamond the central supporting figure of self-luminous Krsna stands as the transcendental source of all potencies. The holy name consisting of eighteen transcendental letters is manifested in a hexagonal figure with sixfold divisions.
Bs 5.3
PURPORT
Bs 5.3
The transcendental pastimes of Krsna are twofold, viz., manifested and nonmanifested. The pastimes in Vrndavana visible to mortal eyes are the manifestive lila of Sri Krsna, and that which is not so visible, is nonmanifestive lila of Krsna. The nonmanifestive lila is always visible in Goloka and the same is visible to human eyes in Gokula, if Krsna so desires. In his Krsna-sandarbha Sri Jiva Gosvami Prabhu says, "Nonmanifestive pastimes are expressed in manifestive krsna-lila. and goloka-lila is the nonmanifestive pastimes of Krsna visualized from the mundane plane." This is also corroborated by Sri Rupa in his Bhagavatamrta. The progressive transcendental manifestation of Gokula is Goloka. So Goloka is the selfsame majestic manifestation of Gokula. The eternal pastimes of Sri Krsna, although not visible in Gokula, are eternally manifested in Goloka. Goloka is the transcendental majestic manifestation of Gokula. The manifestations of the nonmanifestive pastimes of Krsna with regard to the conditioned souls, are twofold, viz., (1) worship through the channel of the mantras (inaudibly recited, liberating, self-dedicatory. transcendental sounds), (2) spontaneous outflow of heart's spiritual love for Krsna. Sri Jiva Gosvami has said that worship through the mantra is possible permanently in the proper place, when confined to one pastime. This meditative manifestation of Goloka is the pastime attended with the worship of Krsna through the mantra. Again, the pastimes that are performed in different planes and in different moods, are autocratic in diverse ways; hence sva-rasiki, i.e., spontaneous, outflow of heart's spiritual love for Krsna. This sloka conveys a twofold meaning. One meaning is that in the pastime attended with worship through the mantra consisting of eighteen transcendental letters, transcendental words contained in the said mantra being differently placed make a manifestation of only one lila of Sri Krsna. As for example klim krsnaya govindaya gopijana-vallabhaya svaha--this is a hexagonal mantra consisting of six transcendental words, viz., (1) krsnaya, (2) govindaya, (3) gopijana, (4) vallabhaya, (5) sva, (6) ha. These six transcendental words, when placed juxtapositionally, indicate the mantra.
Bs 5.3
The hexagonal great transcendental machinery is in this wise. The principal seed, i.e. klim, is situated in the instrument as the central pivot. Anybody with an impression of such an instrument in his mind and concentrating his thought on such spiritual entities, can attain, like Candradhvaja, to the knowledge of the cognitive principle. The word sva indicates ksetrajna i.e., one who is conversant with one's inner self, and the word ha indicates the transcendental nature. This meaning of the mantra has also been corroborated by Sri Hari-bhakti-vilasa. The general meaning is this that one who is desirous of entering into the esoteric pastimes of Krsna will have to practice His transcendental service along with the culture of the devotional knowledge relative to Him. (1) krsna-svarupa--the proper Self of Krsna; (2) krsnasya cin-maya-vraja-lila-vilasa-svarupa--the true nature of Krsna's transcendental pastimes in Vraja; (3) tat-parikara-gopijana-svarupa--the true nature of His spiritual associates in Vraja, viz., the spiritual milkmen and the milkmaids; (4) tad-vallabha--the true nature of self-surrender to Krsna in the footsteps of the spiritual milkmaids of Vraja; (5) suddha-jivasya cid-(jnana)-svarupa--the true nature of the spiritual knowledge of the unalloyed individual soul; (6) cit-prakrtir arthat krsna-seva-svabhava--the true nature of transcendental service to Krsna is this that the esoteric relation is established on the awakening of one's pure cognition. The meaning is that rasa is only the transcendental service of the central refuge Sri Krsna, as predominating aspect of the Absolute, by one's ego as the spiritual maid of the predominated moiety of the absolute integer, attended with pure devotion in the shape of one's entire self-surrender. The pastime in Goloka or in Gokula during the stage of devotional progress, is the meditative worship through the mantra, and during the stage of perfection the pastimes manifest themselves as the unrestrained transcendental jubilations. This is the real aspect of Goloka or Gokula, which will be made more explicit in due course. The meaning of the words jyoti-rupena manuna is that the transcendental meaning is expressed in the mantra by means of which, on transcendental desire of love for Krsna and the service of Krsna being added, one is established in the eternal love of Krsna. Such eternal pastimes are eternally manifested in Goloka.Bs 5.4 T
tat-kinjalkam tad-amsanam
tat-patrani sriyam api
SYNONYMS
tat--of that (lotus); kinjalkam--the petals; tat-amsanam--of His (Krsna's) fragmental portions; tat--of that (lotus); patrani--the leaves; sriyam--of the gopis (headed by Srimati Radharani); api--also.
TRANSLATION
The whorl of that eternal realm Gokula is the hexagonal abode of Krsna. Its petals are the abodes of gopis who are part and parcel of Krsna to whom they are most lovingly devoted and are similar in essence. The petals shine beautifully like so many walls. The extended leaves of that lotus are the gardenlike dhama, i.e. spiritual abode of Sri Radhika, the most beloved of Krsna.
PURPORT
The transcendental Gokula is shaped like the lotus. The eternal world is like a hexagonal figure; in that the entities Sri Radha-Krsna, appearing in the form of a mantra consisting of eighteen transcendental letters, are centered. The propagating manifestations emanating from the cit potency are present there with the said entities as the center. Sri Radha-Krsna is the primary cause or the seed Himself. Gopala-tapani says, "Omkara" signifies the All-Powerful Gopala and His potency; and "klim" is the same as omkara. Hence kama-bija or the primary cause of all-love, is connotative of the entities Sri Radha-Krsna.

Question: Hoodia Slimming Tea...do you get the same results with the tea as you do with the pills? I've been reading up on Hoodia as of late. I don't find that swallowing pills is the easiest for me to do, so I was searching for an alternative. I found a tea called Hoodia Slimming Tea by Bija. Does anyone know if this would get the same results as the pill? Does it contain 100% of the Hoodia plant? Any advise would be helpful. It's not expensive, so I'm assuming that it doesn't contain 100%. Here is the site that I found it off of:
http://www.nextag.com/Hoodia-Slimming-Tea-20-78854646/prices-html
Answer: The problem with Hoodia Slimming Tea is that it does not contain very much hoodia. A better choice if you don't like pills would be a hoodia liquid concentrate or a more powerful tea. Totalink has a great unbiased Hoodia Liquid comparison at http://hoodiagordonii.totalink.com/hoodi… in the "Confidence" column it will indicate if the brand is "Certified". These Hoodia brands have the credentials to back up their product.
Hope this helps, if you want to know more about Hoodia I have written a lot of articles on it. Just search Yahoo or Google under my name “Andrew Aitaken” to find them.
Remember, you should always consult your physician before taking any diet pill or weight loss supplement.

This voyage began with my love for you
I know not if it shall attain its destiny
I am incomplete without your love
And so shall my life be without you.
There will be heart and also meeting of hearts somewhere
There will be roads and also ends of paths somewhere
The arrows that come from your eyes full of hatred
They hurt no one else but stab me in my heart.
this is a "ghazal". it is definitely by a guy to a girl who has eluded his romantic advances and the guy thinks it'd be super cool to exaggerate his sufferings by using big words. turns out it's super lame. it's not a way to win a girl. if she wanted to be with a loser she'd be with him, wouldn't she? of course some girls find it cute. ugh. :p
Question: Gayatri Mantra was reveled Rishi Yagnya Valkya, but its 24 sounds were heard by 24 Rishis? Do u know them? This question is for Hindus
------------------------------------
Gayatri Manatra is supposed to the most powerful mantra in Hinduism. Many enchant it, however I don’t know how many know how it came to us.
When Rishi Yagnya Valkya did tapas and finally almighty came in front of him, he requested god to explain him one of the other creation process (other than the current one). While explaining the same, almighty gave us the explanation of this Mantra.
However this Mantra contains 24 sounds (Bija Mantra – Seed Syllable). Each of this sound was heard and seen by 24 different Rishis in different times.
Combination of all these 24 sounds forms the Gayatri.
Omkar, Vyahrithi and Gayatri when combined together forms the Gayatri mantra which everyone enchants.
My question is
could anyone give me those 24 Rishi’s names?
Answer: The Gayatri Mantra is a 24-syllable hymn from the Rig Veda , and is a confluence of 24 Beej Aksharas which has an hypnotizing effect on the chanter's consciousness. The language of the mantra is a moresymbolic and metaphysical one.
The Gayatri Mantra
-----------------------
The Vedic form of the famous Gayatri mantra is:
Om bhoor-bhuvah-svah
tat savitur varenyam
bhargo devasya dhimahi
dhiyo yo nah prachodayat.
The phrase Om Bhoor Bhuvah Svah is generally added to the mantra,when it is recited.
Om generally represents the Supreme Consciousness , and the Bhoor , Bhuvah and Svah are the three planes or levels of consciousness.
tat savitur varenyam means " that revered God (Solar Principle)" bhargo devasya dhimahi means " destroy the ignorance with divine wisdom"
dhiyo yo nah prachodayat means " lead our intellects (buddhi) and energy in right direction "
Chanting Method
------------------
Gayatri should be chanted at medium speed, and each mantra chant should be immediately followed by the next chant, such that a cycle (spiral) of chants is formed and pervades around the chanter.
Precautions
-------------
No precautions as such are necessary , but the following are worth noting.
1. The mind should be positive, and no negative thoughts should be entertained. Because, what ever thoughts we entertain during Gayatri chant, gets multiplied.
2. Specific time and place for regular chant is more helpful in the longer run.
About Mantra
---------------
The Gayatri Mantra is one of the keynotes to the transformation of consciousness and is an identical vibration to the vital force in nature. The Gayatri Mantra is extremely powerful and its divine implications are not easily comprehended.
The 24 syllables in the mantra are intended to give the following qualities in physical plane.
1. 'tat' - tapini - fruitfulness
2 'sa' - saphalata - valor
3 'vi' - visshwa - perseverance
4 'tur' - tushti - welfare
5 'va' - varada - yoga
6 're' - revati - love
7 'ni' - sukshma - wealth
8 'yam' - jnana - lustre
9 'bhar' - bharga - protection
10 'go' - gomati - wisdom
11 'de' - devika - subjugation
12 'va' - varahi - allegiance
13 'sya' - simhani - determination
14 'dhi' - dhyana - life
15 'ma' - maryada - time
16 'hi' - sphutaa - penance
17 'dhi' - medha - forecast
18 'yo' - yogamaya - alertness
19 'yo' - yogini - production
20 'nah' - dhanin - protection
21 'pra' - prabhava - idealism
22 'cho' - ushma - adventure
23 'da' - drishya - discrimination
24 'at' - niranjana - service.
The 24 powers of Gayatri mentioned above awaken certain qualities, and along with this awakening, one starts getting success and prosperity i.e., siddhi. Many feel that these benefits are showered by some Gods or Goddesses. But in reality, the development of the subtle force is done within themselves. If they are able to realize the subtle force working in them, they will realize that such benefits do not accrue of their own accord, and that all of them are the results of the interplay of spiritual forces in them. Gayatri sadhana or upasana is no more a blind faith, but is a scientific process.
