Namaste. I want to get clarity about the location of these places referred to in the poem URVASIE. Though I thought that poetic symbolism need not have a geographical accuracy in it, I found some suggestions in the poem which help to locate these cities along the course of the river Ganges.ย 1.Budrichayshwur โ is it Badrinath?

Alok da when Savitri’s yoga was going on and when Savitri was talking to Yamdev, what was Satyavan’s role, what was he doing and how did Satyavan accompany Savitri in that? Was Satyavan and Savitri both doing yoga together? And if Satyavan refuses to return thinking that this is my destiny, if god has thought something for me then I will follow that, if you accept this then Savitri will bring Satyavan back, husband?

I’m in cancer treatment and it looks quite good. But I have to deal with a medical system here in Switzerland that on one hand is very excellent but on the other is often working with “worst case” scenarios causing fear and anxiety in me. (Sometimes I ask myself whether the hostile forces can also use doctors…) Anyway, I often feel the obligation to decide something, whether to follow the doctor’s advice or go my own way.
