Reading Part B: 7 Secrets from Hindu Calendar Art Chp. 2

In the beginning of Seven Secrets from Hindu Calendar Narayan's Secret, they show a picture of Narayan waking up. When Narayan wakes up the call this the moment that the world becomes into being. Narayan is known as a great and when he sleeps the world does not exist. I find that a bit extreme. It made sense whenever the video talked about the urgency for the Greeks to be heroes, the Christians to be saved and the Muslims to surrender to their god. The urgency is there because these religions do not believe in re-birth. Therefore, they all feel the need to be accomplished in the eyes of their god while they are here on earth. However, Hindus believe in re-birth! 

I find it interesting that Narayan sleeps on an ocean of still milk. Narayan is quite powerful in the world of Hindu gods. The milk represents possibilities and all things emerge from the milk when Narayan opens his eyes. What I am understanding from the video is when Narayan sleeps all things are still and do not exist. The people that are still awake while he is sleeping is not aware of the world that exist around him. Narayan is an observer. Therefore when he is sleep nothing is observed. In my retelling  of this story I think it would be cool to talk about the life of Narayan and his friends and make a story about how things or events did not exist unless Narayan saw it.

Introduction To a Future Pharmacists

Hello bloggers! My name is Taylor Calvert and I am a senior in the College of Arts and Sciences. My majors are Chemical Biosciences, Pre-Pharmacy and a Spanish minor. The coolest thing about my major is I am learning about the human body everyday. I personally think everyone needs to know more about the human body to properly take care of themselves. The cool thing about having a Spanish minor is being able to communicate with a larger audience. The best class I took last semester is Human Anatomy because I learned so much about the human body hands on. I was grateful to have the opportunity to work on a cadaver, to see what the inside of our bodies really look like. I absolutely love to cook and to garden in my spare time! Ever since I was a little girl I have always loved flowers. My grandmother and I would always spend time gardening together.                                                                                 personal photo: grandmothers garden My favorite flow

His strength and power trembles the Earth when he roars. He earned his roar over the Kingdom by providing the Fountain of Health to the animals who were plagued by sickness and death. These animals now have freedom from sickness and diseases and for that the Lion King received immeasurable strength and power. Whomever confronts him with the desire to fight and defeat him is plagued with terrible diseases for the rest of their lives. Milo, the King of Elephants and brother of Harold approached him and said, " Brother, there is an evil one that is challenging you. He goes by the name Razor. He will be here before dawn."
