😳Why❓❓❓

Why can’t Reserve Bank of India print more currency notes, as per people’s need?

People deposit their savings in banks. Banks lend this money in the form of loan to wannabe entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs invest them in their businesses. Business give salary to people and themselves earn money from customers. This earned money is income and it is again deposited in banks in the form of savings. Banks again lend the money… This is the money cycle and this is how the economy runs.

But few people who have unaccounted money which we call as black money. In other words money is earned but not deposited in banks and not accounted for tax purposes, so money cycle would be blocked. To overcome this, RBI established .

RBI follows Minimum Reserve System since 1956 of Rs. 200 crores in the form of gold coins, gold bullions and foreign currencies.

🛕 VEDIK GNAN

What is the story behind Lord Shiv having Ganga on his head?

According to Puranas: King named Bhagiratha, did thousand years of penance to please Lord Brahma, for River Ganga to come to Earth. He wanted the Holy River Ganga to descend from heaven to Earth and release his 60000 ancestors from the curse of Saint Kapila at Patalu lok, so that the dead people could rise to heaven ( this could be possible only with offering of Niravapanjali ( the Vedic rituals performed after death), with the sacred Ganga river, which was at that time in Heaven.

And after his successful penance, Ganga had to be released from heaven to Earth, but Lord Brahma says that, no one could withstand the power of Ganga force other than God Shiva. He again pray Lord Shiv to receive on his head and save the earth from the heavy force of Ganga from heaven, So, Shiva received Ganga in his matted locks (hair), and released her from His hair in seven streams, and thus became Gangadhara .

Since Ganga , has descended from heaven to Earth , so is considered the most sacred river and Ganga bath, removes all your sins and thus purifies the people. Pilgrims immerse the ashes of their kin in the Ganga River , which is believed to grant them moksha. Ganga is the only river , which flows in the three worlds , heaven, Earth and Patala (netherworld ).

🤔 How …….. ⁉

What is the ring of light around the sun called?

A Sun halo is caused by the refraction, reflection, and dispersion of light through ice particles suspended within thin, wispy, high altitude cirrus or cirrostratus clouds. As light passes through these hexagon-shaped ice crystals, it is bent at a 22° angle, creating a circular halo around the Sun.

Sunlight through the ice crystals causes the light to split, or be refracted. When at just the right angle, it causes us to see the halo. The same thin clouds can cause a ring, or halo, around the moon at night.
