mistakes in bible

mistakes in the bible 1. The Nature of mankind - inherently good or evil? Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Gen 8: 21 The LORD ......... said in his heart: "Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from childhood. Mankind is created in the image of God but is incorrigibly evil from childhood? 2. Who came first man or beast? [beasts] Gen 1:25.26 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps upon the earth after his kind; and God saw that it was good.

Astha digpalakas (introduction)

I wanted to make this series from a very long time . Every God which we worship has an actual presence in this world, it's not about some man controlling the nature from heaven..  Our scriptures always talks about the present forces in colourful form, in our culture creator is always present in the creation.

loka palakas ( guardian deities ) : INDRA

Indra is the king of the gods and was one of the major deities of the Rig Veda.

Indra represents the all pervading electric energy (vidyut śakti), he is the ruler of the storm but also the cause of fertility.

He has all the exuberance of youth and is addicted to pleasure and intoxicants. He has numerous love-affairs and sends Apsaras to disturb the meditation of sages. The famous stories of asuras attacking Indra in the deval
