Sanskriti App - Treasure Trove of our Priceless Heritage
From the dawn of civilization, man has sought refuge from his troubles through various means. The Sanskriti App is the ultimate stress buster for the 21st-century Indian. And there is a lot of stress today everywhere.
Most Social Media groups these days resemble battlegrounds. Every news channel debate is a war zone minus the actual guns. Urban areas with pigeonholes for every human resident are prescriptions for stress. Traffic conditions across the country are a nightmare. Old age homes are crowded, children are locked in, and divorce courts are full. And then there is Covid19 with all the associated issues: fear, full hospitals, and shortages of Oxygen, Medicines, Vaccines, and qualified people. In this veritable desert storm of a combination of lethal stress-inducing factors comes the promise of an oasis: The Sanskriti App.
The App is from the same stable as MapmyIndia, India’s very own trusted Mapping partner for over 28 years. Just as over 28 years ago, MapmyIndia stepped in to meet the country’s growing demand for trustworthy maps and data, so has the Sanskriti App stepped in today to handhold the countrymen –and women - in these very trying times.
So what does App contain? We will talk about mythological tales in a bit but let us start by busting a myth. It is often said that India is divided by Religion. Totally wrong. In fact, if anything, India is united by a spirituality which cuts across all Religions. Don’t take our word for it; look at what the latest PEW survey says. In a survey conducted in late 2019, covering 29,999 individuals across the country, found that an overwhelming 84% of people say that to be truly Indian, it is very important to respect all religions. That is the spiritual enlightenment that unites India and it is well reflected in the App Content. Here is a short list of what you will find:
Houses of Gods: The App covers Places of Worship belonging to all religions in India. Temples, Mosques, Gurudwaras, Churches, Monasteries and Synagogues –they are all there in the App. Not just the pictures, you will find a lot of historical, architectural and, of course, geographical information about all the places
Prayers: Devotional music of every type you can think of, Bhajans, Ardas, Sufi Music, Chants of different types, they are all there in the App.
Yatras: The App has loads of information on all the popular pilgrimages like Char Dham Yatra, Asthavinayak Yatra, 12 Jyotirling Yatra, and many others. But that is not all; the App also has information of real practical value to a yatri: how to reach, where to stay, pooja timings at specific places to make the yatra as comfortable as possible.
Nearby Places: Wherever you may be, the App alerts you to places of interest nearby like Ashrams or Meditation centers that match your preferences.
Mood Medicine: Words of wise men, Yogis and Gurus through the ages, a perfect pick-up for your mood if you happen to be feeling blue.
Nerd Home: The reading material in the App could be the envy of a library and nerds would feel perfectly at home here.
Cultural Art and Maps: There is a visual representation of our Country’s rich Heritage and Culture through Maps.
Plan Your Trip: The app lets you plan your trip, making your pilgrimage convenient.
But that is not all. The App also has daily updates on matters vital to many: Sunrise and Sunset timings at your location, astrological forecasts, numerological readings, daily Panchang, auspicious times, mythological tales of the day, upcoming festivals, events nearby, historical and natural attractions nearby and information from States.
Now check out The App, the true storehouse of knowledge about this true wealth of Indian heritage, and learn more about the why and how of each of these. You will surely agree that it is one App where the tagline is fully justified: मन की शांति, जब चाहो, जहाँ चाहो.
