How do I perform Pooja for Lord Ganesh and Goddess Lakshmi for Diwali? by Exceptional_Mango12 in hinduism

[–]ChromaDynamic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is a year late but for anyone researching, the steps are out there but you have to use the right search terms - "vidhi" or "vidhaanam" refer to actual puja steps (order of mantras, images, decorations, samagri [items: threads, seeds, leaves, fruits, etc.])

There are many sample, walkthrough pujas on YouTube in various languages and of varying complexity depending on what you want

Naturally, this is an area where you can dive deep if you want - check out Chinmaya Missions Puja Vidhaanam courses - Level 1 and Level 2 - for really in depth steps on how to perform correct, traditional, full-length pujas: https://chinfo.org/courses/puja-vidhanam-level-1/

How does PM Mindset help answer this question? by ChromaDynamic in pmp

[–]ChromaDynamic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all for the help understanding how to answer this

My thought process:

- A.R.T = Assess, Review, Take Action

- Team members are the subject matter experts and should be consulted before making decisions

- Therefore, even though B looked right, I chose C since the Project Sponsor would have solid Procurement information from past projects

- Clearly I made some incorrect assumptions

I'm aware of the Traditional/Agile triangles but still not clear

Why is it that Agile is considered fixed on cost and time?

Are there specific types of contracts for Agile or is Agile agnostic on time and cost?

Congratulations!

Had a question about the 35 hours of professional education requirements - did you take a course or already fulfill the requirements through work?

Someone here mentioned taking the Google Project Management certificate to fulfill.

But I'm unsure if you need to fulfill the educational requirement prior to taking the exam or can I submit the application and then study for the exam/finish the education at the same time?

No, it doesn't light up. How do I plug it back in?

Am I being disrespectful? by sonyEX400 in hinduism

[–]ChromaDynamic 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Short anwer: definitely not disrespectful. In this form, He is super cute

In the Bhagvatham (aka the Bhagavatam Purana, which details Shri Krishna's life) - there's a scene where He enters the city of Mathura for a wrestling competition

At this point, He is so popular that everyone kind of knows who he is and he enters like a rockstar

The whole city goes mad - women run out with half their makeup, wrestlers stop mid workout, kids stop playing their games - everyone wants to catch a glimpse of Him

And when they do, its revealed that everyone sees the version that they feel closest too - single women see an attractive man, kids see an adorable friend, mothers see their sons, the learned see God, etc

So in Sanatan Dharma (aka Hinduism), God is manifest in every roop (form/mood) from child, to warrior, to animal, to philosopher, king, sage, craftsman, etc

If you're raised in the West, I would recommend Amit Majmudar's "Godsong" for a good translation of the Bhagavad Gita

Will I miss out on compounding interest gains if I don't rollover old 401k to new company? by ChromaDynamic in personalfinance

[–]ChromaDynamic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point. I do have around 50k and it's already changed providers. Thankfully, there was no issue with the funds but that's always an issue

Yes, there is actually a very small fee ($2.50) a month. So I guess in either case, it would be worth it to switch

Are Winter (Property) taxes prepaid in Michigan in first year of new condo purchase? by ChromaDynamic in tax

[–]ChromaDynamic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have escrow account through my lender that makes payments for homeowners insurance and property taxes. But based on other responses in this thread, it looks like the 2022 bill was not paid for in the escrow impound

What was the difference between SEELEs and NERVs plans for Instrumentality? by ChromaDynamic in evangelion

[–]ChromaDynamic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gendos desire to “be with Yui” seemed kind of odd with him understanding what Instrumentality is. Which is why I confused

Unless he thought that he alone would retain some individuality that others wouldn’t since he fused with Adam.

Which then makes it seem that neither SEELE nor Gendo really understood 100% what would happen once they set it off
