Radhekrishna to all,

We started with the method of blowing the conch in our previous post. Let us know more about the same in this post.

B. When blowing the conch, close the eyes and cultivate a bhav that the marak (destroyer) frequencies of the unmanifest form of God are being received from above.

C. Blowing of the conch in a single breath: As far as possible, take a deep breath and fill the lungs with air, and then blow the conch in a single breath. This way the resonance of the vibrations (the resonance of subtle sound in the environment) lasts for a longer period. Due to the strength of the sound vibrations in the resonance, it becomes possible to tear apart the black covering surrounding the aerial body of the negative energies in the vicinity in a short time.

D. The sound of the conch should go from a low to a high pitch: When blowing the conch, the sound should start from a low and go to a high pitch which should be maintained till the conch-blower stops.

E. Manifestation of negative energies due to the sound of the conch: Due to the sound energy generated by blowing the conch, subtler frequencies flowing down from the universe get activated. They cause disintegration of raja-tama particles in the atmosphere within a short time. Due to the momentum of frequencies of sound energy emanating from the conch, there is friction between raja–tama particles, resulting in subtle flames. As a result the sheath around the aerial bodies of negative energies starts to burn. That is why negative energies are unable to tolerate the sound of a conch. They are compelled to manifest because of this sound.

That concludes the topic for the fortnight. In out next post we shall look at a new question on another hindu ritual.

Section II: Information about Indian herbs

In this post let us know about Sirka, also known as Vinegar in English.

1. It is prepared from sugarcane and rose apple (Jamrun)

2. It alleviates bilious tumors

3. Its used extensively in salads

4. It acts as a prophylactic against cholera and intestinal infections

5. Headache due to heat is alleviated by washing the forehead in rosewater mixed with vinegar

6. It’s an antidote for parasites infesting ears

7. It also relieves nausea and vomiting

That concludes the topic for the fortnight. Till the next post on 6th August, Radhekrishna!

Radhekrishna Dear Readers,

In the past four posts, we have seen the significance of the conch in Hindu traditions. In this months posts we conclude the topic.

The conch is placed at the altar in temples and homes next to the Lord as a symbol of Naada Brahma (Truth), the Vedas, Om, dharma, victory and auspiciousness. It is often used to offer devotees thirtha (sanctified water) to raise their minds to the highest Truth. It is worshipped with the following verse.

Twam puraa saagarot pannaha

Vishnunaa vidhrutahakare

Devaischa poojitha sarvahi

Panchjanya namostu te

Salutations to Panchajanya

the conch born of the ocean

Held in the hand of Lord Vishnu

and worshipped by all devaas

Let us know about the method in which the conch should be blown in this post.

The person blowing the conch should raise his neck upwards (towards God) and fully concentrate on the task at hand. When blowing the conch, the eyes should be closed and a spiritual emotion should be nurtured that one is beckoning the subtler frequencies of the unmanifest, destroyer form of God. This posture activates the Sushumnanadi (Central Channel) in the body of the conch-blower. It also helps in maintaining a perfect balance between the raja-tama particles in the frequencies related to the absolute air and absolute fire elements that emanate from the mouth. Thus, as per the requirement - the savior and destroyer principles of the Deity get activated.

…. to be continued

Section II: Information about Indian herbs

In this post let us know about the herb called as Shahdevi, also known as Country Mellow in English and Sida Rhombifolia in Latin.

1. It’s a wild-growing herb found in sugar cane and maize fields

2. It’s an excellent blood purifier

3. It is used in most prescriptions for fevers and for dealing with bleeding from throat or the chest cavity

That concludes the post for the fortnight. Till the next post on 22nd July, Radhekrishna!
