Dear Readers,

Radhekrishna!

In the last article we touched upon an Acupressure technique with the help of which we could control the body and the nervous system in times when we have fear or are scared of something (ghostly fears etc) and consequently prevent a shock, heart attack, nervous breakdown, paralysis attack etc. We concluded by saying that there is a precaution to be observed while following the technique. Let's know about that in detail in this article.

Assume that in the technique mentioned, the ends of copper wrings were closed in shape, then let us the consequence of it.

In that case, the circuit will be open to electricity. This means the negative and positive terminal of the copper wrings were connected together. So, the electricity will be flowing just like the passage in a battery. Hence, the stored energy at the wrist point will pass on to the body. Then from the body, it will once again pass to the earth. This means, indirectly we are adding fuel to the fire. The ghostly energy will gain that power which has got passed on to the earth. This means the attack will be more. (The attack of ghost will be more). In order to avoid it, the ends of the copper wrings were kept open.

This is the scientific relevance of wearing the copper bracelet in the wrist, to drive away the ghosts in the forest.

Because when the wrings were open, the energy was not allowed to flow through the body to the earth. As a result the ghostly energy had no source of obtaining further energy.

Secondly, as a result of the same, the person wearing that copper bracelet could annul the ghostly energy with the help of the energy that he gained with the help of Acupressure technique that was enabled because of the bracelet.

GHOST represents the excess amount of negative energy (universal energy) in a particular place, which may pass on to our body. The acupressure point corresponds to annulling this excess energy. Ultimately thus the ghosts are nothing but reservoirs of negative energy.

So dear readers, doesn’t this sound astounding, fascinating? But then as it's rightly said, that 'Truth is stranger than fiction'. All these facts are not bed–time stories or bluff, but these are realities which seem like tales just because of the ignorance of the people. And it’s the light of Hinduism which can remove this darkness of ignorance. So come, join us and be a part of Radhekrishna Sathsangam and feel the positive change in your life and also the eternal bliss!

Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna!

In this article we will unfold the reasoning behind the words of the rishis which we mentioned in the previous article. They used to wear a bracelet around the wrist and used to claim that 'it would protect them from evil eyes'.

To explain the reason, firstly let's go back to Acupressure,

In Acupressure, there is a specific point to overcome fear, tension and anxiety.

Location: Along the most distal crease of wrist, on the ulna side, medial to tendon.

By giving pressure on this point for 3 minutes, one can be relieved of fear, tension and anxiety. This point actually strengthens the nervous system and balances the energy flow in the body and brings in the equilibrium.

The wrist band (bracelet) used by RISHI’S were made of copper (conductor of electricity) with projections in the form a ball on either side with an open end.

Note: The ends of the bracelet were kept open.

This specific point where the ends of bracelet touches the wrist, exactly coincide with the acupressure point corresponding to fear, tension and anxiety. Thus, by wearing the bracelet, they were actually giving hard pressure to relieve the fear from their mind.

The fear corresponds to excess energy flow (shi fluid) to a specific part of the body, at the expense of distribution to other parts of the body (As per acupressure).

This means, the excess energy flow in the body, passes to the wrist. The copper, which is a good conductor of electricity, absorbs this excess energy and passes it, to the specific acupressure point in the wrist. So, this energy balances the tension. In the, so called ghost affliction, people suffer from fits, strokes, sudden stoppage of speech, sudden paralytic attack of a particular part of a body without any pathological evidence. All these things correspond to sudden excess flow of universal energy from the earth to the human body.

Here the excess energy flow is compensated and properly circulated in to the body.
The circulation of energy flow brings in the equilibrium.

However there is a caution that one needs to observe in the above technique. Failing to observe that caution can be more fatalistic! To know about that caution, wait till the next article.

Till then Radhekrishna!

Yoga, Acupressure and Science

Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna!

In this article we will continue our discussion on 'Nexus between Acupressure and Hinduism'. We will describe an Asana from Hinduism that deals with Acupressure.

In yoga and during meditation, an ASANA CALLED PADHMASANA is formed by folding the legs and keeping the spine and neck erect. This resembles lotus – PADHMAM, IN SANSKRIT. Hence the name PADHMASANA. Here the left leg is kept above the right leg, putting a pressure on the right leg below the knee- cap.

This particular point has a significance towards acupressure.

Location: About 3 inches above the medial ankle, behind the tibia is the acupressure point.
When you seat in PADHMASANA CORRECTLY, the pressure will be at this point.

This acupressure point corresponds to:

Curing of diseases like – Dysmenorrhea, Amenorrhea, Menorrhagia, Indigestion, Dyspnoea, Sex organ related diseases, sleeplessness, uterus pints (Corresponding to Uterus complaints). The pressure kept at this point, keeps the mind clean. It inhibits and checks the sexual cravings, which may distract the devotion, thereby improving the power of devotion ultimately leading to a divine bliss.

Thus the ASANA HELPS IN SOLVING THE PROBLEMS RELATED TO THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM OF HUMAN BEINGS.

The ancient RISHI’s were good at gynecology. Don’t you agree?

So you see dear readers, there are so many unknown secrets in Hinduism! In todays world, majority of the so called 'Doctors' who have studied a lot of Science, even they, will not be able to answer the above issues. So if such knowledge is known to the people, then where would be the need to have doctors?

The RISHI’S used to wear a bracelet around the wrist in the hand. They used to say,
This will protect us from the evil eyes (So, called ghost affliction).

By listening to such words, people today will laugh! In this Y2K age, are you speaking about Black Magic! would be the reply.

The present day Psychiatrists proclaim that these are due to nervous deficiency. The nerve impulses need to be strengthened to relieve from the ailments.

But actually there was some hidden science in the words of the rishis. What was it exactly? Why did they claim that? If and how was it linked to the topic of Acupressure that we are discussing now? Let's know that in our next article.

Electromagnetism, Acupressure and Hinduism

JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG

Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna!

So you all must be eager to know that how can a human being store the electromagnetic energy gained by him through meditation?

This process is described as below. All of you must be knowing how a battery works through the negative and positive terminals. So in a similar manner, this process also works. Read on to know about the same.

In meditation, a MUDHRA (Symbolism) CALLED CHINMUDHRA IS MUCH PRONOUNCED. Here a circle is formed by folding the index finger and the thumb.

The index finger represents the negative terminal and the thumb represents the positive terminal.This means the battery (our body current) is charged through the positive and negative terminal.

In Acupressure, the tip of each finger represents the ENERGY POINT. (Applicable to index finger also). The thumb represents the MENTAL NERVES. The bottom side of the thumb represents the backbone and the spinal chord along with the neck.

In meditation, the spine should be erect. The CHINMUDHRA, representing a closed circuit of battery, passes the power of meditation, in the form of electric impulses in to the body. The spinal chord conducts the nerve impulses and controls the motor nerves, which are the carrier of electric signals in to the body. Now, the Acupressure points, namely the TIP OF INDEX FINGER and the TIP OF THUMB, automatically redirects the stored energy of meditation in to the body. (Note, the right hand is kept in CHIN MUDHRA.)

The CHINMUDHRA HAS A SPECIFIC SIGNIFICANCE TO ACCUPRESSURE.

In the left hand, one more MUDHRA IS CREATED by stretching the thumb, index finger, little finger. (Remaining 2 fingers are folded.). This MUDHRA almost resembles the FLEMING’S RULE.

Thus our body turns out to be an electromagnet.

The energy is stored in the body through the CHIN MUDHRA IN THE RIGHT HAND.

The body is made as an electro magnet without appropriate orientation (direction) through the above mentioned MUDHRA, in the LEFT HAND.

Thus the electricity starts flowing. In the feet, the toes represents the positive terminal and the finger next to it, represents the negative terminal. A closed circuit of battery (body current) is created in the body. Through this circuit, the body current will drain out to earth. To avoid it, a PADHARAKSHAI (Wooden Slipper) is kept in the feet. This wood will break the circuit. Hence the energy will not be drained out.

We will discuss about this in our next article. Till then Radhekrishna!

Electromagnet and Hinduism

Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna!

We explained you a few things related to electromagnetism in the previous article. In this article let's see how its possible to establish a link of those things with Hinduism.

Till now we have been considering the electro magnetic powers possessed by non–living things or objects.
But dear readers, is it known to you all, that even living things possess the electromagnetic powers? How does one acquire the power? Read on to know it.

Yes its true! The human body is a great electromagnet! Also, the earth is a great electromagnet!

The energy released by the actions of people, which may be positive or negative, releases an electric impulse in to the cosmos. Energy is released by us through each and every action that we perform. When we talk to people, energy is released, when we quarrel with anyone energy is released, when we take out frustration on something or someone energy is released etc. This energy is termed as positive or negative on the basis of the action, in each case. These electric impulses collectively form an electric field and enter the earth.

When the electricity passes through the earth, the earth acquires a magnetic filed around it. (By Flemings Rule – Electricity will create a magnetic field around the conducting medium. Refer our previous article for Flemings Rule.)

This magnetic field acts, in the north south direction. Thus earth is a great electromagnet.

Also there are millions and millions of people. So, the electricity stored will be millions and millions of electron volts in their bodies.

Consider this example to understand how electromagnetic powers are there in human beings.
A RISHI (sage) in meditation:
An Iron rod kept near the magnet acquires magnetic power. But, at the loss of the magnet, the iron loses the magnetic power once again.
The same thing happens here. The earth acts as the magnet. The RISHI acts as an iron piece. The RISHI acquires the magnetic power from the earth through meditation. When he becomes thoroughly magnetized by the power of earth, he acquires the immense power of millions and millions of electron volts. This means, he is all powerful – like earth.

But then, as per electromagnet theory, when this electricity passage is stopped, then automatically, the magnetic power also gets lost. (If you can recollect the example of an electric bell mentioned in the previous article.) So, this means the electricity from the earth should pass through the body continuously. The energy gathered from the earth should not be drained out. Yes! That’s the main and most important point. The energy attained by a person should not get drained away.

There are techniques which the Rishi's or sages of ancient India knew to prevent such energy from draining out of their body. What are those techniques? Eager to know? Wait till our next posting to know about the same.

Till then Radhekrishna.
Wishing all our readers a belated Happy Holi!
Enjoy this Holi in a unique way by chanting the name of Radhekrishna and enjoy the eternal bliss.

The concept of an electromagnet

JAY SHREE POOJYASHREE SHREE AMMA
JAY MAHAN BRAHMASHREE GOPALAVALLIDASAR
JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG

Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna!

The agenda of this article is to explain a few concepts related to electromagnetism.
In the concept of electromagnetism, Flemings Left Hand Rule and Flemings Right Hand Rule play a significant role.

They explain the relationship between

1) The Conductor
2) Electricity
3) Magnetism.

The concept which lies here is, when electricity passes through the conducting medium (conductor), a magnetic filed is created around it.

For the purpose of understanding this rule, hold your left hand as follows:

The thumb pointing upwards and the index finger pointing in a direction parallel to the ground. The other fingers are closed in the palm. (These directions are for a person standing on the ground in an upright vertical position.)

Supposing the direction in which the electricity was conducted through the conducting medium was represented in the direction of index finger, and if the magnetic field is represented in the direction of say towards the little finger, then the direction in which the electricity will be flowing, can be represented as the direction of thumb pointing upwards.

Electromagnet – the concept behind this is – When a conducting body attains magnetic power, on passage of electric current through it, then that body is called as electromagnet. However, the body loses the magnetic power, when the passage of electric current is stopped.

Let us take a very practical and day to day example on this concept. All of us are very well aware of the door bell. The door bell in our house works on this principle. When we press the button, the electricity passes to the magnet. The magnet gets magnetic power through the electricity. It starts vibrating. It (the magnet) hits, the bell and creates the sound. When we release our fingers, the passage of electricity is stopped. The magnet loses the magnetic power. So, it does not vibrate. So, the magnet does not hit the bell and the bell remains in rest. As a result no sound is produced.

In short, when current is on, the magnetic power is on.
In short, when the current is off, the magnetic power is off.

Note: The term current refers to the passing of electricity through it.
This is what electromagnetism is.

Let us continue discussions on this concept in the next article. We will concentrate on linking this topic with Hinduism. This is what the main purpose of our blog is; proving that all the concepts that science has to offer are a part of the great parcel named 'Hinduism'.

Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna!

We explained the link of concepts of Permutations and Combinations with the design or the manner in which the ancient hindu scriptures have been written. We will continue with a few more examples of such scriptures, scripted scientifically.

PURANAS:

There are 18 PURANA’S. Each of them has Slokhas equivalent to RAMAYANAM.
In our previous article we mentioned that there are 24000 shlokas in RAMAYANAM. So, the total number of shlokas comprising the 18 PURANAS would be 24,000 * 18 = 412,000 shlokas.

CHANDHA’S are called CHANDHAI in Tamil. NALAYIRA DHIVYA PRABHANDHAM has 4,000 Slokhas. Calculate the 2ⁿ value for this also in the same manner as was explained in our previous article.

There are types in metrical chanting (chanting in chandha's). The Scriptures are written and recited only in CHANDHA’S. The meters or types of Chandha's are GAYATHRI, ANUSHTUP, TRISHTUP, BRIHATHI, BHANGHTHI.

The words namely Logarithm (Log Book), e^x Series (Exponential Series), Gregories Series(Trignometric Series), PERMUTAION and COMBINATION are known to mathematics students. They are all accepted theorems and series. The values given in them are accepted throughout the world by renowned scientists.

In the same way, the above meters were in practice in olden days belonging to RISHI’S.
Can any maths student say, 2ⁿ is child play and foolish?
Can any knowledgeable man say CHANDHA’S of VEDHA’S, are outdated? NO WAY.

Let us go back a bit and refer to the articles which contained the description of the great alwar, 'Nammalwar'. We mentioned in the article as to how; when Nammalwar was born, and the Sadam Vayu (the illusion of Maya) approached NAMMALWAR, it was driven away by the loud sound called 'Hungaram' that came out from NAMMALWAR's mouth. NAMMALWAR represents the incarnation of BHAGAVAN. The positive powers acquired through the chanting of the MANTHRA’S in the Chandha's (metrical way of chanting) formed a magnetic field around him. This magnetic filed (SUKSHMA SAREERAM) PAVED WAY FOR THE NEW BIRTH IN THE FORM OF NAMMALWAR. The immense power acquired and passed from the previous birth to this birth, had made him (NAMMALWAR) all powerful. In his previous birth's Nammalwar had earned a lot of positive energy and virtues due to such metrical chanting. This power was passed on to him in his birth as Nammalwar. That’s the reason why he had the strength to out beat the negative magnetic field as imposed by the Sadam Vayu.

This is the meaning behind the words… NAMMALWAR EXPELLED THE SADAM VAYU AND REMAINED UNAFFECTED BY MAYA.

A request to all our readers to please take the extra effort in reading the article on The great Nammalwar posted a few weeks earlier in order to appreciate the link of that article with this current topic on Metrical Chanting.

Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna!

We took you over to an altogether new topic in the last article when we started with
'The link between Chanting (the Lord's name) and Science'. It's known to you all now that Chanting also has to be done in a very systematic and scientific manner. It has to be 'Metrical chanting of a syncronised wavelength'. We even went ahead to quote a few examples of the same. In this article we continue with other such examples.

RAMAYANAM: It has 24,000 Slokhas. For RAMAYANAM, supposing say each Slokha has 8 words, then n = 24,000*8 = 1, 92, 000.
Then 2ⁿ = 2^1,92,000 = 2*2*2*…multiply up to 1,92,000 times.

BHAGAVATHAM: It has 18,000 Slokhas. For BHAGAVATHAM, supposing say each Slokha has 15 words approximately, then n = 18,000*15 = 2,70,000 words.
Then 2ⁿ = 2^2,70,000 = 2*2*2* … multiply up to 2,70,000 times.

MAHABHARATHAM: It has 1,00,000 Slokhas each of approximately 10 words, then
n = 1,00,000 *10 = 10,00,000 words.
Then 2ⁿ = 2^10,00,000 = 2*2*2*…multiply up to 10,00,000 times.

Now take your scientific calculator and operate x^y function.

Put x= 2, y = 1,92,000 = 2^1,92,000, for RAMAYANAM.

Put x = 2, y = 2,70,000 = 2^2,70,000 for BHAGAVATHAM.

Put x = 2, y = 10,00,000 = 2^10,00,000 for MAHABHARATHAM.

Find the answers of 2ⁿ for yourself.

For all those who are unaware: A scientific calculator has many such functions which the normal commercial calculator does not have. In the scientific calculator it's quite easy to find out the exponential values (2ⁿ types).

The purpose of this topic is to let the readers know the richness and depth of the sacred hindu culture. People ignorantly say that this culture is outdated. But then such ignorance can only be removed if the light of knowledge is flashed on such ignorance. The knowledge of the science that is present in Hinduism. The Vedas as well as the above mentioned scriptures like Ramayanam, Mahabharatham and Bhagvatham which are one of the important components of the Hindu culture have all been written or one can say designed in a very scientific way. There also exists a prescribed way of reciting the same. But its our misfortune that very few people are there now at present who have the knowledge regarding the same. Because not many would, if asked, opt to learn this Science hidden behind the proper recitation of scriptures and the study of the way the scriptures have been designed etc.

We will continue our discussions in the next article. Till then Radhekrishna!

Chanting and Science

JAY SHREE POOJYASHREE SHREE AMMA
JAY MAHAN BRAHMASHREE GOPALAVALLIDASAR
JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG

Dear Readers,

Radhekrishna. We shall explain you in this article the importance of chanting and the science that is present in the method of chanting. We will also explain as to why its said that chanting makes one powerful.

CHANTING OR NAMA JAPAM IS METRICAL CHANTING of SYNCHRONIZED WAVELENGTH.

There is something known as 'permutations and combinations' in mathematics.
For n= some value, there will be 2ⁿ combinations (2 multiplied by itself ….n times).
If n = 100, then there will be 2¹⁰⁰ combinations (2 multiplied by itself…. Up to 100 times.)

The VEDA’S are done and recited only in CHANDHA’S (METRICAL CHANTING)
i.e. the theory of PERMUTATIONS AND COMBINATIONS are used to design and recite the scriptures like Vedas.

In RIG VEDHAM, there are 1064 hymns. The hymns are composed in the GAYATHRI CHANDHA. (It is a meter of 24 letters in 3 parts) or ANUSHTUP CHANDHA (It is a meter of 16 letters in 2 parts).

Note that the word CHANDHA means metrical chanting which automatically means all permutation and combinations. (2ⁿ combinations).

Supposing, the hymns are in GAYATHRI CHANDA

THEN FOR THE 1064 HYMNS EACH HAVING 24 LETTERS IN THEM.
= 1064* 24 LETTERS = 25, 536 LETTERS.

If n = 25,536, then the permutation and combination will be 2²⁵⁵³⁶ = 2*2*2* …. Multiply Up to 25, 536 times.

Now, supposing the hymns are in ANUSHTUP meter,

THEN FOR THE 1064 HYMNS EACH HAVING 16 LETTERS IN THEM.
= 1064* 16 LETTERS = 17,724 LETTERS.

If n = 17,724, then 2ⁿ = 2¹⁷⁷²⁴ = 2*2* 2* …multiply up to 17,724 times.

Each of the above figures will be a huge value.
Any mathematics student will accept permutation and combination.
In the same way any devotee will accept CHANDHA’S.

If 2ⁿ is a superstition in mathematics, then CHNADHA’S is a mythology in Hinduism. Is it Superstition?

Some insight into 'Self-Realisation'

JAY SHREE POOJYASHREE SHREE AMMA
JAY MAHAN BRAHMASHREE GOPALAVALLIDASAR
JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG

Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna once again!

If you can recollect, then we explained the meaning of the terms such as 'Sukshma Shareeram', 'Pithru Yagnam', 'Sadam Vayu' etc in our precious article. We hope the meaning of these terms is clear now. Continuing from where we concluded the previous article,

When this SUKSHMA SAREERAM (SADAM VAYU) approached 'Nammalvar', HE drove away the VAYU by the POWER OF HUNGARAM (A form of Nama Japam i.e. chanting).

Now let us discuss as to what exactly is meant by liberation or self realization? How can one achieve this state of being?

To attain this state, the first and foremost prerequisite is remaining neutral. (Remember the feature of zero? Neither Positive nor Negative?).

It is not possible to achieve this state if one keeps accumulating the positive and negative energies by performing good and evil deeds respectively; i.e. one cannot attain liberation by adding PUNYAM (Positive Energy). One cannot attain liberation by subtracting PAPAM (Negative Energy).

One can attain liberation only through achieving equilibrium, between PUNYAM and PAPAM. The neutral state represents the MUKTHI. The state of equilibrium attained by annulling the positive and negative energy accumulated in the body, by virtue of actions, will bring in a NEUTRAL STATE. This neutral state is called as MUKTHI.

At this stage, a person begins to see one's own reflection in each and every living and non–living thing i.e. he begins to appreciate 'that which is common' in all the things, be it living or non–living; that common thing being the existence of Lord Krishna in it. An example from the glorious hindu tradition would be that of Bhakta Prahlad. When asked by his father the great demon Hiranyakashyap as to where is his Hero Lord Hari, Prahlad very aptly replies, he's everywhere! in me, in you, in the plants, in the pillar, everywhere. This state attained by the child 'Prahlad' is self–realization. When one's soul starts feeling the sanctity of Lord everywhere, there is no room left for miseries, sorrow, jealousy, materialistic pleasures, physical pain etc. All that is left is eternal bliss. In this stage, the mind remains detached from parts of the human life like money, social status, prestigious post in any job, pleasures of a family life, satisfaction of the sensory organs etc.

IT IS TO BE NOTED HERE THAT 'BEING DETACHED' DOES NOT MEAN ABSTAINING FROM ACHIEVING OR OBTAINING THE ABOVE THINGS. IT MEANS THAT 'NOT LETTING ONESELF GET AFFECTED', BY THE GAINS OR LOSSES OCCURING TO ONE IN THE PROCESS OF ACHIEVING THE ABOVE.

This also means that one has to treat success and defeat 'equally' which is a very difficult thing to adhere to. It's so natural to being happy in times of prosperity and grumbling in times of adversity. But that’s precisely the reason why not everyone attains this state! If it was so easy then everyone would have achieved it! But unfortunately its not so.

Going back to the Nammalvar Charitram,

The Alwar had driven out Sadam Vayu from affecting him in any manner.
He did so by the power of 'Hungaram'. Hungaram is a form of napajapam (chanting)
as said earlier.

So now let us discuss about the power of Namajapam (chanting)
Why do we keep telling time and again that do continuous chanting of Radhekrishna namam to get peace of mind? What power does it have? We will be discussing on this question in our forthcoming articles.

Till then Radhekrishna!

Linking an electromagnet with the soul

JAY SHREE POOJYASHREE SHREE AMMA
JAY MAHAN BRAHMASHREE GOPALAVALLIDASAR
JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG

Radhekrishna once again to all our readers.
We continue our discussion on the topic started in the previous article.
Following is a brief description of the soul.

The soul of living things is neutral. Just as the number zero is neither positive nor negative. The soul is devoid of punyam and paapam. It means that the good deeds and evil deeds performed by a person do not in any way affect the soul.

It is generally said in our Hindu culture that we reap in the same manner as we sow.
If a person uses his/her hands to steal something then depending upon facts and circumstances the person could reap the fruits in the following ways:

1. There might be a theft in the house of that person.
2. The stolen thing may get lost from the hands of that person.
3. The persons hand may get injured in an accident or the hands might get paralyzed etc

On the other hand, if a person uses the same hands to perform good deeds then he will reap equally good fruits for the same.

If a puppy (young one of a dog) has fallen in flowing water and is unable to swim its way out and if a person takes it out of that water then there will be a time when there would be someone else to lend a similar helping hand to the person who saved the puppy and that helping hand would bring the person out of trouble.

All this is like maths! 4 – 3 = 1, 5 – 8 = –3

Assume the first digit in each of the above two examples (4 and 5) to be the good deeds and the second digit (3 and 8) to be the evil deeds. The net effect of our good deeds (punyam) and our bad deeds (paapam) shall always decide our fate. More the number of good deeds and the lesser the number of bad deeds, the better it is and more the number of evil deeds and lesser the number of good deeds, the worse it is. So one must always try and be in the first category and not in the second category i.e. perform good deeds and avoid evil deeds.

So as one can observe that depending upon the magnitude of the deed the proportionate fruits will be reaped by the person.
The above examples can be applied to all the acts done by us. And the fruits of such acts if not reaped in the present birth gets carried forward to the next birth! So there is no escaping the rewards and punishments!
However there is an exception to all the above explanation. That exception is the soul.
The soul always remains unaffected by the good deeds and bad deeds performed by a person.
The punyam and paapam acquired by a person is the positive and negative energy respectively, accumulated by a person. This accumulation happens till the time the living thing gets salvation. Salvation is attained by a person when he undergoes self–realization i.e. becomes one with Lord Krishna. Till then at the end of each birth the accumulation of punyam and paapam form an envelope around the soul. When a living thing dies, the action of the soul of that living thing leaving the body happens. When the soul departs the body, this envelop also departs along with the soul. This envelope covering the departed soul is called as 'Sukshma Shareeram' (The invisible person).

For the sake of pleasing the 'Sukshma Shareeram' after the death of a person, we perform certain rituals. Its called as 'Pithru Yagnam'. It’s a divine ritual performed to please the departed soul. (For more explanation on this concept please go through the articles of our other blog Vedhapremamrutham at poojyashrishriamma.blogspot.com)
The 'Sukshma Shareeram' reaches another body. The energy disappearing from the dead
man reaches the newborn baby. When the soul enters the new body, the envelope of punyam and paapam also enters that body. The form in which this envelop enters the new body is called 'Sadam Vayu'.

Doesn’t this word sound familiar to the ear, dear readers? Yes of course it does. In our past articles we told you about 'Nammalwar Charitram' and its relation with scientific concepts. That’s where we mentioned about this word 'Sadam Vayu'.

Thus, dear readers, Sadam Vayu is the envelope of good and evil done by a person in all the previous births. This Sadam Vayu engulfs the life of each and every living thing in the Universe. Thus we are caught in the trap of Maya (illusion) of material life.

The living things do not remember what good deeds and evil deeds they have done in their previous births. Hence they can never predict whether something good is going to happen or something bad at any point in time in any birth of theirs. Hence all of us need to be extremely unattached to things and people dear to us because one never knows that how and when will one reap the fruits of one's good and evil actions performed in the previous births. Everything that happens to one in his lifetime needs to be taken as it comes by telling oneself that its a fruit of one's good and evil actions performed over the number of births and a conscious effort has to be made to perfrom more and more good deeds and avoid performing bad deeds. This cycle of addition of punyam and subtraction of paapam is called as 'Samasara Sagaram' (The endless ocean of birth and death) in Hinudism.

Do more and more chanting and realize the true bliss in life.
Till then Radhekrishna!

Linking an electromagnet with the soul

JAY SHREE POOJYASHREE SHREE AMMA
JAY MAHAN BRAHMASHREE GOPALAVALLIDASAR
JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG

Radhekrishna to all our readers!

Welcome once again to our blog on Science and Hinduism. If you have been regularly reading the articles then you must be remembering that in our previous article we mentioned about the great 'Alwar', Sadagopar and linked the incidents of his life with scientific concepts.

In this article let us see how the concept of an electromagnet can be linked with the soul of a living thing.

The soul represents the source of energy. When we say that 'Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; and that energy disappearing in one form appears in another form'; then here the term 'energy' is nothing but 'the soul' in spiritual terminology. The disappearing and reappearing of the energy is nothing but the cycle of birth and death. The soul enters the body at the time of his/her birth and leaves the body at the time of his/her death. This soul is unaffected by the punyam earned by a person by performing good deeds and also by the papam earned by a person by performing evil deeds.

Let us see how the soul behaves like an electromagnet.

As usual we first discuss the scientific phenomenon, which is normally known to people because of the knowledge of physical science and then proceed to show the correspondence of that phenomenon with Hinduism.

The concept is simple: When electricity passes through a conducting medium, it creates a magnetic field around it. But when the electricity goes out, the magnetic power also gets lost.

Our body corresponds to 'the thing that conducts electricity' and the soul corresponds to 'electricity'. When the soul enters a dead body, then that body gains life. When the soul enters the dead body, this action is nothing but the passing of electricity through a conducing medium. The body acquires 'magnetic power' in scientific terminology. This magnetic power creates vibration and the body starts moving.

Take an example: A magnet has magnetic power. When it is brought near an iron piece, then that iron piece becomes a 'temporary magnet'. By oscillating the magnet, through the power of magnetism, we can oscillate the iron piece. However one point needs to be remembered that if the magnet is taken away from the iron piece, then the iron piece would lose its power and would not move by itself.

Now let us begin our correspondence of this example with the terms of 'Hinduism'.

The magnet is nothing but the 'universal soul' or the 'super soul' i.e. Krishna; and the iron piece is nothing but the newborn baby that oscillates in the mother's womb. When the soul (magnetic power) is within the body (iron piece) then the iron piece can be moved by moving the magnet. In other words, a body to be able to move, perform actions, needs to have a soul in it. The soul gives the body, the power needed by it to live. Just as an iron piece stops moving when the magnet is taken away from it, so also a body is lifeless and can do nothing if there is no soul in it. When human beings self–proclaim themselves as 'God', its nothing but calling an iron piece as a 'temporary magnet'! Such people forget that as soon as the magnet is removed away, the iron piece will be useless; i.e. as soon as the soul leaves the human body, the body will be dead.They fail to realise the difference between a temporary magnet and a permanent magnet. Thus the lifespan of living things is nothing but the temporary period of time when the magnet is near the iron piece. The magnet can make the iron piece move as it wishes to. In the same way, our life is in the hands of Lord Krishna. He can make us dance to his tunes! He can decide our fate depending on our deeds. Do reflect upon all this till we come up with our next article.

Nammalwar Charitram and it's links with Science

JAY SHREE POOJYASHREE SHREE AMMA
JAY MAHAN BRAHMASHREE GOPALAVALLIDASAR
JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG

After the discussion on the topic relating to the transfer of energy through the blessings of a Sathguru, we bring a new topic to our readers in this article.

In this article we will tell you about the devotee 'Nammalwar' who comes from the proud hierarchy of the 'Alwars'. The Alwars have been true devotees of Lord Krishna and are an important part of the Vaishnava group (devotees of Krishna).

The above mentioned person namely Nammalwar was called as 'Sadagopar'. This name Sadagopar was given to this devotee because of an incident that occurred at the time of his birth. The word Sadagopar is formed from two words 'Sadam' and 'Gopar'. Sadam is a form of air (Vayu). Gopar means 'one who got angry on something'. Thus the word 'Sadagopar' means one who got angry on the Sadam Vayu. Sadam Vayu is nothing but Maya or illusion. This Vayu binds the mind to materialism. It creates attachments in the minds of human beings towards other human beings, non–living things and towards attainment of fame, power etc. It makes a person ignorant of the fact that what is actually permanent is the soul and that the body is temporary. When a person is under the influence of 'Sadam Vayu' he starts feeling that fulfilling the sensory organs is the most important thing to be done. Fulfillments of the needs of the soul are just ignored.

Sadagopar was the incarnation of Lord Himself. The Lord took the form of a new born baby in Nammalwar. At the time of Nammalwar's birth, the Sadam Vayu approached this baby i.e. The Lord. The Lord, when he saw this 'Sadam Vayu' approaching got angry, gave out a loud cry. This cry was called as 'Hungaram'. This sound propelled the Sadam Vayu. And as a result, the Sadam Vayu could not affect Him. So he was called Sadagopar. He thus during his entire life remained unaffected by the Maya (illusion).

WHAT IS THE SCIENTIFIC RELEVANCE OF SADAM VAYU?

The Sadam Vayu represents the Gravitaional Force 'g'. This Vayu binds the body to the earth. It is a force that attracts all the things towards itself. The Sadam Vayu is the parcel of the virtues and evils committed by us in our previous births. It is imposed upon us in our succeeding births. They affect us in our every birth.

The negative energies accumulated in the body creates a negative magnetic field around us. This accumulated negative magnetic field represents the sack of papam i.e. the evils done by us in our previous births and our current birth. The positive energies on the other hand create a positive magnetic field around us. The accumulated positive magnetic field represents the sack of Punyam i.e. the virtues earned by us in all our previous births and our current birth.

In the above context, the 'positive magnetic field' and 'negative magnetic field' are nothing but, in a layman's terms, the positive environment and negative environment that surrounds a person. This includes the family of a person, his/her friend circle, the area in which the person resides, the mentalities, attitudes, behaviors of all the above mentioned people etc. All this has an important bearing on the state of mind of a person.

For example: Take the case of 2 persons, one who is born in a family where the family members are not educated, are financially poorly placed they are not spiritually inclined, the friend circle of the person is such which indulges in habits like smoking, drinking etc. There is a need to earn for the family at an early age. The other is born in a family wherein all the members of that family are educated, are financially well placed, are spiritually inclined, the persons friend circle is also good in terms of spiritual inclination. Then there is a strong likelihood that the person born in the latter family will have a better scope for self–realization than the former one. Depending upon whether one's past birth's virtues are more or evils are more, one will get the birth in a suitable family and thereby a chance of self–realization.

Thus today's so called Y2K world is nothing but the magnetic fields of positive and negative energies. So now it's up to us to decide that which magnetic field do we want us to be surrounded with? The positive one or the negative one?

Think about this till we continue with the article in our next posting.

The blessings of a sathguru

JAY SHREE POOJYASHREE SHREE AMMA
JAY MAHAN BRAHMASHREE GOPALAVALLIDASAR
JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNA SATHSANG

A very happy, lighted, colourful and noiseless deepavali to all our readers.

Enjoy this deepavali in a manner different from the usual one. Let us Chant the name of Radhekrishna and surrender to the lotus feet of Gurujiamma and Mahan Brahmashree Gopalavallidasar and realize, the true meaning of the precious human life.

Let us, in this article see know that why is it propagated by Hinduism that the Shishyas (devotees) should surrender to the feet of a Sathguru and offer pranams at their feet.

The blessing of a Sathguru brings true wisdom in the mind of the Shishya. True wisdom is not something which can be obtained by reading hundreds and hundreds of books. The word 'wisdom' here is to be construed in a very different manner in the context. Here wisdom does not mean obtaining degrees like LLB, CA, MBA, MBBS etc. Nor does wisdom mean earning a lot of money.

The word wisdom is to be taken on an 'intellectual platform'. In today's world, we are dumping our mind with the dead facts as imposed by others. Wisdom here means striving towards the realization of the self which is different from the human body. The self realization of the immense positive energy that can be attained through chanting is to be attained.

The Sathguru shows the right path of salvation to the Shishya. He tells the Shishya about the do's and don'ts that a Shishya has to follow. Because Sathguru knows the mind of the Shishya. He knows how the Shishya thinks. So the Sathguru moulds the mind of the Shishya accordingly.

The true realization is that–we are provided with immense positive energy. But it is not seen in each and every human being because the quantum of negative energies as a proportion of positive energies is high. So one can realize the true effect of positive energy within us when the effect of negative energies is annulled. This can be done by constant chanting of Radhekrishna Namajapam. This is not an overstatement. It’s a fact.

Anyone can actually try this out. Even if one merely chants for even five minutes, one can easily feel the difference, the sanctity. If one by conscious effort tries to control the mind from not thinking about anything, then that gives tremendous relief and energy. By itself its very difficult to do but its certainly possible through chanting. When the positive energy emanates from the body of a person, then the radiance can be easily seen and identified.

The glow on the face of such a person is called as 'Tejas' (divinity). All these things are next to impossible without the help of a Sathguru. He is the one who has the capability to guide the Shishyas to attain such heights. The 'Tejas' found in the face of a Shishya is actually given by the Sathguru. The Shishya attains glory and fame with the power of that 'Tejas'. The Sathguru calmly observes it. The Shishya can achieve all this only with the blessings of the Sathguru.

We the members of Radhekrishna Sathsangam are fortunate to have our Sathguru Poojyashree Shree Amma and Mahan Brahmashree Gopalavallidasar to guide us in this journey called 'life'. Let us wholeheartedly surrender onto their feet and get their blessings. With their blessings, there is nothing else to be attained.

The Blessings of a Sathguru

JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNASATHSANG

Dear Readers,

Radhekrishna!!!

In this following article of ours we present to our readers a very interesting article. Its something which the so-called modern generation of today is ignorant of. Let us not make you readers anxious anymore and begin with the article.

It is a commonly observed practice in Hinduism that the shishyas (devotees) touch the feet of the Sathguru and the sathguru’s give them ‘aashirwadam’ (blessings). Now a layman’s thought would be that why is it to be done? Actually there lies a very deep scientific reason behind that act. That point is related to the transfer of energy. So in this article of ours lets see how the act of shishyas touching the feet of a Sathguru is related to science and Hinduism.

THE BLESINGS OF SATHGURU.

When the Sathguru gives blessings to his shishyas, the positive energy of Sathguru is transferred to the body of the shishyas through His divine hands and feet. The Guru represents the reservoir of positive energy and the divine field of magnetism is created through the power of devotion. This magnetic field flows around them.

When a shishyas humbly surrenders at the lotus feet of sathguru, from the feet of Sathguru; the positive energy gets transferred to the head of the shishyas. This annuls the negative energies, which may be present in the mind of the shishyas. Negative energies can enter the mind of any person through various media like bad friend circle; wherein the friends are indulged in bad habits like smoking, drinking etc, indulging in acts like watching the indecent T.V. programs, by performing of certain acts like theft, murder etc

The positive energy is punyam (good virtues) and the negative energy is papam (bad virtues). The touching of the divine feet of a Sathguru cleanses the sin in the form of papam. It burns the papam i.e. it burns the negative energy accumulated in the minds of the shishyas to zero.

THE PURE FORM OF ENERGY TRANSFORMATION TAKES PLACE IN THE HUMBLE SURRENDERING TO SATHGURU BY THE SHISHYA.

It’s known that energy transformation is a scientific concept. From the above explanation, there is now no doubt that transfer of energy takes place when the shishyas touches the divine feet of the sathguru. So isn’t this act also a scientific concept? And extrapolating the same isn’t Hinduism very scientific? Isn’t there a logical reasoning behind each and every action prescribed in Hinduism? Most definitely yes!

SURRENDERING TO THE LOTUS FEET OF SATHGURU IS CERTAINLY A SCIENTIFIC CONCEPT!

THE POSITIVE ENERGY DISAPPEARING FROM SATHGURU IN THE FORM OF BLESSINGS REAPPEARS IN THE FORM OF WISDOM IN THE MINDS OF SHISHYA.

Now doesn’t this above sentence very related to something that we have already said in our previous articles? Yes of course!! This is very much similar to the concept of conservation of energy. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Energy disappearing in one form reappears in another form.

So dear readers, after getting knowledge about the act of touching a Sathguru’s feet and surrendering to the feet of the Sathguru helps in transferring tremendous positive energy in our body and also in destroying the negative energies of our body; let us wholeheartedly surrender ourselves to the lotus feet of our Sathguru Poojyashree Shree Amma and Mahan Brahmashree Gopalavallidasar and obtain the positive energies!

Acupressure and Conservation of energy in hinduism

JAY SHREE POOJYASHREE SHREE AMMA
JAY MAHAN BRAHMASHREE GOPALAVALLIDASAR
JAY SHREE RADHEKRISHNASATHSANG

Dear Readers,

Radhekrishna to all of you!!

A small notice to all our readers that on our blog, the article dated 21^st August was published incomplete. The error has been rectified now and the inconvenience to our readers is regretted. Please do read the full article now published.

We continue our discussion on the relation of the act of meditating with the principle of Conservation of Energy in this article.

Now we very well know that mediation helps increase our potential energy tremendously. The energy, which is otherwise wasted, even if we are not doing any physical activity but ‘merely’ thinking, such wastage is avoided. Yes, it’s very true that a lot of energy is actually wasted when our mind thinks. Comparatively speaking, when our body and mind is preoccupied with doing a particular activity, say reading a book, the energy spent then is less than energy spent when one has got nothing to do and one is just sitting and daydreaming (i.e. the mind is working due to the thinking done). Hence its better that one indulges oneself in doing definite work rather than doing nothing (which means thinking). This is because the mind is such that it can never ever remain idle. So better make the mind work lesser by doing definite work than making it work more by ‘merely’ thinking.

Applying the rule of total energy remaining constant, we concluded that during meditation, the potential energy is total energy or the kinetic energy is nil.

T. E. = MGH + 0 (K.E)
Here Mass M is negligible, as the body becomes light. Other parameters are Gravitation G and height H. The gravitation G is overcome by the power of chanting. The body floats in the air.

HERE T. E. α MGH (T. E. IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO MGH)

T. E α H (T.E. IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO HEIGHT)

The term directly proportional means that as height increases, total energy increases and as height decreases, total energy decreases.

SO, FOR THE DEVOTEE WHO IS FLOATING IN THE AIR, THE T. E. IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO HEIGHT.

THE ONLY FACTOR, WHICH IS A CONSTRAINT, IS MASS.

WHEN M = MASS IS LESS, THEN H = HEIGHT WILL BE MORE.

WHEN M = MASS IS HIGH, THEN H = HEIGHT WILL BE LESS.

That’s what the SATHGURU’s mean when they SAY, “ Reduce your burden. You have dumped sacks and sacks of sorrow in your mind. Reduce it. Your mind will then be free, and your body light.

So when the mass is reduced, the body will be floating in the air. Here the mass does not mean body mass. The accumulated energy in the mind represents the mass. Every action whether it is positive or negative, will release energy in the body. Those energies, which are either positive or negative, will be accumulated in the body. This total energy is termed as mass in the above paragraphs.

When the T.E. is full of positive vibrations, which will enhance the universal energy flow, then that will create a positive magnetic field around us. In the same way, the negative energies will lead to enveloping a negative field around us.

This same logic can be explained from an example. In our life right from childhood we are told to keep a good friend circle. We are told to avoid having friends who indulge in smoking, drinking and other bad habits; and those who shirk studies and only loiter around the whole day doing nothing. Why is it so? It is so because all such people represent negative energies. Their presence around us makes us think and behave like them. But if the force of positive energies is more i.e. if one person from the negative category is amongst many of the positive category then there is a greater chance that that person with negative energies would improve in that environment of positive energies.

THROUGH CONSTANT CHANTING OF RADHEKRISHNA NAMA JAPAM, WE ARE REDUCING THE NEGATIVE ENERGY FROM OUR BODY.

We are avoiding evil thoughts and consequent wasting of the brain’s potential energy.

So let us all pledge to think positive and think only as much as needed. Let the positive energies of Radhekrishna Sathsangam flow in our body and mind.

Acupressure and Conservation of energy in hinduism

Dear Readers,

Radhekrishna!!

The previous article concluded with the description of 'CHIN MUDHRA' a type of meditation symbol. We thus now know that the various postures in which the rishis did meditation had definite scientific reasoning behind it. Meditating in those poses helped in stimulating the acupressure points of the body, which resulted in generation of tremendous energy in the body.
In this article let us know the relation of the act of doing meditation by the rishis, with the principle that we have already discussed in our previous articles about the Law of conservation of energy. We have seen in that law as to how the total energy (T.E.) is equal to the sum of K.E. and P.E. i.e. (T.E. = P.E. + K.E.) is a constant, and we have also known the proportions of K.E. and P.E. at the three different stages of Vaikuntham, Devalokam and Bhoolokam.

By sitting and doing constant Nama Japam, the rishis used to acquire immense potential energy.

P E = mgh, where m = mass, g = gravitation force h = height.

After vigorous meditation, a bhakta (devotee) achieves the state of flying in the air. This means he overcomes the power of gravitation. When the body becomes light, it floats in the air. It is just like a balloon filled with sufficient amount of air. Yes its true that this is achievable. The human mind has the power to do such things. But it requires a high level of concentration, which nobody in today’s world possesses.

When sufficient air is blown in a balloon, it starts floating in the air. At the same time, when the entire air is blown out, then the balloon will fall down to the earth. Our body resembles the balloon. Through breath control (pranayam), the air passage is mildly oscillated within the inner cavity of lungs. The body becomes light.

In the formula of potential energy, P. E. = mgh,
if the parameter, “m” becomes negligible, then automatically, the body acquires the ability to fly. Our light body then has a lot of potential energy stored in it.

Let us look at the increase in potential energy in an indirect manner now.

Let us know the impact of meditation on the variables that make up the formula for kinetic energy.

K.E.= 1/2 mv²

In this formula, the variables involved are mass and velocity.

When the human body floats in the air, the velocity of the body is uniform and the mass is negligible.

Now let is bring another familiar law into picture.

NEWTONS LAW OF MOTION:

Every inanimate body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion along a straight line, unless it is acted upon by an external unbalanced force.

Applying this law in the above context,

The devotee resembles the body. The body remains in the state of rest when the devotee is sitting and doing meditation. However when the devotee is floating in the air, the motion remains uniform.The velocity then becomes zero.(Because there is no motion. Thus we can say that when the person meditates and does pranayam to such an extent that his body becomes light enough to start floating in the air, then that body’s kinetic energy becomes zero. That is, the potential energy of that body increases tremendously.

Because, the T. E. should remain constant (LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY). THIS MEANS THE VALUE OF P. E. HAS TO INCREASE.

Let us continue with the discussions in our next article. Let us then know the further interpretations of the discussions of this article.

Till then let us chant the Radhekrishna Nama and with the blessings of Gurujiamma and Guruji (Mahan Brahmashree Gopalavallidasar) channelise our powerful human mind in doing the right things and not misuse its powers.

Acupressure and Conservation of energy in hinduism

Dear Readers,

In our previous article, we started a new topic ACCUPRESSURE AND ENERGY CONSERVATION IN HINDUISM. Now you all must have understood the reason why the rishis used to wear footwear made of wood in ancient times. There are many such small things, which appear to be very insignificant to the human mind in this modern day world. However there are certain important reasons why those things are, that way. Their significance cannot be appreciated unless the information about such things is disseminated to the people at large.

Right from childhood so many questions arise in our mind like:
Why is a rangoli drawn in front of the house?
Why does one hold fasts (not eating anything)?
Why must a tulasi plant be planted in the house?
Why are colours sprayed on each other during holi?
Why do people meditate?
So on and so forth.

All such things seem redundant to a person if he does not know the significance of those things. The purpose of our blog is to spread knowledge about all such things, which are small parts of the huge parcel known as 'Hinduism'.

Continuing from where we left last time, here is a brief description of the wooden slippers:

The wooden slippers will be having a single hold. On one side of this hold would be the toe (first finger of our leg) and on the other side of this hold would be the remaining four fingers; index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger. One has to make a firm grip at the hold with the help of our toe and the index finger. This indirectly creates the effect of acupressure.

A specific acupressure point is located in the toes, which is connected to the brain and spinal chord.

When we obtain a firm grip on that hold of the PADHA RAKSHAI (wooden slippers) using our toe and our index finger, that specific acupressure point present in our toe, gets pressed. This activates the motor nerve impulses of brain and spinal chord making the power of meditation still more powerful. This is the reason why such slippers were worn in ancient times.

Moving further, there are various postures mentioned in yoga in which the rishis used to sit and do meditation. Now a question that arises is that why is it required to sit in certain specific postures only to meditate? The reason is that the yogic postures meant for meditation have specific significance towards acupressure points.

Following is an example:
The CHIN MUDHRA, is the basic type of meditation symbol. It is formed by folding the INDEX FINGER and THUMB. The tip of index finger represents the acupressure point for SINUS (ENERGY POINTS). SINUS FLUID is generated in the brain and it helps in the brain activity. The acupressure points connected to the thumb are

I) Pituitary gland
II) Pineal gland
III) Mental nerves
IV) head nerves and
V) spine.

Thus by folding the index finger and thumb, we are creating a circulation of electricity from one end to another.

The energy that is stored in the body flows to the thumb. That is passed on to the sinus points which are present in the index fingers. Thus a circuit of electricity is created, just like connecting the Negative and Positive Terminal of a battery. Here the circuit is a closed one. So, there is no loss of electricity. Thus the body current circulates within the body, without any loss. Thus the power of chanting (NAMA JAPAM) MULTIPLIES AND PRODUCES AN AVALANCHE EFFECT AS IN THE CASE OF ATOM BOMB.
Let us look at the scientific example of the atom bomb:
The energy released by small atoms is seemingly negligible. But, when the atoms are bombarded within the closed circuit, the energy released by these small atoms, combines
together. The cycle of bombardment is done, time after time. Thus it creates a massive energy. This massive energy bursts out, and there it attains the name of ATOM BOMB.

The same thing accounts well with chanting (NAMA JAPAM). But, the key point is that the circuit of electricity should be closed. The circuit is closed by CHIN MUDHRA in the hands. The energy loss is protected by PADHA RAKSHAI. (Wooden Slipper). Thus the energy released by the NAMA JAPAM accumulates time after time and it produces an avalanche effect, leading to enormous energy of unimaginable pores, as in the case of ATOM BOMB. Our Ancient Hinduism had a wonderful Science behind each and every aspect. Some People used to laugh at Rishis. They used to ask them, What is HE going to get by closing his eyes and folding his fingers and do continuous chanting? Yes, Of course HE is going to acquire enormous energy by means of HIS meditation and that energy will be stored within his body for future use by means of wearing the wooden slippers.

Let us know more about this in our next article. Till then Radhekrishna!!

Accupressure and Conservation of energy in hinduism

Jay Shree Poojyashree Shree Amma
Jay Mahan Brahmashree Gopalavallidasar
Jay Shree Radhekrishna Sathsangam

Dear Readers,

Radhekrishna! In this month falls a significant date which is 16th of August. The day is special because it is the festival of Janmashtami. It is Lord Krishna's birthday!
Please do see our website www.radhekrishnasatsangam.com
for the details pertaining to this day's celebrations by our Radhekrishna Sathsangam.

Coming back to the articles,

We concluded our dicussions relating to the potential and kinetic energies and their links with hinduism in our last article.

In this article we will be hitting on the relation between Accupressure and conservation of energy with its links, obviously, with Hinduism.

Nowadays, everybody is becoming aware about and willing to try out Accupressure Techniques. The increasing role played by the various mass media like radio, television, internet etc is contributing to such awareness. There is a lot of advertising in newspapers, television etc about accupressure clinics, accupressure methods and re;ated topics. 'Accupressure' has certainly come into the limelight as the 'next big thing', in todays world.
Accupressure concentrates on knowing certain points on our human body which are connected through nerves with the vital organs of the body such as brain, heart etc. The technique revolves around applying force on such critical points to cure various ailments. Every critical part could be connected with one or more vital organs of the body.

However, the fact remains that it is not new to 'hinduism'. This technique was known to us since ancient times. The RISHI's, who did meditation in forests, or any place where they would be undisturbed, used to wear slippers made of wood.

Why a wodden slipper? If in todays world a person is asked to wear wooden footware, he would laugh out loudly saying that there are much better alternative footware available. However, this is because everyone is ignorant about the reasons hidden behind it.

Our body itself, becomes a source of electricity after meditation. Meditating upon God has various benefits. It gives peace of mind to the person. It makes a person 'Sattvic'. Sattva-(goodness). The concentration power of a person increases. Electricity produced in the body after meditation, should be stored. The reason why it should be stored is that just as water if allowed to flow at the time of monsoon, will get percolated into the soil i.e. earth; similarly, the energy that is produced within the human body, as a result of meditation, will get transferred to the earth when there is a contact between the body and the earth.

However, if the water during monsoon is stored in a dam, then it becomes a reservoir of energy (in this case potential energy of water which is stored). Similarly, the human body should also become a reservoir of energy if the energy acquired through meditation needs to be utilised in the future. As per Science, earth is a great electro-magnet. It can easily absorb electricity from any thing. So, on touching the ground, the body current passes from the human body to the earth. The energy that was stored in the body, will be transferred to the earth.

Thus the valuable exercise of mediating in order to obtain energy becomes worthless. We know that wood is a non-conductor of electricity. Current or energy for that matter cannot pass through wood. This fact was known to the rishis in the ancient times and they used it to great effect. Our body makes contact with the earth through the legs. The slippers made of wood, act as a non - conductor of electricity, and prevent the body current (the positive energy produced in the body, by virtue of meditation) from passing to the earth.

Ancient Hinduism,has a significant knowledge about electricity. The people of those times had chosen a non -conducting material namely, wood to preserve the body energy. This is the reason behind the wearing of wodden slippers by the rishis of those times.
(WODDEN SLIPPERS - PADHARAKSHAI.)

However, you readers must be thinking that how is all this related with accupressure in any way? For the answer, wait till our next article.
Till then radhekrishna. Do Radhekrishna napajabam continuously and enjoy the bliss.

Sarvam Guruvarpanam.
