  • Water Expresses Emotions OM

    Three purification Agents are mentioned In Hinduism.

    In the order of Purification, they are.

    The sacred syllable “AUM” was written on a glass of water

    and the crystal structure that was observed is shown below:

    Water crystal obtained by labeling with the Vedic sound Aum

    Water,

    Air and

    Fire.

    First is water to clean and purify.

    Next is Air and finally when both water and Air can not Fire will destroy and purify everything.

    One would find Achamanam, Paathyam Snanam, Kalasa Pooja, are followed by Homa(Fire) in any Hindu Ritual.

    I have written a detailed article on Place of Water in Hinduism

    One may notice in the Puranas when A Rishi Curses ,he takes water in the palm of his right hand and sprinkles it.

    Water carries messages.

    They are transmitters of spoken word.

    What we eat determines our Thoughts and words.

    Hinduism insists on Purity of words, Thoughts and Deeds.

    Does Water have any special properties in carrying messages?

    I have written on  the scientific results of Dharbh, Agnihotra, OM, Yantras.

    Now on to water.

    “Masaru Emoto was born in Yokohama, Japan in July 1943 and a graduate of the Yokohama Municipal University’s department of humanities and sciences with a focus on International Relations. In 1986 he established the IHM Corporation in Tokyo. In October of 1992 he received certification from the Open International University as a Doctor of Alternative Medicine. Subsequently he was introduced to the concept of micro cluster water in the US and Magnetic Resonance Analysis technology. The quest thus began to discover the mystery of water.

    He undertook extensive research of water around the planet not so much as a scientific researcher, but more from the perspective of an original thinker. At length he realized that it was in the frozen crystal form that water showed us its true nature through. He has gained worldwide acclaim through his groundbreaking research and discovery that water is deeply connected to our individual and collective consciousness.

    He is the author of the best-selling books Messages from Water, The Hidden Messages in Water, and The True Power of Water. He is a long-time advocate for peace in relation to water. He is currently the head of the I.H.M.General Research Institute and President Emeritus of the International Water for Life Foundation, a Not for Profit Organization.

    Mr. Emoto has been visually documenting these molecular changes in water by means of his photographic techniques. He freezes droplets of water and then examines them under a dark field microscope that has photographic capabilities.

    Some examples from his works include:

    Water from clear mountain springs and streams had beautifully formed crystalline structures, while the crystals of polluted or stagnant water were deformed and distorted.

    Distilled water exposed to classical music took delicate, symmetrical crystalline shapes.

    When the words “thank you” were taped to a bottle of distilled water, the frozen crystals had a similar shape to the crystals formed by water that had been exposed to Bach’s “Goldberg Variations”- music composed out of gratitude to the man it was named for.

    When water samples were bombarded with heavy metal music or labeled with negative words, or when negative thoughts and emotions were focused intentionally upon them, such as “Adolf Hitler”, the water did not form crystals at all and displayed chaotic, fragmented structures.

    When water was treated with aromatic floral oils, the water crystals tended to mimic the shape of the original flower.

    Sometimes, when we cannot see the immediate results of our affirmations and or prayers, we think we have failed. But, as we learn through Masaru Emoto’s photographs, that thought of failure itself becomes represented in the physical objects that surround us. Now that we have seen this, perhaps we can begin to realize that even when immediate results are invisible to the unaided human eye, they are still there. When we love our own bodies, they respond. When we send our love to the Earth, she responds.

    For our own bodies at birth are more than 60 percent water, and the percentage of water in our bodies remains high throughout life (depending upon weight and body type). The earth’s surface is more than 60 percent water as well. And now we have seen before our eyes that water is far from inanimate, but is actually alive and responsive to our every thought and emotion. Perhaps, having seen this, we can begin to really understand the awesome power that we possess, through choosing our thoughts and intentions, to heal ourselves and the earth. If only we believe.

    Whether you participate in global meditations, or simply do this inner work in the quiet of your own loving mind and heart — we can heal the body of our earth and recreate a clear, pristine world to hand down to our children for seven generations.”

  • OM In Sumerian Prayer 2600 BC Predates Veda

    OM, the Sacred Mantra of Hinduism is powerful and is capable of altering Genes, and when chanted properly and thrown in a Tonoscope shows the Image of Sri Yantra,  a special Geometric Pattern used by Hindus in worship

    The OM MantraImage.jpeg
    OM Mantra..

    .

    Please read my articles on these.

    OM contains three letters/sounds,

    A,

    U, and

    M.

    While A raises from the mouth,U from the throat, M raises from the stomach, the only three places from where the sounds can originate.

    OM is used as a prefix of All Mantras.

    It brings in Prosperity and helps concentrate the Mind and is used as a tool in Yoga.

    Earliest reference to OM is found in the Rig Veda.

    Now Rig Veda is dated around 1900 BC, though I am o the opinion that it should be around 5000 BC at the latest.

    Lest the Heading of the Post may mislead, I am furnishing a comment and my reply.

    Ramanan Sir The Sumerian prayer predates Vedas is not correct. Because Vedas are the oldest knowledge in the world. Sumerians were an Indian Colony in the Middle East. They were from Sumeru region of the Himalayas. the prayer period of 2600 b.c. is much after Mahabharat War which shattered Worldwide Common Vedic Empire Of India. So how anything can predate Vedas? Please give your comments Regards Shrirang Sudrik

      Dear Shrirang, What I meant to convey was that the Sumerian Prayer’s reference to OM pushes the Date of the Vedas from 1900 BC by at least by 1000 Years, the Sumerian Prayer being dated at 2600BC. The article is meant to convey only this point.The post’s heading can be interpreted as you have observed,
      As to Sumeria being part of the Sanatana Dharma, I have written quite a few article.I should improve.Why no calls for quite some time?Regds

    (Date of Rig Veda has always been controversial as it is the oldest surviving literary work. Generally it is put at 1900 BC. Let us see how it came to that date and how experts differ on that date.)- Controversies in History

    Max Muller
    Max Muller assigned the period 1500 BCE to 500 BCE for Rigveda Samhita. One of the reasons given is that beginnings of human kind cannot be earlier to 4000 B.C.E. Muller took particular care to ensure that the hypothetical Aryan invasion took place after the Biblical flood and he arbitrarily assigned a date of 1200 B.C to the Rig Veda, which is considered as the oldest among the four Vedas. Since the evidence was flimsy, he recanted his earlier assignment near the end of his life.

    But the Religious practices of the Sumerians  refer to OM.

    I have written on the early connections between the Sumerians and The Tamils of India and the probability of the ancestors of Sumerians and MU people being Tamils.

    And Lord Rama , His Brother Bharata and King Dasaratha feature in Sumerian Kingslist!

    “Those who recite the sound Om, (activates deathless Light in the body) and becomes radiant (amar su-ti-a)”

    ~ Temple Hymn 31 (Source)

     

    ..

    The mantra Om or “AUM” is typically associated with the Hindu tradition and is considered the primordial sound, one of the most ancient and sacred mantras. (You can read more about its sacred meaninghere.)

    With this in mind, we were surprised and excited to come across a possible reference to this mantra in a Sumerian text from c. 2300 BCE – potentially over a thousand years older than the earliest references to it in Vedic literature. If true, the implications of this discovery are enormous.

    Dr. K. Loganathan, a researcher in SumeroTamil studies believes that there is a strong link between the ancient Tamil language and ancient Sumerian and that Sumerian is, in fact, Archaic Tamil. Based on this hypothesis, he has developed a method for translating Sumerian tablets by matching a phonological reading of the cuneiform script with the ancient Tamil language, which he believes leads to a more accurate translation than the currently used widespread approach.

    For example, Dr. Loganathan cites the following line from Temple Hymn 31 with the conventionally-accepted translation:

    5(400)

    [umbin]-se-ba amar su-ti-a ( Who snatches the calf with (his) [cla]ws )

    However, by matching these words with ancient Tamil, a very different (and intriguing) meaning emerges:

    Ta. Ombi-in isaiba amar sootiya ( Who recites this mantra sound Om (Ombi-in-isai), lights up (sutiya) deathlessness (amar) ) 

    Or :

    Those who recite the sound Om, (activates deathless Light in the body) and becomes radiant (amar su-ti-a)

    Dr Loganathan also indicates additional lines that refer to people specifically uttering the sound (i.e., chanting a mantra).

    Again in the lines below, the first example is the conventional translation while the second is interpreted from Ancient Tamil.

    6(401)

    Traditional translation: [tu-tu-ba-lu] su-ti-a ( Who catches [a man in his net]

    SumeroTamil translation: Ta. tuuttuba uLu -sootiya ( Illuminates those people who utter it *tuuttu-bi-a)

    7(402)

    Traditional translation: [kala-ga gu-ab-ba] su-ti-a (  [The strong one] who snatches [the bull]

    SumeroTamil translation: Ta. kalai-ka  kuuvappa sootiya ( The art of uttering  that gains inner light)

    If Dr. Loganathan’s research is correct, there are many profound implications for those interested in ancient Sumeria, ancient India, and spirituality in general.

    The earliest Hindu reference to the mantra OM is in the Rigveda, c. 1500-1200 BCE. The Sumerian text containing the lines above (Temple Hymn 31) date from 2300 BCE, meaning this reference to OM could predate the Hindu reference by almost 1,000 years! If true, this mantra has much older roots and origins than the Vedas and seems to have been recognized as spiritually significant in cultures beyond the Hindu and Buddhist (as is commonly perceived today).
    OM reference in the Rig Veda.When reading through the translated Sumerian cuneiform tablets, other similarities between the Hindu and Sumerian cultures are at times quite evident, such as for instance a description of the goddess Inana that sounds remarkably similar to the Hindu Kali, a divine female goddess representing the sacred role of the Destroyer.

    ”

    The Gayatri mantra from the Rig Veda, for example, begins with Om. The mantra is extracted from the 10th verse of Hymn 62 in Book III of the Rig Veda.These recitations continue to be in use, and major incantations and ceremonial functions begin and end with Om.

  • OM Alters Genes Immunity Massachusetts General Hospital

    Scientific study of OM is gaining currency in the West and numerous researches have proved its unique features.

    Its ability to affect the Electro Magnetic Filed around and in us.

    OM, 3 D Wall paper.jpg OM, 3 D Wall paper.

    Its resonance is that of the Earth, Schumann Resonance.

    OM’s effects on the individual’s mind state, especially the Alpha Waves is staggering.

    I have published articles on these subjects.

    Chanting God's Name and Mantra.gif Chanting God’s Name and Mantra- a Comparison.

    Researchers in the Massachusetts General Hospital have found,

    ‘

    that the relaxation response – a state of deep rest attained through breathing, meditation, yoga and other practices — triggers changes in gene expression that can affect the body’s immune function, energy metabolism and insulin secretion. The new research — the first to look at rapid, gene-level changes following the relaxation practice — is published in the journal PLOS ONE.

    Herbert Benson, a senior author of the new study, first described the “relaxation response” — what he calls the physiologic opposite of fight-or-flight — nearly 40 years ago. He’s now the director emeritus of the Benson-Henry institute for Mind-Body Medicine at MGH, where the technique is used to help patients manage a wide variety of medical conditions from anxiety and chronic pain to cancer.

    Benson says the new research should give a credibility boost to his endeavors (which, by the way, non-Westerners have been practicing in various forms for thousands of years). “There’s now a scientific basis for these mind-body approaches that work,” Benson said. “For the mainstream, every little bit of evidence helps.”

    Benson’s collaborator, Towia Libermann, PhD, director of the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) Genomics, Proteomics, Bioinformatics and Systems Biology Center and co-senior author of the study, says the evidence clearly links the relaxation response to rapid changes in gene expression. “There is a relatively small subset of biological pathways affected by relaxation response,” he said. For instance, a pathway involved in immune disturbances and inflammation was repressed after the relaxation technique while another set of pathways involved in mitochondrial function and energy production were enhanced.

    The study involved 52 people — 26 were long-time practitioners of the relaxation response, 26 had never done it, but were trained in the technique. The subjects had blood drawn before, immediately after they practiced, and 15 minutes later, and then researchers used advanced gene expression profiling and systems biology analysis to determine any changes in gene expression. These changes, Libermann said, occurred in both groups but were more pronounced among the long-time relaxers.

    Libermann, who has been working with Benson for 10 years, says he was drawn to this research “to convince myself that there’s really something going on here, and it’s not just a placebo effect.” Now, he says: “I’m pretty convinced.” He and Benson are currently investigating whether the relaxation response triggers molecular-level changes in people with hypertension, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and other diseases.

    Here’s more from MGH:

    In 2008, Benson and Libermann led a study finding that long-term practice of the relaxation response changed the expression of genes involved with the body’s response to stress. The current study examined changes produced during a single session of relaxation response practice, as well as those taking place over longer periods of time.

    The study enrolled a group of 26 healthy adults with no experience in relaxation response practice, who then completed an 8-week relaxation response training course. Prior to starting their training, the participants went through what was essentially a control group session – blood samples were taken before and immediately after they listened to a 20-minute health education CD and again 15 minutes later. After completing the training course, a similar set of blood tests was taken before and after participants listened to a 20-minute CD used to elicit the relaxation response as part of daily practice.

    The sets of blood tests taken before the training program were designated “novice,” and those taken after training completion were categorized as from “short-term practitioners.” For further comparison a similar set of blood samples was taken from a group of 25 individuals with 4 to 25 years experience regularly eliciting the relaxation response through many different techniques before and after they listened to the same relaxation response CD. Blood samples from all participants were analyzed to determine the expression of more than 22,000 genes at the different time points.

    The results revealed significant changes in the expression of several important groups of genes between the novice samples and those from both the short- and long-term sets, with even more pronounced changes in the long-term practitioners. A systems biology analysis of known interactions among the proteins produced by the affected genes revealed that pathways involved with energy metabolism, particularly the function of mitochondria, were upregulated during the relaxation response. Pathways controlled by activation of a protein called NF-κB – known to have a prominent role in inflammation, stress, trauma and cancer – were suppressed after relaxation response elicitation. The expression of genes involved in insulin pathways was also significantly altered.’

  • Explanation Of OM Letter In Sanskrit

    OM,AUM is a Mantra, a Mystically locked sound.

    It does not belong to one religion, but to Humanity.

    The OM MantraImage.jpeg
    OM Mantra..

    It is a soundless sound that creates vibrations , both at the sub atomic level and at the macro Level.

    It alters the micro and macrocosm.

    I have written articles on the import of OM, its scientific validation and how it is the breath of the Earth.

    One curious fact about OM, is that the Sanskrit script in which it is written represents some basic principles of Nature.

    • The large lower left curve represents Vaishvanara: The waking state/conscious mind/gross world.
    • The upper left curve represents Prajana: The dreamless state/unconscious mind/casual state
    • The large curve on the right represents Taijasa: The dreaming state/active unconscious/subtle world.
    • The semicircle represents Maya: The illusion that prevents us from seeing we are all one/paradoxical waking state/duality.
    • The dot represents Turiya: The infinite/pure consciousness/oneness.

  • OM Earth’s Breath 7.83 Hz,Schumann Resonance

    The sound OM (A,U,M) is the sacred chant of Sanatana Dharma, Hinduism.

    OM.jpg OM

    Sounds originate from three points in the Human Body.

    From the Mouth,

    Throat and

    Abdomen.

    The alphabets of any and every Language must have these letters.

    Schumann Resonance.In the Brain.jpg Schumann Resonance.In the Brain

    These letters constitute the entire Universe by their vibrations.

    The Universe Vibrates.

    Universe is always in Motion.

    Motion produces Vibration.

    There is a controversy about Vibration and Sound.

    Which precedes or causes the other?

    Does sound cause Vibration or is it the other way around?

    We can observe sound creating vibration and vibration causing sound.

    Not all vibrations can cause observable sound.

    These vibrations exist in the Universe and within ourselves.

    The vibrations can be studied by Spectroscopy.

    These vibrations have a direct effect on Electromagnetism.

    Our Brain and our nervous system, as we all know, consist of Nerve cells.

    Nerve Cells transmit messages to the Brain

    Nerve Cells consist of Axon,Dendrites and Nuclei.

    When we receive a message or a stimulation of our senses these sensations are carried to the brain by a chain of nerve cells,one transmitting to another.

    But there is a microscopic gap between one Nerve( I have used this term so that people can understand-Axon and Dendrites terms are not used in the article.Those interested may read a chapter on Nervous system from any standard text-book for Class x/xii). and another.

    This gap is called the Synaptic Gap.

    Earlier it was believed that the messages from one nerve to another is being transmitted by a chemical in the Gap.

    Now it is found that the messages pass through this gap electromagnetically.

    That is your stimuli is converted into electro magnetic wave and is sent across and this is received by the Brain and it decodes and assigns the messages to their respective slots in the Brain.

     

    Now any and everything in the Universe vibrates from the Atom to the Galaxies.

    So when the is a stimuli there is electro magnetic activity.

    Ultimately our brain decodes everything electro magnetically and it is converted into understandable message when they are processed and sent back.

    These vibrations as understood  in the light of electromagnetism has thrown some interesting results.

    As said earlier, every thing vibrates, including the Earth.

    And Vibration causes resonance.

    Earth moves, is in Motion and hence Vibrates.

    So it ought to produce Electro Magnetic Waves.

    Schumann Resonance.

    ‘The Schumann resonances (SR) are a set of spectrum peaks in the extremely low-frequency (ELF) portion of the Earth’s electromagnetic field spectrum. Schumann resonances are global electromagnetic resonances, generated and excited by lightning discharges in the cavity formed by the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere…

    Lightning discharges are considered to be the primary natural source of Schumann resonance excitation; lightning channels behave like huge antennas that radiate electromagnetic energy at frequencies below about 100 kHz.These signals are very weak at large distances from the lightning source, but the Earth–ionosphere waveguidebehaves like a resonator at ELF frequencies and amplifies the spectral signals from lightning at the resonance frequencies.

    In an ideal cavity, the resonant frequency of the n-th mode f_{n} is determined by the Earth radius a and the speed of light c.

    f_{n} =\frac{c}{2 \pi a}\sqrt{n(n+1)}

    The real Earth–ionosphere waveguide is not a perfect electromagnetic resonant cavity. Losses due to finite ionosphere electrical conductivity lower the propagation speed of electromagnetic signals in the cavity, resulting in a resonance frequency that is lower than would be expected in an ideal case, and the observed peaks are wide. In addition, there are a number of horizontal asymmetries – day-night difference in the height of the ionosphere, latitudinal changes in the Earth’s magnetic field, sudden ionospheric disturbances, polar cap absorption, variation in the Earth radius of ± 11 km from equator to geographic poles, etc. that produce other effects in the Schumann resonance power spectra…

    This global electromagnetic resonance phenomenon is named after physicist Winfried Otto Schumann who predicted it mathematically in 1952. Schumann resonances occur because the space between the surface of the Earth and the conductive ionosphere acts as a closed waveguide. The limited dimensions of the Earth cause this waveguide to act as a resonant cavity for electromagnetic waves in the ELF band. The cavity is naturally excited by electric currents in lightning. Schumann resonances are the principal background in the electromagnetic spectrum beginning at 3 Hz and extending to 60 Hz, and appear as distinct peaks at extremely low frequencies (ELF) around 7.83 (fundamental),14.3, 20.8, 27.3 and 33.8 Hz.

    In the normal mode descriptions of Schumann resonances, the fundamental mode is a standing wave in the Earth–ionosphere cavity with a wavelength equal to the circumference of the Earth. This lowest-frequency (and highest-intensity) mode of the Schumann resonance occurs at a frequency of approximately 7.83 Hz, but this frequency can vary slightly from a variety of factors, such as solar-induced perturbations to the ionosphere, which comprises the upper wall of the closed cavity.[citation needed] The higher resonance modes are spaced at approximately 6.5 Hz intervals

    Schumann Resonance.

    Studies indicate the chanting of OM produces the same frequency as that of Earth, 7.83 Hz.

    ‘

    Resonances of earth, ie, 7.83,  13.7, 19.6, 25.5, 31.4, 37.3 and 43.2 Hertz of earth. We all know 7.83 hz being the strongest of all, OM or Schumann frequency.

    Ohm- 7.83Hz
    Gam – 13.7Hz
    Hleem – 19.6Hz
    Hreem – 25.5Hz
    Kleem – 31.4Hz
    Krowm – 37.3Hz
    Sreem – 43.2Hz

    The Schumann Resonances are the result of cosmic energy build-up within the cavity that exists between Earth’s highly conductive surface and the conducting layer in the upper atmosphere called the ionosphere. the space between the surface of the earth and the conductive ionosphere acts as a waveguide. The cavity is naturally excited by energy from lightning strikes. This ionospheric charge creates an electrical shield around the Earth.. The atmosphere is a dielectric insulator, which separates the two. Thus a spherical capacitor as well as a spherical resonator is created and maintained. Electrical signals of sufficient wavelength (low-frequency) are wave-guided around and around between this “sphere within a sphere” and is the base Schumann Resonance of 7.8Hz mainly traveling from West to East.

    7.83 HZ or the ALPHA frequency  is the gateway that leads into deeper states of consciousness.

    Most people are in an alpha state during the short time immediately before they fall asleep and when the conscious nervous system switches over to the subconscious.
