The fontanel bone theory

Image
Although, I have always wanted to make my blog posts as simple as possible as I am much associated with young seekers (children) and want them to understand and be involved in the journey together with me. However, today I wished to introduce some basics of this meta-science that I have been referring to, time and again in my narration. Some parts of it might sound complicated to a few; however, to me, it seems important at this point of time to introduce this ancient Indian knowledge in small bits and parts that would eventually build up to a more clear understanding of the journey and the process.  Highlighting the fontanel bone theory mentioned in the book Meta Modern Era written by H. H. Mataji Shri Nirmala Devi, the theory explains that how a human fetus before showing the signs of life inside the womb has a brain and the spinal cord as its basic body structure in its early stages of development…and this is when the cosmic rays enter the brain through the fontanel area ...

A Gesture...

The environment that allows the existence of life is a miracle in itself and speaks for its own divinity. As I go about talking about the experiment and the hypothesis, we shall certainly need the help of some privileges and powers given to us humans that makes us more sophisticated than the other species who are part of the same environment. For example, the power to communicate, the power to desire…and so on. The desire of a seeker is a powerful tool. It suggests the acknowledgment of his own ignorance and realization that he is still away from the real ‘self’ that he is.   I however believe that we humans have a very limited understanding of our environment and ourselves, so to be humble and acknowledge our own limitations can in a way benefit us in our journey towards self- exploration. There are some basic steps that I feel can help us in taking up this journey towards self- awareness/ realization and can help in restoring our lost sense of belonging. The very first step ...

Save Earth?

Confined to their own comfort zone, artists seldom come out and start a dialogue with the world. Say, they already have started a dialogue when they started to create…It’s only that there are few who understand and appreciate the universal language of art. An artist’s perspective is, however, a thing to be listened to and probably worth meditating upon. And if such kindred spirits come under a shared umbrella and decide to sing their song, it sure would be music worth listening to. Like a bunch of artists did in a recent artist's residency, at a remote tribal village (Badanga) in India. A collectivity of artists handpicked from different parts of the world resonating with the universal song of the earth. Privileged to be one of the artists in the collective, w hat we shared in that collective space is a very interesting perspective that I would like to pass on as we proceed in this dialogue . It’s a very subtle human ego that says, “save earth”. The Earth- so giant in front...

A tiny particle of dust

Image
Talking about existence…we talked about the reason why we have life on this tiny dot called earth in this vast universe (refer blogpost- Microcosm-Macrocosm ). What is manifesting through the amalgamation of these five elements on this planet is perhaps divinity, auspiciousness…a miracle or maybe just “love”.  I want to remind again of the image I have shared in one of my blog posts ( A Reminder ) of the Earth that was taken by spacecraft Voyager1 in the year 1990 February 14 while it was crossing Saturn…perhaps no better image than this can explain the equation of love that is manifesting on this tiny particle of dust suspended in a sunbeam, so intense and beyond all kind of human understanding.      The Pale Blue Dot    Addressing human attention dwelling in religion, politics and all kinds of the man-made complicated world... here I want to highlight the world that is- as it is given to us by this force called life- manifesting miraculously ...

Microcosm- Macrocosm

Image
It is the presence and the perfect balance of five elements namely, earth, water, fire, ether and air that has given birth to the environment that supports life on Earth. Every matter, living or dead present in this ecosystem is made of these five elements. As such our bodies are also made of these five elements. As I mentioned earlier, ‘with the knowledge of microcosm- macrocosm can be known’ or, 'all that is outside of us is also inside of us'- Y at pinde... tat brahmande ’. And if we consider it a hypothesis, it can be said that all the problems that we have outside in the world are the manifestation of the problems that we have inside of us. The real-time disasters like contamination of land, water, air, and ether are the perfect examples of this notion. ” It is because we are contaminated inside, that our environment is contaminated”.  Contamination of the environment is a human act while the sacredness of the elements remains intact. The sacred elements that...

An eternal symbol of seeking

Image
Given to the god of death- Yama by his own father in a fit of anger, child Nachiketa sat at the doors of the god of death for three days without food or water. When Yama found Nachiketa at his door, pleased by his sincerity, Yama granted him three boons. For the third boon, Young Nachiketa desired the knowledge of what happens to a being after death- for the wait and the disillusionment after the whole incident left him wanting to know the truth. Even after Yama insisted that he cannot reveal the sacred knowledge and that Nachiketa can ask for anything else in the world, he had to surrender before the determination of the child. image courtesy Kala Kshetram The boon was indeed granted by Yama and child Nachiketa became an eternal symbol of determination and seeking. The quest for self- realization and self- knowledge is ancient. Came many seekers in search of knowledge and prophets to quench the thirst for knowledge and still we find the dialogue lost in interpretation. For ...

A little bit more of wonderment

Image
You can sing deepest songs of your heart with them, and they are always the best companions when you want to stay a little bit more into the state of wonderment.    Children are my favorite people on the planet. They are more planetary than worldly and that reminds me that the child state is the best state of being. If we observe small children closely, we will find that a child always narrates in the third person. Like, they will take their name and say about themselves that this boy/girl has done this…he/she was going there...and that shows a natural state of witness of the being. A witness state is a state where one witness everything- every happening as a divine play without getting involved. A state that many yogis wish to achieve through practice and meditation. Probably this is the reason why a small child is always bubbling with laughter and is full of energy…full of joy.
