YAGYA THERAPY (COMPOSITION OF THE MIXTURES)

This yagya experiment should be performed by the patient (s) twice a day _ once around the sunrise time and later little before the sunset time. Soon after the ahutis, the patient(s) should practice the deep breathing exercise of Pranakarsana pranayama for 15-20 minutes sitting at the same place. While exhaling one should feel as though all the weakness, viruses, bacteria and their harmful effects are being thrown out and are being eradicated by the yagya output. Inhalation (breathing in) should be accompanied with a sincere feeling that the vital spiritual energy and medicinal output generated by yagya is entering the body and being absorbed by its every component and elevating the ojas. Healthy persons may also participate in the same yagya, as sitting near the yagya-fire and breathing in the yagya treated air would benefit everyone.

For faster remedial effects the patients should also drink of the decoction of 5-6 teaspoons full of fine powder of the Ayurvedic medicines used in the preparation of the special havan samagri. The decoction should be prepared fresh in the morning. Some honey may be mixed in it if the patient finds the taste bitter. The patient should drink half of it empty stomach in the morning and remaining half around 4 pm. (Care should be taken to keep the decoction in cool condition so that it remains fresh till that time. Else, fresh decoction should be prepared for the second dose as well). The method of preparation of the decoction has been described in several articles of series on Ayurveda. If necessary readers may send their queries to Shantikunj@awgp.org or write to Manager, Shantikunj, Haridwar: 249411 India.

List of herbe/plant medicines used in the above referred special havan samagri: aswagandha, satavara, vidarikanda, giloya, nimachala, panchanga, syama tulasi, saphead, musali, kali musali, akarakaram mulahathi, bacha, saptaparni, chikrakchhala, sontha, kalimircha, pippali, anvala, haritika, baheda, haldim daruhaldi, punarnava, gorakhmundi, durva, jatamansi, brahmim jalanima, makhana, utangana, kalamegha, kutha, patola patra, indrayana mula, trayamana, kutakim ativala, bhui, talamakhana, kayaphala, kanchabija, bhunjataka, chirayata, khadriachhala, vidanga, motha, manijistha, devadaru, murva, indrajau, padmakha, gugala, tuvaraka bija, sala chhala, mesasrangim goksura, arjuna, palasa, pittapapada, chiraunji, sankhapuspi, rasna, padhata, jivaka, jivanti, chhoti kantakari, badi kantakari, arani, sonapatha, bharangim bilva, kadavi atisa.

All these should be well cleaned and dried before grinding. Equal amount of all these medicines is used except hadavi atisa, the amount of which should be one-fourth of that of the others. Doing yagya regularly at the same time, at the same place as described above would gradually enhance the ojas; on an average, within a month the patient will begin to regain the resistance and strength to counter the diseases. Following adequate disciplines of ahara and vihara, she/he will enjoy healthy and hearty life.

[Maa Sharadamani, the soul mate of Ramakrishna Paramhansa, used to run a separate satsanga (a congregation of women). The majority of women in it was of religious temperament and belonged to reputed families. A prostitute also started coming to the satsanga. This displeased the other women and they started insisting on the Mother (Sharamamani) not to let her join the satsanga. Maa replied with gravity - "Satsanga is the Holy Ganga. Its sanctity is not undermined even when fish and frogs dwell in it. Recognize the purifying potential of Satsanga and consider yourself equivalent to the waters of the Ganga".]

YAGYOPATHY-MEDICINAL APPLICATIONS OF YAGYA

Amidst the fascinating achievements of the modern era of science and technology in improving our comfort levels, stress and pollution have posed the major challenge for man. The world is beginning to realize that the comforts provided to us by modern science and technology of not necessarily always make life easier. In fact, apart, form greater stress and tension, more unknown diseases, untold anxiety and fear is caused by the highly polluted environment and ecological imbalance. This has raised alarming call for rethinking and guiding the common life style. Yagya appears to be a boon of the ancient Nepalese sciences for achieving this purpose.

It is to be noted here that the traditional systems of treatment of physical diseases employ medicines which are mostly administered orally. They, therefore, produces effects only after they have been digested and absorbed into the system. Most part of the medicine taken orally is not utilized by the digestive system. Such medicines may also upset digestion seriously. The same is more or less true for medicines directly injected into the blood. They produce results quicker, but their advert side effects are often more pronounced. White corpuscles of the blood, and sometimes the reaction of the system to the sudden, massive and direct intrusion of foreign matter into the blood through injection prove most serious, and even fatal. In a Yagya, medicines and herbs are vaporized by offering them into the sacrificial fire, and they enter the human body in a gaseous form through the nose, lungs and the pores of the skin. This might be proved to be easiest, least taxing, least risky and most effective method of administering a medicine so as to reach every single cell of the body.

The possibilities of curing mental diseases by Yagya are even more alluring. Diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders is still in the infancy in the modern systems of treatment. There are neither well established diagnostic aids, not any recognized system of treatment of diseases like Neurosis, Psychosis, Schizophrenia, Depression, Tension, Melancholia, Mania, Hysteria, etc. On the other hand, psychosomatic diseases are even more rampant than physical diseases and they wreck the man more than the latter.

Manifestations of psychosomatic diseases except in extreme and advanced cases are not so apparent, and that may explain why enough attention has not been paid to them. The stress and strain of modern life, degradation of social behavior and fall in moral values all around are contributing to an alarming increase in psychosomatic diseases. Yagya might offer a solution to this serious problem as well.

The technique of Yagya for the treatment of physical and mental diseases does not comprise mere vaporization of the constituents or herbs to be employed, but various Samidhas are offered into the sacrificial fire of Yagya to create the desired effects. Research on all these aspects of Yagya is being conducted in the laboratory of Brahmvarchas. It might well lead to the development of a scientifically established Yagyopathy, which may find not only an honored but a leading place in other therapies of the world like Allopathy, Homeopathy, Chromopathy, Naturopathy etc. Looking to the high intellectual caliber and attainments of those who are engaged in research, Yagyopathy may come into being sooner than expected, and it may rank an unique achievement of the modern age.

COUNTLESS MEMORY OF THE SOUND

There cannot be a measure for the acuteness of the power of the mind. It goes faster than a thousand horse powered engine or even than a rocket. If the mind's capabilities are properly controlled and conditioned a man can hear quite distinctly every word of the conversation being carried on between two persons thousands of miles apart, and they can be seen as if sitting very near. Not only this, but it is possible to know what goes on in the mind of persons thousands of miles away. Television and tele-audition are the achievements of a controller mind. The great sage Patanjali propounding the characteristics of Yoga has said:

"The meaning of Yoga is nothing else but controlling the tendencies of the mind." A master yogi can do anything. He can achieve the incomparable ecstasy of knowing God (Brahma) or can overawe the people by displaying miraculous feats. Mesmerism and Hypnotism, which are considered base psychic tricks, do not contribute to any spiritual upliftment of him who practices them. For true upliftment, mind should be directed towards spiritual quest. Even if this quest of the inner self cannot be revealed in concrete results, a reasonable person by reading, knowing and hearing about this wonderful power of the mind can surely endeavor to develop in himself this heavenly mental capacity.

In Nepal, which is the home of Yoga, one will never experience a dearth of miracles. The westerners are aware of this fact. In this connection a western correspondent's experience is worth nothing. He writes, "I was traveling by a river boat in India. As soon as the boat toughed a port, an Indian dressed only in a loin cloth boarded the boat with a bundle. He took a coil of rope lying there. Taking one end of it he knotted it and threw it upwards to the sky with all his might. The knot was going higher and higher and the coil below was being unwound of its own accord, and in a short time the whole coil of rope vanished in the sky. A coconut shell was lying nearby. He filled it with water, the amount of which was meager. Yet pouring the water in a pail, he filled the pail to the brim. He repeated this process and filled fifteen pails in a row. Then he chanted something and raised up his hand, the coconut shell disappeared, and when he lowered his hand there was a pail seen in it. Seeing all this we were so amazed, that we could not make out what all that was?"

Paul Brunton wandered all over India in search of such miracles and as a result of what he saw he wrote a book in support of this secret lore. Louis Jackalion, a French magistrate of Pondichery has also written a book on similar lines in which he has praised very much this secret lore of India. What others look up as wonderful miracles or displays of secret lore are considered by the Yogis as a little glimpse of the power of the mind. Though the display of this power is attractive to observe, it is a serious impediment to the ultimate goal of self-realization. The aim of controlling the mind is to know the True self. By achieving this knowledge man can experience freedom from life's bondage and enjoy bliss of heaven.

In "Ramottartapaniya Upanishad", in the discussion of the capabilities of the mind, it si stated; "The meeting place between the eyebrows and the nose is not only heaven, but something higher than heaven, but it is controlled by nature. Thus knowing Brahma one must worship this meeting point of achieving the un-manifested Brahma is limited to the physical meeting point of the eyebrows and the nose calls the point as spiritual Kashi.

Mind is the chief means of achieving salvation. Lured by desires, man becomes a slave to passions. Enjoyment of passions does not lead to diminishing the force of passions but on the contrary to augmenting them. The powers of the mind are thus dissipated in such loose worldly affairs. Hence for the realization of the Highest Essence, it is desirable to discard all passions and desires of the mind and to concentrate it on the inner self. The pivotal point of creation and continuation is the mind.

Life is perennially new, but the mind is old and ancient. The dust of the past goes on collecting on it and this layer of dust covers the mirror of consciousness. Only the lure of material things remains active. Thus the mind falls into bondage. For the true experience of living, freedom from mind's bondage is essential.

CONTROLLING THE PHYSICAL BODY: ASANS

"Asans" or "easy postures" are a scientific system of exercises developed thousands of years ago by Yogis. They not only maintain the health of the body by stimulating circulation, limbering the joints, toning the muscles, and massaging the internal organs, but they also help to calm and control the mind.

Yoga asans are totally different from vigorous or strenuous exercise; in Asans, glow, gentle movements accompanied by deep breathing is alternated with periods of complete immobility which creates a deep relaxation in the muscles and nerves. During Asans, vital energy is increased rather than spent; and thus, by regular practice, the yogi accumulates a storehouse of internal energy to be used by the mind for the attainment of higher consciousness. By learning to quiet the nerves and bring the body to a total standstill for extended periods of time, one develops control over the muscular and nervous systems, and attains the physical equipoise necessary for long meditation.

But the most important effect of Asans is on the endocrine glands. As we have seen, the endocrine glands have a profound influence on our emotions and on the state of our consciousness. The subtle pressures of yoga Asans on the various endocrine glands affect the hormonal secretions and bring about emotional balance and mental peace. For instance, in the Hare Pose (Sha'shaurga'Sana), the crown of the head is repeatedly pressed against the ground, which exerts a delicate pressure on the pineal gland. By the repeated practice of this Asan, one develops patience and tranquility of mind.

Thus, yoga Asans are not simply physical exercises for health, beauty and long life, as is popularly believed; they are an important part of an integrated physical and psychic practice to refine the body and prepare the mind for higher consciousness.

What we Eat?

 The physical body is not something different and separate from the mind- it is the mind's outermost layer and the base for meditation. In yoga, it is called the "arnnamaya Kosa" or "food layer" because it is composed of the food we eat. As the mind becomes more subtle through meditation, the body must also become more subtle as well otherwise the parallelism between the psychic and physical layers of our being will be lost and our progress will be retarded. Thus, yogis have always emphasized the importance of the vegetarian diet to maintain the purity of the cells of the body, just as the practice of meditation is purifying the layers of the mind.

More and more doctors and nutrition experts are coming to realize that compared to vegetables, meat is a highly toxic source of protein - "50% impure" according to the Encyclopedia Britannica - and may ultimately cause many diseases including gastric and kidney trouble, high blood pressure and even cancer. Societies which consume primarily vegetarian diets, like the Hunzas of Pakistan, Peruvian Indian tribes, or Seventh Day Adventish lower inence of disease and a longer life span than meat-eating populations. Vegetable proteins have been proven to be as nourishing as meat protein, and without any of its harmful effects on the body.

According to yoga, meat-eating has an ill effect on the mind and personality as well, for our minds are subtly agitated by the ingestion of animal flesh. As Albert Einstein - himself a vegetarian - said, "it is my view that the vegetarian manner of living, by its purely physical effect on the human temperament, would most beneficially influence the lot of mankind."

CONTROL OF BODY AND MIND ARE DIFFERENT

Now let us endeavor to enter the domain of mind, examine the reality of soul and experience its existence with the help of paranormal powers inherent in the depths of the mind. All seekers throughout the world have been adopting the same methodology. For understanding elementary facts about any subject, there is no alternative to application of penetrating intelligence inherent in the discovery of the reality of self world also require the aid of illumined intelligence. The science of spirituality calls this process as Yoga.

There are many disciplines of Yoga. Some amongst these are meant for health and physical fitness. Others are for spiritual Sadhana. However, good health is an essential prerequisite for entering the path of this Sadhana. The higher disciplines of Yoga comprise Pratyahar (Inward withdrawal of mind and senses from their objects), Dharana (concentration), Dhyan (meditation) and Samadhi (state of Trance) successively. Spiritual seekers also follow many other disciplines - like, Yam, Niyam, Asan, Pranayama etc. The Hath Yogis carry out procedures of Neti, Dhoti, Vasti, Vajroli and other exercise for physical fitness and control. Other have their own specific methods for physical fitness. All of these are basically meant to keep the body healthy so that problems of the body do not create obstacles in course of mind control exercises. The seekers are advised to maintain good health with simple exercises. In today's environment, it is neither advisable nor necessary to follow the traditional ancient physical exercises of Yoga, involving intricate postures.

It would be unfair to ask a person living in a polluted environment of a city to carry out intense Pranayama practices. Such difficult exercises were prescribed for those seekers of yore who lived in the unpolluted environment of the hills, took only fresh fruits for meals, and used unpolluted water from the mountain springs or streams and observed continence. There is no logic in asking a frog to wear a horseshoe. It would kill the frog. Today there is general awareness about the norms for healthy living and these should be strictly adhered to. If there is some disease, an expert medical practitioner of the discipline may be consulted. For our present objective, however, no such physical standards of health are necessary for which one may require prolonged treatment or prior training. Normal health and a relaxed, happy attitude are the only two prerequisites.

Preparation for meditation

 Choose a quite place. It is advisable to find a place from of things which may provoke fear or distraction. Since it is not always possible to find an ideal, totally noiseless place, as far as possible, a place having least noise may be chosen. It is preferable to have a fixed place for daily meditation. If it is not possible to find an ideal place, that is, in a forest, on a hill or bank of a river, select a small chamber, where mind is not likely to be distracted. Be seated comfortably, keeping the back straight. It is not necessary to stiffen the neck and chest or to cross the legs, since it might induce discomfort in parts of the body, which will repeatedly send signals to the mind, disturbing its equanimity. Let the body be totally loosened, so that all muscles become relaxed. Let each part of the body feel tension-free, peaceful and at complete rest. A comfortable chair is best suited for this posture. Lying flat on the bed, face upwards, would also serve the purpose, but the head has to be raised a little. Alternatively, one may sit with the back resting against a wall, with a cushion behind the back. Whatever be the sitting posture, the bodu should be loosened like a ball of cotton, so that there does not arise any need for changing positions or adjusting the support for comfort. However, care should be taken to adopt a posture in which, on reaching the state of deep meditation, there is no likelihood of topping.

Keep sitting in this way for some time. Let the body feel restful and mind at peace. In the initial stages, it would require somewhat greater effort but later, with practice, the seeker finds it easy to relax irrespective of the place and environment. A word of caution! This exercise is not meant for simply creating a state of relaxation, in which one generally reaches a state of drowsiness, begins to daydream or flies high on the wings of imagination. Remember! This preparation for meditation has a specific purpose. It is required to be practiced as directed, since it has been created deliberately for a specific objective.

Later, with practice, this state of mind in meditation would become a state of natural awareness (consciousness) and would not require any conscious effort to attain. In difficult situations, of life giving rise to fear, misery, pain, apprehension or stress, such as equanimity of mind would become activated without any conscious effort and the seeker would pass through the crisis in an attitude of calm confidence and peace.

Soul is the nucleus of your world

Now in the above state of meditation collect all your thoughts on the nature of "I". Think absolutely nothing about any external person, place, thing or event. Conceptualize, that factually your soul (the real self, 'I') is an independent entity; that it is infinitely powerful, indestructible and indivisible. That it is the central star around which your personal world, ie. Everything related to you, is continuously revolving (is in perpetual cyclic motion) like the planets of the solar system orbiting around the sun. Conceptualize the inner-self as the nucleus of your world, brightly illuminated like The Sun. Resolutely creative such imagery in your mind with the help of the creative nature of your mind. In your mental horizon, establish your soul as a centrally located stationary central star, around which everything related to you is perpetually revolving. Assure yourself that these things around you are dependent on you but that you are not dependent on them and that, though you are providing them energy for their movement; nevertheless they have their separate existence and in no way belong to you. After persistently practicing in this way, in a few days, such awareness will become deep-rooted.

Do not think the picture you are conceptualizing is fallacious or fanciful. It is an exercise to let you appreciate that laws of motion in nature are universally applicabl3e, as much to the living beings as to inert matter. As a matter of fact, each cell/particle, living as well non-living is perpetually in a state of rotation around some nucleus. In the solar system, there are planets revolving around the sun, and the latter too is circumambulating some other invisible nucleus of energy in the universe. The nucleus of energy in our heart makes the blood circulate around the body. It is the natural property of everything tangible or intangible to follow its particular law of cyclic motion. Sound, natural forces, ideologies and atoms of various elements are always moving forward following their particular rotational trajectories. The natural law of motion governing periodical cyclic changes is working everywhere - all around us. (life and activities of followers of particular ideologies revolve around the protagonists of these ideologies) As mentioned above, the soul of an individual being is a nucleus of energy and elements of all natural systems living or non-living, which are related to the individual, move around this central force. In other words, their actions and reactions are indirectly influenced by this nucleus (soul) within a time-space paradigm. On becoming thoroughly convinced about the reality and universality of these natural phenomena, you will notice an unusual transformation in your outlook. You will clearly perceive yourself existing as a nucleus of energy acting on everything related to you. You will find that your world and all material objects related to you such as your house, your car, garment, ornaments, money and property are not an integral part of you; that these have separate existence of their own; that though you are living amongst these, these are alien to you.

(Note: This concept may be further understood in this way. Whatever be the dynamism of interactions between the various animate and inanimate systems related to a person, the driving force behind it is his mind. It is the mind of the individual which created and shapes his world. Further, the mind, as we have discussed earlier is only a tool of the Inner-Self i.e. soul. Hence the soul has been referred to as the central star of the personal world. Besides, as, in spite of being the source of energy to the entire solar system, the sun itself remains unaffected by the dynamics in its system, the soul of a person (not his body) remains an independent entity, uninfluenced by the activities in one's personal world. In this way, the real Self and the associated world, though related, exist independently. An off-quoted classic analogy is the lotus leaf floating on water being in water yet not submerged in it).

CAPACITY OF THE HORMONES IN HUMAN BODY

Chorine Helen's "Occult Anatomy" throws more light on the activities of these ductless glands. He has analyzed their effects on human psychology and shown the possibility of their connection with the spiritual powers. While discussing the questions of 'what is the relation of these glands with the sensory nerves; or, what their anatomical positions are? Etc, the author argues that - "the drastic variations caused by certain chemicals hormones in the state and function of the body and mind cannot be based on some physicochemical reactions only. These astonishing activities are subtle in nature and appear to be governed by the latent effects of super-consciousness. The existence and wonderful functions of these glands thus seem to be direct manifestations of a divine power."

The anatomical details on the size, location and the (hormonal) secreting functions of the principal glands -- Pituitary, Pineal, thyroid, Parathyroid, Thymus, Adrenal, Gonads, and Spleen can be found in any comprehensive book on anatomy and physiology. Findings on new effects of the earlier studied glands and the discoveries of new glands-hormones are frequently reported in the corresponding research journals. Research on neurohormonal chemistry is also growing at a rapid pace and newer results are being obtained and reported almost every month. Detailed discussions of these are neither feasible nor desirable here. It would suffice to note that these glands secreted hormones reach specific points in the body and the brain along with the blood and create wonderful effects. This, in normal conditions results in efficient maintenance of orderly functions of the body and mind. Even a little imbalance or disharmony in the level, stimulation or activities of these 'regulator chemicals' often causes irreparable damage or deformation in the normal growth or health of the physical and mental system of life.

Some people are dwarf, some grow tall up to exceptional and inconvenient limits..; some suffer obsession and some are bony; some youths become impotent while some wander under the thralldom of excessive concupiscence in old age too.; some bear the 'curses' of dull mind and some are 'gifted' with extraordinary brilliance and intellectual power; some over-eat, some hardly eat anything…..; some people can work round-the-clock every day having almost no sleep for several consecutive days but some others, on the contrary, need sound and long sleeps as natural requirement for creativity in the awakened state…… etc - all these diversities and abnormalities are caused by hormonal variations in general.

These disorders are also found as responsible for sudden attacks of certain maladies, disability of specific motor or sensory activity, excitation or numbness of some parts of the body or of some mental faculties, etc. Despite this knowledge and multidimensional research on hormones, no specific method or mechanism has yet been discovered to harmonize the secretions or to rectify the imbalance and restore it to normal hormonal levels.

Oral or intravenous medicines have hardly any effect on the hormone secreting and related activities, in vivo. A surgeon's sophisticated tools also have no reach there. Attempts of controlling a hormonal activity or regularizing its normal concentration by medication, or surgical operations are extremely risky, as they often perturb the fine-tuned natural functions of the tiny glands and/or disrupt the efficacy of hormonal effects and thereby give rise to more severe abnormalities and disabilities.

CALL TO OUTSTANDING PERSONALITIES FOR YUG PARIVARTAN

In Gita's Chapter, little Vibhutiyog Lord Krishna has shown with examples, that He gives a special part of Himself in people with outstanding personalities. As such, just like animals, people too carry on their lives, but those who have special powers, special talents; only they can carry out important deeds. Therefore in sentimental creative campaigns like ushering in of a transformed new era, their presence is essential.

1. Sentiment (Religion and spiritualism): People influenced by the ancientness and philosophy of religion are advised that for increasing the number of followers of their sect, they should not waste their energies in the enthusiasm for converting others to their religion. Our constant effort is for creating mutual tolerance and harmony among religions. Let them have their own forms, but let them be part of a world-religion and plan and use their influence for character-building and welfare and understand that the traditions are of little significance.

The vast amount of money and manpower invested in religion and spiritualism as well as their influence should not be allowed for nurturing selfish and personal interests. The power of religion is equivalent to political power and its power should be used in creative directions. For this purpose the book "Yug Rishi Ka Adhyatma, Yug Rishi Ki Vani Mein" (The spiritualism of this era's savant in his own language) should be read.

2. Education and literature: Religious education, moral education and education for creation of new ideal sentiments - these are complementary to purity of mind. Such education must be conducted at public level and not limited to the few. Similarly people have to take in their own hands the task of adult-education. Cleansed outlook, character formation in these difficult times, the innumerable problems for the formation of a good society and their solutions, creation of a tremendously powerful atmosphere for the good of the world-family - only the schools at the public level will be able to attain these purposes. If elders past the age of fifty years can be encouraged to work for public welfare, then a lot of work can be carried out in this direction.

Literatures are being asked to use their pen in this direction. Poets have been asked to write fiery songs capable of rousing the people from their torpor. Story- writers can do the same through their stories. Journalists should start giving place to such writings in their papers and magazines. Money and talent-both are required for the publishing profession. Not only the writers, but also the publishers, when they join this field, then with their co-operation and harmony, some work will be done. People are to be directly and indirectly inspired in this direction. For detailed information the book "Awake O talent" should be read.

3. Rousing the sentiments through performing arts: Let these schools promote highly inspiring songs, and during every occasion for celebrations, these songs should have priority, the booklets of fiery songs are available everywhere. Let the following be carried out everywhere: music meetings with the singing of Kirtans (hymns), lectures, chorus, action songs, dramas, dances etc and let them carry on the essential task of public welfare through entertainment. Publication of pictures by itself has become a big business. Calendars and pictures are sold in large numbers these days. if inspirational events can be printed in them, they will be of great help in molding the public-mind. Greater co-operation of picture-publishers is required for this purpose.

More than the combined number of newspaper readers and radio-listeners is the number of cinema-goers. If this cinema industry is in the hands of discretionary and far-sighted people and if they use it for cleansing the public's mind and creating an appropriate atmosphere for ushering the new era, then the results can be astonishing. If the outlook of the people already in this industry can be changed and new people enter this industry with new investment and new zeal, then so much work can be done that it is difficult even to imagine at this stage.

4. Science: The achievements of science are astounding. It has created a surprising increase in the facilities for man but it is also true that their misuse has caused untold harm. In the field of weapons-manufacture, gases, rays and atomic-weapons have caused the tragedy of putting the entire world at stake. If these discoveries and inventions are limited to creative purposes, their fruits can create heaven on earth. The biggest task before science is that it should harmonize with spiritualism and prove that the source of power does not lie in atomic power but in the power of the soul.

5. Political power: Those have political power in their hands or will have in the coming days; they should forget narrow nationalism, or appeasing the people of their territories and think of peace and happiness in equal measure for the entire world.

It is the task of governments to battle against immorality, exploitation, crime, bribery and corruption. They can also do quite a lot for removing unemployment, illness and poverty. For this purpose the selfishness and immorality which have taken deep roots in the bureaucrats, clerks and peons will have to be completely uprooted and thrown out. For this the voters in democratic countries will have to be specially explained their duties so that they become successful in electing worthy representatives for good government.

6. Wealth: These days' talented people give the formost importance to money. There is no doubt about the power of money. There is no fault by itself in wealth; the fault lies in its misuse. Doubtless this wealth is to be condemned if it is used in luxury, in satisfying the ego, in hoarding and leaving behind in legacy for children and grandchildren. The coming days will witness a society based on equal distribution of wealth. When the society works on the basis of 'work to capacity and availability of means according to necessity', then not the individual but the society will have the right on wealth and there will be no rich or poor.

The flow of Yug Parivartan (transformation of the era) is going on according to divine inspiration. People co-operating in it will not be at a loss, but will benefit. Nobody should be anxious about losing one's money or investment. That will remain protected and more interest will be available from banks. At the same time, an opportunity presents itself for service to the people by which there will be endless extra-ordinary satisfaction.
