Scientific Reason :There are thousands of temples all over
India in different size, shape and locations but not all of them are considered
to be built the Vedic way. Generally, a temple should be located at a place
where earth's magnetic wave path passes through densely. It can be in the
outskirts of a town/village or city, or in middle of the dwelling place, or on
a hilltop. The essence of visiting a temple is discussed here.Now, these
temples are located strategically at a place where the positive energy is
abundantly available from the magnetic and electric wave distributions of
north/south pole thrust.
The main idol is placed in the core center of the
temple, known as "*Garbhagriha*" or *Moolasthanam*. In fact, the
temple structure is built after the idol has been placed. This *Moolasthanam*
is where earth’s magnetic waves are found to be maximum. We know that there are
some copper plates, inscribed with Vedic scripts, buried beneath the Main Idol.
What are they really? No, they are not God’s / priests’ flash cards when
they forget the *shlokas*. The copper plate absorbs earth’s magnetic waves and
radiates it to the surroundings. Thus a person regularly visiting a temple and
walking clockwise around the Main Idol receives the beamed magnetic waves and
his body absorbs it. This is a very slow process and a regular visit will let
him absorb more of this positive energy. Scientifically, it is the positive
energy that we all require to have a healthy life.Further, the Sanctum is
closed on three sides. This increases the effect of all energies. The lamp that
is lit radiates heat energy and also provides light inside the sanctum to the
priests or *poojaris* performing the pooja.
The ringing of the bells and the
chanting of prayers takes a worshipper into trance, thus not letting his mind
waver. When done in groups, this helps people forget personal problems for a
while and relieve their stress. The fragrance from the flowers, the burning of
camphor give out the chemical energy further aiding in a different good aura.
The effect of all these energies is supplemented by the positive energy from
the idol, the copper plates and utensils in the *Moolasthan*am / *Garbagraham*.
*Theertham*, the “holy” water used during the pooja to wash the idol is
notplain water cleaning the dust off an idol. It is a concoction of
Cardamom,*Karpura* (Benzoin), zaffron / saffron, *Tulsi* (Holy Basil),
Clove, etc...Washing the idol is to charge the water with the magnetic
radiations thus increasing its medicinal values. Three spoons of this holy
water is distributed to devotees. Again, this water is mainly a source of
magneto-therapy. Besides, the clove essence protects one from tooth decay, the
saffron & *Tulsi* leafs protects one from common cold and cough, cardamom
and *Pachha Karpuram* (benzoin), act as mouth fresheners. It is proved that
*Theertham* is a very good blood purifier, as it is highly energized. Hence it
is given as *prasadam* to the devotees. This way, one can claim to remain
healthy by regularly visiting the Temples.
This is why our elders used to
suggest us to offer prayers at the temple so that you will be cured of many
ailments. They were not always superstitious. Yes, in a few cases they did go
overboard when due to ignorance they hoped many serious diseases could be cured
at temples by deities.
When people go to a temple for the *Deepaaraadhana*, and
when the doors open up, the positive energy gushes out onto the persons who are
there. The water that is sprinkled onto the assemblages passes on the energy to
all. This also explains why men are not allowed to wear shirts at a few temples
and women are requested to wear more ornaments during temple visits. It is
through these jewels (metal) that positive energy is absorbed by the women.
Also, it is a practice to leave newly purchased jewels at an idol’s feet and
then wear them with the idol’s blessings. This act is now justified after
reading this article.
This act of “seeking divine blessings” before using any
new article, like books or pens or automobiles may have stemmed from this
through mere observation.Energy lost in a day’s work is regained through a
temple visit and one is refreshed slightly. The positive energy that is spread
out in the entire temple and especially around where the main idol is placed,
are simply absorbed by one's body and mind.
Did you know, every
Vaishnava(Vishnu devotees), “must” visit a Vishnu temple twice every day in
their location. Our practices are NOT some hard and fast rules framed by 1 man
and his followers or God’s words in somebody’s dreams. All the rituals, all the
practices are, in reality, well researched, studied and scientifically backed
thesis which form the ways of nature to lead a good healthy life.The scientific
and research part of the practices are well camouflaged as “elder’s instructions”
or “granny’s teaching’s” which should be obeyed as a mark of respect so as to
once again, avoid stress to the mediocre brains.
