SCIENTIFIC REASONS BEHIND TEMPLES

INDIA is a home of Temples with varied culture and heritage. 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.

Usually 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 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 and 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 Moolasthanam / Garbagraham. 

Theertham, the “holy” water used during the pooja to wash the idol is not plain 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 are 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. 

 

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 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. 

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.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE SLEEP?

Do you sleep everyday? This question may look rubbish to almost all the people, because everyone will sleep atleast a minimum of 20% of a day. But how many of you know what happens every time we get a bit of shut eye? Sleep occurs in a recurring cycle of 90 to 110 minutes and is divided into two categories: 4 stages of non-REM and REM sleep.

Non-REM sleep

Stage 1 - Light Sleep: In this stage of sleep, we're half awake and half asleep. Our muscle activity slows down and slight twitching may occur. This is a period of light sleep, meaning we can be awakened easily at this stage.

Stage 2 - True Sleep: Within ten minutes of light sleep, we enter this stage, which lasts around 20 minutes. The breathing pattern and heart rate start to slow down which accounts for the largest part of human sleep.

Stages 3 - Deep Sleep: Here, the brain begins to produce delta waves, a type of wave that is large (high amplitude) and slow (low frequency). Breathing and heart rate are at their lowest levels.

Stage 4 - Deep Sleep: It is characterized by rhythmic breathing and limited muscle activity. If we are awakened during deep sleep we do not adjust immediately and often feel groggy and disoriented for several minutes after waking up. Some children experience bed wetting, night terrors or sleepwalking during this stage.

 

REM sleep

The first rapid eye movement (REM) period usually begins about 70 to 90 minutes after we fall asleep. We have around three to five REM episodes a night. Although we are not conscious, the brain is very active - often more so than when we are awake. This is the period when most dreams occur. Our eyes dart around, our breathing rate and blood pressure rise. However, our bodies are effectively paralyzed, said to be nature's way of preventing us from acting out our dreams. After REM sleep, the whole cycle begins again.

Semiconductor Fabrication & Wafer Processing

Can u imagine a world without electricity? Similarly can u live without using any electronic devices? Everyone will say NO to both the questions. Electronic items have become a part of our day to day life. Do u know the heart of such devices? Yes. It’s none other than semiconductors. Semiconductors, sometimes referred to as computer chips or ICs, contain numerous electrical pathways which are capable of connecting up to a billion transistors and other electronic components. These transistors store information on the semiconductors, either by holding an electrical charge or by holding little or no charge. When we need semiconductor equipment in our factory, we certainly look for the best offers in the manufacturer company producing high quality semiconductor equipment. But it is easier with the availability of Used Semiconductor Equipment . This equipment makes the initial cost higher and tends many local people to go for the small scale industries.

The development of semiconductor technology is in the rising mode and now there inventions in this field are numerous. Surplus Semiconductors Manufacturing Sys produce high quality semiconductors with the advance of technology and as per the latest trends. Though it brings a revolution in the field of electronics, the semiconductor wastes produced during the manufacturing process dugs into the ground produces pollution in various forms that may turn to be toxic. But now we got a solution in the form of recycling process with the help of Used Wafer Process Tools. This tool is reliable and this not only gains money but also resolves many pollution issues. So if we go for a good profit and stand as a social responsible person, surely it helps you through this recycling. So used wafer process tool is considered to be secure environmentally equipment which you can buy in reduced prices in some sites.

WOMEN need more sleep than MEN

            

Recently I read an interesting article about the sleeping hour comparison of men and women with some medical explanation. According to it, Women need more sleep than men - around 20 minutes of more sleep on an average, owing to their busy and multi-tasking brain. As the women’s brains are wired differently from men’s and are more complex, their sleep need is slightly greater and so women need 20 minutes more shut-eye than the average man. One of the major functions of sleep is to allow the brain to recover and repair itself. During deep sleep, the cortex part of the brain is responsible for thought memory, language and so on which disengage from the senses and goes into recovery mode. The more a person uses his brain during the day, the more sleep he needs at night to recover. Women tend to multi-task and so they use more of their actual brain than men do. Because of that, their sleep need is greater. Of course, a man who has a complex job that involves a lot of decision-making and lateral thinking may also need more sleep than the average male, though probably still not as much as a woman. But I found lot of girls getting up early in the morning even though they go to bed very late. I feel very bad and I request all my friends to take a deep sleep during night hours but not in the classrooms or offices.

MEN – WOMEN ATTRACTION by HUMOUR

A study shows that women think that funny men are smarter and more likely to be honest than others. Although studies have shown that humour is not linked to intelligence, Women have evolved to find intelligence in it because it suggests that a man will be a good provider for her and her children. Women believe humour as an indication of a guy's intelligence, an attractive quality and only a clever man should be more able to provide resources for his offspring. Some celebrities stated that ‘being funny helped him to attract women from his teenage years onwards’. Also people don’t look at physical imperfections if he is provided with humorous character

To rate the attractiveness of a sense of humour in the study, 45 heterosexual women were asked to read shorts descriptions of themselves compiled by 20 men, 10 of which were scored as extremely funny and 10 as only slightly funny. The women were then asked how intelligent and honest they thought that the men were and how likely they would be to go on to develop a friendship or a long-term relationship with them. The findings show that men who used the funniest descriptions of themselves were thought to be significantly more intelligent than those who weren't as witty. The women in the study also judged the men who had a good sense of humour as more honest and said that they would be better catch for a long-term relationship. While women appear to prefer men who makes them laugh, the same does not hold true when the sexes are reversed - and men are not more attracted to funny girls.

HOW CANCER SPREAD IN BRAIN

For the first time, a research at the Oxford University shows how cancers that spread to the brain establish themselves and begin to grow.The article published in the journal PLoS ONE, has identified the mechanism that metastatic cancer cells use to anchor themselves to blood vessels in the brain.This could allow new drugs to be developed to stop cancers from spreading and growing in the brain.

Metastasis is the process where cancer breaks out from where a tumour has initially grown and spreads to other parts of the body.It is the reason why cancer is fatal.Brain metastases are the most common malignant tumours of the central nervous system(CNS) outnumbering by ten times those that originate in the brain.Over 20 per cent of all cancer patients will eventually develop metastatic cancer in CNS. Dr W Shawn Carbonell says that "Metastasis to the brain is essentially terminal, and very little is known about the process by which it occurs.But by quickly remedying our lack of knowledge, we hope to be able to come up with new and better ways of treating such cancers."

The Oxford University team finds an answer for how do tumour cells grow in the brain? They looked at a comprehensive range of cancer cell types from humans and mice breast cancer cell lines, melanoma cells and a lymphoma cell line and examined how the cells establish themselves in the brain in laboratory studies, using both mice and human tissue samples.Previously it had been assumed that tumour cells grew on the cells that make up the grey and white matter of the brain: the neurons and glial cells.However, no proper studies have been done before and there is little evidence to back this up one way or another.Instead found that cancer cells start to grow on brain's blood vessel walls and not on the nerve cells.
