BHUDDHI & GYANAM ARE NOT EXCLUSIVE TO HUMAN

In an earlier blog covered my observations on the above topic w.r.t sparrows nesting using their skill and intelligence. 

I have always been a plant lover. I also observe closely the growth, response to attention, changes and so on, learning in the process. I deem plant-rearing educative and interesting. I have not turned my attention to commercialize it at any time. Not profit motivated. But derive pleasure and satisfaction. In fact, this interest keeps me active even in old age.

About five months back, I brought a small section of a Lotus root, roughly 2Cm diametrically and 8Cm long, and kept it in a household bucket, covered it with a mixture of soil and sand, and keeping a stone on it, arresting the possibility of going afloat, exposing most of it for possible growth, in the event of survival. As my love for the plant would have it, it developed leaves shortly that could be seen immersed in water, giving me joy. Lotus is considered sacred in India and it takes a pride place in religious offerings, especially during festivals. Thus, it is a holy flower. 

Very soon, could notice the affluence of leaves, all afloat, giving the impression, the bucket used was too small for the growth of the plant. I changed taking care and shifted to a bigger bucket. The plant got acclimatized, withstood the climate changes of cold, rain, warmth, and hotter environs, clearly exhibiting its growth, leaving alone my doubts of survival. With the result, a change again into a larger circular container of 2ft dia. and 2 1/2ft high became necessary.  At this stage, the soil was improved adding some manure to further improve the growth of the Lotus plant. 

The Lotus plant not only survived, it started showing its buds. In the last month or so, gracefully blooming, yielding five colorful and eye-catching beauties, giving tremendous satisfaction and fulfillment. Could notice the response of the buds blooming with sunrise and closing with sunset and their span of life is only two days. The first two blooms were left untouched. The third was plucked to adorn the family deity in our residence, giving satisfaction to one and all.

Yesterday, for the first time keenly inspected the little improvised pond. Noticed the perished tubular stems and the flowers, partly afloat and partly immersed, educating me and giving the impression that the plant could sense to not only present the glow and beauty of the leaves and flowers, but also is aware of how to discard and dispose the lifeless parts, a clear indicator to think of other plant species and their disposition. 

These observations strengthen my views on the Creator and HIS or HER Creativity.

Aura

 A U R A As the title suggests, intend to write, my views, on the subject of Aura. It has been fascinating me for a while. The subject was just touched upon earlier in some of my Google Bloggs. The topic is difficult, not easy to deal with, nor well understood, and perhaps with barely any information and knowledge on it. All the same, venturing to vent out, with my scientific and religious background, with the earnest hope of drawing the attention of those interested to prioritize the study and studies on Auras and Aural investigations, benefiting mankind. Aura prevails and persists with all the forms of life, existing, thanks to Almighty, for believers. Aura surrounds, individuals, and individual living lives of humans, animals, inclusive of flying birds, sea borne animals, insects; and plants and plant life. Aura acts as a communicator for transference of useful information about the individual; as an example, let us consider a human being. The five basic elements, called ‘Pancha...

HINDU WORSHIP AND WISDOM

  HINDU WORSHIP AND WISDOM   Hinduism engulfs ‘Hindu worship’, as one of the several Hindu practices. Worship of God, offering prayers, at home, and in Temples have been in vogue for ages past, and such practices have inculcated unity in the Hindus, wherever they may be. Such worship, helped the community to elevate themselves, both physically and mentally. Worship also provided a unifying force, for a form of orderliness in the prayers. Worship and prayers, got diversified with the passage of time, resulting in other forms of expressing devotion, like group singing, Nagara Sankeerthana, the evolution of discourses, pravachanas, a mix of dancing with singing, dancing with animals like oxen, and so on. Worship also provided other practices like involvement of animals like elephants, horses, camels, in pageantry; while monkeys and bears became a part of a form of puppetry; and so also the use of parrots and sparrows for trying once luck in predicting from astrological predetermi...
