Color Therapy - Chromotherapy




It has been known for eons of time that color plays a major role in setting up a particular mood or state of mind. Color does affect one's feelings, moods, and emotions.

Colors are certain wavelengths of electro-magnetic energy seen through our eyes. The color we see is the part of the visible spectrum that is reflected back by a certain object.

We know that when all colors join the result is white light. Therefore working with White Light brings about completeness, oneness, union of all complementary parts.

Colors affect us in different ways:

Color is one of the languages of the soul, just look at inspired or meditative paintings.
They influence our mood and emotions.
They have their impact on our sense of well-being or un-easiness.
Using and avoiding certain colors is a way of self-expression; it sheds light on our personality.
Colors affect our way of perception (light colors make a space look big, a high ceiling looks less high when painted in a dark color, etc.)
Colors have a symbolic meaning which is immediately recognized by our subconsciousness. It must be said that not all colors mean the same to all persons and all cultures.
They influence the flow and amount of energy in our bodies.
Colors tell something about biological attraction and sexual availability.
Before examining color and its healing implications, we must address a very important concept: that of cause and effect. True healing comes about when the cause of the condition or illness is addressed and transformed. If healing goes no further than a mere relief or masking of the symptoms, then, eventually, that which brought about the need for healing, in the first place, will resurface and manifest itself within the body in one form or another.

Body is an outward expression of that which is taking place within the mind, the soul (subconscious) , and the spirit (superconscious) of the individual. Thus, any healing technique which deals only with the physical body and the energy field of the individual tends to accomplish one thing: it jump starts the individual, so to speak, and gives him or her an added boost of energy. That energy boost then allows that person's own internal healing mechanism to become mobilized into greater activity.

Keeping this in mind, let us look at how color can help jump-start the tired or diseased body. Color healing, known as Chromotherapy, can be implemented in a number of ways. The ancients built great halls of color healing, where individuals entered and were bathed in light that was filtered through various colored glass panels or windows.

Energy (spiritual) healers often supplement their healing work with color healing. As they lay their hands on the patient, they mentally direct specific color rays into the patient's aura and body. Oftentimes, the color used is inspired by the superconscious.

In healing colors act as balancers: we administer the color(s) someone needs more of, or we give the opposite of the color someone has too much of.

Guru Sri Brahspati Gold Plated Yantra



Product Description

24 K. Gold Plated Brass Colorful Yantra. Approximately Size: 3 1/4" x 3 1/4".

Yantras are usually used for counteracting the harmful effects of planets. Besides countering negative effects, Yantras also increase the planets' beneficial aspects in our lives. Yantras and mantras are connected together since each Yantra has a corresponding mantra. The yantras are also representative of different deities. According to Ayurveda, there is also a definite relationship between Vedic talisman and the elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether.

By proper prayers and perfect recitation of specific mantras, the material elements can be invoked to move in the way desired by the worshiper.

ntroduction to the Pancaratra and the Ahirbudhnya Samhita (Classic Reprint)


Product Description

The literature of the Paucaratras, like other
sectarian literatures, falls into two broad divisions
comprising respectively works of inspired or divine origin
and such as are of human authorship. The latter class,
entirely dependent on the former, consists chiefly of what
are called vidhi and prayoga : digests, commentaries,
extracts and studies on special subjects, and the like.
The former class, with which alone we are here concerned,
consists of the Samhitas or " compositions " (compendia),
that is, metrical works dealing, in so many chapters
(adhydya, patala), with a number of topics, if not the
whole, of the Paficaratra system. The name Samhita, as
is well known, is also applied to the Law-books (" Mann
Samhita", etc.) and need not, therefore, indicate any
intention to imitate or replace the Vedic Sarnhitas, which
are compilations of a very different character. Instead
of Samhita the name Tantra is often used, evidently in
exactly the same sense, and both these words, as also
the word Kancla,* are also applied to each of the main
topics of a philosophical or religious system. For instance,
in the twelfth chapter of Ahirbudhnya Samhita we read
of the Bhagavat Samhita, Karma Samhita, Vidya
SamMta, and seven other Samhitas, and equally of the
Pati Tantra, Pas'u Tantra, Pas-a Tantra, etc., constituting
respectively the Sattvata and the Pasrupata systems.

Unity With The Divine

19,000 Years of World History


Review

Readers who enjoy Joseph Campbell's the Powers of Myth Series as well as
books like Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond will be fascinated by 19,000 Years
of World History
--Foreword Clarion Reviews

A far-reaching study of..world religions and their beginnings,linguistics,biology,genetics,anthropology,archeology and geology..as if writer were giving a lecture to 6 billion people about their origins..massive amounts of knowledge and research here --Foreword Clarion Reviews

Product Description

There is a lot of mystery in the history of man - while mainstream historians say that civilization developed only in the last five to six thousand years, which is what is taught in schools, there is humungous amount of evidence that man's story is much older than this date. There are any number of accounts about lost history of Atlantis, Lemuria, Mayans, Indians, and others. These accounts, however, stop there. They only provide small chunks of lost history; they do not provide the holistic historic picture. This book constitutes the first ever attempt to provide an alternate timeline for various civilizations across the world for the last nineteen thousand years, pushing back the timeline of man by three times.

In a first of its kind attempt, this book constructs human history from scriptures of Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, and other religions and cultures. Conclusions drawn are connected to archaeological findings, linguistics, worldwide conflagrations, beliefs, cultural practices, festival celebrations, local legends, etc. In a complete rewrite of current history books, the book meticulously constructs a detailed history of civilized man, 19000 years in the making. The book, written in an easy to read prose for any educated person, not just shows the precise way in which these religions were born, but also answers most of their unresolved theological questions.

Based on evidence compiled after two decades of painstaking research, Prithviraj gives a completely new dimension and a fascinating understanding of World History. The book dates Egyptian and Indian civilizations to 17,000 years ago, dates Sri Lankan civilization to 16,000 years ago, and Persian and Mesopotamian civilizations to 15,000 years ago. It talks about the catastrophic disturbances on earth's surface 11,500 years ago, which led to the birth of new religions. It talks about ancient wars that took place between India, Persia, and Mesopotamia. It talks about ancient world politics between Egypt and Sri Lanka. It talks about the massive migrations that took place all over the world 4000 years ago. The book takes the reader on a fascinating journey into the unexplored domains of Ancient World History.

Learn Samputita Sri Suktam


Editorial Reviews

In this learning CD, Amma teaches the pronunciation of each word, and also chants the entire Samputita Sri Suktam, so that listeners can easily follow along and learn. The Sri Suktam is a beautiful Vedic hymn that describes Divine Mother Lakshmi's supreme love and compassion for her children. The Samputita Sri Suktam combines the Sri Suktam with the Rig Veda Maha Lakshmi Mantra as well as a powerful hymn to Sri Durga Devi, in order to increase the spiritual benefits of chanting this hymn. Chanting this every day will bring every form of wealth and every kind of protection. In the Samputita Sri Suktam, very powerful mantras from the Chandi Saptasati are incorporated into the Sri Suktam, which magnifies its auspicious energy. In addition, a wonderful Lakshmi mantra is also added, which contains the auspicious seed syllables "Srim" and "Hrim." These seed syllables, or bijaksharas, are extremely powerful and shower the subtle nervous system with divine nectar. Amma recommends the chanting of Sri Suktam or Samputita Sri Suktam every day. According to the Vedas, we can overcome all karmic difficulties if we chant the Sri Suktam in front of a Sri Chakra every day. When the Samputita Sri Suktam is chanted in front of a Sri Chakra, the sacred vibrations of the sounds are attracted to the central point, or bindu, of the Sri Chakra. As the sound vibrations focus and become absorbed in the bindu, a tremendous cosmic energy emanates from the Sri Chakra and blesses the chanter as well as the entire household. It has been said that chanting the Samputita Sri Suktam in front of a Sri Chakra is equal to chanting all four Vedas ten million times.

Yantras of Deities and Their Numerological Foundations: An Iconographic Consideration


This volume has many large prints of yantras but is lacking in any real depth of description of the historical, cultural, and functional background of the role of the yantra in contemplative practice. While the bibliography is better than in many western books dealing with yantra, it is a bit weak (does not even include Giuseppi Tucci's classic "Yantra".
I myself am an iconographer and have a Master's degree in Asian Studies: Indian Philosophy, but my primary interest is in the practical application or usage of yantra in contemplative visualization. Accordingly I have been seeking books (such as Tucci's) that discuss cosmological and metaphysical issues in a deeper way than just to describe the yantra. On the plus side, this book has many nice colorful prints of yantras and they seem to be named correctly, so it would be a good purchase for those buying it as a "coffee table gift" I suppose. If you are looking for a deeper understanding of how yantras are applied as metaphysical tools to deepen your practice, I would not look here.

(Danny Paradise, international ashtanga yoga instructor )

"Forget Sudoku, Nine Designs for Inner Peace provides templates, instructions, and background information on nine ancient yantras that correspond to the mind-body-spirit states essential to well-being . . . Tomlinson's step-by-step directions make the process simple."
(New Age Retailer, Jan 2008 )

"Even if you aren't looking for another method to find inner peace, you'll get addicted to making yantras and decorating your walls with them." (
Elizabeth Stannard Gromisch, Feminist Review, Feb 2008
)

Product Description

A complete guide to creating planetary yantras to access their healing and centering benefits

• Provides easy-to-follow instructions to create the yantras

• Serves as an introduction to active meditation, which focuses the mind while the body is engaged in a meditative activity

The tantric art of drawing or painting the nine designs known as yantras is an ancient practice of active meditation that releases positive healing and centering effects. Each of the nine designs corresponds to one of the nine qualities of body and mind essential to well-being: radiance, nourishment, passion, intellect, expansion, bliss, organization, uniqueness, and spirituality. From the basic elements of the square, the circle, and the triangle, dynamic visual meditations unfold as the practitioner works clockwise from the outer elements inward toward the central point of stillness, or bindu, the source of happiness within. An accompanying mantra is recited while preparing each yantra to fully engage the senses in the meditative process.

Creating the design that “speaks” most to the practitioner enables its unique healing quality to be transmitted. For example, working on the yantra named “Radiance” cultivates optimism and the self-confidence to succeed in one’s endeavors, while “radiating,” or imparting, one’s inner light to others.

This workbook provides an important resource for active meditation, a practice revered for its effectiveness in revealing the spiritual underpinnings of everyday life. The active participation of the body in meditation while creating the nine planetary yantras raises to the level of spiritual ritual the practitioner’s intention toward wakefulness and gives access to profound states of healing integration.
