Concept of Vegetarianism in Swamiji's words

The thought waves of previous births of all beings exist in the atmosphere.These thought waves are in the form of channels and life force of the respective person traverses through it during life and after death.During animal slaughter, powerful anti-waves are created in the atmosphere due to the merciless killing of a helpless animal.The atmosphere contains anti waves of the animals which are killed. A person who has slaughtered the animal or consumed the flesh , will be unable to overcome the anti-waves created during the willful slaughter of the helpless animal after death. In order to resist the anti-waves(these prevent the soul from rising from earth's atmosphere) his soul takes the form of the animal in the next birth. In the next birth the animal will become a human being and human being an animal . Here the new human slaughter's the new animal due to previous impressions.This cycle continues until one of them stops killing the other.During animal slaughter, a serum is also formed in the animal which is helpless and under immense fear. This is another powerful negative force acting on the person consuming it.

In the current world, eating meat is projected as a source of protein.Meat has only 22.5% protein when compared to Soya beans which has 42% protein.Vegans also tend to have stronger immune systems and, on average, live 10 years longer than meat-eaters do.(http://www.peta.org/issues/animals-used-for-food/default2.aspx)

Significance of 28th Day Thread Ceremony for Newborns.

It is a common custom followed to tie a black or black and yellow thread around the the waist of a Newborn at the 28th day.Initially this custom was followed  exactly at the 28th day after the child was born.Now since people are pre-occupied with work this ceremony is conducted on a Holiday and extends to 29th or 30th day.Majority of the people do not know the significance of this ceremony why it has to be on the 28th day. There are 28 stars associated with our system starting with Aswathy,Bharani and going up-to Abhijith (28th Star.2.5 Nazhika). Normally Astrologers take only 27 stars into consideration because Abhijith has a short time duration when compared to other stars.But Abhijith is strong during the period when it is present.28 days constitute a Chandra Masa(Moon Month). In 28 days these stars will come face to face with the Moon one by one.The rays from the star will get mixed with the rays of the Moon and Somam( A subtle matter in the form of liquid )...

Reason behind choosing Malayalam month Karkidakam as Ramayana Masam

Ramayana Masam is observed to bring out the importance of Ramayana and not of the month.Karkidakam month is often called  "panja masam"  (lean season).New ventures and auspicious functions(Wedding,House Warming,Vidhyarambham etc ) are not held during this month.Karkidakam marks the begining of Dakshinayanam(southern movement of the sun). Inclement weather,poverty and diseases are the highlights of this month.The effect of which is reflected in mankind and in all living  beings. As per Ayurveda shastra this time is good for all health treatments such as Pizhichil ,Uzhichil etc..The change in the sun's path has significant impact on human beings also. Human body and nature are closely associated.Both bodies are made up of Panchabootham(Earth,Water,Fire,Air and Sky). Any change in Prapancha Sareeram(Nature) has a direct effect on Human body and the society.This is based on the Prana (Life Force) and the body.Phenomenon of Uttarayana and Dakshinayana based on the celesti...

The Significance behind lighting the Lamp(Nila Vilakku or Lighted Oil stand)

The oil stand lamp signifies the light of knowledge,which dispels the darkness of ignorance.It shines itself and causes the objects around to shine due to its reflection.The fire which is at the middle of the five elements-Earth,Water,Fire,Air,Space-and gives them power and heat is the splendour that is at the middle of the body of all living beings. There are three Sandhyas or the juncture-one at dawn, another in the midday and one at dusk.Since the sun shines brilliantly in the midday, no additional lamp is required.But,at the other two sandhyas, an additional lamp is required.It also signifies prosperity,Goddess Lakshmi. Lighting the lamp at dawn -After a nights restful sleep,the body needs the lamp to invigorate the body and mind.It prepares the person for a day with it's luminosity and warmth.It also imparts the much needed energy for the day ahead.The spiritual science evaluates sleep as ignorance and awakening as knowledge.If the mind and intelligence are not alert...
