Couple of months ago, I had read that Mantra (Hymns) from Rigveda when recited, emit many positive
radiations in the form of electromagnetic waves. And a friend of mine had told me
that priests avoid reciting these shloka
after losing out their teeth as they don’t get the sounds right and if not done properly, it will
have a bad effect on them. At that time, I had a feeling that these two are somehow connected but did not
get much into it further.
Yesterday, I came across a blog post (it is in Kannada;
Link: http://princessoftheocean.blogspot.in/),
which explains the scientific angle of some our practices, like using a lemon
and chilly to get rid of ‘bad eye’ or ‘evil effect’. It puts forward a view
that these objects can absorb infrared radiations which generally have a
negative effect on us. Reading it helped me put together missing links in my
thinking.
Today, I came across this article on Business World (http://www.businessworld.in/news/science-and-technology/tech-talk/technology-&-apps-to-make-you-happy/1840399/page-1.html)
which says how tech can be used to reproduce the brain waves which help us get rid of
anxiety or get better sleep or feel like a Monk by listening to the music which
tunes your mind to the requirement. It provided couple of links of those who have made it a business already. So I got into the site - https://www.binauralbeatsmeditation.com/.
On this site, you can listen to sample audio. I tried and felt it works. I was
amazed with this research work.
BW article provides many more links worth exploring (like http://www.happify.com/). I have a strong
sense that this business of happiness
can grow to a considerable size with so many people around us searching for
happiness.
Sounds great! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sudha!
DeleteThis is amazing... may be more of a breakthru' than artificial intelligence... However, I tend to think that there could be limits to unconscious manipulation of Consciousness... We will need research... This video throws some light on the need for conscious effort... http://youtu.be/FKg_FjS3qZw
ReplyDeletePS: thanks to Rashmi for introducing me to Anand's wide-ranging body of work in terms of the blog posts!
Thanks Bhoopalan for stopping by. Research in this field is already turning into many commercial products. But human mind is complex. More closer we get to decoding happiness, I think it will move far away. So the success from advancement of science would become temporary and mastering this subject may well remain elusive.
