Solar Rhythms

The Appollonians ( as the solar people are called ) are more sensitiveto changes of solar seasons than the lunarian changes. With the onsetof winter spring, summer & autumn they may find profound changestaking place in their physiological processes & mental activity.

The existence of these biorhythms were confirmed by research eventhough superficial minds may not be able to detect these biorhythms.A spiritual aspirant should recognise his biorhythms & adjust his prayer, meditation & acitivities in accordance with tese rhythms.Minor stomach upsets, pain in joints, disturbed sleep, change ofmood etc are associated with biorhythms & the seeker shoud not be upset by these minor changes.

Why holistic health practices fail or succeed partially

Main reason for the failure of holisitc health practices is that Pranaor Life Energy does not flow freely within the individual or betweenthe individual & the universal life, owing to the presence of obstructionswithin.These obstructions are caused by Samskaras, psychic memoriesor residual traces of our past actions and experiences. Samskarasare of two kinds, those which only produce memories ( smriti ) ofpast experiences and those which produce impulses or drivesto repeat these experiences ( vasanas) . These two are interlinkedto form complex patterns of love, hate, fear etc. It is these complexesthat obstruct the free flow of Life-Energy in us.

Removing Mental Blocks

Many of these complexes are formed in childhood and adolescence.When unpleasant or traumatic experiences take place, the tendencyof a child or teenager is to repress them. Repression is a form ofpushing the psychic memories into the unconscious regions of the mind. The growing youth may not be able to recollect those psychicmemories again, but the repressed samskaras lodged in the hidden recesses of the unconscious go on creating psychological and
psychosomatic problems for him.

All psychosomatic disorders cannot be cured by holistic health tech-niques unless these repressed complexities are ferreted out and confronted. The past samskaras should be deactivated. For thisthe seeker has to dive deep into his unconscious & encounter the past experiences and deactivate them.

Most people find it difficult to do it without the active help of acompetent guide. Those who depend on the Ocean of Consciousness( the Absolute or God ) may , however, find that these inner blocksare removed by Divine Grace. This is the rationale behind faith healing & miraculous cures.

Extension of Consciousness

Life,a gift from the Divine, is a great healing power. Nothing everbegins to be; Substance merely undergoes a parallel transformationinto conditions which pre-existed in other conditions. Life, similarly,does not begin to be. As Energy, as per the Law of Conservation ofEnergy or Matter cannot be created or destroyed, so too is Life Eternal.

At the physical level, the eternal healing power of life manifests itself as

a) Self-renewal
b) The immune system.
