Beej Mantra Chikitsa

Beej Mantra is the shortest form of a Mantra just like a Beej (seed) which when sown grows into a tree. When recited together these Beej Mantras give humans lot of positive energy. They are the vibrations, and represent the “call” of the soul. It is a belief that when the universe was created then the sounds produced during the cosmic evolution were basically the Beej mantras. After attaining knowledge of the Beej Mantras and understanding its connections with Mind, Body & Soul, the individual can use subtle energy to heal physical and psychological ailments.

Kshakti is energy in modern concept and more than 200+ energy forms are described in Durga Saptashati alone. Healing in sanskrit is known by more than 45 terms one of the most suited is Ishkriti . Energy Healing or Ishkriti is not a new concept all the sages, saints, and ayurvedacharya have been practicing the art from long ago. Though not all the modalities are recorded, still, one can see hundreds of them . Life-force, Prana Rayi as described by Prashnopanishad describes Sun , Time etc as source of Energy which because of Rotation and Revolution of the Earth (described as Rayi) is also a cause of Energy . Thus the movement of whole of Universe and Light is considered as the cause of Energy Healing popularly as Ishkriti . The information , energy and matter triad is Sat Raj Tam in our system . Energy's subtle nature makes energy intangible for the ordinary senses thus a small training on experiencing highier sensitivity one can feel, see, and experience the existence of energy. For sensitive eyes, it looks like a luminous field of light, surrounding the physical body and interpenetrating it. Thus what affects this energy field, affects the physical body too; that is also how dirty energies, thoughts, and emotions develop into poor physical health.

In Puraan it is described Sat Raj Tam forms the basis of creation of our Universe and Brahmanaad acts as a means of creation . This naad became the basis of Maheshwar Sutra and other Shiv Sutra and thus beejmantra are formed in the journey or parts of brahmanaad. So we connected energy sensitivity measuring experiences and observed the patterns , placed the energy in different parts of the body (Nyaas theory) and observed reduction in pain anxiety depression and gain in mental health and immunity was observed.

A need was felt to observe the phenomenon in different epics in sanskrit and hindi so that the future generations may learn to use the traditional wisdom knowledge practices existed in past but now a lost science. So that in future the worth of research on sanskrit scriptures can be acknowledged only on the basis of past and instead of transformation to the modern system of knowledge( original system should be implemented.)

Here the mantras are the sacred words having spiritual potency. RamCharitManas describes the cause of disease as Moh (Agyaan), Vaat(Kaam), Kaph(Lobh) & Pitta (Kroadh) and all three are thoughts, so he interpreted the cause of disease is our thoughts (Desires-Wants) and mantras (purpose) are also thoughts which counters negativity caused by thoughts.

Their power is not in the word themselves but in the emotion – Ras vibration created when they are uttered mentally. Mantra – the soul therapy of healing effect on the body, mind and soul through the movement of praan, oaj, tej and it changes the chemical in brain which relaxes the brain (theta outburst), detoxify the mind, cleansing the cellular toxin. Mantra instill confidence, improve concentration and soul therapy is the medicine of the future, soul as a creator of mind & body wave of consciousness protects us from several diseases and reforms the future.

The thesis of beejmantra chikitsa goes to fill a gap between divergent causes of disease under the three prevalent therapies. It looks at the initial stage of creation, prior to the doshas, miasms or pathogens recognized by the three prevalent therapies. It looks into the intelligence of body cells of which body mass is made and its connection with the intelligence in the Universe. The intelligence of cells can be supported or directed by certain specific sounds known as beejmantras.

Vedas is a treatise of Knowledge and from the 4 vedas we have 4 upvedas . In Gandharvaved there is a term Tauryatrikya which is used for Taal and hence controls Gayan Vaadan and Nritan . Taal represents Time or Kaal in music , it represents Aayu in Aayurved , Artha(meaningful) in Arthashastra and Dhanu (backbone)Dhanurved . Thus the same term is represented in all 4 treatise as Kaal(Time) or Mahakaal . In modern context the terms are information , energy & matter to controlled by time , Sat Raj and Tam as controlled by Kaal - Vaat Pitt and Kaf as Controlled by Aayu . The trik Siddhant is a term given in tantra where it is Shiv, Shakti and Naad( Resonance of Shiv n Shakti which is Matter). So just by understanding of one nothing remains to know .

The princes of those days were educated on that oneness by virtue of which they were able to evaluate the knowledge of specialist of all the Arts and the Subject Domains. Knowing that one subject makes the individual efficient , disciplined , Knowledgeable , Thoughtful , Spiritual and above all a Leader with Ethical Values - a much needed procedure for today's time where today our knowledge triad is of Controlling the Knowledge - Reading , Speaking , Writing. Kautilya also advocates compulsary education through Vedas and Upvedas with Puraanic and Uppuraanic stories and Upanishad's for Character development of the Princes and called it RaajVidya for uplifting capabilities of the RaajPurush (Those who have to rule). In language taxonomy Sanskrit is as synthesis level language while other languages like english are analytical level languages , a synthesis repairs or recreates what is damaged , ShabdaBrahma does that recreation and it exists in Gaayan , Vaadan and Nritan
