SURYAKSHETRA (64)

What this little man speaks………………………………………………..

Quotes: Genius is a long patience
The best part of the beauty is that which no picture can express.

My articles on Arthritis, depression, diabetes, high blood pressure are appreciated by many and the inspiration which I derived out of such appreciation is the cause for continuing the subject. I HAVE BEEN TAKING THE PRIVILEGE OF BRINGING BEFORE YOU WHAT MYSTERIOUS REMEDIAL ACTION IS AVAILABLE THROUGHOUT THE GLOBE ON EACH AREA..

This time “Eye problems” are taken to this as it is said –SARVENDRIYAANAM NAYANAM PRADHANAM. The eye is said to the best and most essential input to the human body out of nine channels. Now straight to the subject, inflammations of the eye can be painful and produce redness, swelling and irritation. Conjunctivitis or pink eye is an inflammation of the conjunctive, the delicate membrane that lines the inner curve of the eyelid and covers the exposed surface of the eye. The infection results from disease-causing micro organisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Eye inflammation also may be caused by allergies, chemicals, dust, smoke and foreign objects that become lodged in the eye. Conventional treatment varies according to cause and symptoms. Doctors may prescribe antibiotics, steroids, or soothing eye drops. Interestingly TEA is a common eye remedy. Its easy with green or black tea, prepare tea according to directions and place the tea bag on closed eye for 15 minutes duly taking care that the temperature is not high or too low.

A rose is a rose a…..cure for infected eyes, as it is said in spanish, and arabic speaking communities. Please pick up roses that are free from pesticides and other chemicals, place a handful of petals in a jar and add one pint of boiling water, cover well to retain the aromatic oils and let stand until the water has cooled to room temperature, strain then soak a clean cloth with the liquid and place on the closed eye. Another interesting item, application of an Incan poultice. The Incas cultivated potatoes as a food and medicine and one medical use included eye conditions. The skin from a whole raw potato is to be removed and grate finely, to place the grated potato in a clean cloth and fold to make a poultice, application of the poultice to the eye for just 15 minutes. Further, Europeans have long used the lowly weed eye bright(EUPHRASIA OFFICINALIS) to treat conjunctivitis and other eye infections.
EYEBRIGHT’s flowers look like little yellow eyes and apparently resemblance sparked some ingenious individual to try it as an eye remedy. European colonists brought the remedy with them to the New World. The same can be found to day in parts of Appalachia. The treatment is placing one table spoon of eyebright leaves in one pint of hot water, cover and steep for ten minutes, strain and apply the liquid with a clean cloth while slipping a cup of tea and it is to be done twice a day.

Many Asian-Americans know that chrysanthemum blossoms(chrysanthemum indicum flos) make a great remedy for tired aching eyes. The Chinese and Japanese place a large handful of flowers in a pot and add one quart of boiling water, this is covered and steeped for ten minutes and then strained, the wet flowers are wrapped in a clean cloth, then the poultice is placed on the eye while the patient sips the tea. Aromatherapists recommend a CHAMOMILE cure for tired eyes. Steep two chamomile (Matricarria recutita) tea bags in a few table spoons of hot water, allow the bags to cool some what, then lie down and place a tea bag over each eye, cover the poultices with a soft cloth. In Tibet, a tea made of fennel(Foeniculum Vulgare) is used to soothe tired, irritated eyes.

I shall bring –WARDING OFF THE EVIL EYE—in my next issue. THE POWER OF FAITH is to be understood now. The FAITH is not just in a particular religion or part of the world. Faith is a integral part of any LIVING BEING. Even birds, animals develop faith to come closer; we have a faith on a particular doctor as such we go to him; we have a faith that a particular teacher or school teaches well as such we send our children to them, to say, faith is an inbuilt power that overpowers us beyond any reason and that component of faith is not CERTAINLY A DAY MATTER. It is coupled with the results. A survey published in 1986 revealed that one of every seven people polled believed that at some point HE or SHE had been healed by GOD. Such miraculous cures were for all types of illnesses-everything from viral conditions to debilitating back pain and cancer.
No one can say how prayer heals. But that does not stop people from praying. A 1991 study found that 96 percent of patients facing heart surgery said that they prayed to be healed: 73 percent of hospitalized patients said the same thing in a study two years later. Religion seeks to bring humans closer to the mysteries of the universe. In 1982 researchers found that Mormon men who considered themselves very religious were less likely to get cancer than their less-religious peers. Wonder is that when they get cancer, those in the religious group recovered faster. A reference to the AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PSYCHIATRY published in 1990 edition reports that religious people recovered faster from illnesses and were less depressed than respondents who did not rate religion highly in their lives.
I AM NOT PREACHING BLIND BELIEF AND NOT IN THE INTEREST OF ATTACHING TO A PARTICULAR RELIGION IN THIS PROCESS. I am bringing this before you what the other world speaks so that we can judge for ourselves what to do and what not.

I SHALL BE BACK AGAIN SOON………………… HARA HARA MAHADEVA
