each of the 700 verses of the Gita is capable of delivering, of winning, of giving the direct and full answer.just as a smartphone has tons of apps, all different, all unique yet wholly complete by themselves.just as a wardrobe has so many clothes and shoes, all different, yet each befitting.just as you have facebook friends and contacts. each unique yet capable.just as Guruji answers someone's query in Satsang. It is a specific question. It is a specific answer. Yet it weaves its magic on all. Satisfies many. each of Sri Sri's answers as if meant for one enlightens all.So it is with the Gita. the verses are weaved together by a magician. they are placed by a divine hand.The verses are interspersed and knitted and dyed and woven. Are made up of cottons and silks, nylons and polyester, wool and acrylic, and every yarn under the sun.the weaving is so deft, smooth, and soft, so cozy, nice and comfortable.that one may miss the hues shades nuances emotions events and truths.But one cannot miss the impact!

He addresses every single man woman and child. He addresses every single plant herb and tree. Every piece of matter animate or inanimate.

About how to meet deadlines and targets. It applies not only to mankind. It also applies to machines and electronics. It applies also to the Natural Laws and to the life-forms we know and do not know. It is a complete textbook. A finely detailed user manual to strengthen one's MIND. Nourish the SOUL. And of course Flex the BODY.

Marma is based on the model of a lighted being or the consciousness that fills all human beings and flows and radiates through our thoughts and emotions, nerves and tissues.Due to 5 factors, viz. 1.lifestyle, 2.upbringing, 3.perceived notions, 4.relationships, and 5. personal set of values, these light beams get scattered away from their normal flow. Some beams lose their amplitude, others lose their direction. Yet others lose their intensity or focus. This is what results in illness, pain, grief, guilt, fear and weakness.Marma Chikitsa or Therapy is a revolutionary technique to normalize and balance the light body. Though mentioned in the ancient texts, in the modern context it is only recently being rediscovered and reapplied. When it came to healing and restoring fitness, the ancients rarely looked at anatomy as a mass of muscle, tissue, bone or organ. Rather, they perceived it as a body of glowing consciousness, and used the time honored techniques of Meditation, Massage, Showering, Walking, soft Touch, Pranayama and Yoga.¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿ Thigh and lower anatomy marma points list.¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿-¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿1-¿¿¿¿¿¿2-¿¿¿¿¿3-¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿4-¿¿¿¿¿5-¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿6-¿¿¿¿7-¿¿¿8-¿¿¿¿¿9-¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿10 ¿¿¿¿¿11 ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ 11 vi¿apa (topmost point in this list)¿ 10 lohit¿k¿a¿ 9 ¿rv¿ (also spelt urv¿)¿ 8 ¿¿i¿ 7 j¿nu¿ 6 indrabasti¿ 5 gulpha¿ 4 k¿rcäira¿ 3 k¿rca¿ 2 talah¿daya¿ 1 k¿ipra (bottommost point in this list)These points are listed in sequence of vertical location top to bottom of anatomy.¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ | These are mirrored points in each leg, so a count of 22 points.Note: Marma points Vi¿apa, J¿nu and Gulpha in leg correspond to Kak¿adhara, K¿rpara and Mäibandha in arm resp.-------------------This book presents the Marma section from the Sushruta Samhita, and lists simple ways to get back to peak health and total fitness. -------------------Contains Full Color Plates.Contains Charts for all 107 Marma Points.

The Sri Yantra Bhavana Upanishad is attributed to the Atharvaveda. It is a later Upanishad that illuminates the Bhavana or Deeper Emotions connected to the Sri Yantra, the body of the Mother Divine, and also the body of Divine Yogic Union of Purusha and Prakriti. It expounds the innermost intense feelings of the Soul, its basic desire, and ways and means to connect and unite with the ultimate consciousness. What is a Sri Yantra? A healing mandala diagram made by 4 Upward Apex Triangles and 5 Downward Apex Triangles, properly intertwined to represent - the cosmic forces in creation, and >The 9 Basic Triangles create a total of 43 Triangles due to the overlapping, which are grouped (shaded) as >Apart from these Triangles, - there is a central Dot (Bindu)- there are three Circles encircling the Triangles>Sanskrit Seed Sounds (bija mantra) like ॐ Om, are potent healing and nourishing energies. Sound is an energy. Pleasing sounds (meditative music, blessings) have excellent effects on one's behavior, attitude, and long-term all round success in life. An aesthetically made Mandala can become vastly superior when infused with Seed Sounds.----------Contains Black and white Plates
