The Vibrations of Our Universe

The Vibrations of our Universe:

(Published P.G.A. 2002)

Controversial topics amongst leading astrologers have existed for decades and there's none more hotly debated than the use of gems as remedial measures.

As already stated, many learned astrologers believe either that remedial gems are an attempt to "buy off" our karma and are therefore against "the will of God" or that no remedial measure is able to strengthen an afflicted or weak planet. Both arguments are based on ignorance of natural law.

Before we can understand the influence of planetary gems and other upayes we first have to understand the nature of our universe. Sages teach us that the vibration (primordial sound) of the universe is in constant flux...the beautiful celestial song of the universe is unique to each living being.

Bija (meditation) mantras correspond to the specific sound or vibration of the Universe at the time (and place) of our birth and it's taught that meditating with the primordial mantra corresponding to Moon's nakshatra lord guides us effortlessly back to our own essential nature. Seeing the essential nature of the Universe as pulsating sound or vibration we can more readily understand the relationship between precious gems and their ruling planets. The vibration of Ruby is non-different to that of Sun. Pearl to Moon, Red Coral to Mars, Emerald to Mercury, Yellow Sapphire to Jupiter, Diamond to Venus, Blue Sapphire to Saturn etc..

Our own unique expression of the universe is present in every living cell, every strand of DNA - our genetic (cosmic) blueprint; and today modern science is proving that this genetic blueprint can indeed be manipulated. Gene therapy is the latest medical approach to treat, cure, and ultimately prevent disease by changing the expression of a person's genes. To the best of my understanding a new gene is inserted into the body via vehicles called vectors (gene carriers), which deliver therapeutic genes to the person's cells. Knowing that this is being done today to treat disease it seems ridiculous to still believe that remedial measures cannot, in the same way, lessen the impact of planetary afflictions. It stands to reason that, if a particular vibration within our DNA is "out of tune" (afflicted or weak), then wearing the corresponding gem of perfect quality and therefore perfect vibration will improve that vibrational quality within us?

In this same way mantras specific to the planets help to lessen the effects of our karma - its the vibration of the sound that has the effect - moreso than the meaning of the mantra. Gems of course are not available for everyone and by the grace of God we have been given the mantras corresponding to each planet. If recited in the prescribed manner they are as effective as gems. The difference between the two remedies is that one requires money while the other requires effort and dedication to complete the required number of repetitions.

Sages declare; "The Sun moves in me, the Stars move in me, the Moon rises in me, the whole Universe is in me. Those who know this great truth cry in ecstasy, *AHAM VISHWAM*, I am the universe, I am the existence."
