Philosophical Implications

The philosophical implications of quantum theory that involve reality creation are becoming more popular in the collective consciousness. The collapse of the wave function alludes to the creation of reality by mind; the non-local interconnection of quantum linked particles hints at a basic oneness of all things; the multi-dimensions needed for quantum theory hint that there is much more than just this three dimensional world we experience; and the uncertainty principle helps us understand that nothing is deterministic.

Wave function collapse refers to the process where quantum probabilities represented as an energetic wave function are collapsed by the consciousness of an observer. This happens on an individual level and also on a collective level through the collective consciousness of humanity. It happens on a very small scale involving single electrons and on very large scales involving the planetary body. It also happens on small time scales of fractions of seconds to large time scales of many centuries. When dealing with macroscopic human planetary reality creation we first decide whether we want to create heaven or hell on earth. If we choose to create heaven on earth the most important components are raising the collective consciousness of humanity, improving the quality of thought and emotion and increasing individuals freedom of will. Each human being is an equal holographic fragment of the larger wave function probability. Unfortunately our present powers that be seem more inclined to restrict a persons freedom of will and thus control thought and emotion in a negative direction of reality creation.
What we normally call as divine intervention. Does this really exist? I think very fact that mind wants to seek help and the solution is within the very process of thinking. This astute guidance is sharpened if you recite and imbibe the power of Vedic Chanting.

Creation the Vedic view

Kṛṣṇa is the Source of All Incarnations
(1) "In the beginning the Supreme Lord
assumed, for the creation of the worlds, the form
of the Original Person[: the integrity of the material
realm] composed of the sixteen elements [of
the ten knowing and working senses, the mind and
the five elements] and the cosmic intelligence and
such. (2) Resting in His meditative slumber in that
water, out of the lotus that spread from the lake of
His navel, Brahmā was manifested, the master of
the progenitors in the universe. (3) One believes
the different worlds [as expansions] to be part of
the form of the Fortunate One that constitutes the
excellence of the purest existence. (4) His form
thus seen perfectly has numerous legs, thighs,
arms and faces, with wonderful heads, ears, eyes
and noses, all glowing with garlands and dresses.
(5) This source of the multifarious incarnations is
the imperishable seed from which the plenary portions
and portions thereof, the gods, the human
beings and the animals, originate.

The above text is taken from Shrimad Bhagavatam. In my opinion,it describes the creation theory as subjective matter. What extra knowledge we learn from Atharva Shirsha? Then it requires to go into the objective methodology which is the main expansive extension of knowledge in Vedas.Ganesha is the source of innovation objectively and therefore assumes the wisdom of creation. The iconic visualization is more apt in these circumstances.

Visualization Of Atharva Sheersha

One need to take contextual meaning of the previous two of my blogs.What do they suggest and inspire us to think? All the the slokas in Vedas and Upanishads are highly coded. It is natural that if it is attempted to decode enormous amount of criticism is heaped and difficult to overcome.The vast repository of knowledge makes it more complicated. Some kind of conceptualization is required which may be out of context.Nevertheless,we must give scope for this visualization.
First of all, Ganesha is described to have four arms,twisted tusk, rotund-um of belly,sitting on a tiny mouse with fan like earlobes protruding.If we put all of them in a line and strap with a serpent we get a figurine three dimensionally oriented. But four arms and earlobes suggest that it is indeed placed in tetrahedral configuration to give it utmost stability.Three sides are visible and one side is in rear whichever way you look at it.Reference to Muladhara of Kundalini Mudra is available.If a vector is introduced through the center of this figurine,it assumes free rotational movement around its axis. From this enormous formulations and mathematical derivations are possible and exact calculation of places of zero, pi and concept of infinity are some of the possibilities.

Atharva Rishi then gives us the sacred
Ganesh Vidya. The Letter “GA” is to be enunciated, followed by “NA”. This one word Mantra is then given power by saying “OM”. Knowledge in those days was transmitted orally, so to make it simpler, Atharva Rishi presents a simpler form : “GA” is the first part, “Na” is the middle one and “UM” with a ‘bindu’ is at the end. It is said that this Mantra if pronounced properly,
has the power of revealing Lord Ganesh. The sage who receives the Mantra is Ganaka & the Master is “NICHRUD GAYATRI”. The deity is Ganapati. Om ‘GANG’ Ganapati. ” My salutation to you.”

Pray to the single Tusked Lord,
with a bent Trunk
May He grant knowledge to us || 8 ||

The Lord with 1 tusk and 4 hands ;
Upper right hand carrying a binding rope;
Upper left hand holding goad;
Lower left one carrying a broken tusk
The lower right one to bless us,
The mouse on his banner is also his vehicle.
He is blood red in colour; Pot-Bellied;
He has elephant ears & wears red robes
He is smeared with red sandalwood
And is decorated with red flowers
He is eternally blessing his devotees
And has been existing before the Cosmos
He is beyond “PRAKRITI” & “PURUSHA”
One who prays to him, is a Supreme Yogi

Salutations to you Lord of all Deities, Ganas & all beings, the Pot-Bellied one with one tusk who destroys all obstacles, son of Shiva, the divine Lord who grants boons, we bow to you, taking your name ||10||

Ganapati Atharva Sheersha

This verse is a restatement of some of the titles of Ganesha:

Ekadanta - One-tusked one
Lambodara - Big-bellied
Varadaya - Bestower of Boons
Sarvatanaya - Son of Siva
Vighnavina - Destroyer of Obstacles
16. He who studies this Atharva Shira moves towards Brahma. He is always blissful. He is not bound by any obstacles. He is liberated from the five greater and the five lesser sins. Evening meditation destroys the unmeritorious actions of the night. At both evening and morning he is liberated from the bad and he attains Dharma-Artha-Kama and Moksha.
According to John Grimes, the phrase "Atharva Shira" suggests "firmness or singlepointedness of the intellect as directed towards one's realization of the Divine."
(Grimes, p22). Thus, we are told that study of this text leads one to realization of the Divine.
Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha are the four legitimate life-goals: Dharma can be translated as 'righteousness' or 'duty'; Artha as prosperity; Kama, as sensual pleasure, and Moksha, as liberation.

17. This Atharva Shira should not be given to those not pupils. If from delusion a person so gives, he is a bad person.

18. He who wants something may accomplish it by 1000 recitations of this. He who sprinkles Ganapati with this becomes eloquent. He who recites this on the 4th day becomes a knower of Vidya. This an Atharva saying "He who moves towards Brahma is never afraid." He who worships with fried grains becomes famous and becomes intelligent. He who worships with sweet-meat (modaka) gains the desired fruit. he who worships with samit and ghee by him all is attained, all is gained by him. He who makes eight Brahmanas understand this becomes like the sun's rays. In a solar eclipse, in a great river, or in front of an image having recited (this) he gets accomplished in the mantra. He becomes liberated from great obstacles. He is freed from great misfortunes.

Place of Zero and Pi

The place-value system, first seen in the 3rd century Bakhshali Manuscript, was clearly in place in his work. While he did not use a symbol for zero, the French mathematician Georges Ifrah argues that knowledge of zero was implicit in Aryabhata's place-value system as a place holder for the powers of ten with null coefficients.
However, Aryabhata did not use the Brahmi numerals. Continuing the Sanskritic tradition from Vedic times, he used letters of the alphabet to denote numbers, expressing quantities, such as the table of sines in a mnemonic form.
Approximation of π :
Aryabhata worked on the approximation for pi (π), and may have come to the conclusion that π is irrational. In the second part of the Aryabhatiyam (gaṇitapāda 10), he writes:
caturadhikam śatamaṣṭaguṇam dvāṣaṣṭistathā sahasrāṇām
ayutadvayaviṣkambhasyāsanno vṛttapariṇāhaḥ.
"Add four to 100, multiply by eight, and then add 62,000. By this rule the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 20,000 can be approached.
This implies that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is ((4 + 100) × 8 + 62000)/20000 = 62832/20000 = 3.1416, which is accurate to five significant figures.
It is speculated that Aryabhata used the word āsanna (approaching), to mean that not only is this an approximation but that the value is incommensurable (or irrational). If this is correct, it is quite a sophisticated insight, because the irrationality of pi was proved in Europe only in 1761 by Lambert.
After Aryabhatiya was translated into Arabic (c. 820 CE) this approximation was mentioned in Al-Khwarizmi's book on algebra.
There, under the Gupta emperors, 1,000 years before Galileo and Kepler and Newton, Indian thinkers developed a revolutionary idea without which modern science could not exist: the concept of mathematical zero, along with the related system of numerals that is called Arabic but was, in fact, invented here. By the fifth century, an Indian had discovered the earth's axial rotation. Well before the Renaissance re-illuminated Europe, Indian mathematicians had explored the upland realms of quadratic equations and cube roots, had become the first to assign 3.1416 as the value of pi, and had mastered the concept of infinity. Throughout most of history, in fact, Indian science and Indian culture generally matched and at times exceeded anything anywhere else in the world.
The above material is collected from various sources.However the conceptualization comes possibly from various slokas of Ganapati atharva sheersha which will be discussed later in my blog.

Quantum Number in Anuvaka 1

It is known to us that there is adequate information available on the structure of atom in all the details: I am not adding anything new. I only wish to expand our visualization of the structure of the atom in context of what is available in Rudra prasna from Rigveda in its Anuvaka 1.We know a)Energy levels in electrons in an atom are quantized b)we can not know energy and position of electron at the same time c)particles are in energy level and have wave like properties.d)specifically four quantum numbers are assigned to each electron.
What is in Anuvaka 1? The energy level is indicated by Shiva holding a bow and often the quiver referred to wave like mechanism. At the end of the Anuvaka 1.
Bhagavan-Possibility
Vishvesvar-Encompassing universe often in diffused spherical shape
Tryambaka Tripurantaka Trikagnikalaya describing spatial disposition in three axis as is in the case of orbitals.
Kalagni Rudraya repeating energy level in respect of time.
Neelkanthaya Mrutunjaya energy levels over coming charged attraction and repulsion as the particles are charged.
Sarveshvaraya Phenomena is all pervasive
Sadashiva All the time.

This is what we know it in atomic structure as 1S,2S spherical orbitals 2P in three planes with their axis and 3S again spherical and repeated at all the time.
This appears to a highly coded version in the Rudra prasna and extraordinary skill of conceptualization of structure of an atom.
