    Important Information :
    A 21 year old guy had worn a pair of contactlenses during a barbecue party.(An event or meal at which food is cooked outdoors over an open grill or fire) While barbecuing he stared at the fire charcoals continuously for 2-3 minutes. After a few minutes, he started to scream for help and moved rapidly, jumping up and down. No one in theparty knew why he was doing this?
    Then he admitted into the Hospital, the doctor said he'll be blind permanently because of the contact lenses that he had worn. Contact lenses are made by plastics, and the heat from the charcoal melted his contact lenses.
    DO NOT WEAR CONTACT LENSES WHERE OVERHEATING AND FLAMES ARE CONCERNED....OR WHILE COOKING...

    Sunlight-powered 'bulbs' made from plastic bottles light up homes!!
    The Liter of Light project, launched to combat the rising cost of electricity in the Philippines, aims to provide 1 million homes with light.
    Around 25,000 low-income homes in the Philippines have been lit up after the launch of a scheme to fit sunlight-powered "bulbs" made from old plastic bottles.
    In a country where 40% of the population lives off less than $2 a day, the rising cost of power leaves many unable to afford electricity. Some use candles as a light source, but when generations of family members share a small, dark space in shanty towns, accidental and destructive fires are often the result.
    The Liter of Light project was launched six months ago by the My Shelter Foundation, a Philippines-based NGO which aims to provide light to 1 million ofthe roughly 12 million homes who are either still without light or live on the threshold of having their electricity shut down.
    The scheme uses plastic bottles filled with a solution of bleached water, installed into holes made in shanty towns' corrugated iron roofs, which then refracts the equivalent of 55W of sunlight into the room – during the day, at least. It takes five minutes to make, and using a hammer, rivet, metal sheets, sandpaper and epoxy, it costs $1 to produce.
    The programme is also creating jobs. What began with teaching and contracting one unemployed man to make the first 1000 bottles has evolved into an ongoing program that has creating more than 20 jobs in installing the bottles.

    If you burned your hand in the fire, oil or hot water . .


    Put your hands in the white flour for a while until the pain goes away, you will not see any trace of burns.

    . I heard similar stories like this before. Contact lenses are not good for lazy people. Once you are into contact lenses you got to be always careful. I would say better stick to glasses (naa atha thaan follow pannuraen ).

    Some facts about our Brain:
    (~ credits: Check your own I.Q )

    ->Although brain uses 20% of oxygen,that we breath, yet brain can live for 4 to 6 minutes without oxygen,and then it begins to die.
    No oxygen for 5 to 10 minutes will result in permanent brain damage
    .
    ->The Brain has a joke centre. Sometimes, patients with damaged frontal lobes are unable to get the humor.
    ->The brain uses less power than refrigator light-12 watts of power-17% of the bodys energy.
    ->Brain surgery can be conducted while a patient is awake.
    ->Brain knows everything, but can't feel a thing. It has no pain receptors..
    ->Its impossible to tickle yourself- the brain dulls expected sensations, when we cause them ourselves.
    ->A new born babys brain grows about three times its size in the first year.

    -- Save Trees --


    * Trees receive an estimated 90% of their nutrition from the atmosphere and only 10% from the soil..

    * Trees renew our air supply by absorbing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen..

    * Trees lower air temperature by evaporating water in their leaves..

    * A tree does not reach its most productive stage of carbon storage for about 10 years..

    *One of the tallest soft wood trees is the General Sherman, a giant redwood sequoia of California. General Sherman is about 275 ft or 84 m high with a girth of 25 ft or 8 m..

    * Dendrochronology is the science of calculating a tree’s age by its rings..

    * A mature birch tree can produce up to 1 million seeds per year.
    Trees receive an estimated 90% of their nutrition from the atmosphere and only 10% from the soil..

    * Trees grow from the top, not from the bottom as is commonly believed. A branch’s location on a tree will only move up the trunk a few inches in 1000 years..



    * The largest area of forest in the tropics remains the Amazon Basin, amounting to 81.5 million acres..

    * Tree leaves help trap and remove tiny particles of soot and dust which otherwise damages human lungs..

    * By creating shade, trees moderate temperatures both globally and in the micro-climates of cities and counties..

    * Trees create buffers to reduce noise..

    * The presence of trees in urban neighborhoods has been linked to less crime..

    * Tree roots stabilize soil and prevent erosion..

    * The cottonwood tree seed is the seed that stays in flight the longest. The tiny seed is surrounded by ultra-light, white fluff hairs that can carry it on the air for several days..

    * Tree rings provide precise information about environmental events, including volcanic eruptions..

    * One acre of trees removes up to 2.6 tons of carbon dioxide each year..

    * Trees improve water quality by slowing and filtering rain water, as well as protecting aquifers and watersheds..

    ~DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH~~

    It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Further more, scientific tests have proven its value.We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as
    modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases: Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases,vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes,
    constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.

    METHOD OF TREATMENT

    1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water

    2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minute

    3.. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.

    4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours

    5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may
    commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.

    6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.

    The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/reduce main diseases:


    1. High Blood Pressure (30 days)

    2. Gastric (10 days)

    3. Diabetes (30 days)

    4. Constipation (10 days)

    5. Cancer (180 days)

    6. TB (90 days)



    7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and
    from 2nd week onwards – daily..

    This treatment method has no side effects,however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times.
    It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life. Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active. This makes sense .. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals not cold water. May be it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain... For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down
    the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break
    down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine.Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal. A serious note about heart attacks:

    ·Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting,

    · Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.

    · You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.

    · Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.

    · 60% of people who have a heart attack while
    they are asleep do not wake up.

    · Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep.


    Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know,the better chance we could survive... A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to everyone they know, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.
    Please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about.

    WHY TO VISIT TEMPLES ? (Scientific Reason)


    A must read !!!!



    There are thousands of temples all over India in different size, shape and locations but not all of them are considered to be built the Vedic way. Generally, a temple should be located at a place where earth's magnetic wave path passes through densely. It can be in the outskirts of a town/village or city, or in middle of the dwelling place, or on a hilltop. The essence of visiting a temple is discussed here.

    Now, these temples are located strategically at a place where the positive energy is abundantly available from the magnetic and electric wave distributions of north/south pole thrust. The main idol is placed in the core center of the temple, known as "*Garbhagriha*" or *Moolasthanam*. In fact, the temple structure is built after the idol has been placed. This *Moolasthanam* is where earth’s magnetic waves are found to be maximum. We know that there are some copper plates, inscribed with Vedic scripts, buried beneath the Main Idol. What are they really? No, they are not God’s / priests’ flash cards when they forget the *shlokas*. The copper plate absorbs earth’s magnetic waves and radiates it to the surroundings. Thus a person regularly visiting a temple and walking clockwise around the Main Idol receives the beamed magnetic waves and his body absorbs it. This is a very slow process and a regular visit will let him absorb more of this positive energy. Scientifically, it is the positive energy that we all require to have a healthy life.



    Further, the Sanctum is closed on three sides. This increases the effect of all energies. The lamp that is lit radiates heat energy and also provides light inside the sanctum to the priests or *poojaris* performing the pooja. The ringing of the bells and the chanting of prayers takes a worshipper into trance, thus not letting his mind waver. When done in groups, this helps people forget personal problems for a while and relieve their stress. The fragrance from the flowers, the burning of camphor give out the chemical energy further aiding in a different good aura. The effect of all these energies is supplemented by the positive energy from the idol, the copper plates and utensils in the *Moolasthan*am / *Garbagraham*. *Theertham*, the “holy” water used during the pooja to wash the idol is not
    plain water cleaning the dust off an idol. It is a concoction of Cardamom,*Karpura* (Benzoin), zaffron / saffron, *Tulsi* (Holy Basil), Clove, etc...Washing the idol is to charge the water with the magnetic radiations thus increasing its medicinal values. Three spoons of this holy water is distributed to devotees. Again, this water is mainly a source of magneto-therapy. Besides, the clove essence protects one from tooth decay, the saffron & *Tulsi* leaves protects one from common cold and cough, cardamom and *Pachha Karpuram* (benzoin), act as mouth fresheners. It is proved that *Theertham* is a very good blood purifier, as it is highly energized. Hence it is given as *prasadam* to the devotees. This way, one can claim to remain healthy by regularly visiting the Temples. This is why our elders used to suggest us to offer prayers at the temple so that you will be cured of many ailments. They were not always superstitious. Yes, in a few cases they did go overboard when due to ignorance they hoped many serious diseases could be cured at temples by deities. When people go to a temple for the *Deepaaraadhana*, and when the doors open up, the positive energy gushes out onto the persons who are there. The water that is sprinkled onto the assemblages passes on the energy to all. This also explains why men are not allowed to wear shirts at a few temples and women are requested to wear more ornaments during temple visits. It is through these jewels (metal) that positive energy is absorbed by the women. Also, it is a practice to leave newly purchased jewels at an idol’s feet and then wear them with the idol’s blessings. This act is now justified after reading this article. This act of “seeking divine blessings” before using any new article, like books or pens or automobiles may have stemmed from this through mere observation.

    Energy lost in a day’s work is regained through a temple visit and one is refreshed slightly. The positive energy that is spread out in the entire temple and especially around where the main idol is placed, are simply absorbed by one's body and mind. Did you know, every Vaishnava(Vishnu devotees), “must” visit a Vishnu temple twice every day in their location. Our practices are NOT some hard and fast rules framed by 1 man and his followers or God’s words in somebody’s dreams. All the rituals, all the practices are, in reality, well researched, studied and scientifically backed thesis which form the ways of nature to lead a good healthy life.

    The scientific and research part of the practices are well camouflaged as “elder’s instructions” or “granny’s teaching’s” which should be obeyed as a mark of respect so as to once again, avoid stress to the mediocre brains
