STRAY PLANETS

Image
     (Hubble Space Telescope Image) (Continued from yesterday) Astronomers  at the University of Leiden in the Netherlands announced early this year about their new study suggesting there are some 50 billion free floating planets in our Milky Way galaxy. It is calculated that about quarter of Milky Way stars have lost one or more planets. These planets are free floating in our galaxy. A few decades ago no one thought about these rogue bodies. Now millions of galaxies put together the numbers of these are mind blowing. Collisions among planets and their host star are common. This happens in more than three per cent of planetary systems. Scientists think that our own solar system might have lost one or two planets, probably less massive than Neptune, earlier in its youth. The ejection of planets from their home planetary systems might be more common in denser star clusters ( The Trapezium star cluster is considered a 'looser' cluster), since more frequent e...

STRAY PLANETS

     There are planets that do not rotate around any star as our earth rotates around sun. Instead of revolving around any mother star they move around the space alone. Scientists have so far discovered about 10 such planets. Astronomers in Hawaii have recently located a free floating celestial body which is about 100 light years from earth and the closest to us so far identified. Scientists could present probable cause for the formation of the stray planets. If there are several massive planets in a star system, their gravitational fields come into conflict, and a large one may repel a smaller one from the star system. In our solar system Jupiter and Saturn are the largest planets and in comparison others are much smaller in size. Therefore, their gravitational fields do no come into conflicts. If there are two or more planets like the Jupiter one of them should have been repelled. The recently discovered object looks like a blue point which indicate that th...

NOTHING IS OURS IN THIS WORLD

Image
It  is the most precious thing for us now. It is our own! All that we have is because of it. Without this we are none. We have not bought it, but came to us. We cannot turn down it or wait for it. Such great thing of ours now belonged to our near and dear little while ago. Little more time behind it belonged to our neighbours, our friends and our enemies. Some more time ago it belonged to unknown people, well known people, scholars, writers, teachers, priests or thieves. Years ago it belonged to kings, people we worship, people who harmed us a lot, people who made history, it belonged to wild animals and birds, our pets and the list goes on and on. What is it? It is nothing but the air we have breathed in a little while ago. It is in us. We are alive because of it. We cannot be alive without this. We believe that it belong to us,  yes, only for a little while. Everyone had it earlier thought it was theirs. In fact it belonged to none. Our beautiful and healthy body...

CLAIRVOYANCE

Image
Clairvoyance  is the power or ability of seeing something beyond the natural vision or gathering something to the mind other than through normal senses. Clairvoyance is a French word having the meaning "clear seeing". A clairvoyant is believed to be using his Spiritual Eye rather than the normal eye. This spiritual eye is the 6th chakra  or 3rd eye which is considered as an energy center in the mid brain. Clairvoyance is the spiritual ability of the 6th chakra.  A clairvoyant is a normal person. Anyone with proper training and regular practice can become a clairvoyant. Psychic experiences are quite broad. Psychic experience includes everything from clairvoyance (clear seeing) to telepathy (hearing communication without someone speaking out loud) to channeling (bringing a spirit into your body) to clairsentience (feeling what someone else feels) and such other states. Psychic training gives us tools and resources to listen to the needs of our soul and feed our ...

REBIRTH - A MYTH OR REALITY

Image
(Continued from yesterday) The belief of rebirth is not confined to any region or any country. People from different parts of the world hold this belief. It is filtered through generations. When people die their bodies get decomposed but their souls take birth in other bodies.  This is the fundamental concept of reincarnation. It is said that human subconscious always keep some faint memories of previous life. It is believed that only some people get this memory of the past life. In India we have a religious back up for reincarnation. In Jainism, the soul and matter are considered eternal, uncreated and perpetual. There is a constant interplay between these, resulting in bewildering cosmic manifestations in material, psychic and emotional spheres around us. This led to the theories of transmigration and rebirth. The life after death therefore moves on to another form of life based on the merits and demerits it accumulated in its current life. The path to becoming a supr...

REBIRTH - A MYTH OR REALITY

Image
(Continued from yesterday) Dr Maurice  in his book narrated a near death experience of a youth who had met with a road accident and brought to his hospital. After examination the doctor had declared him dead. The youth remained 'dead' for a few hours and during this time, on information, few of his relatives came to collect his 'body'. After seeing the 'body' they went out to arrange an ambulance to take away the body. In the meantime the hospital staff found some movement of the body of the youth lying still on the table. Immediately the youth was shifted to the emergency room and later became normal. When he became normal he told about the relatives including the colour of their dresses who had visited him when in coma. According to studies conducted by Dr Satwant Pasricha in Northern India 1 in every 450 people experienced the past life memory; of the 19 cases found, past incarnation was identified in 16 cases. As per a report published by Madhusr...

REBIRTH - A MYTH OR REALITY

Image
There  are thousands of stories about rebirth from around the world. Many people from different countries have studied the subject and told the world what they had encountered. There are countless number of books dealing with the subject. Past and post life of many well known personalities were presented by some researchers of reincarnation. However for unknown reasons modern science is reluctant to conduct studies about this subject. Instead of saying either an 'yes' or 'no' the science prefer to remain silent. It may look easier to say a 'no', but it is equally important that to say a 'no' too should have the same knowledge that of saying an 'yes'. There are many reliable cases of people undergone clinical death and returned to life after a good interval. Many such people undergone the mystical experience revealed that they had passed through a long tunnel, seen some light, met with some known people etc. Maurice S. Rawlings, Americ...
