Harita Samhita

Harita Samhita

Harita Samhita is one of the structuring dynamics of Rk Veda. It highlights the NOURISHING quality involved in structuring Rk Veda. With reference to consciousness, Harita Samhita comprises the specific sets of laws of Nature that are engaged in promoting the quality of Chhandas — the object of observation, which hides the dynamism of Devata in the witnessing quality of Rishi — within the Samhita level of consciousness, providing a structure to the eternally silent, self-referral, self-sufficient, fully awake state of consciousness, which is intimately personal to everyone.

In the physiology, [Harita Samhita] corresponds to the biliary system, which participates in the digestive system. The term 'Harita' points to the biliary system and its influence as a nourishing, sustaining value in the physiology.

The 7 divisions and 103 chapters of Harita Samhita correspond to the structure and organization of the venous and biliary system.

on the importance of
regular practice of the
Transcendental Meditation technique:

Scientists have found that those who practice Transcendental Meditation, and more so those who practice the TM-Sidhi Programme, have access to the 'brain reserve'; that means that they have access to the total potential of Creative Intelligence, the holistic value of the brain functioning which supports the partial values of activity of the specific parts of the brain during the process of seeing, touching, smelling, tasting, hearing, and their corresponding actions.
