Nice post, Steve. Just curious, why is "AH" "G" and "NE" in "Agni" profound for you? "In Maharishi's Vedic Science, the Constitution of the Universe is embodied in the very structure of the sounds of the Rik Ved, the most fundamental aspect of the Vedic literature. According to Maharishi's Apaurushey Bhashya, the structure of the Ved provides its own commentary, a commentary which is contained in the sequential unfoldment of the Ved itself in its various stages of expression. The knowledge of the total Ved is contained in the first sukt of the Rik Ved."
