I've had a ritam experience, one time, plus some kundalini awakening later on after that particular treatment. Also, I'm the last person to notice that I'm transcending during the treatments. I usually have to infer this from the fact that my experience of myself is so naturally transparent that I don't realize that this transparency is truly my Self. These gemlight treatments are very empowering to the mind, so that care and consideration given to one's thoughts, speech, and action is a very good idea since they can materialize. > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, bob_brigante wrote: > > > > > > On tonight's (MON Feb 2nd) Global Family Chat on the Maharishi > > > Channel, they talked about the new light/gem therapy in Maharishi > > > Ayurveda (the first line of Rig Veda says that agni/fire is the > > > source of gems, > > Well, the compound word is > > ratnadhaatama: (ratna-dhaa + superlative suffix -tama?) > > ratnadhA [ = ratnadhaa] mfn. procuring wealth , distributing riches or precious things (%{-tama} mfn. distñdistributing great riches) RV.
