INVISIBLE SPECTRUM OF THE SCIENCE AND THE ANCIENT VEDAM
1 A fine way of thinking. Invisibility is not visible to the perception
of an individual, but DOES EXIST. VIBGYOR is where the V and R are
invisible. Spectrum is the reflection of light through a medium. How does
one spot a rainbow under the right conditions? Facing the rain, imagine a
line from the sun, through your head, and to the far end of your shadow.
The higher the sun, the steeper this line is and the shorter your shadow.
At about 42 degrees away from that line – straight up, to the right or left
– one can see the red band. At about 40 degrees away from it – up, right or
left – one can see the violet band. Since the 40-degree band is closer to
the imaginary line than the 42-degree band, the violet band is on the
inside of the red band, with the other colors in between. Just 42
degrees. science found it but Considering that rainbows are visible only
when certain conditions are met, one may reasonably ask, "Who set the
conditions?"
In 1666 Newton demonstrated that normal white light is composed of all the
colors. By refracting (bending) light through a glass prism, he separated
it into its component colors. Then, by sending the refracted light back
through another prism, he combined the components back into white light,
proving that the prism itself wasn’t creating the colors. He also figured
out that many materials refract light, including water. Raindrops
refracting and reflecting light are the key to producing a rainbow, which,
he concluded, is a successful collaboration between the sun, zillions of
tiny raindrops (sometimes less than one millimeter across), and our eyes,
which must be observing those raindrops at just the right angles.
2 Three conditions are mandatory to see a rainbow. First, the sun
needs to be behind us. Second, there must be raindrops ahead of us, whether
miles or a few hundred feet away. Third, the sunlight must reach the
raindrops without any obstruction, such as clouds. When a ray of light
enters a raindrop and refracts, it separates into component colors. Red
light refracts, or bends, the least, while violet light refracts the most.
The different-colored rays travel toward the back of the raindrop. Some of
the light exits, but some of it bounces back at an angle, towards the front
of the raindrop. Some of the light reflects more than once, but to keep
this discussion simple, I'll restrict it to the light that reflects just
once. When light exits the front of the drop, some of it again refracts,
separating the colored rays still further. Key to why we see a rainbow is
that red light exits the raindrop at angles that are always smaller than 42
degrees from the direction of the sunlight entering the drop. And this is
the same for all raindrops, for the sun is very far away. The angle at
which the red light exists can be anything less than 42 degrees, and the
maximum angle is different for different colors. For violet light, the
maximum angle is about 40 degrees. The different maximum angles for each
color account for the stripes in the rainbow.
3 Lord Indra and the sun-god are involved together in the creation of
rainbows, which occur under prescribed laws. But since Indra and the
sun-god are specially empowered, there is an exception to the laws if these
demigods so desire. For instance, at the outset of the battle between
Indra's son Arjuna and the sun-god's son Karna, an interesting symbolic
confrontation took place between Indra and the sun-god. Thundering clouds
that flashed with lightning suddenly covered the sky, and without the
cooperation of the sun, a profusion of rainbows appeared. Seeing Lord Indra
affectionately sending his signs to encourage his son Arjuna and forecast
his victory, the sun vanquished the clouds that came too near his son
Karna. Thus Arjuna was covered by the shadow of Indra’s clouds, whereas
Karna was fully exposed, bathed in the rays of the sun. The word *guna *can
mean "string" or “mode.” Just as a rainbow has no string, the appearance of
the Personality of Godhead has nothing to do with the modes of material
nature. *Srimad-Bhagavatam *(10.20.18) states: "When the curved bow of
Indra [the rainbow] appeared in the sky, which had the quality of
thundering sound, it was unlike ordinary bows because it did not rest upon
a string. Similarly, when the Supreme Lord appears in this world, which is
the interaction of the material qualities, He is unlike ordinary persons
because He remains free from all material qualities and independent of all
material conditions."
4 Sometimes, in addition to the roaring thunder of the clouds, there is the
appearance of a rainbow, which stands as a bow without a string. Usually, a
bow stays in the curved position because it is tied at its two ends by the
bowstring; but in the rainbow there is no such string, and yet it rests in
the sky so beautifully. Similarly, when the Supreme Personality of Godhead
descends to this material world, He appears just like an ordinary human
being, but He is not resting on any material condition. In the
*Bhagavad-gita, *the Lord says that He appears by His internal potency,
which is free from the bondage of the external potency. The bow of the
Supreme Lord or His intimate devotee like Arjuna is often compared to a
rainbow. When Hanuman met Rama and Lakshmana at the edge of the lake by
Rishyamukha Hill, he prostrated himself before the princes and inquired
respectfully, “What brings you two shining ascetics to this region? You
appear like a pair of royal sages fit to rule the entire world, and Your
massive bows glow like rainbows.” Now, consider what
*Srimad-Bhagavatam *(1.11.27)
states: “As the Lord passed along the public road of Dvaraka, His head was
protected from the sunshine by a white umbrella. . . . His yellow garments
and garlands of flowers made it appear as if a dark cloud were surrounded
simultaneously by the sun, moon, lightning, and rainbows.” How is a
magnificent rainbow possible when dark clouds surround the sun? As if
anticipating this question, Srila Prabhupada answers: The sun, moon,
rainbow, and lightning do not appear in the sky simultaneously. When there
is sun, the moonlight becomes insignificant, and if there are clouds and a
rainbow, there is no manifestation of lightning. The Lord's bodily hue is
just like a new monsoon cloud. He is compared herein to the cloud. The
white umbrella over His head is compared to the sun. The movement of the
bunch-hair fan of flukes [hair] is compared to the moon. The showers of
flowers are compared to the stars. His yellow garments are compared to
lightning. And the flower garlands on His chest are compared to a rainbow.
So all these activities of the firmament, being impossible simultaneous
factors, cannot be adjusted by comparison. The adjustment is possible only
when we think of the inconceivable potency of the Lord. The Lord is
all-powerful, and in His presence anything impossible can be made possible
by His inconceivable energy. But the situation created at the time of His
passing on the roads of Dvaraka was beautiful and could not be compared to
anything besides the description of natural phenomena.
5 He says in the *Bhagavad-gita *(15.12), “The splendor of the sun,
which dissipates the darkness of this whole world, comes from Me.” The
exquisite beauty of rainbows and the precise reflections and refractions
involved in their formation remind him of the Supreme Lord’s perfect
design. Brahmam is the source of the energy and is the source of all
rainbows. Scientists are accorded great acclaim for a few spaceships, while THE
PURUSHA @ BRAHMAM, effortlessly creates gigantic planets and stars, and
perfectly maintains them. He says in the *Bhagavad-gita* (15.13), *gam
avishya cha bhutani dharayamy aham ojasa: *“I enter into each planet, and
by My energy they stay in orbit.” The laws made by the supreme brain are
perfect. The sun never rises in the west and never sets in the east, nor is
the colorful rainbow seen when the sun is ahead of us. Indeed, majestic
rainbows remind us of the supreme inconceivable intelligence and the
ability of the supreme scientist, Sri Purusha. Therefore, let us glorify
the source of rainbows through the second stanza from Sri
Vraja-Raja-Sutashtakam ("Eight Prayers Glorifying the Son of the King of
Vraja"): bhru-vishankita-vankima-shakru-dhanum
mukha-chandra-vinindita-koti-vidhum mridu-manda-suhasya-subhashya-yutam "He
whose broadly bending eyebrows appear like arched rainbows, whose pure
moonlike face belittles millions of moons, who is endowed with sweet gentle
smiles and pleasant speech – just worship the dark jewel, the son of the
King of Vraja."
