SAVE MURUGAN IDOL FROM UNKNOWABLES

Article by Dr. D. Rajaram,
Institute of Cosmic Information,

Introduction:
It is customary for people in a society to comment or offer rectification of problems, the basis of which is far beyond their analytical faculties. And, there is no dearth of people in position whose proposals are considered as gospels even in areas, which the proposing 'authority' is ignorant about. The following article is released with the intention of ensuring continuation of blessing and benevolence of Lord Murugan on the hilltop shrine at Palani. May people realise the qualities and properties of the idol of Lord Muruga. Every ardent devotee and caretaker of the idol should confer and save the idol of Lord Murugan from the inevitable that would follow if anyone 'tampers' with the existence of the idol which has withstood the ravages of time and geography for more than 5000 years since the installation under rigid cosmic disciplines


Cosmic basis of the installation of the idol.
(1) Oozes kindness.
(2) Provide a cosmic 'kavacham, a sheath.
(3) Corrects defects in composition of soul of all life forms.
(4) Corrects, make good deficiencies.
(5) Dissipates benevolencing energy.
(6) 'Self-generating' cosmic terminal.

A cosmic terminal is an installation performed by celestials under rigid disciplination, for harnessing energy of planet Mars.This commentary is our response to the article that appeared in Junior Vikatan of 6/10/2003 as reported by Mr. Shanmuhkhasundaram.We have organised our discussions in a sequence to ensure an appropriate registration of points raised and facts explained.

(1) Mutilation of idol and deterioration of figure.
Deterioration of an idol that has withstood the ravages of time and geography for than 5000 years has been attributed to the use of pooja materials brought in by devotees, which many times are adulterated with chemicals. I have seen many cases of adverse skin reactions due to kumkumam and chandanam. It is these and such other adulterated materials that are offered on the idol! And, to add to the ill-effects, scraping of parts of the idol while removing the 'anointed' materials by some people who have an access to enter the sanctum and touch the idol.

(2) Report of an investigation / research committee.
Perhaps with the aim of assessing the composition of the idol, which if known could be utilised for fabricating an idol for replacement, a study conducted and reported, revealed that many other idols and the idol of Murugan on hill top shrine were studied and analysed. The materials kept in contact with the idol overnight were analysed on sophisticated spectrometers. Every other idol, other than idol of Mururgan had shown traces of materials composing the idol, but only the idol of Murugan did not show any trace of the material composing the idol. Such a study looks only at the idol and not beyond and deeper. Who can analyse the 'cosmic composition' of the idol?

(3) Destiny of gold offerings to Lord Murugan.
Devotees offer many things to lord and out of that one of the offerings are in gold. When gold accumulates beyond a specific quantity it will be taken away and kept under the custody of R.B.I. Perhaps, to prevent this, a view has been proposed to (1) fabricate an idol of lord in gold and install it at the same site in the sanctum as a replacement of the present idol, (2) to prepare a covering or a shield of gold to 'protect' the idol. Such proposals come from privileged some, who are held in high esteem.

Please understand the following features.
(1) Gold is not a component of the idol of 'hill top' Murugan.
(2) Navapashanam by itself is an inert substance.
(3) Intricate factors are organised in the fabrication of the 'matrix' of navapashanam;'
(4) Essential property of the 'matrix' is 'porosity'.
(5) These 'porosities' coalesce to form 'channels'.
(6) Energy 'generated' in the 'core' centres in the idol circulates in these channels.
(7) Cosmic energy circulating within these channels in the idol reach upto the surface of the idol and return back to their 'core' centres.
(8) Outer coat of the idol is a 'cosmic energy surface coat'. It is a 'sheath' of harnessed and processed energy.
(9) The 'enshrined aura' condenses as an 'aura membrane' adjacent to the 'cosmic energy surface coat'.
(10) There is an 'interface' between the 'cosmic surface coat' of the
Idol and the 'aura membrane' within the sanctum.
(11) Blessing energy is processed and 'generated' in this 'interface'.
(12) This is the cosmic mechanism by which the 'unique' idol of Murugan in the hilltop shrine 'oozes kindness', 'emits benevolence' and 'dissipates blessings' which 'float out' of the sanctum and blends with the 'aura' of devotees.

DISCUSSION;
Navapashanam, by itself an inert material has to be activated like charging a battery. Specific 'cosmic' reverberations 'open' out these 'porosities' to create channels. These channels are a network of 'closed-conduit' system. The energy received at a cosmic terminal is harnessed and processed for proper dissipation, travels along these channels, reach very near to the 'surface crust' of the idol and 'emits' its benevolencing energy from the 'surface coat'. Here, the adjacentness to the 'aura' within the sanctum contributes the 'reciprocatory' energy component. It is this benevolencing energy that 'floats out' of the sanctum. Devotees coming in front of the idol receive this 'blessing' energy on their outer coat, their 'aura'.

Preferably therefore, our bodies will effectively receive the blessing energy, if our upper parts are kept uncovered while coming in front of the presiding deity; in our context Murugan. This is the basis of the system of 'tonsure', because when anyone particularly a child at a tender age is brought in front of the idol, will receive the benevolencing energy in an enhanced proportion direct into their higher vital centres.
Therefore, when a 'cosmic discipline' recommends a devotee to come 'bare body and tonsured head' while coming in front of a heavily energised idol as Murugan on hill-top shrine at Palani, it is paradoxical to hear someone saying 'cover the idol' with gold covering! Atrocious proposal !! It will totally block dissipation of benevolencing energy from the cosmic terminal the 'idol' and prevent it 'floating' out of the sanctum! The idol will get converted into a 'glamour' idol because, people are enamoured by the gold, and would tend to overlook the mission of their worship. This only exposes the ignorance of the ones who propose paradoxes!

Moreover, any other material other than the original 'matrix' prepared with great disciplination and instructions to Sage Bhogar from Parashakthi as Bhuvaneswari, 'cannot be replaced or grafted'.
It is our common knowledge that even our body systems 'reject' organs when they are grafted, like, we hear of rejection of a kidney graft. Similar is the fate of any material 'grafted' like the 'patch ups' done on the idol by people from Thiruvadithurai Adeenam. It is reported that the 'patch ups' fell off, after some time! This is the rejection we are talking about. Lucky, very lucky they are that they were 'spared' the painful experience of a 'forcible rip-off' of the concocted patches, which they applied on Lord's idol! Did anyone realise what has been done?
Cosmic energy requires a specific type of material for 'idolisation'.

There was a 'trial and error' in the identification of a material that would provide for 'porosity' and 'channelisation'. Any other material like granite or alloy of metals was unsuitable, because the idol is expected to 'collect', 'store', 'concentrate' and 'process' the energy generated. Nothing other than the 'matrix' of the special material would be able to withstand the 'force' and the 'impulse' of the energy generated. It is a pity, people who lack cosmic knowledge propose replacement of the present deteriorating idol of Murugan. Sage Bhogar had not used gold as a component, even in the composition of the 'matrix', leave alone utilising it for sculpting. It is no different from a professor of History trying to teach students of 'cosmic biology', what 'his' history has to say regarding cosmic biology! What else can one expect but guesses!

CONCLUSION:
(1) No other material other than 'matrix' has the 'porosity'.
(2) Any other alloy or metal is unsuitable for 'idolisation.
(3) 'Patching' up with any dissimilar material 'rejection' occurs.

Retain 'as it is' of what is left, till the replacement is declared, yes.
