Where Science Comes From. Moving Your Life Forward Using Power of Discovery.

Dear Friend,

As you probably know, the progress of science hasn’t necessarily come from scientists figuring everything out by themselves. There have been many times when discoveries were made after a scientist had given up on a problem or had stopped thinking about it for a while.

These discoveries have been arrived at through serendipity or ‘lucky chance’.

An example is the mRNA vaccines produced by Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna that saved, probably, millions of lives during the COVID pandemic.

Compared to traditional vaccines, mRNA vaccines have the advantage of speed of development. This is crucial when there’s a race against time to protect people against a fast-spreading deadly disease.

Their other advantage is easy adaptability. This is important for quickly switching up to tackle new viral variants. With traditional vaccines this is a longer-winded process involving going back to the starting blocks, in effect.

Dr Katalin Kariko, who won the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology / Medicine for her breakthrough research on mRNA had faced significant hurdles to success.

For decades, she couldn’t get the funding at the University of Pennsylvania, where she worked, to study mRNA. In 1995, she was demoted and the science community largely forgot about mRNA therapy.

She nevertheless persevered privately and eventually discovered, with a colleague, Drew Weismann, how to modify mRNA to prevent severe inflammatory reactions. It was that discovery that made mRNA vaccines possible, more than 15 years later.

Who could have known?

The knowledge about everything it seems, already exists somewhere and Nature occasionally raises her veil to give a glimpse.

On a more mundane note, you can use this to get guidance and solutions to day-to-day questions you have about anything by allowing yourself to become thoughtless.

Whenever you’re feeling stuck in a rut, this is how you can move your life forward. More below.

Food for Thought vs. Food for Less Thought - Gaining Calm by Reducing the Things in Your Diet that Heat Your Liver.

Eating cheese before bed, can give you nightmares, it’s been said, and drinking a lot of coffee can increase anxiety. Although the claim about cheese is only folklore, both cheese and coffee tend to ‘heat’ your liver, according to yoga, which in turn can lead to cascading thoughts. On the other hand certain foods can calm you. Here’s a sample list of ‘cool’ and ‘heating’ things you may be eating so that you know the difference…Chow Down .

Sound of Silence - What it Was like to Meditate with The Adi Shakti.

At the countless international public programs delivered over 40 years, Shri Mataji would blow into the mic during the kundalini awakening exercise. In her seminars with Sahaja yogis, such as the one here, the blowing in the mic, like the sound of silence, could help everyone get into thoughtless awareness. See whether it works for you...Clear Head .

The Power of NOT Thinking: The Source of Scientific Discovery.

You may discover that your superpower is your ability to rest your mind by not thinking, when you meditate. This is because when you’re mentally quiet, your brain can act as a better receiver of information that’s beneficial to you in some way. This is where science comes from…Discover It .

Quote of the Week

“Your fortress is in thoughtless awareness (nirvicharita). Know in thoughtless awareness and you will know everything. Anything you have to do go into thoughtless awareness.

Once you do all worldly works in thoughtless awareness then you will know how dynamic it has become.

Who has seen flowers bloom or become fruits? You’re moving in that dynamism and in this living thing. It is coming from thoughtlessness.

Try to make a habit of remaining in thoughtlessness. Every work (Nature’s accomplishments) is done through thoughtlessness and so will yours.

This is your place, your wealth, your strength (shakti). This is your beauty. Thoughtless!”

Also feel free to share here any experiences you’ve had with the meditation; any insights, or any comments that might be helpful to other readers

I had some really powerful experiences with the meditation when I first started but not so much these days, even though I continue to feel the daily benefits. It’s like landing on a plateau. Is that normal?

Reply:

The before and after experience of kundalini awakening is usually the strongest for most people. Then as you get used to it, it becomes more part of who you are and so is less noticeable.

But kundalini is not static. She’s trying to make your awareness blossom into a new state by which your whole experience of life is transformed.

This is a labour of love that you contribute to by being regular with your practice and giving yourself a weekly booster with the group meditation sessions.
