Saying visit to the temples are not only to get blessing but to get a calm and better mind

set. The
following 10 scientific reasons are the actual purpose of visiting the temple according to the Hindu
script.

1. The Location And Structure Of The

Temple

Temples are found deliberately at a place where the positive energy is available abundantly from the
the magnetic and electric wave conveyances of north/south post push. The idol of God is set in the
core center of the temple, known as Garbhagriha or Moolasthanam. Ideally, the structure of the

temple is built after the idol has been placed in a high positive wave centric place. This
*moolasthanam* is the place where earths magnetic waves are discovered to be most extreme.

Entering Temple

Temples are the place that contains pure vibrations of magnetic and electric fields with positive
energy. In olden days, temples were built in such a way that the floor at the center of the temple were
good conductors of these positive vibrations allowing them to pass through our feet to the body.
Hence it is necessary to walk bare footed while you enter the core center of the temple.
Another known reason is shoes and chappals are used everywhere hence they tend to get all the
impurities like dirt, germs etc which spoil the pure environment of the temple and is the source of
negative energy.

Five Senses Of Human Body Are Sight, Hearing, Touch,

Taste, And Smell. These Are Activated By The Following
Actions In The Temple:
The positive energy in the temple is absorbed properly only if you ensure that all five senses are
activated in your body while you are in the temple. Also the place of worship is said to be pleased
only if your five senses are pleased.

3. Ringing The Temple Bell When You

Activated

People who are visiting the temple should and will Ring the bell before entering the inner
temple (Garbhagudi, Garbhagriha, Moolasthanam or womb-chamber) where the main idol is
placed. These bells are made in such a way that when they produce a sound it creates a unity in the
Left and Right parts of our brains. The moment we ring the bell, it produces a sharp and enduring
sound which lasts for minimum of 7 seconds in echo mode. The duration of echo is good enough to
activate all the seven healing centres in our body. This results in emptying our brain from all negative
thoughts.
This bell sound is also absorbed by the idol and vibrated within the Garbhagudi for a certain
period of time.

4. Lighting Camphor In Front Of Idol

Sight Sense Activated

The inner core of the temple is usually dark where the idol is placed. You usually close your eyes to
pray and when you open your eyes you should see the camphor which was lit to do the Aarthi in front
of the idol. This light seen inside the dark activates your sight sense.
The other reason of lighting camphor is for the idol to absorb the heat and vibrate within the
Garbhagudi for certain period.

5. Put Your Hands Over The Camphor

Flames And Then Touch Eyes Touch

Once the camphor is brought to you after offering the prayer, you usually put your hands over the
camphor to make your hands warm and then you touch your eyes with your warm hands. This action
assures your touch sense is active.

Flower, is good to see, spreads good fragrance, very soft to touch, the nectar given by flower
pleases the tongue, and this combination is perfect for using at the temple.
Only specific flowers are used for offering to God like rose petals, jasmine, marigold based on
different factors, amongst them fragrance is most important. The fragrance of the flower, camphor
and instance sticks all together have the strong essence to keep your smell sense active and
pleasant giving calmness to the mind.

7. Drinking Theertham Taste Sense

Activated

The next part of your act would be to drink theertham ideally from a silver or a copper vessel. The
water used for theertham usually would contain Thulasi leaves dipped in water and must be stored at
least for eight hours in the copper vessel. According to Ayurveda, water stored in a copper vessel
has the ability to balance all the three doshas in your body, (vata, kapha and pitta) and it does so by
positively charging the water. By drinking this Thulasi water you activate the taste sense. The other
benefits of drinking Thulasi water from a copper or silver vessel also includes cure for soar
throats, Fever & Common Cold, Coughs, Respiratory Disorder, formation of Kidney Stone, Heart
Disorder chances will be reduced.

8. Doing Pradakshina Around The

Garbhagriha/Moolasthanam

Finally, after performing all the above rituals you have to walk around the idol inside the Garbhagirha,
the inner most chamber of temple in clockwise direction for nine times. Pradakshina literary means
right side in Sanskrit.
The idol inside the Garbhagriha absorbs all the energy from the bell sound, camphor heat and
vibrates the positive energy within the Garbhagriha for a certain duration of time. When you do the
pradakshina at this point of time, you tend to absorb all these positive vibrations once your five
senses are activated. This vibration inside the Garbhagriha is considerably less and hence it is
advised to visit the temple very often and follow the same rituals again.

9. Applying Tilak/Kumkum Given By The

Temple Priest

On the forehead, between the two eyebrows, is a spot that is considered as a major nerve point in
human body since ancient times. The Tilak is believed to prevent the loss of energy, the red
kumkum between the eyebrows is said to retain energy in the human body and control the various
levels of concentration. While applying kumkum the points on the mid-brow region and Adnya-chakra
are automatically pressed. This also facilitates the blood supply to the face muscles.

10. Why Offer Coconut And Banana To

God When You Visit Indian Temples ?

Coconut and Banana are the only two fruits in this world which are considered to be Sacred fruits.
All other fruits are tainted fruits (partially eaten fruits). For example, the apple tree grows from the
seed of another eaten fruit and that fruit is treated as tainted.
In the case of coconut and banana, the shell or the sleeves is not used for anything. To grow a
coconut tree, you have to sow the entire coconut itself and Banana tree grows with the sampling.
This is the reason why Coconut and Banana has an important place in all religious activities.
Our Ancestors had found this reality long ago and they had made it as a system which is still
followed religiously.
