BENEFITS
OF GEMSTONES
The
gems and stones have curative power, bestow prosperity and enhance
good luck to the man. Gems were well known to our ancestors since
ages. Gems and their beneficial uses have been mentioned in Ved's
and Puran's. It is believed that gems can cure some of the deadliest
diseases. Earth has greater gravitational force than the other
planets. Due to the gravitational force, a huge amount of cosmic
rays of the planets falls on the earth. These rays fall on the
human beings also who live on earth. Such rays produce many effects
on the physical and mental conditions of human beings. By virtue
of these effects, many incidents occur in his life. Every incident
involving a human being is a reflection of his thoughts only.
As his thought is, so will be the incidents.
Hence the nine planets by means of their cosmic rays influence
the human beings' minds, influence their thoughts, and cause good
and bad luck to them. Generally, cosmic rays of all planets produce
negative vibrations. These negative vibrations create bad effects
on human beings. Though all the planets' vibrations affect human
beings, the birth planet's rays always surround him invisibly.
Theirs are also negative vibrations. Gems have the power of transforming
these negative vibrations into positive ones. They may offset
the evil vibrations and as a result only good vibrations may affect
human bodies, thereby producing good luck to us. Wearing of lucky
gem not merely changes our bad luck into good one, but also cures
our ill health and brings about success in our finance, business,
job, education, marriage, and confers peace of mind. Gemstones
are formed from the molten lava thrown out by volcanoes, when
a volcano erupts, the molten lava brings out many mineral substances
along with it which, due to the extreme heat, have been cleared
of all impurities and attained liquid form. When the lava cools
down, the purified mineral substances solidify and begin to sparkle
as gemstones. These gemstones are normally found scattered in
river beds.
Gemstones
are identified and valued by their color, brilliance and beauty
.The gemstones which are found to be rare are called as precious
gemstones and others are called semiprecious stones. Diamonds,
rubies, sapphires and emeralds come under precious stones. The
other gemstones come under semi precious stones. Our body is composed
of seven colours. They are called the 'Indra Dhanush' in Shastras.
These colours should be in equal amount in our body. If any colors
is deficient, our health will suffer. We should then inject rays
of the deficient colours into our body by means of the gem which
picks up the concerned planet's colour rays and radiates them
into our body. Planets are in different colours and each emits
rays of its own colour to the Earth. Different gems capture and
radiate them into our body. Selection of appropriate gem can be
done through astrology, numerology, zodiac signs, ruling planets,
date of birth, month of birth, cure for any particular illness
and so on. The colour, appearance and the weight of the gem are
the most important factors for buying a gem.
As you become familiar with stones, meditation, healing work,
and the energies within and around you, you will begin to incorporate
your awareness into different aspects of your life and consciousness.
Studying and working with the chakra system will help you become
aware of the powerful life force energy that exists within our
bodies, minds, our environment, and ultimately the physical and
divine universe. Your body is indeed your temple.
