The 5 Great Elements
By Master Manisekaran
Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Space constitute the 5 great elements in ancient alchemy. Underscoring the concept and philosophy is a beautiful purpose to get the masses to preserve the environment.
Even meditation is connected to the mastery of these elements. But it’s not the supernatural outcome that is important, it’s the harmony and care towards the environment that is most important.
On one hand, we have yogis meditating on the elements, connecting with peace and balance while advancing spiritually, and on the other hand, we have scores of people exploiting and destroying nature for profit at all costs… and in the name of industrialisation, pushing earth to the maximum level of toleration, adversely prompting reactions in massive proportions.
So let’s work together at healing rather than destroying, as we will bear the results of our actions or non-actions by not preventing the wrong actions of others.
