Dear Vrin,

Thank you for the note that the Indian Embassy does not celebrate officially
Krishna Janmashtami. I have sent the following:

Your Excellency,

I am stunned to hear that the Holidays Calender of Indian Embassy does not
include the Krishna Janmashtami, Ram Navami, Devi Navaratri, etc. Is even
India herself in the process of forgetting its oldest known tradition of
knowledge for exchange of the short-lived everchanging non-values of the
West?

Vedic Gods such as Krishna, Shiva, Devi, Ganesha, are not Gods in the sense
of other religions – some fearful gods far away. They contitute life itself,
indeed, they constitute human physiology itself – the universal
intelligence. Therefore to celebrate their days is life-supporting for
everyone.

Veda and Vedic Literature, which describes in-depth these aspects Universal
Intelligence, displays the eternally lively self-expressed value of Natural
Law; it is the sequential evolution of the Laws of Nature, the impulses of
Creative Intelligence – Devatas – that evolve into material creation.

The holistic value of Natural Law, eternally awake within itself, locates
within its Wholeness, within its generality, the element of specificity –
the specific impulses of Creative Intelligence – the five Tanmatra (the 5
basic structures of the administering inteligence of Natural Law) lively in
the names Ganpati, Shiva, Vishnu, Surya, and Devi. These names evolve into
form – intelligence evolves into physiology.

For example, Professor Tony Nader Ram has identified the form of Ganapati in
the brainstem. In English the names of the different physiological
structures that together structure Ganpati are „pons“ for the head of
Ganpati, „cerebelum“ for the ears, „medulla“ for His trunk, the „trigemital
nerve roots“ for His eyes, and a group of nerves at the base of the ponsfor
His tusks – their function is to distinguesh and separate the positive
qualities of intelligence from the negative qualities of intelligence.

In the Vedic Literature this „Ganesh quality of intelligence“ has a name
Vighneshwara-the great remover of obstacles-the administering intelligence
of Natural Law that removes obstacles.

The Vedic Literature describes Lord Vighneshwara sitting at the door of a
cave to guard against any negative influence entering into the field of
eternal balance-Shiva-the silent domain of Total knowledge endowed with
infinite organizing power. Prof. Tony Nader Ram describes this functioning
value of Ganapati in the physiology in terms of the „gateway to brain“ (pons
controls awareness and behavioural performance as well as the inputs and
outputs of the brain). Prof. Tony Nader Ram has also discovered that other
structures and functions of the human physiology correspond to the
structures and functions of other Devata values – Shiva, Vishnu, Surya,
Devi, and their incarnations as described in the Vedic Literature.

India has a tradition of celebrating festivals with reference to the
structures and functions of the Laws of Nature as they have been portrayed
in the Vedic Literature in terms of Ganpati, Shiva, Vishnu, Surya, Devi,
etc. Every year, as a routine of the Indian calendar, all the qualities of
Creative Intelligence that administer life are celebrated: Vasanti Panchami,
Maha Shivaratri, Ram Navami, Krishn Janmashtami, Ganesh Chaturthi, Devi
Navaratri, Dipawali, etc.

It is very important that those who hold the reins of national
administration understand how the daily routine of celebrating the different
values of the administering intelligence of Nature help to create and
maintain a perfect government.

Collective consciousness is the real administrator of the nation. Government
is the mirror of the nation-whatever is the quality of collective
consciousness, that is the quality of the government.

On the day of Mahashivaratri, the whole national consciousness wakes up in
the quality of Shiva; on Dipavali, the whole national consciousness wakes up
in the quality of Mahalakshmi; on the day of Navaratri, Mahadurga dominates
national consciousness; on Krishna Janmashtami, the whole national
consciousness wakes up in that holistic quality of Natural Law lively in the
name of „Krishn“.... Every day the Indian calendar (panchang) brings to the
awareness of the people some specific quality of Natural Law.

This national tradition of recognizing, upholding, cherishing, and
celebrating different qualities of Nature´s Intelligence day by day and
night after night naturally unifies, integrates, and harmonizes the
collective consciousness of the whole population of India every day, day
after day throughout the year.

This tradition has alwas been, and will always be a great nourishing,
unifying, integrating, and harmonizing power for national consciousness.

If the government of India does not honour and does not promote this most
precious element of Indian culture, the precious value of renewal and
revitatization of the intergrating quality in national consciousness, then
it is not the Government of India. It may be the Government of Germany, or
the Government of England or Italy – but it can hardly be called the
Government of India.

May I direct your attention to the following internet sites that document in
a scientific and systematic way the power and effectiveness of Vedic
technologies in solving modern problems of our times in the areas of
education, crime fighting, health, military, economy, and all others:
