Story of the Nilavanti Granth

  A story about the Nilavanti Granth: एक समय की बात है, भारत के दिल में एक रहस्यमयी पुस्तक थी जिसे निलावंती ग्रंथ कहा जाता था। यह पुस्तक संस्कृत में एक ऋषि द्वारा लिखी गई थी। यह भारत की सबसे रहस्यमयी और चमत्कारी पुस्तकों में से एक मानी जाती थी। निलावंती ग्रंथ की कहानी निलावंती नामक एक महिला के साथ शुरू होती है, जिसे जादुई क्षमताओं का होना कहा जाता था। कहा जाता था कि उसे सभी जीवित प्राणियों की भाषा समझने की क्षमता थी। इसी अद्वितीय क्षमता के कारण निलावंती ग्रंथ इतना विशेष था। निलावंती उत्तर प्रदेश के एक छोटे से गांव में पैदा हुई थीं। जब वह सिर्फ पांच साल की थी, उसकी मां का निधन हो गया, तब उसके पिता ने उसे लेकर दूसरे गांव में चले गए। निलावंती ने अपने पिता से आयुर्वेद सीखा और उसे पौधों, जानवरों, और पक्षियों की भाषा समझने की अद्वितीय क्षमता भी थी। निलावंती जब बड़ी हुई, तो उसे सपने आने लगे जिसमें भूत-प्रेत उसे पृथ्वी के नीचे छिपे हुए खजानों के बारे में बताते थे। इन खजानों के बारे में जानने के बावजूद, निलावंती, एक सच्ची व्यक्ति होने के नाते, कभी उन्हें खोदकर नहीं निकाली। बजाय इसके, उसने भ...

वीर्य शरीर की बहुत मूल्यवान् धातु है । भोजन से वीर्य बनने की प्रक्रिया बड़ी लम्बी है | श्री सुश्रुताचार्य ने लिखा है : रसाद्रक्तं ततो मांसं मांसान्मेदः प्रजायते | मेदस्यास्थिः ततो मज्जा मज्जायाः शुक्रसंभवः ॥ जो भोजन पचता है , उसका पहले रस बनता है । पाँच दिन तक उसका पाचन होकर रक्त बनता है । पाँच दिन बाद रक्त में से मांस , उसमें से 5-5 दिन के अंतर से मेद , मेद से हड्डी , हड्डी से मज्जा और मज्जा से अंत में वीर्य बनता है । स्त्री में जो यह धातु बनती है उसे ‘ रज ‘ कहते हैं । वीर्य किस प्रकार छः सात मंजिलों से गुजरकर अपना यह अंतिम रूप धारण करता है , यह सुश्रुत के इस कथन से ज्ञात हो जाता है । कहते हैं कि इस प्रकार वीर्य बनने में करीब 30 दिन व 4 घण्टे लग जाते हैं । वैज्ञनिक लोग कहते हैं कि 32 किलोग्राम भोजन से 700 ग्राम रक्त बनता है और 700 ग्राम रक्त से लगभग 20 ग्राम वीर्य बनता है । आकर्षक व्यक्तित्व का कारण इस वीर्य के संयम से शरीर में एक अदभुत आकर्षक शक्ति उत्पन्न होती है जिसे प्राचीन वैद्य धन्वंतरि ने ‘ ओज ‘ नाम दिया है । यही ओज मनुष्य को अपने परम – लाभ ‘ आत्मदर्शन ‘ कराने में सहायक बनता है ...
