JAINISTIC & SCIENTIFIC ANALYSIS OF EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTIONS
OF SHRI ASHOK DUTT
Muni Nandighoshvijay *
Someone spoke, Shri Ashok Kumar saw a mass of variously gliftering colourful energy particles. Besides/Moreover, he saw various kinds of coloured energy particles emerging from living and nonliving objects. Also, he sometimes saw living objects absorbing coloured energy particles from the surrounding atmosphere. In his article 'The Secrets of The Alphabet and The Incontation - Sound' in the October - December, 1992 issue of the Farbus Quarterly, he has expressed some of his experiences about sound. I was very much delighted to read the article entitled 'The secrets of the Alphabhet and the Incontation - Sound'. His experiences are much in keeping with the Jain view of reality. We shall analyse them later on. Let us first get acquinted with the belief of modern scientists regarding sound.
Generally, scientists believe that both sound and light are in the form of waves. Of course some phenomena of light and especially the phenomenon of photo-electric - effect, can be explained only by accepting that light is in the form of particles. Generally, scientists call these particles photons. They were first called 'Quanta' by Einstein and the science that deals with them, is called quantum mechanics.
Light' is of two types - 1. Visible light and 2. Invisible light. Invisible light (.e. some electromagnetic waves) are also of two types - (1) that which has less/low frequency and greater wave length than visible light and which is known as infra red waves and (2) that which has greater/high frequency and small wave - length than visible light and which is known as ultra violet
rays. 2
The classification of sound is similar to that of light. Generally, the human ear can hear sounds with a frequency varying from 20 to 20,000. Sound is of two types : (1) audible sound with a frequency varying from 20 to 20,000 and (2) inaudible sound which is also of two types - (1) Sound with a less/low frequency than 20 is known as infrasonic waves, the elephant can hear infra sonic waves and (2) sound with a greater/higher frequency than 20,000 is called ultra sonic sound. With the help of sound waves of this type, the urine stone is reduced to powder and removed without a surgical operation. In short, the scientists of today believe that sound is entirely in the form of waves.
