itself. But as the work done by such an object consumes energy and that energy is taken out of the actual body of the medium or the object and he or she feels exhausted or tired after the vision has been removed. The opposite is also true that the object can get calm, peace and rest through the appropriateness of good visionary bodies being imposed which may produce such results. This is, in very short, to give an indication and further deductions can be derived by reasoning on the same line, experiments and researches etc. The vision or mental picture of a peaceful, calm body, like that of a Tirthankara or his image will create peace of mind, joy and serenity etc. We must always view, see and imagine pictures, idols and photos etc. of saints and greatmen who lived and preached goodness, serenity, calmness, non injury etc. We must not look upon or view warring or hedeous pictures etc. Good things, pictures, scenes and good idols produce good effects and bad pictures etc. produce bad effects. Bad pictures and idols of gods or Devatas also produce bad and adverse effects—howsoever that God or Devata night have been described to be great or good,or boons giving or so. 16
