A Positive View - Why women don't perform Pujas or visit Temples During Menstruation

Our body has enormous energy flows in the systems. In a human body two vital energies flows in various motions for processes inside the body.

These vayus are

Prana Vayu - upward flowing-
operates from the heart area - vitalizing life forces

Vyana Vayu - operates throughout the whole body - coordinating energy throughout the systems

Samana Vayu - operates from the navel area, deals with digestion - mental discrimination between useful and not useful thoughts

Udana Vayu - operates from the throat drives exhalation, operating in conjunction with Prana Vayu, which deals with inhalation

Apana Vayu - downward flowing energy - operates from the base of the torso in the rectum area - elimination processes.

The same also helps in shedding of the uterine lining when women menstruate hence accumulating negative or weak auras around due to losts of energy loss.

In temples and places with pujas there is a Kindling of kundalini in body. The energy flows clash in such a way that the apana and prana vayu travel reversing in directions to meet at a point for Kundalini. This unintentional kindling of the energies affect women's body in depths

All spiritual activities aim to uplift the flow of energies in the body. This upward kindle of energy obstructing the downward flow of menstruating elimination causes harmful effects to systems.

They face irregularities in the organ and issues related to fertility and menstrual flow arise in such conditions. Conditions like amenorrhoea (absence of a menstrual period) and dysmenorrhoea (severe uterine pain during menstruation) etc.,leads to weakening of a womans condition

There would be serious impact on ovulating capacity and shifting of menstruating cycles to early and frequent or late responsive as per the complications. A serious hormonal rushes disturbs a woman's mental and emotional response to the environment.

The disturbances are not seen prominently by naked eyes, but there are huge disturbances at organ levels due to clashes in vital energy flows. The energies were Tamasic and Rajasic and didn't support sathwik flows.

These Rajasic and Tamasic energies obstruct a woman from recepting any sathwik vibrations as such and sometimes make them fall prey to any susceptible negativities wandering around.

What to do when you want to pray ?

Manomaya Namaparayan( Name Calling ) of Ishta Devi Devta, helps women a lot to keep their Manomaya kosha intact. This kosha is responsible for balanced mind and emotions and covers the aatman. No Bijas and mantras to be invoked.

Women during menstruation in ancient times were given a special place in home to
1. Rest frm natural chores
2. Have your own world of relaxation
3. Give a man opportunity to take th responsibilities
4. Stay healthy and restful by being at a place
5. Eat well and sleep peacefully

A woman needs good healthy meal, clean & Hygiene life, lift less weights and not stress body more because excessive stress on uterus has bad effects leading to infertility problems too in cases.

They needs calm yoga poses & Mudra yoga, soft music & calm chants to help compensate lot of energy losses. Women can't handle the kindling of the Kundalini with high energy flows without a preperation in self, esp uncalled during the menstruation.
