Science of Spirituality

Introduction:
Assumptions are the base of any scientific theory and its development and progress. Presently in the advanced stage of science and technology which is progressing very rapidly. Still there are questions that are to be answered. Any advancement should also accompany with development of mind untouched by religion or undue influences, which hinder the progress of mankind. In general in science we do experiment with materials to know their properties and use them for the betterment of the mankind. For this certain hypothesis or assumptions are made and utilized for advancement of sciences.
In spiritual sciences the assumptions are different because we are dealing with our own body and mind. In order to observe or feel the certain changes in our own body and mind we need to cleanse the body and then the entire system from unwarranted material, which may hinder the mind to observe or feel about them.

By birth each and every life is clean in mind and body is to some extent free from unwarranted things. There may be some defects while birth, which is mainly due to unclean body of bearer or genetic disorders. Which are not in the control of the mankind. But most of them can be overcome except genetic disorders provided the birth is normal/natural. As the children grow their body and mind are influenced by the society and the societal needs and not but not the least is the influential people they come across during the developmental stages. This causes the unrest and also raises the unruliness and other antihuman activities.

Here in this I am discussing about how to clean ones own body and mind in order to live like a human being and helpful to the society so as the life can extend further for farther distances in coming ages.

Step 1:
Irrespective of religion or race or region or cast or sect people should know how to respect others as their own kind.
Accept the persons as they are. We belong to each other as human beings. Show affection and care for them.

Step 2:
Do your body loosening exercises coupling with some stretching the body muscles.
Do some pranayam breathing techniques learn from teachers, this helps in pumping in enough oxygen into the body and clears the blood. This helps in loosening abdominal muscles and also diaphragm.
Do some fast breathings bastrika to loosen the body muscles more and gives very good relaxation to spinal chord. This should be learnt from teachers only.
Do some very slow breathings followed by medium breathings and rapid breathings in comfortable position. This should be repeated for three times then give a long rest to the body so as the breathing becomes normal. This enhances further cleaning of the body and also mind to some extent. Most of the toxins in the body or reduced to minimum by this technique. These are sufficient for the normal duties of any man kind.
For further cleaning of the body one has to do some rigorous yoga techniques for further loosening and clearing the mind. (additional oxygen pumping coupled with muscle stretching)
Do some very very long inhaling, paused and very very slow exhaling techniques (meditation) techniques to further clean the mind.
Do the same as given in 6 by concentrating your mind at different chakras of your body in order to clean and energize those chakras.

These make ones body and mind healthy.

There are so many people and courses who teach, preach these techniques.

Best out of all these entire is basic and advanced courses offered by Art of Living foundation, Bangalore. One can visit site www.artofliving.org to collect nearby or local addresses for more information.

In this the assumptions are that:
The oxygen pumped in reduces the toxins and also extra glucose/proteins in the body. Thereby enhances the metabolism. This in turn activates the central nervous system to normal functioning.
One can concentrate at different locations of the body by closing the eyes.
Humankind is same in all geographical conditions, irrespective of their religion and customs
During the course period one has to strictly adhere to vegetarian food and be away from other unnatural habits like smoking, alcohol and drug addiction.
