Science behind the Indian traditions

Earlier when the literacy was very low instilling a fear of god was the only way to put forth scientific ideas and practices involving logical reasoning we have unfortunately forgotten the essence of such genius measures and brushed them away as superstition. In this blog I will be focusing on one such practice with reason which is said to be superstition.


The ganesha under the peepal tree:

The ganesha sitting beneath the peepal tree is a widely popular deity of worship among women. There is a common belief that women who are unable to conceive will be able to do so if they visit this god everyday in the early morning with wet clothes after the shower and walk in circles around the tree. 

           The secret behind the miraculous success of this practice is the peepal tree. This tree is known to give out high amounts of oxygen and very minimal amount s of carbon dioxide through the day. Oxygen is said to be the best cure for the hormonal imbalances in the body and naturally brings undernourished organs back to normalcy. Gradually, the hormone in the uterus start functioning routinely and the woman is able to conceive. Wet clothes help in better absorption of oxygen, thus ensuring maximum benefit of the ritual. The motive behind placing the cradles with lord Krishna murthy there is to convince the people to follow it in the name of god giving them a reason to diligently pursue it.
