Chanting and Water in Ancient practices
Like
other traditional cultures, ancient Indian scriptures considered
water a sacred element and it formed the most essential part of
all rituals. It was a strict practice to keep water in a vessel
at the place where the rituals were being performed, especially
when chanting holy scriptures. It is considered a sin to do any
rituals without water even if one does not offer flowers, fruit or
any other food to God. After the rituals, the water is usually
given as 'prasad' in temples and homes.
In Indian temples after the priest does the chanting he
distributes water which carries the sound vibrations of the
chanting. There is a great secret behind this practice. The sounds
produced during chanting of holy scriptures have great influence
on the health of the people listening to it. The healing effect of
sounds is scientifically proven and need not be described here.
Water has a remarkable property of absorbing subtle sound
vibrations. Drinking this water after chanting will be doubly
beneficial because the sound vibrations will reach each and every
part of the cells in the body through water.
The
sacred syllable "AUM" was written on a glass of water and the
crystal structure that was observed is shown below:

Flavors,
Aroma & Water
Dr. Masaru Emoto treated water with aromatic oils and was
surprised to observe the water crystals which were similar to the
look of the flowers that the aroma oils were made from.

This
explains again why in Indian temples, herbs were added to the
water before chanting of Vedic scriptures. The most common herbs
used include bilva, basil, camphor, neem, turmeric, darba grass
etc. This herbal water is usually given to the devotees after
worship.
Bathing Rituals in Spiritual and/or Religious Traditions:
One of our friends conveyed a message that water was the only
chemical substance among thousands of chemicals tested by
scientist that could detect the subtle vibrations that reach the
earth from stars and planets thousands of miles away. This also
proves that ancient people understood the mysterious powers of
water and inculcated the practice of bathing in rivers on specific
days when the water receives vibrations from other planets and
galaxies.
