Mayan’s Mayonic Science and Technology: The Fulfillment of the Veda Jessie Mercay, PhD
The Vedas are revealed scriptures or sacred wisdom handed down through the ages. They are the fundamental text underlying much of Indian philosophy and in many ways, world philosophy. The four main texts called Veda (Rik, Yajur, etc.) form the groundwork for ensuing commentaries and revelations Upanishads and other texts that form the whole body of literature called Vedas. There are four main ideas that form the basis of Vedic philosophy and spirituality. These ideas are the foundation upon which many Indian and Western philosophers and spiritual teachers have built and supported their concepts – each with their own twist on the four concepts.
1. One main Vedic concept has to do with seeking after the attainment of the Truth, Immortality and Light. The assumption underlying this concept is that there is a higher Truth that is deeper and more profound than the truth of outer existence; there is a light greater than the light of human understanding and knowing; and, there is an immortality that comes with uniting with the Supreme Godhead. 2. There is true Knowledge and true Consciousness. 3. The journey of life is a battlefield with the Devas and the Asuras where the battle between good and evil takes place. We humans must summon the Devas to help us destroy the darkness that overcomes the light. 4. There is One Reality – The One Supreme Power. By invoking the One, we are aided in our journey to overcome darkness, find Truth, and experience the Light. These precepts were revealed through various hymns. The hymns were placed in collections or Samhitas based upon their focus. The hymns that were primarily focused on prayer and dedication to the gods were placed together in the Rik mantra Samhita (Rig Veda – compiled by Paila under the guidance of Vyasa). The Rig Veda is thought to be the oldest of the Vedas. All the other Vedas are based upon it and consist to a large degree of various hymns from it. The Rig Veda (or Rik Veda as it is also called) consists of a thousand hymns with each hymn averaging around ten verses. Each hymn is noted with a Rishi, Deity and meter. The Rig Veda is the book of Mantra. It contains the oldest generally known form of all the Sanskrit mantras. It is said to be built around a science of sound that comprehends the meaning and power of each letter. Most aspects of Vedic science like the practice of yoga, meditation, mantra can be found in the Rig Veda and still use many terms that come from it. Hymns that were chanted during social functions and religious ceremonies were compiled by Vaisampayana and called the Yajus mantra Samhita (Yajur Veda). The Yajur Veda viewed from a surface perspective is the Veda of ritual. On an inner level, it sets forth yogic practice for purifying the mind and awakening the inner consciousness. It was the primary Veda used by the priests in ancient India and has much in common with the Egyptian Book of the Dead. The purpose of the ritual is to put together and recreate within our selves the Cosmic Person ‐
Indra. The ritual is used to recreate the universe within our own psyche and thereby unite the individual with the Universal. Its series of sacrifices culminate in the Atmayajna or the self‐ sacrifice wherein the ego is offered up to the Divine.
Vedic hymns that were set to music and poetry are said to have been compiled by Jaimini and were called Saman or Sama Veda. The Sama Veda is the Yoga of Song. It consists of various hymns of the Rig Veda put to a different and more musical chant. Hence the text of the Sama Veda is a reduced version of the Rig Veda. Sumantu compiled the fourth collection of hymns, the Atharva mantra Samhita (Atharva Veda) are hymns pertaining to incantations, magic, certain aspects of healing and other related topics. While some do not accept this as a fourth Veda, it none‐the less‐ is an important and ancient collection of hymns. Interestingly enough Atharvan is also an important figure in the Zoroastrian religion. Atar is the Persian name for fire and the Atharvan is the fire priest. The deities of the Atharva Veda are also the same as the Rig Veda although Rudra‐Shiva assumes a more visible role.
Over time, the compilations of these Samhitas were followed by visionary commentary and explanation in an effort to create more understanding of the fundamental hymns. These are the texts that make up the rest of the body of literature called Vedas. The original hymns of the Veda were said to have been cognized or revealed by sages called Rishis or Rikshas. The Veda itself reveals the source of Vedic knowledge: Richo akshare parame vyoman – “the riks abide in the immutable supreme Space (parame vyoman) where are seated all the Devas or luminaries. Rig Ved 1.164.39. The term riksha or rishi comes from the concept of the Riks as the source of the Veda. The Rishi or Riksha is the seer or revealer of this truth. The Rig Veda or Rik Veda derives its name from this term also. There has been a general habit of translating the Rik Veda without full understanding of the technical significance of some of the terms. With our knowledge of Pranava Veda, Mayonic Science and Vaastu Shastras we can begin to understand the Vedas more deeply.
The Rishi Mayan is the original Rishi of all of the Veda. The Rishi, Mayan, cognized or perceived the revelation of wisdom from this plane and transcribed it into verses or mantras with appropriate words/ sounds and meters. The process of transformation of the revelation into verse is mentioned in many mantras or verses of the Rig Veda. For example RV 9.114.2 says,
“They (rishis) chanted the mantras carved out of the heart. This carving out of the heart is
actually putting boundaries or confining the impulses or waveforms that exist in Atman or Brahmam – the Riks. Synonyms for carved are engraved and imprinted. The term carved in this context then implies that the Rishis chanted hymns that were imprinted in their heart. Certain members of the Vishwakarma tradition hold that Mayan chanted the Pranava Veda and other mantras and his incantations were memorized in a piecemeal fashion by people serving him and his yagyas – basically fire tenders and janitors. If we take the perspective that this is
true, then we can view hymns of the Veda in an entirely different light then other scholars. In other words, we can understand technical meanings of various hymns and apply that understanding to the overall main concepts of the Veda.
Mayan (circa 10,000 B.C.) perceived One Being, One Source of all. He may be the most ancient source of the knowledge of On Supreme Being. His concept that there was one Reality is echoed in all of the Veda and is one of the four primary concepts of the Veda (Points 1. and 4. above). He perceived that within that one reality all knowledge and all possibilities exist. He saw that The One Reality was is love with its own beauty (that being the beauty of its infinite potential) and It wants to savor or experience that Beauty. In its desire to do that It began manifesting Its beauty within itself. The first stage of the manifestation is pulse or Absolute Time (also called frequency).
As pulse occurs, OM Light is emanated within the body of It – Consciousness (which by its nature is luminous). This is the Light spoken of in the Veda (Points 1. and 4. above). As light moves in pulse, Sound occurs. This Light is not mentioned directly as OM Light but it is referred to in the Veda. Sound is referred to directly as OM. This important point brings out the idea that the knowledge of Mayan in the Pranava Veda was not fully understood and replicated piecemeal in the other Veda. From light and sound primeval gleams of Light microforms are produced. These microforms are called Riks or Devas/Luminaries (The Riks: Primeval Gleams of Light and Life; T. Paramasiva Iyer, Bangalore, 1911). These Luminaries are the very same luminaries annotated within the padas or modules of the Vaastu Purusha Mandala. It is these Luminaries or Riks that contain the knowledge of The One or the Divine as stated in the hymn Richo akshare parame vyoman – “the riks abide in the immutable supreme Space (parame vyoman) where are seated all the Devas or luminaries. Rig Ved 1.164.39. The Vaastu Purusha Mandala is nothing other than a diagram of the Supreme Space. It is Space or Consciousness (Brahmam) that has divided itself or individuated itself into eighty‐one units called pada devatas or Luminaries – Riks. It is these Luminaries or Devas that we must summon to over come the darkness that overlays the Light of Consciousness (point 3. above). We do this by summoning the One Reality – the Riks follow. This is what we do in the Vaastu Puja. We summon the One Reality – Vaastu Purusha and the Luminaries awaken within the Vaastu Purusha Mandala.
The fundamental crux of Vastu Science and Vaastu Science and Technology is that Mayan perceived that there is one force, one fundamental first Principle from which all life emerges, and in which all life resides and ultimately returns to in its Primal state of Pure Energy. He named this principle Brahmam. He saw that Brahmam (Absolute Space, Consciousness, Potential Energy) by its own initiative, goes through a specific process to transform and
manifest itself as the material world and its objects – Kinetic energy. Mayan perceived that the process was accomplished through a mathematical order and that that order could be replicated by humans to unfold specific qualities of Brahmam that would vibrate in a form that brought health, happiness and spiritual bliss to those who partook in that form. That form could be dance, poetry, music, sculpture, or architecture.
Building a Vaastu house, temple or other structure is a direct concretization of summoning The One – Brahmam and the Luminaries. This form then helps us, through the principle of resonance or Bhakti, to overcome the darkness that obscures our inner Divine Light. As this occurs, true knowledge is revealed to us ‐ “He who is awake, the Rikshas seek him out.” (Rig Veda).
This principle of resonance is a key idea developed by Mayan. The principle is simple: we build a building that conforms with the Cosmic pattern of the transformation of energy (consciousness) into matter (material world) as articulated in Pranava Veda and Vaastu Shastras and the Luminaries will awaken in that built space.
Because that space is built using the Cosmic order or Mayonic Order, it will become a living Being and vibrate with specific qualities of the Divine articulated through the building codes put forth by Mayan. When a person enters that building (or is near that building) the inner being of the person begins to vibrate in the same frequency as the building. Just as the Riks or Luminaries reveal their selves within the built space due to the application of Mayan’s building codes, they also reveal their selves within the inner space of the individual. "...If a part of free space is isolated and confined into a four walled structure called a building, it becomes a living organism and the space enclosed will start vibrating in a particular order. If such a building is designed to vibrate in the same numerical order as that of the indweller, the resultant phenomenon is that he will experience harmony or perfect union with the Universal Self..." Dr. V. Ganapati Sthapati "The embodied energy is Vaastu Purusha Mandala or the Creative Essence made manifest on the physical plane. The space enclosed in a building is Praasaada Purusha Mandala or "energized building." Such a building is a living organism built of musical units of measure. These units correspond with the primal vibrations of the cosmos itself." Brahmarishi Mayan,
circa 10,500 BC
"In the heart of the cave of the body there is inner space and in that inner‐space there is a vibrant thread of consciousness. It is this thread of consciousness that functions as the musical string of the bodily instrument.
The structure of the vaastu inspired building vibrates with cosmic energy and the bodily instruments resonates with this vibration. To create and offer the house of supreme bliss, and to enable us to experience that supreme bliss here in this mundane house itself ‐ these are the
The famous Vedic mantra, “He who is awake, the Rikshas seek him out” has also been translated as: "The Vedic mantras are in the never‐decaying remotest Space, wherein the Devas (Luminaries) reside. One who does not know that, what will he do with the Vedic mantras? One who knows that, the Devas stay with him (seek him)." (Rig Veda 1.164.39) The unveiling of this knowledge and experience of Light through the Riks via the application of Mayan’s building codes, unites us with the Supreme and our seeking after the attainment of Truth, Immortality, and Light is fulfilled (point 1. above). As we come to understand the cognitions of Mayan, we find that our identity with the material becomes more fully understood to be in actuality identity with the Spiritual because the entire material world is simply a frequency of Consciousness within the body of Consciousness or Brahmam. There is in fact no illusion. Everything is Consciousness itself. The material world is a fluctuation of primal Light and Sound in the body of Consciousness. Thus, we can say that the Veda is a verification of the knowledge found in Pranava Veda and the application of Vaastu Shastra is the means to the fulfillment of the knowledge and goals of the Veda.
As Vaastu consultants, it is our obligation to modify human thought regarding Brahmam, spirituality, Vastu, Vaastu, and building architecture of Sthapatya Veda. We must promote the teachings of Mayan as articulated in the Aintiram, Pranava Veda, Mayagama, Mayamata and texts given to us by Dr. V. Ganapati Sthapati, Vaastu Vyasa. We must gain a facile and plastic intellect that can hold a broad range of ideas that encompass the principles of how the Unmanifest Brahmam unfolds itself in the immaterial and material worlds. We must gain the skill to use the intrinsic order to build buildings that Consciousness itself uses to build Life itself. The main constructs contained in the Veda mentioned earlier in this paper are fulfilled through Mayonic Science and Technology. As we propagate this theme, we must understand the import of our work and remain faithful to the purity of the teaching. They indeed were comrades of the gods, Possessed of Truth, the poets of old: The fathers found the hidden light And with true prayer brought forth the dawn. (VII, 76, 4) (Rig Veda)
It is our duty as those who are now possessed of Truth to propagate the knowledge of the hidden light and through true prayer (Bhakti, resonance) bring forth the dawn.
