Life force of Gems

Life Force Of Gems

Since ancient times, India has been a source of gems and knowledge of their uses. They were valued for healing and spiritual reasons. Their use as an ornament was of secondary importance. Gems were known to increase the flow of different energies. Individuals would use them both for their personal uses, and in places where many could benefit from their energies, as in temples dedicated to God.

Gems are the life force of the mineral kingdom. In the Vedic texts on astrology, there is information on how the different gems are actually storehouses of the different energies radiated to earth by the other planets in our solar system. They are the means of connecting the earth and the other stars and planets. They are connectors between the physical energies and the subtle ones. Therefore their usage harnesses specific energies to help in many ways to enhance the overall quality of life.
