The Name

AGNI.EDU. A name that will echo into eternity. That will blast ignorance from the mind and create flower fields of peace and fulfilled dreams. The trick with naming something i believe is not to rely on the name to bring interest rather its the context of what the name is associated with that will get the peoples eyes and minds.

This conversation will hopefully inspire and create EVOLUTION into you and my being. There will be so many thoughts and varied meanings, where DIVERSITY will be the fruit in which we feast, and the enjoying will be where we come together and UNITE as one in common ideals and thoughts. the EDU in the name was inspired by these three words EVOLUTION,DIVERSITY AND UNITY.

The Context is established, now let us look at AGNI.

Agni is a sanskrit word and personality, that gives light and warmth. Agni in Ayurvedic terms represents the fire of digestion both in a cellular level and a mental level. The ability to metabolize and assimilate anything in the world be it external or internal relies on the condition of our Agni. They say if one has the blessing of Agni, he becomes invincible, Shiva is the master yogi and has the ability to ingest any types of poisons due to his agni.

The prime seat of Agni is located in the stomach and is also the gastric secretions that our pancreas does such a good job at maintaining and regulating. Agni is responsible for all transformation in the body.

When one maintains a healthy Agni through the practice of a regulated diet and lifestyle, there quality of life becomes pure and blissful.

The Definition of Health in Ayurved is Defined as:

"one who is established in self, who has balanced Agni, Properly formed Dhatus, Proper elimination of malas, well functioning bodily processes and whose mind, soul and senses are full of bliss is called a healthy person"

‎

So let this first post be a honoring to Agni Dev and may his ability to transform and warm all our hearts be forever present.
