APAH… JAL.. or WATER… call it by any name. One that covers more than 70% of the earth’s surface and constitutes nearly the same amount in our bodies, it is the element which evolves from the other 3 elements ether, air & fire.
Apah, which brings respite to the scorching earth and nourishes it with life
Jal, which holds an intelligence and heals & energizes
Neer, that which is calming to the soul and invigorating to the mind
Achamaniyam, it carries with it the memories of the past and surges ahead to create a future
Water - which is fundamental to life, is both gentle & ferocious, calm & vivacious, flowing & still, stable & cloudy. Always in motion, it is the elixir of life.
