"There
is nothing in the three worlds for knowledge besides the hand, which is
given to man and which can be read like a book." - Hasta Sanjeevani.
It is said that Palmistry has migrated from India to other countries
like Greece, Egypt, Persia and Syria in ancient times. Samudra, deity
of the Seas has first given this knowledge to the world, hence this is
called 'Samudrika'. Sages like Narada, Valmiki, Garga, Bhrigu, Prahlada
and Astrologers like Varahamihira have done a lot of work in Palmistry.
Palmistry was discussed in the great books like 'Bhavishya Puranam' and
'Hasta Sanjeevani'. But some how Palmistry could not receive proper
attention in India in modern times. It is given high regard in Western
countries.
"...It has put me under a Necessity of saying
something about Palmistry, which is a Judgment made of the Conditions,
Inclinations, and Fortunes of Men and Women, from their various Lines
and Characters which Nature has imprinted in the Hands" says Aristotle
in a paper written by him in 350 B.C. Today Palmistry has completely
transformed into a science, because of the extensive research done by
the intelligentsia. Palmistry is a science of understanding the Past,
Present and Future of a person by the pads and lines of a palm.
Palmistry revives its foundation on the experiments conducted by
Desbarrolles and d'Arpentigny in 19th century. They made a life time
study of Palmistry by collecting the imprints of Hands of thousands of
people, and classifying them according to the nature of people and
events which occurred in their lives. Then a hypothesis has been
developed and verified with the support of further research.
Just like a doctor examines a patient and determines his disease by
using clinical equipment, a Palmist can predict in advance the health
state of a person by simply observing his hands. Noel Jaquin and Eugene
Scheimann have proved this by their research. Mr Edward Kowalewski, a
professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and former
president of the American Academy of Physicians, says: "I try to watch
the hands of the patients in my waiting room, because they give so many
clues, both physical and emotional".
Micheal Faraday proved that electric charge is attracted by objects
with sharp ends. This is the reason, when the child enters this world
from his mother's womb, the life force from cosmos enters his body
through the fingers of his hands and toes of feet. Mostly the life
force enters through the index finger and goes up to the brain, where
it influences the person's thinking and circulates in the body and
finally comes back through the other fingers. The movement of life
force is channeled by the lines of the hand. Every finger of the hand
has been connected to a different area of the brain, thus activating
different processes in the brain.
The pads below the fingers are the places where a number of nerves are
bundled up. These pads are like capacitors to store the life force. The
life force also carries the energies coming from the planets in the
sky. And hence, the pads are named after the planets.
The answer for the question: How the hand reveals Past, Present and
Future of a person lies in the statement by Frances Kiezle: "Hands are
photographic plates upon which our brain writes our impressions". When
an event happens, our brain first reacts for the event, and that
reaction leaves a mark in our hands. By reading these marks, we can
understand the Past of a person. The sub conscious mind always carries
impressions from Past life, and these impressions bear considerable
affect on Present deeds. The sub conscious state can also be studied by
the hand, and hence the Future can be predicted.
Every hand is unique, and reflects the nature of the person. The pads
or mounts of the hand show the strengths and weaknesses in the
personality. The marks and lines in the hand describe a vivid picture
of events that take place in his life. But these marks and lines may
change from time to time depending on the planetary energies which vary
from time to time. By a careful examination of all these factors, we
can judge what the person is and what he has in store.
