According
to the Vedic tradition a child is given Three Names by its father
during the Naming Ceremony. The father of the child is said to be
the Custodian of Culture into which the child is born and the Names
are meant to transfer the values and meanings encapsulated in the
names to the next generation through the child. Here the language
is secondary and the experience is primary. The desired impact
grows within the child like the pattern in the above picture. (
This picture is an arial view of a plantation.)
The enrolled students may try to answer the following
questions.
i) How does the human brain respond to the names logged in ?
ii) How do the three names create an integral pattern in the
embodied consciousness ?
Sans name the individual is a non-entity; not only socially, but
also existentially. Consciousness is not and does not entertain
emptiness. ( The Void of Buddha is Fullness and not a
vacuum.)
