अश्विनौ देवता
प्रात: काल से दैनिक जीवन क्रम
1. प्रातर्युजा वि बोधयाश्विनावेह गच्छताम | अस्य सोमस्य पीतये || ऋ1.22.1
The अश्विनौ Ashvinou twins – प्राण अपान inhale and exhale- i.e. our breathing, both work in tandem all the time . But when the sun rises in the morning it is our duty to engage सोम Soma (our intellect) to make a start of the day with fruitful actions for intelligent and effective operations of our duties. Only when Soma gets involved with the twin of अश्विनौ Ashvinau पृथ्वी अग्नि in life, useful and desired results emerge.
(Soma is the software for operating the system of the hardware that is physical world.) For every physical activity as well as technological activity, an intelligent operating system is needed. Even the operation of the sun, modern science tells, it is a fusion nuclear reaction technology that operates it . It is referred as आदित्य:सोम:. Sun operates by Soma. To be empowered, one needs the ability to reach from one place/stage to other . Here Ashwin twin Dewtas would represent the involvement of inputs of knowledge, science and technologies along with actions to move on the desired right path to achieve wellbeing of all. Again all systems in their dynamic equilibrium depend on balancing of two polar forces. In science South Pole North Pole of magnetic phenomenon are the bases of entire electromagnetic systems of negative and positive electricity. In solar system the cycle of day and night (twins) balances the life. In family unit the twin of husband and wife stabilizes the system of progeny growth. This system of twins of polar forces is called अश्विनौ देवता Ashwinou Devta in Vedic terminology.
2. या सुरथा रथीतमोभा देवा दिविस्पृशा | अश्विना ता हवामहे || ऋ1.22.2

Bose in consultation with Robindra Nath Tagore is said to have refused to give his consent to patenting his achievement, by saying that knowledge was not for concealing but for being made universally available for welfare and progress of mankind.)

When knowledge about attributes – laws and properties- of all the seven physical manifestations of Nature viz.

(गोपा:) गोपालन से ही (अदाभ्य:) दोनों प्रकार के मानसिक और भौतिक व्याधियों, रोगादि कृमियों से हिंसित नहीं होता. शरीर , पृथ्वी और पर्यावरण नीरोगि और स्वस्थ रहते हैं. जब चित्त , शरीर और पर्यावरण स्वस्थ होते हैं तभी धर्म स्थापित होता है और विष्णु अपने तीन कदम रखता है. विष्णु के तीन कदम क्या हैं?
यज्ञो विष्णु: – यज्ञ ही विष्णु है . विष्णु के अर्थात यज्ञ के तीन कदम क्या हैं ? देवपूजा, संगतिकरण और दान बड़ों का आदर, बराबर वालों से प्रेम तथा छोटों को दया पूर्वक कुछ देना.
