The 20th century may be said to be made historic by 2 achievements, the bringing of Moon-rock from outer space,
and the publication of "Vymanika Sastra" from the unknown past. The Moon-rock is just rock, not a cluster of shining
pebbles from Kimberley of South Africa. But the "Vymanika Sastra" is a Cornucopia of precious formulas for the
manufacture of Aeroplanes, which should make Lindbergh, Rolls, Zeppelin, De Havilland, Tupolev, and Harold Gray of Pan
American, gape in astonishment, and if duly worked up, herald a new era of Aeroplane manufacture for the benefit of
Mankind!

Shaktyadhikaranam: The Power.
Maharshi Bharadwaaja:
?"Shaktayassapta" Sootra 1.
"The power sources are seven."
Bodhaananda Vritti:
In this chapter the motive power of the vimaana is explained. In the functioning of the vimaana, there are 7 distinct
operating forces. They are named udgamaa, panjaraa, sooryashaktyapa-karshinee or that which extracts solar power,
parashaktyaakarshinee or that which extracts opposite forces, a set of 12 shaktis or forces, kuntinee, and moolashakti
or primary force. At set spots in the vimaana, the motors which produce these 7 powers should be installed, duly wired
and equipped with springs and wheels, as prescribed.
It is said in "Yantra-sarvasva:"
"The seven kinds of powers which are required for the Vimaana are produced by 7 motors which are named tundila, panjara,
amshupa, apakarshaka, saandhaanika, daarpanika, and shaktiprasavaka. Each of these produces its specific power.
Thus tundilaa produces udgamaa shakti, panjaraa produces the panjaraa shakti, shaktipaa produces the power which sucks
solar power, apakarshaka produces the power which plucks the power of alien planes, sandhaana yantra produces the group
of 12 forces, daarpanikaa produces kuntinee shakti, and shakti-prasava yantra produces the main motive power.
Shownaka-sootra also says:
"There are seven sources of power of the vimaana: fire, earth, air, sun, moon, water and sky. The seven kinds of powers
are named udgamaa, panjaraa, solar heat absorber, alien force absorber, solar electric dozen, kuntinee, and primary force."
p. 29
"Soudaaminee-kalaa" says:
Ma, la, ya, ra, sa, va, na constitute the seven vimanic forces. Ma is udgamaa, la is panjaraa, ya is solar heat absorber,
ra is the solar dozen, sa is alien force absorber, va is kuntinee, and na is primary force.
Their actions are thus defined in "Kriyaa-saara":
"The ascent of the vimana is by udgamaa shakti. Its descent is by panjaraa-shakti. Solar heat absorbing is by
shaktyapakarshinee. Alien force restraining is by parashakty snatcher. Spectacular motion of the vimaana is by the
vidyud-dwaadashaka-shakti. All these various activities are by the prime force of the vimana."
Vidyuddwaadashaka is thus explained in "Soudaaminee-kalaa":
"The spectacular motions of the vimaana are of 12 kinds. Their motive forces are also 12. The motions and the forces are,
proceeding, shuddering, mounting, descending, circling, speeding, circumambulating, side-wise motion, receding,
anti-clockwise motion, remaining motionless, and performing miscellaneous motions."
Maharshi Bharadwaaja:
? "Shaktayah-pancha -iti-Narayanaha." Sootra 2.
"Narayana holds that the forces are five only, and not twelve."
Bodhaananda Vritti:
Five forces are generated by the yantra or dynamo called Sadyojaata, and they produce all the spectacular motions of
the vimana.
Says "Shakti sarvasva":
"The motions of a vimaana are five, Chaalana, Gaalana, Panjaraprerana, Vakraapasarpana, and Spectacular manoeuvring."
Maharshi Bharadwaaja:
? "Chitrinyeveti sphotaayanah." Sootra 3.
Sphotaayana holds that chitrinee is the sole shakti.
Bodhaananda Vritti:
Sphotaayana declares that the force called chitrinee shakti is the one which enables the vimana to perform spectacular
manoeuvres.
p. 30
[paragraph continues] "Shakti-sarvasva" says that both from experience and scientific knowledge Sphotaayana propounds the
view that 32 various kinds of motions of the vimaana are solely by the power of Chitrinee-shakti.
"Kriyaa-saara " also states that Chitrinee force of the 17th quality is solely responsible for the 32 types of aeronautical
motions.
Maharshi Bharadwaaja:
? "Tadantarbhaaavaat Saptaiveti" Sootra 4.
"The shaktis are 7 only, and include all others"
Bodhaananda Vritti:
Out of the five forces produced by the sadyojaata mechanism, panjaraa shakti is the most important. The other shaktis
are incidental to it, just as sparks are incidental to fire. Chaalana and other motions may therefore be said to result
from panjaraa shakti.
Says "Shaktibeeja": "It is by the panjaraa shakti generated by sadyojaata yantra that the chalana and other shaktis
branch out. "
"Shakti kousthubha" also says, "From the panjaraa shakti produced by sadyojaata, emanate the chaalama and other 4 shaktis."
Thus since the other shaktis branch out from panjaraa shakti, they may be said to be in essence identical with it.
That panjaraa and chitrinee are included in the seven shaktis which have been enumerated by Maharshi Bharadwaaja.
Hence there cannot be said to be any conflict of opinions. Some even hold the view that each one of the seven shaktis
is capable of producing all the 32 motions of the vimaana. But since each of the several motions of the plane is
definitely ascribed to a particular kind of force, it would be incorrect to hold that one force could be responsible
for the whole gamut of motions. Any attempt to give practical effect to such a theory would prove disastrous.
Therefore the right conclusion is that the seven forces are the true cause of the 32 kinds of aerial activities of the
vimaana.

A trip by vailx could never prove so monotonous as a journey in even the fastest of ocean steamships so often is to-day.
The variety of scenery, the wide views possible, for altitude was dependent wholly on pleasure, the external cold being
unheeded by people who sat in a parlor warmed by means

from Navaz and furnished with air of the proper density by the same Night-Side forces--all this tended to prevent ennui.
Then too, the rapid transit changed the aspect of things beneath so fast that the spectator looking back-wards gazed upon
a dissolving view. As an aside, the currents derived from the Night-Side of Nature permitted the attainment of the same
speed as that of the diurnal rotation of the earth, e. g.: supposing we were at an altitude of ten miles, and the time
the instant of the sun's meridian; at that meridian moment we could remain indefinitely, bows on, while the earth revolved
beneath, at approximately seventeen miles every minute. Or, the reverse direction keys could be set, and our vailx would
speed away from where it was meridian on the surface beneath, at the same almost frightful rate, frightful to one unused
to it, as my reader is now, but one day will not be, if, as I hope, he or she will live to see vailxi rediscovered.
Nor need the life be a very long one ere then.
While we had such preventives of ennui, we lacked not commoner means of enjoyment. We had our naima,
in the mirrors and vibrators of which our friends, however distant, could appear in image of form and of voice,
lifesized and with undiminished vocal volume. The salons of the great passenger vailxa had libraries, musical instruments,
and potted plants, amongst the flowers of which birds similar to the modern domestic canary darted about.
READING:2157-1
Entity was in the Atlantean land, during those periods when the second destruction had brought so many of the islands,
and when the Poseidian land was the greater in power; when there were the meetings called for those of many lands, to
determine means or manners in which there would be the control or handling of the animals that were destructive to many
of the lands. The entity then acted in the capacity of one who guided the ships that sailed both in the air and under
water; also was the maker of that which produced the elevators and the connecting tubes that were used by compressed
air and steam and the metals in their emanations. All of these were a part of the entity's experience and development,
especially as to things controlled by the facet for the radiation activity from the sun upon metals, and the control of
such, as well as the manner of airships through that sojourn.
