I have heard from some that this is an accepted exception but I have very serious doubts. A: Shastra says "bone" is impure, BUT, Conch Shell (Indian Turbinella Pyrum) is super-pure, even to bath the Deities. Shastra doesn't say ANY SHELL or EVERY SHELL is pure, it's only Indian Shank (Turbinella Pyrum) that is pure. And these come in two types, normal left side opening AND special right side opening (Valampuri Dakshinavarti Turbinella Pyrum). Both are ruled by Goddess Lakshmi. It is not required to have right-side opening. Left side (normal) opening Shank is perfect for puja. And Lakshmi Shank is even better than perfect.BUT, common empty Lightning Whelk, with no internal formation and no ridges in the conch cavity - this is a bogus non pure shell. Its a fact that so many Iskcon temples use the non-conch shell in a frenzy of mass ignorance. And they're doing puja with an impure non-conch shell, simply because they have all been hood winked by the Indian con men. I myself was hoodwinked back in 1978 and got a lightning Whelk in Sri Lanka. But that was long ago, and I'm a bit wiser now. But it is so shameful that Iskcon temples use the wrong shell it's embarrassing to be associated with such foolishness. Only fools will take dog stool to be same as cow dung just because they have something in common. And in Iskcon temples they all proudly display the fact that they have been cheated on a bogus Conch.Fact: The left or right side opening Turbinella Pyrum Indian Conch - with 3 to 7 ridges in the conch cavity, is the ONLY Shank that is Vedic. All the rest is Maya. The normal Conch is very low price, even less than the lightning whelks, and is correct for puja. This means the Iskcon temples are over paying and getting fooled at the same time. Plus doing puja with a non-Vedic shell.For More Info REFER http://www.navaratna-museum.info/Shells.html__________Message: 3 Wed, 14 Dec 2005 20:53:57 -0000"Richard Shaw-Brown II" Subject: ZEN MONK JOKE (it's just a joke!)A Zen monk in New York stops in the street and orders a $1. hot dog. He gives the seller a $10 note, which the hot dog man puts in his pocket. Finally the Zen Monk says, "Hey, where's my CHANGE???" The hot dog seller replies, "CHANGE comes from within!"

They claim, "WE ARE THE SOURCE!" <---The SOURCE!?? So I thought they must be located in Burma, or Thailand or Sri Lanka!?? But, in fact they are located in exotic, lush, tropical NEW YORK! The Source is New York? If you buy from them you're paying American prices. What gem do you want? We ARE located in the Kingdom of Siam, which IS the SOURCE.Best rgds,Richardsacred-objects, "prasanna" wrote:>> Sri Richard Ji> I found this websites which says it sells orginal gems stone,if you can > guide me on this.Site is given below> www.thenaturalsapphirecompany.com/> Regards> Prasanna>__________Message: 7 Thu, 15 Dec 2005 12:33:40 ESTalphanov2 (AT) aol (DOT) comSubject: New York sapphire websiteIn my possession I have a beautiful yellow sapphire double Jupiter talisman that Richard made for me. I also have yellow helidor earrings to match (Richard did an amazing job finding colors that matched). All the gems in my talismans are unheated and super clean.I, too, looked at the New York sapphire website. When I would blow up the pictures, I would easily see the "silk" in the sapphires on the New York website.What I received from Richard is far superior to anything I found on that or any other website. People who have seen my talismans have been truly impressed with the quality and workmanship of Richard's craftsmen and women.By the way, when I first started investigating Vedic gemology and before I found Richard, I did a "do it yourself" gem prescription and ended up with a blue sapphire. So I found one on ebay. Bought it. Filled with "silk". Then I found Richard and discovered that blue sapphire was definitely NOT for me. He was very thorough in his explanation of why the yellow sapphire was best for me.I am grateful to Richard for making all his knowledge and skill available for us.Warmest regards,Ann in Coral Springs, Florida[This message contained attachments]__________Message: 8 Thu, 15 Dec 2005 17:15:41 -0000"Richard Shaw-Brown II" about amber - PierreDear Pierre,Here is the New Age view of amber:The Healing Power of AmberAmber: Composed of fossilized resin that formed millions of years ago from the sap of primeval trees, often contains mummified insects or plant matter within which add to its connection to early life on this planet, highly prized for its talismanic powers, ranges in color from a pale yellow to orange or dark brown.
