The Ether or Akaash Element

What happens when you wake up early morning and discover in your garden: that some dewdrops are shining brightly over blossoms of roses and lilies...? Some birds are chirping gaily over tree-tops...? Some small creatures :- playing hide and seek eg;squirrels  and caterpillars? The Nature's creations reflecting awakening of the psychic elements...
This is how one can discover the Akaash Element :Ether or 'Brahm tattva' !
When one is practising some yogaasana exercises daily...one can feel that the 'akaash' element is birthed in the tiny cellular spaces of your body.
Whenever your mind is calm and you take deep breaths in a systematic manner--this replenishes Akaash element in yourself.
While inhaling what you take in is not merely air but which is called 'prana' or life-force in the Indian lore. Akaash element is right there in your being ,then.
If along with proper breathing  you learn how to take care of your garden: i.e. the green plants you have been planting with tender care so that your home may be filled with abundance of oxygenated 'prana' ! Gradually , you will discover that the 'akaash 'prana / life-force fills up your surroundings...
Therefore ,one can interpret this fact as whenever farmers tend to or take  care of plants /crops/ trees/ :-they are being  replenished with this abundance of 'prana' / Akash element sub-consciously or consciously.
Why do people love to go hill stations during summer holidays : because in hills/ mountains one can 'absorb' /experience this Akaash element abundantly...!!!
