註釋This study examines the Three-In-One Structure of Consciousness as it is reflected or mirrored in the Rig vedic literature in general, and in the Purusha sukta (Hymn to the Self) found in the Tenth Mandala of the Rig veda, and also examines the relationship between consciousness and the consciously controlled and safe development of technology. Obstacles which must be overcome to reach a scientific, universal understanding of the veda are enumerated: (1) the complexity of the vedic Sanskrit language, (2) Cultural prejudice of the past and present, (3) the time period in which the study takes place, (4) Failure to recognize the overwhelming ontological significance of the vedic literature, which the study identifies as samhita, or wholeness/togetherness. the Three-In-One Structure of Consciousness is described as: (1) the value of the observer (rishi), (2) the value of the process of observation (devata) and (3) the value of the observed object (chhandas). the study then asserts that these three values of consciousness are unified in the vedic concept of samhita. Next, the orderly functioning of the Three-In-One Structure of Consciousness is attributed to the infinite organizing power of Natural Law (ritam), which controls the evolution of both manifest consciousness and technology. Three examples of consciousness-based technological achievements are presented: (1) the originating genius of Nikola Tesla, (2) the cosmic cinema analogy of physicist Walter Russell, and (3) the Maharishi Technology of the Unified Field. A final peroration concludes the study in which the sacrificial figure of Purusha serves as a conceptual and experiential model or paradigm for the success of future technological development.
