BARLEY-CORNS

Symbolic of Wisdom and Love,— the food of the soul.

"You are clarified butter and honey, O ye barley-corns; you are water and ambrosia. May you efface whatever sinful acts I have committed. Sins committed by words, by acts, and by evil thoughts."-Institutes of Vishnu, Ch. 48, 18.

Signifying; may Love and Wisdom and celestial Truth, purify my soul in expression, in deed, and in thought! He throws the barley-corns in with, 'Thou art barley (yava), keep thou (yavaya) from us the haters, keep from us the enemies!'"-Sata. Bráh., III, 7, 1, 4.

The spiritual mind receives and transmits the vibrations of wisdom and love which are to rescue the soul from captivity to the desires (enemies).
