Five Senses Of Human Body Are Sight, Hearing, Touch, Taste, And Smell. These Are Activated By The Following Actions In The Temple:
The positive energy in the temple is absorbed properly only if you ensure that all five senses are activated in your body while you are in the temple. Also the place of worship is said to be pleased only if your five senses are pleased.
1. Ringing The Temple Bell When You Enter The Temple – Hearing Sense Activated
People who are visiting the temple should and will Ring the bell before entering the inner temple (Garbhagudi, Garbhagriha, Moolasthanam or womb-chamber) where the main idol is placed. These bells are made in such a way that when they produce a sound it creates a unity in the Left and Right parts of our brains. The moment we ring the bell, it produces a sharp and enduring sound which lasts for minimum of 7 seconds in echo mode. The duration of echo is good enough to activate all the seven healing centres in our body. This results in emptying our brain from all negative thoughts.
This bell sound is also absorbed by the idol and vibrated within the Garbhagudi for a certain period of time.
2. Lighting Camphor In Front Of Idol – Sight Sense Activated
The inner core of the temple is usually dark where the idol is placed. You usually close your eyes to pray and when you open your eyes you should see the camphor which was lit to do the Aarthi in front of the idol. This light seen inside the dark activates your sight sense.
The other reason of lighting camphor is for the idol to absorb the heat and vibrate within the Garbhagudi for certain period.
3. Put Your Hands Over The Camphor Flames And Then Touch Eyes – Touch Sense Activated
Once the camphor is brought to you after offering the prayer, you usually put your hands over the camphor to make your hands warm and then you touch your eyes with your warm hands. This action assures your touch sense is active.
4. Offering Flowers To God At The Temple – Smell Sense Activated

The fragrance of the flower, camphor and instance sticks all together have the strong essence to keep your smell sense active and pleasant giving calmness to the mind.
