Vayu (Air) and Agni (Fire)

Vayu manifests from Akasha; agni manifests from both akasha and vayu. Thus, vayu is fifty percent of akasha and, agni is one-third akasha and one-third vayu. These elements are generated from the creative power of the syllables like a+k='ak' (agni, where 'a' the potent energy joining k takes the form g to create fire), va+y+u (vayu/air). Similarly, 'jal' (water) is formed when the syllable 'l' (the water principle) is joined ja, becomes jal (gross liquid form of water is created! Thus, the three elements (bhuti - air, fire and water come into existence from space (akasha), rather, appear as if coming one out of one another! One may ask, "How does one come out of the other? Well, it seems, the other was already there before come out of it, as if One comes out of zero, nothing and two comes out of one by one becoming one more! However, it is stated in the scriptures that the syllable  'a' is brahmn (bruhat), vast that holds everything, Akasha! It is 'akshara brahma'The syllable a is potent enough to create everything! When brahmn the vast  becomes reduced (as if Shiva desired)(kanchuki) to a concise form or compressed form to the size of a small particle, condensed into a bindu (a point) iota, or 'ion', it becomes consonant 'k'. Thus, a becomes k and together 'k+a' in the process is generated enormous heat due to compression, condensation like the potential energy (a) converted into kinetic energy (k). Thus, we find heat, fire, agni emanating along with vayu ('sa' or 's+ha') making it A+ka=sha (Akasha).Thus, Akasha (Space) contained vayu and agni. In other words, the principal elements of air and fire emanated in space! Interestingly, the scientists also speak in the same tome and have given the names of the persons who discovered it. The invisible particle that was all energy without mass discovered by the French scientist Fermi came to be known as fermion and the particle that obtained mass from it due to condensation as discovered by Bose and Einstein came to be known as bosons! Both are 'ion' (eye on) since their eyes fell on it? Any wonder how the material made its appearance from almost a state of nothing! All the sub-atomic particles like the Guam, Electrons, Protons, Neutrons, quarks are the energy particles!
   Rk Veda proclaimed everything is Agni (Fire) 'Energy'. The 'tribhandu' (three brothers) are surya, soma, and anala, different forms of agni. The Sun, the Moon, the Earth, and all that we find here, are the forms of Energy. There are the coal, oil,natural gas that are flammable! There is fire hidden in the dry sticks, stones (just not coal but radio-active minerals included), atomic energy, water power (hydel and wave energy), air (Wind energy), and everything that can be named can be harnessed! We are yet to develop the full potential of huge waste of bio-fuels?
    This is not all. The process of creation continued. There appeared water and earth from these space, air and fire! Water, as we all know is compound of Hydrogen and Oxygen that existed in air. Vayu (air) contained the life-force prana (oxygen) and hydrogen was already there in the Sun (agni / Fire). The alphabets 'sa' and 'ha' (of A ka sha) represent the Life-force as our own in-breath and out-breath! Thus, we the humans breathing and living here are also the product of this chain process of creation and our body is made of all these pancha mahabhuta (five elements - the space, air, fire, water and earth). The alphabet 'ka' also represents the jiva or prani.
