Thanks for the details.

But it's been told thousands of years ago in Rigveda, it claims there are 147, Among 7 colored sun-rays, each consists 21 each. And it tells that using sun-rays in a proper manner any matter/element can be transformed into any. It's exactly on what Albert Einstein was working.

The spectrum of knowledge is vast...full of mystery which, I'm afraid, modern science never could explore.
