Desalination Plants ...

Jai Gurudev !!


Desalination is the process by which salt and minerals are removed from salt water , so that it can be used for drinking and irrigation purposes .  In regions where there are no Fresh water bodies or where there are no sufficient rains , huge desalination plants are set up to convert the sea water into Fresh water. We can see many such desalination plants in Gulf region . The desalination plant involves multilevel distillation processes to desalinate the water to a higher degree.

Though the man made Desalination plants have gained popularity in recent years and the cost involved in the construction and maintenance are enormous , we can see the natural Desalination plants spread across widely especially in the tropical regions near the ocean , in beaches , near rivers and in other places where there are plenty of rainfalls and sunlight . 
The Natural desalination plants are a boon to the humanity . In India we find their extensive cultivation in Kerela . As one can easily guess , it's the coconut tree , which is the subject of discussion.
 

We can see the Coconut Tree as one such natural desalination plant . It's highly tolerant of salt water .The coconut tree taps the water from the ground and  just purifies it into clean and sweet coconut water and stores it  inside the coconut , which we relish drinking as tender coconuts. It cools our body system and is very good for our health too , a prescriptional medicine for many diseases also.

  Having discussed of the Man-made and natural desalination plants , it  brings to our mind  , a wonderful comparison to the desalination plants  , that is quite amazing.
It's none other than us Humans .
As humans , we are so much stuck in the material world and we are not aware of own consciousness .And there comes something called as the Knowledge Factor , which acts as the Coconut tree and lifts us to a blissful state from the state of agony and misery . The Knowledge of our self wipes away our miseries, gets us rid off the ignorance ; purifies us and keeps us ever happy . The Knowledge or awareness that one develops during his lifetime can be termed as something very precious and never lost births after births .
