Abstract: The study of the spiritual life and souls protocol using the Buddhist meditation approach for growth of chakras and cosmic power control, healing, and therapeutic treatment of healthy symptoms the chakras 1–7 were found in the body cavity and directly related to the nervous system with meditation absorption level 4 by using the Anapanasati practice, but not the highest for meditation method. Buddhist meditation is divided into nine levels, but only eight levels have the ability to grow with the common people by using Kasina practice. Kasina practice consisted of meditation devices and was divided into 10 subjects. However, in terms of growth and understanding, the Kasina meditation was extremely difficult to obtain. So, this paper aims to propose the Space Kasina for growth at meditation absorption level 8 (Treasure 8) and to describe the condition feature.

Keywords: Chakras, meditation, Spiritual life, Anapanasati, Space Kasina, cosmic power.

Abstract: The proximate composition was carried out by standard methods. The values are all in percentages.

Abstract: The genus Kloeckeraspora Niehaus (1932) was not accepted for a long time. This paper has tried to reinstate the genus. Two phylogenetic trees were constructed for three Kloeckeraspora and four representative Hanseniaspora species. In addition, the pair-wise sequence similarities were calculated. In the phylogeneetic tree based on the 26S rRNA gene D1/D2 domain sequences derived from the neighbour-joining method, the three species of the genus Kloeckeraspora represented an extremely long branch. The calculated pair-wise sequence similarities were abnormally low (86.2 - 88.5%) between the two genera. Incidentally, the sequence similarity between Vanderwatozyma polyspora and Saccharomyces cerevisiae used as references was 94.0%. The genus Kloeckeraspora should be unequivocally accepted and retained. However, the two genera were not yet perfectly taxonomic homogeneous-natured.

Keywords: Kloeckeraspora osmophila; Kloeckerasora vineae; Kloeckeraspora occidentalis; Hanseniaspora valvyensis; Hanseniaspora uvarum; Hanseniaspora guilliermondii.

Abstract: Microbial degradation is nature's primary scavenger, responsible for recycling most natural waste materials into harmless compounds. Given an increase in particular synthetic compounds such as various chlorinated compounds produced by the chemical industry for use as herbicides, pesticides, industrial solvents, and coolants. The microorganisms try to develop new genes, especially for simple, low-chlorinated compounds that code for enzymes that use the chlorinated compounds as the main component. An understanding of how new biodegradable genes evolve in nature is therefore of paramount importance to improve the rate and scale of biodegradable processes. The various parameters affecting both natural and selective evolutionary processes are discussed. Microorganisms and plants have been extensively studied for their role in the biotransformation of such hazardous pollutants into non-toxic chemicals, with a wide range of biotechnological implications. The bioremediation of metal-contaminated sites is understood as the molecular mechanics of metal accumulation. Contamination of water and food with various types of chemicals and metals such as nickel, copper, gold, lead, arsenic, cadmium, zinc, chromium, and mercury has been widely reported. Human activities such as metal smelting and mining, and the disposal of agricultural and industrial effluents release these metals, which can be harmful to human health when ingested in amounts that an organism cannot handle. Bioremediation is another form of waste management those other organisms can use and reuse as a result of the biological waste recycling mechanism. Various chemical wastes and hazardous materials from around the world are heavily involved in degradation, immobilization, eradication, and detoxification through the all-encompassing actions of microorganisms. Various applications of microorganisms in the bioremediation of hazardous pollutants were presented in detail in this chapter.

Keywords: Microorganism, Chlorinated, Pesticides, Herbicides, Industrial solvents.

Abstract: Inflammation is a complex mechanism used by the body to promote healing and restore normal function after an injury. The crude alkaloid extract of Citrus aurantium leaves was tested for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. The extract's anti-inflammatory activity was assessed using cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibition assays. The antioxidant activity of the extract was assessed using DPPH (2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS (2, 2′-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) assays. The result showed that inhibition of COX-1 (IC₅₀ = 57.27 ± 0.36 μg/mL) and COX-2 (IC₅₀ = 54.35 ± 0.54 μg/mL) was within the range of 23.31% to 60.12% and 15.80 to 43.45 % respectively. The inhibition of LOX (IC₅₀ = 61.20 ± 0.34 μg/mL) was within the range from 13.21% to 47.79% at concentrations ranging from 20 to 100 μg/mL. The extract demonstrated good antioxidant activity by scavenging DPPH (IC₅₀ = 42.33 ± 0.42μg/mL) and ABTS (IC₅₀ = 52.31± 0.22μg/mL) radicals in a concentration - dependent manner. The extract's IC₅₀ values were comparable to those of standard drugs (Ibuprofen, Celecoxid and BHT). The alkaloid extract of C. aurantium leaves had good anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. These findings suggest that C. aurantium leaves can be a promising natural remedy for treating inflammation and oxidative stress related conditions.

Abstract: Shisha smoking is a pattern of smoking, publicly considered as a harmless entertainment. This study was aimed at assessing the lung function in 40 shisha smokers and 40 non-shisha smokers. The lung function of each subject was assessed using an electronic spirometer. Subjects were categorized into 4 subgroups. 2 subgroups for shisha smokers and 2 subgroups for non-smokers (males and females respectively). The outcome of the present study on lung function indices of the shisha smokers were all found to be marginally different when compared to those of non-shisha smokers. All the lung function parameters were comparatively depressed in the male subjects. These results show that shisha smoking can be associated with outbreaks in either of or both of restrictive or obstructive pulmonary diseases.

Keywords: Hookah, Shisha, lung function, male, female.
