Each one of the navamani has the capability of showering a unique colored rays. There are opinions that as these rays enters the body it makes the welfare of the body as well as mind.
Ruby gives out red colored rays, pearl gives out orange colored rays, topaz gives out blue colored rays, sardonyx gives out violet colored rays, emerald gives out green colored rays, diamond gives out light blue colored rays, lapis lazuli gives out light red colored rays, sapphire gives out dark voilet colored rays, coral gives out yellow colored rays.
The stones with these features and those without any damage only could cause the appropriate results.To identify the correct stone is a difficult task. Even the experted ones may make mistakes in choosing the right stone.
But Agathiyar has told the way of identifying the right stone a century ago in the book "Agathiyar Vaagadam".
Pearl :- If we put it into the milk without foam it will float
Emerald :- If we keep it in hand and go near to a horse it will sneeze
Ruby :- In front the light of a lamp it could be seen in red color
Diamond:- If we pierce a needle into the diamond it would not break.
Coral :- If we pierce the needle exactly at the center of the coral only it will get inserted.
Sardonyx :- If we put it into the cow's ghee it will smell like saffron
Topaz:- If we keep it on the stone that we use for rubbing sandal, it woud smell like lotus.
Lapis Lazuli :- If we put in the juice of green leaf it will turn into white color.
Sapphire :- If we put in the juice of green leaf it will glow in a particular color.
This informations gathered from the Agathiyar songs are very rare and here after you can also get benefited out of it and know its quality.
As a continuation to this, these navamanis could not be bought on all the days. There are certain restrictions to those also. In the next post we shall see all those details.
