Attaining motherhood

Author: தோழி / Labels: ,

The belief that attaining motherhood will make a complete women is very strong in our society. For every newly married woman, all her relatives are mostly concerned and expected about attaining this motherhood.

If for the same girl there is any problem in attaining motherhood, then the world without any concern about her feelings they will label her as an "infertile woman". It is better to know that this has slightly changed now-a-days.

Now let us see the Siththars view about attaining motherhood and their solutions for problems pertaining to it.

In real life there is no point of infertility at all says Agathiyar. Also he says about the problem in women's body and the consequent results.

"இசைந்ததோர் பெண்மலடு எங்கு மில்லை 
isainthathoar penmaladu engu millai
எதுனால் மலபான சேதி கேளு கேளு
ethunaal mabalaana saethi kaelu kaelu
அசைந்திருக்கும் பேயினால் பூதத் தாலும் 
asainthirukkum paeyinaal poothath thaalum
அடிவயிறு நொந்துவரும் வாய்வி னாலும்
adivayiru nonthuvarum vaaivi naalum
பிசைந்து கெர்ப்பப் பூச்சியினால் கிரகத்தாலும்
pisainthu kerppap poochiyinaal kirakaththaalum
பிணி நோவு மத்தத்தால் வாத சூலையாலுந்
pini noavu maththaththaal vaatha thalaiyaalun
துசங்கட்டிக் கல்வியினால் பூலவா துங்கித்
thusangattik kalviyinaal poolavaa thungith
துலங்காமல் கெர்ப்பமில்லைசொல்லக் கேளே
thulangaamal kerppamillaisollak kaelu"

- அகத்தியர் (Agathiyar)

There is nobody who is infertile in this world. There will be certain obstacles in attaining maternity due to the following reasons i.e., devil, the gastric that causes pain in the stomach, the effects due to the movement of the planets, other diseases, paralysis related diseases. These can be resolved says Siththars and have told their remedies.

Grind the roots of the plant nagakalli, take a measure of it equivalent to the size of fruit of punai tree and add a measure of cow's butter equivalent to an areca-nut and eat it for three days since the day we take headbath after completion of periods and indulge sex for three days then one can attain maternity. In those three days avoid tamarind, salt, smoking and eat food with cow's milk says Agathiyar.

Take neem flowers, bark of moon seed plant, cyprus andcrush them and add 336 ml of ghee and boil it. Eat in the morning and evening for three days since the day of completion of periods and indulge in sex for three days. There is no restriction in terms of food for this method.

Take equal measures of asafoetida, rock salt, bark of tamarind tree and grind them and roll it to the size of a fruit of punai tree  and eat it for three days since the day we take headbath after completion of periods and indulge sex for three days then one can attain maternity. With this the gastric and the insects that causes pain in the stomach will get resolved.There is no restriction in terms of food for this method.

Also they have told the remedies for those who are unable to attain maternity due to the adverse effects of the movements planets but taking into consideration the length of the post I wind up the topic with this. 

In the next post I shall share about the remedies that the Siththars have told for the ladies who have attained maternity.
