There are some thousands of songs that narrate about the greatness of the herbs that is present in the Sathuragiri Mountain. If those were collected together and if researches were done, then the siddha medicine would have reached up to the first place in the medication world wide. I always worry that we have missed such a great opportunity. Even now it is not late. If the government of Tamilnadu and the people who are interested in the siddha medicine join hands, we can bring them to the notice of a huge number of people.
All the herbs which I was sharing since my last three posts are related to those in Sathuragiri Mountain only. As a continuation to that let us see about three more herbs today.
Vanapirami
This is present to the right of the vennaaval trees that I have mentioned in the previous post. This will be spread like a creeper. Its leaves are as thick as the leaves of amla tree. Pluck the herb on sunday by relieving its curses and crush its roots into powder. If we mix it with the ferment vinegar and drinking it for 30 days, we can attain kaaya siddhi.
Muppirandai
This herb is near to the vanapirami creeper. It will be like ordinary pirandai (square-stalked vine). Pluck this herb and make juice of it. Using this we can able to solidify mercury. Immediately mix solid mercury with naagam and naagam gets solidified. Take kendhi to the equal measure of mixture of both mercury and naagam, then mix all with the extract of muppirandai and do pudamiduthal. We will get sendhooram* and by eating it, we can attain kaaya siddhi.
Kuruvarikkatraalai
On the northern side of the Sathuragiri Mountain you can find this herb. It will be in the size of the thumb finger. It will grow to a height of 1.5 span. We can find lines across its body. Pluck this herb by relieving its curses. Crush the roots and extract the juice from it. Take a sheet of iron and dip it in this juice, it will turn into copper. Make it as sendhooram and eat to attain kaaya siddhi.
*Sendhooram – any chemical or metallic compound used medicinally
