KINGDOM OF SITHTHARS

Keezhkkaai Nelli or Keezhaa Nelli - Phyllanthus Niruri

Siththars gave us many kaya kalpas in order to keep our body free from ageing, hunger and disease which, ultimately make a person to live longer and younger. Generally, it is two types viz, medicinal kaya kalpa and yoga kaya kalpa. In that series, we have already discussed lots and lots of medicinal kaya kalpa, which is available in this link. Likewise, let us see another easy kaya kalpa in this post.

Karuvoorar, in his ‘Vaathakaaviyam’ book, gave us the information concerning keezhkkai nelli kalpa in his poem as follows:

பூசமுடன் குருவாரங் கூடும் நாளில்

poosamudan kuruvaarang koodum naalil

     புகழ் பெறவே கற்பமது கொள்வாயப்பா

     pukazh peravae karpamathu kolvaayappaa

     வளம்பெறவே நிழல்தனிலே வுலர்த்திக் கொண்டு

     valamperavae nizhalthanilae vularthik kondu

      யாகுமிது கற்பமுறை யிதுதான் சொன்னேன்

      yaakumithu karpamurai yithuthaan sonnaen.

சொன்னேன்நான் பத்தியங்கள் நெய்யும் பாலும்

       சோறுமல்லல் மற்றொன்று மாகா தப்பா

       soarumallal matronru maakaa thappaa

mannanae araivarudang kondaayaakil

       மகாகுட்டம் பதினெட்டுந் தீர்த்தே போகும்

       makaakuttam pathinettun theerththae poakum

நன்னயமா யொருவருடங் கொண்டா யானால்

       நல்லமதி புத்தியது மயங்கா தப்பா

      nallamathi puththiyathu mayangkaa thappaa

      இருநூறு வயதுவரை வலுமை தானே

      irunooru vayathuvarai valumai thaanae.

One should take the fresh root of keezhkkaai nelli and should grind it well after drying it in the shadows. Then mix the grinded root powder with equal amount of sugar, ghee and honey and make them as balls to the size of pea aubergine.

One should start in taking this herbal pill on the Thursday combined with pushya nakshatra day. On continuous intake of this pill for 6 months, 18 types of kushtam (leprosy) which is otherwise called as mahaa kustam, will get cured. Further, Siththar Karuvoorar says, on continuous intake for 1 year, a person become like 16 year old  young  with greater knowledge and can live for 200 years with good strength.

During these days, one should take only restricted food viz, milk, rice and ghee are allowed and other foods are prohibited from intake.

Simple kaya kalpa. Isn’t it?

Our human body is an assortment of five basic elements. For the stability and working of our human body, air and food are highly crucial. Our inner organs and glands segregate the nutrients and minerals from the inhaled food and give it to body appropriately and finally wastes get excreted out. However, each glands and organs gets instigated by the taste of our inhaled food. Each and every taste initiates certain organs to function accordingly.

With this wide knowledge, our ancestors include arusuvai (six types of taste) food in their daily life. Unfortunately, we denied all these food habit practice in this modernized environment. It is really an inappropriate and sad thing where we failed to respect our ancestors food practice which composed of starting from sweet  and ending with thaambulam* which is composed of bitterness and thuvarpu. 

In this series, this post is about bitterness taste (ignored nowadays) kalpa named neem kalpa. Siththar Agathiyar describes the pride and importance of neem tree as follows;

வரிசையாய் சமாதிசெய்தா ரெந்தை யய்யா

varisaiyaai samaathiseythaa renthai yayyaa

       வாராது விஷங்களெல்லாஞ் செப்பி னாரே

       vaaraathu vishangalellaanj seppi naarae.

செப்பினார் வேம்பினுட பெருமை யெல்லாம்

       தேவிசொ ல்லக்கேட்டே னென்றார் 

       thaeviso llakkaette nenraar 

ஒப்பிலே வேம்புக்கு மேலே கற்பம்

oppilae vaembukku maelae karpam

      உலகத்தி லில்லையென்று உரைத்தார் பாரு

      ulakaththi lillaiyenru uraiththaar paaru

தப்பில்லா வேம்புண்ணக் கசக்கும் பாரு

thappillaa vaempunnak kasakkum paaru    

      சர்க்கரைபோ லினிக்கமட்டுஞ் சாதிக்கலாம் பார்

      sarkkaraiyoa linikkamattunj saathikkalaam paar

      அழகான மன்மதன்போ லாகும் பாரே

      azhakaana manmathanpoa laakum paarae.

Many Siththars noted the procedure of making kaya kapa using this prestigious neem. However, let 

us see the simple one given by Siththar Karuvooraar in his book “Karuvooraar Vaathakaaviyam” as follows.

One should take and eat the very watery and healthy neem leaf on the morning of Pushya or Mrigashirsha nakshatra of Tamil month Kaarthigai. The leaf should be in inhaled in every morning continuously for 27 days which makes the person unaffected even from snake poison. Rather, if a snake bites the person, it will die off. In this regard, if one inhaled neem leaf for a month makes him free from leprosy related 18 diseases and even devils and demons will not come nearer to him.

Karuvoorar say, on inhaling this neem leaf powder of verukadi* amount along with honey for 6 months continuously, one should get free from white hair and cataract and can also lives long youthful life. And no more food restrictions are said for this kaya kapa.

Let us see you with awful topic in upcoming post.

I have already discussed various kalpa in my previous posts. However, many people request to share about simple form of kalpa. Let us see very simple pepper kalpa which is taken from the book “Therayyar Kaapiyam” in today’s post.

For this kalpa, 192 best quality peppers are needed. First day start with 1 pepper, second day 2 peppers, third day 3 pepper, similarly increase the amount till reaches 7 peppers on seventh day in empty mouth and grind it well and swallow it completely.

Then decrease the amount on eighth day as 6 peppers and consecutively decrease the number of pepper till it reaches 1 pepper on thirteenth day and again increase and decrease for each consecutive seven days. Continue this intake process for 48 days.

On continuous intake of this kalpa for 48 days, it will make the body strength and luminous. Moreover it also increase the life time.

How to eat this pepper? There lies the secret of this kalpa.

We can eat at morning or evening and one should not eat anything 3 hrs before this pepper intake. And one should avoid the liquor, non-vegetarian food and copulation.

Easy kalpa process right!!

Another thing is, one can get sweet voice by eating pepper powder mixed with honey. 

With a pinch of pepper powder add necessary normal sugar (brown colour) and eat it. This will cure bile related diseases and will increase your hunger.

Theraiyar says that, by boiling pepper as drinking water, the intake of it will equalize vali, azhal, aiya related disesses and other severe diseases. Boil the pepper water and allow to  shrink it to the ratio of 1:8.

The information about the rare and wonderful herbs in the Sathuragiri Mountain continues in this post also. As there are many other important information to share about the Sathuragiri Mountain, I thought to finish this series already. But as there is little very important information that is to be shared, I will share them and then finish this series. You can find certain important information about the Sathuragiri Mountain which you never heard of.

Let us continue about the herbs that are present in the Sathuragiri Mountain.

Potralaikkarippaan

If we go to the south side from the kuruvarikkatraalai herb that I mentioned in the previous post, you can find this herb at a distance an arrow can travel. Its fruit will look like pepper. If we crush its leaves with hand, you will feel a kind of burning sensation in hands. If we mix that juice with the arsenics and do pudamiduthal, then itwill result as sendhooram*. If we apply that sendhooram, we can attain kaaya siddhi.

Udhiravaengai

These are found in adequate at the forest of Kalangi muni. It will look like vaengai tree and its bottom will be black in color. If we poke this tree you get milk in red color. That milk will be helpful to make effects on the metals. Add udhiravaengai’s milk to that effected metal and melt it. It will change into gold. If we do pudamiduthal to the gold, it will form as sendhooram. If we eat that sendhooram for a week, we can attain kaaya siddhi.

Saayavirutcham

In the northern side of the Yugimuni’s forest we can find an elevation of mud. Across that area, we can find this herb. It is also named as Nizharkaandhan. Its shadow does not fall on ground. It is in the color of ash and leaves look like the leaves of poon tree. The fruit will be like suranda vellarikkai. If we remove the bark of the tree, we will get milk in blue color. If we add the milk to the mercury and do suriyapudam, mercury will become solid. Take it and make sendhooram out of it.  Add ghee to that sendhooram and consume it for 48 days to attain kaaya siddhi.

Senthaadupaavai

If we go to the northern side from the Saayavirutcham herb that I mentioned above in the post, we can find this herb. It looks like kuththukkarai plant. Its leaf look like the leaf of sammatti tree. If we take its juice and mercury and melt it, mercury will be soidified. Take this solid mercury and dip in the milk of this tree for seven days and then do pudamiduthal. This results in the formation of sendhooram and add it with the cow’s ghee and consume for a week to attain kaaya siddhi.

With this the post, the rare herbs in the Sathuragiri Mountain series comes to an end. In the next post we shall meet with another interesting information about Sathuragiri Mountain.

*Sendhooram – any chemical or metallic compound used medicinally

Translated by சந்தியா

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.

The information about the rare herbs of Sathuragiri Mountain continues in this post also. 

Vennaaval

In the most of the trees seen in the western side of the Sathuragiri Mountain, Vennaaval virutcham  is one important tree among them. Its flower, fruit will be white in color. Remove the upper layers of the bark and take the inner layers and make kuzhith thailam out of it. If we rub that thailam on the slightly heated copper sheet for 40 times it will turn into silver. If we change that silver to sendhooram* and mix with the powder of the vennaava tree bark. Eat 488 mg of that powder six times a day for three days. Then we can attain kaaya siddhi.

Kanaierumai Virutcham

In the Sathuragiri Mountain if we walk towards west of the Nandeeswarar ashram for a while we can find this tree. It will look like South Indian mahua tree. Its fruit will be round in shape. If anybody stands under the tree, then the tree will sound like a buffalo. If we prick the tree we will get milk. If we drink that milk for four days we will get swoon. If someone gives cow’s milk to drink at regular intervals, we may get relieved from swoon and will attain kaaya siddhi.

Pavalaththuththi

To the north of the kanaierumai tree, at a distance an arrow can travel, we find this plant. It looks like marshmallow plant and the leaves tip are red in color. The leafstalk and its stem are red in color too. Its flower is in color of coral. If we powder the leaves and add it to the cow’s milk and drink for a week we can attain kaaya siddhi.

Uroamavirutcham

If we walk 48 minutes downwards to the Ramadevar’s ashram we can find more uroamavirutcham trees. It will be in the colour of ash. Its branches will be like hairs and if we touch it will as soft as cotton. Its bark has to crushed into powder without the help of the iron. Take thirikadi piramanam* quantity of it and mix in honey and eat for 48 days to attain kaaya siddhi. The urine of the person who attains this kaaya siddhi have effect on the panchaloga*.

(There is a story which says that the urine of Sivavaakkiyar has changed iron and it turned into gold. That’s because he might have ate some kaya kalpa of this kind.)

If we make hole one this tree’s bark and pour mercury in the hole and cover the hole by tree’s bark itself. If you see it after 45 days, it will become solid. Take the bark of this tree, grind it with that solid and make a shield. Do pudamiduthal and melt to solid balls. If we put that solid mercury ball in mouth then the cut through a knife or a hit by an arrow causes no harm. Also we can prevent white hairs, wrinkles, aging, diseases and attain kaaya  siddhi.

*Sendhooram – any chemical or metallic compound used medicinally

*Thirikadi Piramanam – the quantity taken using the tip of three fingers

*Panchaloga  - the five metals of gold, iron, copper, lead and silver

The information about the rare herbs in the Sathuragiri Mountain continues in this post also. We shall see about certain herbs which has been told as special and rare species in the puranas and the epics.

Karpaga Tharu

This tree which has been named as the karpaga tharu or panja tharu is present beind the temple of Mahalingar. It has been told that the tree contains five different kinds of branches and each one of them has got distinct kinds of leaves. With this only we can easily identify the tree. If we one pana edai* quantity of the bark of this tree then we can get rid of all the diseases. Also if we hit this tree it will shed

milk and if we drink it for 48 days we can attain kaaya siddhi.

Sanjeevi herb

You might have heard the story in the Ramayana that the entire mountain has been uprooted for the need of one single herb. This herb has got various names like Sanjeevini herb, the herb that won lord Yama, Thasaiyotti herb. The leaf of this tree will be like that of the small neem leaves. This is kuththu plant. If we pour a pinch of the leaf’s juice into the nose and blow, even the dead ones can be given life. Also if we apply this juice at the places where the cuts/wounds are present then it will rejoin and the person will wake up as if he just woke up from sleep. Those who have got swoon, for them if we blow with the herb they will get relieved from it. If we just inhale the air that comes after touching this tree, it will increase the life time and helps in attaining kaaya siddhi.

Uroama vaengai

In the Sathuragir Mountain there is a rock named Sangili paarai. To its south east this uroama vaengai tree is present. This is as soft as East Indian kino tree and it is in the colour of ashes. This branch will be hanging like the hair of the deer. If we pluck the bark of this tree then milk will shed like blood. If we apply that milk to gold then it will become parpam. If we eat that we can attain kaaya siddhi.

Katraamarai

There is a forest named Kalangi vanam in the Sathuragiri Mountain. To its north there is water damp ground. On that ground you can find this herb. If we touch one leaf of this herb, it would bloom into four more leaves. The roots of the tree will be like a plot of the women’s hair. If we insert an iron nail into its roots and remove it will turn into a copper nail. Later if we again insert and remove that copper nail at another place in the roots,it would turn into silver nail. If we again insert and remove that silver nail at another place in the roots, it would turn into gold nail. Also if we press that nail with foot in the daytime and see the sky, we can find stars. With these hints we can identify this herb and pluck it removing the curses of herb. If we make the roots dry and crush them into powder. Take verukadi piramanam* amount of that powder and consume it for 48 days, then we can attain kaaya siddhi.

In the next post also, we shall see about some other wonderfulful herbs of the Sathuragiri Mounitain.

*Pana edai - 488 mg

*Parpam – dust, sacred ashes

*Verukadi Piramanam - The quantity (of sand) taken by three fingers, including thumb, of the Wild cat. Veruku denotes the Wild cat.

So far we have seen about the various rare trees and herbs that is present in the Sathuragiri Mountain. In the upcoming posts, let us see about the information where they are located. Also we will know about their nature and greatness.

Some of the friends have show their disinterest in me sharing these rare information in the public. I wish to answer to those friends. All these are possible for me only under the guidance of a guru. The secrets which are cursed by the Siththars can be known only to those who attempt doing with good heart and with the grace of the guru. Let us know about the herbs.

Mundaga Virutcham

In the northern side of the Mahalinga murthy‘s temple, if we walk for 24 minutes we can find a forest. In the north-west corner of that forest, these trees are present. Though it looks like banyan tree, the leaves are small and the fruits are like kalaththikkaai. If we hit this tree milk sheds.

On drinking half cup of that milk for thirty days, swoon happens. At that time some one should stay with swooned person and has to give the spoon boiled cow’s milk, mixed with honey, often. If they drink this continuously, then the swoon stops.Within a week kaaya siddhi will be attained. The body shines in gold color.

Azhukanni

Next to the tree that is mentioned above i.e. mundaga virutcham, there is a round rock. To its west you will find a damp ground filled with crushed stones. There this herb azhukanni is grown. The leaves of the herb will be like jackfruit pulp. The flower will be yellow in color and the fruit will be like fruit  of climbing nettle. The curse of the herb has to be removed and then pluck it. The root of the herb has to be mixed with cow’s ghee and eating it for 48 days can prevent from the white hairs, wrinkles, diseases and aging.

.

Thozhukanni

From the place mentioned above, moving bit forward we can find this herbthozhukanni. The leaves of the herb looks like willow tree’s leaf. The flower is white in colour and leafstalk is black in color. It will be facing the sun. With these tips, we can identify this herb. Take some leaves of this herb and the thozhukanni herb in equal measures and powder them. Take thirikadi piramanam* quantity of that powder and add cow’s milk to it and drink. You can attain kaaya siddhi.

In next post we shall see about the karpaga virutcham and the sanjeevi herb.

The Siththars had practiced their own way of Kalpa and also the number of times each one of them had the Kalpa, all these are listed by Theraiyar. Agathiyar 100, Nandhisar 100, Bogar 44, Sattai muni 21, Konganavar 16, Thirumoolar 66, Korakar 90, Romarishi 71, Machcha muni 71, Raamadevar 71. Likewise there are so many people whose names we do not know, had also practiced Kaya Kalpa. Ramalinga Vallalar is junior to all of them, but Vallalar has preferred Yogic Kaya Kalpa methods than medicinal Kaya Kalpa methods.

What is that Yogic Kaya Kalpa method? We will see that in our next article.

If someone eats Kaya Kalpa by following all the diet strictly then there won’t be any issues regarding their health.

If he drinks buttermilk because of thirsty, then his stomach will ache highly. If he use salt, then he will lose his vision in both the eyes.”

*paandu - chronic dropsy causing bloating of the stomach

There is a tree named ‘Kili mookku’. It will be very tall. The leaf of that tree will be like rice. In that tree if a flower blooms the next day only it develops into a fruit and gets ripen too. If we eat that fruit that day only we will attain Kaya Kalpa says Bogar.

The bark and roots of the  ‘Karuvembu (Garuga Pinnata)’  has to be dried and grinded, and can be taken every evening for 48 days. As a result the hair fall can be controlled. While having this Kalpa we can stay in the Samadhi* easily. While eating this Kalpa if you are in a dark room then your body will shine like rising sun says Bogar.

A shrub named 'Vishnu Kiraandhi (Evolvulus alsiniodes)' is taken without the root part. Grind it by adding milk with it. An areca nut size of this mixture is to be eaten in the evening for the next 48 days.

If you continue to eat it, then you will regain all your lost memory and also your memory power will grow up. Your eye sight will also grow to see upto one yoasanai distance, your body seems to glow, your inhaling process will happen well says Bogar.

Important Note:- 

While eating this Kaya Kalpa the diet has to be strictly followed. I have already told about the diet to be followed in the previous article.

*one yoasanai distance - We don’t know about the exact measurement. Will update once we know it.

The nelli vatral* is called as “nelli mulli”. Nelli vatral and sendhooram* can be available in general store itself.

Bogar says, "Crush the nelli vatral finely into powder. Now mix up 8 parts of the nelli vatral with one part of sendhooram. Take about 84 ml of this mixture and make it as a mash by mixing with the pure honey. Eat this mash in evening times.

If you eat this mash continuously for 48 days, then your body will tune like an ebony tree and will shine like a fire.”

Mostly many of us don’t know about the great qualities of neem. Even if it is known, that may be the general characteristics of the neem tree. In his book 'Thathuvam Munnooru', Agathiyar had explained about the benefits of neem in detail in third gnana kaandam.

“பாரப்பா வேம்பினூட பிறப்பைக் கேளு

paarappaa vaembinooda pirappai kaelu

பணியனையன் பாலாழி யமுர்தம் தனை

paniyanaiyan paalaazhi yamurtham thanai

நேரப்பா பெண்ணுருவாய் தேவர்க்குப் படைத்தார்

naerappaa pennuruvaai devarkku padaiththaar

நிகரில்லா ராட்சதர்கள் பெண்ணைப் பார்த்து

nigarillaa raatsatharkal pennai paarththu

சாரப்பா மயங்கி நின்ற ரசுரர்ககளி லொருவன்

saarappaa mayangi ninra rasurarkakali loruvan

தானவர்கள் பந்தியிலே வந் திருந்த தாலே

thaanavarkal panthiyilae van thiruntha thaalae

சேரப்பா தேவருடன் கலந்திருந்த தாலே

saerappaa Devarudan kalanthiruntha thaalae

திருமாலு மூன்றகப்பை படைத்தான் கேளே

Thirumaalu moonragappai padaiththaan kaelu.”

The above script says, “Listen. I will say about the birth of Neem. When Thirumal appeared as girl and shared the elixir to celestials using wooden ladle, demons fell in love with the beauty of that girl. But a demon sat in the middle of the celestial without the knowledge of others. Thirumaal without noticing gave three wooden ladles of elixir to the demon who sat among the celestials.

“படைத்திட்ட பெருமாலாம் பெண்ணி நோடு

padaiththitta perumaalaam penni noadu

பருதி மதி யசுரனவ ரென்ற போது

paruthi mathi yasuranava renra poathu

உடைத்திட்ட அசுரனவன் னமுர்த முண்ண

udaiththitta asuranavan namurtha munna

ஓரடியா யாகப்பையினால் வெட்டினார் மால்

oaradiyaa yaagappaiyinaal vettinaar maal

படைத்திட்ட யிரண்டாகி ரவி மதிக்கு

padaiththitta yirandaagi ravi mathikku

பகையாகி ராகுகே துக்களேன்றே சர்ப்பமானார்

pagaiyaaki raagukae thukkalaenrae sarppamaanaar

அடைத்திட்ட அகப்பையினால் வெட்டும் போது

adaiththitta agappaiyinaal vettum poathu

அவன்வா யாலமுர்த்த மாதைக் கக்கி னானே

avanvaa yaalamurththa maathai kakku naanae.”

The above script says, “Suryan (Sun) and Chandran (Moon), who were near to the Thirumal, showed a gesture to Thirumal that he was giving elixir to demon. Thirumal had cut off demon’s head from his body using the wooden ladle. Hence demon(s) Raagu(head) and Kaethu(body) had become enemies to Suryan and Chandran”.  Demon spitted the remaining elixie when he was cut by the wooden ladle.

“கக்கும்போ தமூர் தமது லிங்கம், போலக்

kakkumpoa thamoor thamathu lingam, poala

காசினியில் விழுந்ததுவே வேம்பு மாச்சு

kaasiniyil vizhunthathuvae vaembu maachchu

முக்கியமாய்க் கசப்பு வந்த தேதென்றாகால்

mukkiyamaai kasappu vanhtha thaethenraagaal

சக்கியமாய் வேம்பு தின்றால் சாவோ யில்லை

sakkiyamaai vaembu thinraal saavoa yillai

சனகாதி நால்வருடன் யானுந் தின்று

Sanakaathi naalvarudan yaanum thinru

அக்கண மேசித்திபெற் றவேம்பு நேர்மை

akkana maesiththipe travaembu naermai

ஆரறிவா ருலகத்தோ ரறியார் காணே

aararivaa rulakaththoa rariyaar kaanae.”

The above script says, “When demon spitted, the elixir fell on the Earth became neem tree. The reason why neem got bitter taste is because it has came from the demon’s (snake) poisonous mouth. If you eat neem regularly then there is no death for you. Like this I ate neem with four Sanakaathi’s (my masters) and attained kaaya siddhi*. Who in the World  knows such a great values of neem?”

*Kaaya Siddhi - 'Kaayam' means body. Siddhi means power that can be attained. Hence kaaya siddhi can be meant as the power of attaining immortal body.
