⚪️Perfumes for luck❓

The easiest way to activate Venus, the planet of luck, is by wearing good perfumes.
Forget astrology, our ancestors proved with their actions that smelling good was an important part of their daily routine.

We apparently had a #GANDHASHASTRA too. Image
2/8
Modern day science calls it #AromaTherapy and confirms that our olfactory senses, EMOTIONS and memory are connected.

This is why some of our best and worst memories of few ppl are associated with good & bad fragrances.

Ex partners, Boss, first crush and so on.
3/8
Interestingly #GANDHAYUKTI (gandh means scent, yukti means strategy/trick) which is part of Brihat-samhita, written by Varahamihira, is classified as JYOTISHA literature.

It contains content regarding astrology, agriculture, gardening, PERFUMES & MEDICINES too. Image

 “I am the sacred fragrance of the earth”— Bhagavad Gita

I’m sure pooja-room reminds you of the different fragrances of camphor and SANDALWOOD,
and brides remind you of JASMINE and roses. Image
4/8

Gandhayukti mentions
how Champaka-gandhi oil (one of the famous oils) can be created by mixing CINNAMON,
Manjishtha and other natural ingredients.

Saffron & agarwood also find a mention in diff ancient texts and were used in scented oils. Image
6/8

Our ancestors also gave importance to mouth fresheners.

This is why CLOVE & cardamom have been the most commonly used mouth fresheners since ancient times.
(Ofcourse they hv other health-benefits too)

🟡Each natural scent has a healing property. Image
7/8
Coming back to brides and jasmine— jasmine’s scent is associated with seduction, femininity, and love.

Men are associated with stronger scents of musk, lemon and the woody fragrances.

Our marriage functions are all about decorations with flowers.

Isn’t it❓ ImageImage
8/8
🔴My point is—ur scent, if enhanced with perfumes, leaves a trail of good memories. 😊

Beautiful homes & ppl r associated with good fragrances.

It takes some hard-work & few olfactory-psychological tricks to activate ur luck. 😊

Next time u step out, smell ur best.
Forgot to add:
Tulasi/ Tulsi (Basil) is also used during marriages, especially in the ones organised inside temples. Image
Pls note cardamom & cloves are considered good mouth fresheners but are taken only in small quantities. 👍

This #Ayurveda treatment for EYE SIGHT I can vouch for. 👍👍👍
It really works‼️

I witnessed it myself (though from a different Ayurveda-shala) in Kerala.

One of our cousin was very upset that her daughter in pre-KG had poor eyesight.
Chechi/ didi told me she had the same issue as a kid and AYURVEDA treatment with oil and urad daal helped her.
That cream colour dough u see is usually made of URAD DAAL.

Chechi took her daughter to the same Ayurveda shala she went as a kid for treatment. I think complete cure takes place if the procedure is followed religiously for a few months.

Since they were living in UAE, chechi bought the oils to be used, from Kerala, and continued the treatment of her daughter, here at her home.

That kid — my god! has perfect eyesight now.
Touchwood‼️

Albeit I understood that if the eyesight related issue is genetical then despite curing it, the same problem recurs in the next generation.
As long as you’re ready to do the AYURVEDA treatment religiously, I dont think it matters. It produces results for sure.

Apparently, in kerala now they have such EYE SIGHT related Ayurvedashala everywhere.
Its just that some have greater expertise. 👍

I spotted this video and thought I will jot down our cousin’s experience.

Hope it helps. 👍

PS: The Ayurveda shala mentioned below is not the one chechi visited. It was different one in Thrissur.
There are many such Ayurvedashalas all over kerala. 👍
Ayurveda treatments take longer and need more dedication. But if the procedure is followed as per instructions it really produces results.
Found this video on Kerala tourism.
Seems people visit the place for this treatment.

Do you know about the YAKSHI who protects one of the SECRET vaults in Shri #Padmanabha temple???😊

I know stories of YAKSHI are not mainstream.

But here’s yakshi a follower of #NARSIMHA, whose fear prevented people from opening the only unopened vault of the famous temple in Kerala.

The below is an AI version of the story in Malayalam.

I will jot down the story in the thread.

Her name was Chiruthevi.

She was a beautiful courtesan of Raman Thampi, son of King Rama Varma and rival of Anizhom Thirunal Marthanda Varma.

Chiruthevi was born into a rich Nair tharavad by the name Mangalathu Sreedevi in Southern Travancore.

This is a MURAL from the Padmanabha temple.Image

Being a beautiful courtesan she had many wooers and she used to ruin them by exploiting them.

But she fell hard for one man— Kunjiraman (her palanquin-bearer).
He was already married.

#EMPURAAN controversy--deeper than u think.
👇👇👇
@HMOIndia @NIA_India

🔺2021: Dir Prithviraj was part of "Save #LAKSHDWEEP campaign"; anti-Central govt's policies to bring changes to the islands.

👉LAKSHDWEEP's links to ISIS:
15 ISIS terrorists reached the islands in 2019 from Sri Lanka.Image
2/4

Govt decided to ring fence the entities of the island.

But in 2021, Prithviraj and his gang gave voice to "save Lakshadweep campaign" but with a twist--- they had no intention of "saving the islands".

What were they protesting against?
The GOONDA ACT! Image
3/4
I am sure everyone remembers that Indian Govt had introduced #Antisocial Activities Regulation Bill, 2021, also called the #GOONDA Act, under which police can arrest anyone for up to one year in Lakshadweep.

But those purveying propaganda claimed-- Lakshadweep has ZERO criminals.

Is INDIA- Pakistan map getting altered again❓

WRITE IT DOWN ON STONE— yes, its happening in next 7 years.

👉Last time Uranus (planet of rebellion) was in sign of Gemini India- Pakistan separated.

My tweet thread from Jan 2020.
Who said world wasnt warned abt COVID? Image

Before I explain abt India- Pakistan, here’s something you shld knw about Uranus: 👇

👉It takes about 84 years to complete its revolution around the Sun.

👉So in each of the 12 signs URANUS spends about 7 years.

84/12=7 Image
3/n

🌐Uranus is moving to the sign of Gemini in 2025. And will remain there for next 7 years.

I do not believe that as soon as Uranus moves into Gemini, India and Pakistan will witness any changes.

But seeds have been sown.

⚠️ Change in map will happen in next 7 years
