Dear Readers,

Radhekrishna!

We are discussing the topic of Vulnerable Spots (Marma) since the last two postings. In this post, let us see more on this topic.

Saptottaram marmasatam. taani marmaani
pannchaatmakaani bhavanti tadyathaa
maamsamarmaani siraamarmaani snaayumarmaani
ashthimarmaani sandhiarmaani ceti. Naa khalu
maamsasiraa-snaayvasthisandhivyatirekenaanyaani
marmaani bhavanti yasmaannopalabhyante.

Meaning:

Vulnerable spots (are) 107. These vulnerable spots are five-fold, they being:

· Muscle-related vulnerable spots
· Blood vessel-related vulnerable spots
· Sinew-related vulnerable spots
· Bone-related vulnerable spots and
· Joints-related vulnerable spots

Surely there are no vulnerable spots other than these: muscle, blood vessel, sinew*, bone and joint-related vulnerable spots: because none else is found.

*Sinew – That which joins a muscle to a bone

… to be continued

Section II: Information about Indian herbs:

Herb which we will tell about in this post is named Babchi (Psorales Corylifolia in Latin).

· It is a well known medicinal herb, used as a laxative and anthelmintic (anti-parasite)
· The seeds of the Babchi help cure leucoderma if used as a paste for forty days

We will discuss about a new herb in the next post. Till then Radhekrishna!
