We began the topic on vulnerable spots in the human body in our previous posting. We will continue with the same in this post.

Below is a shloka which describes the broad body parts where all of the vulnerable spots are present. This skloka is to be read in the context of the shloka mentioned in the previous post as it is directly linked to it.

Teshaamekaadashaikasmin shakti bhavanti
Etenetrashaktibahu cha vyakhyaatau
Udarorasordvaadasa chaturdasha prashthe
grivaampratyurdhvaam saptatrimshat

Meaning:

These vulnerable spots are in

The thighs 11 each
The two arms 11 each
Stomach/ chest 12
Back 14
Neck and above 37

Now the third shloka mentions some broad categories into which the 107 vulnerable spots can be classified. We will look in to that in the next post.

Section II: Information about Indian herbs:

The plant about which we will tell you today is called as ‘Siris’ in Sanskrit, (Alibizzia Odoratissima in Latin).

1. It is a large tree generally planted along the roads to provide shade

2. A decoction of the its bark is used as a mouthwash

3. That decoction also gives relief against tooth-ache

4. The decoction helps in curing oedema

5. Cold and catarrah are relieved by snuff prepared from the seeds of Siris

6. If the seeds of the Siris are taken in powder form along with milk, it helps relieve complaints like spermatorrhoea and premature ejaculation

That concludes this section for the forthnight.

Till the next posting,

Radhekrishna!
