    Dear Radhi,
    Thanks for the pointer.
    Yes, I know te sanskrit word Dhorbhi karanam & the meaning. But the malayalam term is new to me!

    Thanks, lavii, for coming here.
    Many scientific reasons are 'discovered' by us now; but many are still in the 'superstition' stage for us!!
    Thanks for your nice words.
    Love,

    Thanks, Bunny.
    But it is a 'body-twisting' exercise & done 12 times in the morning does help us physically as well!!

    Chithra madam

    Another great insight...thank you for sharing this one!

    And about westerners copying our traditional methods...we are running to become westerners in every aspect..and they are turning into ancient easy methods:) I guess there was a old saying...we dont know the value of the plant that grows in our garden:bonkwe always look into someones garden and say ohhh what a great garden!!!

    Thanks, SV for sharing my thoughts!!
    Each culture/tradition has different values. But we should not decry ours & glorify the other!
    Finally we are the losers as in this case :-(
    Love,

    Dear Anjalie,
    Welcome to my sub-forum.
    Instead of dismissing many customs as superstition, it is wise to understand & learn the scientific meanings!!
    Thanks & love,
