Guest guest Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 Dear Srinivas Ji, There are two rattis, one equals to 121 mg, and another equals to 181 mg. If I remember correctly then the 181 mg one is used when measuring gemstones etc. On the other hand, 5 carats make one gram (=1000 mg) so it means 1 carat = 200 mg. Best wishes Tanvir.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 ~ Om Namah Shivaya ~ Dear Srinivas, I would like to add to what Tanvir has said. 1 carat = 200 mg 1 Ratti = 180 mg So, if you purchase the gemstone by weighing in carats, please multiply it by 200 and then divide the result by 180 mg. Also, do not purchase the gems having .75 ratti (e.g 5.75, 6.75, 7.75 and so on). The ideal weight for yellow sapphire should be between 5-5.5 ratti or 7 to 7.5 ratti. Next 11 and 13 ratti are considered, but they would be too costly. Wear it in gold in ring finger (right hand) or round the neck in locket on thursday (waxing moon days) in the hora of Jupiter. Be sure to purify the gem and energize the gem by chanting mantra for Jupiter.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 Dear Tanvir, Ratti is actually a seed of a plant. The seed has a typical quality that all seeds are equal in weight which is aprox 120 to 122 mgs. The seed is half black and half red in colour and is about the size of a wheat grain. It was in use since ancient times for doing minute measurements required in gems, precious metals, medicines, herbs and drugs. The 122mg ratti is called desi ratti and 180mg is called badi ratti. In most of the small towns like Dehradun, Haridwar, etc. the desi ratti is used still. I have found it beind used in capital cities like Bhopal and Patna. Under the metric system of measurements, a tola is defined as 10 gms and a ratti as 180 mgs. 8 Ratti = 1 Masha, 12 Masha = 1 Tola, 5 Tola = 1 Chhatank, 16 Chhatank = 1 Ser, 40 Ser = 1 Man, 1 Man= 100 Pounds troy (exact) Desi ratti is compatible with man, ser, tola, masha system of weight measurement. If one is measuring one's weight in SER(which is not used nowadays) than the desi ratti should be used. But, if using kilograms, the 180 mgs ratti is recommended. The normal procedure is to take one ratti for every ten kilograms of body weight. For eg, if a person weighs 75 kgs, he should wear a gem of not less than 7.5 ratti.
