Guest guest Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Very Respected Yograj ji, We feel honoured by your quest for the truth. That is the spirit Lal Kitab inculcates in its followers,to go to any length to find the reality. These days who would make a distance-call to learn about the facts so that they could be shared with unknowns [ practically speaking] Thank you, Sir With great regards and respect Varun Trivedi , Yograj Prabhakar <yr_prabhakar wrote: > > Dear Varun ji > > Exact lexical meanings of this Persian word Kushtaa is " To Kill " or " Maarna/Maar Dena " in simple Hindustani.

Under that process some quantity of good quality Heeng was put in the wheat dough, and the dough was buried under the wooden fire, after some time when that dough turns rock hard with heat, the Heeng was taken out and grinded into Chooran form. I also often heard the word " Kushtaa Maarna " from my grandfather when I was a young lad. I also heard that Kushtaa is normally taken (rather licked) with honey (as we consume Sitopladee Churan for cough etc.) but even then I was not 100% sure about Kushtaa, that created a doubt in my mind. > > So, for getting the correct answer I consulted a prominent Ayurved Acharya Dr. Pushpraj Sharma jee of Chandigarh (Ph. 94171-96676) who is a very good friend of mine. He confirmed that Kushtaa is Bhasma (or like Bhasma) and Avleh is Majoon (Khameera or like yeast). That is why I decided to share these facts with my colleagues. > > Respectfully > Yograj Prabhakar > > > varun_trvd <varun_trvd wrote: Very Respected Yograj ji, > > Thank you for correcting me.
