Guest guest Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 Namaste Group:I am growing some sacred basil and I managed to get some seeds from a Betel tree. (Let's hope it grows up here in Washington State.) I was wondering what plants, trees, or flowers are sacred to Maa Durga. I have heard that Hibiscus is sacred to Maa Kali, and I have actually tried to procure Kusha grass, but I can't find it.Any other ideas for plants, trees, or flowers?Shanti Om,Shankari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 I have heard that devotees offer limes to our Mother Durga, as they are considered to be pleasing to Her.Jai Maa !--- On Fri, 10/24/08, Shankari Kali <shankari_kali wrote:Shankari Kali <shankari_kali[www.ShreeMaa.org] Flowers, Plants, & Trees Sacred To Durga Date: Friday, October 24, 2008, 9:55 AM Namaste Group:I am growing some sacred basil and I managed to get some seeds from a Betel tree.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Namaste Group:Happy Diwali! I found out on another group that Kusha grass is Vetivert, and can be obtained from http://www.richters.com/Web_store/web_store.cgi?show=list & prodclass=Herb_and_Vegetable_Seeds & cart_id=3744836.24233He is currently out of Vetivert right now. My sacred Basil grows great inside, but the weeds rapidly take over it outside. I was also wondering because Sacred Mother is associated with bees (she is called bee-like in various texts) if we could plant Lavender or Vervain which attracts quite a number of bees.Shanti Om!Shankari Kali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
