The Tulsi plant (Holy Basil) is highly revered by Hindus as it is precious to Lord Vishnu (the Preserver of the Universe). It also contains healing elements that are used in Ayurvedic remedies. Here are some of the ways Tulsi can benefit your health:
Today (Wednesday, 24 March) marks the auspicious celebration of the birthday of Hindu Lord, Sri Ram. This celebration, known as Ramayana Week, commenced with the Hindu New Year, which was on 16 March this year.
Today all Hindus around the world assemble in celebration of new beginnings as 16 March 2010 marks a New Year on the Hindu calendar.
Tomorrow night (12 February) is when Hindus all around the world will gather at religious shrines and temples to celebrate Maha Shivaratri. Shivaratri falls on the 14th night of the new moon in the Hindu month of Phalgun, which corresponds to the months of February and March in the English Calendar.
