Exploring The Science Behind Pushkar Raj: How Rituals, Mineral-Rich Water, And Purnima Observances Affect Fertility And Health Explains Gurudev GD Vashist | Dharma Live
Pushkar Raj in India is renowned for its unique temple dedicated to Brahma, the only one of its kind globally. The region is also famous for its fragrant roses, which are used to make gulkand (rose preserve). Pushkar's climate, where cool air from the north and warm air from the south meet, creates an ideal environment for fertility. The temple rituals, including bathing in the Pushkar kund, are believed to purify and enhance health. Devotees perform specific rites with sindoor (vermilion) and flowers, believed to have purifying properties. These practices are thought to benefit fertility, as the kund's mineral-rich water improves blood circulation and addresses deficiencies. Observing rituals on Purnima (full moon) is believed to enhance their efficacy, helping individuals conceive or resolve reproductive issues.
