Vibhuti is traditionlly prepared either from ash from cowdung, or from rice husks.In an age-old practice is made out of dried cow dung cakes in a Vaideeka mode during the annual Maha Sivarathri festival.
Vibhuti is believed to have medicinal value and is used in many ayurvedic medicines. It absorbs excess moisture from the body and prevents colds and headaches.When worn on the left side or center of the body, the harmonious Vibrational energies of the Vibhuti are picked up by the body's electrical system, stabilizing, balancing and energizing the human energy field so that the body has a chance to take care of itself naturally improving the mental and physical being.
Vibhuti is taken between your thumb and your ring finger – you don’t have to pick up a lot of it, just a little bit – and applied between the eyebrows, known as the agna chakra, at the pit of the throat known as the vishuddhi chakra, and in the center of the chest where the rib-cage meets, known as the anahata chakra. It used to be common knowledge in India that you must apply it at these points. The reason why these particular points have been specified is because sacred ash makes them more sensitive.
This is a very deep science, but today, without understanding the science behind it, we simply apply it like a stripe on the forehead to show off that we have a great in god. Apply during headache and after head bath you'll sure notice a great impact.
