Guest guest Posted August 22, 2004 Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 Dear Simoneji, > To mind, there is something called "Mani- something" > ancient text that may contain a bit more though not much more If > I come across it at some point, will let you know. ---Mani Mala by S.M. Tagore (1879). I have a copy. It doesn't mention burning except the one verse from Sri Garuda Puranam. > Natural Indian rubies and Burmese rubies for example. ---Yes, Burma has great rubies (though mostly burned and flawed). India has 0 production of Gem Quality red corundum. Ruby means transparent red corundum. India (south) only has opaque (like a reddish brick) red industrial quality corundum. That is Industrial quality, not jyotish. So India is out for rubies. For some weird reason, my humble > inclination is towards yellow topaz as opposed to citrine as > substitute for yellow sapphire. ---Yes. Citrine is ALWAYS burned (amethyst). Natural yellow topaz is called pukraj and is great for Jupiter. > Also agree regarding the use of high- > end quality gems (serious carats and funds) if an individual can > afford them, that they work regardless of heated or natural, *only* > if the gem is prescribed to be right for them. In low carats, > preferably natural. In semiprecious, preferably natural with carats > increased too. ---Yes. Provided a gem is good quality (jyotish) and good for the person, then the size is a matter of dose. Any gem, the bigger, the stronger. Too little dose is always a (little-bit) good; but too heavy dose is dangerious. Do you take two pills, or 100 pills? In any case, the pill must be pure. The siingle biggest deception in the entire gem world is "cultured pearl" use in jyotish. A "natural" pearl is the ONLY pearl...this simply requires certification with x-ray exam. Others say they have no source of natural. Well the Persian Gulf has them and that is where I get them. BUT, natural pearls cost the same as a precious gem (being a precious gem) around @$1000-2500 per/ct. Natural pearl, formed entirely by nature, is a "sacred single unit." ---FYI Hope this help...
