Sandalwood Oil (I'm still away)

[Guest guest]

Beloved Friends,

 

Just a quick namaste and hello to everyone! I'm still away for

another few days.

 

Meantime, anyone looking for Sandalwood Oil, please note that Mysore

in India produces the world's finest sandalwood oil and sandalwood

products.

 

Rudra Centre has Mysore Sandalwood Oil. I bought several bottles and

they are Excellent.......!! You will never get the same wonderful

fragrance elsewhere.

 

There are different types of sandalwood species, hence the scents

can differ. For example in Australia, we have sandalwood too but I

never purchase sandalwood oil here becos its not as good as Mysore

Sandalwood oil.

 

If interested in Mysore Sandalwood Oil, please check out

www.rudraksha-ratna.com Or you can email Ms. Neeta or Sri DDji

directly to enquire.

 

Jai Bholenath Namah Om

Sandl wood oil has cooling properties, and is also somewhat antiseptic. It is

very sacred to the Hindu Gods, Who are pleased by the fragrance.

Active Compounds:

The essential oil contains high amounts of alpha- and beta-santalol. These small

molecules possess antibacterial and sedative properties. Synthetic sandalwood

does not contain the active ingredients.

 

History:

Sandalwood oil was used traditionally to treat skin diseases, acne, dysentery,

gonorrhea, and a number of other conditions.1 In traditional Chinese medicine,

sandalwood oil is considered an excellent sedating agent.

 

Medicinal Applications

alterative, antibacterial, antiseptic, astringent, carminative, disinfectant,

diuretic, expectorant, hemostatic, refrigerant, sedative, stimulant.

The medicinal properties of sandalwood reside in the oil, which can be pressed

from the wood or extracted with alcohol or water. The antiseptic and

disinfectant properties of this oil are similar to those of cubeb oil. The oil

can also be used for bronchitis and for inflammation in mucous tissue. A

decoction of the wood may be helpful for indigestion and fever and externally

for skin problems, especially those of bacterial origin.

 

Sandalwood cools and calms the entire body and mind. It affects the circulatory,

digestive, respiratory and nervous systems. It relieves fever, thirst, burning

sensation and stops sweating. It is good for fever or overexposure to the sun.

 

Sandalwood is good for most of inflammatory conditions and for cleansing the

blood. The oil or paste is useful for most infectious sores or ulcers if applied

externally.

 

Sandalwood helps the awakening of intelligence. It also aids in the

transmutation of sexual energy.

 

Dosage:

Infusion (hot or cold), decoction, powder (250 mg to 1 g), medicated oil

Decoction: Boil 1 heaping tsp. wood in I cup water. Take 1 to 2 cups a day, a

mouthful at a time.

 

Tincture: A dose is from 20 to 40 drops.

 

Typically, a few drops of sandalwood oil are dissolved in water, and the

infected area of skin is then soaked in the solution, or the diluted oil is

applied directly.

 

Safety:

Some people may experience severe lung congestion.

 

Some people may experience mild skin irritation from topical application of

sandalwood oil.
