Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Dear Amit, Namaste!!! Thanks. I understand that Bhoj Patra and Sriphal are plants (trees?). Peacock feather is animal part, But I'm not sure about Pancha Gavyam. We need to decide if cow dung, urine, milk, butter, ghee, yogurt, as well as honey, sugar, and also rice and various beans used in yajna...are these Sacred Objects? Or are they Sacred products? Should MILK, for example, be considered a sacred OBJECT or SUBSTANCE? What do you think? Where do we draw the line on Sacred Natural Objects? Also, are there any other natural sacred rocks from anywhere (besides Govardhan, Dvarka, Shalagram, Kailash)...? I'm trying to create the perfect list. Once perfected then I'll let you know what I have in mind for a BIG luxury book, with different authors for each object...

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Dear richard ji, Namskar! I think we should consider only natural objects and not the products like curd, sugar etc...otherwise we have to add almost 1000 more , therefore though these products are sacred and have a religious importance...yet, these r only secondry ones...like we dont do puja of rice, curd ,sugar etc...we use these while doing puja of sacred objects like rudraksha, shilas etc.... therefore , we should add items by getting which a man feel blessed...and not secondry ones. thanks amit uniyal sacred-objects, "Richard Shaw-Brown II" <rsbj66> wrote: > > Dear Amit, > > Namaste!!!

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 Dear Amit/Richardsji, Some objects may not exactly be "holy" items, but by being associated with holy cerimonies and occations they have a place in the list as they do evoke religious feelings in our heart. The following are a few.
