elements 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2009 The original hatha jodi is the root of a poisonous plant named Cylamena. It is abundant outside India. Its Indian variety carries a root called Hatha Jodi. This variety is found in Chattisgarh area. Following link shows a fake Hatha Jodi commonly sold. rudraksha-ratna.com/dispProduct.php?prodId=4165 nepalirudraksha.com/catalog/default.php?cPath=13 shaligram.com/dispCategory.php?catId=282 Please note that I tested this product and showed it to my orthologist friend based in London. My friend informed me that it is the part of an animal bone. It is a big surprise; as so many people are using this in their temples. They are disturbing the sanctity of a holy place by keeping such animal bones in pooja places. It is really shameful that animal parts of protected animals are sold by so called reputed sellers and nobody reports this to authorities. Please do not buy this product. Search for a plant named cyclamen Paranthesis. The roots of this plant is entirely different than the one being sold by sellers. Such sellers should be prosecuted by law.
