Guest guest Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 Dear Member: No...what you have written is " Arasa maram " ....it is not sami tree. Sami tree is called " vanni maram " in Tamil. Search for that. I have already written about this in the posts related to Aswatta pradakshinam. Blessed be.
