Organic Ghee

Ghee or Clarified Butter increases ojas, which is the underlying basis of all immunity and the essence of all bodily tissues Ghee softens and strengthens, protects and nourishes the skin. Ghee increases the overall strength, luster and beauty of the body.

Abhyanga bypasses the digestive system and allows the qualities of ghee to penetrate directly  into the deeper tissues. It is said that sixty per-cent of what is placed on the skin is absorbed into the body. We literally ‘eat’ what we put on our skin. Ayurveda suggests that if we would not eat something, we should not use it on our skin. In ancient India, wells full of ghee were made and saved for times of war, especially for those who suffered wounds. When a surgeon cuts open a body, he only does so, knowing that the body will be able to heal itself. The surgeon cannot heal. Ghee magnifies Ropana (healing), and its effectiveness in facilitating recovery from wounds is celebrated. In Ayurveda, when a person has a chronic peptic ulcer or gastritis, ghee is used to heal the ulcer inside the intestinal tract. Ghee works wondrously on bedsores for the elderly or debilitated. It can also be applied for broken bones and bruises. It is highly effective for all sorts of skin rashes. It is also used on burns from both fire and chemicals.

Ghee is an exquisite Rasayana (rejuvenative substance, giver of Rasa-juice) and is known to contribute to longevity. In Ayurveda, long life is correlated with good Agni and good Kapha. I have mentioned how ghee increases Agni. Ghee also has the qualities of being heavy, slow, oily, liquid, dense, and soft. It is these qualities of Kapha that help build the body, unit by unit. Ghee, in a very sure and steady way, slows the aging process by enriching the living one. 

Ghee has the quality of snigda (oiliness, unctuousness). It is smooth, lubricating and nurturing. Ghee makes the voice soft and melodious.  Ghee is Guru (heavy). It mildly increases the qualities of Kapha and decreases Pitta and Vata, which are both light. In moderation, ghee balances all the doshas.  Ghee has the quality of mrdu (softness). In Ayurvedic Panchakarma treatments, ghee is the oil used on the eyes.

The ingestion of Ghee is like offering the finest of fuels into the fires of digestion- Agni. Accordingly, Ghee builds the aura, makes all the organs soft, builds up the internal juices of the body, Rasa, which aging destroys and increases the most refined element of digestion, Shukra, or Ojas- the basis of all immunity in the body. Ghee is known to increase intelligence, Dhi, refine the intellect, Buddhi, and improve the memory, Smrti.  Although Ghee kindles or increases Agni, the digestive fire on which all nutrition depends, it does so without aggravating Pitta, the elemental functioning of fire within the body. In fact, Ghee cools the body, essential in a world in which everything is overheating

Ghee causes secretions and liquefaction in the dhatus, bodily tissues that dissolve wastes allowing the functional intelligences of the body, doshas, to carry away waste/toxins (Ama)  

Ghee has the quality of Snigda, oiliness, and unctuousness. It is smooth, lubricated and nurturing. Ghee is thought to make the voice soft and melodious. Ghee is Guru, heavy. It increases the qualities of Kapha and decreases Pitta and Vata, which are both light. Ghee makes the body flexible and, in small doses, is tridoshic. Ghee pacifies pitta and vata and is acceptable, in moderation, for kapha. Persons who already have high cholesterol or suffer from obesity should be cautious in using ghee. Ghee is not to be used when there are high ama (toxic) conditions. The coagulated lactose and other milk solids are removed in the process, making it suitable for lactose intolerant people.
