Navaratna Ring
Ring
of Planetary Gems
Navratna ring is an
institution among the Hindus as much as bathing in the Ganges, belief in
reincarnation and applying `pottu’ on the forehead. Navaratna has its devotees
also in Burma and Siam (Thailand). Navaratna stories are also in Burma and Siam
(Thailand). Navaratna stories are also worn as pendants by the women. They
should then touch the body without
any dress or other jewellery coming in between.
The correct planetary
stones according to Sastra (Kashyap
Smriti) and other classics are:
1.
The Sun- Ruby.
2.
The Moon- Pearl.
3.
Mars-Coral.
4.
Rahu- Gomedaka (Ciaaam)
5.
Jupiter- Pushparaga (yellow sapphire or oriental topaz).
6.
Saturn- Blue Sapphire.
7.
Mercury- Emerald.
8.
Ketu- Cat’s eye.
9.
Venus- Diamond.
In Ceylon Singhalese
favour Padmaraga (Golden Topaz or Golden Sapphire) in place of Coral; while
Hindus sometimes substitute Padmaraga in place of Ruby.
In order to purify and
also increase its efficacy, some regularly dip the ring in goat’s milk,
turmeric water or saffron water overnight Full Moon night preferably, as there
is a belief that their beloved Navaratna would look after the owner well to the
extent the owner looks after the Navaratnas. This also includes in not
indulging in drinking, debauchery, gambling and other vices when wearing the
ring.
Even off the counter,
Navaratna rings have beneficial effects on the wearers though not so pronounced
as the authentic custom made ones.
Warning –
about wearing the rings made for others. Though these rings with stones of
uniform size could be worn safely after they have gone through a process of
purification; those rings that have been `tailored’ for a particular owner
with, one or more stones bigger than the rest should never be worn by another
unless the planetary positions coincide with that of the original owner; which
is very remote. The results could be malefic to those whose vibrations are
different.
