Tulasi Vivah: Worship of plants in Indian culture

For thousands of years, the Rishis proclaimed that there is life and consciousness in plants. This was only discovered by science in the early 20th century. Hindus worship the divinity in plants and as a symbol of this they keep Tulasi in their homes. Tulasi purifies the atmosphere in the house. It is a quality of Tulasi that it emits O³ into the atmosphere and makes it ozone rich. A person's efficiency increases because of this.

In this episode, Dhruv Chhatralia reflects upon why we worship the Tulasi plant, the medicinal benefits of the Tulasi plant, what the Sanskrit language reveals about plants, and the spiritual significance and medicinal benefits of the Bilwa plant.
