Product Details : Leopard Skin Design Woolen Meditation Rug
Description : Beautiful Indian Rugs Using rugs or 'aasans' while praying or meditating is a time-honored practice. The ancient gods, kings, saints or 'rishis' often used real leopoard or tiger skins as aasans while performing puja, yoga or sadhana. These woolen rugs replicate the look, texture and feel of the original. What is the importance of an 'aasan'? The earth or ‘bhumi’ is considered by Hindus to be the wife of Lord Vishnu and human beings regard earth as the 'mother'. To maintain the sanctity of the relationship between the mother and her grow-up children, the 'aasan' acts as a layer between the hips of the son and the body of the mother. Woolen 'aasans' are preferred because wool is a natural and, therefore, a pure fibre. Its warmth acts as a natural barrier between a cold marble or granite floor and the body. Thus a woolen 'aasan' protects you against the cold from seeping into your body which could lead to joint pains, chills and aches, besides taking your concentration away from the ritual practice you are engaged in. A woolen 'aasan' is also safer while doing hawans or lighting lamps and agarbattis. The sparks that fly will only singe the wool and not cause a fire, as wool does not burn. These durable woolen rugs are made by local craftsmen of the Vindhya region. They believe that the goddess Ma Vindhyawasani bestows her blessings on anything that is made here.
