(1) CT scan is used by medical profession to investigate more minute details and also to decide the gravity of any complaints by the patient when the situation warrants urgently.
(2) When ULTRA sound / MRI scan result needs further investigation only then CT scan is to be done rarely.
(3) In a CT scan case study in western countries which took samples from 1500 persons it is observed that 45 SUV level radiations is detected. This level radiation is dangerous for human body.
(4) It is also observed that in a detailed study conducted recently in Japan when Hiroshima was attacked by nuclear bomb in 1944-45 this was the radiation level noticed in the victims of bomb attack.

NEW BORN - VAYAMBU ADMINISTRATION.

NEW BORN ---“ VAYAMBU ” ADMINISTRATION.
Child birth is believed to be an auspicious and rejoicing event for any family. In earlier days child birth normally happened at home, naturally, when it was joint family system. Now a days due to nuclear family system, and more risk is involved, we entrust this job to a gynaecologist in a reputed hospital. Even the things has gone to the extent, to arrange for delivery of the baby in a pre determined day, auspicious star (Nakhshtra). Of course without knowing what is in store for the baby after arrival into this wonderful earth.
After delivery at hospital, normally, the mother and baby is back at home, within a weeks time. Then mother and baby is under the care of Ammamma / Achhamma as the situation may be. From the date of the birth of the baby next 12 days are observed as “Vaalama” (“ Pela ”). On the 12th day the house purified by sprinkling with “ Punyaham”. Beginning from this day the new born baby is to be administered with “VAYAMBU Kuttu ” everyday morning, and “ ANTHI GURUTHI UZIYAL ” in “Thri-sandhya”.
Vayambu kuttu consist of the following ayurvedic items : (1) Vayambu, (2) Erattimaduram, (3) Kadukka, (4) Nellikka, (5) Thannikka, (6) Masikka, (7)Rudraksham, (8)Gold, (9) Sandal, mix with fresh pure hygienic butter.
These items are available as auyrvedic medicinal compound in the market. Item no. 1 to 9 are rubbed in a “chandana chaana” and mixed with fresh butter, and administered to the baby, thrice, thinking of supernatural power (GOD) till the “ Annaprasam “(Chooroon) function, every day morning in front of lighted Nilavilakku facing east.
Administering the vayambu cleanse the baby’s mouth, tongue, stomach, intestine, and all the inner parts of the body and make it ready to receive the external food. This auyrvedic medicinal compound develops self immunity system and protect the baby from infection. This also normally reduce the later possibility of infection and related disease to the baby.

choroon (Anna Prasam)

CHOROON (ANNAPRASAM) OF THE BABY.

Earlier in the series we discussed about Vayambu Kodukkal, 28th day function.

The “Choroon” function of the baby is organised after completion of 5th, or 7th, or 9th month but definitely before completion of 12th month. Choose an auspicious day either through your wisdom or in consultation with your elders or through your astrologer.
This function can be normally arranged in any temple of your belief and choice. After the pooja in the temple the chief priest will initiate the process of “Annaprasam “. The combination of items will be explained by the chief priest. Annaprasam function is first initiated by achan, then followed by family members. The name of the baby is again told 3 times to the baby’s right ear, closing the left year of the baby with palm.
After this annaprasam baby can be gradually administered liquid food, then to semi liquid, then to solid food. It is better to give all tastes gradually.
If the Choroon is not conducted in time , the baby will start having tasting of our common food. To avoid this the choroon function is organised by taking the prasadam of the temple first.

(PS : In the next part we will discuss about the 1st Birth day of the baby.)
