The Indian astrology is based on the concept of Nakshatras
(Constellations) and Rashis (as per moon signs). There are in all
27 Nakshatras present in a year and every individual has a
Nakshatra assigned to him/her depending on the date and time on
which he/she is born (the tithi).
Every Nakshatra has a symbolic tree or plant that defines its
connection with eternal nature. Each nakshatra is supposed to have
a tree of its own, and it is believed the tree of nakshatra in
which the person is born gives strength,prosperity,wealth and
health to himReferences in Sacred Texts about growing Trees.
By planting one peepul (ficus religiosa), One neem (Azadiracht
indica), one bargad (ficus bengalensis), ten Imli (Tamarindus
indica), Three Kaith (Vilaamaram(Limonia acidissima), Three vilva
(aegle marmalos), Three aonla (Indian gooseberry- Phyllanthus
embilica), and five mango (mangifera indica), one can never go to
hell. (Bhahvishya Purana, Rajdharma Kaustubh Khand)Those who plant
trees in this world beget sons in the netherworld.(Vishnudharma
91-4)Trees with flowers and fruits satisfy this world. Those who
donate a tree are given salvation by the same trees in the other
world.( Mahabharat Anu Parva 58/30)God Vishnu says that aonla
(Indian gooseberry) is holiest of all fruits in all the worlds.
Therefore it is important to plant aonla trees . By planting it,
men and women get rid of the cycle of life, death and rebirth in
this world.(Padma purana,. Srishti Khand, ch. 26, Shloka 2)By
worshipping peepul and Khejadi (Prosopis cineraria, shami) trees ,
even a barren woman begets a child.(Atharva veda Pt. 612-11 first
stanza)Wherever there are aonla trees, poverty disappears. All gods
become satisfied by aonla trees, reside in it, and do not forsake
it for a moment.(Padma purana Srishti Khand, Ch. 26, Shloka 15.)If
you water a mango tree, the ancestors feel happy.(Mahabhashya, Part
I)Lord Krishna states that He is Asvattha tree among trees. (Shri
Bagavatha Maha Purana)Plants are mothers and Goddesses. (Rig Veda
Samhita x-97-4)
Trees are homes and mansions. (Rig Veda Samhita x-97-5)
"Shri poonthanam namboodhiri who is the ardent devotee of Shree
Guruvayoorappan used to recite ShriVishnu Sahasranamam daily by
sitting in front of ShriGuruvayoorapan Maha Sannidhanam. Daily he
recites Padmanaabho MaraPrabhu: instead of Padmanaabho
Amaraprabhu:. The well versed Sanskrit scholar ,"Shri Melapathur
Bhattadhiri" and the famed composer of Naraayaneeyam often used to
laugh at his poor sanskrit. Once he was laughed at when Shri
Poonthanam Namboodhiri wrongly recited "Padmanaabho Maraprabhu" .
Maraprabhu means "Lord of trees" in malayalam. He laughed at him
and said it is supposed to be "Amaraprabhu" (lord of immortals) and
not Maraprabhu. Immediately there sounded a celestial voice that
said that "I am also Maraprabhu".. So, from this we shall know that
HE (Lord Sri Krishna) is also the lord of trees.In Ramayana,
Raavanaa placed SriSeetha after abduction in Ashoka Vanam for the
purpose i.e; Asoka trees will reduce the sorrows and increase the
peace and calm in the mind. Where Asoka Trees are grown that place
is very suitable for getting peace of mind and reduces our
sorrows.If you googled the trees name and its medicinal effects or
in Medicinal Encyclopedia, you will wonder how great our Indian
Tradition is. Physique of every human will differs based on their
astrological factors which are closely related to the trees. If he
lives near the tree based on his birth star the three naadis
(kapam,vaatham,pittham) will get equalized which is major factor
for resistance and decides the condition of body. By breathing the
air filtered by the trees his physique is maintained in such a way
to develop the resistance power in his body.
