Abstract

The Mahamrityunjaya mantra is one of the oldest and most powerful mantras in Indian religious tradition, and is considered to have the ability to ward off untimely death. The mantra is quite short, consisting of 12 words, but each word is highly significant as regards the impact on health. The present article hinges around the significance of the three words “ Sugandhim pushti vardhanam”, that form part of the mantra. These words can be translated as : “Fragrance enhances well-being”. It is already known that smells perceived by the brain are inextricably inter-twined with emotions and memory, and that odours can affect mental and physical health in several ways. It is also now being recognized that molecules of aromatic compounds and fragrances can easily reach the brain through the nose. In fact, the ancient Indian medical texts and seers have always considered the nose to be the “Gateway to the Brain”.

Novel pharmaceutical formulations are being currently developed to deliver drug molecules to the brain through the nasal route. The recent discovery of brain lymphatics supports the view that fragrant substances can easily access the brain via the cribriform plate, along the filaments of the olfactory nerve. The brain being the master controlling organ of the body, influences all bodily functions. Thus, any aroma molecule, after entering the brain, can easily impact brain neurons, and thereby modulate other systemic functions, in part through the autonomic nervous system. Aroma compounds can also affect various body tissues through another mechanism involving extra-sensory olfactory (smell) receptors. These smell receptors are present on the cell membranes of tissues of several body organs, and can perceive and respond to the inhaled aroma compounds, reaching the tissues through the blood stream. It is hence apparent that pleasing aromas can positively affect human health, enhancing well-being and longevity.
