Mrithasanjeevani is a herb that cures all diseases. In the Hindu epic, Ramayana, it was used to revive Lakshmana, who was struck down by Prince Indrajith’s poison-tipped arrows. It is a very important mantra of the Navanath Sampradaya (Sect of 9 saints and masters). It has to be recited 108 times. It is believed that doing so helps bring success in one’s ventures and good health. It is said that it can even bring a dead person back to life. This ancient mantra has many versions.

Good health, long life, mental peace, freedom from diseases, and all fears are ome of its touted benefits.

The chant is believed to enhance the potency of herbs, etc. The word ‘oshadhi’ or ‘oushadhi’ also denotes ‘medicine’. So it is believed that the hymn has a healing effect on people, when chanted. It is also recited by those seeking ‘prayschitham’ or redemption from their sins.

Also, among the gods, it is Varuna who is privy to all the actions of human beings, howsoever hidden and secretive they may be. He has the power to see deep into the recesses of the human heart. Varuna Suktam also invokes the retributive power of Varuna to punish the wicked, especially liars.
