Milky Way

Milk is given an important place in one's dietary regimen in Ayurveda.It is an essential element in aphrodisiac therapy.Milk and Ghee have nourishing qualities and the positive attributes of milk are manifold. Milk is recommended before sexual intercourse as well as afterwards. The absence of milk in one diet can lead to problems. ( In todays world of pasteurized milk and additives it is not uncommon to find many people with lactose in tolerance.)





charaka's recommendation of milk as part of aphrodisiac therapy emphasizes the excellent qualities of cow's milk.

1. cow's milk given with honey, sugar and ghee is an excellent aphrodisiac.


2. one should keep the cow fed on black gram leaves or sugarcane or arjuna leaves, well nourished, with four nipples, of brown or black colour, with her horns pointing upwards and giving thick milk. The milk of such cow alone, either boiled or unboiled with sugar added along with honey and ghee is an excellent aphrodisiac. (ca.ci.2.3:3-5)


3. The milk of the above said cow, boiled with a golden ring and with the ghee, honey and sugar added afterwards provides progeny.(ca.ci 2.3:11)
