The fascination of minerals and gemstones
We are familiar with popular legends like the fairy princess whose tears turned to pearls and rubies scattering on the seashore!
Indians have continued to yearn for the fabled Nagmani, the ‘cobra jewel’, which brings its owner the gift of fabulous wealth! In popular lore, cobras are depicted bearing a luminescent jewel on the forehead, guarding hidden treasures!
Vedic yogi-healer with many phantasmagorical tales in his repertoire, once mentioned how he was entertained, while resting in a Himalayan cave as a fugitive from British law, by the dance of a black cobra. In the course of the dance, it spat out a lustrous gemstone that filled the cave with its brilliant glow, only to swallow it back again before vanishing from sight. He explained that aging cobras marked with tufts of long black hair where their ears ought to be, can produce such crystals out of highly concentrated venom! The stone is exceedingly poisonous, causing death even if its fumes are inhaled at close quarters.
The same yogi also spoke of once having in his possession a rare Gajamauktik, a pearl-like crystal that is formed in the skull of very old male elephant tuskers. India is also the original home of the wonderful English Crown jewels, including the Kohinoor. It produced the gems encrusting the Moghul peacock throne, and the fabled riches of many an Indian sovereign of older days. Mind-boggling precious stones in the coveted treasuries of Persia, Damascus, Bokhara and Samarkand have their origins in India. While we are not overmuch concerned about precious gemstones in this article, this serves as an indicator of the great mineral wealth that still lies unexplored in different regions of the country.
Infinite is the variety of relatively more common crystals and minerals that strew the landscape across its length and breadth, in forests, riverbeds, on mountain cliffs and inside the caves. Very often on my walks in the wilderness I have come upon astounding power crystals, untouched by the stonecutter’s hammer and chisel.
