History:
Basil originates from
India, where it was used as a sacred herb for many centuries. It was said to
strengthen faith, compassion and mental clarity. Holy basil is known as the
herb of the Goddess Lakshmi.
In India, basil is dedicated to Vishnu and is regarded as the incarnation of his
wife, Lakshmi, goddess of fortune and beauty. Tulsi is also called upon for life
and death, for various acts of life and above all for giving children to
those who want them. According to tradition, Holy Basil protects from
unfortunate destinies and evil spirits. This Essential Oil is considered a sacred herb in India, where it has been planted
around doorways to banish evil spirits. In various parts of the Orient it is
planted around temples, and used in prayer beads.

Do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated
essences onto the skin. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage,
have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the
proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme
