USES
Our Skin loves sandalwood, and so it can go into all your products, put some drops into your face cream or put it on directly! Also for injuries it is fantastic!
Sandalwood has an affinity for the Kidneys/Adrenals/Urinary/UTI and with Shilajit is one of the Kidney 'go to' medz.
Supports lungs in seasonal challenges, definitely is one of the herbs for many mental disorders, and it supports the digestion in the liver and stomach!
Used by Yogis internally and also smeared on their forehead to help calm and stabilize and clarify the mind. There are even some Sadhana/Practices where you simply must have Sandalwood!
SANDALWOOD: Everything is consciousness
Once in a majic jungle, 1991ish, at a duni firepit with a proper Sadhu, I asked him why Sandalwood is so precious. He said that because the fragrance of Sandalwood is everywhere in the sandalwood tree it then represents how Consciousness is everywhere and is everything. He said that the sense of other and difference is a major agitation for the mind to process, even in the best of times, and that the landscape of our mind is like a vast field filled with tall jagged rocks. Navigating these sharp rocks heats up the mind and hinders Yoga. The sandalwood reduces the size and sharpness of all the rocks thus making the landscape of the mind much easier and cooler and less of a distraction. Thus the Yogi can pass more easily through and beyond mind into Self, into Yoga. I thought of that and how the second verse of Patanjali is 'Chit Vrtti Nirodha iti Yoga',' the resolution of the whorls in mindstuff is yoga. I saw how sandalwood, Chandan, could be a significant force generating that Nirodha, that easing of the mind's ability to cause us to identify with it.
SANDALWOOD WATERFALLS
I had a friend who grew up in Mysore, the Sandalwood capital of the world, as the son of an Ayurvedic Doctor. There was a sandalwood saw mill nearby that had a small stream flowing through it to carry all the sawdust away. Soon after leaving the sawmill the stream had a waterfall as it flowed down the mountain. All the patients with skin issues or systemic inflammation or pitta/hot mental disturbance would be told to stand in the waterfall daily! He said their healing went far beyond just removing symptoms, and that the sandalwood waterfalls would support the people to be the greatest and most spiritual versions of themselves.
