	Vibhuti - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Vibhuti is the name for sacred ash used in religious worship in Hinduism, especially connected with Lord Shiva.
		It calls to the good of ridding oneself of selfish and base worldly desires that wrap the self in Maya (illusion) just as Shiva burned the god of desire, Kama, to ashes when he attempted to break Shiva's focus on the Divine Truth.
		Vibhuti or Vibhooti also refers to the paranormal powers that Sage Patanjali claims that one can develop by the practices described in his book on Yoga Sutras, part of body of Hindu philosophy.

	Salagram kosha Chapter ONE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The concept of ‘vibhuti’ of godhead is an important one in the philosophy of worship.
		The expression ‘vibhuti’, which is as old as ‘’Rgveda (1, 8, 9 ‘evahita ibhutayah indram avate’ and 6, 21, 1 ‘raviv vibhutir iyate vachasa’) is used in the sense of might or power, as well as in the manifestations of Godhead in the tenth chapter of Bhagavad-gita.
		Whatever is the vibhuti of the one godhead is to be regarded as identical with the godhead, and not as a part thereof or as a mere representation of some principal referring to the godhead.

		The cowdung itself is regarded as sacred, and the Vibhuti obtained by burning it is considered to be a sign of wealth.
		Vibhuti thus reminds us ultimately of the fact that only ashes remain when a thing is burnt completely, or only Para Brahman remains in its pure and white form.
		When Vibhuti is worn on the forehead, it reminds us of Isvara and the forehead on which the bad thing has been written by Brahma gets the grace of God, and therefore the obstacles, miseries, sorrows and sufferings become less and do not affect us very much.

		Vibhuti (meaning glory) or Bhasma (that by which our sins are destroyed and the Lord is remembered) is the holy ash that Hindus apply over their forehead and body.
		The vibhuti we apply indicates that we should burn false identification with body and become free of the limitations of birth and death.
		Vibhuti or Bhasma has medicinal properties and is used in many ayurvedic medicines.

		Originally, 'Vibhuti' was derived as the highly potent 'Bhasma' [ash] arising out of 'Homams' performed with a plethora of medicinal herbs and leaves.
		For instance, smearing of "vibhuti" on the forehead after a bath in cold water would absorb the excess moisture in the head region and thus guard against sinus trouble.
		Similarly, "Vibhuti" would be applied to other phlegm-prone areas such as the throat, chest, etc. Hence the practice of smearing 'Vibhuti' all over the body started off as a medicinal application, became a custom, and still later, became the identification mark for the Shaivites [followers of Shiva cult] of South India.

		Like all vibhuti, whether materialized out of Sai Baba's hands, formed on photographs, or even on the walls of houses, one can use it for healing purposes, or to deepen one's spiritual connection.
		It is quite amazing to see vibhuti forming on a glass, as this ash is very fine, and one couldn't stick it to a photograph or the glass covering it no matter how hard you tried.
		Yet it forms in large clumps that may grow to be a quarter of an inch deep before the weight causes the vibhuti to tumble to the ground.

	Yoga Sutras: Chapter 3
		Vibhuti Pada (chapter 3) begins with dharana (concentration) which is the sixth limb.
		Vibhuti can mean the extinction of the gross elements (bhuti) into their most subtle refinement or essence which is often symbolized by sacred ash that often mysteriously appears in the presence of a siddha (accomplished one).
		So, yes, Vibhuti Pada (Chapter III) although generally judged to be the least important and least useful of the four chapters (it could be skipped entirely without lessening the purport of the sutras); it is strongly suggested that the profundity of samyama and parinama alone may well make the chapter well worth studying.

	An Indian Skeptic's explanation of miracles By "Anti-Guru" B. Premanand
		When they produce vibhuti or some other thing, it has to be hidden in their hands or the body, as they make the same movements of the hands and the body like a magician.
		The godman's devotees argue as to how vibhuti which is in powder form can be hidden in the palms when the palm is kept down and moved in circles.
		These balls are hidden between the thumb and the pointing finger and after circling the hand palms down and while raising the hand to produce vibhuti, bring the vibhuti ball to the finger tips, powder the same and give it to the devotee.
