Jivamrut (Jiva Amrit) and its preparation method
After repeated experiments, the result was that for one acre of land, 10 kg. Cow urine, jaggery and lentil seed flour or chickpea flour mixed together with dung gives miraculous results. Eventually a formula was developed and named Jivamrut (life elixir).
Method of making Jivamrut
1. Country cow dung - 10 kg
2. Native cow urine - 8-10 liters
3. jaggery - 1.5-2 kg.
4. water -1.5-2 kg.
5. ram flour -180 liters
6. Soil under trees -500 grams
Mix the above items in a plastic barrel with a wooden stick and leave the mixture in the shade to rot for two to three days. Twice every day in the morning and evening rotate clockwise with a wooden stick for two minutes and cover the corpse with a bag. Its decomposition produces harmful gases like ammonia, carbon dioxide, methane.
In summer it should be used for seven days after death and in winter it can be used for 8 to 15 days. After that, the excess dead body should be thrown on the ground.
In the month of December, a scientific research was done on the dead body prepared in Gurukul in which maximum 7400 crore bacteria were found 14 days after the dead body was prepared. After that its number started decreasing. Both jaggery and chickpea flour played a major role in increasing the bacteria. A mixture of dung, cow urine and soil found only three lakh bacteria. When gram flour was mixed in it, its number increased to 25 crores and when jaggery was mixed in place of gram flour in these three, this number became 220 crores, but when both jaggery and gram flour were mixed, that means all the components of Jivamrut (dung, cow urine, jaggery) , gram flour, and soil) were mixed with surprising results and the number of microbes increased to 7400 crores. When this compost is applied to the field along with irrigation, the number of microorganisms in the soil is incredibly increased and the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil are improved.
