According to Ayurveda, bilona ghee made from the milk of Indian cows is a sattvic elixir that builds ojas, the subtle substance of vital energy. It’s said that a person with strong ojas glows like the full moon.

The Vedic practice of making ghee during Purnima infuses the ghee with the vital energy and abundant qualities of the moon.

As the moon moves through Shukla Paksh, the waxing phases of the moon, it grows in its power, and culminates with Purnima, when the moon is full with its expansive energies of abundance.

Bilona ghee made on Purnima beholds the full potency and sacred energy of the moon and nourishes the subtle energy of ojas.
