Sacred trees (Sthalavrikshas) are important not only for their botanical, economical, medicinal, environmental, religious and mythical values but also forms an important biological heritage of our nation that plays role in the conservation of environment and biodiversity. The present study dealt with the survey of the trees of some temples in and around Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu. The study documented about fifteen plants associated with twenty temples. Key words: Sacred Trees, Biological uses, Ecological heritage, sthalavrikshas, Tiruchirappalli..
2 INTRODUCTION Sacred Trees (Sthalavrikshas) have a unique place in the fabric of Indian heritage. Trees symbolize knowledge and spirituality. In ancient times, the trees were worshipped along with Gods and established in the temples as Sthalavrikshas i.e. trees associated with the deity in the temple and become an inseparable part of the faith. Such trees were guarded and their saplings from mother plants were given to other temples. Trees such as Ficus, Neem and Tamarind are the abode trees of spirits and propitiated by tying toy cradles when desiring a child or at the birth of an infant. Similarly, they tie a black cloth sometimes with salt in it to ward off the evil eye. Similarly, yellow and white cloths are tied in fulfillment of a vow. Ayurvedic and Siddha physicians come to the temple market, not only to gather herbs but also to swap information about many medicinal properties. They also conduct clinics during sojourn. Many temples have Sthalavrikshas, as in worship of Shiva, Aegle marmelos (Vilvam) is preferred. Similarly, Ocimum sanctum (Tulasi) is favoured for the worship of Vishnu, while Nymphaea stellata (Lotus) is a popular choice for offering to all deities. The leaves, flowers and roots may also be added to create fragrant garlands and garlands may be wrapped in either leaf or bark of the plantain. The sheath of the leaf base of Areca tree may also be used to pack and transport flower garlands. The common plants in use are Jasmine, oleander, marigold, leafy branches of Tulasi, tender shoots of Marikozhundhu, Vilvam and roots of Vettiver. Sthalavrikshas are valued for their botanical, medicinal, environmental, religious and mythical importance. The Sthalavrikshas of Tamil Nadu constitute a part of genetic resources for the conservation of species diversity. Many living organisms including man depend upon the plants for their food, shelter and medicine. Propagation of Sthalavrikshas in temples contributes to the conservation of our floral diversity. Some trees are important for their economic role in ship building or in the timber industry, some for their produce, some for providing homes for various animals, birds and others for their medicinal and air purifying qualities. Usually Ocimum sanctum and Aegle marmelos are given to the worshippers after their prayer in Vishnu and Shiva temples respectively. This habit shows characteristically the importance of medicinal plants in Indian System of Medicine. Medicinal parts of the Sacred Trees (Sthalavrikshas) are used in different forms. It is given in the form of paste, juice, dried powder and made into tablets and juices mixed with sugar and honey to cure various diseases. (Trivedi Priya Rajan 1996; Amirthalingam 1998; Jain 2004). Since no serious attempt has been made so far to study the Sacred Trees (Sthalavrikshas) of Tiruchirappalli, the present study was under taken to survey and document the Sacred Trees associated with various temples. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty temples of Tiruchirappalli were visited during the period of June 2008 to May 2009 and sixteen Sacred Trees were recorded (Table 1) & (photo slides 1 4). It was noted that the same species appeared in more than one temple. Herbarium of the Sacred Trees was preserved at the Department of Botany, Holy Cross College (Autonomous), Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu. Tiruchirappalli, an ancient city of the Cauvery delta is one of the greatest cities of south India situated at the very centre of Tamil Nadu, is equidistant from almost all the major cities of the south including Chennai, Bangalore, Tirupati and Trivandrum. It enjoys a strategic importance which is in tune with its age old agriculture pre-eminence, and its ever growing industrial, commercial and educational advancement. Tiruchirappalli not only abounds in temples but also harbours lot of medicinal plant wealth. It is one of the places of historical importance in Tamil Nadu. The temples in and around the town, the Mainguard gate and the church with its tall pinnacle speak of its glorious past. It is a place of pilgrimage for people of all religions. It is encircled by a number of other pilgrim centers like Srirangam, Thiruvani kovil, Samayapuram and Vayalur.
3 Photo slides 1 & 2 1. Samayapuram Mariayamman - Azadirachta indica, 2. Srirangam - Sri Ranganathar - Calophyllum inophyllum L RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The Sacred Trees documented from various temples visited are presented in Table-1 along with the name of the place, temple, deity, binomial and common name. The botanical features, ecological, economic and medicinal potentials were enumerated based on the literature surveyed (Chakraberty 1993; Gamble 1967; Airy Shaw 1973; Ambasta 1986; Bentley Robert & Trimen Henry 2000; Mathew 1983; Sood et al., 2005). Aegle marmelos Corr. (Rutaceae) is a small medium sized thorny tree with a spreading crown. The transpiration of leaves helps in maintaining the humidity of the immediate surroundings. The root system helps in retention of water in the soil. The wood is suitable for making charcoal. The gummy substances in which the seeds remain embedded are used as an adhesive, varnish and in cementing. The yellow dye is obtained from the unripe fruits. A drug balae fructose extracted from the fruits with mucilage and pectin content is very useful for treating chronic diarrhoea, dysentery, hemorrhoids and swellings. The leaf juice mixed with black pepper is used to treat jaundice. The antibiotic potential of the leaf, fruit and root helps in curing diarrhoea, dysentery, asthma and fever. The bark and root are soaked in water over night in a copper vessel are used to cure blood pressure, diabetes and leprosy (Venkatesan et al., 2009; Rajan et al., 2011). Ficus religiosa L. (Moraceae) is a large tree with well-developed crown and few low buttresses. The tree releases a considerable amount of oxygen and one tree can supply the oxygen requirement of 6 persons per day. It is a suitable plant species to be planted around the industrial area. The smoke of the twigs possesses germicidal and antimicrobial effect that kills the germs of the environment. The twigs of the plant are used in yagnas. Leaves are used as good fodder for elephant and cattle. Wood is used for making packing cases, articles and match sticks. Bark is used in tanning. Fruits and tender leaf buds are eaten. Latex after hardening is used as lac or sealing wax. The juice of the bark is astringent and used as mouth wash for curing toothache and strengthening gums. The juice extracted by soaking pieces of tender bark in water over night is given for excessive urination during jaundice. The dried fruits are pulverized and given to women during child birth as folk remedy (Uma et al., 2009; Inder Kumar Makhija et al., 2010).
