Derived from the Sanskrit tulasi (holy basil). Basil is an herb used during the worship of Vishnu, for it is said to be sacred to him. One story claims that it was produced from the hair of the goddess Tulasi; another says it was created during the churning of the oceans during the god's and demon's quest for the nectar of immortality. The name was borne by the poet and spiritual leader Tulsidas (1523-1624), the author of the Ramcharitmanas. To this day it is a sacred text, and is thought of by many to be a blueprint for proper behavior and a perfect family life |
