"In India, turmeric is not just a spice but it has also a religious connotation, since centuries ago. It is, if used for this purpose, to be considered as a purification agent. Purifying the body and soul. Manjal Neerattu, which means bathing with turmeric water, is a ritual followed by the people of Chengannur, Kerala, at the Vandimala temple. Boiling the water mixed with turmeric powder, they, using palm leaves, whip their bodies with the boiling hot concoction." – Aashit Desai
