Lubricate the 9 holes in your body
They are the doors to our inner body.
These 9 holes are:
1. Two Eyes
2. Two Ears
3. Two Nostrils
4. One Mouth
5. One Anus
6. One Vagina or penis
In Sanskrit these 9 holes are called ‘nava dwara’. ‘Nava’ meaning 9 and ‘Dwara’ meaning gate or door.
All these 9 holes breathe, also open and close as you breathe.
Here is an ancient Ayurvedic treatment or ritual to lubricate the human body internally:
You must apply 2 drops of plain ghee or oil to these 9 holes and drink ghee 5ml to 10ml atleast once a week.
Lubricate your Two Eyes
It is better to put ghee than oil.
Ghee is more nourishing and helps lubricate the eyes.
It takes away the dryness of the eyes and keeps the vision in balance.
If you do not want to put ghee then coconut or sesame oil are the best.
Lubricate your Two Ears
Two drops of warm sesame oil is the best for the ears, it keeps ear clean and ear wax in balance. If sesame oil does not work for you, then in summer you can put coconut oil and in winter mustard oil.
Lubricate your Two Nostrils
It does not matter you put ghee or oil. Both works best for the nose. It prevents the nose from drying out and keeps the nasal passage clean.
One Mouth
Drink ghee or oil 5 to 10ml empty stomach in the morning and it make the first nourishing juice and lubricates all the tissues.

One Vagina or Penis
Genital is a sensitive part of the body, try out what works for you. But you can apply only plain ghee or oil when you wake up in the morning or before going to bed.
