From your grandmother's medicine cabinet to religious ceremonies, what's one pungent compound that has likely touched your life in more ways than you realise? That compound is camphor. It is a white, crystalline, aromatic substance used in households across cultures for centuries. It is extracted from the wood of the Cinnamomum camphora tree or produced synthetically. Being used in healing balms, spiritual rituals, or home remedies, camphor holds a unique place at the intersection of tradition, wellness, and spirituality.

This blog will explore camphor's surprising history, various applications, and potential benefits.

What is Camphor?

Camphor is a white, crystalline substance with a strong, aromatic odour found in the wood of Camphor laurel and the kapur tree. It is known for its cooling sensation and strong fragrance and is a popular ingredient in balms, ointments, incense, and even religious rituals.

It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine systems like Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Derived from the Cinnamomum camphora tree wood, camphor has antifungal, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic properties.  It is often applied topically to alleviate pain, reduce swelling, and treat skin conditions. It is also used in steam inhalations for respiratory relief. In TCM, camphor is valued for stimulating circulation, dispelling cold, and relieving pain, particularly in muscular stiffness and joint discomfort. Historically, it was also used to purify the air and as a spiritual offering due to its potent fragrance and perceived cleansing properties.

Types of Camphor

Camphor is available in various forms, each distinguished by its source, purity, and production method. The two primary types are natural camphor and synthetic camphor.

Camphor Uses in Daily Life

Camphor is used daily for its medical, cleansing, and aromatic properties. Camphor blocks and tablets are essential in home care, Vastu, and aromatherapy, from air purification to stress relief. 

How to Use Camphor Blocks at Home?

Place camphor blocks in closets, drawers, or corners of rooms to repel insects, eliminate odours, and maintain positive energy. 

How to Use Camphor Tablets for Aromatherapy or Vastu?

Burn camphor tablets in a diffuser or holder to cleanse the air and attract positive energy, as per Vastu and aromatherapy principles.

How to Store and Handle Camphor Safely?

Keep camphor in airtight containers away from heat, moisture, and children. Always handle with dry hands and store in a cool, dry place. 

Spiritual Uses and Rituals Involving Camphor

Camphor is used in spiritual rituals to remove negative energies, enhance focus during meditation, and invoke divine presence through its purifying fragrance.

Camphor Spiritual Uses in Hinduism and Vastu

In Hinduism and Vastu, camphor is burned during aarti and havan to symbolise the destruction of ego and negativity, attracting positivity and divine energy into the home.

Spiritual Benefits of Keeping Camphor Under the Pillow

Burning Camphor and Cloves at Night: Why It’s Done

This purifies air, removes negative energy, and promotes mental clarity and protection, especially before sleep or during stressful periods.

How to Burn Camphor Properly?

Burning camphor enhances its spiritual, medicinal, and cleansing effects while ensuring safety and effectiveness during rituals or daily home use. Here is how to burn camphor safely at home: 

How to Burn Camphor Safely at Home?

Use a heat-resistant holder or diya in a well-ventilated space; keep it away from flammable items and always supervise the flame until it extinguishes.

How to Burn Camphor for Wealth and Positivity?

Burn camphor in the morning or evening while chanting mantras or affirmations to attract wealth, remove negativity, and bring prosperity into your home.

Tools and Techniques (Diya, Camphor Holders, Diffusers)

  • Diya: Place a small piece of camphor directly in the diya bowl, and light it using a matchstick. Let it burn completely, allowing the flame and fragrance to purify the space. 
  • Camphor holders: Light the camphor inside the holder and allow the smoke to circulate gently throughout the room.  
  • Diffusers: Simply place a piece of camphor on the heated plate or dish and plug it into the device. It will slowly release the aroma without an open flame, making it safer for daily use.

Safety Tips When Burning Camphor Indoors

Ensure proper ventilation, never leave it unattended, avoid plastic or unstable holders, and keep it out of children’s reach to prevent accidents or inhalation issues.

Why is camphor used for worship?

 There are a lot of spiritual benefits of burning camphor. Camphor signifies positivity and peace, and removes all the negativity from the house. According to a few Hindu beliefs, it is used to please the Gods as well. The burning of the camphor signifies unification with the Almighty. Just like burning camphor, it does not leave any residue behind; in the same way, it signifies burning our ego from within and completely devoting ourselves to the Gods. It also helps in the purification of the air around us, thus leading to a happy and healthy life ahead. The strong aroma of the burning camphor helps in killing bacteria and viruses, which in turn purifies the environment around us.

The Aroma Of Positivity: Camphor For Vastu

Vastu Shastra is an ancient Indian science that promotes the alignment of architecture and design with nature to bring prosperity and positivity into one's life. The practice of Vastu Shastra has been around for centuries, and many Indians still believe in its principles. However, if the design and layout of a building are not in accordance with Vastu principles, it can lead to negative energies and Vastu doshas. One remedy to counter Vastu doshas is by using camphor.

Here are some ways of using camphor for negative energy and Vastu doshas:

  • Burning camphor uses: Burning camphor and cloves at night before sleeping can help purify the air and eliminate negative energy from the house. The camphor's aroma is said to have a calming effect on the mind and body.
  • Camphor diffuser benefits: Using a camphor diffuser is an effective way to counter Vastu doshas. The diffuser releases the camphor's aroma into the air, which can help purify the surrounding environment.
  • Camphor water uses: Adding a few drops of camphor oil to water and sprinkling it around the house can also help eliminate negative energy and counter Vastu doshas.
  • Camphor ball uses: Placing camphor balls in cupboards, wardrobes, and drawers can help keep clothes fresh and free from insects. It also releases camphor's aroma, which can help purify the air and eliminate negative energy.
  • Bhimseni camphor benefits: Bhimseni camphor is known for its medicinal properties and is used in many ayurvedic remedies. It is also used in Vastu Shastra practices to counter negative energy and Vastu doshas.

 Vaastu benefits from burning camphor.

Everyone in this world has had their share of problems now and then. Even the rich class of people have their own set of problems just like the middle class and the lower-class people. When their efforts of solving them practically do not result positively, many of them turn to the spiritual ways and one of the easiest ways is Vaastu-related. Here we will see Vastu’s benefits of burning clove and camphor.

  • Burning camphor and clove together brings about a good inflow of money or wealth. This camphor for money remedy is particularly useful if someone has their money stuck somewhere, usually in businesses or for someone who is facing hardships by not earning up to their deserving capabilities.

Camphor for Vaastu Dosha

Vaastu dosh is when there is no equilibrium between a human and the universal energy around. When this energy balance is disrupted for any reason, Vaastu dosha occurs. One of the ways it can be corrected is by using camphor. Camphor is burned in a Camphor lamp or an oil dispenser and kept in the south or the southeast corner of the house. This helps in removing all the negativity and restores peace in the house, thus correcting the Vaastu dosha. While some believe keeping camphor under the pillow offers various benefits, there's limited scientific evidence to support these claims.
