COCONUT – COPRA

Copra coconut, obtained from dried coconut kernels, is significant in various cultural and religious contexts, including Pooja (worship) in India. In Hindu rituals, coconuts, often in their copra form, are offered to deities as a sacred offering. The round, white appearance of copra symbolizes purity, and the water inside is considered to represent the divine essence. Copra coconuts are integral in Pooja ceremonies, where they are broken as an act of devotion, invoking blessings, and symbolizing the breaking of the ego to attain spiritual enlightenment.
