Definition: Acuarys are common in Indian and South Asian folklore and mythology. They are believed to be made up of a mix of elements that have been cast in a special form by a god or goddess. In Hindu tradition, a 'pustakam' is considered an acuary. A pustakam is the result of combining two different substances into one; for example, the mixture of clay and sand can be seen as an acuary. The concept of an acuary is also used in many other Indian traditions like Nama Bhumi or Sankata Bhumi. In South Asian mythology, it is said that there are twelve types of acuities, which include: 1. Ashi: This type of acuary contains a mixture of clay and sand. 2. Kaliya: This type of acuary contains a mixture of iron and steel. 3. Prakriti: This type of acuary contains a mixture of gold and copper. 4. SankatMangal: This type of acuary is made up of different types of metal, including brass, bronze, silver, gold, copper, iron, lead, tin, zinc, nickel, and platinum. These acuities are believed to have magical properties and are used in rituals and ceremonies in various cultures.
