Kusha grass is considered highly sacred. Sages often sit on Kusha grass mats when they do their meditation. Such mats are called "Kush Aasana". It is said that "Kush Aasana"allows the yogi to maintain that serene state of mind without being affected by the adversity of the environment surrounding him
The sanctity of dharba or kusha,is as old as the Indian gods.Puranas tell how Vishnu assumed the form of the Cosmic Tortoise (Skt.kurma) whose shell served to support Mandara,the mountain that served as a dasher in the churning of the Sea of Milk. As the mountain rotated,several hairs were rubbed from the tortoise's back.With time,they washed ashore and became Kusha.
Kusha grass is considered purifying, and rings woven of it are sometimes worn in worship to keep the hands ritually pure.It is also a remarkable insulator,both physically and metaphysically.Kusha mats can also be used with a blanket on top for sleeping on damp ground in bitterly cold weather.
