The Divine Mother likes very much to chew the betel roll (Vitika) laden with Camphor. The smell or fragrance of this betel roll is pulling devotees from every direction in the universe towards the Divine Mother seeking Her blessings.

Many fragrant medicinal value materials are added to this betel roll. The materials such as Cardamom, Camphor, Coconut, Black pepper, Ginger, Lime and many more fragrant  ones go in to this betel roll.

This betel roll’s fragrance from the Divine mother’s mouth spreads far and wide. Her devotees are attracted from all over the universe to seek her blessings.

The purpose is to get the attention of devotees with such fragrance spreading and to draw them closer to Her to get Her blessings and kindness.

Close enough meanings for some words used in this article:
·        Vikita: Small sized beda or tambulamu or betel roll
·        Laden: heavily loaded or weighed down
