High Resolution Roses Photos, widescreen, 4:3, 16:9 and HD wallpapers..The association of roses with Indian history goes back to the very beginning of time. India has had an unbroken thread of civilization stretching to well over 5000 years. The archaeological sites of the " Indus Valley Civilization " - Harappa, Mohenjodaro, Dolavira etc. date to around 3000 B.C. and show a very advanced culture - well planned, geometrical grid-constructed cities, with wide streets, brick houses, zoning, water supply, sewage disposal systems etc. which were carefully coordinated. However, earliest Indian history is based on oral not written words. The Hindu view of past has traditionally centered on myths, legends and folklore, an oral tradition prone therefore to distortions and revisions. But those legends which persist have a cachet of authenticity. One such about a discussion between the two Gods, Brahma, the creator and Vishnu , the protector, on which flower was the most beautiful . Brahma favoured the lotus and Vishnu the rose. After seeing the arbour laden with fragrant roses in Vishnu's celestial garden , Brahma acknowledged the supremacy of the rose over all the flowers , including the lotus. Another legend has it that Vishnu created his consort, the Goddess Lakshmi out of the rose. Whilst most authorities claim she was created out of the lotus, as a rosarian I would prefer to believe it was the rose.
The presumption that legends such as these have a stamp of authenticity is because the abode of the Gods . again according to legend , were the Himalayas - the sweeping range of snowcapped mountains from the northwest to the northeast of India, which are home to more than 15 species of wild roses - roses which grew from time immortal , as substantiated by the medical treaties of Charaka and Susruta, founders of the Indian system of medicine called Ayurveda. They are believed to have lived in the 1st century B.C. The medicinal properties of the different rose species were well known and the characteristic Sanskrit name ( the language in which all ancient texts were written )given to each rose signified its curative properties for particular ailments. For example , in the Charak Samhita (i.e. the treatise of Charaka) the rose was named in 8 different ways - "satapatri" ( having 100 petals) - centifolia perhaps?, "sivapriya" (loved bt God Siva who lived on Mount Kailash in the Himalayas), "Saumyagandha" ( having a pleasant smell), gandhyadya, susita, sumana, suvritta, satapatrika, - i.e. it is cool, bitter, laxative, an appetizer, cures fever and boils, lessens stomach burning etc. The rose was also called atimanjula, sevantika and tarunipushpa.
The wild roses of the Himalayas are R. brunonii, R. sericea, R. webbiana, R. foetida, R. longicuspis, R. macrophylla, R. gigantea, R. beggariana, R. eglanteria, R. laevigata, R. baksii and R. bracteata.
