'By means of aushhadhiyoM (herbs, drugs, medicines) various kinds of sidhhis are come to be seen. When I was staying in the jungles, on several occasions Kola and Bhilla (wild tribals) came and informed me of the attributes of aushhadhiyoM. One time a Bhil brought one such which would make a tiger senseless who saw only a little of it from afar. By means of aushhadhiyoM a human being can live several hundred years. By means of aushhadhiyoM many siddhis can come. So there are also aushhadhiyaa.N that give the strength to fly for the one who puts it in the mouth.' ['Shri Shankaracharya UpadeshAmrita' kaNa 35 of 108 (extract)]
