Hermal seeds are considered sacred in various parts of Asia and the Middle East.

In Zoroastrian & Muslim culture, the seeds are burnt on charcoal to rid children of the Evil Eye . A short verse is recited as the smoke is circled around the child’s head. Aspand is also used to bring blessings after one has performed a sorrowful rite, such as attending a funeral.

Herbasense Harmal seeds are of the highest grade.
