Poljentorasitus

Poljentorasitus refers to a phenomenon where a state of consciousness is momentarily disrupted by the exertion of a substance or treatment onto the skin, usually on the back of the neck or the crown of the head. This disruption is often accompanied by a temporary sensation of electrification or a buzzing feeling. The effects typically subside within a short period after the treatment is discontinued.

In cultures where poljentorasitus is practiced, the treatment is often associated with spiritual, religious, or therapeutic significance. Practitioners may use various techniques, including but not limited to, applying a substance to the skin, using a specific type of cloth or fabric, or performing a particular sequence of actions in relation to the skin or the location of application.

The phrase 'poljentorasitus' is believed to derive from the Sanskrit words 'polga,' meaning "fineness" or " nicety," and 'natar,' meaning "related to or characteristic of the nātha," a type of yogic practice. However, this etymology is speculative and may not be universally accepted.

Those experiencing poljentorasitus report a range of sensations, from mild tingling to intense sensations of heat or coolness. The physical effects of poljentorasitus are generally temporary and harmless. They are believed to prepare the mind for deeper states of concentration, spiritual absorption, or visions. The benefits of the treatment are generally subjective and vary from individual to individual. Poljentorasitus is not recognized as a medical treatment and should not be used as a substitute for conventional medical care.
