Making coconut oil at home.

  It seems so important to make coconut oil at home nowadays since the occurrence of poisonous coconut oil release in Sri Lanka. A chemical called "aflatoxicosis" had been found in the coconut oil which has many harmful effects for human body. Therefore we need to obtain coconut oil from somewhere you trust. There are several ways to make coconut oil. But when it comes to produce coconut oil at home there are some limited methods to achieve this.

At this time I'm going to discuss how you can produce coconut oil by following method which is an efficient and an easier way. 

Let's see what we require in order to proceed with this.

Scraped coconut and water to get coconut milk.

Refrigerator

Heat

First you need to scrape some coconut. Put water to the scraped coconut and get coconut milk by crushing it or you may use a blender. Now you have coconut milk. Then keep it in a refrigerator to freeze. A layer of solid coconut milk has been formed at the top. Below this layer is water. When it is freezed enough to this much, you can remove the solid layer out of this and heat it. 

Keep it in the heat until coconut oil appears. Heat it till you have all the coconut oil out of the coconut milk. 

Take it off the heat. When it's cool enough filter it to a bottle. So this is how you can obtain coconut oil from coconut milk at home by following this procedure.

Why is Vesak special? It is on Vesak that the Lord Buddha, who realized the truth of the world, was born, passed away (Parinirwanaya), and became a Buddha (Enlightened). To remember these, the Buddhist people of the world engage in various religious ceremonies for them. In the distant past of the Bodhisattva, when he was an ascetic Sumedha, the Bodhisattvas received the definitive explanation from the Lord Buddha named Dipankara on a Vesak day. Lord Buddha came to Kelaniya and placed his left foot mark on Samanala Mountain, "Sri Pada," on Vesak day. Several other very special incidents like this happened on the day of Vesak Pura Pasaloswaka. Vesak Lantern This picture shows the Vesak lantern I made for this Vesak. I bought a plastic template to make this. After that, three colors of tissue...
