Any set of 24 ragas will be wonderful. No need to be picky. Make sure pratimadhyama ragas get an equal share. Begin with Shanmukapriya and end of course with Surutti. Do share it with us for sure..

I have no clue what many of these diseases are in allopathic terms - but I am sure if this were composed in modern terms, it would include many ills pertinent to the times we live in!

i remember posting a reply, and it seems to have disappeared! but then, I probably forgot to click on submit.. :$
The mRtyunjaya mantra and several stotra-s like vaidyanAthASTAka, and the various kavaca-s addressed to narasimha, hanumAn, durgA etc. call upon different names of the respective deity to protect each part of the body.
Among songs -
durusugA krpajUci in saveri (shAma shAstri) says 'aroga-dRDha-sharIramunu salupu nanu'
emanticchEvo in sahAna (tyAgaraja) says 'yashamAyuvu sadbhaktiyu.. susharIramosangE rAma!'

Thanks for the explanation. I have always wondered what all those words in the kavacam meant. While many of the words sound terrifying, (like kaTTu kaTTu kadaRiDa kaTTu and muTTu muTTu muzhigaL pidungida) we cannot deny that it sounds so very rhythmic and poetic.
One of my friends is against reciting the kavacam as he says it talks about being violent against the people who are not good to you. Is there anything in the kavacam talks about taking revenge against people who are your enemies or against you?

There is no jihad in Hinduism.
Also there is no forceful conversion to Hinduism.
There are folks who have been fanatical about their personal Gods. But that is not part of the Hindu Faith!
