Life which is the combination of of the body, senses, the mind and the atma, cannot be separated from each other and cannot be neglected.I am a person from God’s own Land, Kerala and I would like to spread the glory of AYURVEDA** or the science of longevity, which is a gift from us to the world.
Ayurveda is based on universal principles and is a living, growing body of knowledge –as useful today as it was in earliest centuries.It is said that ayurveda is as old as the world itself.It’s very basis is the spiritual knowledge of the ancient seers of India and the cosmic consciousness in which they lived.It’s strength lies in its broad, all encompassing view of the dynamc inter relationship between organic physiological processes, external factors including climate, life work and diet along with the internal physiological and spiritual condition.Restoration of our fundamental balance, through the use of nature and its products, is the main goal of this medical system……Susruta the famous physician said “the object of ayurveda is the restoration to health of those who are afflicted with deseases and the preservation of sound health of those who are well”
THE SCIENCE
Ayurveda, with its tridosha or three humours systems, is able to provide a complete understanding of the cause of health in terms of a metabolic balance.Disease is simply understood as an imbalance between between the nerve energy –vata, catabolic fire energy –pittaand anabolic nutritive energy, kapha.
All foods and experiences have an effect on the overall balance of these respective humours.Imbalance of the tridoshas leads not only to impaired health, but also to an impaired mental condition, cze the mind’s health is dependent on the body’s health.
Ayurveda therefore, aims to keep the three humours in equilibrium for only then can perfect health be attained and maintained.As each individual has his own particular balance or blend of these forces, Ayurveda treatments are person specific rather than disorder specific.The physician emphasizes a regimen of diet with the use of appropriate drugs.
The treatment is carried out through the internal and external use of herbal medicine in a coordinated or integrated manner .
