AYURVEDA

The name "Ayurveda" is made up of two words, ayur and veda referring to life and knowledge respectively. Joined together they mean "the science of life and longevity". Although it is considered a science of medicine it is different since the basic principle of this ancient Indian medical system describes that treatment is not merely curing of disease.Being extraordinary from the modern medical science it has a holistic approach towards diseases as Ayurveda deals with the mental, spiritual and physical body complex. More than the specific sickness it is the patient who is sought to be treated.

This theory has been a part of history for the last 5000 years. The knowledge of Ayurveda was originally passed on from teacher/Guru to disciple in the form of one to one lessons without the use of any written books. Later the knowledge was codified in the form of books (around 1000 BC). Reference of this science can also be seen in the Vedas the ancient Indian text of knowledge.

This eternal science has deep connection with the Indian philosophies viz. Sankhya, Naya, Vahishesheka, Yoga, Mimansa and Vedanta. Here the great connection has been depicted and elaborated as the co-relation between the universe and man.

It is based on the principles of Pancha Mahabhuta (five great elements) and Tridosha (three Biological humors) theory. Ayurveda describes in detail the principles of preservation and promotion of health as well as prevention and cure of diseases. It treats man as a whole. As the medicines used in Ayurveda are only plants, the side effects are nil.

The science of life and longevity guides us to maintain the balance in these three biological forces, as the imbalance in these, according to Ayurveda is the cause of all the ailments, which mankind is suffering from.
