knew this to be the only solution to the problems of health.
it is said that the lord Brahma blessed the humans
with the Brahma-Samhita. Fourth Veda, the Atharva, it is a
treatise on the way of the nature towards perfect health.
Atharva contains the eight divisions of the Ayur-Veda.
Ayurveda is a Sanskrit Word meaning the "Science of life".
Many herbs used in Ayur-Veda are fabled to induce eternal
youth and even raise the dead to life (like the
Mruthasanjeevani mentioned in the great Ramayana) Charaka,
Susrutha et-al, who lived in the sixth century B.C. wrote
treatises based on which the present day Ayurveda has grown
as a medical and clinical discipline. Defying the onslaught
of the modern medical system in the last century, The Ayurveda
has retained its ageless appeal-mysterious, even magical-but
efficacious.
In modern ages stress is rapidly becoming an all pervasive ailment. It
needs careful treatment given to it. The Pancha Karma or the
5 types of `sodhana’ therapy is more than a cure for stress
and strain. By eliminating the waste products from the body, it tones up the
nerves, improves the circulatory system and has an
additional effect of rejuvenation and increasing vitality in
body.
Stress vanishes and the body relaxes in tranquility. It
cures as well as prevents degenerative diseases, nervous and
mental disorders, paralytic conditions, different types of
rheumatism, dyspepsia, diabetes, obesity etc.
