Ayurveda : Nature’s blessings to Mankind

Ayurveda… Nature’s Blessings to Mankind 

Ayurveda

Ayurveda is perhaps the most oldest and most valuable gifts that nature has provided mankind. It originated in India and spread far and wide. This is a widely followed method of cure in the state of Kerala. Ayurveda is a general term for “traditional medicine”. The methods and cure mentioned in Ayurveda can be dated back to 1200 year. The manuscripts Charak Samhita and Sushruta Samhita form the core for ancient Ayurveda, which are evolved to be used in the modern days.

Now.. lets understand in detail,

What Is Ayurveda ?


What is Ayurveda
Ayurveda is an ancient system of medicine. In Ayurveda, a human body is viewed as an individual entity made up of five elements. Yes, just like how the five elements, air, water, fire, earth and ether exists in nature, it exist in our body too. They are called the Panchamahabhutas.

Practising Ayurveda can help you get rid off bodily toxins and help you attain a healthy lifestyle. Ayurveda provides us specific methods to treat the three doshas. They being Vata, Pitta and Kapha. When the toxins in the body accumulate to the large extent, then a treatment called Pancha Karma is put to use. It is a process to cleanse the body which comprises of massages, herbs, nasal cleansing, herbal baths, and nutritional diet intake.

Now that you have got an idea of what exactly Ayurveda is, Lets go more deeper into the subject.

Practicing Ayurveda


Practicing Ayurveda
For practicing Ayurveda, we first have to understand the basics of nature called Gurvadi Gunah, the five elements and the three doshas. Since we have already discussed about the five elements and the three doshas, lets have a look at the 10 qualities of nature. They are :

  1. Guru (heavy) - laghu (slow)
  2. Manda (slow) - tikshna (quick, sharp)
  3. Hima (cold) - ushna (hot)
  4. Snigdha (unctuous) - ruksha (dry)
  5. Slakshna (smooth) - khara (rough)
  6. Sandra (solid) - drava (liquid)
  7. Mrudu (soft) - katina (hard)
  8. Sthira (stable) - cala (mobile)
  9. Sukshma (subtle) - sthula (gross)
  10. Vishada (non slimy) - pichila (slimy)

By understanding and gaining knowledge on these qualities, we can analyse the body which suffers from these. Increase in any of the above can be set right by altering the opposite of that quality.

Today the importance of Ayurveda has grown immensely and many are opting for the safe and tested age old medicines to western medicine. Ayurvedic treatments such as, body massages, Yoga and meditation have a strong impact on people, with great results to back it up.

September Horoscope for All Zodiac Signs

September Horoscope
By Acharya Raman

Last month I had said that when Mars will enter Cancer, there will be accidents and mass deaths. We saw that happening in Bihar and Syria. Month of September has major influence of Rahu and Jupiter. One (Jupiter) is the most benefic of all and the other (Rahu) is just opposite. Therefore, we will be witnessing Pakistanis violating the ceasefire and getting killed in return by our brave soldiers. Violence against women will continue and incidents like rapes, acid attacks and suicides will be there. India will see further declination of its moral values. There will be clashes between people of different sects. The person presently heading the nation will face further defamation. It looks like evil will be winning over good this month, though temporarily. Religious Gurus need to be careful with their religious acts otherwise there repute will suffer a lot. People will be caught red-handed taking bribes and will largely go scot-free.

Indian Badminton League: Astro-Numerology Prediction (31.8.2013)

Indian Badminton League
By Acharya Raman

Like IPL, We are now witnessing IBL – India Badminton League. It is indeed good for the players and all are wishing that it gathers TRP to continue, online and offline. It is a good initiative and such things should also start for hockey and football. Hockey is our national game and is cornered due to the popularity of cricket. There were in fact, no sincere efforts ever made to make hockey popular. There will be several matches in this tournament and I am again trying to offer the results of the matches of this newborn IBL.

Every match will be a best of three games, with the third game a race to 11 points. In the first two games, the two-point gap rule has been dropped, so the first player to reach 21 points wins. There’ll be a minute’s break after the seventh and 14th points in the first two games and after the sixth point in third and final game.

Match

Hyderabad Hotshots Vs Awadhe Warriors
Mumbai, 30th August, 20:00


Ascendant lord: Jupiter: 21
Moon star lord: Rahu: 9
Moon rashi lord: Mercury: 9
Day lord: Venus: 9

Winner : The result is 1 so team Hyderabad Hotshots will win the match

The latter half of the month will improve your situation. Still, you will have to be very careful.  You may want to gift something expensive to your love or child; and this will of course keep your mind occupied. Don't take any decision impulsively. Stay extra cautious while driving. In times of distress, donate a piece of cloth to Hanuman ji. It will seek you some relief.

The latter half of the month will be lucky for you.  It will erase all the difficulties that you have been facing. A journey will benefit you. Your financial position will also improve.
