Bringing human hearts together? Making the world small? Spreading and mixing cultures and knowledge? Marketing worldwide? Forgetting ourselves? Adopting practices of other geographical regions?

Ayurveda- The Science of Life
Submitted by DrPrasanna on 29 September, 2007 - 15:20.Ayurveda is the oldest yet living holistic health tradition in the whole world. The word Ayurveda comes from two Sanskrit words, ‘ayus’ meaning life and longevity, and ‘veda’ meaning knowledge or science. Thus in the name ‘Ayurveda’, we find its essential meaning and purpose – the complete knowledge of how to live daily life in harmony with nature.

Importance of Abhyanga (Oil application)
Submitted by DrPrasanna on 26 September, 2007 - 12:25.Ayurveda, being a holistic health system, recommends oil application to the whole body as a daily regimen. Oil application followed by exercise, dry powder scrub and warm bath/shower will enhance circulation, nourish muscles-bones, remove toxins, give good color-complexion and thus render longer and healthier life. It is good for eyes and improves muscle strength and sleep.

Can Sports Medicine Benefit from Ayurveda?
Submitted by DrPrasanna on 24 September, 2007 - 14:35.Sachin Tendulkar got operated again…..!!! Sania Mirza needs an operation….!!! Don’t worry these are old news. But it becomes important to think ‘Why?’ Sports personalities like them are just in their twenties and thirties! Why should a youth in this age group suffer from such problems? Such problems are seen usually in old age, isn’t it?
