| *Principle
of Ayurveda*
The
principles of Ayurveda are an invaluable link to understanding,
in detail, naturally healthy living.People
everywhere are realizing the importance and benefits of taking personal
responsibility for one's own well being, making Ayurveda the perfect
system of health knowledge for today's world.Ayurveda
is a science of life so to know more about it, we must know what
is life? Life according to Ayurveda is a combination of senses,
mind, body and soul.
So
it is clear from this definition of life that Ayurveda is not only
limited to body or physical symptoms but also gives a comprehensive
knowledge about spiritual, mental and social health.The
words like soul and spirituality might sound outdated or create
a negative thinking in some of you as they have no place in modern
science.As
soon as we hear about these topics, we become uncomfortable. Actually,
I don't feel that it is our fault. No one has ever spoken about
these things to us.We
are always trapped in the attractions of outer material world to
become happy and peaceful.
The
modern society, education, culture and the television- everything
speaks about materialism. If this was everything why is it so that
most us are unhappy.There
is unrest, anxiety, mental tension, fighting and terror every where
despite best efforts being made to stop them. This is because some
part of our body is not being nourished properly.The
classical Ayurvedic texts describe an ancient civilisation where
the presence of illness was unknown.Even
today, Ayurveda serves to maintain, promote and restore good health
as well as preventing illness.
