Ayurvedic Practices

The purpose of this article is to present the link and logical affinities between Hindu scientific investigation and that of Greeks, Chinese, and Saracens, as well as to provide a comprehensive, albeit brief, account of middle ages India's entire scientific work in terms of the development of other lands.

Suffering from political suppression, burning of books, destruction of colleges, and slaughter of its practitioners, Ayurveda still survives a miracle and testament to the effectiveness of its medication in disease prevention and control.

जिनके पुर्वज महर्षि सुश्रुत निर्विवाद रूप से संपूर्ण विश्व में "शैल्य चिकित्सा" के जनक माने जाते हैं व जिन्होने संपूर्ण विश्व को आयुर्वेद का उपहार देते हुये शैल्य क्रिया की नीव रखी!

The traditional healing stream must be positioned and promoted for health and general wellbeing or otherwise called paramedical purpose. Today what we need is paramedical support in large quantity.

Even after creation of a separate ministry for AYUSH in 2014, the system remains clueless and direction less and is struggling for survival.

FSSAI granting licence to several herbal ingredients such as Thippili powder, Kasturi manjal and Mudakathan as food supplements being objected by some Siddha experts, seems quite bizarre.

Integrated health care approach should not be confused with permission to AYUSH vaid to prescribe certain allopathic drugs.

Government of India, especially the Ministry of AYUSH must clearly define and differentiate AYUSH from proven science by limiting and describing AYUSH as ancient traditional wisdom and not proven science.

The paramedical tag if is given to AYUSH and its role is defined well, not only we can eliminate cross pathy and medication health fraud but also we can re-invent the significance and relevance of AYUSH to our society.
