Making way for the miracles of Ayurveda in the day-to-day life

The Sanskrit expression Ayurveda means "information on life," and the standards of this old wisdom advise us that the whole web of life is unpredictably entwined. With a special accentuation on total health, the craftsmanship and study of Ayurveda work to orchestrate our inner and outer worlds. Our five senses act as the gateways between the inner and outside domains, as the five extraordinary components of ether, air, fire, water, and earth dance the dance of creation around and inside us. Ayurveda gathers these five components into three essential kinds of energy and practical principles that are available in everyone and everything. Since there are no single words in English to portray these standards; we utilise the Sanskrit words Vata, Pitta, and Kapha to depict their blends. All that we experience, be it an actual substance, an idea, or feeling, has specific characteristics. The antiquated texts of Ayurveda arrange these characteristics — called gunas in Sanskrit — into 10 sets of opposites, making 20 characteristics in total (for instance, heavy versus light). In theory, everything in the universe can be depicted through these gunas, or characteristics, including the doshas. The groundwork of Ayurvedic treatment depends after perceiving when gunas have become over the top or lacking, as this is known to cause doshic imbalance and lead to sickness. Agni, the all inclusive standard of change that appears as our digestive fire, intervenes between the inner and outer, changing food into substantial tissue and waste; deciphering data into experiential information; and differentiating between nutritious material and byproduct. Ayurveda fuels the agni of the body to process poisons which have appeared because of inner or outer burdens, guaranteeing ideal working of the physical and mental being. Utilising these fundamental standards, Ayurveda tweaks preventative wellness to the novel constitution of each and every person. Moreover, old Ayurvedic specialists delivered definite depictions of acute and chronic medical conditions (complete with causes, signs, and side effects), and created broad comprehensive therapy protocols. The eight branches of Ayurveda are:


  • Kayachikitsa – Internal Medicine

  • Bala Chikitsa – Paediatrics

  • Bhuta Vidya – Psychiatry

  • Shalakya Tantra – Ear, Nose and Throat Treatment

  • Shalya Tantra – Surgery (not practised in the United States today)

  • Vishagra Virodh Tantra – Toxicology

  • Jarachikitsa/Rasayana – Geriatrics and Rejuvenation

  • Vajikarana — Aphrodisiac Therapy, Fertility, and Conception



The Origin of Ayurveda


Atharvaveda was the first sacred work in which Ayurveda found its own space. The concept of Ayurveda was the brainchild of Dhanvantari, the doctor of the divine beings in Hindu folklore, who succeeded in achieving their expertise as the pupil of Brahma. The ancient medical practices are known to be used to treat fever (takman), cough, diarrhoea, dropsy, abscesses, seizures, cancers, and skin illnesses with the help of charms that keep evil spirits at bay that were believed to bring about illnesses in people.


The advent of the clinical systems of Charaka-Samhita and Suruta-Samhita in Ayurveda from 800 BCE until around 1000 CE, credited separately to Caraka, a doctor, and Susruta, a surgeon, changed the field of Ayurveda forever.  All later compositions on Indian medication depended on these works, which dissected the human body with respect to earth, water, fire, air, and ether as well as the three substantial touches of humour (vata, pitta, and Kapha).
