Greetings from Karma Ayurveda Hospital

Intrinsically, Ayurveda is a Hindu medicinal system with its recognition all around the world. There are beliefs of the early existence of Ayurveda in the universal consciousness (Brahma) before it reached the ancient Indian Gurus from the creators. Sushruta, one of India’s ancient physicians, in his book Sushruta Samhita says that the Hindu god of Ayurveda (Dhanvantari) had incarnated himself as the monarch of Varanasi and shared his knowledge of medicine to the group of physicians, including him. The word Ayurveda is taken from Sanskrit, which means “life of science.” Here, Ayu stands for life, and Veda stands for science. The knowledge of Ayurveda is not just limited to India, but it has become the roots of other traditional practices, such as the Chinese Traditional system and Tibetan Traditional System.

Many herbs of Ayurveda have their connection with the ancient period from 3300-1300 BCE. Moreover, Atharvaveda contains 114 hymns that indicate the origins of Ayurveda and cures for diseases. Despite the ancient time, Ayurveda is still in practice. Ayurveda consists of eight ways in which it can diagnose an illness. They are called Mala (stool), Nadi (pulse), Druk (vision), Moortra (urine), Sparsha (touch), Aakruti (appearance), and Shabda (speech). In addition, Ayurvedic practitioners use five senses for the diagnosis of a disease.

Ayurvedic medicines are broadly classified into eight components. The names of seven basic tissues of the human body in Ayurveda are plasma (rasa), muscles ( Mamsa), blood (Rakt), fat (Meda), semen (Shukra), Bone ( Asthi), and marrow (Majja). Moreover, the bodily substances are divided into five classical elements in Ayurveda as earth, air, water, fire, and ether.

According to Ayurveda, no matter what twenty inherent characteristics are further organized in ten pairs as viscous/liquid, unctuous/dry, soft/hard, heavy/light, dull/sharp, non-slimy/slimy, stable/mobile, minute/gross, cold/hot, and smooth/coarse. Vata, Pitta, and Kapha are the three important elements of Ayurveda. When these three elements stay balanced, it results in good health, whereas the imbalance causes the disease. Ayurveda is hoarded with the efficiency to treat any disease from its cellular level and in rejuvenating the damage caused to the organs or the cell so that no one has to collide with the same disease in the future.

“True medicines come from the earth and not from the lab.”
