How important is ayurveda in the present          era?

Most of the healing modalities treat only a part of the patient – the part which is considered as being ill — the material part. Ayurveda addresses the well-being of an individual in physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual planes in the belief that one cannot safely split a person into parts. For example, the Ayurvedic doctor may inquire into the way the person thinks, believing that thoughts manifest themselves in the biochemistry of the body. So in western medicine, after extensive diagnostics, often the disease or cluster of symptoms is isolated, and the disease becomes the sole area of attention. Triumph over that particular disease or set of symptoms is considered restoration of health. Not so in Ayurveda, which address the root cause of the disease, cause of its manifestation, triggering factors etc.

Also, Ayurveda is a natural therapy; hence it has fewer side effects when taken responsibly and on the advice of an expert. Most of the diseases we seen in today’s world needs a holistic approach as it is because of the result of stress, erroneous life style and diet.

Ayurveda helps us to understand about the body mind complex in a new perspective, understanding about body type, bio-energies their imbalances will help us to develop a body mind awareness. Rather than relying upon a pill to cure, Ayurveda triggers the healing energy from within.

The Ayurveda enables us to develop a tailor made diet and life style specially customized for you. Mostly adapting minor changes in the diet and life style patterns, introducing few spices and herbs can be life changing.
