Ayurveda or Ayurvidya

Ayurvidya is the spiritual boon for global well-being. May the entire world be well is its mag-

nanimous motto ! Ayurveda is the science of life epoch close to live and soul . Ayurveda experts

primarily considered the live and soul as the science of age. It is not a matter how long we live.

It matters when we live with the spirits, colour and fragrance spreading around throughout our

life. Ayurveda consider the internal and external growth of body. If the internal growth is ourished, the external sufferings would be minimized. Likely, if the external growth is flourished,

the internal growth

would be swift . But, the Ayurveda is harmonizing the quintessence of soul and body. Ayurveda literally means the ‘life-knowledge’ is derived from Atharva Veda in Indian system. Ayurveda

names three elemental substances, the doshas (called Vata, Pitta and Kapha), and states that a

balance of the doshas results in health, while imbalance results in disease. Ayurveda has eight

canonical components . Some of the oldest known Ayurvedic texts include the Suśrutha

Sa�hitā and Charaka Sa�hitā. Dhanwanthari, Charaka, Agasthya, Susrutha, Nagarjuna etc. are

the forefathers of the Ayurveda. The canonical components of Ayurveda are derived from

classical Sanskrit literature, in which Ayurveda was called "the science of eight components".

Diagnosis

Ayurveda has eight ways to diagnose illness, called Nadi (pulse), Mootra (urine), Mala (stool)

Jihva (tongue), Shabda (speech), Sparsha (touch), Druk (vision), and Aakruti (appearance).

Ayurvedic practitioners approach diagnosis by using the ve senses. For example, hearing

is used to observe the condition of breathing and speech. The study of the lethal points or

marma is of special importance.

Ayurveda ourished throughout the Indian Middle Ages. Dalhana (BC. 1200), Sarngadhara

(BC. 1300) and Bhavamisra (BC 1500) compiled works on Indian medicine. The medical

works of both Sushruta and Charaka were also translated into the Chinese language in

the 5th century,and during the 8th century, they were translated into the Arabic and

Persian languages. The 9th-century Persian physician Muhammad Ibn Zakariya Al-Razi

was familiar with the text. The Arabic works derived from the Ayurvedic texts eventually

also reached Europe by the 12th century. In Renaissance Italy, the Branca family of Sicily

and Gaspare Tagliacozzi (Bologna) were influenced by the Arabic reception of the

Sushruta's surgical techniques.

Arabian Heritage

It is evidenced that the Ayurvidya treatment of Arabia is as old as the time of Sulaiman Nabi

(PBUH). The bedrock of modern Ayurveda or Unani is derived from the principles of

Lukhman Ul Hakheem Khoja (PBUH). He was a renowned physician of that time and there

are many historical transcripts on his works. Once a leprosy patient approached him and

requested for cure from his diseases. He diagnosised and asked him eat wild scorpion

which the cobra makes bait. He was confused and disappointed. On his way to home he

found a cobra eating a wild scorpion. He killed the cobra and ate the scorpion and suddenly

cured from the symptoms. He praised Allah as well as the scholar Lukhman Ul Hakheem.

The theory later he understood was that all types of wild scorpions are not edible. There are

some types of wild scorpions of which a bite could last in sudden death. That was the

reason he prescribed such a scorpion cobra could eat. He had discovered a lot of such panaceas to the mankind.

Learning from him and his successors, the Thangal pedigree who migrated from Arabia

with the ancient Islamic evangelists and spread across the Unani and Ayurvidya doctrines.

They have contributed for the development of Ayurveda in India from their knowledge and

experience. Still the successors are practicing the treatment which is a complex of Arabian

Ayurvidya, Unani and Indian Ayurveda.

Mission

Our mission is to serve the people without any greediness for their well being. The principles of Arabic and Indian Ayurveda is that treatment is not career. But, it is a teaching from

Allah without any monitory ambitions.

Vision

Our vision is to support the entire world for healthy well-being. “Samastha Loko Sukhino

Bhavanthu” is our vision. Healthy people is the asset of a wealth nation. Most of the

ailments are resulted from the wrong practices of life style. We have the responsibility for

the nation. Healthy people contribute for the nation and unhealthy people destroy the

harmony. We will strive all our efforts for the awareness of the healthy well-being of society.

Objective

Our objective is a well being world and we strive to contribute our little effort to maintain

such an atmosphere. We know we are too little to dream such a big global task. But we have

faith on like minded philanthropists around us. All religions have preached to help the

victims. Islam considervisiting and praying for the diseased as a ‘farllu’ (duty). Although

disease is a warning from Allah, he himself have preached us for the remedy. It is the duty of

a physician to recall the diseased from death to life. However, today’s commercialized

culture is preventing us from doing our duty. It is sin to bargain with the diseased for his life.

But, we have enough examples around us the stories of commercialization. Specialty and

super specialty hospitals are squeezing the public. Their motto is just making money,

although the medical ethics do not allow such practices. Allopathic practitioners are worsening the arena. However, we have noticed a trend of Ayurvedic practitioners also follow

the suit. In Ayurveda, accepting remuneration or compensation is a sin. They do not practice

for monetary benet, but as a duty of their existence. They only accepted ‘dakshina’ or

rewards. We also follow the same system to a long extend. We are charging only the cost

incurred for the preparation and the raw materials. We uphold our forefathers’ doctrines.

We follow all principles in the production of medicines. None of the medicines are prepared

using electric energy. Ancient methods are followed to uphold the virginity of the system.

Personal care is given all along the preparation of the medicine. The methods of old

authentication are strictly followed for the total benet from the medicines. Most of the

medicinal plants are grown in our own groves and remaining medicinal plants are bought

from dependable farmers after lots of scrutiny. We know that since the unhealthy cultiva-

tion and using of non-organic methods, fertilizers and pesticides, the medicinal value of

plants have diminished. We are pledged to use only organic plants and medical properties.
