Ayurved: Ancient Wisdom For Healthier Tomorrow

Diseases are the entities, which have developed simultaneously along with the evolution of mankind. The very first mention of diseases and their various cures are found right in the most ancient literature of the world originated in the Indian subcontinent, the four Veda: Rigved, Yajurved, Samaved and Atharvaved.

Ayurved is considered to be an upa-ved (sub-scripture) of Athervaved. Ayurved is an ancient science wherein ‘Ayu’ means life and ‘Veda’ means knowledge. For centuries together, Ayurved has served millions of people by offering the complete medical therapy for a vast range of acute as well as chronic diseases. Ayurved firmly puts forward the theory to maintain health (preventive medicine). For this purpose, Ayurved has described in detail "dinacharya" (the daily regimen) as well as "rutucharya" (seasonal regimen) and "sadwrutta" (ethical regimen) along with scores of preventive therapeutic measures.

For curing the diseases, Ayurved insists on treating and eradicating the root cause of the ailment instead of satisfying the patient with symptomatic relief.

In contrary to the popular mis-belief, Ayurved is not a mere alternative therapy but a way of life, which, if followed religiously, can help one attain a better physical, emotional, social and spiritual life.
