Ayurveda is the oldest system of medicine on Earth. The ancient scrolls and parchments called it “Eternal” as it seemed older than time, and was believed to have been passed down from Divinity.
Scientifically certified by Archeologists and Historians, Ayurveda dates back 5000 years, and was founded on the rolling plains of the Indian Subcontinent. The hermits and sages of this age rigorously practiced and handed down this discipline to their successive generation though family linage. Even then, Ayurveda was so much an evolved science that the healers of this practice were able to gather information of the state of the human body from the mere throb of a pulse.
As opposed to some misconceptions, Ayurveda is not a practice that is supernatural or magical but is an exact science that has evolved through sage old wisdom. The vaidyans (physicians of ayurveda) through the ages have been offering their curative service to nobility and poor alike without expectation of return.
The mystique of Ayurveda is attributed to the fact that it has survived its sanctity through a 5000 year history, passed down through generations of rigorous training and discipline. This resulted in the through-the-centuries accumulation of advanced knowledge and treatment in pediatrics, psychiatry, surgery, geriatrics, toxicology, general medicine and other specialties.
Today, Ayurveda is recognized as the forerunner of all the great healing systems of the world. |
