Ayur Wisdom

You may have heard the saying " Eat less, live more "

He who eats once is a Yogi ( united with the Divine )
He who eats twice is a Bhogi ( lover of sensory pleasures )
He who eats thrice is a Rogi ( one with disease )
He who eats four times is a Drohi ( a harmer ) !

This is the underlying theory of Naturopathy & Ayurveda

Eka bhuktham Maha Yogi
Dwi bhuktham Maha bhogi
Tri bhuktham maha rogi
Chatur bhuktham maha drohi !

Constipation

Constipation is the root cause of all disease.

Constipation is caused by anxiety, fear, mental tension, the use of antacids etc. It is said that a man is carrying 5 to 10 pounds of putrefied faecal matter !

Taking in lots of water early morning, eating 100 grams fruits and 300 gms vegetables daily, ensuring mental peace etc will pave the way for the removal of constipation. Constipation is mainly caused by lack of discipline in diet, anxiety, taking in foods not compatible with mind, piles, disorders of the thyroid etc.

Ideal solution to constipation is light enema of Naturopathy.

Another solution which is effective is Water Therapy. Take 3 to 6 glasses of water early morning and see the result.

This is corroborated by practical experience. I had constipation right from childhood. Water Therapy really did wonders. Previously I used to take enema ( of Naturopathy ) and only after taking enama the problem was temporarily solved. Now I have been practising Water Therapy for four months and lo ! the rectal block is gone !

The glory of Celibacy or Brahmacharya !

That aspect of the Lord when He revealed medical knowledge to mankind - Dhanvantari - said that Celibacy ( Brahmacharya ) is a panacea for all human ills. Celibacy, he said, is the backbone of health. The seven tissue elements of Ayurveda, veins, bones, blood, skin, semen, fat and bone marrow are the base of the human body. Too much indulgence in sex will result in Dhatukshaya or loss of the Sapta Dhatus or the seven tissue elements.

Brahmacharya means to roam in Brahman, the Absolute, to embrace none but Him. The statement in the Geetha Yadyuchanto brahma charyam charanti means that in order to attain to Self Actualisation, the aspirants practise celibacy.

Herbal Honey wonder - Chyavan Prash

Now I am taking in that herbal tonic, Chyavana Prash.

It is a great rejuvenative. It is full of Vitamin C. Its main ingredient is the gooseberry or Amla, which is a rich source of Vitamin C.

It is based on Ghee. Ghee is considered as a Rasayana in Ayurveda. Rasayana Chikitsa is Rejuvenation Therapy as Rasayanas can rejuvenate the human body.

Longevity, memory power, intelligence
Health, youthful vitality
Verbal power, attractive lustre
All these are bestowed by Rasayanas !

So Ghee is a Rasayana and can rejuvenate the human body. Aswagandha Rasayana or the Indian Ginseng, Agastya Rasayana, Chyavana Prash - all these are great rejuvenatives !
