'The word Ayurveda is made up from two Sanskrit words—‘ayus’ meaning life and ‘veda’ meaning knowledge or science. Simply put, Ayurveda can be described as the ‘science or knowledge of life’, which the early scholars understood to comprise the mind, body, senses and soul. A view which is little changed today. Professor Savrikar from Podar Medical College in Mumbai agreed that “unless a person is very happy mentally we can’t say he’s healthy”.
Hence it is not simply a traditional system of medicine, but more a complete philosophy for life. Ayurveda encompasses a wide range of modalities including yoga, meditation, nutrition, detoxification, massage and the use of herb and mineral preparations. The fundamentals of Ayurveda were laid down in Vedic scripts, the earliest of which, the Rig Veda, dates back 6,000 years and contains a number of ‘prescriptions’ to help overcome various ailments.
The aim of Ayurveda is to promote health and prolong life and in so doing eliminate disease and dysfunction. The key to success involves focusing more on prevention, rather than cure, and by restoring and maintaining balance of body, mind and spirit.'
