Book excerpt: Ayurveda: A way of Life has been the first book ever that explains the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda in terms of modern science. It was published in India in 1990, thereafter in various European countries and America. It is a scholarly book that is meant to give the reader an insight into the classical tradition of this 5000 years old discipline. At the same time, the book is a guide in the living tradition of Ayurveda and inspires one to assimilate this age-old wisdom into daily life for enhancing energy to the optimum level. The book also highlights Ayurvedic psychology and importance of sattva (inner peace and stillness) and santosha (sense of contentment) in order to ward off the ailments. Modern medical research is directed toward finding cures for diseases, but there is little talk about finding methods to maintain good health and adopting preventive measures to avoid various ailments. Healthy living and preventive measures are not a part of the medical education. In Ayurveda, the principal focus is on maintaining good health and adopting a healthy way of living. The second important drawback in modern Western medicine is that it treats all human beings the same way. Individual differences and individual constitutions are not taken into consideration. We differ as much inwardly in our reactions and responses to a given treatment as we vary in our external appearance and personality traits. In Ayurveda, individual variations are taken into consideration and health care and treatment are based upon the individual constitution. Ayurveda is an extensive and vast source of knowledge. This book is only an introductory guide to the Ayurvedic way of life. Day-to-day practices and what we can do for ourselves in order to keep good health and bring harmony in our lives are described. Various methods for self-diagnosis, for curing minor ailments through simple measures, for preventing disease, for making simple herbal medicines, and for inner and outer cleaning of the body are discussed here. Every practical detail is explained and information about the availability of various products is provided. Ayurvedic medicines are not limited to the herbs that grow in India (especially in the Himalayas) where the original literature of Ayurveda was compiled. Identification of the herbs according to taste and other properties of the drugs are explained in detail. This book is written to help people become conscious of their health-to make them aware that a little care can save them from minor health problems, as well as from long-term health hazards. With the increasing number of ailments and a universal rise in health care costs, it has become more and more essential for each individual to make a personal effort to maintain good health. The old wisdom of rishis (sages) teaches us the use of preventive measures and mild medicine for maintaining good health instead of waiting until body and mind are exhausted and there are major disorders in the organism. The purpose of this book is to present methods people can use to improve the quality of life. For this, it is essential to begin from a new beginning. We live our lives in bits and pieces, fragmented in time, space, body, and mind. Therefore, to adapt Ayurveda in our lives, we just cannot start the application of its principles on our disintegrated beings. What I mean by a new beginning is that first we need to see and feel ourselves as a "whole," as a "unit," and an "integrity" and then we can realize our oneness with the cosmos. Holistic medicine is not possible without a holistic way of life. This book is presented in a way that will make us self-aware so we can realize our integrity as body, mind, and soul. This book is written for general readers who may not have any background of Ayurveda or medicine in general. A special effort has been made to explain the technical terms in an easy-to-understand manner. Comments and suggestions from readers are welcomed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ayurveda, which literally means "the science or knowledge of life”, is the traditional medical system of India. Its origin dates back an estimated 5-10,000 years, and it is widely considered to be the oldest form of health care in the world. Ayurveda is based on the premise that disease is the natural end result of living out of harmony with our environment. 'Natural' is an important word because Ayurveda understands that symptoms of disease are the body's normal way of communicating disharmony. With this understanding of disease, Ayurveda's approach to healing becomes obvious: to reestablish harmony between a person and environment. Once reestablished, the need for the body to communicate disharmony diminishes, symptoms dissipate, and healing is said to have occurred. Through various chapters, the author Dr.Murli Manohar gives out the Ayurvedic concepts of health & treatment, diagnosis by Ayurveda, role of diet and season in health & disease, symptoms & causes, prevention & treatment, nutrition & diet, herbal therapies & nature cure for common and chronic ailments.

Book excerpt: This simple book is for those of you who have heard about Ayurveda and think that it is somehow an exotic way of healing yourself. Complicated and strange explanations from some who are not enough educated in the domain makes Ayurveda sound formidable for many. The aim of this book is to make you understand that Ayurveda is about dynamics of life and it is not space and time bound. Ayurveda is about balance and harmony and you do not necessarily have to import products for it. Ayurveda is about your physical and emotional balance with your surrounding and nature to maintain your health and mental balance. Ayurveda is the science of health and healing from ancient India but it does not mean that the basic ideas of Ayurveda were limited only to India. There has been a constant exchange of wisdom between the East and the West since antiquity and Ayurveda assimilated tremendously from the Western wisdom of natural medicine whereas the fundamental principles of Ayurveda which lay emphasis on maintaining the basic nature of the body travelled to the West. Besides that, during ancient times, in all cultures and societies, people lived in harmony with nature and knew instinctively the necessity of balance and coordination with nature for their well being. European culture of health and healing during Middle Ages was not different from Ayurveda and it is still alive in some remote places of Europe. This of course has been more a part of oral tradition rather than a systematised, institutionalised and organised knowledge of Ayurveda. The present book is meant to provide you an experience of life by altering slightly your way of living and by avoiding all that which nastily disturbs your health by upsetting the basic balance of your body. The book is about how we can ideally and optimally learn to gear our lifestyle for our well being. Well being is not seen in the sense of fitness but it is health with inner joy and contentment. To maintain health, you need also to develop a keen sense of observation and attention to the ever changing cosmos. Our body as well as our surroundings and the cosmos we live in are dynamic and vibrant. We need to learn how to draw vitality and vigour from this dynamism. To achieve this, some effort and attention from you is required. For integrating Ayurveda in your life, you do not have to buy or order special things. The specificity of this book is that you follow the Ayurvedic way of life by using things you have always used- your apples, pumpkins, peas, carrots, your Camille, Saint John's herb, verbena and Linden teas. Besides, the book will provide you healing remedies and food recipes originating from food products like milk, ghee, lemon, various teas, herbs and spices, etc. It is important to understand that Ayurveda is not a health care system with prohibitions. On the contrary, Ayurveda suggests that for good health, joie de vivre is very important. No prohibition of any kind but we are advised to exercise restraint and not go beyond a limit where we disturb our balance.
