About Ayurveda
In
India & surrounding regions, Ayurvedic medicine is the dominant
herbal tradition. It is the oldest system of healing
in the world, predating even chinese medicines.
Today it is actively promoted by the Government as an alternative
to the conventional western medicine.
The
name Ayurveda derives from two Indian words Ayur-means life&
Veda - knowledge or science.
Ayurvedic medicine more than a system of healing it is a way
of life it aims to bring about a union of physical, emotional
& spiritual health, known as swasthya. This state enables
the individual to enter into a harmonious relationship with
cosmec consciousness. Ayurveda evolved over five thousands years
ago in the far reaches of the Himalayas from the deep wisdom
of spritually enlightened prophats, or rishis. Their wisdom
was transmitted orally from teachers to disciple, eentually
set down in Sanskrit poetry known as the Vedas. The most important
of these texts are the Rig Veda & Athar Veda. In about 800
BC, the first Ayurvedic Medical School was founded by Punarvasu
Atreya. He & his pupils recorded medical knowledge in treatises
that wood in turn influence Charaka, Scholar who lived &
taught around 700 BC. His writings, the Charaka Samhita , describe
1500 plants, identifying 350 as valuable medicines. This major
reference text is still consulted by Ayurvedic practitioners.
The second major work was the Susreta Samhita, written a Century
later which forms the basis of modern surgery & is still
consulted today. Other systems of midicine such as the Chinese,
Tibtan & Unani Tibb traditions have their roots in Ayurveda
i.e. The Budh was a follower of Ayurveda, the spread of Buddhism
into Tibet during the following centuries was accompanied by
increased practice of Ayurveda. The ancient civilization were
linked to one another by trade routs, campaigns & wars.
Arab traders spread knowledge of Indian plants & Ayurvedic
medicine was studied by Arab physicians, who included, Indian
plants in their materia medica. This knowledge was passed on
to the ancient Greeks & Romans, who parctice were eventually
to form the basis of European medicine.
