We Spring Clean our home, but how about Spring Cleaning our bodies? http://www.ayurvedicyogi.com/ayurvedic-spring-detox-or-how-to-lose-the-extra-winter-pounds/ AyurvedicYogi » Ayurvedic Spring detox (or how to lose the extra Winter pounds!) www.ayurvedicyogi.com According to Ayurveda, good health is dependent upon our capability to fully digest and elimate food as well as process information taken in by our 5 senses. Any Ayurvedic detox should involve boosting our digestion, known as ‘agni’ in Ayurveda, as well as restoring our senses.

Keep walking The Organs of your body have their sensory touches at the bottom of your foot, if you massage these points you will find relief from aches and pains as you can see the heart is on the left foot. Typically they are shown as points and arrows to show which organ it connects to. It is indeed correct since the nerves connected to these organs terminate here. God created our body so well that he thought of even this. He made us walk so that we will always be pressing these pressure points and thus keeping these organs activated at all times.

No No No NO ............. Kheer dekh ke lalach mat karna niche jo likha hai wo pura padh bhi lena
हमारी हर परंपरा में वैज्ञानिकता का दर्शन होता हैं अज्ञानता का नहीं. भारत के पहले काले अंग्रेज़ जवाहरुद्दीन के समय मे विज्ञान के संबंध में यह धारणा व्याप्त कर ली गई थी की पश्चिम का विज्ञान ही श्रेष्ठ है. जिन्हे भारत से हटाने के लिए हमें इतनी मेहनत करनी पड़ी और खून बहाना पड़ा या इसलिए ‘पश्चिम जो कहे वही सही’ यह हीन भाव सर्वसाधारण मे बैठा दिया गया था. हमने उनके चिकित्सा ज्ञान (ऐलोपैथी) को राष्ट्र चिकित्सा पद्धति बनाया, ऐलोपैथी को अपने स्वास्थ्य विज्ञान (आयुर्वेद) के आधार पर परखने की बजाय उल्टा काम किया. भारतीय परम्पराओं को पश्चिम के जड़ विज्ञान से नहीं समझा जा सकता था, इसलिए उन्हें दक़ियानूसी, कालबाह्य, गँवारू आदि विशेषणों से मंडित कर त्याग दिया. ‘छोड़ो कल की बाते कल की बात पुरानी’जैसे गाने लोकप्रिय होने लगे और लोगो ने इसे अपना आदर्श मूल्य मान लिया । जो परम्पराएँ वर्षों से चली आ रही है वे बिना वैज्ञानिक आधार के है, यह सोच बहुत ही संकीर्ण हैं इस सोच ने हमारी वह दृष्ठि छिन ली जो हमें हमारी परम्पराओं में छिपी वैज्ञानिकता का दर्शन कराती थी । आइये उनमे से कुछ वैज्ञानिक आधार की परम्पराओं का वर्णन कराते है ------ हम सब जानते है की मच्छर काटने से मलेरिया होता है वर्ष मे कम से कम 700-800 बार तो मच्छर काटते ही होंगे अर्थात 70 वर्ष की आयु तक पहुंचते-पहुंचते लाख बार मच्छर काट लेते होंगे । लेकिन अधिकांश लोगो को जीवन भर में एक दो बार ही मलेरिया होता है सारांश यह है की मच्छर के काटने से मलेरिया होता है यह 1% ही सही है । लेकिन यहाँ ऐसे विज्ञापनो की कमी नहीं है जो कहते है की एक भी मच्छर ‘डेंजरस’ है, हिट लाओगे तो एक भी मच्छर नहीं बचेगा अब ऐसे विज्ञापनो के झांसे मे आकर के करोड़ो लोग इस मच्छर बाजार मे अप्रत्यक्ष रूप से शामिल हो जाते है । सभी जानते है बैक्टीरिया बिना उपयुक्त वातावरन के नहीं पनप सकते जैसे दूध मे दही डालने मात्र से दही नहीं बनाता, दूध हल्का गरम होना चाहिए, उसे ढककर गरम वातावरण मे रखना होता है । बार बार हिलाने से भी दही नहीं जमता ऐसे ही मलेरिया के बैक्टीरिया को जब पिट का वातावरन मिलता है तभी वह 4 दिन में पूरे शरीर में फैलता है नहीं तो थोड़े समय में खत्म हो जाता है. सारे मच्छर मार प्रयासो के बाद भी मच्छर और रोगवाहक सूक्ष्म कीट नहीं काटेंगे यह हमारे हाथ में नहीं लेकिन पित्त को नियंत्रित रखना हमारे हाथ में तो है. अब हमारी परम्पराओं का चमत्कार देखिये जिन्हे अल्पज्ञानी, दक़ियानूसी, और पिछड़ेपन की सोच करके षड्यंत्र फैलाया जाता था । वर्षा ऋतु के बाद शरद ऋतु आती है आकाश में बादल धूल न होने से कडक धूप पड़ती है जिससे शरीर में पित्त कुपित होता है इसी समय गड्ढो मे जमा पानी के कारण बहुत बड़ी मात्र मे मच्छर पैदा होते है इससे मलेरिया होने का खतरा सबसे अधिक होता है । खीर खाने से पित्त का शमन होता है. शरद में ही पितृ पक्ष (श्राद्ध) आता है. पितरों का मुख्य भोजन है खीर. इस दौरान 5-7 बार खीर खाना हो जाता है इसके बाद शरद पुर्णिमा को रातभर चाँदनी के नीचे चाँदी के पात्र में राखी खीर सुबह खाई जाती है.... (चाँदी का पात्र न हो तो चाँदी का चम्मच खीर मे डाल दे, लेकिन बर्तन मिट्टी या पीतल का हो, क्योंकि स्टील जहर और एल्यूमिनियम, प्लास्टिक, चीनी मिट्टी, महा-जहर है). यह खीर विशेष ठंडक पहुंचाती है. खीर गाय के दूध की हो तो अति उत्तम, विशेष गुणकारी (आयुर्वेद मे घी से अर्थात गौ घी और दूध गौ का) इससे मलेरिया होने की संभावना नहीं के बराबर हो जाती है ध्यान रहे : इस ऋतु में बनाई खीर में केसर और मेंवों का प्रयोग न करे । मलेरिया होने के बाद कड़वी दवाइयाँ खाकर, हजारों रूपए खर्चकर, जोखिम उठाकर ठीक होने में अधिक वैज्ञानिकता हैं या स्वादिष्ट व पौष्ठिक खीर खाकर मलेरिया होने ही न देने में अधिक वैज्ञानिकता ? आज भयंकर षड्यंत्र के तहत आयुर्वेद की शिक्षा नहीं दी जा रही है बड़ी धूर्तता के साथ स्कूलो में यह धारणा बैठा दी गई है की आयुर्वेद मात्र जड़ी बूटी चिकित्साशास्त्र है जबकि जड़ी बूटी तो मात्र आयुर्वेद का 10% ही है 90% आयुर्वेद तो हमारी समृद्ध परम्पराओं में है, जो वैज्ञानिक आधार सहित थी. अब **इस लेख से कुछ प्रश्न पैदा होते है *!* क्या सफाई कर्मी संस्थाए गड्ढो को इसलिए नहीं भरते ताकि कंपनियाँ लोगो को मलेरिया के डर के सहारे लूटे ? अभी तक किसी वैज्ञानिक ने मच्छर मरने का यंत्र क्यों नहीं बनाया ? क्या इतनी भी योग्यता हमारे वैज्ञानिको मे नहीं है जिनके पुरखे विमानन शास्त्र का ज्ञान दुनिया को दिया ? मच्छर मारक अगरबत्ती, क्रीम, टिकिया का बाजार लगभग 3.5 लाख करोड का क्यूँ है ?

Russian devotee wants Ayyappa temple on home Petukhova alias Induchoodan from St. Petersburg wants to construct a temple devoted to Lord Ayyappa on his home ground. Petukhova, who became a Hindu and changed his name to Induchoodan (meaning Lord Siva), has been learning Hindu ideology, the Vedas, tantra vidya, kalari payattu and ayurveda for the last 20 years. He also practices ayurveda in St. Petersburg. Climbing the holy steps for the seventh time, Induchoodan told Deccan Chronicle, “Life is transformed to another level after each climb. Here they are all are swamis, no differences in dress or mind. This has to be followed everywhere.” “My son Eliya also accompanied me to Sabarimala this time. I took him along with me only after he attained perfection in vrutha and other ritual practices to be followed. The team tied their Irumudi in Pachalam, near Ernakulam." "The team usually trekked via the forest route but we came through Pamba this time because we were only four of us and the forest route is filled with pilgrims," Petukhova added. Evegny alias Vivek a freelance system analyst who is a frequent visitor to the Vedic Academy at Idukki has come to have Ayyappa darshan for the second time. “We have observed 41 days of strict vrutha. We walk barefoot wherever we go,” said Vivek. Yanina who changed her name to Devayani, is a retired engineer from Moscow. This 70-year-old managed to climb the hill though her legs were covered with bandages. She said that the visit gave her an experience with a difference.

जब भारत की सरकार स्वामी रामदेव जी के फंडे पर काम करके 30 करोड नौकरियों का जुगाड मात्र 10 साल में कर सकती है तो वह आरक्षण के पीछे क्यों पड़ी हुई है। पढ़िए कैसे......और अगर पसंद आये तो शेयर करें.....!! . . . . 1. आज के दिन भारत की लाखों छोटी मोटी खिलौना बनाने वाली कम्पनियाँ इसलिय बंद हो गयी कि सरकार की तरफ से उनको न तो कोई आर्थिक मदद मिली न तकनीकी, यदि 100 का औसत पकडें तो करीब 2 करोड़ लोग बेरोजगार हो गए। 2. भारत में साबुन से लेकर बनियान तक बनाने वाली 5000 विदेशी कंपनियों ने भारत का सब रोजगार (करीब 12 करोड़) विदेशो में भेज दिया है साथ ही साथ हर साल करीब 15 से 16 लाख करोड़ रुपये विदेश जा रहा है। 3. इस पर तुर्रा यह की रोज रोज एफ़डीआई को नए नए क्षेत्र में खोला जा रहा है। यदि खुदरा में भी एफ़डीआई खोल दिया जाये तो भारत का 12 करोड़ रोजगार और भारत से बाहर विदेशो में पैदा होगा जिससे भारत के लोग और बेरोजगार होंगे। 4. स्वामी रामदेवजी ने कितने लोगो को स्थाई रोजगार अपने योग और आयुर्वेद के बल पर दिया है इस पर किसी ने ध्यान नहीं दिया है। इनके हर आरोग्य केंद्र पर 5 से 6 लोगों को नौकरी मिल रही है। एक एक जिले में 2 से 4 ऐसे केंद्र हैं और भारत में 628 जिले हैं। इसके बाद इनका उत्पाद बेचने वाले हर दूकान पर 2 से 4 लोगो को नौकरी मिली हुई है और यह आरोग्य केंद्र अब हर गाँव में खोलने की योजना है। तो सोचिये मात्र देशी चीजों से कितना रोजगार पैदा होगा। पतंजलि योगपीठ में भी शायद 8000 लोग नौकरी करते है। यदि गाय- खेती-योग-आयुर्वेद की चौकड़ी पर ध्यान दिया जाये तो इससे कम से कम 5 करोड रोजगार मात्र 3 साल में पैदा हो जायेगा तथा विदेशियों पर निर्भरता कम हो जायेगी। 5. जिस तरह से अमेरिका भारत को तेल को लेकर परेशानी में डाल रहा है, स्वामी रामदेव जी की चले तो गौ हत्या बंद करवाकर उसी गोबर गैस को सिलिंडर में भर कर गाड़ियों में सीएनजी जैसा उपयोग किया जाये और हर घर पर 200 वाट का सोलर पैनल दिखे। 6. वकीलों की जमात कांग्रेस सरकार अंग्रेजो की तरह ही 500 रुपये और 5 लाख करोड़ रुपये के भ्रष्टाचार को बराबर मानकर पहले 500 रुपये वाले को जेल भेजती है बाद में जनता को आरक्षण और कुशवाहा जैसे मामलों में उलझाकर महत्वपूर्ण समय बिताकर इलेक्ट्रोनिक वोटिंग मशीन से जीत हासिल कर लेती है। कलमाड़ी, कनिमोझी जैसे सेकड़ों हजारों करोड़ के भ्रष्टाचारी देशद्रोही जमानत पा लेते हैं और 500 रूपये वाला जेल में सड़ रहा होता है। ये अब किसी भी हालत में खत्म होना चाहिए और राष्ट्रभक्तों की जमात पहले देश चलाये फिर दुनिया...अब भारत को ऐसे नेतृत्व की आवश्यकता है जो भारत के अंतिम व्यक्ति की सोचे, समान और मुफ्त शिक्षा व्यवस्था, चिकित्सा व्यवस्था उपलब्ध कराये, भ्रष्टाचार पर लगाम लगाये और न्याय व्यवस्था भी सुधारे। वर्तमान में न्याय के नाम पर सिर्फ फैसले सुनाये जा रहे हैं और विदेशी न्याय व्यवस्था के कारण देश में अपराध बढ़ रहे हैं...!! जागो भारतियों जागो...!! जय भारत स्वाभिमान ! जय स्वामी रामदेव जी !! जय हिंद !! जय भारत !! वन्देमातरम !! ॥ पसंद आए तो शेयर करें ॥ # @[222235904473060:274:ये है हिंदुस्तान मेरी जान]

Nutrition—A Cancer Battle Plan Updated and revised 11/18/10 This is the most difficult article we’ve had to write for this edition. Why? You ask. The experts hardly agree on anything. Here are a just a few of their disagreements: Reports from the Orient show the cancer fighting properties of fermented soy products, but Dr Balch in Prescriptions for Nutritional Healing advises against soy products because they interfere with enzymatic action (wrong: do not eat raw soy; the interfering enzymes are destroyed in the fermentation process), while breast cancer experts sit on both sides of the soy garden, some saying they are safe while the others say avoid soy products completely (we recommend ONLY fermented soy products). Some diets recommend salt, some, like the Gerson Therapy, recommend a salt free high potassium diet. If you are juice fasting, Dr Richard Schulze calls for lots of water: "Fasting is flushing." However, Gerson advises against any water because he feels that the stomach must be as empty as possible to digest the juices and soups. Chicken (skinless) can be found on some cancer diets, except at the Livingston Foundation Medical Center, for her book, The Conquest of Cancer, dedicates an entire chapter to the carcinogenic aspects of chicken: "Chicken: Cancer in Every Pot." She admits that free range or organic chickens are better, but still should be avoided. Though most diets call for a strictly vegetarian approach, Gerson cooks the bulk of his vegetables, while most others call for live foods, and then there is Dr Nicholas J Gonzalez out of New York whose diets are prepared on an individual basis with some calling for fatty red meats depending on the patients metabolism and biochemistry. We could go on for hours, but we’ll end these arguments and try to glean for you the best advice from all the experts. However, because of the differing opinions concerning cancer and nutrition, this advice is information only. We cannot create a menu specifically for you, but your doctor and nutritionist can. Please note that if someone designs a diet specifically for you without a thorough assessment of your own particular blood chemistry, you are engaging in quackery. Only general guidelines can be advised without a thorough assessment. A thorough assessment of one’s body chemistry is the only way to design a specific meal plan. The best nutritional advice so far has come to us from the Center for Advancement in Cancer Education in Pennsylvania. They have put together a cancer battle plan from the best of all nutritional advice and we will give it to you here. The Center for Advancement in Cancer Education can send you a slough of information, papers, books, audio and video tapes, to aid you in your struggle. They need your support through donations and fees charged for their information, and can be contacted at (610) 642-4810. First we will give you general guidelines, followed by in depth information of a diet to fight cancer. To begin, we must warn you that a dramatic change in your diet can dump dangerously large amounts of cellular waste into your blood stream, therefore you must detoxify your system before and during the initial stages of your diet. However, most people’s idea of detoxification is to buy a detox tea. This is wrong and dangerous. There is a proper way to detox, and you must read the article "Cleaning House" before you attempt it. "Cleaning House" is the most important article you will read at this web site. Dr Richard Schulze told us that in his clinical experience, 80% of all maladies, whether chronic acne, psoriasis, arthritis, or cancer, cleared up within two weeks of detoxifying the colon only. Read that article. Top The Principles of a Cancer Diet The Center for Advancement in Cancer Education puts it simply: low fat (a low fat diet lowers "bad" estrogen levels in women), low animal protein, high fiber, high enzyme diet whose acid/alkaline balance approaches a ratio of 1:4, eliminating heavily refined, highly heated, over-processed, artificial, and chemically adulterated foods. In other words, organic, unprocessed or minimally processed foods. However, there is a problem here in that the Mediterranean diet is high in fat and breast cancer rates are lower there. So it is not just fat, but the types of fats we are interested in here. Olive oil is contains essential acids as does flax oil. Diets low in fat can kill a cancer patient. PMGs that promote cells to stop this crazy out-of-control growth needs to work with fats. For more information on PMGs click here. Also keep in mind the condition of the animal who's fat you are about to consume. Butter from an organically raised cow is so much better for you than butter from conventionally raised cows. What Else to Eliminate Coffee, tea (with too much caffeine), sugar, white flour, white rice, milk, oils (except olive oil), liquor, fried food, meat from animals that have been raised with hormones or antibiotics, citrus (one or two oranges is maximum), vitamins that are not indicated for you specifically, refined salt (Celtic Sea Salt® Brand has been given the ok by many naturopaths and nutritionists), cocoa, over-processed foods, foods with additives and drugs (these include all over-the-counter remedies, i.e., pain relievers, antacids, cough and cold medicines). Keep in mind that these are just general guidelines. Some people actually need coffee to counteract the alcohol created by their pancreas. Some people need animal proteins. Some need citrus. Only a thorough chemical analysis can tell you specifically what to eat and what to avoid. However, everyone with cancer should avoid all sugars and any foods containing partially hydrogenated oils (which means you must learn to read labels as the food industry is slowly slipping these fats into nearly everything: frozen foods, cream soups, cocoas, cheese products, you name it). Top A special note on sugar: CANCER LOVES SUGAR. Your oncologist knows this, yet most feed their patients cookies and Ensure®. Click here to learn what your doctor knows, but refuses/forgets to tell you: SUGAR. Foods to Use Raw vegetables and vegetable juices, fruit (fresh and dried but rehydrated—avoid sulphurated), whole grains, lightly cooked vegetables, sweet potatoes, white potatoes, beans, yogurt and kefir, small amounts of organically raised meat, small amounts of poached fish, nuts and/or nut milks, herb teas, vegetable soup, and cruciferous vegetables. Cancer experts recommend a 70% raw food diet (uncooked), however, others seem to feel that 50% is recommended. Check with your own nutritionist. Another reason for eating organic foods is of special interest to women wanting to prevent or fight breast cancer. Pesticides mimic the action of estrogen in your body in that they can lock onto receptors in the your breasts and stimulate cell division. Even small amounts of pesticides can be dangerous to women, because they tend to concentrate to high levels in fat cells, and breasts are comprised mostly of fat cells. Top Enzymes Any biochemist will tell you, that when the body is creating digestive enzymes, it is too busy to create other enzymes that support your immune system. Adding enzymes to your diet keeps your organs from becoming overstressed and helps them to protect your immune system. Before meals:3 pancreatic enzymes (General Research Laboratories). With meals:3 or 4 Green Life (Sonebrand). After meals: Pancreatrophin, Hepatrophin, and Thymus (Std Process Labs). All of the above recommendations and name brand products came to us from the Center for Advancement in Cancer Education. Again, you will want to check with your nutritionist. Top Food Purchasing and Preparation Use only fresh, organic, crisp vegetables; avoid anything wilted. Most nutritionists recommend buying only organic foods that are in season and grown locally. This is a pretty difficult order for some of us Northerners since the only thing that grows in winter here are icicles, and a diet of bean sprouts we’ve sprouted near a window can get rather tedious. Prepare your veggies and eat them immediately. Do not put leftovers in the refrigerator. Once a vegetable has been sliced, its vitamins and enzymes begin to degenerate. So prepare what you need and toss out your leftovers. Second best to fresh, is frozen. Freeze your own organic veggies. Do not microwave or use a pressure cooker. Use steel, glass, or ceramic (not imported) cooking pots. Veggies can be lightly steamed, gently sautéed, or baked. Gerson recommends cooking veggies very slowly in their own juices with no added water. Top How to Eat Eat only when hungry and never overeat. Turn off the television and radio. Sit down to eat. Eat slowly and deliberately chewing each mouthful thoroughly. Don’t talk and don’t be bothered by any distractions. Thank your higher power for every bite, and give thanks before and after each meal. You’d be surprised who’s listening and the powers they/he/she/it can infuse into your food. We are spiritual beings experiencing a physical reality. Bring the spirit to your table. Top Food Combining There is a lot of controversy surrounding food combining, however, we will give you here the information supplied to us by those on the side of food combining. Combining foods improperly causes complete digestion to take longer, tires you out, and can allow foods to ferment leading to purtrification of the colon, which leads to toxins entering the blood stream. Because fruit should not rest long in your stomach, fruit should always be eaten alone or before meals. Here are a few more simple rules about fruits: Eat sub-acid fruits with either acid fruits or sweet fruits, but never eat acid fruits with sweet fruits. Sub-acid fruits: Apricots, berries, cherimoya, cherries, fresh figs, grapes, mangos, nectarines, papaya, peaches, pears, plums. Sweet fruits: Bananas, dates, dried fruit, persimmons, prunes, raisins, sapote. (Some apples are sweet and some can be sub-acid) Acid Fruits: All citrus, kumquats, pineapple, pomegranates, strawberries. Always eat melons alone. Rules for veggies, proteins, carbohydrates, and fats: Eat veggies with carbohydrates or with proteins, but never mix proteins with carbohydrates (no meat and potatoes). Meats should never be cooked in fats. Remember, your carbohydrates are: breads, corn, dried beans & peas, grains and cereals, pasta, potatoes, pumpkin, squash, and yams. Top Detox Your Life Although this might not seem related to diet, what we take in our bodies comes from the air we breath, the lotions we put in our hair and on our skin, and the foods and liquids we consume. We are immersed in a sea of antigens, chemicals and toxins that put a relentless strain on our immune systems. If the food you eat is going to help your body to heal, give it a head start by cleaning up your immediate environment. Air filtration systems: for your home and office, and keep the filters clean. Water filtration systems: the best seem to be the reverse osmosis type. Avoid all chlorinated or fluoridated water. Some recommend adding two drops of bleach to the intake of your water filter every month or so, though, half an ounce of hydrogen peroxide (30%) might be better. Avoid long hot showers. In 1990 the EPA placed hot showers on their list of cancer sources. Not only do the carcinogens in your water supply get into your skin during a hot shower, you breath in the carcinogenic steam. Thus, a filtration system added to your shower is also recommended. Throw out all your skin lotions, soaps, and hair sprays. Find a health care professional to advise on what you can use that is not toxic. Throw out all your cleaning supplies. Shop for non-toxic cleaning supplies. Food grade Hydrogen Peroxide (30%): have some on hand in your refrigerator. It is strong and should be treated as a dangerous substance (a splash in your eyes can cause blindness). Mix up a three percent solution, the instructions are on the bottle. Put some in a spray bottle. Use it to clean up any meat drippings. Wash your veggies in it, or spray and rinse. Enforce a "No Shoes In This House" policy. Shoes drag in toxins from outdoors. The Japanese know this. If you have an attached garage, when you come home, keep the garage door open, exit through the garage door and enter the house through the front door. You would not believe the levels of carbon dioxide found in homes with attached garages. Call Greenpeace and ask for their pamphlet Stepping Lightly on the Earth—Everyone’s Guide to Toxics in the Home. And send them a donation. Or get a copy of The Cure for All Cancers, by Hulda Clark, PhD, ND. It is filled with suggestions for detoxifying your life. Read the article "Cleaning House" on the proper way to detoxicate your body. It is probably the most important article at this web site. Top General Guidelines Most of the following guidelines have been created by the Center for Advancement in Cancer Education, though we’ve thrown in a few others we’ve found in our research. Vegetables A minimum of fifty percent of your diet should be veggies. The ratio of raw to cooked should range from 50:50 to 70:30 (70% raw, 30% lightly cooked). Raw vegetables give you the enzymes you need, but an entirely raw diet is inadvisable since there are some tough fibrous walls that need to be broken down to get to the nutrition, and this can put a strain on your digestive system. Another way to break down raw foods and make them more assimilable is to grate them, or run them through a food processor. However, you will have to eat them as soon as they are processed, because they begin to degenerate very quickly. Fresh vegetable juices are a must. The best cancer fighting juice is carrot juice. It is high in beta-carotene and high in alpha-carotene, an often ignored nutrient, though thought by many experts to be ten times more powerful than beta-carotene. Some nutritionists recommend sprouts either juiced or whole, however, the Gerson Institute strongly recommends against them because, in their experience, sprouts interfere with the action of your enzymes. Include large amounts of green, leafy veggies and choices from the cabbage family (cruciferous) daily, and don’t forget the sea vegetables such as wakame, nori, kelp, kombu, hizike, and dulce. The sea veggies are great in salads (after being rehydrated and drained) or in soups. Top Vinegar We should make a special note about vinegar here, for many of you will make salad dressings for your veggies. Most vinegars you purchase are destructive to your liver and digestive tract. According to Dr Norman Walker who wrote Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices (a must for anyone thinking of juice fasting or just making their own fresh juices), most vinegars contain only acetic acid, not a plus for a cancer diet. Apple cider vinegar contains, in addition to acetic acid, malic acid, an element of the digestive process. If you are going to use vinegar, use unpasteurized, unfiltered, organic apple cider vinegar. Top Fruits Ten percent of your diet should be fruit. Eat fruit alone as a small meal or between meals, or at least one half hour before a meal, never after. They should be raw or rehydrated and preferably in season. A breakfast of fruit only is light and highly recommended by movers and shakers. Additionally, since fruit, if properly mixed, does not sit in your stomach long, it can be eaten before bedtime without causing excessive stomach acid. Keep citrus fruit to a minimum. Yes, we know how the television ads state that orange juice fights cancer, but that is prevention only. Citrus puts your body into an acidic state. Nearly all of the cancer institutes we've talked to during our research said the same thing: if you are battling cancer, keep your citrus to a minimum. Get your vitamin C from supplements. Top Animal Products Limit your animal products to two or three small (2 oz.) servings per week. White fleshed fish (preferably cod, haddock, salmon, or trout), or white meat poultry are preferred. Poultry and meat should be raised free range without additional hormones, antibiotics, and pesticides. The Center for Advancement in Cancer Education recommends no red meat, however, Dr Gonzalez of New York says this depends on the person’s own biochemistry. Certainly no processed meats should be consumed. Poached or soft-boiled eggs from flax fed, free range chickens are best. Depending on who you talk to, some red meat can be permitted on a cancer diet, however, red meat is high in iron, which reacts with oxygen to create free radicals. Thus some small amounts (in stir fries and soups) are recommended, along with antioxidants such as vitamin C and vitamin E. Top Liquids Avoid drinking any liquids 15 minutes before a meal, and for three hours following a meal. If you must drink with your meals, our research tells us that what is best is hot green tea made with Willard Water® (can be purchased in many health food stores). A Chinese study of over 900 middle-aged individuals showed that drinking green tea cut the risk of esophageal cancer by as much as 60%. [Journal of the National Cancer Institute, June 1, 1994] The phytochemicals (chemicals from plants) in green tea most responsible for its anti-cancer effect are polypherols, and in addition to preventing cancer of the esophagus, are also thought to prevent cancer of the stomach, liver, skin, and lung. (Japanese men smoke more than American’s but have a lower incidence of lung cancer.) Researchers in China believe that green tea also helps to lower blood pressure and blood cholesterol, stabilize blood sugar, kill decay-causing bacteria, and block the action of many carcinogens. (Green tea extracts are now found in many health food stores.) Black tea too seems to have the same effect, however, analysis shows that there are 4 times the active compounds in green tea than black tea. Researchers at Rutgers State University showed that over a 31 week period with mice exposed to two carcinogens known trigger skin cancer, the experimental group, drinking tea, experienced 70% to 90% fewer skin cancers. Black tea worked as well as green tea, and decaffeinated teas, though showing a slightly smaller anti-cancer effect, were still significantly high. [Environmental Nutrition, November 1994] An estimated 80% of Americans walk around in a state of virtual dehydration. If you want proof, next time you are in a high-school or grade school, take a tour of one of the boys’ lavatories. Young boys have a tendency not to flush. You will find in the urinals a thick brown substance normally called urine. Because our kids drink so many caffeinated soft-drinks, they are dehydrated. The color of your urine should range from clear to a light yellow. A dark yellow shows signs of dehydration, even though your throat and mouth feel just fine. For every caffeinated drink, you need to drink one more cup of water. Deepak Chopra recommends water at room temperature, eight to ten glasses per day. Others recommend ten to twelve glasses. Then again, Gerson forbids water. Check with your nutritionist. (For more on teas repudiated to fight cancer, see the article "Alternative Cancer Therapies.") Avoid caffeinated and artificial drinks (they contain fluoridated and chlorinated water), and fruit juices that have been processed or that have extra sugars added. Whole fruit juices are good in moderation (with added filtered water). Roasted cereal grain beverages (e.g., brown rice, barley) or herbal teas are recommended. Raw vegetable juices are excellent, especially carrot juice. Again, avoid fluoridated and chlorinated water, but keep your fluid intake up. Ice cold beverages are out. Chinese medicine reminds us that the temperature of digestion is 100º Fahrenheit. Drink your water (and other beverages) at room temperature. Hot herbal teas are also excellent, and for a primo coffee substitute, from Maharishi Ayurveda products, you may drink "Raja’s Cup" which is not only a great drink and coffee substitute, but is charged with antioxidants. Be sure to empty your bladder as soon as you feel the need to do so. Dr Frank Charles (from Natural Wellness Group in Minneapolis) reminds us that the longer urine is confined to the bladder, the more concentrated it gets. Studies show that persons who hold in their urine get bladder cancer at greater rates than those who go when the urge hits. Top Grains Twenty percent of your diet should be whole grains. Avoid all refined, polished grains and flours and products made from them. Brown rice, kashi, millet, rye, buckwheat, barley, oats and oat brans, corn (on the cob or corn grits), and quinoa are recommended. Whole grain pasta can be used with limitations. For grain recipes, pick up of copy of Candia Cole’s Gourmet Grains. One important note on grains: unprocessed, whole grains, as well as seeds and nuts, contain volatile oils that can go bad quickly. It is best to keep them refrigerated or in your freezer once you’ve opened them. Top Fats and Oils Most fats/oils should be kept to a minimum especially if they are human made or over processed (corn oil is deadly, margarine even more so), though you will want to get your allotment of Omega-3s. Dr Johanna Budwig has demonstrated that for proper utilization of oxygen by our cells, adequate amounts of unsaturated fatty acids must be present in our diets. (See the section on her in "Alternative Cancer Therapies.") Monounsaturates (olive and sesame seed) are highly recommended, but they must be unrefined (cold or expeller pressed) and they must be kept capped and refrigerated. Avoid heating oils; heat causes oxidation and the release of free radicals. Mayonnaise and margarine are out. Avoid trans fatty (partially hydrogenated) oils as if they were the cause of your cancer (for we are slowly discovering, they just might be the cause). In 1989, the USDA found that fish oils reduce the production of the prostaglandin E2 which has a tendency to cause appetite loss. It is this appetite loss that brings on cachexia, the wasting syndrome that causes eventual death in cancer patients. Top Seeds and Nuts Five percent of your diet should be seeds and nuts. They must be consumed raw, though some say the best way to eat them is sprouted (alfalfa, radish, sunflower) though keep in mind what we've said earlier about sprouts. Because seeds and nuts can put a strain on your digestive system, when your immune system is down, you will probably want to pulverize them in a grinder and sprinkle them over soups and salads. If you do not want to strain your digestive system, avoid nuts until your immune system is responding better. Seeds and nuts can be made into milk substitutes. Get a copy of Candia Cole’s Not Milk—Nut Milks. Nuts should (unless blended into drinks) be used in small amounts, with almonds, hazel nuts, and pecans being the best. No peanuts! Peanuts are not nuts, but legumes; they are considered indigestible by some, and can contain carcinogens from a very common mold often found on them. Top Legumes Ten percent of your diet should be legumes and should be cooked well. Aduki, mung, kidney, navy, black, turtle, red, garbanzo, and pinto beans, as well as peas, black-eyed peas, and lentils are excellent. Fermented soy products (miso is one) are a must on a cancer diet (unless your breast cancer is estrogen receptive). Remember to combine your legumes with grains for more complete proteins. Top Soups Soups are an excellent means of breaking down the fibers in veggies and getting more of their nutrients and should include a variety of veggies, seaweeds, and legumes. Miso, tamari, or bean broth can serve as a base (check with your doctor/nutritionist if your breast cancer is estrogen receptive). Get a book on making home-made vegetable soups. Top Condiments Salt should be kept to a minimum; seaweeds are sold as salt substitutes. If you must use a salt, make sure it is naturally processed sea salt, tamari, or something high in potassium. Garlic is a must; Dr Schulze recommends 5-7 cloves a day, though this could upset your stomach if taken all at once. Use your judgement. Try some of the herbal seasonings at your local health food store; it won’t take long to develop a liking to them. And keep in mind that herbs from the mint family, like oregano, are great on salads and contain a goodly amount of antioxidants, as well as many other nutrients. Top Where Do We Go From Here? Now that we’ve mentioned the highlights and some of the rules, we can go into more depth and discuss the whys and wherefores of the cancer diet, and point out those foods that prevent and fight cancers. Juice Fasting If your immune system is compromised and your body is running down hill fast, there is no better quick nutritional lift than a juice fast. But you must make your juices fresh every day and drink them right away. If something is left overnight in the refrigerator, throw it out. Max Gerson recommends a juicer that comes in two parts, a grinder and a press and advises against a singular processing unit, though he doesn’t give his reasons. Others recommend some of the many juicers available on the market. You will want to juice those foods that fight cancer, and if they are unpalatable, add some fruit juice to sweeten them( e.g., broccoli and pineapple). Juicing will break down the fibers and supply you with the nutrients and enzymes your body needs. Some naturopaths feel juicing is analogous to getting an IV, for your blood stream feels the benefits of drinking fresh vegetable juices within fifteen minutes. Enzymes are destroyed by cooking, and enzymatic therapy is a must on a cancer diet. (See below for more on enzymes.) Top Macrobiotics The rules for a macrobiotic diet go far beyond the scope of this article, so get a book (see below under References and Further Reading). Many have found that a macrobiotic diet battles any immune system dysfunction, and there are numerous case histories of complete reversals of degenerative diseases on this diet. One of the best books on this subject is: The Cancer Prevention Diet by Michio Kushi who is considered one of the top nutritional specialists in Macrobiotics. Superfoods Any of the superfoods used on a daily basis is also highly recommended, and they can combined with your beverages and juices. They are filled with minerals, nutrients, vitamins, and chlorophyll and can help your body detoxify. Superfoods are: alfalfa, barley, and wheat grasses, spirulina, chlorella, blue green algae, and certain sea weeds. Sugars All sugars are out (although some centers allow the more complex sugars in moderation while others forbid them entirely). Cancer loves sugar and your liver hates it. Sugars put a terrible strain on your liver. The only recommended sweetener is Stevia. Stevia, interestingly enough, was outlawed for internal use by the FDA right about the same time they okayed Aspartame (NutriSweet®, Equal® ). However, grass roots campaigns have forced the FDA to allow Stevia to be sold in the US again. Stevia has been used for decades with no side effects, and can be purchased at most health food stores. If you must use a sugar, use it sparingly, and make sure it is an unrefined form, such as Sucanat or Florida Crystals (both are registered trademarks). Avoid all other sugar substitutes: your liver hates them. Top Enzymes There is hardly a center we’ve contacted that doesn’t use enzymatic therapy. Enzymes are needed for every chemical process in our bodies and are highly specialized. Dr Balch points out in Prescriptions for Nutritional Healing that overloading the system by making it produce digestive enzymes detracts from our ability to make other enzymes for metabolic and/or immune system processes. An article from Bestways, May 1979, entitled "Dr Edward Howell: A Man With an Urgent Message," by Ron Rendleman points out that we are a nation with an enzyme starved diet. Dr Howell is quoted: "Cancer specialists are discovering certain enzymes are completely lacking in the blood and urine of [their patients]." He goes on to say that because of our overcooked diets, our digestion must "steal" enzymes from other organs setting up a competition for enzymes among various organ systems, "The resulting metabolic dislocations may be the direct cause of cancer, coronary heart disease, diabetes and many other chronic incurable diseases." Lack of digestive enzymes, according to Dr Howell, is responsible for enlarged pituitary glands (the one that regulates all the others) and enlarged pancreases. Dr Howell also points to toxemia as the final result of our lack of digestive enzymes combined with our high meat diets, for our foods take longer to pass through our system, ferment, cause gas, heartburn, headaches and colon problems. Colon therapists estimate that the average middle-aged American might carry around five to fifty pounds of hard, toxic, fecal matter lodged in their colons. Adding digestive enzymes to your system keeps it from getting overloaded. Cancers of the liver and pancreas demand the supplementation of digestive enzymes because these are the organs that are supposed to produce them in the first place. To protect your pancreas, pancreatic enzymes are a must. Dr William Kelly in One Answer to Cancer recommends taking them with your meals and in between meals, and especially in the afternoon between 2 and 3 when your system is most alkaline, and at 3:30 in the morning when your system again is most alkaline. A few references we found disagree on this point (exactly when your system is most alkaline) and some recommend taking them upon waking. Again, you will have to check with your nutritionist for recommendations based on your particular body chemistry. Each vegetable contains the enzymes needed for its own digestion. Eating raw foods unburdens your system by supplying you with digestive enzymes. Bananas, mangos, and avocados are rich in enzymes, but for the richest source, you’ll have to eat your sprouts. Some Enzymes and their action: Chymotrypsin reduces inflammation. Trypsin digests necrotic tissue. Papainde shields tumor tissue. Hydrochloric acid is also recommended at times, especially if you are a vegetarian, and many of the digestive enzymes you can purchase come with a little HCL. It is time for us to quit thinking HCL is our enemy. It is needed for digestion and as we age, we produce less and less. A simple test to see if you are producing enough HCL comes from Dr David G Williams of Alternatives (a newsletter) in a pamphlet he produced called SECRETS OF LIFE EXTENSION: 10 Simple All-Natural Steps to Achieving Your Maximum Lifespan, when you arise in the morning, before you brush your teeth, test the pH of your saliva (testing kits are available at most drug stores), and after you eat breakfast, test it again. If the pH of your saliva has dropped, you will need extra HCL. Please, see a physician to determine your own specific needs. Note that niacin aids in the production of HCL. Top Supplements It is better to get your vitamins from the food you eat than from a bottle. We’ve been told this for years. However, this is true only if you eat organic whole foods. While in Mastel’s Health Food Store, John Mastel handed me an article (I had been asking him a lot of questions) from Organic Gardening (July/August 1995) written by Dr Jim Duke out of the Chicago area. In the article called "Synergy in the Garden," he gave numerous examples of how the whole plant proves to be better than the sum of its parts. Scientists love to extract the phytochemicals from plants looking for the active ingredient, however, over and over again, they are disappointed at the results. The mayapple, Duke pointed out, has been used by the Penobscot Indians of Maine to cure cancer, and to commit suicide. Apparently, it is very powerful. Scientists extracted the active compounds and used them to fight potato bugs. However, over a period of time, the anti-pest activity stopped and the bugs were back at the potato plants. Duke assures us that if we use the entire mayapple, grind it up and spread it around our potato plants, the anti-pest activity will not stop, because in its natural state, all of the ingredients (the phytochemicals) act in synergy (synergy: one plus one is greater than two). In our food, Duke claims that you might get more beta carotene from a pill than from a carrot, but you will probably get more benefit from the carrot because all of the ingredients act in synergy. Having said this, yes, you will probably want to use supplements because the amount of food you would have to eat to get all your supplements will probably not fit in your stomach. Though we must caution you against taking any supplements that have not been specifically prescribed for you by your health care professional. The following is the Falk Supplementation Schedule (from the Falk Oncology Center in Toranto, Canada): Vitamin C fine crystals, minimum 4 grams (4,000 mg) three times per day. Aim for a dose just below diarrhea level, up to 40 grams per day. 1 level teaspoon = 4 grams (for most Vitamin C, however check the label). When using megadoses of Vitamin C, always use Esterfied C. Niacinamide 500 mg three times per day. (If cholesterol is high, use niacin.) Vitamin B Complex (50's) once a day (sublingual B12 is the best form of B12, especially if you are over 35). Vitamin E 400 IU once a day Beta Carotene 25,000 IU once a day Cod Liver Oil 2 capsules once a day Zinc Citrate 50 mg twice a day Selenium 200 mcg three times per day Folic Acid 5 mg twice a day Potassium increase to 1 gram once a day Magnesium Oxide 420 mg once a day We should point out here that the one additional supplement you will want to take is Lactobacillus acidolphilus. It is very important to a finely tuned digestive track and (according to Susan Silberstein from the Center for Advancement in Cancer Education) studies show it fights colon cancer by decreasing certain fecal enzymes that can turn pre-carcinogens into carcinogens. [Golding and Gorbach. "The Effect of Milk and Lactobacillus Feeding on Human Bacterial Enzyme Activity." American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1984; 39] Lactobacillus acidophilus has also been shown to stimulate natural killer (NK) cell activity, and it was discovered in Australia that injecting Lactobacillus acidolphilus directly into tumors causes immediate shrinkage. Garlic enhances the actions of Lactobacillus acidolphilus. Lactobacillus acidolphilus is found in live culture yogurt. The international Journal of Immunotherapy [1991; 7:4] reports that a diet of 2 cups of live culture yogurt daily increased the production of interferon by both the lymphocytes and thymus gland with no adverse side effects. However, if you are a woman, check to see if you have glucose intolerance; if so, one serving per month of yogurt increases your chances of ovarian cancer. Studies also show that kefir grain, used to start the cultured milk product kefir, also has anti-tumor activity. [Japanese Journal of Medical Science and Biology, 1982; 35] and kefir has been shown to stimulate the immune system. [Immunopharmacology, 1986; 12] Lactobacillus acidolphilus is found in health food stores in the refrigerator section. Keep it refrigerated and use it up as soon as possible, for it is alive and if you keep it past its time, it won’t do you a bit of good. Top Acid or Alkaline Gerson talks of the acid/alkaline imbalance that he feels leads to cancer. At the last minute, we received information of a new product from the Orient to re-balance your body’s pH called Coral Calcium. It seems that an entire industry mining the Coral sands from the Okinawa Islands (without disturbing the coral reefs) began after it was discovered that few of the inhabitants of these islands die before the age of 95, and according to the Guinness Book of Records, one inhabitant, Shigechiyo Izumi, is the oldest living person at 115, who worked up until the age of 105. The water we drink can become acidified by bacteria, algae, chloroform (from chlorination), nitrates, and heavy metals. Maintaining alkalinity is essential for health and vitality. Acidity is catabolic (tears down) and alkalinity is anabolic (builds up). Adding one tea bag of Coral Calcium to anything you drink will change the pH of whatever you are drinking and help to reestablish the body’s natural alkalinity. Already reports are coming in claiming increases in energy, less arthritic pain, ulcers healed, osteoporosis reversed, and positive effects on people suffering from diabetes, allergies, angina, and fibromyalgia. The most interesting of all the materials we've perused was a short piece describing some of the ancient medicinals found in a rare collection of pharmacy bottles dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. One of the jars has the inscription: "The Coral Stone to purify the Blood." Just one more suggestion concerning the acid/alkaline imbalance: pick up a copy of Alkalize or Die, by Theodore Baroody, Jr., DC, Phd, ND, MA. Within its pages are hundreds of foods and those that are alkaline (greens, certain fruits, etc.) and those that are acid (sugar, processed flours, etc.). You may also contact the Center for Advancement in Cancer Education to get a chart of acid and alkaline foods, but make sure you send them a donation. Top Foods to Avoid Avoid salt-cured, pickled, or smoked foods. Avoid all processed foods and trans-fatty oils as if they were the cause of your cancer itself. Avoid inorganically raised foods. Alcohol is completely out—your liver must be in tip top shape for the metabolism of vitamin A. Nuts: when your immune system has been compromised, nuts are out, at least when beginning to rebuild your immune system. They put a strain on your digestion. However, when you begin getting back on your feet, almonds (containing amygdalin, the main ingredient in Laetrile® ) are a must. For more digestible nuts, we highly recommend Candi Cole’s, Not Milk—Nut Milks. Find the almond recipes and follow the instructions. Her recipes taste wonderful and are extremely healthful. Avoid parsnips; animal studies show they cause cancer after a period of time. Avoid sugar and sugar substitutes. Avoid fried foods. Avoid foods that have chemical additives. Avoid foods cooked in a microwave. Top Foods that Fight Cancer Though most of the foods we will talk about are known to prevent cancer, you can assume that once your diet has begun to boost your immune system, these foods will help to fight the spread of cancer and contribute to your overall defense against any existing tumors. There are many books and articles written about foods that fight cancer. Here is what we’ve found: Fiber A high fiber/low fat diet is a cancer preventer and fighter. Fiber cleans your colon and combines with "stuck" fats to pass them on. It helps to lower cholesterol and tones your entire digestive track. The connection between low fiber intake and colon cancer has long been established, however, a recent study (1999) showed no connection between a high fiber diet and lowered colon cancer risks. We (here at this web ste) are going to check into this latest study before we buy into it, for any study can prove anything depending on the methodology. In breast cancer, there are two types of estrogen, good and bad estrogen. A high fiber diet lowers blood levels of estradiol, the bad estrogen. Top Starch From the British Journal of Cancer, June 1994, we’ve learned of the largest international study on links between colon cancer and consumption of starch. "After analyzing diet and cancer rates from 12 countries, they found a strong association between starch consumption and cancer of the large bowel, colon and rectum. On the average, the more starch consumed in a population, the lower the incidence of the diseases." Green bananas and cold boiled potatoes were cited as sources of virtually indigestible starches that might provide particularly strong protection against these cancers. Top Cruciferous Vegetables Cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, kale, and Chinese vegetables. They contain indole-3-carbinol that stimulates liver enzymes to reduce levels of hormones and immuno-suppressive agents. They also contain sulfur, which is an overlooked nutritional supplement. However if the gas from cruciferous veggies is too much, try Bok Choy with only two percent sulfur. At Cornell University, rats that were given a substance that causes breast cancer were separated into two groups and both were fed the same, except that one group got 20% ground up Brussels sprouts. 70% of the group not getting the Brussels sprouts developed cancers, compared to 13% in the Brussels sprout group. Additionally, when those who had come down with cancer were given Brussels sprouts, their cancers stopped spreading. [Cancer Letters, 88] It is also assumed that the indoles from cruciferous veggies fight breast cancer by either converting the cancer promoting type of estrogen to a harmless form or by preventing am overproduction of estrogen. [Environmental Nutrition, August, 1995] Sulforaphane, another phytochemical in cruciferous vegetables, has been shown to neutralize carcinogens before they could trigger tumors, and isothiocyanates, the chemicals that give these veggies their sharp flavor, "have been shown to slow the progression of cancerous cells in rats." [Health and Healing, August 1993, 3:8] Top Carotenoids Beta carotene (found in the yellow veggies such as yams, pumpkins, and carrots) is a powerful antioxidant that has been shown to inhibit the growth of tumors (and is used in Russia to fight infant leukemia), but few know about alpha carotene that has been demonstrated to be ten times more powerful in its inhibitory effect on tumors. (Murakoshi, Et Al: "Inhibitory Effects of Alpha Carotene on Proliferation of the Human Neuroblastoma Cell Line." Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 1989; 81.) Spinach and collard greens contain the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin which are powerful antioxidants that cannot be bought in a health food store. Spinach and collard greens are highest in these two carotenoids, followed by kale, mustard greens and turnip greens. A study in Northern Italy consisting of nearly 3,000 people showed that eating seven or more servings of tomatoes per week had a 50% to 60% lower risk of developing cancers of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, colon and rectum. It is believed that the cancer fighting substance in tomatoes is lycopene, an antioxidant and member of the carotenoid family. Lycopene remains stable when tomatoes are cooked or canned. [International Journal of Cancer, October 15, 1994] In 1998, the Israelis developed a tomato with ten times the amount of lycopene found in our present tomatoes. Look for them soon in supermarkets. Top Flax There is already at this web site lots of information on flax oil, and Johanna Budwig's recipe. The simple fact is that your omega oils protect you from cancer (especially breast cancers because breasts are made of fat) and have reversed cancers. Flax oil daily is a must for a cancer patient. Also good are fish oils and hemp oil, which is reputed to be the best oil for the human body, you have to take into consideration that the seeds from which we get hemp oil have been "denatured" and ... how is this process completed? We don't know. So, personally, I avoid it. Top Soybeans As mentioned earlier, Dr Balch recommends avoiding soy products because he claims they inhibit enzymatic action, however, the benefits of fermented soy products in fighting cancer and many other benefits must be mentioned. First off, foods made from soy lower blood cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease. All the plant chemicals found in the soy plant — phytate, phytosterols, phenolic acids, lecithin, omega-3 fatty acids, isoflavones, and protease inhibitors — protect against cancer. Proteases are chemicals (enzymes) that tumors give off to break down surrounding tissues to facilitate the growth of the tumor. Protease inhibitors (found in soybeans, lima beans, seeds and sprouts) can block the spread of cancer. ["Protease Inhibitors May Block Tumor Spread." Cancer Reporter, 1987;2] According to Morton Walker, a professional medical journalist ["Phytochemicals in Soybeans," Health Foods Business, March 1995]: The Japanese, Taiwanese, Koreans, and Indonesians eat a daily average of 40 grams of [fermented] soy foods per person, and experience 90 percent less [Sic] . . . cancers (and half the amount of colon cancer) than do Americans. He goes on to point out that the isoflavone components of soy are similar to the drug tamoxifen in their anti-estrogenic effect (lowering estrogen), and should be used daily for any estrogen related malignancies such as breast cancer. Here is where a controversy exists: the Gerson institute says soy brings back breast cancers while others state that soy fights breast cancers. We know that soy products, between 35 and 60 grams per day, will help to reduce a woman's chances of breast cancer. The phytoestrogen in soy is a "good" estrogen. It also helps to extend the menstrual cycle, as we've seen in Oriental women who have, on the average, a 33 day menstrual cycle (exercising daily can help extend the menstrual cycle too). With fewer menstrual periods in your life, you have less contact with estrogen. Another isoflavone component, genistein, inhibits prostate cancer by normalizing cancerous cells—death by prostate cancer is nearly nonexistent in the Orient—and in breast cancer, genistein stops the proliferative growth of cells that can differentiate into cancer. Furthermore, Walker states that the anti-angiogenetic (stopping the growth of new blood vessels) properties of genistein is on a par with shark cartilage. It works by neutralizing the vascular endothelial growth factor (IGF) put out by tumors to encourage new blood vessel growth. This being the case, pregnant women and persons with injuries could use soy products instead of shark cartilage to fight cancer. (See the section on shark cartilage in the article entitled "Alternative Cancer Therapies.") In his book , Concentrated Soybean Phytochemicals, Dr Walker also talks about the phytate in soy that "binds iron in the intestines to prevent it from generating free radicals," the saponins "which stop cellular mutations," and the phytosterols (suspected to have some effect in cancer prevention) "which neutralize the breakdown products of cholesterol and reduce the development of colon tumors and skin cancer." From the Tufts University Diet & Nutrition Letter (12:12, February 1995), we find that that the phytoestrogens (plant estrogens) will prove to be an alternative to estrogen replacement therapy. Premenopausal women consuming soy protein are protected by this natural antiestrogen, and after menopause they provide the lift estrogen therapy normally provides, but without the cancer risk. From Earl Mindell’s Soy Miracle, we find that soy foods contain antioxidants, boost the immune system, are easier on the kidneys than animal protein, might slow down or prevent kidney damage, and can protect against osteoporosis. A report from the Boston Globe (February 10,1995) spoke of an experiment in which human leukemia cells were injected into mice, and the soy derivative B43-genistein was administered killing all detectable leukemia cells. Top Other Beans Red, navy, pinto, etc. Studies have shown beans to be anti-carcinogenic. Also they are fiber filled which helps to keep the colon clear of fats and in a fit condition. Again, we must mention preparation and caution you against indigestion which leads to colon problems and to degenerative diseases: soak the beans overnight as needed (see below), and pour off the water. Add digestive enzymes to your meal to help with the flatulence. Beano® works for some. Beans should be complimented with whole grains for making high-quality protein. Here are some quick notes on a few types of beans: Aduki: used in oriental medicine for kidney ailments, good source of calcium, phosphorous, potassium, iron and Vitamin A. Garbanzo: (also known as chick peas) a staple in the Middle East (hummus), high in potassium, calcium, iron, and vitamin A. Lentils: available in different flavors, high in calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorous, sulfur and vitamin A. Considered a nutritional super food. Do not need to be soaked. Lima Beans: high in potassium, phosphorous, and vitamin A. Pinto Beans: rich in calcium, potassium and phosphorous. Soybeans: the only bean that is a complete protein by itself, and are 20% lecithin which is essential to every cell in the body (we recommend fermented soy products only). Bean Sprouts: like seed sprouts, contain more vitamins and minerals than the original beans they come from. Check out a book on sprouting your own, or pick up a copy of The Bread & Circus Whole Foods Bible. Top Sea Vegetables Sea veggies are high in iodine. According to Gerson, cancer is caused by a sodium/potassium imbalance, an acid/alkaline imbalance, and a lack of iodine. Sea veggies are an excellent source of Omega-3 fatty acids, contain a fiber that binds with steroids and carcinogens, and are great detoxicators and liver cleansers. Additionally, studies of the Japanese diets, which are high in seaweeds, seem to indicate that sea veggies might be involved in battling certain cancers and leukemia. (Yamamoto, Et Al: "Antitumor Activity of Edible Marine Algae: Effect of Crude Fucoidan Fractions Prepared from Edible Brown Seaweeds Against L-12100 Leukemia." Hydrobiologia, 1984;116/117.) The brown seaweed Laminaria has been linked to a lower incidence of breast cancer. (Cohen, Thompson, "Seaweed Blocks the Mammary Tumor Promoting Effects of High Fat Diets." International Breast Cancer Research Conference, Denver, CO., March 1983, Abstract 52, Willmintton, Del.: Stuart Pharmaceuticals, 1983.) Top Mushrooms According to J. Chilton in his article "Medicinal Mushroom Use on the Rise" in Vitamin Retailer, April 1994: Mushrooms . . . may have been one of the first "neutraceuticals," or foods that also function as medicines. . . . Mushroom polysaccharides act by enhancing host defenses, rather than directly killing tumor cells. For this reason they are called host defense potentiators (HPD). The specific effect of these polysaccharides is the activation of macrophages and T-lymphocytes, stimulation of interferon, and the overall enhancement of cell-mediated immune response." In addition to the Reishi mushroom having anti-aging and immunorestorative powers, studies from Japan, Korea, and Russia all showed reduction in tumors (98% in the Japan study with 80% complete remission). The phytochemical in the Shitake mushroom that scientists are now studying is called Lentinan, which has shown to stimulate macrophages, increase T-cell production, enhance helper T-cell activity, and increase interferon production. But the real cancer killer seems to be the Maitake mushroom which has been available wild but is now being cultivated. The National Cancer Institute began testing the Maitake in 1991 on both anti-HIV and anti-tumor activities and their results supported the findings of studies in Japan. Laboratory studies have shown that 97% of 300,000 HIV infected T-cells remained alive with a minimal amount (1/1000,000 gram) of maitake compound. The anti-cancer activity of the Maitake was even greater than that of the Shitake and Reishi, showing that both oral administration or injection inhibited cancer growth up to 86.3%. (Duke, James. "Mushrooms Mushrooming." Immune Perspectives, Winter, 1995] Most naturopaths claim that you cannot get as much medicinal "punch" from the actual mushroom as you can get from extracts sold in health food stores, but this depends on how much you eat. Including them with every meal, in salads, soups, and teas should allow you to get much of their benefit. While we’re on the subject of mushrooms, we should mention the latest fungus to make it into vogue in alternative medicine, the Kombucha. The Kombucha, to some, doesn’t really qualify as a mushroom—it is a fungal scum that you can grow in your kitchen. It has been touted as the new fountain of youth and as a cure for AIDS. However, there have been no third party studies done on the Kombucha, and all the material available comes from those marketing it. Because we have not been able to find any objective evidence on its properties, we can tell you only what people in the wellness community are saying about it. If you make it up at home, it can get contaminated. Additionally, it seems to be a powerful antibiotic, and therefore you should treat is as such, using it only when needed and not capriciously. Until studies by outside parties are available, we can’t tell you much more. Top Just a few more . . . Lutein is another cancer battler and is found in watercress, spinach, dark green veggies and eggs. Asparagus seems to be linked to the remission of more than a few disorders, including cancer. According to Karl Lutz, this is because of the high folic acid, nucleic acid, and histone (basic protein) levels found in asparagus. In Beating the Odds, Dr Machetti points to a study that discovered that methyl mercaptan, which is secreted into the urine following a meal with asparagus, has distinct anticancer qualities. Garlic and onions should be consumed daily, with a minimum of 4 cloves of garlic, if sensitive to it, 7 if not. The phytochemicals (plant chemicals) in garlic and onions have been shown to increase T-cell activity, and garlic contains a safe form of germanium, which helps the blood and tissues hold more oxygen. Remember, cancer hates oxygen. Studies also show that garlic can increase T-cell activity, and, interestingly enough, aged garlic seems to work even better. However, many preparations of garlic are devoid of the volatile oils, and there has been much controversy on why you would want to avoid these volatile oils versus why you would want them. Dr Block, in his article "Chemistry of Garlic and Onions" published in the March 1985 edition of Scientific American, states that the volatile oils are the physiologically active factors of garlic and recommends that fresh garlic be used. Additionally it was discovered that lab animals implanted with tumors and fed garlic and a low protein diet showed no tumor growth, while the control animals came down with full blown cancer. And apparently the substance Allium, found in onions and garlic, inhibits stomach cancer in groups at high risk.

The official Sanskrit name for India is Bharat. INDIA has been called Bharat even in Satya yuga ( Golden Age ) INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT India The name `India’ is derived from the River Indus, the valleys around which were the home of the early settlers. The Aryan worshippers referred to the river Indus as the Sindhu. The Persian invaders converted it into Hindu. The name `Hindustan’ combines Sindhu and Hindu and thus refers to the land of the Hindus. The number system was invented by India. Aryabhatta was the scientist who invented the digit zero. Sanskrit is considered as the mother of all higher languages. This is because it is the most precise, and therefore suitable language for computer software. ( a report in Forbes magazine, July 1987 ). Chess was invented in India. Algebra, Trigonometry and Calculus are studies which originated in India. The' place value system' and the 'decimal system' were developed in 100 BC in India. The first six Mogul Emperor's of India ruled in an unbroken succession from father to son for two hundred years, from 1526 to 1707. The World's First Granite Temple is the Brihadeswara temple at Tanjavur in Tamil Nadu. The shikhara is made from a single ' 80-tonne ' piece of granite. Also, this magnificient temple was built in just five years, (between 1004 AD and 1009 AD) during the reign of Rajaraja Chola India is.......the Largest democracy in the world, the 6th largest country in the world AND one of the most ancient and living civilizations (at least 10, 000 years old). The game of snakes & ladders was created by the 13th century poet saint Gyandev. It was originally called 'Mokshapat.' The ladders in the game represented virtues and the snakes indicated vices. The game was played with cowrie shells and dices. Later through time, the game underwent several modifications but the meaning is the same i.e good deeds take us to heaven and evil to a cycle of re-births. The world's highest cricket ground is in Chail, Himachal Pradesh. Built in 1893 after levelling a hilltop, this cricket pitch is 2444 meters above sea level. India has the most post offices in the world ! The largest employer in the world is the Indian railway system, employing over a million people !. The World's first university was established in Takshila in 700 BC. More than 10,500 students from all over the world studied more than 60 subjects. The University of Nalanda built in the 4th century was one of the greatest achievements of ancient India in the field of education. Ayurveda is the earliest school of medicine known to mankind. The father of medicine, Charaka, consolidated Ayurveda 2500 years ago. Although modern images & descriptions of India often show poverty, India was one of the richest countries till the time of British in the early 17th Century. Christopher Columbus was attracted by India's wealth and was looking for route to India when he discovered America by mistake. The art of Navigation & Navigating was born in the river Sindh 6000 over years ago. The very word 'Navigation' is derived from the Sanskrit word NAVGATIH. The word navy is also derived from the Sanskrit word 'Nou'. Bhaskaracharya rightly calculated the time taken by the earth to orbit the sun hundreds of years before the astronomer Smart. His calculations was - Time taken by earth to orbit the sun: ( 5th century ) 365.258756484 days. The value of "pi" was first calculated by the Indian Mathematician Budhayana, and he explained the concept of what is known as the Pythagorean Theorem. He discovered this in the 6th century, which was long before the European mathematicians. Algebra, trigonometry and calculus also orignated from India. Quadratic equations were used by Sridharacharya in the 11th century. The largest numbers the Greeks and the Romans used were 106 whereas Hindus used numbers as big as 10*53 ( i.e 10 to the power of 53 ) with specific names as early as 5000 B.C. during the Vedic period. Even today, the largest used number is Tera: 10*12( 10 to the power of 12 ). Until 1896, India was the only source for diamonds to the world. ( Source . Gemological Institute of America ) The Baily Bridge is the highest bridge in the world. It is located in the Ladakh valley between the Dras and Suru rivers in the Himalayan mountains. It was built by the Indian Army in August 1982. Sushruta is regarded as the father of surgery. Over 2600 years ago Sushrata & his team conducted complicated surgeries like cataract, artificial limbs, cesareans, fractures, urinary stones and also plastic surgery and brain surgeries. Usage of anesthesia was well known in ancient India medicine. Detailed knowledge of anatomy, embryology, digestion, metabolism, physiology, etiology, genetics and immunity is also found in many ancient Indian texts. Did you know ? India also celebrates the birthday of Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, former President and Vice-President and great statesman, as "Teachers' Day". Born on September 5, 1888, at Tiruttani, 40 miles to the north-east of Madras, Radhakrishnan grew to become the most famous Indian teacher and philosopher of all times. In his honour, this day is celebrated as Teacher's Day. He was also the Vice-President of India from 1952-1962. He held the office of the Chancellor, University of Delhi, before taking over as the President of India in May 1962. "What makes a nation, is the past, what justifies one nation against others is the past", says the noted historian Eric Hobsbawm. Hence, when talking of a nation, it becomes very imperative that the past should also be talked about. And the past of India is as fascinating and interesting as it is momentous. Proud to be Indian ! Jai Hind !

परम्परागत ज्ञान अंकीय पुस्‍तकालय (टीकेडीएल)-जैविक चोरी के खिलाफ परम्परागत भारतीय ज्ञान के संरक्षण का कारगर और नवीन माध्यम वि‍शेष लेख: ज्ञान - समीर के. ब्रह्मचारी परम्परागत ज्ञान अंकीय iqLrdky; (टीकेडीएल) वैज्ञानिक एवं औद्योगिक अनुसंधान परिषद, विज्ञान और प्रौद्योगिकी एवं पृथ्वी विज्ञान मंत्रालय तथा आयुष विभाग, स्वास्थ्य एवं परिवार कल्याण मंत्रालय का एक सहयोगपूर्ण उद्यम तथा अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट कार्यालयों में भारत से सम्बद्ध परम्परागत ज्ञान का गलत प्रयोग रोकने का पहला भारतीय प्रयास है। टीकेडीएल ने आयुर्वेद, यूनानी, सिद्ध और योग के संस्कृत, हिंदी, अरबी, फारसी, उर्दू और तमिल में तीन करोड़ 40 लाख ए-4 आकार वाले पृष्ठों में संजोए परम्परागत चिकित्सकीय ज्ञान को वैज्ञानिक रूप से परिवर्तित और योजनाबद्ध करके भाषा और प्रारूप की रुकावटें मिटा दी हैं। उसने सूचना प्रौद्योगिकी के उपकरणों तथा नवीन वर्गीकरण प्रणाली-परम्परागत ज्ञान संसाधन वर्गीकरण (टीकेआरसी) की मदद से इस सामग्री का अनुवाद अंग्रेजी, जापानी, फ्रांसीसी, जर्मन और स्पेनिश जैसी पांच अंतर्राष्ट्रीय भाषाओं में किया गया है। आज, भारत टीकेडीएल के माध्यम से नीम और हल्दी जैसे करीब 2.45 लाख चिकित्सकीय संरूपों को संरक्षित करने में सक्षम है। अधिगम (गोपनीयता) समझौते के तहत आठ अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट कार्यालयों को टीकेडीएल तक पहुंच दी गई है जिनमें यूरोपीय पेटेंट कार्यालय (ईपीओ), भारतीय पेटेंट कार्यालय, जर्मन पेटेंट कार्यालय (जीपीओ), यूनाइटेड किंगडम इंटलेक्चुअल प्रॉपर्टी ऑफिस (यूकेपीटीओ), यूनाइटेड स्टेट्स पेटेंट एंड ट्रेडमार्क ऑफिस (यूएसपीटीओ), कनाडियन इंटलेक्चुअल प्रॉपर्टी ऑफिस (सीआईपीओ), आईपी ऑस्ट्रेलिया और जापान पेटेंट कार्यालय (जेपीओ) शामिल हैं। टीकेडीएल टीम द्वारा दाखिल तीसरे पक्ष के पर्यवेक्षण के आधार पर अब तक अमेरिका, ब्रिटेन, स्पेन, इटली, चीन आदि की औषधि निर्माता कम्पनियों के 53 आवेदन या तो खारिज किए जा चुके है या वापस ले लिए जा चुके हैं/रद्द कर दिए गए हैं या टीकेडीएल डाटाबेस में मौजूद सूचना के आधार पर बिना किसी खर्च के और तीसरे पक्ष के पर्यवेक्षण दर्ज किए जाने के कुछ ही हफ्तों के भीतर उन्हें निष्क्रिय पेटेंट आवेदन घोषित कर दिया गया है, जबकि पेटेंट को रद्द कराने में चार से 13 साल तक कानूनी जंग लड़नी पड़ती है। गलत पेटेंट दिए जाने के मामले को टीकेडीएल द्वारा नवीन, उपयोगी और कारगर ढंग से रोके जाने पर गौर करते हुए कई देशों और संगठनों ने अपने यहां मौजूद मॉडल की जगह टीकेडीएल लागू करने की इच्छा व्यक्त की है। वैश्विक समुदाय सहित विश्व बौद्धिक सम्पदा संगठन ने बौद्धिक सम्पदा अधिकार और परम्परागत ज्ञान के क्षेत्र में भारत की अग्रणी भूमिका स्वीकार की है। टीकेडीएल पहल का प्रारम्भ टीकेडीएल पहल की शुरूआत हल्दी के घाव भरने के गुणों का यूएसपीटीओ में तथा नीम के फफूंदी रोधी गुणों का ईपीओ में पेटेंट रद्द कराने के भारतीय प्रयासों जितनी पुरानी है। इसके अलावा, 2005 में, टीकेडीएल विशेषज्ञ समूह ने अनुमान व्यक्त किया कि हर साल अंतर्राष्ट्रीय स्तर पर दवाओं की भारतीय चिकित्सा प्रणालियों से सम्बद्ध करीब 2000 गलत पेटेंट प्रदान किए जाते हैं। इसकी मुख्य वजह यह है भारत का परम्परागत चिकित्सकीय ज्ञान संस्कृत, हिंदी, अरबी, फारसी, उर्दू, तमिल आदि भाषाओं में था, जो अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट कार्यालयों के पेटेंट जांचकर्ताओं के लिए न तो सुलभ था और न ही बोधगम्य। अमेरिका और यूरोप में ये पेटेंट्स प्रदान किया जाना राष्ट्रीय स्तर पर बहुत दुख का कारण बना। तभी से हर भारतीय को महसूस होने लगा कि भारत का ज्ञान गलत तरीके से उससे छीन लिया गया है। इसके अलावा पेटेंट प्रदान करने वाले देश में, पेटेंट के आवेदक को प्रौद्योगिकी के इस्तेमाल के अलग से अधिकार प्राप्त हो जाते थे। टीकेडीएल ने परम्परागत ज्ञान पर भाषा और अधिगम की सीमाएं तोड़ीं टीकेडीएल ने तीन करोड़ 40 लाख ए-4 आकार वाले पृष्ठों में संस्कृत, हिंदी, अरबी, फारसी, उर्दू और तमिल में संजोए गए परम्परागत चिकित्सकीय ज्ञान को वैज्ञानिक रूप से परिवर्तित और योजनाबद्ध करके भाषा और प्रारूप की रुकावटें दूर कर दी हैं। उसने सूचना प्रौद्योगिकी के उपकरणों तथा नवीन वर्गीकरण प्रणाली-परम्परागत ज्ञान संसाधन वर्गीकरण (टीकेआरसी) की मदद से इस सामग्री का अनुवाद अंग्रेजी, जापानी, फ्रांसीसी, जर्मन और स्पेनिश जैसी पांच अंतर्राष्ट्रीय भाषाओं में किया गया है। आज, भारत टीकेडीएल के माध्यम से नीम और हल्दी जैसे करीब 2.45 लाख चिकित्सकीय संरूपों को संरक्षित करने में सक्षम है। अंतर्राष्ट्रीय स्तर पर प्रदान किए गए किसी पेटेंट का विरोध करने में औसतन पांच से सात वर्ष लगते हैं, जिस पर एक से तीन करोड़ रुपये खर्च हो सकते हैं। टीकेडीएल की गैर मौजूदगी में 2.45 लाख चिकित्सकीय संरूपों के संरक्षण में होने वाले खर्च की सिर्फ कल्पना ही की जा सकती है। परम्परगत ज्ञान संसाधन वर्गीकरण-परम्परागत ज्ञान की संरचना का एक नवीन तंत्र टीकेडीएल परियोजना के तहत परम्परगत ज्ञान से सम्बद्ध विषयवस्तु के वर्गीकरण के लिए भारत द्वारा अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट वर्गीकरण (आईपीसी) की संरचना के आधार पर एक वर्गीकरण प्रणाली यानी परम्परागत ज्ञान संसाधन वर्गीकरण (टीकेआरसी) बनाई गई है जिसमें आयुर्वेद, यूनानी, सिद्ध और योग के लिए तकरीबन 27,000 उपसमूह हैं। टीकेआरसी के गठन का उद्देश्य न सिर्फ भारतीय परम्परागत चिकित्सा का संरचनात्मक वर्गीकरण करना था बल्कि उसका एक संक्षिप्त एवं रोग निवृत्ति माध्यम के रूप में इस्तेमाल करना भी था। अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट वर्गीकरण पर टीकेआरसी का प्रभाव टीकेडीएल, अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट वर्गीकरण (आईपीसी) के सुधार के लिए उत्तरदायी रही है। इसने परम्परागत ज्ञान पर आईपीसी एक उपसमूह से बढ़ाकर 207 उपसमूह कर दिया जिससे वह परम्परागत ज्ञान के विषय से सम्बद्ध पेटेंट आवेदनों की कारगर पड़ताल और परीक्षण प्रणाली में सक्षम हो सका। अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट प्रणाली में परम्परागत ज्ञान के संदर्भ में आईपीसी सुधार बुनियादी सुधार हैं जिनका दीर्घकालिक प्रभाव होगा। टीकेडीएल ने परम्परागत ज्ञान धारक (धारकों) के ज्ञान और अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट परीक्षकों के फासले, प्रारूप और भाषाओं की वर्जनाएं तोड़ीं टीकेडीएल स्वामित्व सम्पन्न और मौलिक डाटाबेस है। टीकेडीएल भारतीय चिकित्सा प्रणालियों की 148 पुस्तकों पर आधारित है, जो 50,000 रुपये मूल्य पर उपलब्ध हैं। ये पुस्तके पूर्ववर्ती कला हैं और राष्ट्रीय/अंतर्राष्ट्रीय स्तर पर किसी भी व्यक्ति/संगठन द्वारा स्रोत बनायी जा सकती हैं। टीकेडीएल इन पुस्तकों और अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट परीक्षकों के बीच पुल का कार्य करती हैं। टीकेडीएल प्रौद्योगिकी की बदौलत ईपीओ या किसी भी अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट कार्यालय में परीक्षक द्वारा अपनी कम्प्‍यूटर स्क्रीन पर संस्कृत के श्लोक को जर्मन, जापानी, अंग्रेजी, स्पेनिश और फ्रेंच जैसी भाषाओं में पढ़ने का एक अनूठा तंत्र विकसित किया गया है। टीकेडीएल (गोपनीयता) अधिगम समझौते के तहत टीकेडीएल तक पहुंच टीकेडीएल (गोपनीयता) अधिगम समझौते के तहत अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट कार्यालय को टीकेडीएल तक पहुंच उपलब्ध कराई गई है। इस समझौते के तहत, पेटेंट कार्यालय के परीक्षक सिर्फ पड़ताल और परीक्षण उद्देश्यों के लिए टीकेडीएल का इस्तेमाल कर सकते हैं और टीकेडीएल की विषयवस्तु का खुलासा किसी तीसरे पक्ष के समक्ष तब तक नहीं कर सकते जब तक दृष्टांत के लिए ऐसा किया जाना आवश्यक न हो। टीकेडीएल अधिगम समझौते की प्रकृति अनूठी है और भारतीय हितों की रक्षा के लिए किसी भी सम्भावित गलत इस्तेमाल को रोकने के वास्ते उसमें गोपनीयता संरक्षण निहित है। भारत ने (1) यूरोपीय पेटेंट कार्यालय (ईपीओ) के साथ (फरवरी 2009 में), (2)यूनाइटेड स्टेट पेटेंट एवं ट्रेडमार्क कार्यालय के साथ (नवम्बर 2009 में) (प्रधानमंत्री की आधिकारिक अमेरिका यात्रा के दौरान), (3)भारतीय पेटेंट कार्यालय के साथ (जुलाई 2009 में), (4)कनाडियन बौद्धिक सम्पदा कार्यालय के साथ (सितम्बर 2010 में),(5)जर्मन पेटेंट कार्यालय के साथ (अक्टूबर 2009 में),(6) यूनाइटेड किंगडम पेटेंट कार्यालय के साथ (फरवरी 2010 में), इंटलेक्चुअल प्रॉपर्टी ऑस्ट्रेलिया के साथ (जनवरी 2011 में) और जापान पेटेंट कार्यालय के साथ (अप्रैल 2011 में) टीकेडीएल अधिगम समझौते पर हस्ताक्षर किए हैं। परम्परगत ज्ञान के संरक्षण के लिए टीकेडीएल पड़ताल और रोगनिवृत्ति क्षमताएं टीकेडीएल एक ऐसा डाटाबेस है जिसने में अपनी कारगरता साबित की है और जो विभिन्न अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट कार्यालयों में तीसरे पक्ष का पर्यवेक्षण दाखिल करके सैकड़ों पेटेंट आवेदनों का विरोध करने में कामयाब रहा है। ज्यादातर देशों के राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट कानूनों में यह प्रावधान है किसी भी व्यक्ति द्वारा पेटेंट कार्यालय में किसी भी आधुनिक/पूर्ववर्ती कला पर किसी पेटेंट आवेदन के प्रकाशित होने के बाद और पेटेंट प्रदान करने से पूर्व पेटेंट आवेदन की विलक्षणता और स्पष्टता पर प्रश्न उठाते हुए निवेदन किया जा सकता है। अंतर्राष्ट्रीय पेटेंट कार्यालयों में पेटेंट को चुनौती देना लम्बी और खर्चीली प्रक्रिया है। मिसाल के तौर पर मैक्सिको 10 साल से भी ज्यादा लम्बी कानूनी लड़ाई के बाद जुलाई 2009 में यूएसपीटीओ में एनोला बीन पर पेटेंट रद्द कराने में कामयाब हो सका। इसी तरह 13 साल की कानूनी लड़ाई के बाद ईपीओ में मोनसोनटो सोयाबीन पेटेंट को जुलाई 2007 में रद्द कराया जा सका। भारत दुनिया का अकेला देश है, जिसने अपने परम्परागत ज्ञान की रक्षा के लिए एक संस्थागत तंत्र (टीकेडीएल) विकसित किया है और गलत पेटेंट दिया जाना रोकने में सक्षम रहा है। टीकेडीएल बिना किसी खर्च के और चंद सप्ताहों के भीतर ही भारत के परम्परागत ज्ञान से सम्बद्ध गलत पेटेंट आवेदनों को रद्द कराने/वापस कराने में सक्षम बनाता है। इसके एकदम विपरीत, टीकेडीएल की अनुपस्थिति में ईपीओ में फंफूदरोधी गुणों के लिए नीम का पेटेंट रद्द कराने में 10 साल (1995-2005)लग गये थे। जैव-चोरी के खिलाफ टीकेडीएल का प्रभाव पिछले दो वर्षों में पहले से ही महत्वपूर्ण प्रभाव महसूस किया गया है। जुलाई 2009 से लेकर, टीकेडीएल दल ने 571 तीसरे पक्ष के पर्यवेक्षण दाखिल किए हैं जिनमें से अमरीका, ब्रिटेन, स्पेन, इटली और चीन आदि की औषधि निर्माता कम्पनियों के 53 पेटेंट आवेदन टीकेडीएल डाटाबेस में मौजूद सूचना के आधार पर या तो खारिज कर दिए गए हैं या वापस लिए/रद्द किए गए हैं या निष्क्रिय पेटेंट आवेदन घोषित कर दिए गए हैं। टीकेडीएल: अन्य देशों के लिए मॉडल नवीनता, उपयोगिता और गलत पेटेंट दिलाने से रोकने में इसकी कारगता को देखते हुए दक्षिण अफ्रीका, मंगोलिया, थाईलैंड, मलेशिया, एआरआईपीओ, नाइजीरिया, इंडोनेशिया आदि जैसे बहुत से देशों और संगठनों ने अपने देश में मौजूद मॉडल को टीकेडीएल से बदलने की इच्छा जाहिर की है। वैश्विक समुदाय सहित विश्व बौद्धिक सम्पदा संगठन (डब्ल्यूआईपीओ)ने बौद्धिक सम्पदा के अधिकार और परम्परागत ज्ञान के क्षेत्र में भारत की अग्रणी भूमिका स्वीकार की है। परम्परागत ज्ञान के संरक्षण के मॉडल के रूप में भारत द्वारा स्थापित टीकेडीएल के उपयोग पर डब्ल्यूआईपीओ ने सीएसआईआर के सहयोग से नई दिल्ली में मार्च 2011 में एक अंतर्राष्ट्रीय सम्मेलन का आयोजन किया था। इस सम्मेलन में समृद्ध परम्परागत ज्ञान वाले 35 देशों ने हिस्सा लिया था। ताकि वे टीकेडीएल के गठन की प्रक्रिया समझ सकें और अपने देश के परम्परागत ज्ञान के संरक्षण के लिए ऐसे किसी मॉडल को लागू कर सकें।

जब भारत की सरकार स्वामी रामदेव जी के फंडे पर काम करके 30 करोड नौकरियों का जुगाड मात्र 10 साल में कर सकती है तो वह आरक्षण के पीछे क्यों पड़ी हुई है। पढ़िए कैसे......और अगर पसंद आये तो शेयर करें.....!! . . . . 1. आज के दिन भारत की लाखों छोटी मोटी खिलौना बनाने वाली कम्पनियाँ इसलिय बंद हो गयी कि सरकार की तरफ से उनको न तो कोई आर्थिक मदद मिली न तकनीकी, यदि 100 का औसत पकडें तो करीब 2 करोड़ लोग बेरोजगार हो गए। 2. भारत में साबुन से लेकर बनियान तक बनाने वाली 5000 विदेशी कंपनियों ने भारत का सब रोजगार (करीब 12 करोड़) विदेशो में भेज दिया है साथ ही साथ हर साल करीब 15 से 16 लाख करोड़ रुपये विदेश जा रहा है। 3. इस पर तुर्रा यह की रोज रोज एफ़डीआई को नए नए क्षेत्र में खोला जा रहा है। यदि खुदरा में भी एफ़डीआई खोल दिया जाये तो भारत का 12 करोड़ रोजगार और भारत से बाहर विदेशो में पैदा होगा जिससे भारत के लोग और बेरोजगार होंगे। 4. स्वामी रामदेवजी ने कितने लोगो को स्थाई रोजगार अपने योग और आयुर्वेद के बल पर दिया है इस पर किसी ने ध्यान नहीं दिया है। इनके हर आरोग्य केंद्र पर 5 से 6 लोगों को नौकरी मिल रही है। एक एक जिले में 2 से 4 ऐसे केंद्र हैं और भारत में 628 जिले हैं। इसके बाद इनका उत्पाद बेचने वाले हर दूकान पर 2 से 4 लोगो को नौकरी मिली हुई है और यह आरोग्य केंद्र अब हर गाँव में खोलने की योजना है। तो सोचिये मात्र देशी चीजों से कितना रोजगार पैदा होगा। पतंजलि योगपीठ में भी शायद 8000 लोग नौकरी करते है। यदि गाय- खेती-योग-आयुर्वेद की चौकड़ी पर ध्यान दिया जाये तो इससे कम से कम 5 करोड रोजगार मात्र 3 साल में पैदा हो जायेगा तथा विदेशियों पर निर्भरता कम हो जायेगी। 5. जिस तरह से अमेरिका भारत को तेल को लेकर परेशानी में डाल रहा है, स्वामी रामदेव जी की चले तो गौ हत्या बंद करवाकर उसी गोबर गैस को सिलिंडर में भर कर गाड़ियों में सीएनजी जैसा उपयोग किया जाये और हर घर पर 200 वाट का सोलर पैनल दिखे। 6. वकीलों की जमात कांग्रेस सरकार अंग्रेजो की तरह ही 500 रुपये और 5 लाख करोड़ रुपये के भ्रष्टाचार को बराबर मानकर पहले 500 रुपये वाले को जेल भेजती है बाद में जनता को आरक्षण और कुशवाहा जैसे मामलों में उलझाकर महत्वपूर्ण समय बिताकर इलेक्ट्रोनिक वोटिंग मशीन से जीत हासिल कर लेती है। कलमाड़ी, कनिमोझी जैसे सेकड़ों हजारों करोड़ के भ्रष्टाचारी देशद्रोही जमानत पा लेते हैं और 500 रूपये वाला जेल में सड़ रहा होता है। ये अब किसी भी हालत में खत्म होना चाहिए और राष्ट्रभक्तों की जमात पहले देश चलाये फिर दुनिया...अब भारत को ऐसे नेतृत्व की आवश्यकता है जो भारत के अंतिम व्यक्ति की सोचे, समान और मुफ्त शिक्षा व्यवस्था, चिकित्सा व्यवस्था उपलब्ध कराये, भ्रष्टाचार पर लगाम लगाये और न्याय व्यवस्था भी सुधारे। वर्तमान में न्याय के नाम पर सिर्फ फैसले सुनाये जा रहे हैं और विदेशी न्याय व्यवस्था के कारण देश में अपराध बढ़ रहे हैं...!! जागो भारतियों जागो...!! जय भारत स्वाभिमान ! जय स्वामी रामदेव जी !! जय हिंद !! जय भारत !! वन्देमातरम !! ॥ पसंद आए तो शेयर करें ॥ # @[222235904473060:274:ये है हिंदुस्तान मेरी जान]

Hinduism - The Breeder Of World Religions? - All europeans were Hindu's (Vedic) at one point of time This article is just a Critical Analysis, and in no way a fool proof claim. I haven't been to the past, so I use Logic. Globally Accepted Facts Hinduism - Factually accepted to be the Oldest Religion Vedas - Factually accepted to be the Oldest Religious Script as well as the Oldest written Document (hence symbolising the most ancient literate society) Aryans (Aryas') - The common race from which Europeans and Indians (also Irani's) are known to have been derived. Aryan is derived from the Sanskrit word 'Arya' meaning 'A Noble Person'. Unfortunately a psycho German tainted the term, but 'Arya' was never a race, but a society of people with one belief. But yes Indian race is just a tanned version of the caucassian race (genetically proved). Proto-Indo-Europeans - The Aryans (Europeans and Indians) were known to be a single society at one distant point of time, which we cannot trace. Hence Philosophists call it Proto-Indo-European era. Proto-Indo-European - The common language from which Latin/Greek/Sanskrit were derived, and in turn from which the modern day Languages have been derived. English is a very close derivative of Sanskrit, as we will see. Aryan Invasion Theory - Max Muller, a British Linguist, bred a theory called the Aryan Invasion theory, after realising that the Language spoken in the Indian Subcontinent was very much similar to his. According to him, Aryans originated in eastern Europe/Central Asia (Southern Russian Steppes). A pack of them migrated south and formed the 'Vedic India'. (The theory is flawed, as we will see). Now I begin a quest into what the old civilization might have been like. Assuming Hinduism was formed after one segment of Aryans moved south into Northern India, we will be admitting that the initial Proto-Indo-European (PIE) society didn't have an organised religion. But however we see that the one of the very core English words, MAN, is derived from a Hindu mythology of a person called "Manu". In hindi we call "man" Manav and in Sanskrit, Manushya (Manu + Shishya = Followers of Manu). Hinduism existed in the PIE period It is known that the word "Manu" is synonymous with the Vedas. Manu, the saviour of mankind, is hailed throughout all the four Vedas. Hence either Vedas were written prior to emmigration, or somehow the word travelled north back to the Northern residents and got in popular use. The latter case is straight away impractical. Every european culture has the word "Manu" as the root of the word "Man" but none provide a legend behind it. Also, the word never travelled north, since the Aryan invasion theory is flawed, as we see later. Hence Vedas were written prior to seperation. Hence the PIE society did follow Hinduism or Vedic Culture to be precise. Indian's aren't Aryans migrated from the North http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A760240 Check that link, and look at the last Ice Age periods. Considering we still had 'Cold Snaps' till 3000BC, it's evident that the best place to inhibit (in Asia/Europe) was India for the past 20,000 years. Supporters of Aryan Invasion Theory claim that Veda's describe War with local inhabitants of India. Yes, true, and it also says that those local inhabitants (dursyaas) were eliminated in the battle. I agree that aryans did migrate into India from the North but they were the original tribal aryans that existed 15000 years back. 15000 years back man had just learned to cultivate crops and live a civilized life, form society and protect its existence. There may not even be a formal spoken language, let alone a written language or script. To explain that, suppose I have just learned to write and I sit down to write Indian History, I will write, "The greatest Indian King of all time was Ashoka, the sinner turned saint, the emperor who ruled from dawn to dusk (east to west)." Then I also go on to mention that the best modern day Prime Minister of India was "AB Vajpayee". What I miss is the time gap. There is a gap of 2300 years. Veda's describe everything in accurate detail, but fail to mention the Timeline. It seems everything is described in quick succession, but actually, a long span of time has been covered in "Past Tense". So when Historians analyse the Vedas, they are simply unable to decipher the time line codes. So what's the proof that Aryan's didnt come from north? The fact that not even a Single European land is mentioned in the Vedas. Ofcourse, that place was uninhabitable for a long period. Veda's never speak of comming down from the North. It just mentions the capturing of land around the River Saraswati and killing of Dursyas. I had a speak with an Archeologist and he supported the Timeline misguidance concept. The killing of Dursyas and settling around river saraswati was an ancient History, when man had just learnt the art cultivation and civilization. Flaw of the Aryan Invasion Theory Aryan Invasion Theory has been contradicted all together with the Discovery of the Ancient City of Dwarka which is submerged in the sea as of now (and as described in Mythology). The city dates to be as old as 7000 years. The Aryans were known to have arrived in India only by 3000-1500BC. So how come a city 7000 years old, located at the exact spot where the Sacred Hindu text, Mahabharata describes it to be, was found? And above all, unlike most discovered ancient cities, this one is Submerged in the sea, exactly as happened in Mahabharata. The Mahabharata very clearly states that the city sank in the sea after the death of Lord Krishna. Not only does this discovery INTENSIFY the truth factor behind Mahabharata, it converts the Mythology factor to History factor. The society described in Mahabharata was the PIE Society Yes, now this would be the major claim. From here, I would like you to research a bit on Mahabharata, and judge for yourself. Mahabharata describes a Very Very advanced society with modern infrastructure. Any person well versed with the literature, would deem it to be fictional, due to the sheer amount of advancement described. I believe that it was the PIE society that was described then. They spoke Sanskrit (what about Greek/Latin?), and believed in the Vedic Culture. Vedic culture was even more sophisticated than the present day Hinduism. Why was Sanskrit the PIE Language? Why not Greek or Latin? Study Sanskrit and you will know for yourself. It is the MOST ADVANCED AND MOST WELL DEFINED LANGUAGE OF THE WORLD. This is not a claim but a proven Fact. It is the ONE AND ONLY UNAMBIGUOUS GRAMMAR. If Artificial Intelligence in Natural Language Processing was developed, Sanskrit is the only Language that a computer would be able to understand without a single problem. Sanskrit is the OLDEST SPOKEN/WRITTEN LANGUAGE. The Devnagri script, in which Sanskrit is written, has this special property that when letters are made from hollow tubes with openings at the end, you pump air from any end, and the alphabet will make a sound as it does when spoken! Devnagri script is still in use in Hindi. And, like told before, there are certain words in Greek/Latin, which have no legend behind them, but have one in Sanskrit. How did the society break up? How were new cultures ever formed? The Vedas describe the cycle of evolution of life in four yugas (epochs/era) 1. Satya Yuga or Krita Yuga (Zero Vice, No one lies, every one is spiritual) 2. Treta Yuga (Vice is introduced, Ramayana happened in this Yuga) 3. Dvapara Yuga (Vice starts gaining popularity. Mahabharata was fought in this Yuga/era. With the end of Maharabharat, this Yuga ended.) 4. Kali Yuga (Vice at its height. Immorality everywhere, and evil will be at its such heights, that Lord Shiv - The destroyer, will himself take an incarnation and end the Yuga. After that the Satya yuga will prevail.) Now as mentioned, the Mahabharata ends, and so does the Dvapara Yuga. It's an interesting read of how Mahabharata ended. It ended with the final use of a weapon called "Brahmastra". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahmastra This weapon has been speculated to be a nuclear weapon. The way devastation has been explained, is synonymous only with a Nuclear Weapon. Also the practical detail cannot be pure fiction. Like the author says, it had power of 1000 suns, there was an incandescent column of smoke, when the bomb exploded, pottery broke miles away. Soldiers who had come in contact of radiation removed their protections and dived into water/river. Nails and hairs of soldiers fell. No one survived within a radius of many cities. There would be a famine for 12 years and mankind would end. Apart from that, if you google a bit, you will learn that there is sufficient evidence that Indus valley civilization was wiped out by a nuclear explosion. Hence my straight forward, simple and logical explanation of how societies divided, and everything was re-initiated from scratch. For those who would disagree saying that this much technology was not possible then, I say, where were we 500 years back? Horse drawn chariots and swords? When we talk of a span of 7000 years at the minimum, couldn't these 500 years have happened then? Also if you read about the Nine Unknown Men (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Unknown_Men) you will see, how the Sinner turned Saint (Ashoka), tried to prevent misuse of technology. I also suggest reading about the Ancient Indian Vimaans. The Indo-Europeans were indeed very much ahead in technology. Unique facts of Hinduism It's a very scientific religion, and has never debarred anyone from scientific research. India invented modern Mathematics (Decimal system, algebra etc). India has had the best medical science, acknowledged even today, Ayurveda. The science of Breathing, Yoga, is simply revolutionary. > Lord Krishna makes a very rare statement in the Gita: "Time is the seed of Universe" (If there is no time, there is no universe). Einstein loved that. > Moksha can be achieved by three (very logical) ways: By submitting yourself to God By Karma (Well doing for others) By gaining Knowledge (This one is rare.) > God is defined as 'Sarvagya' (The one who has unlimited knowledge) > Everything is made up of five elements. Earth Fire Water Air and Ether. The five elements are basically the five states of matter. Earth = Solid, Water = Liquid, Air = Gas, Fire = Plasma It is well evident that they put Ether = Empty space, also as a state of matter. And that is the most authentic part of it. By the statement of Lord Krishna, we know they knew about Space-Time. As we know today, anything that occupies space in Space-Time. is a form of matter. And hence so is Ether. This is an ad-on Lingual Similarities in English-Sanskrit These are just a few of thousands of such words. I will just list the core words of English and their Sanskrit/Hindi equivalents. English / Sanskrit -------- ---------- Mother / Maatru Father /Pitra/Pither (Papa comes from this) Brother /Bhraatu Name/ Naam I am/ Aham That /Tat is /Ah(uh) My/ mum (Hindi: mera) Young/ Yuv so /so (so is same in both english and hindi/sanskrit e.g. Jo karna hai so karo) Man/ Manav/Manushya Create/ Kriya/Crea (In englishe we add 'ate' to whatever we want to convert into noun-verb, like elongate, deviate etc) English has many vocubalary based words derived from languages like Latin/Greek, but the fact remains that the Core Words (the words learnt when you begin to grow) are from Sanskrit. Some vocubalary based words: Dexterity -Dakshta Progress -Pragati Existence- Astitva Exist -Asti Punch- Paanch/Punch (Punch is same in English and Sanskrit meaning 5) juggernaut- JagannAth (Hindi), literally, lord of the world (right)- Massive inexorable force, or an object that crushes whatever is in its path. Grammar based similarities: I read many, but can't remember a lot except the suffix 'ic'. It is absolutely same in Hindi, Sanskrit and English. In english we say Sporadic, Fantastic, Idiotic etc etc... Similarly in Sanskrit we say Prodyougic, Kaalpanic, Aarthic etc etc One word that emerges same from both the Languages (that I can remember) is Vedic. Its same in Sanskrit/Hindi and English. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.244035765688156.57105.182221931869540&type=1

The official Sanskrit name for India is Bharat. INDIA has been called Bharat even in Satya yuga ( Golden Age ) INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT India The name `India’ is derived from the River Indus, the valleys around which were the home of the early settlers. The Aryan worshippers referred to the river Indus as the Sindhu. The Persian invaders converted it into Hindu. The name `Hindustan’ combines Sindhu and Hindu and thus refers to the land of the Hindus. The number system was invented by India. Aryabhatta was the scientist who invented the digit zero. Sanskrit is considered as the mother of all higher languages. This is because it is the most precise, and therefore suitable language for computer software. ( a report in Forbes magazine, July 1987 ). Chess was invented in India. Algebra, Trigonometry and Calculus are studies which originated in India. The' place value system' and the 'decimal system' were developed in 100 BC in India. The first six Mogul Emperor's of India ruled in an unbroken succession from father to son for two hundred years, from 1526 to 1707. The World's First Granite Temple is the Brihadeswara temple at Tanjavur in Tamil Nadu. The shikhara is made from a single ' 80-tonne ' piece of granite. Also, this magnificient temple was built in just five years, (between 1004 AD and 1009 AD) during the reign of Rajaraja Chola India is.......the Largest democracy in the world, the 6th largest country in the world AND one of the most ancient and living civilizations (at least 10, 000 years old). The game of snakes & ladders was created by the 13th century poet saint Gyandev. It was originally called 'Mokshapat.' The ladders in the game represented virtues and the snakes indicated vices. The game was played with cowrie shells and dices. Later through time, the game underwent several modifications but the meaning is the same i.e good deeds take us to heaven and evil to a cycle of re-births. The world's highest cricket ground is in Chail, Himachal Pradesh. Built in 1893 after levelling a hilltop, this cricket pitch is 2444 meters above sea level. India has the most post offices in the world ! The largest employer in the world is the Indian railway system, employing over a million people !. The World's first university was established in Takshila in 700 BC. More than 10,500 students from all over the world studied more than 60 subjects. The University of Nalanda built in the 4th century was one of the greatest achievements of ancient India in the field of education. Ayurveda is the earliest school of medicine known to mankind. The father of medicine, Charaka, consolidated Ayurveda 2500 years ago. Although modern images & descriptions of India often show poverty, India was one of the richest countries till the time of British in the early 17th Century. Christopher Columbus was attracted by India's wealth and was looking for route to India when he discovered America by mistake. The art of Navigation & Navigating was born in the river Sindh 6000 over years ago. The very word 'Navigation' is derived from the Sanskrit word NAVGATIH. The word navy is also derived from the Sanskrit word 'Nou'. Bhaskaracharya rightly calculated the time taken by the earth to orbit the sun hundreds of years before the astronomer Smart. His calculations was - Time taken by earth to orbit the sun: ( 5th century ) 365.258756484 days. The value of "pi" was first calculated by the Indian Mathematician Budhayana, and he explained the concept of what is known as the Pythagorean Theorem. He discovered this in the 6th century, which was long before the European mathematicians. Algebra, trigonometry and calculus also orignated from India. Quadratic equations were used by Sridharacharya in the 11th century. The largest numbers the Greeks and the Romans used were 106 whereas Hindus used numbers as big as 10*53 ( i.e 10 to the power of 53 ) with specific names as early as 5000 B.C. during the Vedic period. Even today, the largest used number is Tera: 10*12( 10 to the power of 12 ). Until 1896, India was the only source for diamonds to the world. ( Source . Gemological Institute of America ) The Baily Bridge is the highest bridge in the world. It is located in the Ladakh valley between the Dras and Suru rivers in the Himalayan mountains. It was built by the Indian Army in August 1982. Sushruta is regarded as the father of surgery. Over 2600 years ago Sushrata & his team conducted complicated surgeries like cataract, artificial limbs, cesareans, fractures, urinary stones and also plastic surgery and brain surgeries. Usage of anesthesia was well known in ancient India medicine. Detailed knowledge of anatomy, embryology, digestion, metabolism, physiology, etiology, genetics and immunity is also found in many ancient Indian texts. Did you know ? India also celebrates the birthday of Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, former President and Vice-President and great statesman, as "Teachers' Day". Born on September 5, 1888, at Tiruttani, 40 miles to the north-east of Madras, Radhakrishnan grew to become the most famous Indian teacher and philosopher of all times. In his honour, this day is celebrated as Teacher's Day. He was also the Vice-President of India from 1952-1962. He held the office of the Chancellor, University of Delhi, before taking over as the President of India in May 1962. "What makes a nation, is the past, what justifies one nation against others is the past", says the noted historian Eric Hobsbawm. Hence, when talking of a nation, it becomes very imperative that the past should also be talked about. And the past of India is as fascinating and interesting as it is momentous. Proud to be Indian ! Jai Hind !

Russian devotee wants Ayyappa temple on home Petukhova alias Induchoodan from St. Petersburg wants to construct a temple devoted to Lord Ayyappa on his home ground. Petukhova, who became a Hindu and changed his name to Induchoodan (meaning Lord Siva), has been learning Hindu ideology, the Vedas, tantra vidya, kalari payattu and ayurveda for the last 20 years. He also practices ayurveda in St. Petersburg. Climbing the holy steps for the seventh time, Induchoodan told Deccan Chronicle, “Life is transformed to another level after each climb. Here they are all are swamis, no differences in dress or mind. This has to be followed everywhere.” “My son Eliya also accompanied me to Sabarimala this time. I took him along with me only after he attained perfection in vrutha and other ritual practices to be followed. The team tied their Irumudi in Pachalam, near Ernakulam." "The team usually trekked via the forest route but we came through Pamba this time because we were only four of us and the forest route is filled with pilgrims," Petukhova added. Evegny alias Vivek a freelance system analyst who is a frequent visitor to the Vedic Academy at Idukki has come to have Ayyappa darshan for the second time. “We have observed 41 days of strict vrutha. We walk barefoot wherever we go,” said Vivek. Yanina who changed her name to Devayani, is a retired engineer from Moscow. This 70-year-old managed to climb the hill though her legs were covered with bandages. She said that the visit gave her an experience with a difference.

|| Tantra and its Misconceptions: Reclaiming the Essence from the Illusions || :: The Allure of Tantra :: Perhaps nothing is more exotic, dramatic and sensational in India’s Yoga traditions than is the practice of Tantra. No other approach to Yoga has gained such a fascination for the modern mind and its seeking of the bizarre, the entertaining and the enigmatic. Tantra appears to offer both spiritual and worldly success to a superlative degree. It covers not only internal yogic experiences of chakras, lokas and deities, but also has many important healing practices for body and mind. Most notably, it offers special means of heightening sexual pleasure, making money, gaining recognition and defeating one’s enemies – with Tantric methods available for achieving all human desires. There is in Tantra something for everyone, especially those who may be put off by ascetic or renunciate approaches to the spiritual life such as seem to dominate most of the rest of the Yoga tradition. Yet behind this allure of Tantra are very deep and profound teachings, including some of the most vibrant currents and detailed practices in the Yoga tradition of the last thousand years or more. Though Tantra has much to offer everyone, we must learn to be discriminating as to what is real versus what is superficial Tantra or one can easily fall into its distortions, which are many and much more visible. :: Tantra and Wish-Fulfillment :: Even in India, Tantrics are often portrayed as great magicians with special powers to overcome difficulties and fulfill our desires, using gems, mantras, yantras and pujas to get the Gods on our side and remove negative forces and bad karmas that get in the way of our happiness. Such Tantrics may use well-defined systems of knowledge, particularly Vedic astrology but also Yoga and Ayurveda and be quite adept in their practices. But often their claim is more personal, relative to their own special powers or siddhis and connections with deities, gurus or even ghosts that can work for us in mysterious ways that circumvent any outer limitations we may be facing. Some Tantric gurus are considered to be so powerful that their touch or glance alone can grant whatever we wish. They offer us quick and miraculous means to accomplish what our own efforts, karma and destiny appear to deny us. Naturally, this Tantric guru image can be easily exploited. Such gurus can charge a lot for or demand our personal loyalty and devotion in various ways. Many Indian politicians have routinely employed such Tantrics, hoping to use their powers to win elections and defeat their enemies. This magical form of Tantra makes for entertaining stories and good novels, giving it an additional glamour and grounds for exaggeration. Even genuine gurus may be looked upon with such a vision as being able to grant our desires, though they may not project any magical Tantric image themselves, so much is the human wish for Divine intervention to make our lives better and to have them conform more with what we would like them to be. This fascination with Tantra is nothing new in human cultures. Tantra is another version of the same old attraction to magic, the occult and ritual that we find to some degree in all cultures and was very prominent in the ancient world everywhere. Ancient Vedic rituals, much like modern Tantric rituals, can similarly be employed for all the goals of human life from kama or enjoyment, to victory in battle, to moksha or liberation. Looking to God – whether in the formless sense, or in the form of various Gods and Goddesses, or saints and gurus – to fulfill our human desires is one of the first and most common ways of human religious seeking. The undeveloped human ego will naturally first approach God with its own needs, rather than for any real seeking of knowledge or devotion. Tantra provides one of the most elaborate ways of doing this and recognizes its value as a first step in getting people onto the spiritual path. Chanting mantras in order to increase our prosperity or find a good partner or any other such personal goal is part of that approach. There is nothing wrong with such practices, but they don’t represent the higher aspects of Tantra or Yoga. :: Kundalini and the Chakras :: Other aspects of Tantra have come to the West and can be found in modern India as well, but not without distortions either. The chakras are a common New Age topic, though these are often portrayed quite differently than in classical Yoga. The chakras, which are originally energy centers in the subtle body, are often reduced to a physical formula. They are not looked upon so much as centers of spiritual experience but as places of physical and emotional healing. Such chakra healing is common in many New Age approaches, including various forms of massage, body work, energy work and pranic healing. While these practices may have their health benefits, they do not unfold the deeper aspects of chakra energy in Yoga practice, which require intense sadhana, mantra, pranayama and meditation. Meanwhile, Kundalini is generally reduced to some form of sexual energy, leading to strange emotional states and experiences. Or it is looked upon as some mere natural force to be used in a technological way. Its true nature as the power of consciousness is often overlooked. This combination of New Age fantasies from the West and an innate Indian need for the magical Yogi has created much room for illusion and distortion, if not manipulation and deception. It causes us to miss the fact that Tantra in the broader sense is a deep, profound, highly spiritual and very aesthetic way of understanding the conscious universe in which we live. Real Tantra often gets buried under these glittering allures and exaggerated claims. :: Broader Aspects of Tantra :: Apart from these distortions, we must recognize that Tantra is a complex tradition, with many sides and facets going beyond and even contrary to these popular fantasies. Tantra is interwoven with the spiritual teachings of India and beyond, going back far into ancient history. The popular understanding of Tantra represents only a small part of a vast system of knowledge. We could compare the state of Tantra with that of Yoga, with which it is related. Like Tantra, the physical side of Yoga is emphasized - the practice of yogic postures or asanas - even though these represent a small part of classical Yoga, whose main concern is meditation. We live in a materialistic and media age in which spiritual traditions are recast or scaled down into a physical and sensationalistic model. This may popularize but it easily diminishes and distorts. Such a sensate image of Tantra may cause some people to want to reject anything Tantric altogether. Certain spiritual groups East and West like to avoid Tantra for this reason. This is a mistake of another kind because it causes them to overlook the positive aspects of Tantra, its wealth of knowledge and practices about all the subtle aspects of Yoga, the worship of deities and how to harmonize actions in the human realm with the Divine worlds above. The real question then is how to separate the deeper and higher aspects of Tantra from the outer and superficial views. Tantra is a precise system of knowledge that provides specific results and much inner transformation if employed correctly. The application of mantras, rituals, pranayama and meditation in Tantric teachings is probably the most elaborate and complete in the entire Yoga tradition. Tantra also shows us how to employ such systems as Vedic astrology, Vastu and Ayurveda for deeper levels of protection and healing, as well as to promote a higher awareness. :: Tantra, Mantra and Yantra :: It is in Tantra that we find the most detailed explication of the power of mantra, with every syllable of the Sanskrit alphabet precisely defined. It is the bija mantras of Tantra, the Shakti mantras like Hrim and Shrim, which are the most powerful of all mantras. Tantra similarly provides the greatest explanation of the use of yantras or geometrical meditation devices that are important tools of concentration and meditation. For example, the worship of Sri Chakra and Sri Yantra, probably the most important and detailed of all the Yoga teachings, is the most important Tantric teaching. The entire universe and the subtle body are present in the Sri Chakra. Its worship integrates the individual with all existence. Tantra is a good tool for helping people of all traditions reclaim the worship of the Goddess and restore appropriate forms for her worship. As Christianity developed it rejected and condemned the common pagan worship of the Goddess that had long existed in the West. Western Tantra has added many other forms of Goddess worship in Pagan traditions from the Celts to the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians and Babylonians. Yet in these traditions forms of worship, both external and internal, have largely been lost. Hindu Tantra helps restore these methods of worship through its understanding of ritual, meditation and iconography. Tantra offers such a wealth of images as the Dasha Mahavidya or Ten Wisdom Forms of the Goddess, and the many forms of Kali and Durga. Tantra provides the most detailed information on the visualization of such deities, their forms, ornaments and weapons and how to use them. Tantra contains an important tradition of sacred art, with a deep understanding of symbolism and precise rules of depiction. Tantra preserves the great festivals of the Goddess like Navaratri and Durga Puja. Tantric sacred sites from Kamakhya in Assam to Kamakshi in Tamil Nadu preserve not only a tradition of Goddess worship but a living connection with the Goddess in nature. :: Historical Impact of Tantra :: Tantra is perhaps the main current in Indian spirituality of the last thousand years or more and helps us understand its entire movement. Most of modern Hinduism and even much of Buddhism and Jainism is Tantric. There is a strong Tantric element to the Sikh Dharma, if one looks deeply. Tibetan Buddhism is largely a Tantric form, taken up from Indian Tantrics in Bengal and Bihar. Such a Buddhism of mantras, mandalas, deities, yoga and meditation is much closer to Hindu Tantric and Vedic disciplines than it is to the older Buddhism of Sri Lanka and Thailand. Traditional Tantra has a strong ascetic and monastic form, though it has its householder tradition as well. Special Tantric worship of different forms of the Goddess go on in the major Shankaracharya Maths in India, using powerful mantras, yantras and rituals. Shankara himself was not only the most famous Advaitic teacher but also one of the most important Tantric teachers. His great poem to the Goddess, Saundarya Lahiri, remains perhaps the most important Tantric text that is used for Sri Chakra worship. South Indian Agamic temple worship is Tantric in this broader sense. The entire Shakta tradition or worship of the Goddess in India is Tantric. Most of Shaivism is Tantric. Yet even Tantric elements are there in Vaishnava and other traditions. Tantric teachings have been important for most of the main gurus of modern India since Ramakrishna and Vivekananda, including Aurobindo, Shivananda, Anandamayi Ma and many others. Ganapati Muni, the chief disciple of Ramana Maharshi, was another great Tantric Yogi. Yet this tradition is even older. The main Yoga gurus over the past thousand years or more have been mainly Nath Yogis, who are Tantric Shaivites, starting with Goraknath and Matsyendra Nath. Such Nath Yogis were the founders of the Hatha Yoga tradition as well as many important approaches to Tantra. Nath Yogis were honored by Shankara, Jnanadeva, Abhinavagupta, and many other great Hindu teachers of the medieval period. Even the teachings of modern Yoga guru, Krishnamacharya, are attributed to tradition stated by one Natha Muni. This means that without understanding real Tantra it is hard to understand Yoga. In fact, the best way to understand real Tantra is as an expanded form of Raja Yoga. Like the Yoga Sutras and in more detail Tantra teaches asana, pranayama, pratyahara, dharana, dhyana and samadhi, but providing many more specific forms and techniques. It gives the details on mantras and methods that are only alluded to in the Sutras. We can also explain real Tantra as a yogic approach to science and art. In this regard, there is a cross over between Vedic and Tantric sciences in such disciplines as Ayurveda, Jyotish and Vastu. Tantra is the basis of the Rasa Shastra or alchemical side of Ayurveda and much of Ayurveda’s psychological treatments. Tantra uses the rules of Jyotish for determining favorable times for ritual, pujas and so on. Tantric architecture and temple building develops from Vastu. In fact, it is in Tantra, contrary to modern academicians who fail to see the obvious connection, that we find the most detailed applications of Vedic teachings of ritual, mantra, yajna, puja and meditation. So whether we like it or not, Tantra is and will remain a dominant force not only in Indian but in world spirituality. While we can recognize the place of popular and New Age forms of Tantra as a point of entry into these teachings, it is important to recognize the broader and deeper scope of real Tantra which is more than these and may be quite different from them. Tantra is the practical and energetic application of all the yogic wisdom of life, time, space and energy. If you approach it with the right intention, it can offer you much more than the fulfillment of your desires, it can help you gain the supreme goal of life of realization of the entire universe within your own awareness! by Pandit Vamadeva

Keep walking The Organs of your body have their sensory touches at the bottom of your foot, if you massage these points you will find relief from aches and pains as you can see the heart is on the left foot. Typically they are shown as points and arrows to show which organ it connects to. It is indeed correct since the nerves connected to these organs terminate here. God created our body so well that he thought of even this. He made us walk so that we will always be pressing these pressure points and thus keeping these organs activated at all times.

अधिकांश हिंदू घरों में तुलसी का पौधा अवश्य ही होता है। तुलसी घर के आंगन में लगाने की प्रथा हजारों साल पुरानी है। तुलसी को दैवी का रूप माना जाता है। साथ ही मान्यता है कि तुलसी का पौधा घर में होने से घर वालों को बुरी नजर प्रभावित नहीं कर पाती और अन्य बुराइयां भी घर और घरवालों से दूर ही रहती है। तुलसी का पौधा होने से घर का वातावरण पूरी तरह पवित्र और कीटाणुओं से मुक्त रहता है। कभी-कभी किसी कारण से यह पौध सूख भी जाता है ऐसे में इसे घर में नहीं रखना चाहिए बल्कि इसे किसी पवित्र नदी में प्रवाहित करके दूसरा तुलसी का पौधा लगा लेना चाहिए। सुखा हुआ तुलसी का पौधा घर में रखना कई परिस्थितियों में अशुभ माना जाता है। इससे विपरित परिणाम भी प्राप्त हो सकते हैं। घर की बरकत पर बुरा असर पड़ सकता है। इसी वजह से घर में हमेशा पूरी तरह स्वस्थ तुलसी का पौधा ही लगाया जाना चाहिए। तुलसी का धार्मिक महत्व तो है ही लेकिन विज्ञान के दृष्टिकोण से तुलसी एक औषधि है। आयुर्वेद में तुलसी को संजीवनी बुटि के समान माना जाता है। तुलसी में कई ऐसे गुण होते हैं जो बड़ी-बड़ी जटिल बीमारियों को दूर करने और उनकी रोकथाम करने में काम आते हैं...

========हमारी हर परंपरा में वैज्ञानिकता का दर्शन होता हैं अज्ञानता का नहीं========== भारत के पहले काले अंग्रेज़ जवाहरुद्दीन के समय मे विज्ञान के संबंध में यह धारणा व्याप्त कर ली गई थी की पश्चिम का विज्ञान ही श्रेष्ठ है जिन्हे भारत से हटाने के लिए हमें इतनी मेहनत करनी पड़ी और खून बहाना पड़ा या इसलिए ‘पश्चिम जो कहे वही सही’ यह हीन भाव सर्वसाधारण मे बैठा दिया गया था, हमने उनके चिकित्सा ज्ञान (ऐलोपैथी) को राष्ट्र चिकित्सा पद्धति बनाया, ऐलोपैथी को अपने स्वास्थ्य विज्ञान (आयुर्वेद) के आधार पर परखने की बजाय उल्टा काम किया । भारतीय परम्पराओं को पश्चिम के जड़ विज्ञान से नहीं समझा जा सकता था, इसलिए उन्हें दक़ियानूसी, कालबाह्य, गँवारू आदि विशेषणों से मंडित कर त्याग दिया, ‘छोड़ो कल की बाते कल की बात पुरानी’जैसे गाने लोकप्रिय होने लगे और लोगो ने इसे अपना आदर्श मूल्य मान लिया । ऐसे लोग कहते है की जो परम्पराएँ वर्षों से चली आ रही है वे बिना वैज्ञानिक आधार के है, यह सोच बहुत ही संकीर्ण हैं इस सोच ने हमारी वह दृष्ठि छिन ली जो हमें हमारी परम्पराओं में छिपी वैज्ञानिकता का दर्शन कराती थी । आइये उनमे से कुछ वैज्ञानिक आधार की परम्पराओं का वर्णन कराते है खीर खाओ मलेरिया भगाओ: हम सब जानते है की मच्छर काटने से मलेरिया होता है वर्ष मे कम से कम 700-800 बार तो मच्छर काटते ही होंगे अर्थात 70 वर्ष की आयु तक पहुंचते-पहुंचते लाख बार मच्छर काट लेते होंगे । लेकिन अधिकांश लोगो को जीवनभर में एक दो बार ही मलेरिया होता है सारांश यह है की मच्छर के काटने से मलेरिया होता है यह 1% ही सही है| लेकिन यहाँ ऐसे विज्ञापनो की कमी नहीं है जो कहते है की एक भी मच्छर ‘डेंजरस’ है, हिट लाओगे तो एक भी मच्छर नहीं बचेगा अब ऐसे विज्ञापनो के झांसे मे आकर के करोड़ो लोग इस मच्छर बाजार मे अप्रत्यक्ष रूप से शामिल हो जाते है । सभी जानते है बैक्टीरिया बिना उपयुक्त वातावरन के नहीं पनप सकते जैसे दूध मे दही डालने मात्र से दही नहीं बनाता, दूध हल्का गरम होना चाहिए, उसे ढककर गरम वातावरण मे रखना होता है । बार बार हिलाने से भी दही नहीं जमता ऐसे ही मलेरिया के बैक्टीरिया को जब पिट का वातावरन मिलता है तभी वह 4 दिन में पूरे शरीर में फैलता है नहीं तो थोड़े समय में खत्म हो जाता है सारे मच्छरमार प्रयासो के बाद भी मच्छर और रोगवाहक सूक्ष्म किट नहीं काटेंगे यह हमारे हाथ में नहीं लेकिन पित्त को नियंत्रित रखना हमारे हाथ में तो है ? अब हमारी परम्पराओं का चमत्कार देखिये जिन्हे अल्पज्ञानी, दक़ियानूसी, और पिछड़ेपन की सोच करके, षड्यंत्र फैलाया जाता था । वर्षा ऋतु के बाद शरद ऋतु आती है आकाश में बादल धूल न होने से कडक धूप पड़ती है जिससे शरीर में पित्त कुपित होता है इसी समय गड्ढो मे जमा पानी के कारण बहुत बड़ी मात्र मे मच्छर पैदा होते है इससे मलेरिया होने का खतरा सबसे अधिक होता है । खीर खाने से पित्त का शमन होता है । शरद में ही पितृ पक्ष (श्राद्ध) आता है पितरों का मुख्य भोजन है खीर । इस दौरान 5-7 बार खीर खाना हो जाता है इसके बाद शरद पुर्णिमा को रातभर चाँदनी के नीचे चाँदी के पात्र में राखी खीर सुबह खाई जाती है (चाँदी का पात्र न हो तो चाँदी का चम्मच खीर मे डाल दे , लेकिन बर्तन मिट्टी या पीतल का हो, क्योंकि स्टील जहर और एल्यूमिनियम, प्लास्टिक, चीनी मिट्टी महा-जहर है) यह खीर विशेष ठंडक पहुंचाती है । गाय के दूध की हो तो अतिउत्तम, विशेष गुणकारी (आयुर्वेद मे घी से अर्थात गौ घी और दूध गौ का) इससे मलेरिया होने की संभावना नहीं के बराबर हो जाती है ध्यान रहे : इस ऋतु में बनाई खीर में केसर और मेंवों का प्रयोग न करे । मलेरिया होने के बाद कड़वी दवाइयाँ खाकर, हजारों रूपए खर्चकर, जोखिम उठाकर ठीक होने में अधिक वैज्ञानिकता हैं या स्वादिष्ट व पौष्ठिक खीर खाकर मलेरिया होने ही न देने में अधिक वैज्ञानिकता ? आज भयंकर षड्यंत्र के तहत आयुर्वेद की शिक्षा नहीं दी जा रही है बड़ी धूर्तता के साथ स्कूलो में यह धारणा बैठा दी गई है की आयुर्वेद मात्र जड़ी बूटी चिकित्साशास्त्र है जबकि जड़ी बूटी तो मात्र आयुर्वेद का 10% ही है 90% आयुर्वेद तो हमारी समृद्ध परम्पराओं में है, जो वैज्ञानिक आधार सहित थी । अब इस लेख से कुछ प्रश्न पैदा होते है ! क्या सफाई कर्मी संस्थाए गड्ढो को इसलिए नहीं भरते ताकि कंपनियाँ लोगो को मलेरिया के डर के सहारे लूटे ? अभी तक किसी वैज्ञानिक ने मच्छर मरने का यंत्र क्यों नहीं बनाया ? इतनी भी योग्यता हमारे वैज्ञानिको मे नहीं है जिनके पुरखे विमानन शास्त्र का ज्ञान दुनिया को दें ? मच्छर मारक अगरबत्ती, क्रीम, टिकिया, दृव्य का बाजार लगभग 3.5 लाख करोड का है क्यूँ है इतना ? पकोड़ी खाओ वाइरल भगाओ: घनघोर घटा और धुआंधार वर्षा होते ही लगभग पूरे भारत में घर घर में कढ़ाई चढ़ जाती है और गरमा गरम पकोड़ियाँ उतरने लगती है । यह परंपरा वर्षो से चली आ रही है और करोड़ो लोगो द्वारा अपनाई गई है तो इसके पीछे केवल स्वाद यही एक कारण नहीं है इसके पीछे बहुत बड़ा विज्ञान हैऐसी वर्षा के समय मौसम एकदम बादल जाता है तापमान 15-20 डिग्री गिर जाता है हवा में एकदम नमी आ जाती है । जितना बड़ा परिवर्तन उतना बड़ा उपाय करना चाहिए । ठंड से वात विकृत होता है यह सर्वविदित है, इसलिए जैसे ही पकौड़ियाँ खाते है वात तुरंत नियंत्रित हो जाता है लेकिन गर्मी से वात कुछ देर ही नियंत्रित होता है, चिकनाई लंबे समय तक वात से रक्षा करती है और वात के असंतुलन से होने वाले रोगों से बचाव हो जाता है वाइरस कब बढ़ते है ? जब अनुकूल वातावरण मिलता है जो वाइरस वर्षा मे फेलते है वे गर्मी मे तो नहीं फेलते ? अनुकूल वातावरण नहीं मिलने पर वे बढ़ते नहीं पूरी प्रकृति का नियंत्रण तो हमारे हाथ मे नहीं लेकिन हम अपने शरीर की प्रकृति नियंत्रित कर सकते है तो जब भी वर्षा हो तेल मे तलकर जमकर पकौड़ियाँ खाये । सावधानी: * पकौड़ी खाने के बाद गरमागरम कढ़ी पी ले । पकौड़ी के ऊपर सादा पानी वायरल को आमंत्रित करेगा इसलिए अच्छा है की पकौड़ी खाने से पहले जमकर पानी पिये ताकि पकौड़ी खाने के 2 घंटे बाद तक पानी नहीं पीना पड़े * पकौड़ियों मे प्याज का उपयोग न करें, क्योंकि प्याज वात को विकृत करता है और हमें वात को शांत करने के लिए पकौड़ी खानी है * पकौड़ी रिफाइंड तेल में नहीं बनाए, रिफाइंड तेल मे चिकनाई नहीं होती, और हमें चिकनाई की आवश्यकता है इसलिए फिल्टर्ड तेल का उपयोग करें, घानी का तेल मिले तो अति उत्तम (रिफाइंड तेल सिर्फ नाम मात्र का तेल होता है बिना गुण – सुगंध वाला) साभार-स्वदेशी भारत

TULSI’ - connotes ‘the incomparable one.’
‘TULSI’ - connotes ‘the incomparable one.’ It is an important symbol in the Hindu religious tradition. The botanical name being ‘Ocimum sanctum’ belongs to the family of Labiatae. The classical name, basilicum, from which "basil" is derived, means "royal or princely." Hindus commonly know basil as Tulasi and Surasah in Sanskrit, and Tulsi in Hindi. Other commonly used names are Haripriya, dear to Vishnu, and Bhutagni, destroyer of demons. The Tamil name for this plant is ‘thulasi’ and in English it is known as ‘Holy Basil.’ Tulsi grows wild in the tropics and warm regions. Dark or Shyama tulsi and light or Rama tulsi are the two main varieties of basil, the former possessing greater medicinal value. Of the many varieties, the Krishna or Shyama tulsi is commonly used for worship. Basil and religion have a rich and long history together. The Hindus have been growing and using basil in temples for around 3000 years. The Rig Veda, probably written in 1500 BC, mentions the holy basil. The Puranas celebrate it for its holiness. Highly regarded in Ayurvedic's system of medicine, it is noted in medical texts like Charaka Samhita, which was written somewhere between 200 BC and 200 AD. Basil, in South Asia, is tied to folklore and myth. It is said to represent Vishnupriya or Beloved of Vishnu, the embodiment of the goddess Lakshmi. It has been cultivated from ancient times throughout India. It is linked closely with the spiritual world. No Hindu household is without it and a ‘tulasi madam’ , a specially built structure, which has images of deities installed on all four sides, and an alcove for a small earthen oil lamp. Often some households can even have up to a dozen tulsi plants on the verandah or in the garden forming a "tulsi-van" or "tulsivrindavan" - a miniature basil forest. The Tulsi is the most sacred of all plants. It is associated with many Hindu Gods and Goddesses. It is a very important symbol in Hindu religious traditions. In Sanskrit, tulanaa naasti athaiva tulasi - that which is incomparable (in its qualities) is the tulasi. In fact it is known to be the only thing used in worship, which, once used, can be washed and reused in pooja - as it is regarded so self-purifying. It is worshiped in the morning and evening. It grows wild in the tropics. The two main varieties of basil are, Shyama or dark tulsi, and Rama or light tulsi. The Krishna or Shyama tulsi is the type more commonly used in worship, and is thought to hold more medicinal value. Tulsi can be found today growing in great quantities around Hindu temples. It comes in both green and red varieties and appears more clove like than the ordinary basil that has long been used in cooking. Today, Holy Basil is used to treat a wide variety of medical conditions. Some of these include fevers, colds, sore throats, kidney stones, insect bites, and headaches. Tulsi is also considered to be very useful in the reducing of stress related disorders. Tusli, along with all other species of basil, possesses remarkable physical and spiritually healing properties. Aside from its religious merits, Tulsi has been praised in Indian scriptures and lore since the time of the early Vedas as an herb that cures blood and skin disease and arthritis, a preventative for mosquito and insect bites, and a purifier of polluted air. Tulsi is used as medicinal teas and poultices. Tulsi’s widespread contemporary use in India as an aid to internal and external organs suggests these traditions are based upon practical efficacy. “one finds descriptions of basil’s health benefits in any of the books on herbs and ayurveda readily available today. Tulsi is also extensively used to maintain ritual purity, to purity if polluted and to ward off evil. A leaf if kept in the mouth of the dying to insure passage to heavenly realms. During an eclipse, leaves are ingested and also placed in cooked food and stored water to ward off psychic pollution. Funeral pyres often contain tulsi wood to protect the spirit of the dead—as Bhutagni, destroyer of demons, tulsi leaves and sprigs are hung in the entryways of homes to keep away troublesome spirits, and the mere presence of the Tulsi shrine is said to keep the entire home pure, peaceful and harmonious. DIVINITY IN TULSI: Basil or tulsi became a symbol of love, eternal life, purification, and protection in India. It is regarded not merely as a mere utilitarian God-send, as most sacred plant are viewed to be, but as an incarnation of Goddess herself. Thus when one bows before tulsi, one bows to the goddess herself. Of course, denominations differ in their approach. Generally worshippers of Vishnu will envision Tulsi as Lakshi or Vrinda; devotees of Rama view Tulsi as Sita; while Krishna bhaktas revere Her as Vrinda, Radha or Rkumani. TULASI SYMBOLISES: 1) Kalyani – Normally poisonous snakes and mosquitos do not come close to it due to some smell that it emits, That explains why it is a must in every house. The leaves as well roots are a cure for several diseases like malaria, cold, fever. The wood of this plant is used for Mala, ie a rosary for worhip of Lord Vishnu and when worn in the neck it prevents diseases of the throat. 2) Visnu Priye – Tulsi has been described as the beloved of Lord Visgnu since he is the creator and Tulsi helps the health of human beings and animals, prevent soil erosion. 3) @[516819943:2048:Mo Moshiri]ksa – prade – By keeping the body healthy, it keeps the mind healthy and free of worries enabling us to concentrate on worship of the Ultimate Reality in comfort. PURANAS: A plethora of Puranic Legends and village stories relate how Tulsi came to grow and be worshiped on Earth. The classic Hindu myth, Samudramathana, the “Churning of the Cosmic Ocean,” explains that Vishnu spawned Tulsi from the turbulent seas as a vital aid for all mankind. More common are legends that describe how the Goddess Herself came to reside on Earth as Tulsi. A complex legend in Orissa views the plant as the fourth incarnation in the Goddess who appeared as Tulsi at the beginning of our present age, the Kali yuga. The tale continues with intrigue and deception among the Gods, typical of the Puranic Stories, culminating in Vishnu’s transforming the Goddess Tulsi into a basil bush to be worshiped morning and evening by men and women in every household in the world. Impressed by her devotion and adherence to righteousness, Tulasi the wife of a celestial being was blessed by Lord Krishna that she would be worshipped by all, offerings would be incomplete without the offering of Tulasi. Those who wish a righteous life also worship Tulasi. She also symbolises Goddess Lakshmi, the consort of Lord Vishnu. Tulasi is married to the Lord in a ceremony flushed with pomp and ceremony. This is because according to another legend, the Lord blessed her to be His consort. Satyabhama once weighed Lord Krishna against all her legendary wealth. The scales did not balance till Rukmini placed a single tulasi leaf along with the wealth on the scale with devotion. Thus the tulasi played the vital role of demonstrating to the world that even a small object offered with devotion means more to the Lord than all the wealth in the world. “I bow down to the tulasi, at whose base are all the holy places, at whose top reside all the deities and in whose middle are all the Vedas”. Yanmule sarvatirhaani Yannagre sarvadevataa Yanmadhye sarvavedaascha Tulasi taam namaamyaham BRAHMA PURANA "dhatri phalani tulasi hy antakale bhaved yadi mukhe caiva sirasya ange patakam nasti tasya vai" Meaning: "If one has amalaki fruits or Tulasi leaves in one's mouth or on one's head or body when one dies, one is guaranteed not to suffer in hell." SKANDAPURANA "Every home with a Tulasi plant is a place of pilgrimage, and no diseases, messengers of Yama, the God of Death, can enter it." Glories of the thulasi is seen in this mantra: SHRI TULASI PRADAKSINA MANTRA yani kani ca papani brahma-hatyadikani catani tani pranasyanti pradaksinah pade pade Meaning: "By the circumambulation of Srimati Tulasi Devi all the sins that one may have committed are destroyed at every step, even the sin of killing a brahmana." SHRI TULASI PRANAMA vrndayai tulasi-devyai priyayai kesavasya ca visnu-bhakti-prade devi satyavatyai namo namah Meaning: "I offer my repeated obeisances unto Vrnda, Srimati Tulasi Devi, who is very dear to Lord Kesava. O goddess, you bestow devotional service to Lord Krishna and possess the highest truth." (unedited draft) Om

Namah Shivay..
|| The Mantric Approach of the Vedas || :: The Vedas as Mantra Yoga :: The Vedas are mantric teachings. They consist of various mantric chants or hymns cognized by different seers or Rishis from the Cosmic Mind. They set forth Dharma or natural law, which is mantra in manifestation. As such the Vedas are impersonal and eternal, just as cosmic law cannot vary. This same mantric knowledge gives rise to different sciences (vidyas) according to the angle of vision with which we approach it. Ayurveda, Vedic Astrology, Yoga, and Vedanta all arise from it and represent different ways of looking through it. The Vedic language is based upon an earlier more primordial language of seed (bija) mantras. These are single syllable sounds or roots like OM that have multiple meanings and indications depending upon their intonation and the intention with which they are used. Out of the bija or root language arises the language of the Vedic texts, which is already differentiated, though not fully, into nouns and verbs. These bijas are explained more in Tantra, which in its true sense (apart from current popular distortions) is also a science of the Divine Word. To introduce the reader to the Vedic mantric approach we will introduce a few important bija mantras and then the main Vedic chant, the Gayatri mantra, of twenty four syllables. This will also help the reader understand the vision behind the American Institute of Vedic Studies, why it takes the name Vedic studies, and why it combines various Vedic disciplines. It is all a manifestation of the mantra. It is that mantric knowledge that we are directing our students toward, not to any mere book learning, nor reliance on the word of another. That inner mantra of the heart which comprehends all is the goal of our work. Five Main Bija Mantras OM OM is the most important of all mantras. All mantras generally begin and often also end with OM. However, there is much confusion about OM. OM is the mantra of assent. It means yes and affirms and energizes whatever we say after it. That is why all mantras begin with OM. OM is also the mantra of ascent and causes our energy to rise upward into the infinite. OM is expansive and increases the fire, air and ether elements, particularly ether. It also gives strength, protection and grace. It connects us with the guidance power of the inner Guru. The Four Great Goddess Mantras There are four great Goddess mantras that govern the prime forms of energy as magnetic force, electrical force, heat, and delight. This is a Tantric teaching that reflects the Vedic Word and the four main Vedic deities. HRIM HRIM (pronounced Hreem) is the prime mantra of the Great Goddess and ruler of the worlds and holds all her creative and healing powers. HRIM governs over the cosmic magnetic energy and the power of the soul and causal body. It awakens us at a soul or heart level, connecting us to Divine forces of love and attraction. HRIM is the mantra of the Divine Maya that destroys the worldly maya. It has a solar quality to it but more of a dawn-like effect. It is charming and alluring, yet purifying . Through it we can control the illusion power of our own minds. In Vedic terms HRIM is a mantra of the Sun, particularly in terms of illumination. It increases our aspiration and receptivity to Divine light, wisdom and truth. It opens the lotus of the heart to the inner Sun of consciousness. It is a mantra of the region of heaven or the consciousness space in which all the worlds exist. KRIM KRIM (pronounced Kreem) is the great mantra of Kali, the Goddess of energy and transformation. It governs over prana as lightning or electrical energy. KRIM grants all spiritual faculties and powers — from the arousing of kundalini to opening the third eye. It has a special power relative to the lower chakras, which it can both stimulate and transform. It helps awaken and purify the subtle body. As a mantra of work and transformation KRIM is the mantra of Kriya Yoga, the Yoga of practice. It is the main mantra of the Yoga Shakti. As it is a strong mantra it should be used with care. KRIM is a mantra of Indra, the supreme deity of the Vedas, the Divine as the cosmic lord and enlightenment force. KRIM is the thunderbolt or vajra that destroys the serpent of the ignorance and releases the light of absolute truth. It represents the force of the atmosphere (Atmic sphere) and carries the supreme life force. HUM HUM (pronounced Hoom) is a mantra of the inner fire or thermogenic force. It both calls the divine down into us and offers our soul upward to the Divine for transformation in the sacred fire of awareness. It is a Shiva mantra but also a mantra of Chandi, the fierce form of Kali. It is used to destroy negativity and creates great passion and vitality. As a powerful mantra it should also be used carefully. Yet it can be used in a more gentle manner to invoke divine grace and protection. Through it we can offer ourselves or our afflictions into the Divine for purification and transformation. HUM is a Vedic mantra of Agni or fire. It is the mantra used to make offerings into the sacred fire. It also is used to call or invoke the fire and to make it flame up more brilliantly. It represents the soul hidden the body, the Divine immanent in the world. It governs the earth and the material sphere in general. SHRIM SHRIM (pronounced Shreem) is a mantra of love, devotion and beauty, relating to Lakshmi, the Goddess of Beauty and divine grace. Yet SHRIM works at a deeper level than merely to give us the good things of life, including health. It takes us to the heart and gives faith and steadiness to our emotional nature. SHRIM allows us to surrender to, take refuge in, or be immersed in whatever we offer the mantra to. It is the mantra of beauty and delight and has a pleasing lunar quality. It also relates to the head and can be used to flood the senses with divine beauty and delight. It promotes health and aids in fertility and rejuvenation. In Vedic terms SHRIM is a Soma mantra. It gives love, joy, bliss, beauty and delight. It has the light of the Moon and governs the mind and the realm between the atmosphere and heaven. It purifies and integrates the various aspects of our nature and renders them into ambrosia. These four mantras can be used together with OM: OM HRIM KRIM HUM SHRIM! This brings about an integral development of body, mind and soul in harmony with the Divine or inner Self. The Gayatri Mantra, the Essence of the Vedas This great mantra consists of three parts. The first is the chants to the seven worlds. The second is the mantra proper of twenty-four syllables. The third is a summary of the mantra's energies. The following is a brief explanation of the mantra as presented in the Mahanarayana Upanishad. The Head of the Gayatri OM Bhuh!- the physical realm or earth, realm of being or food OM Bhuvah! - the vital plane or atmosphere, realm of becoming or breath OM Suvah! - the mental plane, space or heaven, realm of illumination OM Mahah! - the sphere of cosmic mind, realm of Dharma OM Janah! - the realm of creation or bliss OM Tapah! - the realm of consciousness-force OM Satyam! - the realm of absolute truth The Body of the Mantra OM Tat - That Savitur - Of Savitar, the solar Creator Varenyam - Supreme Bhargo - Effulgence Devasya - Of the God Dhimahi - We meditate Dhiyo - Intelligences, minds Yo - Who Nah - Our Prachodayat - May direct "We meditate upon the supreme effulgence of the Divine Solar Creator that he may direct our minds." The Tail of the Gayatri OM Apo - the Cosmic Waters Jyoti - the Cosmic Light Rasomritam - the Immortal Essence Brahma - the Absolute Bhur - the physical Bhuvas - the atmospheric Suvar - the realm of space OM - the four higher realms "OM, the waters, the light, the immortal essence, Brahman, earth, atmosphere, heaven, OM." The Gayatri mantra (Rig Veda III.62.10) is perhaps the greatest Vedic mantric chant. It was first cognized by the Rishi Vishwamitra, who himself is a form of the Sun that is the friend (Mitra) of all (Vishwa). Rishi Vishwamitra is the embodiment of tapas or ascetic force and his mantra carries that power of light, energy and transformation. Through it one can be born again (dwija) or twice born in truth, in the heavenly stream of Divine wisdom. The mantra is chanted at sunrise, noon and sunset. At dawn it is called Gayatri, the youthful form of the Goddess, consort of Lord Brahma, the creator. It is called Savitri, the mature form, at noon, the consort of Lord Shiva. It is called Sarasvati, the elderly form, at sunset, the consort of Lord Vishnu. The Supreme Self, Paramatman, or Savitar, is the conscious being within the cosmic sun or Light of lights. The mantra is his creative force, the Divine Word. Savitar is the master of all transformations and the director of all higher evolution. He is the Self of Brahman, the pure being of the Absolute. Harnessing the Power of the Inner Sun This mantra releases the supreme solar power, the power of the inner sun of Self-realization and cosmic creation. Those wishing to bring about a new creation or new dawn for humanity of this dark age, should chant this mantra. Those wishing to transcend this world of Samsara can also use the mantra as a stairway to the infinite. This mantra also grants intelligence, creative vision and healing powers. Used with the chants to the seven worlds it unfolds all the secrets of the universe outwardly and inwardly. The Gayatri mantra is central to Yoga, Vedanta, Ayurveda and Vedic astrology. For Yoga it sets in motion the Divine will toward transformation, stimulating the Kundalini force. For Vedanta it grants Self-knowledge, knowledge of the solar Self. For Ayurveda it gives the power of the cosmic prana that is born of the sun. For Jyotish it gives knowledge of the movements of the heavenly bodies ruled by the cosmic sun. NOTE: the exact pronunciation and intonation of the mantra requires personal instructions and a proper initiation and guidance of an able GuRU / Master. This mantra is not something to be merely toyed with but requires entering into the stream of transmission of Vedic knowledge.

आयुर्वेद की सलाह के बिना शल्यक्रिया कभी न करवायें डॉक्टरों के बारे में दो साधकों के कटु अनुभव यहाँ प्रस्तुत हैं- 'मेरी पत्नी गर्भवती थी। उसे उलटी, उबकाई एवं पेट में दर्द होने लगा तो डॉक्टर को दिखाया। डॉक्टर ने सोनोग्राफी करके हमें कहाः 'अभी तुरंत ऑपरेशन(शल्यक्रिया) करवाओ। गर्भ टयूब में है और टयूब फट जायेगी तो माँ और बच्चा, दोनों की जान खतरे में पड़ जायेगी।' 1. हम सूरत आश्रम में आये। 'साँई श्री लीलाशाहजी उपचार केन्द्र' में वैद्यराज जी के समक्ष सारी परिस्थिति बतायी। उन्होंने उपचार शुरु किया। केवल गैस एवं मल मूत्र के रुके रहने के कारण पेट में दर्द था। टबबाथ, दवा एवं अर्कपत्र-स्वेदन देते ही 10-15 मिनट में दर्द कम हो गया एवं दो-तीन घंटे में सब ठीक हो गया। दूसरे दिन सोनोग्राफी की रिपोर्ट देखकर वैद्यराज ने कहाः 'इस रिपोर्ट में तो गर्भ टयूब में है ऐसा कुछ लिखा ही नहीं है।' हमने बताया कि डॉक्टर साहब ने स्वयं ऐसा कहा था। आज भी मेरी पत्नी का स्वास्थ्य अच्छा है। शायद पैसों के लोभ में डॉक्टर ऑपरेशन करने की सलाह देते हों तो मानवता के इस व्यवसाय में कसाईपना घुस गया है, ऐसा कहना पड़ेगा।" देवेन्द्र कुमार शर्मा, घर नं 21, तुकाराम बिकाजी कदम मार्ग, भाटिया चौक, मुंबई-33 2. 'मेरी धर्मपत्नी गर्भवती थी उसके पेट में दर्द तथा मूत्र में रूकावट की तकलीफ थी। डॉक्टरों ने कहाः 'तुरंत ऑपरेशन करके मूत्रनली खोलकर देखनी पड़ेगी। ऑपरेशन के दौरान आगे जैसा दिखेगा वैसा निर्णय करके ऑपरेशन में आगे बढ़ना पड़ेगा।' हमने बात वैद्यराज से कही तो उन्होंने हमें तुरंत सूरत आश्रम बुला लिया। उन्होंने मूत्रकृच्छ्र रोग की चिकित्सा की तो दर्द ठीक हो गया। पेशाब भी खुलकर आने लगा। आज भी मेरी धर्मपत्नी ठीक है। अगर मैं डॉक्टरों के कहे अनुसार पत्नी का ऑपरेशन करवा देता तो वर्षों तक मनौतियाँ मानने के बाद जो गर्भ रहा था, उसको हम खो बैठते, भ्रूणहत्या का घोर पाप सिर पर लेते, स्वास्थ्य और धन की कितनी सारी हानि होती ! हमारे जैसे असंख्य देशवासी, कुछ नासमझ तो कुछ कसाई वृत्ति के लोगों से शोषित होने से बचें, यही सभी से प्रार्थना है।' नसवंतभाई वीरजीभाई चोधरी निर्मला धाम, वास कुई, मु. मढ़ी. तह. बारडोली. जि. सूरत(गुज.) आम जनता को सलाह है कि आप किसी भी प्रकार की शल्यक्रिया कराने से पहले आयुर्वेद विशेषज्ञ की सलाह अवश्य लेना। इससे शायद आप शल्यक्रिया की मुसीबत, एलोपैथी दवाओं के साईड इफेक्ट तथा स्वास्थ्य एवं आर्थिक बरबादी से बच जायेंगे। कई बार शल्यक्रिया करवाने के बावजूद भी रोग पूर्ण रूप से ठीक नहीं होता और फिर से वही तकलीफ शुरुर हो जाती है। मरीज शारीरिक-मानसिक-आर्थिक यातनाएँ भुगतता रहता है। वे ही रोग कई बार आयुर्वेदिक चिकित्सा से कम खर्च में जड़-मूल से मिट जाते हैं। कई बड़े रोगों में शल्यक्रिया के बाद भी तकलीफ बढ़ती हुई दिखती है। शल्यक्रिया की कोई गारन्टी नहीं होती। कभी ऐसा होता है कि जो रोगी बिना शल्यक्रिया के कम पीड़ा से जी सके, वही रोगी शल्यक्रिया के बाद ज्यादा पीड़ा भुगतकर कम समय में ही मृत्यु को प्राप्त हो जाता है। आयुर्वेद में भी शल्यचिकित्सा को अंतिम उपचार बताया गया है। जब रोगी को औषधि उपचार आदि चिकित्सा के बाद भी लाभ न हो तभी शल्यक्रिया की सलाह दी जाती है। लेकिन आजकल तो सीधे ही शल्यक्रिया करने की मानों, प्रथा ही चल पड़ी है। हालाँकि मात्र दवाएँ लेने से ही कई रोग ठीक हो जाते हैं, शल्यक्रिया की कोई आवश्यकता नहीं होती। लोग जब शीघ्र रोगमुक्त होना चाहते हैं तब एलोपैथी की शरण जाते हैं। फिर सब जगह से हैरान-परेशान होकर एवं आर्थिक रूप से बरबाद होकर आयुर्वेद की शरण में आते हैं एवं यहाँ भी अपेक्षा रखते हैं कि जल्दी अच्छे हो जायें। यदि आरंभ से ही वे आयुर्वेद के कुशल वैद्य के पास चिकित्सा करवायें तो उपर्युक्त तकलीफों से बच सकते हैं। अतः सभी को स्वास्थ्य के सम्बन्ध में सजग-सतर्क रहना चाहिए एवं अपनी आयुर्वेदिक चिकित्सा पद्धति का लाभ लेना चाहिए। ॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐ

अंग्रेजी दवाइयों से सावधान ! सावधान ! आप जो जहरीली अंग्रेजी दवाइयाँ खा रहे हैं उनके परिणाम का भी जरा विचार कर लें। वर्ल्ड हेल्थ आर्गेनाइजेशन ने भारत सरकार को 72000 के करीब दवाइयों के नाम लिखकर उन पर प्रतिबन्ध लगाने का अनुरोध किया है। क्यों ? क्योंकि ये जहरीली दवाइयाँ दीर्घ काल तक पेट में जाने के बाद यकृत, गुर्दे और आँतों पर हानिकारक असर करती हैं, जिससे मनुष्य के प्राण तक जा सकते हैं। कुछ वर्ष पहले न्यायाधीश हाथी साहब की अध्यक्षता में यह जाँच करने के लिए एक कमीशन बनाया गया था कि इस देश में कितनी दवाइयाँ जरूरी हैं और कितनी बिन जरूरी हैं जिन्हें कि विदेशी कम्पनियाँ केवल मुनाफा कमाने के लिए ही बेच रही हैं। फिर उन्होंने सरकार को जो रिपोर्ट दी, उसमें केवल 117 दवाइयाँ ही जरूरी थीं और 8400 दवाइयाँ बिल्कुल बिनजरूरी थीं। उन्हें विदेशी कम्पनियाँ भारत में मुनाफा कमाने के लिए ही बेच रही थीं और अपने ही देश के कुछ डॉक्टर लोभवश इस षडयंत्र में सहयोग कर रहे थे। पैरासिटामोल नामक दवाई, जिसे लोग बुखार को तुरंत दूर करने के लिए या कम करने के लिए प्रयोग कर रहे हैं, वही दवाई जापान में पोलियो का कारण घोषित करके प्रतिबन्धित कर दी गयी है। उसके बावजूद भी प्रजा का प्रतिनिधित्व करनेवाली सरकार प्रजा का हित न देखते हुए शायद केवल अपना ही हित देख रही है। सरकार कुछ करे या न करे लेकिन आपको अगर पूर्ण रूप से स्वस्थ रहना है तो आप इन जहरीली दवाइयों का प्रयोग बंद करें और करवायें। भारतीय संस्कृति ने हमें आयुर्वेद के द्वारा जो निर्दोष औषधियों की भेंट की हैं उन्हें अपनाएँ। साथ ही आपको यह भी ज्ञान होना चाहिए कि शक्ति की दवाइयों के रूप में आपको, प्राणियों का मांस, रक्त, मछली आदि खिलाये जा रहे हैं जिसके कारण आपका मन मलिन, संकल्पशक्ति कम हो जाती है। जिससे साधना में बरकत नहीं आती। इससे आपका जीवन खोखला हो जाता है। एक संशोधनकर्ता ने बताया कि ब्रुफेन नामक दवा जो आप लोग दर्द को शांत करने के लिए खा रहे हैं उसकी केवल 1 मिलीग्राम मात्रा दर्द निवारण के लिए पर्याप्त है, फिर भी आपको 250 मिलीग्राम या इससे दुगनी मात्रा दी जाती है। यह अतिरिक्त मात्रा आपके यकृत और गुर्दे को बहुत हानि पहुँचाती है। साथ में आप साइड इफेक्टस का शिकार होते हैं वह अलग ! घाव भरने के लिए प्रतिजैविक (एन्टीबायोटिक्स) अंग्रेजी दवाइयाँ लेने की कोई जरूरत नहीं है। किसी भी प्रकार का घाव हुआ हो, टाँके लगवाये हों या न लगवाये हों, शल्यक्रिया (ऑपरेशन) का घव हो, अंदरूनी घाव हो या बाहरी हो, घाव पका हो या न पका हो लेकिन आपको प्रतिजैविक लेकर जठरा, आँतों, यकृत एवं गुर्दों को साइड इफेक्ट द्वारा बिगाड़ने की कोई जरूरत नहीं है वरन् निम्नांकित पद्धति का अनुसरण करें- घाव को साफ करने के लिए ताजे गोमूत्र का उपयोग करें। बाद में घाव पर हल्दी का लेप करें। एक से तीन दिन तक उपवास रखें। ध्यान रखें कि उपवास के दौरान केवल उबालकर ठंडा किया हुआ या गुनगुना गर्म पानी ही पीना है, अन्य कोई भी वस्तु खानी-पीनी नहीं है। दूध भी नहीं लेना है। उपवास के बाद जितने दिन उपवास किया हो उतने दिन केवल मूँग को उबाल कर जो पानी बचता है वही पानी पीना है। मूँग का पानी क्रमशः गाढ़ा कर सकते हैं। मूँग के पानी के बाद क्रमशः मूँग, खिचड़ी, दाल-चावल, रोटी-सब्जी इस प्रकार सामान्य खुराक पर आ जाना है। कब्ज जैसा हो तो रोज 1 चम्मच हरड़े का चूर्ण सुबह अथवा रात को पानी के साथ लें। जिनके शरीर की प्रकृति ऐसी हो कि घाव होने पर तुरंत पक जाय, उन्हें त्रिफल गूगल नामक 3-3 गोली दिन में 3 बार पानी के साथ लेनी चाहिए। सुबह 50 ग्राम गोमूत्र तथा दिन में 2 बार 3-3 ग्राम हल्दी के चूर्ण का सेवन करने से अधिक लाभ होता है। पुराने घाव में चन्द्रप्रभा वटी की 2-2 गोलियाँ दिन में 2 बार लें। जात्यादि तेल अथवा मलहम से व्रणरोपण करें। ॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐॐ

अधिकांश हिंदू घरों में तुलसी का पौधा अवश्य ही होता है। तुलसी घर के आंगन में लगाने की प्रथा हजारों साल पुरानी है। तुलसी को दैवी का रूप माना जाता है। साथ ही मान्यता है कि तुलसी का पौधा घर में होने से घर वालों को बुरी नजर प्रभावित नहीं कर पाती और अन्य बुराइयां भी घर और घरवालों से दूर ही रहती है। तुलसी का पौधा होने से घर का वातावरण पूरी तरह पवित्र और कीटाणुओं से मुक्त रहता है। कभी-कभी किसी कारण से यह पौध सूख भी जाता है ऐसे में इसे घर में नहीं रखना चाहिए बल्कि इसे किसी पवित्र नदी ...में प्रवाहित करके दूसरा तुलसी का पौधा लगा लेना चाहिए। सुखा हुआ तुलसी का पौधा घर में रखना कई परिस्थितियों में अशुभ माना जाता है। इससे विपरित परिणाम भी प्राप्त हो सकते हैं। घर की बरकत पर बुरा असर पड़ सकता है। इसी वजह से घर में हमेशा पूरी तरह स्वस्थ तुलसी का पौधा ही लगाया जाना चाहिए। तुलसी का धार्मिक महत्व तो है ही लेकिन विज्ञान के दृष्टिकोण से तुलसी एक औषधि है। आयुर्वेद में तुलसी को संजीवनी बुटि के समान माना जाता है। तुलसी में कई ऐसे गुण होते हैं जो बड़ी-बड़ी जटिल बीमारियों को दूर करने और उनकी रोकथाम करने में काम आते हैं...

Are you sacrificing your own personal health to help others? Are you aware that if you take better care of your health, you can be there for and help more people if that is what drives you. Without your health you have nothing and you miss out on so much, by creating the wrong memories spent in hospital and ER's when you should be living life and creating memories that make other realize that they want that too!!! WAKE UP, stop feeling sorry for yourself, because at some point others will stop feeling sorry for you to. Start living the life you were truly meant for.

The official Sanskrit name for India is Bharat. INDIA has been called Bharat even in Satya yuga ( Golden Age ) INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT India The name `India’ is derived from the River Indus, the valleys around which were the home of the early settlers. The Aryan worshippers referred to the river Indus as the Sindhu. The Persian invaders converted it into Hindu. The name `Hindustan’ combines Sindhu and Hindu and thus refers to the land of the Hindus. The number system was invented by India. Aryabhatta was the scientist who invented the digit zero. Sanskrit is considered as the mother of all higher languages. This is because it is the most precise, and therefore suitable language for computer software. ( a report in Forbes magazine, July 1987 ). Chess was invented in India. Algebra, Trigonometry and Calculus are studies which originated in India. The' place value system' and the 'decimal system' were developed in 100 BC in India. The first six Mogul Emperor's of India ruled in an unbroken succession from father to son for two hundred years, from 1526 to 1707. The World's First Granite Temple is the Brihadeswara temple at Tanjavur in Tamil Nadu. The shikhara is made from a single ' 80-tonne ' piece of granite. Also, this magnificient temple was built in just five years, (between 1004 AD and 1009 AD) during the reign of Rajaraja Chola India is.......the Largest democracy in the world, the 6th largest country in the world AND one of the most ancient and living civilizations (at least 10, 000 years old). The game of snakes & ladders was created by the 13th century poet saint Gyandev. It was originally called 'Mokshapat.' The ladders in the game represented virtues and the snakes indicated vices. The game was played with cowrie shells and dices. Later through time, the game underwent several modifications but the meaning is the same i.e good deeds take us to heaven and evil to a cycle of re-births. The world's highest cricket ground is in Chail, Himachal Pradesh. Built in 1893 after levelling a hilltop, this cricket pitch is 2444 meters above sea level. India has the most post offices in the world ! The largest employer in the world is the Indian railway system, employing over a million people !. The World's first university was established in Takshila in 700 BC. More than 10,500 students from all over the world studied more than 60 subjects. The University of Nalanda built in the 4th century was one of the greatest achievements of ancient India in the field of education. Ayurveda is the earliest school of medicine known to mankind. The father of medicine, Charaka, consolidated Ayurveda 2500 years ago. Although modern images & descriptions of India often show poverty, India was one of the richest countries till the time of British in the early 17th Century. Christopher Columbus was attracted by India's wealth and was looking for route to India when he discovered America by mistake. The art of Navigation & Navigating was born in the river Sindh 6000 over years ago. The very word 'Navigation' is derived from the Sanskrit word NAVGATIH. The word navy is also derived from the Sanskrit word 'Nou'. Bhaskaracharya rightly calculated the time taken by the earth to orbit the sun hundreds of years before the astronomer Smart. His calculations was - Time taken by earth to orbit the sun: ( 5th century ) 365.258756484 days. The value of "pi" was first calculated by the Indian Mathematician Budhayana, and he explained the concept of what is known as the Pythagorean Theorem. He discovered this in the 6th century, which was long before the European mathematicians. Algebra, trigonometry and calculus also orignated from India. Quadratic equations were used by Sridharacharya in the 11th century. The largest numbers the Greeks and the Romans used were 106 whereas Hindus used numbers as big as 10*53 ( i.e 10 to the power of 53 ) with specific names as early as 5000 B.C. during the Vedic period. Even today, the largest used number is Tera: 10*12( 10 to the power of 12 ). Until 1896, India was the only source for diamonds to the world. ( Source . Gemological Institute of America ) The Baily Bridge is the highest bridge in the world. It is located in the Ladakh valley between the Dras and Suru rivers in the Himalayan mountains. It was built by the Indian Army in August 1982. Sushruta is regarded as the father of surgery. Over 2600 years ago Sushrata & his team conducted complicated surgeries like cataract, artificial limbs, cesareans, fractures, urinary stones and also plastic surgery and brain surgeries. Usage of anesthesia was well known in ancient India medicine. Detailed knowledge of anatomy, embryology, digestion, metabolism, physiology, etiology, genetics and immunity is also found in many ancient Indian texts. Did you know ? India also celebrates the birthday of Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, former President and Vice-President and great statesman, as "Teachers' Day". Born on September 5, 1888, at Tiruttani, 40 miles to the north-east of Madras, Radhakrishnan grew to become the most famous Indian teacher and philosopher of all times. In his honour, this day is celebrated as Teacher's Day. He was also the Vice-President of India from 1952-1962. He held the office of the Chancellor, University of Delhi, before taking over as the President of India in May 1962. "What makes a nation, is the past, what justifies one nation against others is the past", says the noted historian Eric Hobsbawm. Hence, when talking of a nation, it becomes very imperative that the past should also be talked about. And the past of India is as fascinating and interesting as it is momentous. Proud to be Indian ! Jai Hind !

HINDUism breeder of all world religions..
Hinduism - The Breeder Of World Religions? - All europeans were Hindu's (Vedic) at one point of time This article is just a Critical Analysis, and in no way a fool proof claim. I haven't been to the past, so I use Logic. Globally Accepted Facts Hinduism - Factually accepted to be the Oldest Religion Vedas - Factually accepted to be the Oldest Religious Script as well as the Oldest written Document (hence symbolising the most ancient literate society) Aryans (Aryas') - The common race from which Europeans and Indians (also Irani's) are known to have been derived. Aryan is derived from the Sanskrit word 'Arya' meaning 'A Noble Person'. Unfortunately a psycho German tainted the term, but 'Arya' was never a race, but a society of people with one belief. But yes Indian race is just a tanned version of the caucassian race (genetically proved). Proto-Indo-Europeans - The Aryans (Europeans and Indians) were known to be a single society at one distant point of time, which we cannot trace. Hence Philosophists call it Proto-Indo-European era. Proto-Indo-European - The common language from which Latin/Greek/Sanskrit were derived, and in turn from which the modern day Languages have been derived. English is a very close derivative of Sanskrit, as we will see. Aryan Invasion Theory - Max Muller, a British Linguist, bred a theory called the Aryan Invasion theory, after realising that the Language spoken in the Indian Subcontinent was very much similar to his. According to him, Aryans originated in eastern Europe/Central Asia (Southern Russian Steppes). A pack of them migrated south and formed the 'Vedic India'. (The theory is flawed, as we will see). Now I begin a quest into what the old civilization might have been like. Assuming Hinduism was formed after one segment of Aryans moved south into Northern India, we will be admitting that the initial Proto-Indo-European (PIE) society didn't have an organised religion. But however we see that the one of the very core English words, MAN, is derived from a Hindu mythology of a person called "Manu". In hindi we call "man" Manav and in Sanskrit, Manushya (Manu + Shishya = Followers of Manu). Hinduism existed in the PIE period It is known that the word "Manu" is synonymous with the Vedas. Manu, the saviour of mankind, is hailed throughout all the four Vedas. Hence either Vedas were written prior to emmigration, or somehow the word travelled north back to the Northern residents and got in popular use. The latter case is straight away impractical. Every european culture has the word "Manu" as the root of the word "Man" but none provide a legend behind it. Also, the word never travelled north, since the Aryan invasion theory is flawed, as we see later. Hence Vedas were written prior to seperation. Hence the PIE society did follow Hinduism or Vedic Culture to be precise. Indian's aren't Aryans migrated from the North http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A760240 Check that link, and look at the last Ice Age periods. Considering we still had 'Cold Snaps' till 3000BC, it's evident that the best place to inhibit (in Asia/Europe) was India for the past 20,000 years. Supporters of Aryan Invasion Theory claim that Veda's describe War with local inhabitants of India. Yes, true, and it also says that those local inhabitants (dursyaas) were eliminated in the battle. I agree that aryans did migrate into India from the North but they were the original tribal aryans that existed 15000 years back. 15000 years back man had just learned to cultivate crops and live a civilized life, form society and protect its existence. There may not even be a formal spoken language, let alone a written language or script. To explain that, suppose I have just learned to write and I sit down to write Indian History, I will write, "The greatest Indian King of all time was Ashoka, the sinner turned saint, the emperor who ruled from dawn to dusk (east to west)." Then I also go on to mention that the best modern day Prime Minister of India was "AB Vajpayee". What I miss is the time gap. There is a gap of 2300 years. Veda's describe everything in accurate detail, but fail to mention the Timeline. It seems everything is described in quick succession, but actually, a long span of time has been covered in "Past Tense". So when Historians analyse the Vedas, they are simply unable to decipher the time line codes. So what's the proof that Aryan's didnt come from north? The fact that not even a Single European land is mentioned in the Vedas. Ofcourse, that place was uninhabitable for a long period. Veda's never speak of comming down from the North. It just mentions the capturing of land around the River Saraswati and killing of Dursyas. I had a speak with an Archeologist and he supported the Timeline misguidance concept. The killing of Dursyas and settling around river saraswati was an ancient History, when man had just learnt the art cultivation and civilization. Flaw of the Aryan Invasion Theory Aryan Invasion Theory has been contradicted all together with the Discovery of the Ancient City of Dwarka which is submerged in the sea as of now (and as described in Mythology). The city dates to be as old as 7000 years. The Aryans were known to have arrived in India only by 3000-1500BC. So how come a city 7000 years old, located at the exact spot where the Sacred Hindu text, Mahabharata describes it to be, was found? And above all, unlike most discovered ancient cities, this one is Submerged in the sea, exactly as happened in Mahabharata. The Mahabharata very clearly states that the city sank in the sea after the death of Lord Krishna. Not only does this discovery INTENSIFY the truth factor behind Mahabharata, it converts the Mythology factor to History factor. The society described in Mahabharata was the PIE Society Yes, now this would be the major claim. From here, I would like you to research a bit on Mahabharata, and judge for yourself. Mahabharata describes a Very Very advanced society with modern infrastructure. Any person well versed with the literature, would deem it to be fictional, due to the sheer amount of advancement described. I believe that it was the PIE society that was described then. They spoke Sanskrit (what about Greek/Latin?), and believed in the Vedic Culture. Vedic culture was even more sophisticated than the present day Hinduism. Why was Sanskrit the PIE Language? Why not Greek or Latin? Study Sanskrit and you will know for yourself. It is the MOST ADVANCED AND MOST WELL DEFINED LANGUAGE OF THE WORLD. This is not a claim but a proven Fact. It is the ONE AND ONLY UNAMBIGUOUS GRAMMAR. If Artificial Intelligence in Natural Language Processing was developed, Sanskrit is the only Language that a computer would be able to understand without a single problem. Sanskrit is the OLDEST SPOKEN/WRITTEN LANGUAGE. The Devnagri script, in which Sanskrit is written, has this special property that when letters are made from hollow tubes with openings at the end, you pump air from any end, and the alphabet will make a sound as it does when spoken! Devnagri script is still in use in Hindi. And, like told before, there are certain words in Greek/Latin, which have no legend behind them, but have one in Sanskrit. How did the society break up? How were new cultures ever formed? The Vedas describe the cycle of evolution of life in four yugas (epochs/era) 1. Satya Yuga or Krita Yuga (Zero Vice, No one lies, every one is spiritual) 2. Treta Yuga (Vice is introduced, Ramayana happened in this Yuga) 3. Dvapara Yuga (Vice starts gaining popularity. Mahabharata was fought in this Yuga/era. With the end of Maharabharat, this Yuga ended.) 4. Kali Yuga (Vice at its height. Immorality everywhere, and evil will be at its such heights, that Lord Shiv - The destroyer, will himself take an incarnation and end the Yuga. After that the Satya yuga will prevail.) Now as mentioned, the Mahabharata ends, and so does the Dvapara Yuga. It's an interesting read of how Mahabharata ended. It ended with the final use of a weapon called "Brahmastra". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahmastra This weapon has been speculated to be a nuclear weapon. The way devastation has been explained, is synonymous only with a Nuclear Weapon. Also the practical detail cannot be pure fiction. Like the author says, it had power of 1000 suns, there was an incandescent column of smoke, when the bomb exploded, pottery broke miles away. Soldiers who had come in contact of radiation removed their protections and dived into water/river. Nails and hairs of soldiers fell. No one survived within a radius of many cities. There would be a famine for 12 years and mankind would end. Apart from that, if you google a bit, you will learn that there is sufficient evidence that Indus valley civilization was wiped out by a nuclear explosion. Hence my straight forward, simple and logical explanation of how societies divided, and everything was re-initiated from scratch. For those who would disagree saying that this much technology was not possible then, I say, where were we 500 years back? Horse drawn chariots and swords? When we talk of a span of 7000 years at the minimum, couldn't these 500 years have happened then? Also if you read about the Nine Unknown Men (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Unknown_Men) you will see, how the Sinner turned Saint (Ashoka), tried to prevent misuse of technology. I also suggest reading about the Ancient Indian Vimaans. The Indo-Europeans were indeed very much ahead in technology. Unique facts of Hinduism It's a very scientific religion, and has never debarred anyone from scientific research. India invented modern Mathematics (Decimal system, algebra etc). India has had the best medical science, acknowledged even today, Ayurveda. The science of Breathing, Yoga, is simply revolutionary. > Lord Krishna makes a very rare statement in the Gita: "Time is the seed of Universe" (If there is no time, there is no universe). Einstein loved that. > Moksha can be achieved by three (very logical) ways: By submitting yourself to God By Karma (Well doing for others) By gaining Knowledge (This one is rare.) > God is defined as 'Sarvagya' (The one who has unlimited knowledge) > Everything is made up of five elements. Earth Fire Water Air and Ether. The five elements are basically the five states of matter. Earth = Solid, Water = Liquid, Air = Gas, Fire = Plasma It is well evident that they put Ether = Empty space, also as a state of matter. And that is the most authentic part of it. By the statement of Lord Krishna, we know they knew about Space-Time. As we know today, anything that occupies space in Space-Time. is a form of matter. And hence so is Ether. This is an ad-on Lingual Similarities in English-Sanskrit These are just a few of thousands of such words. I will just list the core words of English and their Sanskrit/Hindi equivalents. English / Sanskrit -------- ---------- Mother / Maatru Father /Pitra/Pither (Papa comes from this) Brother /Bhraatu Name/ Naam I am/ Aham That /Tat is /Ah(uh) My/ mum (Hindi: mera) Young/ Yuv so /so (so is same in both english and hindi/sanskrit e.g. Jo karna hai so karo) Man/ Manav/Manushya Create/ Kriya/Crea (In englishe we add 'ate' to whatever we want to convert into noun-verb, like elongate, deviate etc) English has many vocubalary based words derived from languages like Latin/Greek, but the fact remains that the Core Words (the words learnt when you begin to grow) are from Sanskrit. Some vocubalary based words: Dexterity -Dakshta Progress -Pragati Existence- Astitva Exist -Asti Punch- Paanch/Punch (Punch is same in English and Sanskrit meaning 5) juggernaut- JagannAth (Hindi), literally, lord of the world (right)- Massive inexorable force, or an object that crushes whatever is in its path. Grammar based similarities: I read many, but can't remember a lot except the suffix 'ic'. It is absolutely same in Hindi, Sanskrit and English. In english we say Sporadic, Fantastic, Idiotic etc etc... Similarly in Sanskrit we say Prodyougic, Kaalpanic, Aarthic etc etc One word that emerges same from both the Languages (that I can remember) is Vedic. Its same in Sanskrit/Hindi and English. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.244035765688156.57105.182221931869540&type=1

Keep walking The Organs of your body have their sensory touches at the bottom of your foot, if you massage these points you will find relief from aches and pains as you can see the heart is on the left foot. Typically they are shown as points and arrows to show which organ it connects to. It is indeed correct since the nerves connected to these organs terminate here. God created our body so well that he thought of even this. He made us walk so that we will always be pressing these pressure points and thus keeping these organs activated at all times.

The health benefits of karela (bitter-gourd) are greater than those of many vegetables. Karela's bitter taste is generally attributed to the quinine it contains. Cooked bitter gourd stimulates the appetite, cleanses the liver, purifies the blood, and provides many other benefits. Grown in the Indian subcontinent and parts of Asia, Africa, and South America, karela (aka bitter-melon, kaakarakaya) is unsavory yet very nutritious and healthy. Karela comes in many different varieties and is similar in shape to a cucumber. In the Indian grocery stores in the US, you'll find the the Indian, dark green, spiky variety, while in the Asian stores, you'll find the lighter-green bitter-melons that are larger with a bumpy peel. A really delicious type of karela is kantola or kakrol (aa-kaakarakaya). These are small, round or oval with tiny, prickly spikes, and are not bitter at all or only slightly bitter. These taste great sliced into thin chips and either stir-fried or deep-fried. Fresh kantola are a rare sight in the US but are widely available frozen. In South India, karela and kantola, are soaked overnight in brine or buttermilk and sundried, and then deep-fried as needed, and like pappadums, served as crunchy accompaniments or added to soups and stews. These vadiyams or vadams are available in Indian grocery stores. Karela and Health----Quick Facts In Indian medicine, such as ayurveda, bitter-gourd juice (from the gourd or leaves) has long been used as a remedy for diabetes and liver problems. Karela juice is also used to treat skin problems like psoriasis, and is generally good for skin health as it purifies blood. Ayurvedic doctors also prescribe bitter-gourd juice for digestive problems and to boost immunity. A glass of karela juice with a dash of lemon, taken on an empty tummy, is supposed to improve general health as well as skin health. Karela contains a chemical called charantin which reduces high blood glucose levels, and hence the best home remedy for diabetes (as a curry or juice). Pregnant women are advised to avoid this vegetable as it can cause miscarriages. Along with fiber, karela contains several vitamins, minerals, and trace elements like vitamin C, iron, zinc, potassium, calcium, and phosphorus. Like most vegetables, karela is low in calories, and as such great for weight-loss. Studies show that bitter-melon extract can help prevent breast cancer. It makes sense to include karela in your diet as it offers so many health benefits. With Dua Aliwale Hussianwale Motive is to get connected to Shia World.

Hinduism - The Breeder Of World Religions? - All europeans were Hindu's (Vedic) at one point of time This article is just a Critical Analysis, and in no way a fool proof claim. I haven't been to the past, so I use Logic. Globally Accepted Facts Hinduism - Factually accepted to be the Oldest Religion Vedas - Factually accepted to be the Oldest Religious Script as well as the Oldest written Document (hence symbolising the most ancient literate society) Aryans (Aryas') - The common race from which Europeans and Indians (also Irani's) are known to have been derived. Aryan is derived from the Sanskrit word 'Arya' meaning 'A Noble Person'. Unfortunately a psycho German tainted the term, but 'Arya' was never a race, but a society of people with one belief. But yes Indian race is just a tanned version of the caucassian race (genetically proved). Proto-Indo-Europeans - The Aryans (Europeans and Indians) were known to be a single society at one distant point of time, which we cannot trace. Hence Philosophists call it Proto-Indo-European era. Proto-Indo-European - The common language from which Latin/Greek/Sanskrit were derived, and in turn from which the modern day Languages have been derived. English is a very close derivative of Sanskrit, as we will see. Aryan Invasion Theory - Max Muller, a British Linguist, bred a theory called the Aryan Invasion theory, after realising that the Language spoken in the Indian Subcontinent was very much similar to his. According to him, Aryans originated in eastern Europe/Central Asia (Southern Russian Steppes). A pack of them migrated south and formed the 'Vedic India'. (The theory is flawed, as we will see). Now I begin a quest into what the old civilization might have been like. Assuming Hinduism was formed after one segment of Aryans moved south into Northern India, we will be admitting that the initial Proto-Indo-European (PIE) society didn't have an organised religion. But however we see that the one of the very core English words, MAN, is derived from a Hindu mythology of a person called "Manu". In hindi we call "man" Manav and in Sanskrit, Manushya (Manu + Shishya = Followers of Manu). Hinduism existed in the PIE period It is known that the word "Manu" is synonymous with the Vedas. Manu, the saviour of mankind, is hailed throughout all the four Vedas. Hence either Vedas were written prior to emmigration, or somehow the word travelled north back to the Northern residents and got in popular use. The latter case is straight away impractical. Every european culture has the word "Manu" as the root of the word "Man" but none provide a legend behind it. Also, the word never travelled north, since the Aryan invasion theory is flawed, as we see later. Hence Vedas were written prior to seperation. Hence the PIE society did follow Hinduism or Vedic Culture to be precise. Indian's aren't Aryans migrated from the North http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A760240 Check that link, and look at the last Ice Age periods. Considering we still had 'Cold Snaps' till 3000BC, it's evident that the best place to inhibit (in Asia/Europe) was India for the past 20,000 years. Supporters of Aryan Invasion Theory claim that Veda's describe War with local inhabitants of India. Yes, true, and it also says that those local inhabitants (dursyaas) were eliminated in the battle. I agree that aryans did migrate into India from the North but they were the original tribal aryans that existed 15000 years back. 15000 years back man had just learned to cultivate crops and live a civilized life, form society and protect its existence. There may not even be a formal spoken language, let alone a written language or script. To explain that, suppose I have just learned to write and I sit down to write Indian History, I will write, "The greatest Indian King of all time was Ashoka, the sinner turned saint, the emperor who ruled from dawn to dusk (east to west)." Then I also go on to mention that the best modern day Prime Minister of India was "AB Vajpayee". What I miss is the time gap. There is a gap of 2300 years. Veda's describe everything in accurate detail, but fail to mention the Timeline. It seems everything is described in quick succession, but actually, a long span of time has been covered in "Past Tense". So when Historians analyse the Vedas, they are simply unable to decipher the time line codes. So what's the proof that Aryan's didnt come from north? The fact that not even a Single European land is mentioned in the Vedas. Ofcourse, that place was uninhabitable for a long period. Veda's never speak of comming down from the North. It just mentions the capturing of land around the River Saraswati and killing of Dursyas. I had a speak with an Archeologist and he supported the Timeline misguidance concept. The killing of Dursyas and settling around river saraswati was an ancient History, when man had just learnt the art cultivation and civilization. Flaw of the Aryan Invasion Theory Aryan Invasion Theory has been contradicted all together with the Discovery of the Ancient City of Dwarka which is submerged in the sea as of now (and as described in Mythology). The city dates to be as old as 7000 years. The Aryans were known to have arrived in India only by 3000-1500BC. So how come a city 7000 years old, located at the exact spot where the Sacred Hindu text, Mahabharata describes it to be, was found? And above all, unlike most discovered ancient cities, this one is Submerged in the sea, exactly as happened in Mahabharata. The Mahabharata very clearly states that the city sank in the sea after the death of Lord Krishna. Not only does this discovery INTENSIFY the truth factor behind Mahabharata, it converts the Mythology factor to History factor. The society described in Mahabharata was the PIE Society Yes, now this would be the major claim. From here, I would like you to research a bit on Mahabharata, and judge for yourself. Mahabharata describes a Very Very advanced society with modern infrastructure. Any person well versed with the literature, would deem it to be fictional, due to the sheer amount of advancement described. I believe that it was the PIE society that was described then. They spoke Sanskrit (what about Greek/Latin?), and believed in the Vedic Culture. Vedic culture was even more sophisticated than the present day Hinduism. Why was Sanskrit the PIE Language? Why not Greek or Latin? Study Sanskrit and you will know for yourself. It is the MOST ADVANCED AND MOST WELL DEFINED LANGUAGE OF THE WORLD. This is not a claim but a proven Fact. It is the ONE AND ONLY UNAMBIGUOUS GRAMMAR. If Artificial Intelligence in Natural Language Processing was developed, Sanskrit is the only Language that a computer would be able to understand without a single problem. Sanskrit is the OLDEST SPOKEN/WRITTEN LANGUAGE. The Devnagri script, in which Sanskrit is written, has this special property that when letters are made from hollow tubes with openings at the end, you pump air from any end, and the alphabet will make a sound as it does when spoken! Devnagri script is still in use in Hindi. And, like told before, there are certain words in Greek/Latin, which have no legend behind them, but have one in Sanskrit. How did the society break up? How were new cultures ever formed? The Vedas describe the cycle of evolution of life in four yugas (epochs/era) 1. Satya Yuga or Krita Yuga (Zero Vice, No one lies, every one is spiritual) 2. Treta Yuga (Vice is introduced, Ramayana happened in this Yuga) 3. Dvapara Yuga (Vice starts gaining popularity. Mahabharata was fought in this Yuga/era. With the end of Maharabharat, this Yuga ended.) 4. Kali Yuga (Vice at its height. Immorality everywhere, and evil will be at its such heights, that Lord Shiv - The destroyer, will himself take an incarnation and end the Yuga. After that the Satya yuga will prevail.) Now as mentioned, the Mahabharata ends, and so does the Dvapara Yuga. It's an interesting read of how Mahabharata ended. It ended with the final use of a weapon called "Brahmastra". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahmastra This weapon has been speculated to be a nuclear weapon. The way devastation has been explained, is synonymous only with a Nuclear Weapon. Also the practical detail cannot be pure fiction. Like the author says, it had power of 1000 suns, there was an incandescent column of smoke, when the bomb exploded, pottery broke miles away. Soldiers who had come in contact of radiation removed their protections and dived into water/river. Nails and hairs of soldiers fell. No one survived within a radius of many cities. There would be a famine for 12 years and mankind would end. Apart from that, if you google a bit, you will learn that there is sufficient evidence that Indus valley civilization was wiped out by a nuclear explosion. Hence my straight forward, simple and logical explanation of how societies divided, and everything was re-initiated from scratch. For those who would disagree saying that this much technology was not possible then, I say, where were we 500 years back? Horse drawn chariots and swords? When we talk of a span of 7000 years at the minimum, couldn't these 500 years have happened then? Also if you read about the Nine Unknown Men (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Unknown_Men) you will see, how the Sinner turned Saint (Ashoka), tried to prevent misuse of technology. I also suggest reading about the Ancient Indian Vimaans. The Indo-Europeans were indeed very much ahead in technology. Unique facts of Hinduism It's a very scientific religion, and has never debarred anyone from scientific research. India invented modern Mathematics (Decimal system, algebra etc). India has had the best medical science, acknowledged even today, Ayurveda. The science of Breathing, Yoga, is simply revolutionary. > Lord Krishna makes a very rare statement in the Gita: "Time is the seed of Universe" (If there is no time, there is no universe). Einstein loved that. > Moksha can be achieved by three (very logical) ways: By submitting yourself to God By Karma (Well doing for others) By gaining Knowledge (This one is rare.) > God is defined as 'Sarvagya' (The one who has unlimited knowledge) > Everything is made up of five elements. Earth Fire Water Air and Ether. The five elements are basically the five states of matter. Earth = Solid, Water = Liquid, Air = Gas, Fire = Plasma It is well evident that they put Ether = Empty space, also as a state of matter. And that is the most authentic part of it. By the statement of Lord Krishna, we know they knew about Space-Time. As we know today, anything that occupies space in Space-Time. is a form of matter. And hence so is Ether. This is an ad-on Lingual Similarities in English-Sanskrit These are just a few of thousands of such words. I will just list the core words of English and their Sanskrit/Hindi equivalents. English / Sanskrit -------- ---------- Mother / Maatru Father /Pitra/Pither (Papa comes from this) Brother /Bhraatu Name/ Naam I am/ Aham That /Tat is /Ah(uh) My/ mum (Hindi: mera) Young/ Yuv so /so (so is same in both english and hindi/sanskrit e.g. Jo karna hai so karo) Man/ Manav/Manushya Create/ Kriya/Crea (In englishe we add 'ate' to whatever we want to convert into noun-verb, like elongate, deviate etc) English has many vocubalary based words derived from languages like Latin/Greek, but the fact remains that the Core Words (the words learnt when you begin to grow) are from Sanskrit. Some vocubalary based words: Dexterity -Dakshta Progress -Pragati Existence- Astitva Exist -Asti Punch- Paanch/Punch (Punch is same in English and Sanskrit meaning 5) juggernaut- JagannAth (Hindi), literally, lord of the world (right)- Massive inexorable force, or an object that crushes whatever is in its path. Grammar based similarities: I read many, but can't remember a lot except the suffix 'ic'. It is absolutely same in Hindi, Sanskrit and English. In english we say Sporadic, Fantastic, Idiotic etc etc... Similarly in Sanskrit we say Prodyougic, Kaalpanic, Aarthic etc etc One word that emerges same from both the Languages (that I can remember) is Vedic. Its same in Sanskrit/Hindi and English. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.244035765688156.57105.182221931869540&type=1

*Q: Guruji, if we are taking any allopathic medicines, will it have any side effects to take Ayurveda along with it? * *Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:* No! The beauty of the Ayurvedic medicines is that there are no side effects and they do not contradict any other medicine. *Q: How do we know Ayurveda has no side effects?* *Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:* It has been time tested. That is the beauty of herbology. If you take any medication through herbs, they do not have side effects. All the herbal medicines in the world, if you go through their webpage, they do not have any side effects, but if you take any of the herbs in excess it may not be good for you. Like for example Triphala, is very good and it has no side effects but if you take too much of Triphala you will have diarrhea, but you cannot term that as a side effect.

Are you suffering from Sinusitis(पीनस - Ozaena) ... Do you know when trouble hits those “holes” in your head.... what happens...!! Sinusitis refers to inflammation of the sinuses that occurs with a viral, bacterial, or fungal infection. Symptoms: The classic symptoms of acute sinusitis in adults usually follow a cold that does not improve. In Ayurveda it means that kapha is vitiated in most of the cases. The paranasal sinuses are the air-filled spaces in the bones of the skull that open into the nose. One pair lies in the cheeks and another in the forehead. There are also a variable number of sinuses between the eyes and the nose. Sinusitis is the infection of these spaces. Sinusitis may be a short illness (acute sinusitis) or a condition that continues for months or years (chronic sinusitis). Chronic sinusitis is relatively uncommon nowadays. Acute sinusitis comes on following a cold. If acute sinusitis fails to clear up completely, it may develop into chronic sinusitis. Signs and Symptoms: Recurrent common cold is the first stage of these disease followed by - * Excessive or constant sneezing * Cough, often worse at night * Running Nose. * Blockage of Nostrils. * Bad breath or loss of smell * Headache usually felt in forehead and just below the eyes... pressure-like pain, pain behind the eyes, toothache, or facial tenderness * Low-grade fever. * Lack of appetite. * Difficulty in breathing. * Sore throat and postnasal drip * Heaviness in the Head * Fatigue and generally not feeling well Symptoms of Sinusitis in children include: * Cold or respiratory illness that has been improving and then begins to get worse * High fever, along with a darkened nasal discharge, for at least 3 days * Nasal discharge, with or without a cough, that has been present for more than 10 days and is not improving. Simple treatment- 1. Boil Ardraka (fresh Ginger)-10 Gms. in 250 Ml. Milk, drink everyday at bedtime. 2. Take 3-4 Gms. of Powder of equal parts of Trikatu (Equal quantities of Sunthi- Dried ginger, Maricha-Black pepper and Pippali-Piper longum) churan, root bark of Chitraka (Leadwort-Plumbago zeylanica), leaves of Talisa patra (Himalayan silver fir) and Tejpatra (Cinnamomum tamala), fruit of Chincha (Tamarind), Jiraka (Cumin), Ela (Cardamom), Amlavetasa (Rheum emodi), Chavya (Piper chaba) and Twak (Dalchini-Cinnamomum bark) in equal quantities, with Guda (Jaggery)- 5 Gms. It should be taken thrice daily. Pathya(To be taken)- Laghu ahara (light food), Warm water and Trikatu (Equal quantities of Sunthi- Dried ginger, Maricha-Black pepper and Pippali-Piper longum) churan are the useful food articles for the person suffering from it. Apathya(Not to be taken)- Guru Ahara & Viruddha ahara (difficult to digest food) and suppression of calls of nature, daytime sleep and anger should be avoided. courtesy - dr.Sudhindra Sharma

"Someone asked Swami Vivekanandaji how large God is .? "His answer was,"He is as big as the devotee or aspirant" "For some people God is mountain,a tree or a river.with the development of the psyche, the image of god also develops." "At first a temple is god's abode.Slowly one progresses to believe in his Omnipresence.At first the way to attain God is a special mantra.But this belief keeps on changing with the development of the mana(mind) & Chitta(mind stuff,psyche)." "Hence a true individual beings, aspirant does not try to change anyone else's belief.Otherwise the natural faith of that person might be destroyed,when he could not accept any higher faith due to the limitations of his state of mind." "The the person would not be at home anywhere.On the contrary,an aspirants tries to further support and strengthen the faith of the person,and when he develops his faith he will automatically change." "The perspective of a human, aspirant, sadhak or individual being of universe is totally different from that of the world.He seeks social conduct & spiritual welfare for the world and for himself." He does not hesitate if he has to stop and wait for a while for the good of others to manifest.He does not assault anyone's sentiments.He does not hurt anyone's ego.This is true for the imagined God as well.He does not play with anybody's faith.He does not repudiate their belief,he helps." "Debates about god are meaningless.principles have been established according to the experiences of the spiritual masters. On the basis of those principles many different views have developed and followers of these tradition have begun to dispute." God must be wondering,! "what kind of a living being i created."! " On the basis of imagination they are ready to cut each other's throats without any experience they are swinging stick in the dark.A wise & thoughtful human being does not get involved in any argument.He understands that these differences are due to different perspective and experiences.Otherwise nobody can bind god in any definition,description or explanation." 'For example,if you goto a temple in northIndia,the costumes of lord Krishna & Radha will be in a north Indian style.If you go to Maharashtra,it will be in Maharashtrian.At a place where I (Shivom Tirthji) I stayed, the heat of the household was devoted to rituals.He felt like smoking a hukka ( an Indian pipe bar smoking tobacco)." "He prepared a small hukka and kept it infront of the idol of God.After that he prepared his own hukka and started to smoke. When i asked him why, he said, "if i smoke a hukka why should not my God." "It is human nature to try to imagine things are beyond one's reach.A human writes articles and get involved in arguments about subjects that are beyond his intellect.He knows that his mind and senses cannot reach the god,yet he makes temples and places of pilgrimage to try to reach him." "Human beings have an attachment for the body on the one hand, and, on the other, try to attain God."

क्या कहता है आयुर्वेद?...खाने के बीच पानी पीना चाहिए या नहीं माना जाता है कि पानी हमारे शरीर को तरोताजा रखता है। स्वस्थ रहना है तो ईश्वर की इस देन का भरपूर आनंद उठायें। पानी पीने से पाचन तंत्र प्राकृतिक रूप से ठीक रहता है। सुबह उठने पर एक गिलास पानी पीने से पेट साफ रहता है, साथ ही इससे आपको कब्ज की परेशानी नहीं होती। साथ ही त्वचा भी चमकने लगती है। ये तो सभी जानते हैं कि पानी सबसे उत्तम पेय है लेकिन कुछ लोग कहते हैं कि भोजन करते समय बीच-बीच में पानी पीते रहना चाहिए जबकि कुछ लोग कहते हैं कि नहीं पीना चाहिए। लेकिन अगर आयुर्वेद की माने तो खाने के साथ पानी पीने से बचना चाहिए। खाना लंबे समय तक पेट में रहेगा तो शरीर को पोषण ज्यादा मिलेगा। अगर पानी ज्यादा लेंगे तो खाना फौरन नीचे चला जाएगा। खाने के समय पानी पीने से यह पेट की सतह पर ही सोख लिया जाता है। यह क्रिया तब तक चलती रहती है जब तक कि पेट में पाचन के लिए जरूरी द्रव्य गाढ़े न हो जाएं कि वे खाने का पाचन कर पाए। लेकिन खूब सारे पानी पीने के कारण यह द्रव्य पेट में मौजूद भोजन से भी अधिक गाढ़ा हो चुका होता है, ऐसे में भोजन पचाने के लिए पेट में गैस्ट्रिक जूस बनना शुरु हो जाता है। परिणामस्वरूप भोजन नहीं पचता और सीने में जलन होती है।अगर पीना ही है तो थोड़ा पिएं और गुनगुना या नॉर्मल पानी पिएं। बहुत ठंडा पानी पीने से बचना चाहिए। पानी में अजवाइन या जीरा डालकर उबाल लें। यह खाना पचाने में मदद करता है। खाने से आधा घंटा पहले या एक घंटा बाद गिलास भर पानी पीना अच्छा है।

The health benefits of karela (bitter-gourd) are greater than those of many vegetables. Karela's bitter taste is generally attributed to the quinine it contains. Cooked bitter gourd stimulates the appetite, cleanses the liver, purifies the blood, and provides many other benefits. Grown in the Indian subcontinent and parts of Asia, Africa, and South America, karela (aka bitter-melon, kaakarakaya) is unsavory yet very nutritious and healthy. Karela comes in many different varieties and is similar in shape to a cucumber. In the Indian grocery stores in the US, you'll find the the Indian, dark green, spiky variety, while in the Asian stores, you'll find the lighter-green bitter-melons that are larger with a bumpy peel. A really delicious type of karela is kantola or kakrol (aa-kaakarakaya). These are small, round or oval with tiny, prickly spikes, and are not bitter at all or only slightly bitter. These taste great sliced into thin chips and either stir-fried or deep-fried. Fresh kantola are a rare sight in the US but are widely available frozen. In South India, karela and kantola, are soaked overnight in brine or buttermilk and sundried, and then deep-fried as needed, and like pappadums, served as crunchy accompaniments or added to soups and stews. These vadiyams or vadams are available in Indian grocery stores. Karela and Health----Quick Facts In Indian medicine, such as ayurveda, bitter-gourd juice (from the gourd or leaves) has long been used as a remedy for diabetes and liver problems. Karela juice is also used to treat skin problems like psoriasis, and is generally good for skin health as it purifies blood. Ayurvedic doctors also prescribe bitter-gourd juice for digestive problems and to boost immunity. A glass of karela juice with a dash of lemon, taken on an empty tummy, is supposed to improve general health as well as skin health. Karela contains a chemical called charantin which reduces high blood glucose levels, and hence the best home remedy for diabetes (as a curry or juice). Pregnant women are advised to avoid this vegetable as it can cause miscarriages. Along with fiber, karela contains several vitamins, minerals, and trace elements like vitamin C, iron, zinc, potassium, calcium, and phosphorus. Like most vegetables, karela is low in calories, and as such great for weight-loss. Studies show that bitter-melon extract can help prevent breast cancer.

आयुर्वेद के आधे डॉक्टर ही बजट में आयुर्वेद अस्पतालों में यूनानी चिकित्सा सुविधा शुरू करने की भी बात कही गई है। पिछले बजट में भी 289 आयुर्वेद डाक्टर्स, 40 यूनानी और 40 होम्योपैथी डॉक्टरों की भर्ती की बात कही गई थी। इसके बावजूद आज भी जिले में आयुर्वेद के 70 में से 37 पद रिक्त पड़े हैं। ऐसे में 37 आयुर्वेद अस्पतालों में ग्रामीणों को कोई सुविधा नहीं मिल रही। अब सरकार ने इनमें यूनानी चिकित्सा की भी बात कही है। कई गांव तो ऐसे हैं जहां आयुर्वेद अस्पतालों पर ताला लगा है। वहां डॉक्टर के अभाव में ग्रामीणों को मजबूरी में एलोपैथी इलाज करवाना पड़ता है। सवाल यह उठता है कि जब पिछले साल नई भर्ती की बात कही गई थी तो उसका लाभ जालोर जैसे जिलों को क्यों नहीं मिल पाता।

Walked over at the hilly park in my old neighborhood yesterday. The grass will be cut there soon, but the plethora of violets have never been so checkered throughout amongst the dandelions. Chromo values with such a distinguished heightening of the loam really had a neat florescent expression. They looked of heaped splashes in their bluegrass palette, looked like Rolling Stone tongue, belched into spring anthem. I may have to go and pick a kroger's bag of them to dry to have flower tea-- I suppose it'll be chamomile-like. I may ask my botany biologist degreed brother if there is anything special I might do for preparation, knowing it's Just to dry them. While he's well-versed by enduring a slowly revealed nature-self like wisdom tradition, adjudging the polis in its impulsive corralling of evermore specters--its dis-ease is no beck to rally. Today, apace with stumbly grass, city-scape colludes in my resolve to be still, unshadowed postulate heady-me in nature's breathy ayurveda persona--

Q: Guruji, the season is changing once again. Can you please tell us the importance of ‘Ahar Vihar’, food and lifestyle to be maintained with every season. How does it impact us? Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Ancient people have done a lot of research on that. Also the modern nutritionists have done quite a bit of research, and if you go and Google, you find a lot of things on what to eat in this season. Today all knowledge is available on the fingertips, correct! According to Ayurveda there are Vata, Pitta, and Kapha seasons. Now when the summer comes, it is the Pitta that will go high, so you have to take things which calms the Pitta. Nature is such that it produces only those things which are good for that season. Like in winter pumpkins and gooseberries grow. These are necessary for winter and in summer, they cut watermelons and sugarcanes and make sugarcane juice. This is the season of watermelon. Watermelon never comes in winter and they would not grow watermelon in winter. Watermelon comes up only in this season, now. So the fruits, vegetables and everything, nature has done it in such a way to suit us according to the time and season. But now, we have gone so far away from nature and our body has also gotten adjusted to that. Otherwise when you are in a climate where bananas, papayas and mangoes grow, there apples do not grow. But now we eat apples also here. We bring apple from other regions. Where apples are grown, bananas don’t grow there in the same climate. Pears, apples, peaches, berries, strawberries and cherries, they all grow in one climate. Is it not? But you will see people in those climates eat papaya and bananas, which don’t grow there. That is the ideal thing, but you do not need to worry about it because now your body is used to apple, pineapple and everything, but in one meal see to that you take only those things together. Suppose you are taking bananas, papaya, chikoo and coconut, they all go together. They are tropical fruits. Then at another time you can eat apples, pears, cherries and as such.
