Doctors of Ayurvedic Course |
Globally increasing awareness for the treatment without
chemicals and interest for organic diet are two basic reasons for
popularization of Ayurveda. It is important to make it clear that vision
of looking on ayurveda as a system of treatment or a pathy is very poor
and insufficient, more appropriately it is a complete philosophy or way
of living. Basic materials of ayurveda like salt, sweet, wheat, rice,
turmeric, ginger, peeper, coriander are integral part of our life from
birth to death and not the chemicals in the tablets or capsules.
Ayurvedic lifestyle, herbs, diet, Panchkarma and yoga has already
started making a place for itself in the United States, countries of
Europe and several other countries around the world. The earlier
skepticism about it and the misconceptions of it being some thing akin
to quackery is fast fading as more and more people and doctors
themselves are now getting opportunities to have first hand experience
of this system of medicine, nay a system of holistic approach towards
health. The occidentalists take their own time in understanding many an
eastern phenomenon because of their own strong notions of ‘scientific
knowledge’ and ‘system’ and their over faith in their own knowledge and
experience. Till the time they don’t fully understand any phenomenon
they tend to dismiss it as some thing like magic, phony or quackery.
However their recent first hand encounters with Ayurvedic system of
holistic health has turned them on to take it seriously and learn and
benefit from it.
During my recent visit to Romania, where I was on an Ayurvedic teaching
assignment, my experience of teaching 40 doctors, all of whom were
allopathic graduates and specialists, got all the more spirited when I
found that a good number of the Romanian doctors were already having
very good knowledge of Ayurveda. Some of them were studying and
practicing the Ayurveda for more than 15 years. Another factor which
left deep mark on me was that they were sharing the knowledge of
Ayurveda with Guru Shishya Parampara i.e teacher-taught tradition in
their country without much help from Indian Ayurvedic experts until now.
This is exactly the way by which wisdom of Ayurveda traveled from Guru
Agnivesh to his disciple Acharya Charak and thus on. It therefore became
all the more challenging and exciting in comparison to my previous three
years of Ayurvedic teaching in Holland & Belgium. In fact Romanian
doctors, because of their already sufficient knowledge of Ayurvedic
medicine and practices provided me with a new challenge to teach and
satisfy their highly professional queries in this regard. I must say
here that there were many things which I gained from them. This happens
when there is a teacher and in front of him there is a group of students
highly keen and motivated to learn. It was an experience for me when I
successfully explained to them the intricacies of Ayurveda in
correlation with modern medicine and practices because of their medical
background in allopathy.
Another remarkable factor of this interaction is that these Romania
doctors did a wonderful job by describing more than 250 Romanian herbs
on Ayurvedic principles of Rasa, Guna, Virya, Vipaka and Dosh Prabhava
i.e. taste, property, potency, post digestive effect & effect on dosha.
Their some of the works are as following

During my stay at 2.5 months in Romania I traveled to several areas of
Romania. I found that common people in the major cities like Bucharest,
Cluj, Iasi, Timisoara, Craiova & towns like Pitesti, Huedin, Ploiesti,
Suceava, Gura Humorului, Botosani & Arad were familiar about the
existence and affectivity of Ayurveda. Many of them came for Ayurvedic
consultation and wanted to know about their doshic constitution and plan
their diet and life style accordingly.
People of Romania are pure and warm because Romania was never a colonial
power like many other western European countries and after word war
second it adopted communist system of government. Because of both of
these factors it is very rare to see any other skin color than white.
River Danube pouring in Black Sea sustains virgin landscapes, and
beautiful mountains provide this small country a very spectacular out
look. Orthodox Christian monasteries like Voronet, Moldovia, Cozia.
After this assignment of Romania my believe is more strong now that
Knowledge is always a mutual sharing, while imparting knowledge one
automatically gains some knowledge also and new idea can anytime change
the life.
