Ayurveda is based on 2 principles
1. Swasthasya Saasthya Rakshanam ( Maintaining health of a healthy)
2. Aathurasya Vikaara Prashamanam ( Curing the diseased)
Focus is more on maintaining the health while curative part is secondary.


Approach towards a condition (healthy or diseased) has been broadly classified into 3 in the order of importance.
1. Aahara ( Dietics)
2. Vihaara ( Lifestyle, mainly habits)
3. Oushadha ( Medical intervention)


As we know that we are a result of what we eat and what we do. That is why lot of importance has been give to the first 2 approaches.


When you see 100s of companies manufacturing 1000s of medicines in the market, you should understand that it contributes to only 1/3rd of the approach or philosophy of Ayurveda. We are not a medicine oriented science. We are HEALTH oriented.

Reached Cairo and was driven through the city. Didn't miss my Chennai at all. Bad roads, congested, disorganised and noisy traffic. I am already feeling at home.


Came to a friend's place. Her name is Maha and she is a yoga exponent. Amazing hospitality. Traditionally set house. Look at my room.


All geared up to start work from tomorrow.
