history

Practice of Ayurveda feel into disuse after repeated foreign invasions of India. It was in late 19th century and the early 20th century that people started thinking afresh about the development Ayurveda.

Five thousand years ago in the magnificent Himalayas, one of the greatest sages of India, Vayasa Maharshi wrote down the Vedas for the first time. One of the treatise included was Ayurveda. Vyasa entrusted the original copies of the texts with his most erudite and enlightened disciples, who along with other great sages, inaugurated a very long sacrificial ceremony for hundreds of years for the purification and blessings of the entire world. Remember it was common that people lived for one to two thousand years during that era. They studied and discussed these ancient texts with their own disciples, who wrote commentaries, and expanded and developed these original and eternal truths without ever altering them.

After the conclusion of this sacrifice, copies of this perfect Vedic texts were placed in various temples and libraries throughout India. They were written down in the original Sanskrit language for the benefit of the general population, Sanskrit being the spoken language then.

Beside the descriptions of hundreds of herbal drugs in the Vedas, there were several additions, later on, by other sages like Sushruta, Charaka, etc. on how to perform prosthetic surgery to replace limbs, cosmetic and facial surgery, cesarean section, and even brain surgery.

Archaeological excavations and research has uncovered evidence that proves that some of these operations were performed successfully between 3,000 and 5,000 years ago. The great sage Charaka has described in detail in Ayurveda, the development of the child within the womb week by week, month by month, limb by limb, from conception to birth, that equals our modern medical texts in accuracy. There is information about atomic energy, gynecology, pediatrics, surgery anatomy, herbal drugs, Ayurvedic dieting and nutrition. All are described in the most simple and profound manner so as to make it easy enough for any person to have a basic working knowledge of this great science of life-Ayurveda.
