Some Ayurvedic Tips for Health and Vigor

Health Tips - Some Ayurvedic Tips For Health and Vigor-1

The series on Ayurveda aims at acquainting the readers of "Akhand Jyoti: The Light Divine" with the easy-to-use preventive and therapeutic modes of this Vedic Science of Life. The broad topics covered under this series since 2003 include: Interpretation and Reinvestigation of Ayurvedic Philosophy of Well-being in New Scientific Light; Yoga and Ayurveda; Diagnostics in Ayruveda; Tips of Routine and Daily Practices for Sustenance and Augmentation of Vigor and Immunity; Ayurvedic Decoction Therapy – significant findings and prescriptions of the Herbal Lab at Brahmvarchas Research Centre, Shantikunj, Hardwar. Sound mind, happy heart and healthy body are interdependent. The founders ofAyurveda had well understood and incorporated this fact in this ancient Indian science of medicine. Today, the luxurious life-style, stressful jobs, environmental pollution, and varieties of complications in the familial and social system have increased the psychosomatic disorders at an alarming rate. The clinical studies and surveys across the globe show hypertension, diabetes, cardiac diseases and spinal problems, muscular spasm and body-pains as common health hazards of this category. Imbalanced, stressful routine, excessively ambitious and cutthroat competition, comfort-driven attitude, smoking, high-calorie lavish food are identified as the major causes of these diseases. "Akhand Jyoti" (Hindi) has been providing practical guidance from time to time, on how one could enhance the resistance and vitality levels of the body by some simple practices of scientific spirituality and art of living. Many readers of this Hindi magazine and its translated versions have benefited by adopting these guidelines. However, the need for risk-free, effective and low-cost medicines remains important, given the rising number of patients all over the world. In view of the limitations of modern medicines in curing and controlling the psychosomatic disorders and diseases, the relevance and importance of herbal medicines as effective alternative and complementary therapies has been recognized by the frontline scientists over the few decades. Extensive research is now going on in several reputed laboratories in these areas. However, the modern, especially the Western experimental methods revolve around identification, extraction and large-scale production of active chemical compounds from plants and herbs prescribed inAyurveda and Chinese Scriptures of Medicines. This approach ignores the radical component of Ayurvedic and Chinese medicines, viz., synergistic effects of whole herb/plant, the vital energy of its fresh natural form processed without chemicals, etc.  Health Tips - Some Ayurvedic Tips For Health and Vigor-2 The Ayurvedic research laboratories at Brahmvarchas Research Centre and Dev Sanskriti Univeristy, Shantikunj Hardwar have taken up the challenge to reinvestigate and prepare herbal/phyto- medicines as per the original Vedic scriptural guidance after confirming the identify, morphology and natural properties of the plants. Apart from the innovative decoction therapy, the researchers here have brought out varieties of medicines for common complaints ranging from headache, body-ache, sprain, common cold, acidity, constipation, diarrhea, dysentery, to skin allergies and dandruff. Effective brain-energizers like Sarawasti Panchak, Pragya Peya and multipurpose, season-specific tonics of delicious taste such as Ashwagandha Paak, Chuharra Paak, dry and paste forms of Chyavanpraash, are among their major contributions. Most importantly, the Pharmacy of Shantikunj is the also the first and perhaps the only in the world that cites one-day to several months’ expiry dates on each medicine and tonic, as per the optimal period of natural effects of the products. Yagyopathy lab here is the only scientific lab in the world for yagya-therapy research. Pioneering research and therapeutic applications studied here have shown promising role of this unique Vedic method of Ayurvedic healing. Our future series will focus on yagya-therapy. The series for the year 2006 pertains to Ayruvedic herbal treatment of some common diseases, which have been the cause of serious concern since past couple of decades. Like the earlier series on Ayurvedic Therapies, this series is also based on the information on theoretical investigation of the ancient scriptures and experimental research findings available at the Brahmvarchas Research Centre’s Herbal Lab and the positive outcomes of large-scale therapeutic applications prescribed at the allied clinics of the Gayatri Pariwar.  Health Tips - Some Ayurvedic Tips For Health and Vigor-3 (1) Dry Powders and Tablets against High Blood Pressure:  Ingredients: Brahmi 200gm, Shankpushpi 100gm, Jatamansi 200gm, Vijaya 200gm, Kalijiri (bitter) 100gm, Ajmoda 50gm, Sarpgandha 400gm, Rock Salt 25gm, Ajvain 50gm, Mukta Pishti 10gm, Prabal Pishti 20gm, Silver Bhasm 10gm, Shankha Bhasm 50gm, Nausadar 10gm, Arjun Chhal 100gm, Punarnava 100gm, Sajji Khar 10gm, Sweet Soda 15gm.

Tiny tablets (of the size of one grain of black gram) should be made from its dough prepared by mixing appropriate amounts of Ghratkumari in it. Diabetic patients should take one tablet each with water every day in the morning and evening. They should also observe the diet restrictions as advised by their doctors. These tables alleviate the disorder of glucose homeostatic system and also stimulate the pancreas to regulate the in-vivo production of insulin and thus provide good remedial effect. (4) Pain Relieving Oils: Patients of Arthritis, Osteoporosis, and varieties of bone and vertebral column related problems and also the aging people suffer from joints-pain, backache, leg pain, knee pain and what not. Such complaints have become quite common these days. Instead of taking chemically synthesized modern pain killing medicines and spoiling the natural harmony of the physiological system, the Ayurvedic decoction of fresh herbal medicines (some of which were described in the earlier series) should be tried out with appropriate yoga-exercises. Massaging with natural herbal oils provides excellent support in relieving or substantially allaying the pains in most cases. We present below the method of preparation of a herbal oil of this kind. Ingredients: (1) Mustard oil 100gm, (2) Methi beeja (Fenugreek seeds) 10gm, (3) Dhatura beeja 10gm, (4) Kaner root (Yellow Kaner) 10gm, (5) Kuchala seeds 10 gm, (6) Juice of Aak root or leafs 10gm, (7) Bhanga leafs 4gm, (8) Garlic 4gm, (9) Atis 3gm, (10) Red Chilly seeds 2gm, (11) Ajvain 3gm, (12) Bhilava 5gm, (13) Root of Kantakari (Bhatkataiya) 10gm, (14) Kalihari roots 3gm, (15) Priyangu seeds 3gm, (16) Tobacco 2gm, (17) Shankhiya (to be used only if necessary) 2gm, (18) Bach 5gm, (19) Turmeric 5gm, (20) Nagphani 10gm, (21) Peppermint essence 5gm, (22) Ajvain (aniseed) essence 2gm, (23) Camphor (Bhimseni Kapoor) essence 10gm, (24) Methyl Salicylate 20ml, (25) Terpentine oil 3ml, (26) Eucelyptus oil 3ml.  Health Tips - Some Ayurvedic Tips For Health and Vigor-5 Method of Preparation: Chop or crush the herbs stated at sr. nos. (2) to (20) into small pieces of the size of a wheat grain. (Note: Shankhiya should be used only in case of acute pains). Then cook them in the mustard oil in mild heat. Stir it for 2-3 minutes with the help of cooking spoon so that nothing burns or sticks on the casserole. The mix is ready. Its heating should be put off when it becomes blackish and the mustard oil begins to smell of burning. Let it cool up to some lukewarm temperature. Then filter it using a clean cloth-piece. The mix on the cloth should be pressed and shaken properly with the help of a spoon so that all the oil and essence of the herbs is squeezed out. Keep the items listed at (21)-(23) in a steel or glass utensil and stir thoroughly to make a uniform solution. Mix this liquid in the filtered herbal oil (prepared by the above-described method). Then successively dissolve the constituents listed at sr. nos. (24)-(26) in this preparation. The oil is now ready for use. Keep it in a glass bottle using adequate airtight lid. For stronger remedial and therapeutic effects, about 50 to 100gm of condensed fresh urine of cow and about 50gm liquid extracted from fresh cow dung are also used. These are first boiled in 125gm of mustard oil; the layers deposited on oil during this process are to be removed with help of a spoon. Stop heating when the cow-urine and cow-dung water evaporate completely. Now there will be about 100 gm of ‘processed’ mustard oil. Let it cool and mix the ingredients listed above at sr. nos. (2)-(20) and repeat the method described above. This oil is only for external use. As it has some toxicity, it should not be applied in any part above the neck. It should be kept away from the reach of children. As a precaution, it should not be used by pregnant women. As per Ayurvedic diagnostics, often the pains in body parts, especially joints, back or sciatica types occur due to the ailments of Vata. It is recommended in such cases to drink one spoon of castor oil. It should be continued for 1 or 2 days only. It works like an anima and clears the stomach of the undigested, rotten accumulations that give rise to vata. In case taking castor oil with plain water is not effective, two spoons of this oil should be drank in with a glass of lukewarm milk. In rare cases, even if with two spoons the patient does not get loose motions, the amount may be increased as per the recommendations of Ayurvedic doctors. This remedy should be repeated after a week. Taking the decoctions of Dashmula and Maharasna (preparations described in earlier series; this magazine 2004) renders healthy support in this treatment.

THROUGH A RAPIST'S EYES" (PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THIS. it may save a life.)

THROUGH A RAPIST'S EYES" (PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THIS. it may save a life.)

 

It seems that a lot of attackers use some tactic to get away with violence. Not many
people know how to take care of themselves when faced with such a
situation. Everyone should read this especially each n every girl in this world.


THOUGHT THIS WAS GOOD INFO TO PASS ALONG...
FYI - Through a rapist's eyes! A group of rapists and date rapists in
prison were interviewed on what they look for in a potential victim
and here are some interesting facts:

1] The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle.
They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun! , braid
or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to
go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common
targets.

2] The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women
who's clothing is easy to remove quickly. Many of them carry scissors
around to cut clothing.

3] They also look for women using their cell phone, searching through
their purse or doing other activities while walking because they are
off guard and can be easily overpowered.

4] The number one place women are abducted from / attacked at is
grocery store parking lots.

5] Number two is office parking lots/garages.

6] Number three is public restrooms.

7] The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman
and quickly move her to a second location where they don't have to
worry about getting caught.

8] If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged
because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going
after you isn't worth it because it will be time-consuming.

9] These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas,or
other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their
hands.

10] Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to
the attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince
these guys you're not worth it.

POINTS THAT WE SHOULD REMEMBER:

1] If someone is following behind you on a street or in a garage or
with you in an elevator or stairwell, look them in the face and ask
them a question, like what time is it, or make general small talk:
can't believe it is so cold out here, we're in for a bad winter. Now
that you've seen their faces and could identify them in a line- up,
you lose appeal as a target.

2] If someone is coming toward you, hold out your hands in front of
you and yell Stop or Stay back! Most of the rapists this man talked to
said they'd leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would
not be afraid to fight back. Again, they are looking for an EASY
target.

3] If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of
it and carries it with him wherever he goes,) yelling I HAVE PEPPER
SPRAY and holding it out will be a deterrent.

4] If someone grabs you, you can't beat them with strength but you can
do it by outsmarting them. If you are grabbed around the waist from
behind, pinch the attacker either under the arm between the elbow and
armpit or in the upper inner thigh - HARD. One woman in a class this
guy taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was
trying to date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin
and tore out muscle strands the guy needed stitches. Try pinching
yourself in those places as hard as you can stand it; it really hurts.

5] After the initial hit, always go for the groin. I know from a
particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy's parts it
is extremely painful. You might think that you'll anger the guy and
make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our
instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause him a lot of
trouble. Start causing trouble, and he's out of there.

6] When the guy puts his hands up to you, grab his first two fingers
and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing
down on them as possible. The instructor did it to me without using
much pressure, and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked
audibly.

7] Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of
your surroundings, take someone with you if you can and if you see any
odd behavior, don't dismiss it, go with your instincts. You may feel
little silly at the time, but you'd feel much worse if the guy really
was trouble.

FINALLY, PLEASE REMEMBER THESE AS WELL ....
I know you are smart enough to know these pointers but there will be
some, where you will go "hmm I must remember that" After reading,
forward it to someone you care about, never hurts to be careful in
this crazy world we live in.

1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do: The elbow is the strongest point on your
body. If you are close enough to use it, do it.

2. Learned this from a tourist guide to New Orleans : if a robber asks
for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from
you.... chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or
purse than you and he will go for the wallet/purse. RUN LIKE MAD IN
THE OTHER DIRECTION!

3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car: Kick out the back
tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like
crazy. The driver won't see you but everybody else will. This has
saved lives.

4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping,eating,
working, etc., and just sit
(doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc. DON'T DO THIS! The
predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for
him to get in on the passenger side,put a gun to your head, and tell
you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU CLOSE the DOORS , LEAVE.

5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or
parking garage:

a. Be aware: look around your car as someone may be
hiding at the passenger side , peek into your car, inside the
passenger side floor, and in the back seat. ( DO THIS TOO BEFORE
RIDING A TAXI CAB) .

b. If you! u are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the
passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling
them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their
cars.

c. Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and
the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest
your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a
guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE
THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)

6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are
horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot).

7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS
RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times;
And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN!

8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP IT! It may
get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a
good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies
of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often
asked "for help" into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when
he abducted his next victim.

I'd like you to forward this to all the women you know. It may save a
life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle. I was going
to send this to the ladies only, but guys, if you love your mothers,
wives, sisters, daughters, etc., you may want to pass it onto them, as
well.

Send this to any woman you know that may need to be reminded that the
world we live in has a lot of crazies in it and it's better safe than
sorry.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF DATES

HEALTH BENEFITS OF DATES

 
Dates are termed as a crownGaining Weight of sweets and ideal food which easily balances and digests food. It gives extra energy to a tired human body within half an hour after taking it. Dates are considered to be the best diet for confinement of the women. American Cancer Society recommends intake of 20-35 grams of dietary fibre in a day, supplied through dates. It is said that taking one date in a day will help you to maintain your healthy eyes for your lifetime. They are quiet effective in guarding the night blindness problems.

Benefits of dates

* Constipation: Date is termed to be a laxative food. This is the reason that dates are beneficial for people suffering from constipation. For getting the laxative effect from dates, you need to soak dates for one full night in water. You should consume these soaked dates in the morning like syrup to get their actual advantages.

* Intestinal Disorders: The nicotinic content that is present in the dates is said to be beneficial for curing any kinds of intestinal disorders. Continuous intake of dates helps to maintain a check on the growth of the pathological organisms and thus, helps in the rise of friendly bacteria in the intestines.

* Weight Gain: Dates are said to be a part of healthy diet. They consist of sugar, fats, proteins as well as many essential vitamins. If the dates are consumed with the paste of cucumber, one can easily come out from the problem of over-slimming. One kilogram of dates contains almost 3,000 calories. These calories alone are sufficient to meet the daily requirements of a human body.

* Healthy Heart: Dates are quite helpful in maintaining your heart in a healthy condition. When soaked for a night and crushed in the morning and consumed, they prove to be quite advantageous for weak hearts. They help in fortifying the heart, if taken twice in a week.

* Sexual Weakness: Dates are even beneficial for increasing sexual stamina in the human body. A handful of dates, when soaked in fresh goat's milk for the night and then grinded in the same milk with the mixture of cardamom powder and honey, becomes a very useful tonic for increasing sex endurance and sterility caused due to functional disorders.

* Diarrhea: Ripe dates contain potassium. Potassium is beneficial for controlling diarrhea. They are easily digestible, which helps to cope up with the problems of diarrhea.

* Intoxication: Dates are known as an excellent remedy for alcoholic intoxication. Dates provide quick relief in the case of alcoholic intoxication. They should be rubbed and soaked overnight for getting more nutritious values from them.

* Abdominal Cancer: Dates are beneficial for curing abdominal cancer. They work as useful tonic for all age groups. They work as better as the medicines, and are natural and do not bear any side effects in the body. They can be easily digested and used for supplying extra and needed energy.

Although dates carry tremendous nutritional values, great care should be taken in their selection because they consists of sticky surface which attracts various impurities in them. Hence, you should consume only those dates that are processed and packed properly. Make sure to wash them thoroughly before consuming. This will help remove the impurities present in them.

THE BIG BU$INESS OF CANCER and OVERDIAGNOSING CANCER

THE BIG BU$INESS OF CANCER and OVERDIAGNOSING CANCER

 
Dr. Tim O'Shea in TO THE CANCER PATIENT: “Most cancers are not found until autopsy. That's because they never caused any symptoms. For example 30 - 40 times as many cases of thyroid, pancreatic, and prostate cancer are found in autopsy than ever presented to the doctor. According to a study cited in top British medical journal Lancet 13 Feb 93, early screening often leads to unnecessary treatment: 33% of autopsies show prostate cancer but only 1% die from it. After age 75, half of males may have prostate cancer, but only 2% die from it. This means simply that the immune system can hold many problems in check, as long as it is not compromised by powerful procedures. ... A 1992 study in Journal of the American Medical Association of 223 patients concluded that no treatment at all for prostate cancer actually was better than any standard chemotherapy, radiation or surgical procedure. (Johansson)”.

A very poignant example of what this type of “overdiagnosing” can lead to in a case of “breast cancer” is furnished by L. P. whose report details the shock, trauma & disfigurement she experienced after a mammogram revealed a tiny anomaly in her left breast. Clearly, in her case (as I feel in many or possibly most other cases of official cancer diagnosis) doing “nothing” but upgrading one’s diet (which is actually frequently of central importance, not just re cancer but for overall physical and mental health recovery and/or maintenance) and generally improving one’s life and lifestyle on all levels (emotional, spiritual, environmental etc.) would have been immeasurably more beneficent, and probably led to true healing, i.e. healing at the causative level.

Indeed, one thing often forgotten is that everyone apparently "has" cancer, i.e. there are some maverick cells created all the time in most/all people’s bodies. These are officially diagnosed and labelled as cancer of course only after reaching a certain mass and when people have themselves "checked" (either because they are admonished to do so as the responsible thing to do via various "public health" announcements or because they observe symptoms of ill health in themselves). But frequently it seems what eventually kills people is not the cancer but rather the combined effect of the diagnosis (felt like a death sentence with the corresponding trauma and fear of dying, both negative emotional states which suppress the immune system) and the treatment they allow themselves to receive (invasive surgery/biopsies leading to spreading plus toxic chemotherapy and radiation, all of which possibly entail serious side effects).

WHO'S WINNING?

We're constantly being hit with media stories about "progress" in the war on cancer and new "breakthrough" drugs and procedures being "right around the corner." The military rhetoric hasn't changed since 1971. Is it true that we're winning the war against cancer like they're always telling us?

From the U.S. government's own statistical abstracts we find the real story:

Mortality from Cancer in the U.S.
year deaths/ 100,000
1967 157.2
1970 162.9
1982 187.3
1987 198.2
1988 198.4
1989 201.0
1990 203.2
1991 204.1
1992 204.1

source: Vital Statistics of the United States, vol.II 1967-1992

1992 is the last year for which data is currently available from Vital Statistics. There is nothing to indicate that there should be any downturn between 1992 and the present. In fact, independent analysis by the CA Journal for Cancer Clinicians, Jan 97, put the 1993 death rate at 220 per 100,000. Does that sound like progress?

Why does nobody know this? Bet you never saw this chart before.

Numbers can be twisted and made to do tricks. This chart is the raw data, not age adjusted or divided by race, or type of cancer. Anyone can dig this information up by going to any library reference section. But try finding a medical reference or journal article or a URL that uses this chart. Try finding a newspaper or magazine article in the last 15 years that uses the raw data. And this data says one thing: more people are dying of cancer now per capita than ever before, and nothing is slowing the increase. Not early detection, not better screenings, not new high tech machines, not radiation, not surgery, and definitely not chemotherapy.

Backtracking a little, in 1900 cancer was practically unheard of in this country. By 1950, there were about 150 cases of cancer per 100,000 population. In 1971, Nixon introduced the War on Cancer, opening the floodgates of massive research funding backed by the government. This situation escalated until by the 1980s, over $50 billion per year was being spent to "find the cure." And yet we have the plain data in the chart above. What is going on?
THE BUSINESS OF CANCER

Industry. Politics. Big money. Health care. Buying and selling. You know - life. More people living off cancer than ever died from it, and that's saying quite a lot since by the 1990s the amount spent for cancer research and treatment had jumped to $80 billion annually. But by this time more than 500,000 deaths per year in the U.S. were attributable to cancer, now second only to heart disease on the list of killer diseases. All this money has not improved the overall chances of survival from cancer even slightly.

Many cancer patients feel they're just a mark, a number, an insurance account. The goal of every visit seems to be running up the bill, not improving their overall health.

The American Cancer Society, for example, collects upwards of $400 million per year. Very little of this money ever finds its way to research. The majority of the money goes into investments and towards administration - lavish salaries and perqs for the Society's officers and employees. A funny thing is that written into the charter of the American Cancer Society is the clause that states that if a cure for cancer is ever found, on that day, the Society will disband. (The Cancer Industry) So think about it - is this an organization that is going to be motivated to find a cure for cancer?

This is the underlying reality, but what do we hear on the surface, coming at us every day from the scripted "reporting" of TV and news publications, or from the lips of the oncologists making their reassuring pronouncements on the outlook for our loved ones' chances of survival? We're "making progress." "Early detection" is giving us a much better chance of "getting it all" by means of immediate surgery or by chemotherapy and radiation. Then after surgery they tell us we need to do chemo to put "the icing on the cake." Frightened to death, and having nowhere else to turn, people have bought this company line for years and years. As a result, they have been dying on schedule. But then, why would people be told the truth? The goal of big money is big money. Finding a cure? Why on earth would anyone want to do that?

But there's a limit to everything, even with the stranglehold on information that is permitted to reach the purview of the general public. More and more of us have watched our parents or our friends die wretched deaths, as all the 'big guns' were pompously wheeled out, with the hospital happily billing the insurance until coverage runs out. And some of us are saying Wait a minute, this isn't about money - this is about my life. And people are deciding to take their chances without standard slash-and-burn protocols, either by just staying home and doing nothing, or else by experimentation with alternative therapies, which have always been there all these years, just below the surface.
CHEMOTHERAPY

Considering chemotherapy? Consider this:

"chemotherapy is basically ineffective in the vast of majority of cases in which it is given"
- Ralph Moss, PhD p81

"Cancer researchers, medical journals, and the popular media all have contributed to a situation in which many people with common malignancies are being treated with drugs not known to be effective."
- Dr. Martin Shapiro UCLA

"despite widespread use of chemotherapies, breast cancer mortality has not changed in the last 70 years"
