योग और आयुर्वेद में समानताएं (Similarities between yoga and Ayurveda).....

जैसा कि हम जानते हैं कि आयुर्वेद जीवन का विज्ञान है जो लंबी उम्र की समस्याओं से निपटता है, और हमारे स्वास्थ्य को प्रभावित करने वाली बीमारियों से छुटकारा पाने के लिए एक सुरक्षित, सौम्य और प्रभावी तरीका सुझाता है। आयुर्वेद को पाँचवाँ वेद माना जाता है और भारत में हजारों वर्षों से प्रचलित है। वेदों में औषधीय पौधों और उनकी उपयोगिता का व्यापक रूप से वर्णन किया गया है; विशेष रूप से अतहरवेद में। 

[Connection b/w Yoga & Ayurveda]

आयुर्वेद को समझने के लिए जरूरी है कि हमें इसके मूल सिद्धांतों का अच्छा ज्ञान होना चाहिए।आयुर्वेद को अस्तित्व में सबसे पुराना उपचार विज्ञान माना गया है, जो अन्य सभी की नींव रखता है। बौद्ध धर्म। ताओवाद, तिब्बती और अन्य सांस्कृतिक दवाओं में आयुर्वेद के समान समानताएं हैं। आयुर्वेद की व्यक्तिगत उपचार विधियों के रहस्यों को भारत में संरक्षित किया गया था।

सतर्क व्यक्ति अब यह पूछ सकता है कि आयुर्वेद इतना महत्वपूर्ण क्यों है, इसका व्यापक रूप से पूरे विश्व में अभ्यास नहीं किया जाता है। यह एक वैध प्रश्न है, जिसका समान रूप से मान्य उत्तर यह है कि आयुर्वेद, सभी वैदिक दर्शन की तरह, सनातन धर्म की मान्यता का पालन करता है, या हर चीज को उसके उचित समय और स्थान पर स्वीकार करता है, और कुछ भी अस्वीकार नहीं करता है। दवाओं के सभी पहलू उपयोगी हो सकते हैं, लेकिन आवश्यकता पड़ने पर उचित उपचार का उपयोग किया जाना चाहिए। यही कारण है कि आयुर्वेद आधुनिक चिकित्सा को भी अस्वीकार नहीं करता है।

यह बहुत बार देखा गया है, आधुनिक दवाएं भी कई टॉनिक, मल्टीविटामिन टैबलेट, और अन्य प्रतिरक्षा-बढ़ाने वाली दवाओं की सिफारिश करती हैं जो कुल जड़ी-बूटियों से बनाई जाती हैं, न कि निकाले गए अल्कलॉइड के साथ। क्या यह वैश्विक स्वीकृति नहीं है? आपने देखा है, कि आधुनिक दवाओं के कई डॉक्टर मरीज को डायबिटीज और कोलेस्ट्रॉल आदि की दवा लेने के साथ-साथ मॉर्निंग वॉक की सलाह देते हैं। आप में से कई लोगों ने भी सुना है कि आधुनिक दवाओं के डॉक्टर मरीज को लंच और डिनर के बाद गर्म पानी पीने की सलाह देते हैं? गर्म पानी पीना आयुर्वेद के आहार सिद्धांतों का एक हिस्सा है। ये वैश्विक स्वीकृति के ही संकेत हैं।

अब बात करते हैं योग की। मैं आपको बताना चाहूंगा कि योग और आयुर्वेद एक दूसरे के पूरक हैं। आयुर्वेद और इसके विपरीत योग का अभ्यास नहीं किया जा सकता है। बल्कि हम कह सकते हैं कि योग का आयुर्वेद के साथ बहुत गहरा संबंध है जैसे हम 'क्यू' का उच्चारण करते हैं। जब हम "क्यू" का उच्चारण करते हैं, तो स्वत: रूप से 'यू' का उच्चारण एक साथ किया जाएगा, इसका मतलब है कि हम इसके अंत में यू का उच्चारण किए बिना क्यू का उच्चारण नहीं कर सकते हैं। योग की आयुर्वेद के समान स्थिति है, और इसे अलग से पहचाना नहीं जा सकता। योग भी आयुर्वेद के समान मूल सिद्धांतों का पालन करता है। 

मैं एक और उदाहरण रख सकता हूं। मान लीजिए कि आधुनिक दवाओं के डॉक्टर मरीज में किसी बीमारी का निदान करना चाहते हैं। वह दवाओं के नुस्खे के साथ कुछ लैब टेस्ट भी लिखेंगे। दवाएं एक फार्मास्युटिकल कंपनी में निर्मित होती हैं और कर्मचारियों के पास बी. फार्मा डिग्री या समकक्ष या रसायन विज्ञान है लेकिन डॉक्टर नहीं है। लैब तकनीशियन द्वारा विश्लेषण किया गया रक्त परीक्षण डॉक्टर नहीं करता है। एक्स-रे और अल्ट्रासाउंड एक बी.एस.सी. डिग्री या समकक्ष द्वारा किया गया था। रेडियोलॉजी तकनीशियन और रेडियोलॉजिस्ट द्वारा अनुमोदित किया गया। कई पैरामेडिकल स्टाफ द्वारा की गई सामूहिक कार्रवाई और फिर से रोगी के इतिहास (medical history) और अंतिम निष्कर्ष पर उसी डॉक्टर के पास आती है जो दवाएं लिखता है। 

मेरी राय में, योग भी आयुर्वेद के लिए पैरामेडिकल स्टाफ की तरह काम करता है और चिकित्सकों द्वारा निदान किए गए किसी भी विकार के इलाज में समान भूमिका निभाता है।जैसा कि हम जानते हैं कि पिछले दशकों से आम लोगों की जीवनशैली में भी कई बदलाव देखे गए हैं और वे हमेशा कम से कम साइड इफेक्ट के साथ इलाज के लिए जाने की कोशिश करते हैं और इस स्थिति में आयुर्वेद और योग की कोई तुलना नहीं है।और अब यह देखा गया है कि अधिकांश देश आयुर्वेद और इसकी अनूठी उपचार पद्धति को स्वीकार कर रहे हैं और इस प्रकार निस्संदेह, आयुर्वेद के पास दवा का भविष्य सुरक्षित होने वाला है और इसे विश्व स्तर पर स्वीकार किया जाएगा।

 

Very soon Ayurveda will also become a global phenomenon like yoga....

As we know that the Ayurveda is a science of life that deals with the problems of longevity, and suggests a safe, gentle, and effective way to rid diseases afflicting our health. Ayurveda is regarded as the fifth Veda- by its virtue-and has been practiced in India for thousands of years, Medicinal plants and their utility are widely described in the Vedas; especially in Athar Veda. To understand Ayurveda, it is necessary that we should have a good knowledge of its basic principles. 

Ayurveda has been considered the oldest healing science in existence, forming the foundations of all others. Buddhism. Taoism, Tibetan, and other cultural medicines have very similar parallels to Ayurveda. the secrets of Ayurveda's individualized healing methods were preserved in India. 

The alert person may now ask, why if Ayurveda is so important, it is not widely practiced all over the world. This is a valid question, which has an equally valid answer. Ayurveda, like all Vedic philosophy, adheres to the belief of Sanatan Dharma, or accepting everything in its appropriate time and place, and rejecting nothing. All aspects of medicines may be useful, but the appropriate treatment must be used when required. This is why Ayurveda does not reject modern medicine.

 

It has been seen very often, the modern medicines also recommend many tonics, multivitamin tablets, and other immune-boosting drugs that are made from total herbs, not with an extracted alkaloid. Is this not a global acceptance? Have you ever seen, many doctors of modern medicines advise the patient to morning walk along with taking medicine for diabetes and cholesterol etc.. many of you have ever heard that modern medicines doctors advise the patient to drink hot water after lunch and dinner? Drinking hot water is a part of the food principles of Ayurveda. These are the sign of global acceptance only. 

Now let's discuss Yoga. I would like to tell you that Yoga and Ayurveda are complementary to each other. Yoga cannot be practiced without Ayurveda and vice -versa. Rather we can say that YOGA has a very strong affinity with AYURVEDA just like we pronounce 'Q".  When we pronounce "Q", automatically 'U' will be pronounced together it means we cannot pronounce Q without pronouncing U at the last of this alphabet. Yoga has the same position as Ayurveda, and it can't be recognized separately. Yoga also following the same fundamental principles of Ayurveda.

I can put another example. Suppose, modern medicines doctors wish to diagnose a disease in the patient. He or she will write some lab tests along with medicines prescription. The medicines are manufactured in a Pharmaceutical company and the staff has B. Pharma degree or equivalent or Chemistry but not a doctor. The blood test analyzed by the lab technician is not a doctor. the X-rays and ultrasound were done by a B.Sc. radiology technician and approved by a radiologist. The collective action performed by many paramedical staff and again correlate with the history of the patient and come to conclusion at the final to the same doctor who prescribes the medicines.  In my opinion, Yoga also works like paramedical staff for Ayurveda and plays an equal role in treating any disorders diagnosed by the Physicians.

As we know that from the last decades, many changes have been seen in the lifestyle of the common people also and they always trying to go for treatment with the least side effects and in this situation, there is no alternative found safe as like Ayurveda and Yoga and now it has been seen that most of the country is accepting Ayurveda and its unique treatment methodology and thus no doubt, the medicine future is going to be secure in the had of Ayurveda and will be accepted globally.   

Health benefits of root tuber of Momordica dioica....

Momordica dioica belongs to the family Cucurbitaceae has many vernacular names in India. It is called as Dhar-karela, Khekasi Golkankara (Hindi); Vahisa (Sanskrit); Kankarol (Bengali); Aegarvalli (Tamil). This is a climbing creeper found distributed all over India. It is also called a sweet bitter gourd. Or Jangali Bitter gourd. This is also called a rainy season vegetable. Root tuber and fruits are medicinally important. Due to this farmers now started their cultivations. 

[Momordica dioica root tubers]

Many people are very familiar with its raw fruits and enjoyed the cooked tasty vegetables but have you ever hear the root tuber of this plant is very important and is used as traditional medicines since the time of civilizations. 

Roots of the male creepers are applied in the form of paste to scorpion-sting and to ulcers caused by snake-bites. Mucilaginous root tubers of the female creepers are used in the form of electuary in doses of 1 or 2 drachms. in case of bleeding piles, similar bowel affections, and urinary complaints.  

It also acts as an expectorant. The root is pasted and applied over the body as a sedative in fevers. Powder of the root applied on the skin renders it soft and supple and lessens perspiration. 

Ayurveda impact on Indian economy.....

Ayurveda, the science of life is a very ancient science that practically involves the principles of constituents of the body and treating the same by correcting the disorders. Ayurveda never recommends anything like a disease but is a disorder that might be imbalances of tri-dosha i.e. Vata, Kapha, and pitta disturbances of the body or hormonal imbalances but Ayurveda considers the hormonal disbalance also the causal factor to the tri-dosa only. As per Ayurveda, if people maintain their routine lifestyle as per the principles quoted in the shastras, the textbook of Ayurveda i.e.Niyam (Rules) and Saiyam (Regulation), man becomes Shatayu (means a person normally can live 100 years) or more than that. But nowadays luxurious life making us lethargic and lazy too. Even people very hardly going to morning walk that also after strict advice of the doctors. When a doctor told if we do not do exercise, many complications will be started then only people considering their health that is also very lesser. 

[Raw drugs to prepare Ayurvedic medicine]

No doubt, Ayurveda has gained popularity from the beginning of civilization and has been practicing many countries because its treating methodology means not suppressing disease but eliminating it from the roots and correcting causal factors so that the recurrence of the disease may not happen. 

As the Ayurveda is part of the Indian System of Medicines and is being practiced along with the Ayush system but it has its own attraction in curing of disease. Involvement of Ayurveda in human life all over the world has been seen since Covid - 19 pandemic, when it was declared that there was no vaccine or preventive measures to control corona that time the Ayurveda was only the support to teach the people how to come across the trouble of respiratory disease by teaching Anulom-Vilom, Pranayam, kapal - bhati, etc and it has given more effective treatment in the form of churn, avaleha, kadha, etc and that won the trust of people due to its positive effects. 

In fact, now every house in India is equipped with various forms of medicines that belong to the Ayurvedic System only. People also have more trust in Ayurveda in comparison to other systems of medicines due to its unique treatment methodology. The demands of Ayurvedic medicine increasing day by day, so, no doubt, in the future, Ayurveda will be highly profitable in the case of the economy in India.    

Ayurvedic product to improve singing quality of voice.....

There are many medicines that are being practiced to make the singer's voice lovely and pretty so that it can attract many audiences. Passion makes man-made sometimes it has been seen when daily rehearsal (Riyaz)  not worked to correct harsh and heavy voice, then people opt for vocal card surgery too. But it is very dangerous, most of the vocal card surgery is unable to return even the formerly existed voice. Now the question is why we make such a risk that creat life long problem to us better to select easily with to improve our voice and make fit for singing all types of songs. 

Although, many pharmaceutical companies claiming that after consuming their products the voice will be correct but I have not seen such progress as I am directly and deeply involved with Ayurveda and has solved many complaints and illnesses. Selling a product is a marketing strategy but whether it works or not it can be seen after consuming the products with a prescribed medicine course.

No, pharmaceutical companies and doctors will take guarantees to give a hundred percent cure. Here we have to think twice before starting any course. I am a person who is fully dedicated to deal with products of Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, Homeopathy, and Yoga & Naturopathy. You must not surprise, I have been recognized as a good singer too. and I have currently started my youtube channel in the name of "Dr. Prem Dutt Dwivedi' 

I have the best remedy for the people who are seeking an opportunity in singing but are upset due to their voice problems. I would like to disclose here two herbs very frequently used in Ayurveda especially to correct singer voices. 1. Small Galangal -   Small Galangal is known as Chhota Kulanjan in Hindi and in English, it is called Thai ginger or Siamese ginger (because it resembles fresh ginger so much). It is commonly found in India, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Scientifically it is known as Alpinia officinarum; the family Zingiberaceae. The underground stem (rhizome) is used to make medicine. People use Alpinia for fevers, muscle spasms, intestinal gas, bacterial infections, and swelling (inflammation). Though the scientific evidence of its uses is still under study it is being used as folk medicine since ancient times. The same, I have taken and practically found working, so, I can recommend to others.

2. Other herbs are Liquorice or licorice is the common name of Glycyrrhiza glabra, a flowering plant of the bean family Fabaceae. The dried roots and mature stem cuttings are readily available in the market in the name of Mulethi or Yashti Madhu. This herb has been traditionally used to treat many diseases, such as respiratory disorders, hyperdipsia, epilepsy, fever, sexual debility, paralysis, stomach ulcers, rheumatism, skin diseases, hemorrhagic diseases, and jaundice.

[Glycyrrhiza glabra - dried root]

I have made the introduction and quality of both aforesaid herbs. How it works? Yes, The Alpinia officinarum roots have anti-inflammation, antibacterial, and muscle spasm properties. that can help in the continuous strains of the vocal cord as well as protect it from infection and inflammation. The Glycyrrhiza glabra dried stem cutting or root pieces will make the tissue soft in the buccal cavity and vocal card and may produce voice without disturbances.

How will be taken? Yes, If you are continuously doing singing rehearsal (Riyaz), it will work very fast. (This should be noted, any person who already has a heavy voice should not do Riaz for AA, OO, MM (OUM) because it makes more heavy voice again. A person who have already heavy voice directly can practice singing under the supervision of his/her teacher/Master/Guru.) How use this above-said herb? Yes, this is important. Before two hours of riyaz or rehearsal, first, take a small piece of Galangal (about one inch) put in the mouth and just take saliva mixing with the juice (Please do not chew nor swallow)  Now, take one pinch of salt and warm water and gargle to clear sticky or thicky substances of the mouth, immediate after gargle, drink a tumbler about 200 ml hot water and then take a one-inch piece of Mulethi and keep in your mouth and use its juice extracted in the mouth with the help of saliva.

Before started singing, remove the mulethi from the mouth and sing a song as your wish on a high or low note.  Please do not run behind any medicines, it will not work in turn it gives many side effects too.     

Stay healthy, stay safe...
