Only our Best Indigenous Treatment system can Cure Diseases

Highlighting human body, Goswami Tulsidas Jee wrote in the Ramcharitmanas that ‘bade bhag manush tana pawa’, while great poet Kalidas penned down that ‘shariramadyam khalu dharmasadhanam’ means that it’s human body which is the best source of religion. Kalidas treated the body as the first source of religious behaviour. It means that if we believe in religion and say ourselves religious, then it’s our first duty to keep the body healthy. It’s said that ‘pahala sukh nirogi kaya’ and it’s also true that only healthy people can enjoy this precious life. Health is essential not only for a particular person but also for the overall development of the nation. No country in the world can prosper without good health of citizens. We have seen during corona period that how did a virus stall development? Therefore, all the countries continued to express concern over the health of their citizens. Because they knew that if the pandemic wreaks havoc, the country will lag behind in the various fields.

A tiny virus caused a deadly disease like corona which continued to spread. But today, the people fall prey to diseases due to their wrong lifestyle and dietary habits. In fact, the people pay no attention to their health and when their body starts suffering from diseases, then they feel that good health is the precious thing in life. Now the question arises that what's good health? Is it available at medical store, hospital, nursing home, medical college, etc? In fact, no other treatment system except naturopathy and ayurved defines good health. Allopathy and homoeopathy doctors consider lack of disease as the health. In the modern treatment system, there are certain parameters like heartbeat, blood pressure, weight as per length or age, hemoglobin quantity, etc to check whether someone is sick or not. Tests of hundreds of types of blood and urine and other limitations have been fixed. The people are diagnosed with diseases on the basis of those tests. It means that the diseases can be confirmed on the basis of those tests. But these tests can’t confirm health. Defining health in ayurved, the Sushrut Sanhita says—

Samadoshah samagnishch samadhatumalakriyah I
Prasannatmendriyamanah swastha ityabhidhiyate II

It means that those people whose three dosh- rheumatism, bile and cough- are same, appetite is in equilibrium, seven dhatu juice, blood, flesh, med, bone, bone marrow and semen are in proper proportion, urination and defecation are in proper, 10 sense organs like eye, nose, ear, skin, rasna, hand, leg, tongue, anus, mind and soul are happy, etc must be called healthy. Most of the people consider visiting specialist doctors and paying higher fees and consuming costly medicines as parameters of the best treatment. The modern treatment system has convinced them that some of the diseases can’t be eradicated. They started believing that they should consume medicines forever to control the level of diseases. They give priority to the report delivered by the pathology. The people define it as the good treatment system. In fact, such people are unaware of good health, the best treatment system and useful medicines. Kindness must be showered on them at a time when Param Pujya Swami Jee Maharaj and Shradheya Acharyashri are trying hard to provide good health to the people through yog, ayurved and naturopathy. In fact, good health, a good treatment system and good medicines don’t mean getting rid of diseases instead of building a healthy body. But most of the people get deviated from the path of aim of health due to the modern treatment system. However, allopathic medicines give instant relief and it should be consumed during accidental treatment. But regular consumption of allopathic medicines to check diseases like thyroid, diabetes, blood pressure, arthritis, asthma, etc is a dangerous indication. It’s an alarming situation when the people search for health at medical stores and hospitals.

However, treatment available in the modern treatment system for checking chronic diseases gives no satisfaction to any stakeholder (doctor or patient) except pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, when both the doctors and the patients are dissatisfied, then why do the people not adopt other alternatives? For the last few years, young people have started falling prey to diseases due to the wrong lifestyle. Some people have been suffering from hereditary diseases. Even super specialist doctors fail to cure them. Therefore, concerned over their profession, these doctors start searching for an alternative. Because, despite spending a hefty amount, the people fail to get relief from the diseases. Therefore, the entire world prefers yog, ayurved and naturopathy to allopathy for better health. Certainly, credit goes to Param Pujya Swami Jee Maharaj and Shradheya Acharyashri who presented this subject before the people authentically. Today, doctors of Harvard and Stanford Universities talk about yog, ayurved and naturopathy. It’s another matter that some foolish people term these specialists as quacks. Such dullness and prejudice of some of the people prove dangerous for our nation. We have seen disputes created over coronil during corona period. The people of India and abroad were concerned over corona infection. There was no ray of hope for checking this virus during lockdown. Given the worldwide impact of the deadly virus, the people expressed concern. Because the country has poor healthcare facilities in comparison to population density. Meanwhile, credit goes to Param Pujya Swami Jee and Patanjali Yogpeeth for overcoming this vicious cycle. However, some people opposed coronil due to political and business reasons, it safeguarded the people from the virus. Coronil kit instilled self confidence in the people. Today, herd immunity developed in them. Apart from it, they are being administered with vaccines. But at the same time, alternative medicines based on giloya, tulsi, ashwagandha, neem, etc can provide better health to the people in the country like India where around 70 percent of the population resides in the village. Ayurved is made of two Sanskrit words ‘ayush means ‘life’ and ‘ved’ means ‘science’. Ayurved is the oldest treatment system in the world. It means ‘science of life’. Similarly, naturopathy is not only a treatment system but also a life system because nature itself is the largest therapy system. In naturopathy, the entire body of the patient is overhauled instead of curing disease. This is a medicine less treatment system, because the common rules and regulations of nature are given priority. In India, there are various other treatment systems which are becoming unpopular with the passage of time. These systems are beneficial. They have no side effects. Let’s know about such alternative treatment systems in brief.

Naturopathy

Naturopathy is a unique system through which the people are cured at physical and mental level. Today, due to a busy lifestyle, most of the people fail to take breakfast, lunch and dinner properly. Apart from it, distance from nature is also the reason behind people falling sick. In this treatment system, proper diets are given priority instead of consumption of outer medicines. This system is based on panch mahabhut like soil, water, sunlight, air and sky. Apart from proper diets and daily routine, shuddhi karm, water therapy, soil patti, various types of bath, massage, etc are adopted to cure diseases. Naturopathy gives the message that we can attain good health through observing fast apart from disciplined daily routine. There is no better place in comparison to Yogagram in the world.

Yog therapy

Patanjali Yogpeeth plays an important role in making yog therapy popular in the world. In Yog treatment science, health doesn’t mean sound mind and body. It means the way of functioning of internal energy. Shradheya Swami Jee has made this treatment system simple. Anybody can be healthy and disease-free by doing eight pranayam and some particular regular exercises. There are various types of yog therapy like ashtang yog, hath yog, bhakti yog, laya yog, mantra yog, dhyan yog, etc.

Yagya therapy

Yagya therapy is a totally scientific treatment system. The people have been performing vedic daily routine with hawan, yagya, agnihotra, etc to cure diseases since time immemorial in the Indian culture. During hawan-yagya, we burn mango wood, chant mantra and offer herbal medicines to the fire. According to research, burning mango wood creates aldehyde which kills dangerous virus and bacteria and purifies the atmosphere. The research also says that if the people come in contact with smoke of hawan for half an hour, bacteria causing typhoid disease gets killed. The people who perform hawan get benefit.

Acupuncture and acupressure

Most of the people consider both the processes as similar. But there is a slight difference between both the processes. Acu is a Chinese word which means point. There are many points in our body from head to sole of legs.  If the patients are cured by puncturing on these points through a needle, the process is called acupuncture, while when we exert pressure on these points through a hand or sharp item, the process is called acupressure. However, both the processes provide similar benefits to the people who can get rid of various types of diseases. These processes are highly beneficial to check severe pain. This system is also effective in treating headache, diabetes, sinus, shoulder and backache, arthritis, indigestion, tension, sleeplessness, joint pain, etc.

Sun therapy

The sun is the reservoir of health and vital energy. The people can be protected from diseases through sun therapy. Vitamin D boosts bone in the body which can absorb calcium due to its proper quantity. Sunlight in the morning is a good and natural source of Vitamin D. The people can get rid of depression by offering water to the rising sun. Moreover, performing the tratak method while watching the sun in the morning boosts eyesight. In the Atharvaved, sunlight bath is considered as the best way to keep the heart healthy. It’s said that the doctor visits those houses where the sunlight doesn’t enter. Insecticides develop in the dark places. In the morning, the sun rays shower many nutritious elements. Therefore, rising in brahma muhurta before the sunrise is considered the best. Surya namaskar is the best cardio-vascular exercise. The coordination of 12 powerful yogasan balances both the body and the mind.

Colour therapy

Colour therapy or sun rashmi therapy is also a type of the sun therapy. The sunlight consists of seven colours like orange, indigo, blue, green, yellow, red and purple. These colours have separate nature. They are effective in treating various diseases and keeping the people healthy. Our body organ reflects the same colour which it has in majority, for example, hair is black, while blood is red. In this therapy, water is kept in a bottle of different colour for 8-9 hours. Then it’s used to get relief from diseases. For example, if someone has low blood, he/she will need red colour.

Water therapy

The human body is made of five elements. Around three fourth of the human body is water. Therefore, the water plays an important role in keeping the body healthy. The water holds great medicinal value. Water therapy is undertaken to cure various types of diseases. Under the water therapy, use fresh water to take bath for better health. Taking bath in the rivers and the kunds on auspicious occasions like kumbh is the natural form of the water therapy. In this therapy, apart from kunjar and neti method, anima, vapour bath, kati bath, foot bath, etc play an important role.

Massage therapy

Massage emanates from Greek word ‘massiar’ which means entwine. Massage therapy boosts blood circulation. Today, there is a great demand for this therapy. Facial massage to full body massage is available at the massage parlors. The mothers use mustard oil to massage small babies. The wrestlers also get their body massaged. Moreover, apart from mustard oil, olive oil, til oil, coconut oil, etc are used in this therapy.

Air therapy

Fresh, pure and clean air is essential for better health. We need pure oxygen in the adequate quantity to keep our cells of the body healthy. Therefore, you along with your family members should visit pollution-free and clean atmosphere. Earlier, the people used to visit parks to celebrate the weakened. Now, air conditioned shopping malls and multiplex culture replaced it. This culture has an adverse impact on health. Doing regular pranayama is considered as the best way for air therapy.

Mud therapy

Earth is one of the five mahabhut. It’s also called soil which is anti-bacterial. The soil helps the body excrete heterogeneous elements. The human being can remain by coming in contact with soil. Mud therapy plays an important role in treating skin diseases. Soil patti and soil bath are the chief ingredients of the mud therapy.

Silent therapy

Silence is the vital energy of life. Silence is a great medium to know and experience himself. Silence means absence of mind. Those people who observe silence get happiness, peace and prosperity. Meditating for a few hours removes tension and depression in the human being. Silence is the great tool of checking anger. Today, we can’t keep silent for a few moments. Brain as well as speech remain active. We remain engaged on the phone, in the meeting and with family members. Our mind continues to hold dialogue while chatting on social sites. It has an adverse impact on sleeping quality. Therefore, the people should meditate and observe silence for a few moments to boost physical energy and concentration.

The reason behind writing this is that the medicines should be replaced with body for better health. At present, we use our body in less quantity and enjoy electronic gadgets, OTT platforms and online games, etc. That’s why today, a 20-year-old boy is unable to work hard. Earlier, even 60-year-old people used to do it easily. We have to understand the importance of health and convince the new generation about it. For this, apart from natural lifestyle, regular yog exercise is the best way. Give priority to naturopathy and ayurved. Despite this, if you fail to recover from diseases, then consult an allopathic doctor either for medicines or surgery.

A poet has rightly written ‘kadre sehat marij se puchho, tandurusti hajar niyamat hai’. Therefore, adopt health instead of disease.
