Dear Guest,

Cervical spondylosis is the most common cause of spinal cord dysfunction in older adults.

I was a sufferer of cervical spondylosis for several years. The MRI and CT scans showed severe narrowing of the spinal canal and my symptoms required constant pain medication. I started doing yoga and started feeling improvement slowly. When all my symptoms were gone over a period of two years I got my repeat MRI done and to my amazement, it was perfectly normal.

We can’t underestimate the benefits of Yoga and Ayurveda for a healthy lifestyle. They both are different sides of the same coin.

In my previous message I had covered my trip to San Francisco to attend the World Congress on Medical Tourism and my speech on how to synergize the medical tourism with Yoga and Ayurveda to achieve better outcome of the medical and /or surgical treatment. One could modify the lifestyle with the knowledge of Ayurveda to prevent illness by keeping mind and body in a state of balance.

People from more than fifty countries have visited our centre so far and it is our vision to bring the Ayurveda to the forefront of the mainstream medicine.

Let this great knowledge and wisdom of sages spread far and wide to benefit the humanity.

In Sanskrit, the term 'yoga' stands for 'union'. A yogi's ultimate aim is to be able to attain this 'union' with the Eternal Self with the help of certain mental and physical exercises. It is often said that Hiranyagarbha (The Cosmic Womb) Himself had originally advocated the traditional system of yoga, from which all other yoga schools have evolved. But for all extant knowledge of yoga and its practices, such as yogasanas and pranayama, the entire credit goes to Maharishi pathanjali .Yoga is a way of life. It is predominantly concerned with maintaining a state of equanimity at all costs. All yoga schools of thought -emphasize the importance of the mind remaining calm, because as the saying goes, only when the water is still can you see through it. Yoga Darshan or yoga philosophy also happens to be a valid discipline of Indian metaphysics (Brahma Vidya). It is the result of human wisdom and insight on physiology, psychology, ethics and spirituality collected together and practiced over thousands of years for the well being of humanity. The basic idea of yoga is to unite the atma or individual soul with the paramatma or the Universal Soul. According to Yoga philosophy, by cleansing one's mind and controlling one's thought processes one can return to that primeval state, when the individual self was nothing but a part of the Divine Self. This is the sense encapsulated in the term samadhi. The aim of the yogi is to be able to perceive the world in its true light and to accept that truth in its entirety. Patanjali systematized the various yogic practices and traditions of his times by encapsulating them in the form of aphorisms in his yogasutra. In this momentous work, he describes the aim of yoga as knowledge of the self.
