Our Philosophy
Embracing the Timeless Wisdom of Ayurveda
At IVAC, we honour Ayurveda as a living tradition—a sacred science of life that nurtures the harmony of mind, body, and spirit. Rooted in principles that have guided humanity for millennia, our approach is thoughtfully personalized to recognize the unique constitution of each individual. By blending authentic Ayurvedic practices with gentle modern insights, we create a haven where healing transcends the physical and illuminates the soul.
A Vision Rooted in Tradition and Compassion
“True healing arises when we align ourselves with the rhythms of nature and the wisdom of ancient traditions.”
—Dr Talavane Krishna
Growing up in a humble village in Karnataka, I witnessed firsthand the challenges of accessing medical care. My mother’s ailments and the arduous journeys to fetch a doctor ignited a deep desire within me to serve others through healing. Guided by my spiritual mentor, Sri Ranga, I embraced both modern medicine and the profound teachings of Ayurveda.
After decades as a pediatric anesthesiologist abroad, personal health challenges led me back to the roots of Ayurveda and yoga. This return to ancient practices not only restored my well-being but also reignited my passion to make Ayurveda accessible to all. In 1999, this vision manifested as the Indus Valley Ayurvedic Centre—a place where authentic healing traditions flourish.
The Spiritual Foundation of IVAC
Inspired by the Teachings of Sri Ranga
Our foundation is deeply embedded in the wisdom imparted by Dr Talavane Krishna’s guru, Sri Ranga. His profound understanding of Vedic culture and Ayurveda continues to guide our mission. At IVAC, we strive to honuor his legacy by not only providing treatments but also empowering individuals to embrace a balanced and harmonious life.
