How The Ayurvedic Medicine Moved To Bulgaria and Became A Phenomenon
Ayurveda - the world medicine
Ayurveda, over the
last few decades, actively has made its way into Europe, while, even before
that, it started to spread in the United States. The differences in the
cultures between the Western world and the East, like religions, view of life,
the way of thinking, render difficulties for the people of the Western
civilization to make sense quickly and entirely of this medicine from India.
However, they adopt it by its effect - in that it has a successful treatment
for each disease.
The contribution of
Ayurveda to the health care was recognized in global scale already in 1985 in designated
UN report through the medical organization of the nations. It originated many
millenniums ago. Ayurveda has been used for the prevention of diseases and for
treatment at least for 5000 years. So, it became a traditional-for-the-East
health science. Today Ayurveda is actively applied in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka,
and the Tibetan and Chinese traditional medicines have developed based on it.
The study and the practice of the classical Ayurveda are a state politics of
India, which supports multiple colleges and universities. The successfully
graduated doctors and therapeutists receive a state license. And the graduation
is not easy at all - to learn to differentiate among the 600 types of pulse
deviations in the diagnosis, the licensed doctor has studied for 10 years.
Ayurveda clinics
today have been developed in Germany, Italy, Ukraine, Russia. In the last
years, they entered in Bulgaria as well, such as Ayurveda Clinic in Bansko
where it is guaranteed that the classical Ayurveda is applied - a licensed team
works there, entirely from Indian doctors and therapeutists. Typical for these
clinics is that they are with luxury accommodation for the patients, with
provided organic food, all-day routine, which is also a model of what the
patient’s lifestyle should be, medical examinations every day, therapies with
original Indian herbs and oils, meditation, yoga exercises. From these clinics,
such as the Ayurveda Clinic in Sofia, authentic Ayurvedic medical products can
be purchased, if the doctor has administered home treatment.
Treatment of the whole body
The phenomenal of the
Ayurveda is that it is not limited to the specific disease that has shown
symptoms. This medicine eliminates the overall health deviations in the body
and restores its complete natural activities. So, the basis for the occurrence
and the development of the disease is eliminated.
The symptoms of the
specific disease are signs, which guide the Ayurvedic doctor to the respective
energy imbalances occurring in the body. For Ayurveda, the body activities are
maintained by three energies, called Doshas. These biological essentials
determine the physiology, psyche, mind; appropriate and harmful types of food; tolerance
to the climatic conditions, predisposition to diseases, etc. All movements - of
the blood, the blinking, the respiration, your thoughts, feelings, etc., are
related to Vata energy. For the transformations - the food digestion, the
metabolism - responsible is Pitta. For the liquids, the consolidation of the
matter, responsible is Kapha. It connects with the immunity, as well as with
the growth. The three energies are assigned by birth and for each person, they
are in a unique balance. In their equilibrium, one or two of them, largely
dominate to certain extent, and this state of balance determines the Dosha of
the man.
If any of the Doshas
- regardless of whether it is a leading Dosha, goes out of balance, this
disrupts certain functions of the body. Furthermore, the variations in one
Dosha usually activate imbalance in the other two, and complex energy disorders
occur. The increase in the Dosha becomes with the wrong lifestyle, which
includes the diet routine, emotional attitude, and excess in the wishes. The
imbalance occurs in a certain principle. It is that the similar increases the
similar things. For the cold Vata Dosha, for example, counter-indicative is the
cold food, and for the hot Pitta - the hot things are counter-indicative
because they would increase them and would destroy the balance. For the same
reason, the cold food is counter-indicative for Kapha. Of course, the given
examples are vague, just for illustration. In the treatment, the Ayurveda
doctor makes up a complete plan that the patient should follow, as he lays down
the motives as well.
