 Dr. David Frawley, O.M.D. Buy new or used at Amazon Comprehensive manual to the Ayurvedic system of healing for both layperson and practitioner. Clearly written, lots of information. . .
“Ayurveda, which literally means ‘The Science of Life,’ is the natural healing system of India, its traditional medicine going back to ancient times. It was established by the same great seers and sages who produced India’s original system of Yoga and meditation…
According to Ayurveda, the human being consists of three bodies: the physical, astral, and causal, or what could be called in Western terms the body, mind and soul. Its system of diagnosis and treatment, though focused on the physcial, considers the other two also. Many Ayurvedic methods are ways of correcting disorders in the energy field behind the physical body, as well as the field of consciousness behind it.
Most disease conditions involve both physical and spiritual factors and require treatment on both levels. Ayurveda, traditionally, involves a holistic treatment of the entire human being and out full cosmic nature.
Religion, Spirituality, and Healing
The word ‘God,” for many of us in our culture, often has negative connotations, largely because spiritual truth has been misrepresented by organized and fundamentalist religions…Yet a lack of faith in the Divine, which is something like a lack of faith in life or a positive will to live, is found in many diseases. Disease is often a lack of love, including a lack of caring for oneself and one’s physical body.”
