Book excerpt: India is a country rich in cultural diversity. One of its most well-known aspects is its vast array of deities and religious practices. Among these, Dhanwantari holds a special place as the god of medicine. The Indian god of medicine, Dhanwantari or Dhanvantari, is a fascinating figure with an interesting story. According to legend, Dhanwantari emerged from the ocean holding a pot of ambrosia, the drink of the gods. He is considered to be the founder of Ayurveda, India's system of traditional medicine. Dhanwantari is revered by Hindus as a healer and physicians often pray to him for guidance in their work. In art, he is often depicted as carrying a conch shell and a discus. Despite his importance in Hindu mythology, relatively little is known about the historical Dhanwantari. However, his influence can still be felt in modern-day India where traditional medicine remains popular. According to Dhanwantari's philosophy, the human body is more than just an anatomical construct; it is also a microcosm of the universe itself. As such, any imbalances in the body can be healed by restoring balance to the cosmos. This is achieved through a variety of methods, including diet, massage, yoga, meditation, and Ayurvedic medicine. Whether practiced by Dhanwantari healers or modern medical practitioners trained in Ayurveda or other holistic traditions, this approach to healthcare represents one of India's most lasting legacies to world culture. In this sense, Dhanwantari healing truly embodies India's dynamic spirit of innovation, grounded as it is in centuries-old tradition and knowledge. Thus, it holds promise not only for addressing individual health issues but also for cultivating greater harmony among people and societies as a whole. In this beginner's guide, we'll talk about the following subtopics about Lord Dhanwantari: ●The origins of Dhanwantari ●The Dhanvantari Mantras ●How do the Dhanvantari mantras work? ●The benefits of the Dhanvantari mantra ●The 6-step guide to starting chanting the Dhanvantari mantras ●Dhanwantari: The God of Ayurveda ●What is Ayurveda? ●The three Doshas ●The 5 ayurvedic treatments ●The benefits of ayurvedic treatment ●Dhanwantari Trayodashi So, read on to learn more about Lord Dhanwantari, the god of medicine in India.

Download or read book Mapping the History of Ayurveda written by K P Girija and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the institutionalisation and refashioning of Ayurveda as a robust, literate classical tradition, separated from the assorted, vernacular traditions of healing practices. It focuses on the dominant perspectives and theories of indigenous medicine and various compulsions which led to the codification and standardisation of Ayurveda in modern India. Critically engaging with authoritative scholarship, the book extrapolates from some of these theories, raising significant questions on the study of alternative knowledge practices. By using case studies of the southern Indian state of Kerala – which is known globally for its Ayurveda – it provides an in-depth analysis of local practices and histories. Drawing from interviews of practitioners, archival documents, vernacular texts and rare magazines on Ayurveda and indigenous medicine, it presents a nuanced understanding of the relationships between diverse practices. It highlights the interactions as well as the tensions within them, and the methods adopted to preserve the uniqueness of practices even while sharing elements of healing, herbs and medicine. It also discusses how regulations and standards set by the state have estranged assorted healing practices, created uncertainties and led to the formation of categories like Ayurveda and nattuvaidyam (indigenous medicine/ayurvedas). Lucid and topical, the book will be useful for researchers and people interested in social medicine, history of medicine, Ayurveda, cultural studies, history, indigenous studies, and social anthropology.

Download or read book History of Indigenous Pharmaceutical Companies in Colonial Calcutta 1855 1947 written by Malika Basu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-01-29 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the context of life and civilization, the pharmaceutical industry is as old as human existence. Since time immemorial India had its own enriched indigenous tradition of medicine. The development of alchemy and its application for human welfare was also an important step in Indian scientific tradition. The present monograph is an innovative attempt to understand the history of the indigenous pharmaceutical companies in Calcutta during the colonial times. Here pharmaceutical companies have been viewed as an illuminating lens to understand the interconnectedness between Indian traditions of thought and Western science and subsequent development of pharmaceutical industry in colonial India. The entire gamut of discussion centres around the issues of medical education, medical services, public health, pharmaceutical profession and politico-economic contexts of the development of pharmaceutical industry in colonial India. Three indigenous pharmaceuticals namely – Butto Krishna Paul & Co., Bengal Chemical & Pharmaceutical Works Limited, and East India Pharmaceutical Works Limited have been studied. The study not only portrays the politico-economic background to the emergence of the pharmaceutical industry in colonial India but links it to the economic nationalism and the quest for self-sufficiency among Indian nationalists and entrepreneurs. The pharmaceutical industry in India can be symbolic of a cultural response to modern science which was to pave the subsequent trajectory of national scientific endeavours in India.
