Book excerpt: : With the advancement in innovation and technology, after many researches and studies modern medicine has emerged recently. Does it mean there were no diseases before modern medicine was introduced? Absolutely not. There have been many ancient ways of managing life style and diseases. Ayurveda being one among them. After understanding that there are many ways how a man can be afflicted with diseases, with the available resources of the ancient times, people practised Ayurveda. Many changes happen around us that may lead to ill health. Right from the food we intake, activities we perform, sort of people we involve with, the seasonal changes, the changes while the day, the changes at night etc. While these changes have an impact over body and its functions, a small change in the life style or diet or exercise also facilitates in balancing the bodily functions accordingly and health can be maintained. Therefore people emerged with few practices accordingly that can benefit maintain over all health. Few such practices have also been passed by the family members to their offspring. But now again with the changing era and differences in belief, it becomes a question as to why are they still to be followed and practised. Current generation needs a thorough understanding of the concept and as they have been under the influence of the modern era and modern understandings of concepts. In the present medicine, where everything is constantly changing and they change it by themselves by doing research on and often, Ayurvedic Principles remain intact and will definitely continue to remain intact. Yes there will be adoption to newer methods of therapy, newer ways of technicality, newer machinery etc, but the principles will remain the same. This book is intended to through some light on such Indian traditional practices which, by default, are considered as just a belief or some myth or some sort of spiritual practice or some sort of personal beliefs as well, which holds no value practically and scientifically. with an intent to make the readers believe that not everything is just for sake of a blind belief but also can be understood them in terms of scientificity and genuine health benefits.

Book excerpt: The present Index of Sanskrit Terms applies to the single-volume unabridged edition (978-1541294714) of the Vedas (Rig, White and Black Yajur, Sama and Atharva). Dictionary definitions are drawn from "A Sanskrit-English Dictionary" by M. Monier-Williams (1899). Four of the translations in the main volume are from Ralph Griffith, with the remaining (black yajur) from Arthur Keith. The texts have been proofed and all Sanskrit terms updated and synced between versions.From the foreword to the main volume: The Vedas (from the root vid, "to know," or "divine knowledge") are the most ancient of all the Hindu scriptures. There were originally three Vedas-the Laws of Manu always speaks of the three, as do the oldest (Mukhya) Upanishads-but a later work called the Atharvaveda has been added to these, to now constitute the fourth. The name Rigveda signifies "Veda of verses," from rig, a spoken stanza; Samaveda, the "Veda of chants," from saman, a song or chant; Yajurveda, the "Veda of sacrificial formulas," from yajus, a sacrificial text. The Atharvaveda derives its name from the sage Atharvan, who is represented as a Prajapati, the edlest son of Brahma, and who is said to have been the first to institute the fire-sacrifices. The complex nature of the Vedas and the array of texts associated with them may be briefly outlined as follows: "The Rig-Veda is the original work, the Yajur-Veda and Sama-Veda in their mantric portions are different arrangements of its hymns for special purposes. The Vedas are divided into two parts, the Mantra and Brahmana. The Mantra part is composed of suktas (hymns in verse); the Brahmana part consists of liturgical, ritualistic, exegetical, and mystic treatises in prose. The Mantra or verse portion is considered more ancient than the prose works; and the books in which the hymns are collected are called samhitas (collections). More or less closely connected with the Brahmanans (and in a few exceptional cases with the Mantra part) are two classes of treatises in prose and verse called Aranyaka and Upanishad. The Vedic writings are again divided into two great divisions, exoteric and esoteric, the former called the karma-kanda (the section of works) and the latter the jnana-kanda (section of wisdom)." (Encyclopedic Theosophical Glossary) The great antiquity of the Vedas is sufficiently proven by the fact that they are written in such an ancient form of Sanskrit, so different from the Sanskrit now used, that there is no other work like them in the literature of this "eldest sister" of all the known languages, as Prof. Max Muller calls it. Only the most learned of the Brahman Pundits can read the Vedas in their original. Furthermore, the Vedas cannot be viewed as singular works by singular authors, but rather as compilations, assembled over a great and unknown period of time. "Almost every hymn or division of a Veda is ascribed to various authors. It is generally believed that these subdivisions were revealed orally to the rishis or sages whose respective names they bear; hence the body of the Veda is known as sruti (what was heard) or divine revelation. The very names of these Vedic sages, such as Vasishtha, Visvamitra, and Narada, all of which belong to men born in far distant ages, shows that millennia must have elapsed between the different dates of their composition." (Encyclopedic Theosophical Glossary) It is generally agreed that the Vedas were finally arranged and compiled around fourteen centuries before our era; but this interferes in no way with their great antiquity, as they are acknowledged to have been long taught and passed down orally, perhaps for thousands of years, perhaps for far longer, before being finally compiled and recorded (the latter is traditionally said to have occurred on the shores of Lake Manasarovara, beyond the Himalayas).
