एक अपप्रचार पद्धतशीरपणे करण्यात आला आहे. कि icecream हे उष्ण द्रव्य आहे म्हणून थंडीत खावे.पण कोणीही साधा logical प्रश्न विचारात नाही कि मग हे उन्हाळ्यात कसे चालते ? आपल्या आयुर्वेद शास्त्रानुसार हे अजिबात उष्ण द्रव्य नाही. ते अतिशय थंड आहे. अत्यंत जास्त प्रमाणात पोटात जळजळ असताना मी ते रुग्णांना खाण्यास परवानगी दिली आहे,तेव्हा त्याचा फायदाच झाला आहे. ते दूध व सायीपासून बनवतात कि जे दोन्ही पदार्थ आयुर्वेदानुसार थंडच आहेत. शिवाय त्यावर थंडपणाचीच प्रक्रिया केली जाते म्हणून ते थंड आहे ते थंडीत खाण्यास योग्य नाही. त्यातून ज्यांना फारच उष्णता झाली त्यांना वैद्य ते खाण्यास सांगतील तेव्हा जरूर खावे.

मूलतः स्नान हे उष्ण पाण्यानेच करायला सांगितले आहे. according to text त्याने थकवा जातो, स्नायू वरचा ताण कमी होतो वगैरे. पण प्रत्यक्षात मात्र अनेक लोक थंड पाण्याने अंघोळ करतात त्यांची जर पित्त प्रकृती असेल तर त्यांना कोणताही त्रास होताना दिसत नाही. उन्हाळ्यात त्याहीपेक्षा जास्त लोक थंड पाण्याने स्नान करू शकतात, वात कफ प्रकृती असेल तरी. ताप आल्यावर मात्र गरम पाण्याने अंग पुसून घ्यावे. मुलांचे देखील प्रकृतीवरच अवलंबून आहे,वारंवार सर्दी खोकला होत असता गरम पाणीच वापरावे. डोक्यावरून मात्र कधीही उष्ण पाणी घेवू नये. काही लोकांच्या मते [ग्रंथ ] रक्त व पित्ताच्या आजारात थंड दुधाने स्नान करावे [ आताच्या काळानुसार दुध अंगाला लावून मग गार पाणी घेता येईल ] पण मलाचा चिकटा दूर करण्यास उष्ण पाणी बरे कारण स्निग्ध चिकट भांडे धुवायला सुद्धा आपण गरम पाणीच वापरतो.

चाळीशीनंतर स्वाभाविकच आपला अग्नी कमी होत असतो. पण तो कमी झालाय हे न कळल्यामुळे आपण पहिल्यासारखाच आहार ठेवतो आणि बरेच जणांना मग acidity सुरु होते. ती दुसरे तिसरे काही नसून अपचनाचा प्रकार असतो त्यावर आपण भरमसाठ antacids घ्यायला सुरुवात करतो पण ती कमी न होता वाढत जाते. नैसर्गिक रीत्त्या न पचणारे अन्न पचवण्यासाठी शरीर वरून acid ओतत राहते, पण आधी gas वर ठेवून शिजवणे वेगळे आणि नंतर वरून जळजळीत काहीतरी ओतणे वेगळे त्याप्रमाणेच आधी अग्नी [ पाचक रस ] असणे वेगळे अन नंतर ओतणे वेगळे. त्याने अन्न न पचता उलट जळजळ वाढते antacids काय करणार? ती ते वरचे acid neutralize करतात पण आतला माल तसाच राहतो, रोग्याची तडफड वाढत जाते अन्न बाहेर फेकाण्यावाचून शरीराकडे उपाय राहत नाही. त्यात ते acid असल्याने ती उलटी जळजळीत असते आंबट असते कडुपण असते. आयुर्वेदिक औषधे neurtralisaion ऐवजी पचनावर भर देतात म्हणून they have edge over allopathy. दुसरे व सगळ्यात महत्वाचे म्हणजे लंघन : आहारावर नियंत्रण आणणे त्याने बराचसा problem मिटतो. रात्री बाकी काही करा पण जेवण मात्र कमी ठेवा!

I am not an astrologer but would like to share a view with you all. Man has intelligence which causes him to find out many things which other animals probably do not. He tries to find out his origin where from we come is a common question which we are trying to find out. For ages similarly is to know the universe. It is so vast that the word vast itself is very short.We find a little of the universe still keep on finding it. Similarly to know about tomorrow or future is need of brain not just that of mind.So this is the base of astrology. If it is not completely scientific you have to find out more ways to know accurately thats all, you can not totally discard the present system but try to amend or upgrade it.

On 29 September 2016 I am writing this : These days we are watching viral fever epidemic. people asked me to write on this but couldn't but now managing to write after some effective treatments done. These days people are suffering from pains in different joints small amount of edema whole body pain, knee pain and fevers ranging from 101 to 104. Being new viral ones there is no effective treatment in allopathy as yet. Secondly many are getting long days of pains on above said body parts they are also relieved by ayurveda very well. One Mrs MS suffered from above symptoms along with fever 104 F could not move even out of bed also. we treated her as sandhig jwar as said in ayurvedic texts and got very good results. Better part of the story is she has fewer pains as compared to those who were on allopathy for the same. Rest, small light foods cold water gauge on forehead and many other precautions were taken. Mrs MP 62 had got fever of this kind fever relieved totally by al...

One observation - It would be better to collect certain symptoms or presympytoms of some important diseases like heart attack. Mother of one of my friends was 87 years old and was otherwise fit non diabetic obese lady. She underwent operation for fracture neck femur and was fit to be discharged One night she could not sleep well for whole night felt uneasy, difficulty in respiration she died of severe heart attack causing death within 1.45 hrs in the morning.

Ardhang vayu paralysis hemiplagia - These are common words that are heard in society particularly the second one. These are conditions where motor functions of body are badly affected viz activities of hands, fingers, legs or mouth in particular. At the beginning there is tingling numbness and then follows heaviness in those affected parts of body. Patient feels nirbalatw or loss of power in those parts. A patient at his age of 34 came with more severe presentation. He could not move both his legs and could not rise even a inch from bed numbness was severe. He underwent all investigations but did not find any relief and was suggested to take 5 injections costing 60,000 each; which he did not afford. He had earlier attack with less severity treated by me successfully so approached me to start with ayurvedic line of action. Being very hard traveler he had his vat dosha vitiated. I started a treatment comprising of snehan with medicated oil, and some packets of medicine comprising...

One news reads that a young man was beaten to death following his picking up a minor girl and raping her brutally. There might be different reactions to this some calling humanity many backing this act saying this is the only way to control such incidents. OK but I have something more to say: good governance is utmost important in checking such mentalities. In addition to this there is a need of an atmosphere socially which will have moral binding on people. Now a days nobody is related to or bothered about the society saying what people have to do with my personal life? Society too has nothing to do either and then suddenly when such a rape occurs there is outburst killing the person for don't no whether the offence deserves punishment to death, law taken into hands We should recreate a society to which everybody is answerable. Moral values being followed by all and so on ....

It has been found that the no. of patients of chickungunya is increasing in India today. According to ayurveda it resembles to sandhig jwar. I have found in many cases that patients get relief by primary treatment ayurvedic or allopathic; but the pains of joint, hampered movements and oedema continue to be worst with no relief by other treatments. Ayurveda has a lot to do here, when I treat it considering above diagnosis I find it responds well; the improvement is faster than any other treatment. The use of gold loaded medicines is useful here too.

It is very important to know what gold is to ayurveda A female patient 70 years old has been on my tretment for all complaints & diseases. She had amoebiasis with bleeding 10 years back when she got well in 1 month. I told her that same episode will take 1.5 months to cure as her age has increased from 60 to 70. But to the safer side I added gold combination to her packets of medicines. To surprise of both of us she got well in just 12 days. On her asking I guessed that it must be 'Gold' factor that has worked wonders. She said its my blessings which I denied saying God is the only one who blesses Really God has created ayurveda for all under deep pain & grief

Say no to tobacco A report says that 30% of Indian youth are addictive to tobacco including smoke chew and chew related products. It counts to 10 % of total population! 60% of the addicts have no wish to leave this habit surprisingly. Tobacco has many ruining effects on your body inclusive of heart attacks, mouth cancer, lung cancers, respiratory diseases like asthma cough lung failures.Along with which are acidity, ulcer, vertigo, vomiting, gastric disturbances loss of appetite. Damage to your vision, disturbance to menstrual cycle are some more as per ayurveda. It is not at all difficult to say NO to tobacco. If you divert your mind to some good addictions like yoga music sports spirituality then this is very low level of addiction to you! which you will never look at!! SO SAY NO TO TOBACCO TODAY.

All the while after burning of a girl to coal some new details were added to the story. The first and foremost important thing was the girl was pregnant which dragged the duo mom and the girl to the devil who got furious to take the said action. So another important thing is that teach your daughters not indulge any sexual activity with the lover whatever trustworthy he may be.Though films keep on teaching any damn thing it has always been found that this pre marriage sex proves to be dangerous to fetal in 99 % of the cases. Marry first and then do the needful. For this the society should learn to control over feelings at some point or the other. Normally we try to get what ever we feel greedy about.That becomes the root of many ills & evils So control yar control

After the cruel attack on Mhaskar I wrote yesterday about what we should teach our daughters and sons . It does not end there anyway. In addition to that we need a good system that has command and hold over the situation which will wreck the minds of offenders and will create support in the minds of victims Is it so today? yes and no No cause due to the wild corruption people do not trust on this system. Yes cause sometimes it works my housemaid who had long story of inhuman beating by husband and non receiving of complaints from police, after all managed to see the higher lady cop who attended her and gave a good teaching to her husband - one who was lion at home stood like a stray dog in front of the officer taking nice blows! Let the system work for people at all corners of the world.

Yesterday another girl was set to fire by her so called lover boy. She was brutally taken into kitchen in front of her mother and set on fire to burn to char off her body I strongly condemn this phenomenon. Let us swear such a incidence does not recur in our society anymore. why should we think of such things? Cause a burning house may burn the next What can we do? Empower our daughters to fight all evils of life. En strengthen their minds to revolt ill. Teach our sons to be human beings , not be proud cause they are male.Teach themto accept to control their selves.

Ghatasthapana is 1 st day when hindu households worship of Ma Bhagavati which is done for 9 days. This is the beginning of navaratri. The Goddess is also a symbol of female power. The modern view we should adopt is that we should honor women around us which till today seems to lack in our thought process.

Flying bird I flew in the sky sometimes lazily Sometimes merrily Here and there up & down Feeling my lungs with free & fresh air It were the grains that brought me down to earth Many times many times Some called lazy some ugly some loved Like a love bird Bonded with many All friendly all friendly But bound no to cage Wings taking again & again To open sky Back earth was wounded sometimes Bleeding drops flew in the sky With the whirling winds Two hands always smoothened Attracted to the bonds There are good & bad But not that every fruit is bitter Not every hand is with thorn Love the sky love the earth Everything is just joy joy & joy.

Some thoughts regarding money making. As we all know coin has two sides on the same lines money has 2 sides one is development other is corruption. Today corruption has reached to its optimum level If everybody has right thought regarding making money then only country can do progress & stop corruption Earlier we as an Indian philosophers did not bother about worldly things and would not bother about physical development, so money mending would be seen as sin sometimes. Of course this was general pattern not all inclusive. As era changed we have started to think about money to be God. Corruption was always there but problem is that now it has become acceptable to all.[ Bhrashtachar ha shishtachar zala ahe.] For development without corruption, personal thoughts should become national. One should work hard get money for himself & the country. It should not be blended with greed or jealousy. Jodonitya dhan uttam vyavahare as sant Tukaram has said centuries back. Youth would know ...

It is rasayan dravy or you can call it as general tonic. It is rich in vitamin C which does not deplete much after drying it. So dry fruit powder is also effective.

Ayurvedic medicines\ food items that help decrease acidity There are so many food items & medicines that help decrease acidity. Food items –Avala or embelic myrobalan or indian goosberry Avala is main food item to reduce acidity.

Regular latrine is key to eradication of many digestive disorders.

Cucumber May 17, 2010 Ayurveda has described Cucumber which is commonly known as kakadi in marathi & hindi . It is very useful in these summer days. Like gourds it could be planted by seeds. It spread as a creeper. It is available readily in the market in different species, one from maval known as mavali kakadi is more palatable. Cucumber is used as a fruit vegetable in regular diet as salad or sabji but it is more effective when eaten raw. It is very cool in nature It cools your body from inside as well as outside so when you eat one in summer you feel cooool. Another important thing is it helps digestion. It particularly helps digestion of gahu, maka, tur ,mug and some other protinous foods. This digestion is caused by seeds inside it. Due to high percentage of water in it Cucumber helps in free urine flow so is used in patients of urinary infection ...

Acidity leading to Ulcers Acidity is a very common problem all over the world It is more common in middle aged persons both male & female. People have been found to take antacids for years together which gives a symptomatic type of relief to the patients As the disease has not been treated from root it causes further damage leading to ulcers. But there are certain conditions which can not be titled as full proven ulcers but are troublesome like ulcer only. These conditions are due to erosion of gastric or duodenal mucosa. Such patients do not respond to ayurvdic medicines meant for acidity or amlpitta as it is called there. It needs to be taken as ulcers only. It is where we at keshava clinic treat it as erosion and not just acidity. So we articulate 4 steps 1.acidity 2.erosion 3.ulcer 4.perforation. All the 4 phases differ in there treatment and have very thin line of differentiation from one to another excluding perforation which needs intensive care. We find it easy to tre...

Keshav Ayurveda chikitsalay This is a chikitsalaya or a clinic run by Dr Prasad Phatak for last 20 years. It is located in heart of the Pune city of India.

unripe mango kachha am It is very good for the symptoms produced by excessive heat.Like feeling hot, perspiring, weakness etc. When you come back home from hot summer just sip kaccha am ka panha and you will not be affected by the outside heat. If a patient loses appetite , kachha am will mark fast recovery It is good for lack of salivation also achar or pickle has similar effects but long term regular use of it causes acidity

This yam is differant from that yama. Rather this helps keep the other away! As stated earlier yam is first part of yoga. To obey yam you have certain things to do. these are ahinsa saty astey bramhachary aparigraha. First 2 have been picked up by mahatmaji as way of life [and disposed by his discapples!] ahinsa- non violence by action and mind saty-truthfulnes. some have even lost everything for truth.[raja harischandra has been example of mascari now] asteya no stealing. Corruption is also a way of stealing. bramhacharya does not mean no sex but controlled sex with your dharma permitted partner wife\husband. Gay can not be dharma permitted partner aparigraha no gifts to be accepted from anybody

Amrfal 30\4\10 That is amba [ we are eating just now ? ] It is a great gift of nature. When it is hot everywhere and our body needs energy & strength amba is the best. It supplies our body with vital power along with sex power which is depleting these days.[ As it is not irritating it gives proper and long term effects. ] though it is snigdh it is good to our heart. It also improves skin quality : luster & complexion. It contains vitamin A B D in good amount. It has citric acid in small amount [ you get it more in Limbu ] If it ripes on the tree it is much better than powder ripen fruits. It increases kaf & pitt dosha If eaten above your capacity will be hot to body will increase acidity many a times causes dysenry [atisar] see you again

For total health one needs physical as well as mental health. Astang yoga provides you with both. But it is more oriented to mental settlement Ayurveda always gives emphasis on total health which includes well being of a human body,its organs of senses and activity, mind, and spirit. Of course spiritual well being is not easily sought just by exercise or body fitness but needs meditation or knowledge. Prasad

Ashtang yoga has 8 parts. It is meant for purification of mind. These are certain things that help to purify but it is a long process. One has to try again and again. But though you have not reached complete purification,the process also gives us happiness The 8 angas are [of yoga]- yam niyam asan pranayam pratyahar dhyan dharana samadhi
