Lavanya ayurvedic hospital and research center approaches all the three dimensions of treatment based on Ayurveda i.e. |
|
- Yukti Vyapashraya for the treatment of body/Physique
- Satvavajaya for the treatment of mind/Mental Faculties
- Daiv Vyapashraya for the treatment of soul/Spiritual Faculties
Ayurveda recognizes three levels of therapies - rational, psychological and spiritual. Rational therapy is mainly for the treatment of physical diseases by physical treatment methods. Psychological therapy is for calming the mind and emotions and includes meditation. Spiritual therapy consists of yogic and occult methods to counter the effects of karma that prevent ordinary physical and psychological treatments from working.
1. Rational or objectively planned therapy - Yukti Vyapashraya
2. Psychological therapy - Sattvavajaya
3. Spiritual therapy - Daiva Vyapashraya
Western medicine recognizes only a kind of rational therapy, the treatment of bodily conditions by objectively verifiable medicines. Ayurveda considers such an approach to be useful but incomplete, only one part of medicine. Without considering the role of the mind and of karma, we can neither understand nor properly treat the majority of diseases, which have subjective causes and complications.
Some scholars view Ayurveda as a rational system of medicine that arose historically out of primitive religio-magical roots, like the use of mantras and amulets giving way to herbs and surgery. However, Ayurveda has never separated itself off from these subtle and spiritual levels of healing. It also considers them to be rational but from the standpoint of our immortal soul, not merely that of the physical body. These remain an integral part of Ayurvedic treatment to the present day, which uses gems, mantras and rituals, as well as diet and herbs.
The curative aspect of Ayurveda treats diseases and contains an entire range of therapeutic measures. These curative aspects also consist of three parts - Internal Medicine, External Medicine and Surgery - which are discussed in detail below. Most attention will be given to the Internal Medicine portion as it is the most important
Thus, Lavanya hospital not only treats the body but also treats the mind and soul which is necessary for being healthy according to Ayurveda.
