YOGA: THE SCIENCE OF HEALTH & HEALING

Yogascience represents a scientific application of Yoga as a therapy. The Sanskrit meaning of the word Yoga is ‘integration’. It represents a process though which one learns how to live life in the most integrated way.

This becomes possible through a process of constant effort for identification and elimination of all the elements, which would lead to dis-integration. The health of the body and mind being the most important components of this integrated state, identification of all the elements, causing ill health techniques for neutralizing these ill effects becomes an important concern in Yoga.

Thus Yoga, viewed at one level as a science of personal growth for spiritual experience can also be viewed at therapy level as a science of Health and Healing.


DEFINATION OF HEALTH IN AYURVEDA

A person whose bodily humors are:

  • In a state of equilibrium (Dosha), with
  • An uniformly healthy digestion and metabolism (Agni), and
  • In whom the fundamental vital tissues (Dhaatus) are in their normal state and quantity,
  • Accompanied by the normal process of secretion (Mala Kriyas) and organic function,
  • As well as the sense of well-being (Prasanna) at the soul level (Atma), sensory level (Indriya) and at mental level (Mana).

(Susruta Samhita / 15)
