AYURVEDIC INDIA
Country visited: India

In the Ayurvedic text books, rejuvenation has been termed as Rasayana. A definition of Rasayana in Ayurveda is described as "That which destroys the old age and disease."

That means by taking Rasayana you remain healthy and young. Even when you are in your 80's or 90's you will be able to perform your normal duties and you don't have to depend on others. Rasayana is only one of the eight branches of Ayurveda.

Rejuvenation or Rasayana is not made for sense gratification as many today think. According to Ayurveda rejuvenation is taken so that after taking it you become healthy and give your services for others. It is taken so that you can explore the spiritual aspect of life and help the society, the sick, the hungry, the poor and the handicapped.

You can learn how to maintain a balance between material and spiritual aspects of life and help others also to understand it. This will help in establishing permanent peace, happiness and love for which we are always hankering and for which different governments are spending millions of dollars to achieve. Ayurveda says that at present we are using a wrong approach to achieve these things, that's why we are getting frustrated.

Aim of Rasayana

The Rasayana or Rejuvenation therapy aims at keeping the enzymes in the tissue cells in their normal functioning condition. These cells are to be revitalised and their composition has to be changed. The tranquility of the mind has to be promoted and the nerves as well as bones are to be kept soft and soothened. This prevents the process of ageing and makes the individual free from any disease even during an advanced age. He will be able to see things like before and the sharpness of hearing and vision continues. The glow in his face and the colour of his skin remains as before. It is with this in view one has to resort to rejuvenation therapy.

Time of Administration

The sooner the therapy is administered to the individual the better. In more advanced age, this therapy does not work well. Its effect becomes limited. Before starting the therapy, the following two points are to be observed:

The body of the individual is cleaned of the dirt or the metabolic waste products through specialised therapies indicated in the Panch Karma. If the Rasayana is taken after cleaning the toxins from the body, it gives the best results, though it can be also taken without it.

The person taking Rasayana is taught to think, speak and work in such a way which would be conducive to development of a healthy society. In fact, these conducts are given a lot of importance in Ayurveda and they themselves are also considered to have rejuvenating effects on the human body.

Method of taking Rasayana

Most Rasayana therapy is taken in the Kutipravesika method. In this method the person has to stay indoors while taking the Rasayana.

Elaborate arrangements are made for the construction of a special type of cottage where the individual is to be confined. The person has to strictly follow the diets and other instructions of the physician. He should undergo Panch Karma therapy before taking the rejuvenation.
