Ayurveda

The Ayurveda is a therapeutic traditional system of India, which origins are deeply deeply rooted in the culture of the indian subcontinent. More than five thousand years ago, the big risbis, or clairvoyants of the ancient India, they observed the fundamental beginning of life and organized them systematically. This way they bequeathed us the Ayurveda, an oral tradition transmitted from generation to generation.

Of about the year 1000 BC date the first written treatises. The best known is the Charaka Sambita, who centres on the internal medicine. Many of the current ayurvedic doctors use Astanga Hrdayam, a most concise compilation written a millenium after those first texts. In the laters texts there are included modifications derived from the medical systems of the cultures that successively invaded the India.
