DISTINGUISH THE UNSCIENTIFIC FROM THE SCIENTIFIC

Ayurved-vaids "mix" diagnostic, treatment and management approaches from medical-dental sciences and disability viewpoints and make up a complex quackery with a big prefix before his/her name as ‘DR.’ under the guise of a NO-SIDEEFFECTS, holistic/HOLLYISTIC Ayurved-vaids. 

There are straight Ayurved-vaids, who treats VVIPS and very-very rich clients from India and abroad in collaboration with the luxury hotels chains and their own luxury farm-houses. But there are majority of mixers Ayurved-vaids who claims that modern diagnostic techniques, treatments and managements are nothing but calibration machines and methods to measure vat-pit-kaf-sannipat. They believe that vat-pit-kaf-sannipat is the only cause of disease, and hence they not only tend to be open to mainstream medicine, but claim to have an edge over the modern medical sciences.

They incorporate mainstream medical diagnostics and employ conventional treatments including abuse of all-scientific medicines, techniques, therapies. In the name of Yoga, they put forth exercise as one of its forms, including stretching, massage, ice-packs, electric muscle stimulation, oxygen-concentration, therapeutic-ultrasound, sauna-bath, gandoos, siro-dhar, panchkaram etc. Some Ayurved-vaid mixers also use techniques from other alternative medicine, including nutritional supplements chiropratic, jhaada, mantar, acupuncture, homeopathy, natural-herbs, and nadi-vigyan at the top most open/cryptic abuse of the biofeedback.

Although mixers Ayurved-vaids (Dr.) are the majority group, many of them propagate anti-science views and spread fake-news. The most Ayurved-vaids generally provide quick-fix by abusing readily available steroids. E-age Ayurved-vaids are very vocal about Corona-cure and immunity-kada hence bombarded the social-media with false CURE claims along with offering conventional therapies under the guise of motivational speeches, and it made for the lay person very difficult to distinguish the unscientific from the scientific. The communal agenda unleashed by the present government is proving a potent catalyst to undermine scientific documentation and serious public health challenges in a geography where 85% leads life on less than a DOLLAR per day.

BETTER TO LIGHT A CANDLE THAN RELY ON THE DARKNESS

  BETTER TO LIGHT A CANDLE THAN RELY ON THE DARKNESS Being in the vicinity of the Shivalik Fossil Park (Suketi Fossil Park), Morni-hills, Renuka-Lake and Kalesar National Park , Kalesar Wildlife Sanctuary, (both from a bond between Kalesar Forest in contiguous with the Simbalbara National Park  and  Rajaji National Park). Kalesar forest is home to  leopards, panthers, elephants, wild boars/pigs, red jungle fowl, and variety of birds nestling rearing their dreams in the backdrop of a beautiful mosaic of water channels forming Hathnikund Barrage. The serene natural freshness of the land always kept me engaged. From my early childhood it made me to probe and document the facts about its eco-system, geography, fauna-flora, culture, politics and people. While studying Botany and Zoology in MLN College at Yamunanagar we dwelled in these heavens with a noted Botanist Professor Kali Ram and Zoologist Professor Bindra.   My great uncle Dr. Samay Singh, a Persian Scho...

BROKEN HOMES & BROKEN PROMISES

BROKEN HOMES & BROKEN PROMISES By camouflaging the poisonous political agenda unleashed by “Manu” (the writer of Manusamriti) under the garb of Sanatan-Dharam, the RSS Hindutav forces are fomenting Violence against the Dalits, Muslims and Christians.
