| What is 'Visharasayana'? |
| The word 'Visha Rasayana' is totally unfamiliar
to majority of the people. One should have a detailed study
as to get to the real core of the term Visha Rasayana. It can
be described as, "the treatment which
helps in expelling all the free radicals, toxins and disease
causing factors which had gained entry into the human body through
different means." This treatment helps the body
to get rid of any ailments and to retain its health by rejuvenating
it. It provides a long and healthy life. |
| Why is this therapy needed? |
| A variety of toxins enter into our body through
different means, majority of which we are unaware of. This results
in weakening of our body & reduces our immunity. It is here
where Visharasayana plays a major role. It rejuvenates the body
by expelling all the toxins & produces a miraculous result.
Most importantly, it can be done in a single day. |
| Why and how is it done? |
| In today’s busy world, environmental pollution
has become a renowned menace to all, living no place to escape.
The truth is that, even the food what we consume contain a certain
amount of toxins. |
|
| Tinned foods, soft drinks, water etc. contain
toxins that reduce our immunity, resulting in reducing the lifespan
by causing various ailments. We becomes prone to Heart problems,
liver disorders, diabetes, respiratory disorders etc., which
we get to know only at a critical stage. |
| Allopathic medicines, tobacco, alcohol etc carry
reasonable amount of toxins which are unknown to common man.
In today’s world the fruits and vegetables, which are
supposed to nourish our body, are contaminated with pesticides,
chemicals and hormones used for its cultivation and preservation.
Refrigerated, food gets toxic when repeatedly exposed to heat.
Milk, meat and other nutritious food fed to infants contains
pathetic factors which lead to obesity. All these factors play
a key role in early ageing & weakening of modern man. |
| This makes the need of Visharasayana therapy
all the more compulsory and in a way unavoidable, by which all
the toxins can be expelled in one day. |
|
| Significance of this therapy |
| It is unfortunate that many Ayurvedic doctors
are unaware of this treatment. Even the manuscripts do not provide
a clear picture to the importance of this therapy. Every practitioner
of Ayurveda should know this great treatment, which has been
done traditionally during these ages. My attempt is to throw
light on the importance of Visharasayana in the life of every
individual today, and to encourage Ayurvedic doctors to make
a study about this treatment and practice it. |
| Its significance in toxicology |
|
| History states that monarchy rule
existed in India. The rulers were surrounded with enemies and
spies from within and outside the kingdom. It became the duty
of royal vaidyas to protect them from the assassins who would
make an attempt, by slow poisoning through food & drinks.
The rulers wanted some medicine, which would protect their lives
from various toxins. |
 |
| Due to lack of time, they wanted
a very short and sharp treatment, which would fetch them good
result. Thus the vaidyas developed the treatment named ‘Visharasayana’
intending to increase the lifespan of their ruler, by expelling
the slow poisons. This therapy was conducted for all the royal
members once in every year. This produced positive results,
and gave the rulers a longer life span. This therapy is open
to everyone who wishes to maintain immunity against diseases. |
