Why learning herbs is essential?
“Ayurveda”- The traditional Indian medicine is becoming increasingly popular throughout the world, as patients of various diseases generally respond very well to various Ayurvedic treatments, experiencing the reductions in the symptoms and even the cessation of their symptoms. Herbs (Dravyas) play a major role in the Ayurvedic healing process. All the Dravyas (herbs) are composed of five Mahabhutas and so are in the body. These herbs are used as a drug and diet to effect desired changes in case of disorders and maintenance of the latter. In Ayurvedic classical texts i.e Ch. Su. 26/ 12, it is quoted that there is no Dravya which can be taken as non- drug. Along with this Ayurvedic texts also warn against the use of the substance that is adequately understood. Any plant can be used to treat patients but only if it is understood properly, in terms of its nomenclature, identity, properties and actions. As Ayurveda is gaining popularity today, a vast array of spurious Ayurvedic herbs and formulations are available in the market as a result of use of substitute herb, adulterated herb or controversial herb. To avoid any kind of array and to get the maximum benefit from various herbs it is essential to learn herbs and their properties as per classical texts.
