Astrology , Holistic Medicine & Ayurveda
Holistic medicine postulates that the responsibility for
healthcare rests in the patient's hands because that is where the knowledge
and control of the variables lie ( diet,stress,exercise,genetics,emotion
& medication).
The Five Levels of Being - The Yogic Model
These are the five concentric sheaths enveloping the Self, the
Divine Spark in man !
1. Physical Sheath ( Annamaya Kosha )
2. Vital Sheath ( Pranamaya Kosha )
3. Mental Sheath ( Manomaya Kosha )
4. Intellectual Sheath ( Vijnanamaya Kosha )
5. Bliss Sheath ( Anandamaya Kosha )
Disease is the imbalance in any of the three lower sheaths
of existence - physical, vital & mental. The microcosm
& the macrocosm are are in unbroken communion with each other & are
structured on the same pattern. At the level of the physical sheath, food,
water & oxygen enter the microcosm and Co2, waste products etc return
to the macrocosm. This is true of other sheaths also. The individual cannot
exist independent of the cosmos. The interdependence of the Microcosm &
the Macrocosm is known in Classical Philosophy as the Bio-Cosmic tieup. If
the exchange between the physical sheath and the physical world around
it is defective, the body will become ill, and death will result if it is
stopped altogether.

Holistic Medicine s www.holistic-alt.com
Vedic Holistic Medicine is Ayurveda and its prophylactic
aspect is Naturopathy. All non-veg food is acidic and the alkaline food
which is needed for the body is that which cometh from Nature. So if we
live in rhythm with Natural Law, no disease can visit us.

Astrology & Yoga Therapy
The approach of Yoga Therapy is based on the holistic concept
of human being; the five " sheaths " of existence of which the physical
sheath ( Annamaya Kosha ) is only the first. The second is the Vital
Sheath ( Pranamaya Kosha ), that is made up of the Vital Energy called
Prana which flows through invisible channels called Nadis. The third is
the Mental Sheath ( Manomaya Kosha ) The fourth is the Intellectual
Sheath ( Vijnanamaya Kosha ) and the final sheath is the Bliss Sheath (
Ananda Maya Kosha ). The Bliss Sheath is found to consist of the positive
energy associated with the Divine Self. It is from this sheath that the
inner peace characteristic of true Bliss emanates.

Astrology & Occult Vibratory Chemistry ( Tantra )
A different but parallel model of human personality was
developed by the Tantras. Whereas the Upanishads speak of Five Sheaths or
Koshas, the Tantras speak of six chakras. These Chakras are ( in ascending
order)
1. Root Chakra ( Muladhara )
2. Anal Chakra ( Manipura )
3. Solar Plexus Chakra ( Swadhistana )
4. Heart Chakra ( Anahata )
5. Throat Chakra ( Vishuddhi )
6. Eyebrow Chakra ( Ajna )
Life is regarded as the unfolding of the Self at six different
levels of consciousness known as Chakras in the magnificent Tantric
Model. In mundane people the unfolding takes place only at the first
three chakras which represent procreation, metabolism & speech;
the higher three chakras remain latent. The awakening of the higher
chakras results in the unfolding and fulfillment of Life Divine. When the
Kundalini, the Serpentine Power inherent in humans, rises from the Root
Chakra ( Muladhara ) to the Crown Chakra ( Sahasrara ), man achieves Cosmic
Consciousness. The Spirit shall take up the human play The earthly
life become the Life Divine!

to posterity " said Dante. Without books we cannot acquire knowledge.

been ushered & many Redeemers will be there to save mankind

" I saw them cross the twilight of the Age,
The massive barrier breakers of this world
The sun-eyed children of a
marvellous dawn
The architects of immortality
Carrying the magic Word, the mystic Fire,
Carrying the Dionysian cup of Joy " - Aurobindo
