Yaska Hypothesis – Science of Definition , Nirukta Sastra
Was well developed by Yaska.
It was started to define Vedic concepts,
And to refute the Non-Vedic.
{ Vasti tasya Niruktam tu
Veda Nirvachanam Sphutam )
What is the Definition of Definition?
It is Genus et differentia.
” Man is a political animal”
Satisfies the condition stated.
( animal is the genus & political , differentia )
But Brahman, the Summum Genus, is Indefinable,
As it has no proximate genus !
How can the One, which became an innumerable multitude,
Sastisfy the condition of genus et differentia?
Best definition of Absolute Brahman,
Was given by the poet, Aurobindo.
It was defined as the Sevenfold Chord of Being,
With lowest term as Matter and highest, pure Being !
Previous best was Being-Knowledge-Bliss,
The Upanishadic Sat Chit Anandam Brahma,
Which was extended, incorporating four more,
Life, Mind, Matter and Supermind.
Sages spoke of It negatively, Neti, Neti,
Said It is not this, It is not that.
They also spoke of It positively, Iti, Iti,
They said It is this, It is that, It is all !
Brahman, the Absolute, is Life, is Mind,is Matter,
Is Supermind, is Cosmic Delight, is Sat Chit Ananda.
But then, Absolute Brahman cannot be defined,
Not even by our broadest definition of Sat Chit Ananda.

Trilogy of Books of Ayurveda,
the Brihat Trayee
It
is said that the Greeks acquired an insight into Medicine, only after
Alexander’s invasion of India, only after the secrets
of the Atharva Veda were revealed to them. It is said of this Holistic
Science of Life that it originated from the Atharva Veda and the Upanishads, Atharva
Vedasu Upanisadsu pragulpannah.
Naturopathy – The Prophylactic Aspect of Ayurveda
Naturopathy or Prakrithi Therapy is the Swastha Vritta ( Prophylactic
Aspect ) of the Science of Life.
The Five Great Elements are the Five Doctors ( Annam Brahma ). Food is
medicine and medicine is food. By food we mean Naturopathic food, the food
that cometh from Nature. The Five Great Elements ( Pancha Maha Bhootas ) are
prior to everything. Hence they are known as the Five Great Doctors ( Annam
Hi Bhoothanam Jyeshtyam Thasmad Sarvoushadhamuchyathe ).
The Five Great Doctors can cure any disease. Exposure to Sunlight is
Thejopasana. The body gets abundance of Vitamin D. Daily at least 10 minutes
one should bathe in the Sun.
The Fivefold Worship of Naturopathy
Thejopasana – Sun bathing. Sunlight is a rich source of Vitamin D
Akasopasana – Fasting, the best medicine. During fasting the digestive
system gets rest and diseases like ulcer are cured by Fasting.
Jalopasana – Water is a universal medicine. At least 12 glasses of water
should be taken in daily and exercises like swimming are excellent.
Vayopasana – Getting fresh air is a must.
Prithyopasana – Fruits and vegetables cometh from Nature and are rich in
vitamins, minerals and proteins. They contain phytochemicals which are
cancer or disease preventing.
The Ayurvedic principle, Lankhanam Param Oushadham is well endorsed by
Paracelsus, ” Fasting is the greatest remedy”. It is called Fasting
Therapy
and has been endorsed by Plato, Aristotle, Tertulian, Plutarch et al.
During Therapeutic Fasting, the Ama ( toxins ) are destroyed. Also
undigested particles are digested. After Fasting, metabolic rate in
increased and the digestive fire is enhanced.
The Dhanvantari Mantra calls for the removal of Ama from the system,
Sarvamaya Vinasanaya Maha Vaishnave Swaha

Of the Immortality of Self Divine
The Eternian knows he is Being, Infinite Sphere,
Self, Center everywhere, Circumference nowhere.
Him the fire cannot burn, Him the water cannot wet,
Him the sword cannot pierce nor wind dry.
What can all these trials and tribulations do,
To the Birthless, Everlasting One,
Whom fire cannot burn nor wind dry?
This Eternal Self knoweth no destruction.
More luminous than all luminaries,
Self shines beyond Nescience.
It is the Substratum .the Base of All,,
Being Knowledge, Knower and Known.
Him the Sun cannot express, nor the Moon,
Nor the Stars, Lightning cannot express Him,
Nor fire, as through Him they shine,
And Self is His great transparent mirror !
The body-mind-intellect complex, the Ego,
Sows the wind and reaps the whirlwind,
Known as the Law of Karma,
While the Self remains uninvolved.
This is the Glorious Doctrine,
Of the Self”s Non-responsibility
He is non responsible,
For actions of the Ego !
