#Dhanteras Or Dhanwantari Jayanti is celebrated as #AyurvedaDay

Who was Lord Dhanwantari ji?

Pls RT to spread word

#Ayurveda
Lord Dhanwantari is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He is One of the pioneers of #Ayurveda. He belongs to ShalyaTantram or Surgery branch.
He appeared from Samudra Manthanam. He has four hands holding Shankha (conch) Chakra (A weapon)
Jalauka (leech) & AmritaGhata (exilir)
This is a symbolic representation where conch denotes it's medicinal use in #Ayurveda eg Shankha Bhasma Chakra denotes Surgical instruments,
leech is used for blood letting or RaktaMokshan; on of the PanchaKarmas and exilir pot suggests health.
Dhanwantari is not just mythological figure but historical. References found in Brahma Vaivarta Puranam & Harivansham.
Harivamsha 1st chapter quotes; Lord Dhanwantari was blessed by lord Vishnu that he shall take rebirth during Dwapara Yuga.
So Divodasa was born to Dhanva; the King of Varanasi during Dwapara. He restored the city of Varanasi & founded Universities like Nalanda.
Famously known as Kashiraja Divodasa Dhanwantari; he was an eminent scholar of #Ayurveda. Acharya Susruta was one amongst his disciples.
Susruta Samhita is the very foundation of modern day surgery. This is very important contribution of #Ayurveda towards mankind.
Dhanteras is celebrated to pay gratitude towards Lord Dhanwantari. Puja is done & dry coriander with aged jaggery is offered to the lord.
Today is celebrated as #AyurvedaDay by @moayush. Let's pledge for #SwasthaBharat through #Ayurveda.
Om Dhan Dhanwantaraye Namah।

A classic case how #Ayurveda is being defamed deliberately and how rumours are spread intentionally.

How an Ayurvedic tonic caused severe liver disease in a farmer who never drank alcohol.
scroll.in/pulse/886955/h… via @scroll_in
First of all; Dashamoolaristam (the accused medicine in the write-up) isn't used as 'digestive' in #Ayurveda It is primely used in Vata diseases. It contains self generated alcohol which is different than the distilled one.
Here mentioned farmer is said to be taking 4-5 ounces (approx 148 ml) four times a day which makes it around 592 ml a day!

Theraputic dose of the same is 10-20 ml twice a day.

So in this case; it was consumed in around 15 times more quantity than the expected!

#Thread : #diabetes & rice

Study conducted by the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) and the University of Queensland says, #Diabetic patients may consume Indian varieties of rice like Swarna, Mahsuri as they have low GI.

#DiabetesMonth
#SwasthaBharat
Rice variety like brown rice could be consumed by #Diabetic patients as well. This is customary in many parts of southern India.

#DiabetesMonth
#SwasthaBharat
Traditionally Indians consume aged rice; which has low GI as compared to the new one. If you consuming new rice grain; just roast it a bit before cooking. It makes it easy to digest says #Ayurveda. The process also helps reducing the GI.

@GauPrem @SatyaVijayi @mandarjoshisays @TejasOmkara @authorAneesh
First pic mentions about the preparation specifically used to TREAT VishamaJvara; not any random type of fever. Medicine & diet difference??
The second image shared by you clearly says 'न शीलयेत्।' which means DON'T CONSUME beef. So you actually proved my point sharing it!!

#Thread on #Hindu #Hinduism & #Hindutva. I saw this as an imprudent need & hence the thread as below cc @vivekagnihotri @RatanSharda55 @Sanjay_Dixit @_NAN_DINI @GitaSKapoor @sankrant @DikshitSmita @Shubhrastha 👇🏼Pic: Trimurti Sadashiva sculpture on Gharapuri Island
2/n #Hinduism is a reduced nomenclature given to the Sanatana Dharma by British in 1830s. The word Hinduism is formed by adding suffix ISM to Hindu.

ISM is defined as a distinctive practice, system, or philosophy, typically a political ideology or an artistic movement.
3/n It must be understood that Hindu term always had geo-cultural meaning covering for people residing amid Sindhu River, Himalayas & Indu Sagar. Then in this case adding suffix ISM is nothing but mocking English Language. Eg, u can’t add Ism to Japanese and call Japaneism.

Perumbatta’s Theyyam : When a Hindu God makes a journey to a Mosque in Kerala.

Once in three years, Vishnumoorthy Theyyam of Padarkulangara Bhagavathy Temple makes a customary trip to the nearby mosque (Munirul Islam Juma Masjid) in the town of Kanhangad, Kasargode.

#Thread
Once in three years, Sri Padarkulangara Bhagavathy Temple plays host to a triennial festival known as the Perunkaliyatta Maholsavam.

The festival, spread over three days, starts on the first day of the month of Kumbham (Aquarius), according to the Malayalam calendar.
The Vishnumoorthy Theyyam — a Theyyam enactment based on the Narasimha avatar of Lord Vishnu — is the primary ritual of the temple festival.

Theyyam is a prevalent ritual form of worship in North Malabar.

Keep seeing this ‘No Arrest No Prosecution’ thing, by people who don’t really care for the truth. One of biggest myths of 2018. In every one of these States people have been arrested & are being prosecuted. One example: Zamfara, 117 arrests: google.com/amp/s/www.vang…

I think the starting point for commentary like this is to say that no death of any Nigerian at the hands of bandits & criminals is acceptable or justifiable. Even a single death is one too many. And one of the primary responsibilities of any Govt is security. That’s not in doubt.
So, this matter of ‘No Arrests No Prosecutions.’ It’s very far from true. The simplest of Google searches puts the lie to it.Also the Police regularly put out statements on large-scale arrests. I’ll share more links as part of this thread. This from Kaduna google.com/amp/s/punchng.…

On #Dhanteras or Dhanvantri Trayodashi, a short thread in honour of Lord Dhanvantri, the physician of the gods and the lord of traditional medicine.

An amsa-avatara of Lord Vishnu, he was born on Aswiyuja Bahula Trayodasi during the churning of the ocean.
During the Samudra Manthanam, in search of the nectar of immortality, or Amritam, the devas and asuras churned for years and years. Dhanvantri arose from this churning holding a Kamandalam and danda in his hands. (31/45, Bala Kanda, Valmiki Ramayana)
In the 29th chapter of Harivamsa we have another description of Dhanvantri.

Dhanvantri arose from the churning paying his obesance to lord Vishnu who was in his Kurma Avatara then. He was named Abja. He requested a Yagnabhaaga but was denied. But Vishnu grants him a boon.

1/ Manu (The progenitor of Humankind)
All different races of Mankind are derived from Manu and Shradha. The current Manu is Vaivasvata Manu.
2/ The word Manu literary means man but it is a title given to the progenitor of mankind. According to Hindu Puranas there are many kalpas (One day of Lord Brahma the creator) and each Kalpa has 14 manvantara and each manvatara has one manu. So basically each Kalpa has 14 Manus.
3/ The current manu of the present manvantara is Shraddhadeva or Vaivasvata Manu of this current Kalpa. He is the son of Vivasvat (Probably Surya) and is therefore also known as Manu-vaivasvata.
