Space Life Science

Knowledge of every aspect of life is hidden within Ayurveda. Irrespective of time and space, life science of human species has been the same. So even though COVID-19 is new disease, we can conquer this struggle by Ayurved. This disease began in China from Asatmya Ahar. Ahar means food. And Asatmya means the food which doesn’t adjust to our digestive system. Pradnyaaparadh is main cause behind this. It means besides knowledge of right and wrong, person tends to do wrong by his bad habits. Asatmya Ahar affects our digestive power. In Ayurved, every disease begins with Mandaagni (Diminished digestive power). By frequent intake of Asatmya Ahar, digestive power (Agni) gets too much affected that it digests improperly. In such condition Corona Virus get a chance to enter in body by crossing this barrier of Mandaagni. When such improper food was eaten in China, Corona Virus started to infect Aamashay (part of digestive system). This started to develop symptoms like vomiting, nausea, diarrhoea. After this, virus gets entry in body, and gets located in praanvah strotas (Respiratory system). Due to some other factors like air pollution, smoking etc this praanvah strotas got weakened. Thus virus located there. In Ayurved, this process in known as Sthansanshray in kha-vaigunya part. It grew rapidly there and infected respiratory system (praanvah strotas dushti). Thus it started to show up symptoms like difficulty in breathing, cough, cold, fever, fast breathing, palpitations etc1.
