Mahant Ganesha Singh on Ayurveda medicine

Gurfateh

Here is an interesting quote from the Megh Binod Steek by the nirmala scholar Mahant Ganesha Singh from the early 1900s. He urges Indians to respect Ayurveda instead of opting for Western medicine. After quoting Western and Islamic references to the benefits of Ayurveda, he writes :

"Today this science [of Ayurveda medicine] is being disregarded and held inferior by those who inhabit our country. Don’t you know that the medicine prepared with the very ingredients and plants of our own country are like one’s mother’s very milk? This is why when one is ill in a foreign country one is sent back to one’s own place of birth. There the native country’s water and air like the mother’s milk strengthen one’s blood and that way one recovers quickly."

Singh it's an old sanskrit granth on auyrveda medicine which Mahant Ganesha Singh wrote a teeka on in the early 1900s.

Sainapati in the post 1708 period also wrote a translation of a sanskrit ayrveda medicine granth... I think it was titled Ram Binod.

You can read the teeka here:
