Pranam
Kerala commercialism is ayurvedic and massage huts resorts. Degrees are
awarded dime a dozen. Ayurvedic rarity in vaidyasala is good; but majority
cheat the public with the exorbitant fee. Twice I paid thro my nose and had
no effective reactions and the gainer was the keralite. Arya vaidyasala
erstwhile and now are totally different. My father in law used to say that
for ayurvedam and Josyam, one must have a lot of restrictions, purity and
mantra japan, lest it is not effective. So instead of paying 22000 for a
week as a package (is there any word as package in ayurvedam?) better to
walk half an hour every day. K R IRS 20421
