| RASAJNANA | -1

|RASAJNANA| is the translation of 'PRASIDDA RASAGALU', a kannada book on rasa dravyas, written by PANDITH TARANATH. Only few Kannada copies were printed and now its not available.
When i got a xerox copy of this book my friends asked me to translate this book into English. So I thought if it is published through this blog it will be helpful to lot of ayurvedic doctors.
While translating this kannada book if my perception of understanding the meaning of a sentence is wrong then please comment on the same and let me come to know about my fault.
Since it takes time to translate a kannada book into English , I will try to publish it in several parts.

Dr. Ravishankar pervaje

You might have heard this name before but still i want to introduce greatness of this man with pleasure...
We know that for 'arshas' management , the prime and the best treatment is considered to be 'kshara karma' , Now a days most of you might have seen kshara karma done under GA , SA or LA in an OT setup and getting wonderful result and no reoccurence.
There was a traditional transfer of knowledge from ancient acharyas for a certain period of time and the technique of practicing kshara karma vanished there after and only theory aspect remained as such.
Now my question is, if the kshara karma practice vanished at that time itself then how we are practising right now? Who developed it?
Answer for this is 'the title itself' ie, DR. Ravishankar pervaje BAMS, MS(BHU). Managing director of Sushrutha Ayurveda Hospital,Puttur, D.K, Karnataka.
This simple man never expect fame. He him self used apthopadesha from sushrutha and applied his yukti and himself developed prathisaraneeya kshara. To prepare an effective kshara itself he took a year! To prepare a kshara he struggled a lot and failed ,each time he failed learnt a new thing and made each failure as a step to prepare effective Prathisaraneeya kshara. Then developed kshara karma in 1991 which is now known as PERVAJE's TECHNIQUE OF KSHARA KARMA. .
People who studied from this person never disclosed that they studied from him and hence many of them unaware of the developer of prathisaraneeya kshara karma.
Dr.Pervaje's treatment is purely based on 'karya karana sidhanta'. He does dosha vikalpa of the Roga and treat the patient according to the dosha. To know about this you must visit sushrutha hospital.

`RAN' - SIDDHA THERAPY

RAN this acronym stands for 1Rasagandhi mezhugu-R, 2Amukkara chooranam - A and 3Nellikkai Ilagam - N, now the most popular Siddha combination for HIV in Tamil Nadu having Immunogenic and adaptogenic properties. RAN therapy is given to HIV patients in the Asia's biggest AIDS hospital at TB Sanatorium, Tambaram, Chennai, South India .

Deivanayagam and co-workers in 2001 could establish laboratory evidence supporting the clinical improvement in more than 60 % of the patients who received either RAN alone or in combination with opportunistic infection (OI) controlling drugs. But RAN could not save those with brain infection, or septicaemia.

Since April 2002, the family health clinic of Health India Foundation (HIF), a registered non-governmental charity, has been running an out-patient service for HIV/AIDS at Red Cross Hospital, Chennai. The author, during his tenure as medical officer at HIF for 13 months have himself closely observed and monitored the safety and effect of RAN therapy in patients with mild to moderate HIV disease (Wilson, 2010). Fritts et al., 2008 in his review article from USA have included the pilot trial conducted with RAN therapy.

Note

1Rasagandhi mezhugu (RGM) is polyherbo–mineral formulation in wax form containing 40 herbs.

2 Poly herbal medicated powder prepared using Withania somnifera Dunal (winter cherry) as the chief ingredient.

3Poly herbal electuary prepared using Phyllanthus Emblica, Linn. (Indian gooseberry) as the chief ingredient

Rthucharya @ South India

Rthu charyas mentioned in Samhithas does not suit for kerala and other south indian states. In kerala only 4 rthus are evident. Winter fro december to february, summer from march to may, rain from june to august. And sadharana rthu frm septembr to november.. Actualy the dosha kopa acording to rthus mentioned in classics are not aplicable to kerala's whether. Acording to classics how dosha sanchaya prakopa occurse? In shishira, due to coldness kapha is increasd and due to the sthambhana guna of cold that kapha get sanchaya in the body. And in vasantha due to sunrise that kapha get liqufied and get prasara in all over the body.. Then grishma due to the hot kapha get prashama.. But due to the dry wind vatha get provocated.. It get sanchaya due to ushnatha it canot go to prakopa.. But in varsha the vatha get prakopa due to the coldnes again.. But at that time pitha get sanchaya due to bhubaashpa.. That pitha wen it comes to the sharad due to sun rays go to prakopa..
What hapens in kerala?
In kerala there is no heavy winter, no heavy summer, no heay dry wint in summer.. But rainy monts are more.. Actualy kerala having 2rainy rthus one is varsha rthu. And other is sadharan rthu or pravrut.
What will be the state of doshas in these rthus?
In winter kapha dosha, in summer pitha dosha, in rainy season vatha dosha get prakopavastha.. That is y in winter we gets asthma patients, and summer masurika epidomic cases and varsha will get vatha vyadhis and vathika jvara like chickoon gunia.. So one should do upavasa in winter.. Ie, makaramasa vritham for shabarimala darshana in kerala.. one should do dipana in varsha so 'karkidaka kanji ' is a habit in kerala on varsha rthu..
one should rejuanate the body when u have strength so u should do bhrimhana in pravrit rthu.

Thalam

Thalam is the process of applying medicines over the centre of the head. The process can be considered as a variant of MURDHANI TAILA. It can be considered as a shorter and easier means of shirolepa. In the initial stage of Ardita thalam is indicated. The navanita thalam is indicated for ardita, considering the dosha involvement. The modified form of thalam with eranda taila , ghritakumari satva and balachurna is also advisable as per the need of the condition. In kamala roga with shirodaha, thalam with navanita and stanya is recommended. the same thalam is advised in vatashonita associated with burning sensation. In vatika and paitika shirashula, navanita thalam is beneficial. In bhanga of shiromarma Navanita thalam is advocated to manage the state of bhrama. In visuchika, thalam with compound of butter and ghee is recommended. In children afflicted with severe sneezing thalam with powders of bala patra, panchagandha with breastmilk, gruel of wheat, butter is effective. In karappan (skin lesions of children mentioned in arogyakalpadruma) associated with shirodaha, thalam with powders of dhatri , madhuka , manjishta , chandana is applied along with breastmilk. The headache developed in extraneous fever is managed with the thalam of manjishta in breastmilk. In bahyayama Eranda taila and butter is placed over head. During swedana , usually the head is not allowed to get perspired. In order to prevent such effects during these procedures there is a custom of placing thalam either with amalaki or with powder of bala mixed in butter.
