amazing…!

Excellent presentation on Ayurveda! Must see.

1 Minute and 51 seconds into the speech, and I’m already bothered. Ayurvedic is SOMETIMES translated into science of living? systematized wisdom is sometimes called science? I smell vague bullshit….binding energy? who knew that this lady did such hard hitting research. this is religion with a faked science badge stapled on.

Ayurveda is an ancient school of thought. It was scientific when it was first conceptualized. There are ayurvedic products that have been shown effective under controlled conditions. Recall Frankenstein, “These were men to whose indefatigable zeal modern philosophers were indebted for most of the foundations of their knowledge.”Frankenstein, Chapter 3

Science is now proving in recent years, what ayurveda has theorised a long long time ago.

the osher lifelong learning institute doesnt even have a wikipedia entry. what kind of “institute” doesnt even have a wikipedia article? one that doesnt exist and is an advertising ploy. that kind!

1. I am surprised by threadysparrow’s thready comment. Bernard Osher has granted several universities funding to start Osher centers for better understanding the healing that should underlie the science of medicine. And just because it doesn’t have a wiki entry, why does that mean it can’t exist…?

2. Ayurveda is sometimes translated in different ways because the Sanskrit doesn’t translate to english directly. ‘Is that vague bull**it?’ Go take a class in linguistics.
3. Postmodern physics, physical chemistry and astrophysics all talk about binding energy.

4. her comments pointed to epistemologic arguments about ayurveda. Perhaps people who can’t think on the frontier of science can’t get it. She is on.
5. hinduism was not religion:it’s a lifestyle & world view. White man made ‘hinduism’ a religion ‘worshipping elephants & monkeys.’ Ayurveda is a choice of how to live life. Calling it fake science just says the speaker does not understand science….

i advise you, DONT GO ON THAT WEBSITE
