I said the THEORY of ayurveda is illogical and unscientific and most importantly, unprovable.
Agree with this to a good extend, however it was knowledge of it's own time which was eons earlier.
I did not say that knowledge of herbs and techniques is also illogical.
Okay, good...! so now, from where does this knowledge came from in Ayurveda ?
Anything in Ayurveda that works can and is being assimilated into modern medicine.
Right, agree. This is only what am saying too. But to say Ayurveda totally is merely dumb text to start with, will not help it.
To have two ways about this is called hypocrisy which is innocuously alleged against me by another gentile man.
Ayurvedic research institutions funded by the government are trying to do this through their trials. So there is no potential being left on the table.
In India they started comparatively recently. In west they did much earlier and wanted patents on those natural herbs and whatever?
To say no more potential is left is where I start disagreeing. We haven't even touched the tip of possibilities, nor are following proper scientific methods.
Then are also being wet blanketed more by new age useful idiots by those with vested interest.
It became a patent war and India cannot attend to a volley of such barrage attacks.
Indian and other herbal market is worth billions in other countries. I personally know people from local regions who are exporting these so claimed 'useless concoctions' and making millions.
It's just that people think there is a treasure trove of revolutionary medicines in there when in reality the trials are disappointing. So it's the over-hype by babas and ayurvedic practitioners that is causing this perception.
See am totally not into babas of any kind, nor into pseudo science side of Ayurveda.
Am into scientifically gleaning information from whatever texts available, give it deserved respect and do proper research so that desperate people can get cure and help.
I mean, am not into ideological puritan nomenclature bullshit rather being pragmatic about what helps humanity.
