I bow to your superior knowledge of this medicine. I in no way am an

expert in the clinical use of Ayurvedic medicines. If this medicine

has the Swarna Bhasma balanced with other substances then you might be

right, since what is needed by these cases is support of the energy.

My doubt came from the concept that Swarna Bhasma is famous as a

stimulant adaptogen. This type of medicine might have a similar

concept as medicines in TCM that use stimulant adaptogens like Ginseng

and balance them with cooling substances like Rehmannia glutinosa

which is a famous Yin supporting substance.

 

Here is a study that shows the effectivness of Swarna Bhasma as a

stimulant, it works at the level of the anabolic processes which is

why it has such profound effects in disease;

Thanks for clarifiying my doubt.

Dear Elizabeth,

Thanks for mentioning my name. I will always try to contribute about authentic

Ayurveda, as and when time permits me from my busy professional practicing

schedule.

Basically, it is very dificult to discuss the complex issues of Ayurvedic

nomenclatures and principles of treatment for want of proper basic perspective.

Unless one fully understands the Ayurvedic philosophy and its outlook towards

life processes, one cannot grasp Ayurveda in its true sense. All talk about

herbs and its applications just tantamounts to standing on the seashore with

feet in the breaking waves. Knowing real Ayurveda is like swimming in the sea.

Hence, even if I am well-versed with the comparative aspect of Ayurvedic and

Western concepts, it will be tad difficult for all to grasp.

However, I will sincerely pursue my endeavour to clarify the position of

Ayurveda, whenever a improper interpretation or wayward claim will be posted on

this forum.

Thanks again to all who love Ayurveda.

I do not feel qualified to describe these complex concepts in

Ayurvedic terms; I have never studied Ayurveda in Sanskrit since I do

not know Sanskrit. Example; I do not know the Ayurvedic distinction

and the terms used between the ANS and CNS. Perhaps Dr Muzumdar or

others could help us here. I noted that Dr Muzumdar has made such

correspondences in his previous posts. There in Pune we have Dr

Subhash Ranade who has a deep knowledge in Ayurveda, Yoga, and western

science. I know that many of these definitions have been done.
