Fever ? what can we possibly do !!!

This period of the year is the best time to sleep. Not only humans, all living creatures in this mighty earth would love to sleep for a longtime. But this is also a period of frequent fevers and cold. This is a post for those who wants to get past the fever without the influence of modern medicines.

First of all, medicines are not required to get over the fever and cold. Thoda... So far, right from our childhood, if a fever prolongs more than a day, immediately we were taken to the nearby clinic and either injected or nowadays, a paracetamol is taken voluntarily to the least, to bring down the fever. Namma padichirukom... money vachirukom... how can we leave it as such. Then it might lead to dengue, cholera or typhoid. This is how we were told. Come on guys, lets stop thinking like those bloody Medical Representatives(no offense) and your body is not your customer. Lets pay attention to understand why it is not needed.

Rain has brought down the land's temperature by many folds and now the fog has added chillness to our mother Earth. There is a need for sun's heat because only if the land here gets heated up, it can return back to normal. A mild heat is the usual aspect of a land. Excess chillness indicates that particular land has lost its usual heat.

Only excess heat can get over the chillness and rescue back the normal state of the land. We might understand now why the sun heats the land to a max in a year's cycle. As the Great Tamil Scholar and writer Thirumoolar rightly said, ’அண்டமும் பிண்டமும் ஒன்று’ ,'Body and Universe are same'

During rainy and cold seasons, the land is wet and chill, paving way for the tiny organisms to multiply. Similarly, the same happens to a human body during these seasons and the body temperature goes low. During this stage, the micro-organisms inside our body tend to multiply. There are termed as Germs. Based on the weather conditions, the type and count of microorganisms keeps changing.

If we question, where did all these micro-organisms come from, the answer would be, it all came from inside our very own body. Since because there was no suitable conditions so far, they were all in sleep mode. Once the weather changes, the rate of their growth and population increases. One more important info we must understand is, all these micro organisms have a tendency to multiply only on the unwanted wastes inside our body. These microorganisms grow enormously only on prolonged faeces, undigested food, stagnated urine & phlegm. To understand easily, consider the growth of micro organisms on a cooked food and on a waste material, maybe cow dung.

The human body which has no wastes in it will not induce fever and cold. So, as the body temperature goes down, the growth of micro organisms increases by many folds. It becomes the necessity of human body to reduce the growth of these microorganisms immediately. If this doesn't happen, the population of micro organisms would start damaging the body. As an effect, organ failures can happen. Here comes a need for fever inside a human body.

Fever is induced only to spoil the environment on which these microorganisms grow, eliminate the bodily wastes and these germs. Definitely Fever is not a disease. It is just the outcome of the disease inside our body. So don't panic when you get fever. It has been induced to repair and do the maintenance activity to your body, by your very own body(I would prefer saying your 'உயிர்' rather than 'உடல்').

Our body has enough knowledge on the degree of temperature that it has to raise in order to eliminate these bodily wastes. We must permit this rise in temperature. This is the possibly easy way to live a healthy life. Any other efforts we put to reduce the temperature is just like interfering in the maintenance activity of our body.

Don't feel happy when it sweats after you pop up some tablets for fever. It is not a solution for fever. It is actually a cheap technique to bring down the heat instead of eliminating the actual cause of the fever. Moreover, by reducing the body temperature, we are giving way for the germs to replicate. Along with these, antibiotic medicines are also prescribed. Assume you throw bomb on a gang of 10 person where two of them are terrorists. Finally, you end up killing two but along with them you forgot to notice that 8 other humans are also killed. This is the approach of modern medicine. They give antibiotic to kill the germs but they are lots of good-doing bacteria which helps in digestion. They are also killed because of which a person suffering from fever will have digestive problems, post-fever. These medicines are further becoming a burden to our body. This is why Tamilnadu HealthCare department has advised not to prescribe antibiotics immediately for fever.

The unwanted microorganisms will be acted upon and eliminated by the body's rise in temperature which is actually the fever. If we indulge in between, these microorganisms are forced to stay inside causing life long diseases.

Lets see what all should we do when we are suffering from fever.

1. Person suffering should take complete rest.
2. If you are thirsty, drink warm water or boil it and let it cool down, then drink. Without thirst, don't even drink a drop of water.
3. In the starting stages, when you are hungry, drink rice kanji, idly, idiyappam. For idly & idiyaapam, it is good to have sugar. Avoid other gravies or chutneys.
4. Fever goes to a peak and then declines. At this point of time, when you are hungry, it is good to have rice with rasam. For rasam, it is better to add tomato rather than tamarind. Along with the rice, it is good to have pudhina/karuveppilai/kothamalli thuvaiyal.
5. If the temperature rises, soak a cloth in normal water and gently massage on the forehead. Do not massage to the extent of reducing the body temperature. When the heat of the body is bearable, stop massaging.
6. When you have fever, eating without hunger will lead to worse effects. Also drinking water without thirst is not recommended. Listen to your body. Do not seek food without understanding the necessities of your body.
7. Rather than the foods given above, it is better to avoid any other foods or drinks. Especially, staying away from milk-foods during feverish times helps faster recovery.
8. Consumption of Nilavembu Kashayam has increased a lot nowadays. Without proper medical consultation from Traditional Medicine practitioners, consuming medicines like Nilavembu is not good for health.

Apart from these, below are some other food medicines that can help us get through the cold/cough ailments.

Foods that help in eliminating phlegm.

Pepper syrup(மிளகு கசாயம்) :

Jeera - 1 tablespoon.

Pepper - 7 no.s

Fry both separately. Mix them in a pan and add some Palm Jaggery(பனை வெல்லம்). The jaggery would melt but see to that it doesn't stick to the pan. Pour one and half glasses of water and boil well. Switch off once you realise that it has boiled well. Put the below leaves in this syrup.

1. Tulasi(துளசி)
2. Karpooravalli(கற்பூரவல்லி/ ஓமவல்லி)
3. Neem(வேப்பங்கொழுந்து )

When the syrup is hot, put these leaves and leave it closed for ten to fifteen min. Consume the syrup when it is warm. Even if you don't get these leaves, consuming just the Pepper syrup would suffice.

Directions :

Consumed it an hour before sleep. Consume only for five continuous days.

THOOTHUVALAI FRY(தூதுவளை வறுவல்) :
Fry some four or five thoothuvalai leaves in ghee and mix it with a handful of rice and eat it.
Directions :
Consume in the evenings. Should be consumed only five continuous days and not more than that.

Jeera Water:

Boil water well in a pot and switch it off. With the same heat, tablespoon of Jeera, 7 peppers and close the pot with a lid. You can consume it warm. Whenever you consume, boiling it slightly will give good results. Until you are completely alright, consuming Jeera water in the place of normal drinking water has been giving best results. To improve digestion, to eliminate the phlegm and to correct the respiratory ailments, Jeera water has been of much help. People suffering from fever are not advised to consume Jeera water. Boil normal water and let the temperature go down and then consume it. Jeera water is advised to consume only after fever & people suffering from cold. 

Improve the health of yourself and your family by utilizing the above mentioned information. Do not assume the rise in the body's temperature rise as disease. Importantly, don't show interest on the fancy names kept for fever.

Without any hesitation, there are lakhs of people leading a lifestyle without any medicines. On the other hand, there are even people who feel happy when they get fever. We have got so many marks memorizing everything about Cell, its structure & functionalities. Let us all relate and understand its real functionalities in day-day life. After all, welcoming this functionality of this fantastic bio-engine 'Human body' to eliminate the toxic substances by inducing fever should be the real Science. Isn't it ?

Does 'Medical Insurance' cover only our Expenses or Health too ?

     I recently had a talk with one of my relative. Basically he is a very good hearted person and has recently retired from his Railway service. So y'all must now guess he is 60 years old. It is almost a year I saw him lastly and as we all know, when we meet our close relative after an year, gradually the talk would extend to atleast an hour. We might be having so many things to share. Ok ok, I can hear your mind voice telling "aahaan, what is the matter, why are you telling all these to us". Let me come to the matter. He was telling me that he went for a master check up and they gave him a medical report stating he slightly has a increased blood pressure and taking tablets regularly would control it.
     
     Before I tell about what he said, let me tell something what came to my mind when I first heard about blood pressure. I heard this term blood pressure when my dad was taking tablets few years back along with diabetes' medication. When I started to explore more about BP & diabetes, few things came to my mind.

• On how many people did they test & fix the recommended levels for BP & Diabetes.
• Which country do the test victims belong to & what was their height & weight when they tested, because logically the blood quantity of a person 4 feet height should obviously differ from a person from 7 feet height. How can we expect both of them to have the same blood pressure levels.
• How can we expect a person at US, India, Africa & Australia to have the same BP & sugar levels. Saying this because this is how these days BP & sugar levels are taken into consideration and one is tagged as BP patient or diabetic patient.

Okay, coming back to my relative, he told me that he has started taking tablets for BP and he is taking two tablets after breakfast & dinner. My relative has no knowledge that I have been practising traditional medicine for sometime now. Moreover I cannot keep my mouth shut when I hear about any of my close friend or relative taking tablets; it is my habit and I feel no wrong in questioning them. Similarly I questioned him, what is the problem with your body, what made you go for check-up and why are you taking tablets. He said my body is ok but I have been tested when I went for master checkup and I am suggested to take BP tablets to have my pressure in control. I understood that he has also become an innocent victim of the society so-called health-spoiling diseases. The saddest part he says casually that the expenditure for all these tablets and medication will be covered under his medical insurance so he will he reimbursed, so no issues. I think that he thought I'm concerned about the money that gets wasted on this medical bills. He did not realise and won't realise at this point of time that the Medical insurance would reimburse his expenses but not the fantastic health back he had past 60 years. I did not ask him anything more than that because from his words I could sense that he might even answer that he has lived his life and what is he going to do thinking over this.

     This might sound convincing and acceptable to most of those old people reading this, but you might not know how worse ur health goes on continuously consuming tablets. When I take my relative, his son is in Salem & daughter in Erode. If at all these old people - himself and his wife get ill, each other should help the other, assuming they get naturally ill. But these medications will make them permanently ill and the more you go to lab test the body, definitely the issues inside your body is going to increase because of continuous medication and it is not going to improve your health at all. If they are in need of assistance some years later when they get more ill, definitely their children are not going to help out as all of them are running for their own debts in this fast food world. This is the truth and if you cannot accept, go in search of any person who says he is on medication for so and so years and his health condition is very well compared with how he was before he started the medication. This is oen of the most prevailing issue with our society. There has been many shows on all these master checkups & unwanted tests by Satyameva Jayate Aamir Khan & Neeya Naana Gopinath. Behind the screen, the health keeps deteriorating.

     Never feel proud or relieved with your medical insurance schemes. They are just there to bring back the money and not your health. Let us think over it and start understanding more about body and nature and concentrate on improving our health rather than wasting(not spending) money on these useless health spoiling insurance schemes.

As I always say, people who opt to live natural lifestyle void of medications, are not going to live for 200 years or so. But they can live a peaceful and happy life until their that 'life' exists in their body.

Understanding Health - Part 9 - Action and Reaction(base of diseases) - நோய்களின் அஸ்திவாரம் !!!

Every action has an equal but opposite reaction! We needn't wait for another birth for reaping the benefits of our actions. Each word has a question and its answer within. Violating the body's natural law is action; waste stagnation is the reaction. Both are not two actions – they are one activity with two characteristics! The same holds true for bodily functions. Our every activity has a reaction in the body. Let us come back to waste disposal. Phlegm, cough, sneezing, skin diseases, digestive problems, hepatitis, stomach pain, dysentery, fever... are these the only things caused by waste stagnation? No, all diseases of the body are due to waste and its accumulation! 
Cysts : Cysts or tumors are the solid forms of wastes. Waste, which cannot be removed by the body, is hardened and preserved temporarily. When sufficient immune energy is gained, the cysts are diluted and dissolved. 
Heart disease: It is the waste stagnated in the arteries forms blocks. Strengthening of immune energy reduces the blocks. Pain occurs when the body dissolves these blocks in the blood vessels.
Kidney failure: This does not happen with the stagnation of normal waste. Each time, we stop the removal of waste with drugs. The liver preserves the toxins in these chemicals. These toxins are removed in the form of hepatitis and liver disease. If we take drugs now, the toxins overcome the liver and leak into the blood.The toxins in blood circulation reach the kidneys and are preserved as stones. These are the kidney and bladder stones! When the intensity of toxins increases, kidneys function decreases. If we opt again for drugs, the kidneys fail gradually. 
Gall bladder stones : Toxins absorbed in the liver are preserved in the gall bladder. The gall bladder with the help of the liver tries to detoxify. The most dangerous toxins are preserved as stones. Strengthening immune energy dilutes and destroys these stones. Colitis: The important organ in the digestive system is the intestines. Here energy absorbed from food is taken to the blood. Food we eat with hunger does not do any harm. Food taken without hunger is eliminated as waste from the body. Repeated occurrence of additional wastes ferments to acidity and forms ulcers. Ulcers form only when we take food without hunger. Instead, exact science says not eating when hungry forms ulcers.
Knee pain : Waste stagnation may be in the form of heat or water or air or solid. The destabilizations of water energy produce waste that stagnates in the form of water in the joints. Water-stagnated joints cause pain. The same water when it stagnates in the head is called Sinus and when it stagnates in the joints is called rheumatic.
Paralysis : When the liver gets affected, paralysis occurs. 
Brain cyst : The brain is not a vital organ. The heart, spleen, lungs, kidneys and liver are the vital organs in our body. The brain functions as the reflective organ of these vital organs. Under-performance of these five organs and waste stagnation in them weakens the functioning in the reflective organ – the brain. The waste is stocked as cysts in the nerves of the brain. Developing sufficient immunity in the body can reduce the cyst. At this stage, we feel pain. If we cooperate with our body, these cysts are reduced. 
Cancer: Cancer does not occur overnight. Waste stagnates in an organ of the body. We preserve it instead of allowing it to get away from the body. Then these wastes turn into cysts. Chemical drugs(toxins) given by us develop these cysts. A stage comes when these toxin waste develop and rot. This is called cancer. The location of the waste decides the disease-naming ceremony, viz. uterus cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, ovary cancer, gastric cancer, etc. 
When cancer develops in the spleen – the vital organ for blood cell development – it affects the blood and blood cancer is created. Cysts reduced by radiation or broken by drugs do not cure cancer. They just suppress. They develop again in the same location or at other locations of the body.
A separate volume can be written for each disease. However, we will see few more basics.
Diabetes : .What is the reason for sugar (diabetes)? It is a shortfall of insulin secretion. Why does insulin reduce? That is still under research. The answer is superficial. The function of the body is a combination of invisible energy changes and visible chemical changes. Shortfall of insulin is only a chemical change. Unless we know about the energy change, we cannot cure the disease.The foods we eat are digested into glucose to feed cells. If food is properly digested, we get good glucose. Improper digestion gives bad glucose. Insulin secretion is decided by the level of good glucose in the body. If bad glucose increases, insulin secretion is reduced. Insulin reduction is due to improper digestion. Improper digestion is due to waste stagnation and under-performing digestive organs. Bad glucose entering the body is removed as urine by the kidneys. This glucose-removal activity is named as diabetes.
Blood pressure : Blood pressure is not a disease related to heart. What is the function of blood? Giving the necessary energy (food) to each cell! The necessary speed and pressure required to circulate blood all over the body is given by the heart. This is normal circumstance. Let us consider an organ is affected or is under-performing. This organ needs enough pure energy(glycogen) to recover. From where does it get this energy? Only through the blood! There is an emergency to supply energy (blood) to the particular organ. Now, the heart gives the required pressure so that the blood reaches the organ. When does this heart rate and pressure reduce? When the requirement is met! Is blood pressure a disease or is the stagnant waste and affected organs a disease? Is the heart the cause for blood pressure? We send drugs for BP into our body to reduce the function of our heart. When our immunity increases, again the blood pressure increases. Intake of drugs reduces it. There are situations of low blood pressure, due to this. If we diagnose disease with the help of machines or equipment, we will never conclude and end disease. Equipment can detect only chemical changes in our body.
Hunger is a basic sensation – do we have an equipment to detect it?- Pain is a symptom of disease. Can it be found out or categorised by any equipment man can make? In the name of treatment, we inflict different methods of suffering on our body. All these are tolerated by our soul! This so-called medical treatment can never see or understand the soul. 
A quote from the father of Indian Acupuncture, Dr.Fazlur Rahman, MBBS DV MD PhD (Acu): 
"There is no equipment which equals human brain (sensing)".
Only our knowledge of disease will enable us to get away from disease. To know, give your ears to the body’s language! The body never makes mistakes; never fails from its duty! Let us recall what we have gone through until now. The body never makes mistakes. The body never allows anything that harms it. The body knows to recover and rebuild on its own. Thirst and hunger are the body's needs. Water and food are only required when there is need. Anything forced into the body without requirement gets converted to waste by the body. The difficulties faced by us in waste removal are called disease. The removal of waste, when affected by drugs, leads to waste stagnation and related complications. Stagnated waste affects the function of the organs. The under-performance of affected organs develops new wastes. The developing waste and the effect of chemical drugs destroy the organs. Incurable chronic diseases engulf the earth. Waste stagnation is the reason for all disease. Waste stagnation is due to our violation of nature's law. The body never fails its duty. We have gone through all this with our general knowledge. If we have any doubts about this, we should go back now and clear it before we proceed further. What we have discussed so far is knowledge about life science. The secrets of the ancient medical systems of the world have been protected so far. We believe only when it is proved. The answer for doubts and proof for functions of the body is the body itself. If you give thought to your day-to-day activities, you will find the answer for each of them.

Understanding Health - Part 8 - Waste Stagnation causes death - கழிவுகளின் தேக்கம், மரணத்தின் நுழைவுவாயில் !!!

It's easy to say in a single phrase - Waste Stagnation. But the difficulties created by waste stagnation are not so easy to face. Waste is the mother of all disease created by us. Its character and level determines the severity. The place of stagnation helps naming it and assess the damage. 
Example: let us watch cough. What is a cough? Why do we cough? 
The under performance of lungs produce phlegm (waste) stagnation. Cough is produced to eliminate this waste! How does this sputum stagnate in the lungs?
Smoking which directly affect the lungs may cause under-performance. 
The food we eat may be too cold for the body. 
The heaviest, difficult-to-digest diet is milk. Excessive use may cause under-performance. 
Improper expulsion of faeces may cause difficulty to the lungs. 
Eating when there is no hunger may turn into gas that reaches the lungs. 

Although the basic reason is one, we can give many reasons. Our violation of natural laws affects the lungs making them struggle to perform their primary function of eliminating waste. It regains its function when it gets enough immune energy. Drinking normal pure water(not boiled), eating good fruits, getting drenched in the purest water – rain – gives immune energy to the body. This starts removing waste wherever it is. The lungs start removing phlegm, when its immune energy is strengthened. How does it remove phlegm? For babies, the phlegm is removed by vomiting or through the faeces slowly. If the quantity of phlegm is more, a cough is generated. For adults, the removal of phlegm by vomiting and faeces is less. Hence, the body eliminates through cough. Is it advisable to keep the phlegm stagnated in the lungs or to remove it? Waste should be removed from the body. Forcing it inside will damage the organs and their functions. We imagine the cough to be a disease. By suppressing the cough, we preserve the phlegm. Allowing the cough to do its duty will remove the phlegm. The cough will then go down on its own. The lungs will regain normal function. Nevertheless, we suppress the cough with chemicals. What do these drugs do? The heat of these chemicals dries the phlegm that was in the liquid condition, ready to be removed easily. The normal cough becomes a dry cough. We are convinced that the phlegm has stopped. The drugs powders the dry phlegm and deposits it in the bronchioles (micro-space in lungs). The physical change in the phlegm temporarily stops the cough for few days. This is the result of our so-called treatment. What happens to the dry phlegm? It is preserved in the body, until the body gets immune energy. The body first eliminates the chemicals used for suppressing phlegm; the liver preserves the remaining toxins. The body slowly regains its normal functions. The food, water and fruits we take develop immune force. This process of getting immune energy may take a week or even years. Again waste removal begins. In the initial stage, removing the phlegm was the only function. Now, the powder in the bronchioles has to be moisturized and turned into phlegm and then removed. Only now, we get cough with burning sensation, blood particles in the sputum etc. The waste removal after chemical intake is much more severe and intense. We say that we have caught a new cold. Soaking in the rain, eating fresh fruits are drinking normal water(not boiled) does not give us a cold. We do not recognize that the same phlegm suppressed inside the body is being removed vigorously. Again, all our efforts to put the phlegm back inside the body begin. With the help of drugs, phlegm is again powdered and preserved in the lungs. When this process continues, children get primary complex (first stage cold). Adults get tuberculosis, asthma, eosinophilia, etc. (second stage advanced disease). When sneezing is suppressed, it re-forms into sinus. Constant headache, unknown migraine, one- sided headache, etc. follow. The next stage of disease appears on the skin as psoriasis,eczema, ringworm, etc. 
What is the root cause?
1. Violation of natural laws
2. Under-activity of the organs
3. Waste stagnation
4. Suppressing waste with chemical drugs
5. Re-forming waste with chemical drugs

We gain diseases one by one through our own activities! We constantly interfere with the body, which tries to heal our violation of natural laws. Whatever we do, the body has only one thing to do – removing waste! The body never fails in its duty.

Understanding Health - Part 7 - Diseases of Exact Science - நோய்கள், நவீன அறிவியலின் பிள்ளைகள் !!!

We suffer from ailments because of some changes inside the body. Allowing the waste elimination process to complete itself is the only way to recovery & health. We have created imaginative diseases by giving names to the elimination process. We have to understand each stage of the elimination process. We should not interfere with the body with knowledge given by exact science; the body will regain its health by itself! 

Interfere... interfere! 
How do we interfere? Let us proceed to the second stage of fever.

At this stage, digestive energy is converted into immune energy according to the requirement of body. We do not feel thirst or hunger. What do we do then? In the absence of thirst, we drink; in the absence of hunger, we eat! Our knowledge says that drinking helps sweating which will reduce fever & if we are on empty stomach, we might lack energy.The immune energy fighting the disease force within the body, temporarily stops and hastily digests the food and expels it. This gives a false belief of fever reduction. The solid matter is sent to the large intestine and the water content is sent out through the skin & the kidneys - then the immune energy again rises. 
Now, the fever resumes. 
The digestive force transforming into immune energy develops a bitter taste in the mouth. What is the meaning of this bitter taste? The body hopes that we will not eat now as we can not feel the taste. But what do we do now? We force fermented bread and non-digestible milk into our mouth even though our mouth tastes bitter. The immune energy returns as digestive energy and expels the food through vomiting. The body is sternly tells us, "Go away,I am on a different duty altogether". With our knowledge of exact science, we suppress vomiting and force food into our stomach. What happens to the food inside the stomach? As already seen, dysentery replaces vomiting. Do we stop here? NO, glucose (saline) is injected into the veins. Along with poisonous drugs to stop vomiting and dysentery - to safely keep them inside the body! The body finding it difficult to fight normal waste, with the arrival of chemical drugs, is put down altogether. Waste stagnation and future diseases – the body faces these without action. The fever reduces on its own! The body does not expel the chemical toxins that have come into it. The kidneys will fail if they recycle blood with these toxins. So, the body holds the chemical toxins inside the body with the help of the liver. These toxins cause chronic liver diseases like hepatitis and other diseases. Suppressing waste at the second stage without allowing the body to expel it causes diseases later. 

Then… in the third stage?

Even now the immune energy goes to its peak? Now, the digestive energy and part of the functional energy transforms into immune energy. What happens now? Our day-to-day activities collapse, we are unable to walk, talk, speak or see and we lie down in our bed. Now our body tries to convert the whole energy of the body into immune energy - wont it? Already we have started eating when there is no digestive energy. We don't keep quiet even now! We feel pain and tiredness as the whole body has lost energy. The need for rest hardens and increases. Even then, we try to work. We try to walk when we are unable to; when the eyes are tired, we try to read and watch TV. Unable to speak, we try to talk more. These activities reduce energy further. Our activities distubs & puts down the immune energy. Immune energy temporarily stops its work and functional energy takes all the body's energy. We increase our activity further. Immune energy – to utilize functional energy – causes dizziness and brings us down.The body knows what to do and when to do it. The body is aware and decides that immune energy is of higher priority than the digestive and functional energy. Hence, it makes us faint. Keeping quiet and supporting the functions of the body will make things pleasant. But we are again impatient. We sprinkle water to get rid of the faint. We inject glucose and chemicals into the veins. The level of waste accumulation decides whether to stop the immunity function and regain consciousness or to continue the immune function silently by turning ordinary unconscious into deep unconsciousness (coma state). Only at this stage does our 'doctor' says - "we do not know when the patient will wake up, he may wake up any time!" Believing this we wait for hours, days, months even years. The body regains consciousness only after it removes all the wastes in its own pace. Nowadays, this deep unconsciousness is misguided as brain death by modern medicine. We have heard of patients regaining consciousness from coma even after many years. Present day doctors declare it as brain death - the patient being alive, the doctors cut and remove organs for donation. Only now, life leaves the body due to the removal of its organs. It's only we, who convert an ordinary fever into vomiting, dysentery, body pain, tiredness, losing mobility, unconsciousness, coma...The body's prime function is to remove stagnant waste. We do not allow the body to do this and try to preserve the waste. This stagnation is the cause of ill health. We imagine the body's functioning of removing waste to be disease. Does this mean that stagnation of waste alone is the cause of all disease? Let us understand more in the Waste Stagnation blog.

Understanding Health - Part 6 - Disease an Imagination - நோய் என்பது கற்பனையே !!!

If the human body does not make mistakes, where did diseases come from? They are the result of our violation of natural laws! Does it mean that the body simply notices all our violation or does it warn us? It gives us severe warnings each time. We choose to ignore it. The energy of a healthy person functions in three ways – functional, digestive and immune. Our violations interfere with and destabilize this equal distribution. Instead of eating when there is hunger, a person takes food without it. If this continues without any concern for digestion, he ruins his health. Finding no time to remove stored waste; the body repeatedly expels food comes that enters it without proper digestion. Waste stagnates abnormally till the body cannot perform even regular activities (at this stage, fever occurs). Waste can stagnate in any part of the body. Also, the waste may be of different kinds. Faeces, urine, mucous/phlegm, air, etc. the body takes prompt action to remove them from where they have stagnated. 
To remove the waste, heat energy has to increase from its normal level. To remove waste stagnated in some part of an organ, gradual heat increase is stimulated all over the body – which appears as fever. 
The fever - is it a disease or an action to remove waste? This fever alters the energy distribution of the body. The energy gained is distributed evenly for functional, digestive and restoring process.

Digestion - 33%
Functional - 33%
Immune or Restoring - 33%

The energy received by the body from food, water and air is assumed to be 99% normally. Of this, 33% each is distributed to digestive, functional and restoring processes. 
The waste removal process takes place as below : 
Stage 1 : If the quantity and character of the stagnant waste is within 33%, the body’s restoring energy is sufficient. We notice nothing when this waste is expelled. The occasional headache, stomachache, light temperature or uneasiness is the symptom of this waste removal. These symptoms occur and disappear spontaneously. Everyone has experienced this. This is within the limits of the immune energy; hence, we do not get fever at this stage.
Stage 2 : If the quantity and character of waste is 50%, the immune energy generates a fever. Now, the fever is an emergency energy distribution block made by the body for its purposes.The immune energy is spent by the process and the body takes help from the digestive energy. The 33% digestive energy changes into immune energy. The body informs us of this energy transformation – hunger is reduced when digestive energy changes into immune energy. As the main functions of digestive energies – thirst and hunger are reduced, the body is able to transform digestive energy into immune energy. The patient with severe fever feels no thirst and hunger. When the favoured elimination takes place, assimilation stops. This is the body's nature. Is it not true that we feel the energy distribution in the body in the above process?
Stage 3 : The immune and digestive energies together remove the waste. At this stage, we lose the feelings of thirst and hunger. If the quantity of waste is more than these two energies, what will the body do? At last, the body converts a portion of the functional energy into immune energy. 
Why is only a portion converted? Involuntary functions such as heartbeat, respiration and functions of the internal organs are necessary for life. Only a portion of functional energy, other than that required for important organs, is converted into immune energy. The change in functional energy causes immobility of external functions. We are unable to talk or walk. We experience this when we have high temperatures of fever. If the waste elimination continues, the patient may feel giddiness. Coma or deep sleep is the last step of defense taken by the body.The waste elimination process continues; gradually functional and digestive energy return.The patient’s eyes slowly open and the body permits external functions to recover gradually. When the complete function returns, first, it gives us thirst, then hunger. This shows the victory of the body.The body teaches us gradually to understand its internal functions as its principal duty. It is because we are the first enemy of the body.

Understanding Health - Part 5 - Creation & Protection - ஆக்கமும் பராமரிப்பும்

The basic function of the body is to get energy for living. Getting energy requires eating and excreting. 

"மருந்தென வேண்டாவாம் யாக்கைக்கு அருந்தியது
அற்றது போற்றி உனின்."

"Confirm and consider the earlier intake and the waste excretion are done before taking food" – says Thiruvalluvar, Tamil Saint Poet. Intake and expulsion only gives energy. What are the uses of this energy? How is this energy utilised? The energy acquired through food, water and respiration (nose and skin) are utilized by the body in three ways.
1. Functional energy ------ }
2. Digestive energy ------ } Equal Energy Distribution
3. Immune or restoring energy ------ }

1. Functional Energy : The energy required for our day-day functions. Functional energy is used for involuntary functions of the internal organs and voluntary functions such us moving the limbs, blinking, talking, etc. Seeing with our eyes, hearing through the ears, smelling with the nose, using the hands, the legs – functional energy is the basis for all these activities.
2. Digestive energy : The food we eat, the air we respire is digested. Energy is replenished by the digestive energy. If digestion is improper, the energy required for the whole body suffers. The other functions of energy, functional and immune energies – also rely on this digestive energy.
3. Immune or Restorative Energy : This is the maintenance energy of the body.
a. Functional and digestive energies produce routine wastes in the body. Immune energy safely removes these wastes without causing any pains to the body.
b. The internal and external organs are replenished after routine activities by immune energy.
c. To restore affected parts of the body; immune energy removes accumulated waste and restores parts affected by the stagnation of waste. 

This is the proper energy distribution of a healthy body. Healthiness lies in their equal distribution.The body does not need anyone's help for this natural function. Do we need any help to talk, walk and see? No, we don't need anyone for our functioning. The body informs us of hunger and thirst. We give food and water to it. The body doesn't need anyone's help for these activities. The body identifies poisoned food and expels it; resists impure air. It also expels waste and regenerates cells. Are those the only function of the body? No, the body that is affected by our violation of natural laws is also rectified and rejuvenated by it. If we cut our finger, do we bleed and lose all our blood? No, within minutes, the body clots the blood and stops the loss of precious, necessary blood. At anytime the body only removes waste, it never removes even a cell that is necessary to it. Remember the dysentery, vomiting and sneezing we discussed in the previous topics, what do they tell us? They show that the body removes waste from the body! What do we understand from blood clotting? The body does not allow the drain of anything that is essential. Yet, today we suffer from so many diseases? Why is this so? We already know that the body is in no way the reason for it.
“If we doubt a thing we already know, it only gives undesired sufferings” – Thiruvalluvar. We are reaping the benefit of our doubt.

Understanding Health - Part 4 - Fate Prevails - இயற்கை விதியை, மதியால் என்றுமே வென்றுவிட முடியாது !!!

It is ridiculous to understand fate as something written on one’s forehead. Fate represents the harmonious, orderly function and laws of nature. Fate means limits and boundaries.The microcosm is the macrocosm – just as man is made out of the same elements as the universe. The universal pattern represents the body. The body's pattern represents the universe. Each internal organ, functions in order and in harmony with the laws of nature. Medical studies or incising the body is not necessary to know the body's nature and the functions of the internal organs. The basic sense of thought is sufficient. Theories in books are of no use. Knowledge does not require school education. Is stomach alone enough for digestion? No, the whole body helps in digestion. How?
1. After chewing, food passes through the food pipe and enters the stomach.
2. The spleen, right from chewing, absorbs food energy.
3. The bile helps digestion, secretes and comes from liver and gall bladder.
4. The food particles are broken down in the small intestine which metabolize and absorb the energy; the rest is sent to the large intestine.
5. The large intestine again removes energy in the undigested food and then solidifies it into faeces before sending it into the rectum with the help of the lungs.
6. The energy absorbed by the spleen and small intestine is fed into the cells by the heart with the aid of blood circulation.
7. Kidneys recycle and absorb the energy in the waste. The left over is expelled through the urinary bladder.
These are the known functions of digestion. We understand that the entire body performs digestion not one or two organs. Every organ of the body, in keeping with its natural laws and in harmony, aids the functioning of the body. All functions in nature never violate their laws; we by our intelligence can neither change nor control it. Understanding the basic law of the body is sufficient to understand the activity of each organ in relation to the body. Studying the functionality of individual organs is actually not required.

Understanding Health - Part 3 - Eat hunger - பசியை சாப்பிடு !!!

Everyone likes eating. Fine, when should we eat? 'On time' would be the answer from everyone. What time is it? We have already seen there are two views, inner view (thought) and the external view (scientific).If we give a shape to time in the external view, it becomes a clock. We eat promptly according to the time shown by the clock. This is wrong. The inner view (sense) is 'the time when we have hunger'. With these two definitions, which is acceptable? To find out, we'll go back to food. Why do we eat? The body needs it! If so, should we eat when we have hunger or when the clock ticks? Eat when there is hunger – this is reasonable. When we give food to the body according to its need – the body converts it to energy and helps us. When food is given according to the clock, the body rejects unnecessary food. Food is converted to waste and expelled without digestion. Feeling hunger is the body's basic language. Nowadays, many people rarely feel hunger. Before we eat, we should taste hunger. Eating after hunger fulfills our body's need. 
In recent times, there is a practice of drinking litres of water early in the morning, in the name of Naturopathy. Just as the feeling of hunger requires food, the feeling of thirst needs water. Drink water without thirst early in the morning. The first time you attempt this, the body rejects it with a vomiting sensation. Don't we already know that vomiting is the body’s act of rejection?Drinking without thirst and eating without hunger is violating nature. If we continue these practices as science based, what will happen?
1. When you feel hunger and you don't eat, hunger rejects you. You will lose the feeling of hunger.
2. If you eat when there is no hunger – you will hate food. You can't eat, when there is hunger.
3. If you drink when there is no thirst – thirst rejects water. Even if you drink litres of water, your thirst is never satisfied.
4. When there is thirst and you don't drink, thirst rejects you. You will lose the feeling of thirst.
If we continue to lose the feeling of thirst and hunger, the body allows all problems, starting from indigestion to diabetes. 

Thirst, hunger, sleep are the natural needs of the body. If we understand the needs of the body and assist it, health is prolonged. ‘Sound body, sound mind’ is a well-known phrase. Healthy thought comes only from a healthy body. An unhealthy body creates negative feelings. Sorrow, grief, fear, anger, emptiness, pride are not natural human feelings; they are created by diseased thought of a diseased body. Lets cherish the body to cherish life!

Understanding Health - Part 2 - Immunity is Life - எதிர்பாற்றலே உயிர் !!!

When did the body get the strength of protecting and healing itself? A newborn informs us of hunger and thirst by crying. The body’s expression of need becomes the language of the body or the voice of health. We feed the newborn with mother's milk or water. The baby stops crying and returns to its natural state when its hunger or thirst is satisfied. When there is insufficient mother's milk, cow milk is given. Assume that the cow milk is spoilt. We are unknowingly feeding the child with this spoilt milk. What should the child's body do now? The body should not allow anything that harms it to enter it, isn't it? Now, watch the child. Within minutes of drinking the milk, the child vomits. The spoilt milk is rejected and completely cleared out of the child's body. Does the newborn's body have the strength of protecting itself? Any outsider required to teach this to the body? Immunity is Life inside a human. Nobody or nothing is required to teach the body. In fact, we can learn many things from the child. The body has complete knowledge of its well-being as a gift by birth. It grows with the inherent knowledge that it should accept the good and resist the bad. Outbursts of sneezing against dust or vomiting of spoilt milk are symptoms of good health. The body's full potential for life becomes known by its immunity. The body without immunity is nothing but a corpse. We mistakenly treat this immune response of the body as disease. Believing good health to be disease, is this not a stupid belief? This scientific stupidity blocks awareness of the body’s nature. A sneeze does irritate the nose and the body. This irritation or the disease that dust can cause – which is more severe? the body decides. Spontaneously, the body takes action. Stomach pain or gastritis, the burning sensation in the mouth and throat, due to vomiting; are not deadlier than spoilt milk. The body decides this to expel the spoilt milk. The body executes its task by itself. The body has no knowledge of ‘materialistic’ manners to do this. Since knowledge exists only to assist the body, the body is not controlled by knowledge. Every activity of the body makes us aware of the harmonious function of nature. If we suppress symptoms with knowledge that was taught to us, our body rebels against the knowledge too. When the spoilt food is given to the body, the body expels it by vomiting. This vomiting can be stopped or suppressed by our knowledge. Spoilt food can be sent into the body by taking an anti-suppressant pill or by changing the taste of the food(ex. Pickle). The body still does not bow to human knowledge. The food sent in, through the food-pipe to the stomach, is sent out, via the small intestine to the large intestine without proper digestion. Dysentery occurs. The body at any stage does not accept anything that harms it. It expels it. The easier act of vomiting when suppressed becomes severe dysentery. Anything expelled by the body is harmful and is against its nature. Allowing this expulsion is good for health. You can control vomiting and get dysentery. If you control the dysentery, you will have to face the worst. Bad health is due to knowledge which does not assist the body. What do we learn from these activities of the body? The body never makes mistakes.Allowing the body to do its duty brings good health. This is the best way of enhancing IMMUNITY.

Understanding Health - Part 1 - Health is Strength - ஆரோக்கியமே பலம் !!!

Well-being is health and a disease-free life. Our body’s complete health is strength.The outer muscular appearance or a well-built body alone doesn't determine health. The internal functioning of the body determines health. Moreover, Health is the natural state of the body and is lasting. The build of the body is a false appearance and temporary. Health is not in the appearance; understanding this makes us clear about the definition of health. Material or exact science believes only what it sees and concludes by assumption. Life science (material plus spiritual) understands and accepts what it has experienced. We have been pushed into the mindset of material science. Only turning to natural(life) science can give us well-being. Our body's language is linked to nature. 
What is nature? 'A series of coincidental events' is a lesson implanted in us. Nature is not a coincidence; it is an orderly state of perfect motion. Many of our ancestors understood the harmonious character of nature. They used it for their well-being. They did not live as material scientists inventing new products. They were life scientists who understood the mysteries of nature. 
'Nature does not make mistake' - clearly understanding this is the basic lesson. Understanding the body through the vastness i.e., nature, is difficult. Understanding nature through our body that is familiar to us is simple. Therefore, let us come back to the basic lesson. If 'Nature does not make mistake', let us begin with the 'Body does not make mistake'. A healthy person walks into a dusty cotton mill or some factory. His nose inhales the dusty air. Immediately, there is an outburst of heavy sneezing. It is easy for modern material science to simply call the sneezing 'dust allergy'. What is the reason for sneezing? If the nostril allows the dust to enter, it will reach the lungs. It could have caused many acute and chronic lung defects. What is good – allowing the dust into the lungs? or outing it? Our body will never allow anything that can harm it into itself. This is the nature of the body. Identifying the dust that may cause it harm, the body outs it by sneezing. We do not understand nature. Our body has the wondrous capacity to protect and heal itself. All the actions of the body have our well-being at their centre. So let us try to understand the functionality of our body by its behavior at various circumstances in the forthcoming topics.
