Imagine you are driving down a road lined with trees, flowers, and tall grass. The wind is soft and inviting. Suddenly, your car breaks down owing to a malfunction. There is no mechanic nearby and hence, you are stuck on the beautiful road. Now you can’t move forward. Plus, you can’t continue to enjoy the beauty around you.
This is an example of our life. The car is our body, and the beautiful road and greenery are the many happiness and privileges of life. When we become ill, we stop enjoying our life filled with blessings, joy, and love.
- What makes us ill?
- What are we doing wrong to invite diseases to the home of our souls?
- Is there a way to bounce back to health and stay that way?
All these questions and more that you haven’t even thought of are answered in great detail in simple language in this book about Ayurveda, which is an ancient text about healthy living.
