Restaurant
At Purnagram, food,
strictly vegetarian, is given prime
consideration, as it is directly
related to treatment. It will be of
2 types. A principal meal relative
to all the three doshas (Vatha,
Pitta, Kapha) for breakfast, lunch
and dinner. Specific food (drinking
water,
Herbal tea, fruits, salads,
soups,etc.) related to treatment of
diseases and according to the dosha
constitution of the patient. They
will be based on Ayurvedic
principles. The main feature of the
food is that it will be made out of
vegetables and fruits organically
grown.

Ayurveda, the science of life and
longevity has a history as long as a
human civilization and even beyond.
Ayurveda was perfected by astute
minds and adept hands and is aimed
at the physical, mental and
spiritual well being of human
beings. Ayurveda is one of the great
gifts of the sages of ancient India
to mankind and is accepted as the
oldest scientific medical system,
with a long record of clinical
experience. Ayurveda is the original
contribution of India (Bharatha) to
the world and treats man as a whole
- which is a combination of body,
mind and soul.
Its written history takes definite
shape with the codification of
hundreds of slokas of Ayur-Vedic
wisdom into 'Samhitas'. Its highly
integrated approach is evident from
the way Ayurvedic treatment wes
divided into eight segments such as
Kaya Chikitsa (General medicine),
Bala Chikitsa (Pediatrics), Graha
Chikitsa (Psychiatry), Urdgwanga
Chikitsa (ENT, Ophthalmology), Salya
Chikitsa (Surgery), Damshtra
Chikitsa (Toxicology), Jara Chikitsa
(Geriatrics) and Vrisha Chikitsa
(Aphrodisiac treatment).
It offers simple, effective and
practical principles of preventive
medicines (Swasthavritha) with
Dinacharya (daily regimens),
ritucharya (seasonal regimens) along
with sound dietary (nutritional)
practices / regulation as also with
principles of satvrita (good
conduct) (mental approach).
In addition to the above, Ayurveda
offers other modalities for preser vation
and promotion of good health and to
mention a few
• PANCHAKARMA :
Purification process.
• Rasayana Concept and practise
(rejuvenation) to take not only
diseases but the address
effects of aging.
• Rasayana can also assist in
countering the harmful effects of
stress, environmental pollution,
long term chemotherapy, immunological defficiencies etc..
• The essence of ayurveda is that it
offers in this modern technological
age a whole new way of
life to find harmony and balance not only within one self but also
in relating to environment,
nature, society and fellow beings.
Vedas are regarded as the
oldest scripts or records of
knowledge known to man. They are
stated to be of divine origin and
given to mankind through the Rishis
or seers of wisdom and thereafter
transmitted from generation to
generation.
There are 4 Vedas namely: Rig, Yajur,
Sama, Adharva, which have come down
to us through several thousands of
years of oral transmission before
finally being recorded in writing.
Ayurveda is considered as the branch
of Adharvaveda. Ayurvedic scholars
from subsequent generations
collected the materials scattered in
the Vedas and arranged them
symmetrically to form Samhithas
(Collections). Some of them are:
