Gemstones are miracles of nature and the supreme consciousness has embedded healing qualities into each of the gemstone. Ayurveda - literally translated as the
Science of longetivity is the holistic, traditional system of Indian medicine that aims to bring health and happiness to the individual.
According to the sacred texts and the system of Ayurveda, all matter is composed of the Panch Maha Bhutas - the 5 elements. These 5 basic elements/ panch maha bhutas are:
- Earth also known as Prithvi
- Water also known as Jal
- Fire also known as Agni
- Wind also known as Vayu
- Ether/Space also known as Akasha
The structural element of the Human Body is made of the 5 basic elements which combine together in various forms to make the functional aspect of the human body.
The three basic functional aspects which are also known as Tridoshas in Ayurveda get formed in the following manner:
- VATA Element: Ether+Air
- PITTA Element: Fire+Water
- KAPHA Element: Water+ Earth
These 3 tridoshas or functional aspects of the human body are present in each human being and govern the biological, pathological, psychological changes in the body. Each individual will have a unique combination of these 3 dosha's producing a distinct personality. Each cell, tissue, organ, organ system will also have its own unique combination of these tridoshas.
VATA Element:
This is the most important all of the elements because VATA is primarily that element that causes all movement in the body and the imbalance in vata causes imbalance in kapha and pitta also. All eliminations of the body including excretion of urine and faeces and relay of all sensory input from the sense organs to the brain is controlled by the VATA element.
Gemstones and balance of the tridoshas:
Gemstones also are composed of the panch mahabootas and have been used in the Indian system of healing since eons. They fortify the immune system, re calibrate the dosha imbalance and bring the human body and mind in the state of homeostasis and harmony. Identification of correct dosha and recommendation of the correct gemstone brings in tangible and quantifiable results.
