"Ayurveda is a deep awareness of your own existence and life itself" - Dr. Ram Manohar.
Ayurveda has been plagued by various interpretations and misconceptions over the last century and has been relegated to status of alternate medicine for the longest time now. But what is the true essence of this ancient science and how is it relevant in our lives. Join me in conversation with Dr. Ram Manohar, who has dedicated his life to the study and research in the science of Ayurveda. Listen in to his fascinating experience of the Gurukul system!
Dr. P. Ram Manohar is the Research Director of Amrita School of Ayurveda and has been contributing in the field of Ayurvedic research for the last 29 years. He has to his credit more than 100 research papers published in journals. The most notable of them is a research study to scientifically evaluate the efficacy of Ayurveda in rheumatoid arthritis which was conducted in collaboration with the University of Washington, Seattle, University of California, Los Angeles and AVP, Coimbatore. The outcomes of this study were published in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases and Journal of Clinical Rheumatology and won the prestigious Excellence in Integrative Medicine Research Award from the European Society of Integrative Medicine. He received his BAMS degree from Bharathiyar University, Coimbatore, in 1991 and MD (Ay) degree from Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, Bengaluru, in 2001.
