Ayurveda and religion in Canada: a critical look at New Age Ayurveda from the Indian diaspora perspectiveAbraham, Natalia January 2003 (has links)
This thesis examines how physicians in the Indian diaspora living in Canada---both those trained in Ayurveda in India (vaidyas) and those trained in Western medicine in India (MDs)---view the practice of Ayurveda in Canada. More specifically, it examines how their views have been influenced by New Age thought in general and Transcendental Meditation in particular and how these perceptions reflect the changing relation of religion and Ayurvedic medicine. It is the intent of this thesis to show that Ayurveda in Canada exists mainly as part of the greater New Age movement, as a transformed system that is inspired by both Hinduism and New Age thought, and that this transformation of Ayurveda evokes two distinct responses from Indian diaspora medical personnel in Canada---one unsupportive and one partially supportive. To the dismay of "traditional" Indians and to the praise of "modern" Indians, New Age Ayurvedic organizations strongly emphasize their version of "spirituality" as the primary goal of Ayurveda, whereas Indian forms of Ayurveda---both in the past and today---generally approach religion and spirituality secondarily. Thus, the role of religion and spirituality become major controversial issues in New Age Ayurveda. From the "traditional" point of view, the commercial achievements of New Age organizations (such as the Transcendental Meditation Movement) are not indicative of a successful introduction of Ayurveda in North America and run contrary to classical Ayurvedic principles, with regard to religious and medical practice. But, from the "modern" point of view, the New Age Ayurvedic emphasis on spirituality is indicative of an inevitable evolution of the system in North America.

Āyurveda et Yoga : etude de l’Ayurvedasûtra commenté par Yogânandanâtha / Āyurveda and Yoga : Study of Āyurveda-sūtra with commentary of YogānandanāthaBhandari, Surender 27 June 2013 (has links)
Le présent travail est consacré à un ouvrage de médecine indienne classique, l’Ayurveda.Il s’agit de l’Āyurveda-sūtra, écrite en style aphoristique, édité et publié par l’Oriental Research Institute de Mysore en 1922, puis réédité en 1988,grâce aux manuscrits sur feuilles de palme trouvés chez les médecins locaux ayurvédiques. Au-delà de cette édition, le texte n’a fait jusqu’à présent l’objet d’aucune étude, alors que, comme le remarque la somme récente de G.J. Meulenbeld, l’une de ses caractéristiques principales est qu’il propose des liens importants entre l’Ayurveda et la science du Yoga, et qu’il est le seule connu à avoir pour objectif d’intégrer ces deux disciplines. Il montre comment les différents types de nourritures augmentent les qualités sattva, rajas et tamas et comment les pratiques du yoga influencent les conditions du corps. D’ailleurs, l’éditeur Shamasastry le qualifie d’oeuvre unique où « ...il y a autant d’efficacité attribuée à la théorie du ‘jeûne’ et de la ‘respiration profonde’ …». Mais limiter l’Āyurveda-sūtra à une théorie du « jeûne » et de la « respiration profonde » semble très réducteur. Notre étude s’attache à montrer que cette oeuvre va bien au-delà de ces aspects. En effet, dans la partie ayurvédique, elle traite de l’importance et de la signification même de la nourriture et de ses effets sur le corps et sur l’esprit, tels qu’ils sont exposés dans plusieurs Upaniṣad. Dans la partie yoga, elle aborde des concepts dispersés dans les Upaniṣad traitant non seulement du contrôle du souffle mais également d’autres notions ésotériques telles que l’éveil de la kuṇḍalinī l’action des lotus dans le corps, etc. / The present study is dedicated to a work in the field of Indian Classical Medicine, Ayurveda. It concerns the Āyurvedasūtra,written in aphoristic style, edited and published by Oriental Research Institute of Mysore in the year 1922,further reedited in 1988, with the help of palm leaf manuscripts found with local Ayurveda physicians. Apart from thisedition, this text has till today not been studied even though, as has been observed in a recent compendium by DoctorJan Meulenbeld, one of its principal characteristics is that it proposes important relation between Ayurveda and theScience of Yoga, and is the only one so far known that aims at integrating these two fields. It shows how the differenttypes of food increase the sattva, rajas and tamas qualities and how the practice of yoga influences the bodyconditions. Moreover, editor R. Shamasastry qualifies it as a unique work where « …so much efficacy is attached to thetheory of fasting and deep-breathing….». But to limit this work to a “theory of fasting” and “deep breathing” isabsolutely insufficient. The present study pays marked attention to show that this work goes much beyond theseaspects. Indeed, in the ayurvedic portion, it deals with the importance and even the significance of food and its effectson body and mind, as exposed in several upaniṣad. In the yoga portion, it treats the concepts scattered in the upaniṣaddealing with not only the breath control but also the esoteric doctrines such as awakening of the kuṇḍalinī, action of thelotus in the body etc.

Ayurveda, state and society in colonial North India, 1895-1947Berger, Rachel January 2008 (has links)
In this thesis I examine the historical development of the composite of theories and practices which became modern Ayurveda, a South Asian medical system. I draw a distinction between the systems of knowledge production about the body and the institutionalisation of medical practice. This allows me to examine how both processes contributed to the development of South Asian national identity in the early twentieth century. I do this through an examination of governmental (at both the central and provincial level) negotiations of Ayurveda contrasted with popular understandings, in order to examine the meaning of Ayurveda as a knowledge system and as lived practice in the late colonial period. Chapter 1 traces the evolution of Ayurveda from its inception as an idea in the Atharvaveda to the end of the Mughal period, framing its importance as a textual tradition overseen by Brahman Pandits, but also as a lived medical practice associated with complicated ties to religious, ethnic, or community identity. In Chapter 2, I investigate the history of Ayurveda from 1780 until the end of the nineteenth century, focusing on its relationship to the colonial state. Chapter 3 explores a shift in attitude on the part of the Imperial Government beginning in 18995, when the Indigenous Drugs Committee was created in order to explore the potential contribution of Ayurvedic ‘knowledge’ to the development of an Indian-based pharmacological industry, juxtaposed with the imposition of medical regulatory acts that limited the practice of the indigenous medical systems in the Provinces of British India. Chapter 4 explores the development of a discourse about medicine in Hindi-language popular publishing. Chapter 5 traces the development of a legislative framework established to incorporate the adoption of the indigenous medical services through several significant political periods. Chapter 6 explores the functioning of some of the institutions developed, and reflects upon the social and cultural concerns that framed the unfolding of institutions.
