− | The whole premise of Ayurveda is the maintaining a state of health that would help an individual attain salvation. To achieve such a state of health requires harmony (samya) between the person (purusha) and the environment around him, or rather, the entire universe (loka). Per Ayurveda, health cannot be defined only as the absence of disease within the human body, but rather, a state of consciousness where the person identifies himself with the universe, and gets detached from worldly emotions of bliss and grief (while still being able to discern the good and the bad, and avoiding the company of those who cling onto worldly feelings of attachment, ego, vanity, greed, etc.). | + | The whole premise of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayurveda Ayurveda] is the maintaining a state of health that would help an individual attain salvation.

− | The neurologist Dr.Wiebers in his book “Theory of reality” coined the terms ‘C’ unit is the unit of consciousness in human body and ‘C’ field is the cosmic consciousness. The C unit is always connected with C field to carry out certain functions. The person is a unit of cosmos. Ayurveda narrates Human beings are a microcosm of the planet and exhibit holographic phenomenon. The Self conscious i.e. ‘C’ unit is a unitary part of ‘C’ field [consciousness] in the cosmos. This C unit is controlling and regulating intellect, that controls mind; and this mind controls sense organs which lead the body as the horses lead a chariot. The interaction C field with C unit for fetching positive energy from cosmos is utmost important. Empowerment of the self conscious for communication with intellect in brain and mind seated at Heart is important mechanism for mental health in holistic view. Therefore promotion of positive mental health shall be focused with a holistic view of all these factors thinking beyond reductionist’s approaches of neurotransmitter, endocrinal and genetic biological theories. Hologram for mental health, the constituents of Human being that make the Humans real “Humans” are considered vital for complete health. | + | The neurologist Dr.Wiebers in his book “Theory of reality” coined the terms ‘C’ unit is the unit of consciousness in human body and ‘C’ field is the cosmic consciousness.
