Astrology, Prakriti Therapy ( Naturopathy ) & Holistic
Medicine
In the Holistic Model, the cause of any disease is
understood in terms of the whole person and not in terms of
a particular organ or tissue. As Sir William Osler put it,
it is more import to know the patient who has the disease
than the disease of the patient. The one person who knows
about the patient more than anybody else is the patient
himself. Peter and Elizabeth Allbright in Body Mind &
Spirit state that " responsibility for healthcare rests in
the patient's hands because that is where the knowledge &
control of the variables lie (
diet,stress,exercise,genetics,emotion,medication) ". " Food
is medicine; Medicine is food " said Hippocrates and
Upanishads declare that " Food is Brahman. Food was verily
born before all creatures: therefore it is called the
medicine for all". By stating that food is the panacea for
all ills and illnesses the Upanishads have formulated one
of the foundational principles of holistic health. At least
half the diseases & ailments of man can be traced directly
or indirectly to the problems of food. Diet control is the
basic principle of Naturopathy. Nature is the Doctor and
natural foods can cure ailments. Nature & Naturopathy are
ruled by Jupiter, the planet of Wisdom. In India Jyotish,
Ayurveda, Prakriti Therapy are all interrelated disciplines
and part of esoterica. Astrology can bring tranquillity to
the patient by showing him how the cohesive forces of
Destiny operate. The patient can achieve what Keats called
the Negative Capability - a stoic indifference to pleasure
and pain.
To bear all naked truths, That envisage Circumstance, all
calm That is the top of sovereignty.
By accepting the divine decrees of Fate the patient can feel
the inner calmness and achieve an altered state ( EEG brain
waves at 8.5 cycles per second - alpha state ). In this
altered state natural healing chemicals called endorphins
are secreted into the blood system and healing takes place
naturally.

Astrology , Yoga & Pranic Healing
Yoga was defined by Aurobindo as a methodic process towards
self-perfection through a development of the latent
potential at the five levels of Being - physical, vital,
mental, intellectual & spiritual. Astrology by studying the
heavenly archetype can show how this latent potential of
the human being can be unfolded. Jupiter & Mercury rules
over intellectual development, Moon mental, Mars physical,
Venus vital & Saturn spiritual.

the Universal Life-Force Energy known as the Cosmic Prana.
