Ayurveda Identifies Three Root Causes of Illness, Emphasizing Lifestyle Changes Over Symptom Treatment
Summary
Ayurveda identifies three root causes of illness focusing on lifestyle changes, digestive fire, and dosha balance rather than just symptom treatment.
Key Points
- Ayurveda identifies three root causes of illness: intellectual misconduct, digestive fire destruction, and dosha imbalance.
- Pragya Aparadha, or intellectual misconduct, includes harmful habits like wrong eating and lack of rest, leading to disease.
- Destruction of digestive fire weakens digestion and energy, causing toxin buildup in the body.
- Imbalance of the three doshas due to toxin accumulation results in various diseases, emphasizing lifestyle improvements to prevent illness recurrence.
