learning Ayurveda in India

[Guest guest]

Hello Cybervaidya.<br>I would like to learn

Ayurveda in a college in India. But I am a foreigner, and

never yet were in India.<br>Could you please tell ,how

is it possible to become an Ayurvedic doctor for a

foreigner? And what is necessary to enter to a college?

[Guest guest]

Dear Yoginank<br>It depens on how much you wish

to learn.<br>There are a few universities offering

regular bachelor's degree in ayurveda as well as some

short time diploma's.<br>They have special batches and

programs for foriegner's.<br>Also there are many

institute's offering private tuitions in ayurveda, though you

cannot practise ayurveda in the conventional sense if

you learn from there. But for personal knowledge and

for grasping the basics they are good.<br>The main

university of ayurved which is in the state of Gujrat has

many special programs besides regular bachelor's

degree and diploma's for foriegner's. Actually they have

a web-site which used to show up in the results of

search engines if you searched for Gujrat Ayurved

university. But for some reason it is not showing up now.

Unfortunately I had not noted down the address then. As soon as

I get it I will inform you.<br>Meanwhile you can

have some idea of the university from information kept

at various other sites. Just type Gujrat Ayurved

University in any search engine and follow the

links.<br><br>Cybervaidya.

Dear Cybervaidya.<br>Thank you very

much.<br>Could you help me a little more, because here where I

am, it is very hard to get some information about

such kind of things.<br>I would be intrested to learn

Ayurveda on the level of being a doctor. Could you,

please, tell me that exams are necessary to enter in a

university to study for bachelor's degree?

Can you give me some details as to where you are

at present, what are your present qualifications,

whether you would be able to spent 5 years in India

etc.<br>I am trying to get the web-address of the gujrat

ayurved university for you.<br><br>Cybervaidya

I am from the middle of Russia. I am 19, and I finished only school. And I could

spend 5 years in India.<br>Thank you for helping.

Dear yogiank,<br>What do you mean by only

school?<br>Here in India in order to get admission to BAMS

(Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery), you have to

pass the 10+2 scheme according to Indian

standard.<br>You will have to confirm from your local university

whether the course you have done is on par with the 10+2

scheme or HSC in India.<br>Meanwhile I am trying to get

more information for you.<br><br>Cybervaidya

Dear Cybervaidya.<br>By school I meant only

school (10 years). For me Yoga is the main thing, and I

would like to learn Ayurveda on the level that would

help me in teaching Yoga, like Krishamacharya. I am

not really interested in modern western medicine to

study in for 2 years, and it would be nice if I could

help people to restore their health, but not by using

syrgery, but with more natural, sattvic methods(like

herbs). I guess it would mean to help people in

disbalance to further then 4th stage of disease.<br>What you

would recommend me in this case? <br>Thank you.
