Guest guest Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 Hi Group, There was a discussion on Upvedas, particularly, related to Atahrva Veda, I contacted an scholar Dr.Thrigulla Saketh Ram,Hyderabad, he has written following, He is a Ayurved Doctor too. regards, Lalit. --- Namaskar, I think I can answer the first question. Ayurveda is Upaveda of Atharvaveda and not Rigveda. All the Ayurved Samhitas-Charaka, Susruta and Vagbhata clearly state that Ayurveda is upveda of Atharvaveda. Purnas Like Brahmavaiarta, Vishnu purnana also confirm the same. With Regards Dr.Thrigulla Saketh Ram Ayurvedacharya(BAMS), Ayurved Vachaspati(MD) Hyderabad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 Hello group: Ayurvedic doctor would have probably studied in some Indian University where we read distorted version of our own history with controversies.......I honestly feel that this issue need not have been raked up. I repeat...there are enough scholars here in this very forum.....The Ayurvedic Doctor from this forum also said what the " scholar " that Lalith has consulted said.....He also confessed that it was what was taught to them in their college....The scholar that Lalith refers to also will also obviously say the same thing that he learnt during his first year of college! I have already written in the group that Rig Vedic Scholars who have done adhyayanaa in the traditional form from Kerala have also studied Ayur veda as their upa vedaa. I leave it to the group to decide whether they are going to go by the version of the so called scholar who would have doubtless been following what has been taught to him by his University for 5 years or by the version of Vedic Scholars who come from a long line of vedic experts of the particular veda and spend all their life in mastering their subject. I think if there is a doubt regarding my house, my version should hold good! More importantly, Shri Chandrasekara Saraswathy - the revered Paramaachaaryaa (many senior members of this group will definitely remember the Great Sage of Kaanchi) - a scholar of many subjects and a Saint has clearly stated in his lectures that Ayur Veda is the Upa Veda of Rig Veda. I would prefer such " researches " and enquiries to " self-certified " scholars be kept to concerned members themselves because they are patently wrong. I am sorry. I do not mean to enter into controversy, but even after my clarifying the point, the point has been raised. Writing a book is not a fool-proof indicator of scholastic abilities; nor does practising a subject mean that the person knows ALL about his subject's history. I mean no offence to anyone here. My only intention is that the group should not be mislead. Please do not treat this as an egoistic exchange between Lalith Mishra and myself....no......He stated his views based on his limited experience and by approaching the person who is the best person whom he could contact as he is a software engineer and does not know vedic traditions or paatashaalaas. Whereas I am an old keraleeya Brahmin from an orthodox Rig Vedic family (Rig Veda is my veda and I come from a line of ayurvedic practitioners), and had access to Veda Paatashaalaas where they REALLY teach vedas in pristine form, and also the Great Saint of Kaanchi who obviously must know what He was speaking with all his siddhis and shastraic knowledge! Let the Group decide whether they are going to follow the Jagat Guru's version or the modern doctor's version. I am no one to comment on this anymore. Blessings to everyone.
