Ayurveda





Today we visited an Ayurvedic school here in Trivandrum. Pretty interesting approach to medicine, but difficult for me to swallow. I guess it's just my years of training in a scientific approach to medical care. Anyway, they do some pretty cool stuff at the center. They essentially operate a small charity hospital and feed 1000 people free lunch every day. Good stuff for the community. I'm still trying to figure out the picture thing. The first picture is from the factory that makes the commercially available Ayurvedic compounds. It reminds me of Laverne and Shirley. The second picture is the place where the poor people can come get a free lunch. The third picture is from the herbal garden at the center. It's a good thing I came here because I have really been looking for a good uterine tonic. The last picture is the front of the complex.
