Health is still the greatest human good. Medical progress and a high standard of living make almost anything desirable possible: health can be bought. Health has become a product, annoying symptoms are to be made to disappear as quickly as possible.

Traditional Indian medicine - known in the West primarily under the name Ayurveda - cultivates a differentiated understanding of health. It is not just the body that counts, but also the mind. And the soul also needs to be nurtured - even if it is not visible on X-ray images.
