Ayurveda Music

Since the primordial Vedic period, Ayurveda has been practiced in India as a system of traditional healing. This system is still practiced in South Asia as a form of alternative medicine where it is has enormous influence. This traditional healing system has been evolving throughout its existence and is now acknowledged in the western world as an alternative system of medicine.

In the western world, the ayurveda music is known as a form of complementary and alternative medicine. Recently, some of its systems and methods have gained fame. Herbs, massages, and yoga exercises have been made use of to complement with long-established and present-day medical therapies. Every so often these methods are employed as entirely a form of CAM therapy.

Sushruta, has been practicing ayurveda music, describes perfect health as a state where all of one’s constitution are in perfect balance, whose appetite is excellent, whose tissue layers function normally, whose excretory systems, and whose self, senses, and mind remain full of bliss. As the philosophy of Ayurveda states, everything in our world has a distinctive personal vibration. Animate and inanimate matter has this exclusive personal vibration distinctive from all matter. Only when there is a free and unobstructed flow of this energy within a person is that person in good health. Disturbances in the flow of energy would cause illness in the person.

With the kind of tainted environment we are living in, plus the poor eating habits, terrible lifestyle preferences, and highly stressful careers, it is enormously difficult to find an individual with a free flow of energy within. The minds and bodies of most people at present are in a state of imbalance because of this situation. Ayurveda seeks to restore the balance of the energy flow within a person and thus bring on a state of health.

As a healing system, Ayurveda has several methods that restore balance in the body’s energy flow and restore health back to its original state. Meditation and yoga are relaxation strategies that can restore balance. The cleansing techniques can be used alone or together with other methods. When herbal preparations are used, the whole plant is used up which is vital to the method because natural vibrations of the plant will restore balance without overfilling the body.

So we can say that ayurveda music is an effective technique to restore harmony to the body’s energy flow, and in turn, induces a balance of health, happiness, and beauty. Since sound is a vibration it has the capacity to affect the vibrations of the body. Ayurveda healing sound has been used as part of the Ayurveda holistic natural healing which happens to be 5000 years old.

The pituitary gland which is located in the brain, is stimulated by the right music, is one of the beliefs of Ayurvedic medicine. Although the size of the pituitary gland is that of a pea, it secretes powerful hormones and regulates homeostasis. The melodic mode used in Indian classical music which is called Raga, is used in Ayurvedic medicine to produce the melodies of healing. Tones of the Raga are both sharper and flatter than the tones in western scales. The Raga is an Indian mode of music. It is defined as “that which colors the mind”. Unlike western sound, this type of music has spiritual connections. Ragas are believed to have positive effects on a lot of ailments including pain, insomnia, schizophrenia, epilepsy, and even aging. It has been proven that Ayurvedic music helps to control hypertension and liver function.

In order to generate vibrations in the cells of the body, Ayurveda makes use of music. The vibrations produced can change the consciousness of the person thus restoring lost health. Music has been known to boost efficiency and concentration during extended periods of work. The right kinds of music can soothe, refresh, and induce a relaxed mood.
