Ayurveda's origin story; churning of the ocean
Manage episode 315115477 series 3252248
The origin story of Ayurveda has all the ingredients of a Superhero blockbuster-with demons (asuras) and devas (angels). A mountain many times the size of mount Everest, and a snake so large that it could be wrapped around it (Vasuki). The avatar of the giant turtle incarnation called Kurma, one of the ten incarnations of Sri Bhagavan Vishnu appearing and super superpowers exhibited by Sri Vishnu and Shiva (drinking of an entire ocean of poison). Pandit Atul Krishna talks about Ayurveda, how Brahma passed this knowledge to a whole brigade of devas and eventually it reached earth. And, he also talks about the advent of deity of Ayurveda Sri Dhanavantari, who appeared at the end of the churning of the ocean. Enjoy!
