India is increasingly showing an interest in Maharishi AyurVeda, including the country's minister for ayurveda and yoga and the chancellor of a leading medical university, who is eager to collaborate with Maharishi University of Management (MUM).
Professor Robert Schneider, MD, FACC, was invited to give a keynote presentation at an international ayurveda congress in Pune, India earlier this year.
While there he had a long meeting with Shripad Naik, India's minister for traditional systems of health (AYUSH). Mr. Naik pledged his support for MUM's program of Maharishi AyurVeda research and clinical practice.
Dr. Schneider's presentation to the congress, held at D.Y. Patil University, explained how Maharishi AyurVeda is much broader than the herbal medicine practice common in India and around the world. It also considers the ultimate cause of disease and aging, which is the loss of connection to the body's inner intelligence.
The vice chancellor of D.Y. Patil University, Dr. P.N. Razdan, presented Dr. Schneider with a plaque on behalf of the chancellor, and expressed their university's interest in a strong academic association with MUM, including student exchanges in multiple departments.
"I received very positive feedback on my presentation," said Dr. Schneider, dean of MUM's College of Integrative Medicine. "Participants in the congress felt that they gained an expanded and holistic perspective on ayurveda, and were inspired.
There's now a higher level of appreciation of the contributions of Maharishi AyurVeda in India and worldwide than ever before."
