Medicine System of Rig Veda
World's Oldest and most advanced natural medicine system🧵

Do you know that our Vedic ancestors had developed plants based natural medicine system with proper classification system for medicinal plants and diseases they could cure?

Let's bust the slander and lies of the modern allopathic sales and marketing Turks masquerading as doctors in our society....
Part 1 ✅Image
1. The Ashavmara - The Nerium oleander (Kaner)

Navjot Singh Sidhu's wife Dr. Navjot Kaur was suffering from Breast cancer.

How many of us know that our Vedic ancestors had described Breast cancer cure in Rig Veda Mandla 1 Sukta 162, 163, 164.

Surprised??

That is how vast and scientific our Vedic knowledge system and Vedic medicine system is which later developed into Ayurveda.

The Biggest challenge with Vedic text is the context and symbology Vedic Sanskrit words represent.
If you do not get the right context and meaning, you will be lost like a rain drop in an ocean.

Below is a screenshot of Rig Veda Mandla1, Sukta 162 translation.

On page 1 word "Ribhus" is mentioned in shloka 1.
Ribhus were representatives of cellular life and they have been described as microcosmic in nature and function in Vedas.

Wherever you come across the word "Ashwa" representing a White Horse in context, it symbolises the calcium ladden malignat cells.

(Calcium and calcium-regulating proteins contribute to many of the processes key to cancer cells, including proliferation, invasion and cell death. Several oncogenes and tumour suppressors have effects on calcium homeostasis.)

Wherever you come across word "Tvashthari", it symbolizes D.N.A. of human cells.

So in short in Sukta 162, 163, 164 you will find shlokas mentioning about Ribhus and slaughter of White Horses by cutting the Twasthr or destroying the chords of Twasthr by "Ashwamarak".

These white horses represent cancer laden malignant cells.
Ashwamark is sanskrit name of "Nerium oleander" which we call "KANER KE PHOOL" in hindi.

So our Vedic ancestors were aware that we can use "Nerium oleander" which we call "KANER KE PHOOL" in hindi, to kill cancer cells (White Horses related to Ribhus (Human body cells) and cancer can be cured.

Though in Vedic medicine system Cancer has not been defined as a separate disease but a group of diseases represented by word "ANUBADA" which we find in Sushrut Sanhita and Charak Sanhita also.

Explaining the context and symbolgy associated with the words of Rig Vedic sanskrit text is beyong the scope of this thread but i will surely come up with a separate thread on Vedic biology to explain it all in coming days.

Note:

After evaluating all safety and toxicity data, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration determined that a defined Nerium oleander extract is safe enough to be administered to humans by mouth, and a defined Nerium oleander extract is now being used to treat cancer patients under an FDA-approved Investigational New Drug application.

2. Ashwmara

The rasa of Kaner has been mentioned as a potent remedy for the cancerous cells in Rig Veda Mandla 1 Sukta 162, 163, 164.

The term ‘Ayurveda’ is formed with two words Ayus and Veda. The word "ayus" means life, oblation giving long life, longevity, duration of life, life principle; and Veda means knowledge. Ayurveda means knowledge of long life.
The word "Bhesajam" means healing, curing and medicine also. The root is ji which means victory and the victory over diseases is Bhesaja. There are a very large number of references in the Vedic literature about Bhesaja
If you read the translation of Rigveda Sukta with correct translation, you will understand how deep and scientific our Vedic ancestors were.Image

Let's bare the cabal behind the US Justice department rot under outgoing US President Joe Biden.Image
1. The family

George Soros has made himself a household name in India for all the wrong reasons.
He wants to change the polity and political landscape of India by destroying India.
But is he alone?
No...
He is ably supported by his sons and daughters.

Soros married thrice. Presently he lives at New York with his third wife Tamiko Bolton.

His two ex-wives birthed him 1 daughter and 4 Sons.

His son from his second wife Alexander Soros has been Goven the crown of the INFAMOUS Soros empire by his father George Soros but that does not mean rest of brothers and sisters are just walkovers.

They are power wheeler dealers in their own ways.

In the forthcoming parts of the thread, you will see these names with Soros Surname popping up everywhere.

As they say what happens in family, stays in family.Image
2. The Invisibles

No one pays any attention to the brother of George Soros, Paul Soros who founded Soros associates which design ports and bulk cargo facilities. Soros associates operate in 91 countries.

Paul was famous as THE INVISIBLE SOROS contrary to his famous younger Sibling George Soros who is always in limelight for his deeds.

Though Paul and his wife Daisy were not as left to the right, as George Soros is but yet at their peak, they were a force to reckon with. Paul passed away in 2013.Image
