According to the principles of Ayurveda, the greatest remedy is self-knowledge somatic, sensory, psychic, emotional, moral, intellectual ...

This self-knowledge requires an alternation of theoretical understanding and practical apprehension. Thus it can only be acquired by an authentic and enlightened Ayurvedic doctor.

A very specific, identified and differentiated disease or symptom is subject to a large number of pathogenic factors. These pathogenic factors are polymorphic (can change shape), are interchangeable (can compensate or decompensate each other), and are inter-transferable (can be replaced by one or the other).

The speed of healing is proportional to the ability to heal, physiological balances, immune power, purity emunctories (the purity of purification systems), or the age of dysfunctions and pathologies.

Thus, the Ayurvedic physician treats the patient as a whole, not just a disease or a symptom.
