Ayurveda was in vogue in India since very early times.
The Ayurvedic and Siddha systems have played a very
important and vit has gone. Such a huge phenomenon, and not even footprints -- i
n what direction has it
gone? It has just moved simply into nothingness. This was happening continually.
It took almost twenty years to figure out this new phenomenon: that in existence
there are
black holes. You cannot see them, but they have tremendous gravitation. Even the
biggest
star, if it comes within their radius of magnetism, will be pulled in. And once
it is pulled
into a black hole, it disappears. It is the ultimate death. We can only see the
effect; we
cannot see the black hole, we only see that one star is disappearing.
After the black hole was almost an established theory, scientists started thinki
ng that
there must be something like a white hole -- there has to be. If it is possible
that in a
certain gravitation, magnetic force, a big star simply disappears out of existen
ce.... We
have been aware that every day stars are born. From where are they coming? -- no
body
has asked it before.
In fact, birth we always take for granted; nobody asks from where the babies are
coming.
Death we never accept, because we are so much afraid of it.
There is not a single philosophy in the whole history of man which thinks about
where
the babies come from, but there are philosophies and philosophies thinking about
what is
dead, where people go on disappearing to, what happens after death.
In my whole life I have come across millions of people, and not a single person
has asked
what happens before birth -- and thousands have asked what happens after death.
I have
always been thinking, why is birth taken without any question? Why is death not
taken in
the same way?
We were aware for centuries, almost three centuries, that stars are being born e
very day -big stars, huge stars -- and nobody raised the question, "From where are these s
tars
coming?" But when we came to know about the black holes and we saw the stars
disappearing, then the second question became almost an absolute necessity. If b
lack
holes can take stars into nothingness, then there must be something like white h
oles
where things... stars come out of nothingness.
I am reminded.... Mulla Nasruddin had applied for a post on a ship. He was inter
viewed.
The captain and the high officials of the ship were sitting in a room. Mulla ent
ered. The
captain asked, "If the seas are in a turmoil, winds are strong, waves are huge a
nd
mountainous, what are you going to do to save the ship? It is tossed from here t
o there...."
Mulla Nasruddin said, "It is not much of a problem: I will just drop a huge anch
or to keep

the ship stable against the winds, against the waves. It is not much of a proble
m."
The captain again said, "Suppose another mountainous wave comes and the ship is
going
to be drowned; what are you going to do?"
He said, "Nothing -- another huge anchor."
The captain looked at him and asked a third time, "Suppose it is a great typhoon
and it is
impossible to save the ship. What are you going to do?"
He said, "Nothing, the same -- a huge anchor."
The captain said, "From where are you getting these huge anchors?"
He said, "From the same place. From wheit has gone. Such a huge phenomenon, and
not even footprints -- in what direction has it

Here is a beautiful ideal of Charaka: Not for self, not
for the fulfilment of any earthly desire of gain, but solely
for the good of suffering humanity should you treat your
patients and so excel all. Those who sell the treatment o f
disease as merchandise gather the dust and neglect the
gold.
Charaka also says: A physician who cannot enter into
the innermost soul jof the patient with the bright light of
the lamp of his own knowledge cannot successfully treat
any disease.
India has ever been evolving art after art, science after
science, as her contribution to the common heritage of all
the nations of the world. Her greatest gift to the world is
the gift of the spiritual science of Self-perfection. Next to
it we should place this Science of Life, the Ayurveda, as a
precious gift to be carefully developed and broadcast to all
nations. It is a national duty of every Indian.
