INDIA EXPERIENCE: Realization of a dream

Saturday, July 21, 2001

"The visit today made me realize that if I had any ailment at all, steam baths, herbal treatments, and cows would be the first thing I would treat it with." 

"George is the best bus driver in all the world."

Sarah M Gallop

"Ayurveda is the earliest school of medicine known to man... originated 2500 years ago in India."

"The whole experience of talking to the doctor, oil treatment and facial was useful to me."

Barbara Maxwell

"All of South Asia, and for that matter the world, could learn a valuable lesson from Kerala regarding the strong cultural unity among Malayalees despite the wide array of religious faiths."

"An accreditation board from this Nation's Capital came today and saw a profound difference in a group of students they had never met before but seemed more Indianized than many Indians."

Unnikrishnan

"It was wonderful and relaxing to visit the Ayurveda doctor. The pulse-reading was surprisingly correct, too. "

Kathleen M Jelen

"Ayurveda is wonderful. The doctor told me how I was feeling just by taking my pulse."

Erin Bracken

"At the Naturopathic clinic, we discovered some of the wonders of nature. Strolling through a hidden path, we were surrounded by lush greenery. I can now identify more than one medicinal plant."

Jarrod D Gray

"The natural health facility was interesting because they only use natural topic medicines compared to Ayurvedic facilities that may prescribe internal medicines."

"We actually had an entire afternoon to ourselves. I really needed it to catch up on things."

"We had the opportunity to be present at Loyola College when the national accreditation board came. They were interested in our stay in India. They took time out of their schedule to speak with us."

Kristin Burney

"Relaxing is what I enjoy doing these days."
