Making history in the global realm of Ayurveda, over 70 students from more than 30 countries came together for the first time to complete a groundbreaking 3-year Ayurveda, Siddha Veda education programme. Organized by the Ayushakti Academy of Ayurveda, this monumental achievement was celebrated in grand style during the Ayushakti Education Summit 2024, held recently in Mumbai. The summit brought together participants of Ayushakti’s PATH (Practitioner Training in Ancient Healing Secrets of Siddha-Veda) course. Ayushakti’s PATH course is ancient wisdom meets modern healing, where secrets passed down through millennia are made accessible to transform lives. Over the last three years, Ayushakti has crafted a revolutionary programme that not only trains practitioners in the ancient art of Ayurveda, Siddha-Veda healing but also empowers them to integrate this knowledge into a results-driven practice. The PATH course is a life-changing experience that combines immersive learning, hands-on skills, and spiritual awakening. The PATH course is a comprehensive, 3-year skill and talent-based training program that dives deep into the ancient science of Ayurveda, Siddha-Veda, as preserved by Dr. Smita Naram and late Dr. Pankaj Naram. Participants are taught how to read and interpret pulse diagnosis, identify the root cause of ailments, and implement holistic solutions through natural therapies, herbs, dietary guidance, and marmaa points. From learning ancient Sanskrit shlokas to mastering the art of Panchkarma therapies, PATH students are immersed in the full spectrum of Siddha-Veda teachings. They also explore cutting-edge ways to integrate these practices into wellness practices, guided by experts like Dr. Smita Naram and Dr. Krishna Naram. The summit embraced the universal message of light conquering darkness, a theme that resonated deeply with the core philosophy of Siddha Veda: (From the Darkness of Ignorance), make me go (i.e. Lead me) towards the Light of Knowledge). The summit was a hub of knowledge-sharing and cultural exchange, featuring immersive workshops, expert lectures, and hands-on demonstrations which has captivated participants with its wide-ranging activities, which included: Participants learned the ancient diagnostic art of pulse reading through lectures and live demonstrations. Observing Dr. Smita Naram’s pulse consultation clinic offered an invaluable real-world perspective on personalized healing. Immersive workshops on Panchkarma therapies and Marmaa techniques provided participants with direct experience in these transformative practices, under the guidance of skilled practitioners. Indoor and outdoor camps enabled attendees to apply their newfound knowledge, offering holistic healing to those in need and witnessing the real-world impact of Siddha Veda techniques. True to the essence of Siddha Veda, participants engaged in Sewa (selfless service), organizing food distributions at a charitable trust, reinforcing the principle that compassion is central to healing. The Rudra Yagna and Dhanvantari Pooja on the auspicious occasion of Dhanvantari Day added a spiritual dimension, honouring the divine forces behind Ayurveda and invoking blessings for holistic well-being.
