This Month's Featured Panchakarma Centre - IVAC...
IVAC is a model centre in many ways, it is located in the very mild climate of Mysore which does not have the extreme weather variations of the plains in India and has refreshing summer and a mild winter. The centre was founded by Dr. Talavane Krishna using Vaastu shastra for selection of the land which happens to be nestled on the foot of a very sacred hill called Chamundi Hill. Atop this very hill is a beautiful ancient Divine Mother. Visiting IVAC one is greeted with the eternal sound of Aum which resonates through the campus and there is beautiful vegetation and wonderful service. The accomodations are very comfortable and everything one could require during treatment or even for a short visit is there. Love and care has been put into everything at IVAC and one can feel this immediatly. The treatments are done very perfectly with attention to every detail, the ambience of the treatment rooms is particularly beautiful. Read more about IVAC...

A fleeting glimpse of Ayurveda: The Science of Life and Health
Although meat is mandated in Ayurveda for debilitated patients, for warriors (Kshatriyas) and for those who overexert themselves, it is very heavy for digestion, putrefies faster than other foods and produces Ama (internal toxins) quickly. Unless you exercise strenuously, regular meat eating will increase fat rather than flesh.It promotes speed rather than endurance, which is not good for Vata-affected individuals.
