Welcome to the Ayuveda Wiki!
Welcome to AyurWiki, the Ayurveda Herbology Wiki. This is a resource which focuses on Herbs/Plants from an Ayurvedic framework, being useful for anyone studying or practicing Ayurvedic Medicine. Ideally for those wishing to gain a deeper understanding of the various aspects, qualities and actions of the herbs. Over time we hope to be able to include valid research or links to modern research on the herbs listed, as well as including indigenous plants with indications of the possible Ayurvedic qualities of these plants.
This Wiki is open to all the members who want to contribute.
Because this Wikis is new, we need your help to build up lots of in depth and high quality content - Let's make this the best source of Ayurveda Herbology on the web!
At the moment, we are the early stage of site development where we are endevouring to get on-line the foundations of the Ayurveda framework necessary to be able to understand the way that herbs are understood by an Ayurveda practitioner. Herbs in Ayurveda are not simply a set of chemical properties but rather a complete individuality which has a personaility, tendancies and qualities which make up its nature. Come to know the plant, or substance and you will learn to understand the qualities of the plant.
To be able to take part in the development of this site you need to create an account and then logon.
