healing from the roots

HEALING FROM THE ROOTS
Meet Siddha Vaidya P.S.Narasimha Swamy

Dr. Narasimha Swamy hails from a family noted widely for its Siddha medical expertise since generations. Thanks to this distinguished lineage, he developed deep interests in medicine from an early age, and after graduating in life sciences, received rigorous training in Siddha Vaidya at Chennai, a premier hub for studies in this field. He has been practitsing Siddha medicine for more than two decades now and is promoting the cause of this ancient, endangered medical knowledge system in various other ways including publications, field research, design & development of herbal gardens, translations, academic guidance and awareness programmes. He is a Life Member of Akhila Karnataka Siddha Practitioners Association.

Dr. Narasimha Swamy’s book “Moolika Vignyana (Siddha Paddhati)” has won wide acceptance and his quarterly magazine “Herbal Heritage” enjoys a wide readership base in India as well as abroad. He also contributes articles to newspapers & magazines and to his own websites http://agasthiaherbal.tripod.com and http://siddhamed.blogspot.com. In order to integrate the basics of the Siddha system into mainstream medicine and enable its free propagation in all Indian states as well as foreign countries, he learnt classical Tamil (original Siddha literature is written on palm leaves in classical Tamil, in poetic form) and has undertaken a major project to translate basic Siddha literature into English. He has travelled extensively in the states of Tamilnadu and Kerala to collect ancient Siddha Vaidya books and thereby preserve this extraordinary knowledge heritage in his library.

Dr. Narasimha Swamy has formed the Agasthya Siddha Charities Trust under which he runs several of the above programmes, and provides free healthcare to the needy patients at his clinic in Mysore.

One of the major points of Dr. Narasimha Swamy’s mission is to preserve and promote precious medicinal herbs. To this end, he has developed a herbal garden at Bogadi in Mysore. He also offers advice for design and development of herbariums and for formulations of drugs for specialized herbal therapies.
Fieldwork is a matter of great passion and priority for Dr. Narasimha Swamy. He undertakes regular field trips to the forests and hills of Tamilnadu for collection of herbs and plants for his work. During such trips, he also undertakes certain pharmaco-/ethno-botanical studies, and he networks freely with local people (tribal folks, veteran healers, scholars of ancient Tamil and community leaders) to develop a knowledge base of herbal medicine.

In order to prepare a new generation of Siddha Vaidyas, Dr. Narasimha Swamy is developing teaching/learning resources in customized packages for short and long-term academic training programmes in schools and colleges.

Dr. Narasimha swamy presented several papers in many NATIONAL and INTERNATIONAL conferences and seminars on Siddha system of Indian Medicine.

Dr. Narasimha Swamy has always displayed a keen interest in scientific validation and technical evaluation – and therefore universalization - of the Siddha Vaidya system. He systematically collects data on plants as well as patients, and his database incorporates case histories of hundreds of patients from across the world. He also documents his breakthrough therapeutic successes in chronic cases (and those given up by modern medical practitioners) including psoriasis, leucoderma, asthma, arthritis and scalp-related problems. Needless to say, he uses modern techniques of pathological and radiological investigation to place his diagnosis on scientific grounds.

Dr. Narasimha Swamy’s future plans include development of a full-scale Nature Cure Centre with facilities for yoga, meditation and inpatient treatment. He also plans to have an exclusive wing for collection of high quality field and patient data, and sophisticated labs for conducting randomized experiments for pharmaceutical standardization.
