Summary of Vasant Lad's The Complete Book of Ayurvedic Home Remedies

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The five elements are space, air, fire, water, and earth. They exist in all matter, both organic and inorganic. The five elements manifest sequentially, beginning with space.

#2 Space is the empty, light, subtle, all-pervading, omnipresent, and all-enclosing substance. It is universal, non-moving, and formless. It is nuclear energy. It appears when the pure unmanifest consciousness begins to vibrate and is associated with sound and the sense of hearing.

#3 Air is the second manifestation of consciousness. It is formless, but it can be perceived by touch. It is responsible for the movements of the muscles, the pulsations of the heart, the expansion and contraction of the lungs, and breathing.

#4 Fire is hot, dry, sharp, penetrating, and luminous. When air begins to move, it produces friction, which generates heat or fire. Fire is radiant energy. It is active and changeable. In our solar system, the sun is the source of fire and light.
