AYURVEDA, YOGA AND MEDITATION WORKSHOP AT THE ISHWAR CENTER - Sunday, September 20th 2009
One of the most amazing things about the science of Ayurveda is the Nadi check. Nadi means nerve. So by feeling the nerve and pulse at the wrist, the Ayurvedic doctor can tell you of the diseases and imbalances of the Kapha, Vata and Pitta. These are the Air, Water and Fire elements of the body. This workshop is going to be very interesting for those who want a system check of their body, and also for those who want to learn. Ayurveda, Yoga and Meditation are of the most ancient techniques of Hindu Vedic Sciences.
SPECIAL EVENT AT THE ISHWAR CENTER - Sunday,
March 15th
Dear friends,
This Sunday, on March 15th 2009, from 4 pm to 6 pm, we will be having a special spiritual session at our center. We are conducting a unique initiation in Meditation, where there will be some extraordinary cosmic energies stimulated by:

All these 5 elements are present in the human body in subtle forms.

Panch Dhatu The Vedas describe 5 metals that are highly beneficial to the human body. These are Gold, Silver, Copper, Iron and Lead. These metals also have a direct connection with the planets, specially the major ones like Sun, Moon, Mars, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu. These metals relate to certain organs and functions of the human body. Once in a while, people should physically touch th
