             Nadi vigyan 

                   ****

Nadi Vigyan is an ancient science described in Hatha yogic scriptures as well as in Ayurvedic scriptures.

According to the Hatha yogic scriptures the human body has 72,000 nadis and for spiritual development and to maintain good health one needs free flow of prana inside the nadis. Through Nadi Vigyan techniques we channelise the free flow of prana inside the body with the help of some specific asanas or with special equipment. 

According to Ayurveda, there are 3 doshas or three internal state of a body namely Vata (air+ether), Pitta (Fire+ water) and Kapha (Earth+ water). Any imbalance of these elements in the body leads to several disorders. Imbalance of Vata elements can cause up to 80 disorders in the human body, similarly imbalance of Pitta element can cause up to 40 disorders and Kapha element can cause up to 20 disorders in the human body. Thus, it is being stated in Ayurveda that the diet plan of an individual should be made in consideration to the body type in sync with these elements. For example, a person suffering from hyper-acidity is due to the imbalance or excess of Pitta in the body. Therefore, he/she should take alkaline food in his diet which neutralizes the acidity and balances the Pitta element of the body. These elements can also be disturbed with age.

            Pulse Diagnosis 

                 *********   

Nadi Parikshan (or pulse diagnosis) helps in determining the problems or disorders caused due to the imbalance of Vata, Pitta and Kapha.

The origin point of Nadi is called as Kandasthana which is the nabi (navel area) of the human body as navel is the central power of the body. A baby in the mother’s womb also gets nourishment from the umbilical cord which is also connected to navel of the baby. Our body consists of 72,000 Nadis (or channels). The 72,000 nadis spring from three basic nadis – the left, the right and the central – the Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna.

The word “nadi” does not mean nerve. Nadis are pathways or channels of prana in the system. These 72,000 nadis don’t have a physical manifestation. There are 72,000 different ways in which the energy or prana moves. If the pranic energy is moving through left nasal passage i.e. through Ida Nadithen the body will be more suitable for performing subtle exercises like yoga, similarly, if the pranic energy is moving through right nasal passage i.e. through Pingala Nadi then the body will be suitable for performing energetic exercises and if the pranic energy is flowing through middle passage i.e. through Sushumna Nadi then it is suitable for spiritual exercises. All these three nadis are connected to the spinal cord of the body.

         SPINAL  DISORDERS 

              *************

Our spine is axis of our body which connected with universe.

Spinal disorders are caused due to the irregular body alignment and it may cause hinderance to the functioning of other organs of the body as most of them are connected to the spinal cord. Nadi Vigyan offers techniques that instantly cures patients from lower back pain and various other back problems.

The practice of yoga allows free flow of energy inside the nadi and helps in detoxifying them. According to Hatha yoga, we can maintain the blood flow through specific nadis by performing few asanas. Performing various asanas like Makarasana (crocodile pose) which is also called as natural alignment pose, bhujangasana (snake pose), shavasana and bhujang shavasana which is the combination of bhujangasana and shavasana help in curing the various spinal disorders and problems.

PULSE EXAMINATION       TECHNIQUES

            ******

Diagnose mental and physical problems in any person during the time when advanced medical technologies such as blood tests, imaging, etc. were unavailable. So as per Lada Parampara, Nadi or pulses are vibrations generated by the body, speaking about the body. Nadi Vigyan is also associated with Chakras.

However, the Sanskrit word Chakra translates to a 'wheel,' 'disc,' or 'ring.' 

Thereby, chakras are wheels of energy located at seven vital centers along the spine. They represent the major intersections in the network of nadis that pick up vibrations. Chakras connect nadis to the five layers of the body to distribute these vibrations thorough our being. 

There are seven main chakras in yoga, namely – 

1. Muladhara or Root Chakra

2. Svadisthana or Sacral Chakra

3. Manipura or Solar Plexus Chakra

4. Anahata or Heart Chakra

5. Vishuddhi or Throat Chakra

6. Ajna or Eyebrow Chakra

7. Saahsrara or Crown Chakra

Chakras are an important aspect of Tantra and Kundalini yoga,

. 

Common one being radial pulse diagnosis on wrist.  This examination helps in diagnosing any imbalance in Prakiriti doshas – Vatta (Pingala), Pitta (Ida) and Kapha (Sushumna) as well as Panch Mahabhootas – the five elements of universe.

In the hands of a Nadi Chikitsak (Pulse Examiner), the pulse can reveal any disturbance in the equilibrium, and reveal diseases before overtly symptoms are visible. This is done by placing three fingers below the wrist and measuring the radial artery – the Vata pulse is felt under the index finger, the Pitta pulse is taken under the middle finger, and the Kapha pulse is located under the ring finger. The nadi practitioner can take the pulse at other parts of the body as well, thereby gaining a very complete picture of the state of health of any patient. Early morning, with an empty stomach is the best time to take a patient’s pulse.
