Asia – the philosophical continent

India gave birth to eastern philosophy including Buddhism (around the 4th century BC) with its trans-regional and trans-cultural thought, Hinduism (somewhere around 1500 BC) which is both a religion and way of life and the Sikh (16th century) philosophy of righteousness, equality and believing in God’s grace.

In China, Confucianism (500BC) was the philosophical practice of how a person should act to be in harmony with the law of Heaven.

Asia- traditional healing and medicine

Ayurveda is one of the oldest medical methods to be practiced in the world and originated in India more than 5000 years ago. The Sanskrit word combines the word ‘Ayu’ meaning life and ‘Veda’ meaning knowledge. The body is healed by balancing the mind, body, and soul and health is maintained by keeping a balance between three doshas or energy fields: ‘Vata’ (ether and air), ‘Pitta’ (fire and water) and ‘Kapha’ (water and earth).

Its treatments are based on a number of principles and are customized for each individual by taking a number of factors into consideration including doshas, personality and astrological charts. The treatments may entail the use of one or a combination of the following: indigenous herb therapies, a special diet, massage, amulets, and yogic exercises.

Traditional Asian medicine has been practiced for thousands of years and includes the use of local herbs, massage, exercise, and acupuncture. The principles behind these are to not only fight disease, but to prevent it too.

 The principles behind it are: ‘Qi’ or the life energy that runs throughout the body and how to keep it flowing, and ‘yin and yang’, the opposites that need to be balanced. Yin is the night, dark, cold, feminine and negative as opposed to Yang which is the day, light, warm, positive, and male. The life energies of ‘Qi’ are reliant on the balance.
