TESTIMONIALS 2017
January 31 2017
I am a repeat visitor to Vaidyagrama. Over the past few years, Vaidyagrama has truly evolved into a large healing village. They are Staffed with dedicated doctors, who are experienced Ayurveda Practitioners
As always, they have been attentive to my problems and have constantly worked to resolve the same. Besides the doctors, they have sincere and warm therapist and support staff.
I love the personal care and attention they provide to each one of us who come here from far and wide for our treatment. I want to thank all the doctors, therapist and staff for their care and attention to all my needs.
Every time I return to this place, I am so happy to see my other friends who come here for their own treatment. I truly feel that we belong to one big Vaidyagrama family.
Love and respect to entire Vaidyagrama

Thank you for making my India experiences something extraordinary. I had a fear of India before this, only because of what witnessed on T.V and western news.
My dear friend Jaisri told me I would do well to come, so I came and ignored all trepidations I held. I am so glad. I have grown so much, the staffs at Vaidyagrama is amazing but now I realize there are more people like this in this part of world. I am grateful for this opportunity. I know I am stronger and my CMT is a challenge for everyone, I am not alone.
I will return and continue on this journey of mine.
Dr Harikrishnan you rule!
Dr Kesari, I love you!
Dr Radhika and Dr. Adhulya, you are so sweet!
I will miss you!
Dr Mubash I will miss you too.

My 6 week stay at Vaidyagrama has come to an end. What an amazing experience. I arrived here feeling very heavy in my heart and body and now I feel so much lighter and cleanser. I t was just the reset I needed and I learned so much about how to really create the conditions for health when I return home. So I appreciate vision of this place- the holistic approach, the community outreach, the sensitivity to the environment. And of course there are the amazing staffs.
I felt very care given by the doctors and therapist. Day after day they show up with skill and open hearts a truly remarkable team. Special thanks to Dr. Kesari, Dr Harikrishnan, Dr Mubash, Dr Radhika, Dr Adhulya and Kalpana. Willingness to connect on a humour level.
Also thank you to the office staff who were always lovely, kind and Preeti who is a treasure. I actually had a lot of fun as well as healing (Laughter is a great medicine) and it was wonderful to share music together.
I also met some fantastic people here and got so much from satsang with Dr.Ramkumar.
Thank you
I will be back

It was not an easy decision to come to vaidyagrama although regular visitors for 6 years.
In December 2016 Natacha my wife and I decided to come to vaidyagrama. It has been an exceptional experience to stay.
Exceptional because of the kindness, spirit, helpfulness and all the people. Doctors, staff, therapists
Exceptional because of the medicine and treatment which makes me feel so much better.
Exceptional because of spirituality, oneness and nature and respect for each other.
It was continued me to spend 10 days of relaxation, reflection, contentment, detachment and peace.
May vaidyagrama continue in its philosophy they will lead to further success. We look forward to coming back.
Thank you

Vaidyagrama is an extraordinary vision by a group of doctors who intended to make a difference to people around the globe.
It has certainly made a difference to my life .I have become more aware and mindful of the health and what I eat. The experience has also awakened me spiritually and wanting me to go back to basics and close to nature.
I would like to thank Dr Harikrishnan and his team especially my therapist Vidhya and the entire staff of Vaidyagrama who have been very caring. I enjoyed the Satsangs and prayer by Dr Ramkumar, Dr Ramadas, Dr Ramanandan and my doctor.
All the best in transforming this vision into reality.
God Bless.

We loved the team here in our block, the therapist and the supporting staff who are always smiling and helpful through all our needs big & small.
The doctors are all cheerful and keep you up beat during all the treatments, day & night.
The admin team were all very helpful, yet light hearted. It’s nice that you do the daily prayers as that adds some spirituality to the place, which aids in the healing process. We will be telling all our friends and family to come here for their well being.
Lots of love to you all,

This was my second time here in less than a year. So good to be back in the capable hands of doctors.
The therapist Reshma, Reshma, Praveena was wonderful and took such a good care of me. So fortunate to have witnessed and participate in the sarpa pooja. My favourite time is 6 am and 6 pm prayers and listening to Dr Ramadas melodious voice.
Hope to come back in a year once again. With great gratitude to Dr Ramanandan, Dr Harikumar, Dr. Siva Jyothi, Mubash and all the rest.

Dear Vaidyagrama,
I have had one of the most beautiful experiences coming here. Though it was a big surprise for me, I have found peace coming here and I feel like a new person.
Everything has been great from the ambiance to the doctors and the therapist knew their job very well and the staffs have been so helpful with all my needs.
The only drawback was the food that could have been a little better. And if you could provide a T.V and internet in the room, that would be superb, could have made my stay even more beautiful.
A special mention to Dr. Ramanandan, for being so patience and understanding throughout this journey and making it as much easier with his sense of humour
And my therapist Devaki, who made the effort of coming for me even on her day off, such a kind lady. Actually the whole staffs have been very kind. And not to forget Preeti for taking so much care of my food and also emotionally supporting me ,though my best friends Archana (my soul sister) and Sumer stood by me emotionally. Overall I am extremely happy (credit goes to Archana) to have come here as it has helped me so much.
Thank you

An oasis for body, mind, spirit. From arrival my every need has been taken care of with care, smiles and grace.
Thank you to all the staff who works patiently in service to all of their patients. Biju and Lakshmi in block 8 made me feel completely at home and relaxed in my room and during treatment and I am very careful for that. Dr Harikrishnan inspired absolute confidence in the treatment with his calm manner and assured knowledge of anything I needed to ask. His team of doctors Dr Kesari, Dr.Adhulya, Dr.Radhika were always available for consultations and reads race. Their daily check INS strengthened my commitments and faith to let go and concentrate on my recovery.
The daily Satsangs with Dr Ramkumar and Dr Ramadas were valuable source of laser sharp Ayurveda wisdom! Finally thanks to my fellow patients for their support and good honour throughout this adventure!!

Effacement
Is a golden gun
It was not easy to hold it against my head and fire!
I needed great faith in my master
To suffocate myself
With his holy bag
Full of truth.
I needed great courage
To go out into the dark
Tracking God into the unknown
And not panic or get lost
In all the starling new scents, sounds, sights or lose my temper
Tripping on those scheming
Night and day around me
Effacement is the emerald dagger
You need to plunge
Deep into yourself upon
This divine path to recovery
Upon this path
To God

This place helps us reach a deep inner silence.
Light playing through the shadows is divine.
Everyone is working with a smile on their face.
People shine differently, probably from care of the body but mainly from their radiant spirit
Thank you for opening my eyes on another luminous and joyful path

Thanks for having me and my daughter as a patient and my son as a guest. This place is like a heaven on earth.
In this village there is food for mind, body and the soul. The whole environment is very mesmerising especially when I compare it with today’s busy world. In addition to our physical needs spiritual needs are also taken care of.
From doctors to the working level staffs all are extremely polite and caring. Any request you put in is taken care of.
I am looking forward to come here again.
I am thinking happiness and good health is back with me. Community dinners are a great idea.

The last 3 weeks were passing very quickly for us, the first time here at this lovely place, we enjoyed it a lot.
Waking up surrounded by the chirping of the birds, followed by morning programs what a nice and inspiring experience.
We came here exhausted and tired, leaving now rejuvenated, relaxed and with new experience.
Thanks to the caring staffs who was always attentive and hard working with a smile on their faces.
Special thanks to Dr. Ramadas taking always good for us. We like your special humour, voice and dedication.

My husband and I have really enjoyed our stay here. We are very impressed by the constant care provided by the doctors and the prompt service given by the therapists.
I was really impressed when Geetu brought my medicines before the group dinner and just after it.
I am also very thankful that the therapists adjusted my treatment because of my inability to tolerate hunger.
On the whole it was a very pleasant stay. My husband likes this place so much that he wants to bring his students one time here.
I am hoping to comeback in a year or two.

Vaidyagrama is a highly distinguished facility for enhancement of wellness and Ayurveda treatment. It is highly desirable model of an outstanding team of care givers, with an outstanding mission. Its natural surroundings are highly congenial.
Because of the exceptional organization that the vaidyagrama is, my life has received several benefits.
This model of natural care giving must be replicated throughout the world.

Well, going through cleanse in India has certainly revealed some layers of ‘stuff’ literally, metaphorically! The journey inward towards understanding + knowing I have been given another jumpstart.
Sincere thanks to Dr. Ramadas, I have delighted in your cheeky sense of humour, therapists for your incredibly hard work, diligence.
Dr. Aruna My goodness what a little intellectual and whole hearted powerhouse you are! Thank you for your care, friendship, especially during my moment’s days of particular struggle. An unexpected delight has been the joy in mingling with fellow wayfarers (Patients)
May you all return to a state of harmony, health and peace?
Enormous thank you to Daniela wolf, the bridge, the unifier, the messenger, your work is tremendously important.
How I wish I lived on the same continent as you!

Not knowing what to expect we founded vaidyagrama to be a true oasis of health, fall of flowers, birds and butterflies, where the doctors are efls and princes equally taking loving care of men and women, big or small, young or old.
We enjoyed every moment of our short stay and would like to thank all the helping hands at this lovely place where we found peace, pureness and clarity of mind again

Truly fall in love with the place.
Stayed 5 weeks and I have to admit I had first 4 days were very difficult to take especially the confinement.
Therefore I especially thankful to the team of doctors to modify my treatment during the first week
Special thanks to Dr. Ramanandan for his understanding, to Dr. Harikumar to work with me over my difficult issues.
Great thanks to the staff for mainly all the medicines, food, keeping place such nice, friendly and very peaceful. I believe that I got from this place much more than my initial expectation.
Again 70% is done, 30% remain for me to work it out, and for this 70% deep thanks to vaidyagrama

Dear vaidyagrama I am so very grateful for my time at vaidyagrama. It is so inspiring to see a community that lives connected to and honouring to earth and Mother Nature.
It is so beautiful how you consider the surrounding community offering food and healthcare to those in need. It is nice to see nature all around and medicines growing outside my door!
It has also been such a blessing to be around the spiritual aspects of vaidyagrama. I love being able to participate in pooja, satsang and chanting.
The food is incredible!!! I especially love the idly and coconut chutney. I am also grateful for insight of my doctors and how they pushed me to continue treatment even as it got challenging. I truly trust their judgement.
Thank you Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Sivajyothi and Dr. Harikumar who thought me to make the God in me happy.
Thank you so much to Devaki who has been so sensitive and patient with me and provided me such amazing therapies. Thank you for coming in on your day off to take care of me!
I am truly sorry if I was ever too much asking for things. Everyone has been so accommodating with my sensitive’s and needs.
One suggestion I have is that the noise level is loud much of the time. This can be especially challenging because paneha karma makes us so sensitive. I felt that the talking in the patient block was very excessive and it made very difficult to relax especially during treatments.
I felt that it is very important to have silence while in treatment and while resting and this was almost never the ease while I was here. I had to ask for quite many times which made me feel guilty.
I feel like I should not have had to ask at all. I feel it should be the therapist’s responsibility to know to not talking in the blocks and to keep their voices low.
Other than this with the noise level, my stay at vaidyagrama has been really amazing.
I feel like one very blessed and lucky girl to have had the opportunity to receive such a great Panchakarma with such amazing people.
This place is incredible
Happy new years and blessings to you all
Love,

The stay this time has been difficult. This is the 3rd time I have been here, many changes had taken place.
With new doctors, new staff a period of uncertainty is inevitable..!
Hope coordination, communication and patient care improve over time to provide the best care for people who come to seek treatment.
As usual, Dr. Harikrishnan, Aparna, Suresh, therapists and the support staff has been great!

Namaskar greetings and gratitude we came to Vaidyagrama for Ayurveda healing and received remarkable rebalancing in body, heart and mind.
The deep and gentle care of everyone allowed for a deep healing. It enhanced our connection to the planet as well as rejuvenating our body and expanding our heart and mind
Seeing everyone working in Vaidyagrama going about peacefully with a warm smile was a wonderful example of how to be.
We are learning after 5 weeks and find this peaceful time enhanced our health but also deepened our bond as a couple.

I Could not think of a better environment to be in for the holiday period, such a calming and peaceful place. The four weeks I have spent at vaidyagrama have left me feeling positive and enthusiastic about the future.
Thanks to the doctors, therapists, cleaners, admin, cooks, gardeners and all the rest for making this a great stay. I loved the morning and evening prayers and the satsang and also the family of cats (mother and 3 kittens). I hope vaidyagrama adheres to its animal policy of feeding them twice in day and that they live in harmony with patients and staff are able to share the environment.

Dear vaidyagrama
Thank you for your wisdom, love compassion and patience. I pray we will see each other again soon. I am grateful my uterus is free from cancer and I thank you for that.
Western medicine is very cold and sterile here at vaidyagrama the medicine is not a prescription it starts with compassion patience and mixed with the treatment, Ayurveda wisdom medicine and the result of Amazing.
My life is enriched because of you I have a wonderful team that I am hopelessly in love with Heart but I had liked to thank you all equally important to the whole.
Please know you have changed my life in so many levels I will be forever grateful blessings of perfect health and wealth.

Thank you. I was very happy to come back for a third visit not because I have a medical condition that needs repeated treatment (by the grace of god) I find the whole experience so beneficial and rejuvenating that I like to come back.
I continue to be amazed by the quality and attitude of the staff, the whole vaidyagrama environment and the Satsangs and supportive programs. Great vision, well executed

Thank you again all the doctors Therapist and everyone behind the scenes of therapy and Vaidyagrama although receiving the various forms of therapy may not be an enjoyable experience Vaidyagrama teaches us if we choose to let go of that through this experience and understanding of longer period of rejuvenation is worth waiting for us outside lies a world of instant gratification
If anything can be learned here at vaidyagrama instant gratification is not best for the health and soul and overall well being of body mind and spirit

The atmosphere and beautiful surroundings were as healing as the medicine and treatments.
I lost weight, feel lighter, more flexible, less agitated, calmer, clearer and much happier. I made many friends and enjoyed every day. I even gave satsang and taught 2 clients and am staff member meditation. I snuck out a few times to watch the sunset through the palm trees as well.
I will surely recommend vaidyagrama to friends and students. The doctors and staff are extraordinary and kind.
Thank you for everything

Is there Ayurveda here at vaidyagrama?
Yes, authentic Ayurveda is living here!
The doctors, the team of therapists, the people who are in the administration and people who work in the kitchen, those who work in the garden area integrated with the blocks of buildings (or may I call humble aboard of life) are all full of life. The ambience in each block is a manifestation of nature or “prakruti”
Doctors and the people are all spiritual in terms of their service to each of the patients here. Doctors not only give treatment but give the most vital part of treatment – the knowledge and wisdom of Ayurveda life style.
The truth is a day in vaidyagrama is a day of living life in harmony believes in it!! Because it is the truth!!
Your “doshas” are not only balanced but your mind is also calm, tranquil and balance.
Carry on this balance in body and mind and it is easier to live a life as you are now a ‘balanced’!
“Vaidyagrama – “g” stands for “green”, while ‘rama’ stands for all the doctors Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikrishnan, and Dr. Ramkumar who all are “Ramas” Hari is an avatar of Rama!
Thanks very much for such an effortlessly easy treatment but effective for all days to come!
Our special thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Krishnadas, Dr. Aruna and Dr. Arsha, who are born-healers.

Hello my journey to Vaidyagrama was though a tour group called beane India we spent two weeks travelling many cities and sites of India, seeing temples forts and of course tasting the food. At the end we some of us opted for this healing site. She is unusual rustic and somewhat primitive. Beautiful grounds as well as loving and caring staff. Many of the principles of Ayurveda are timeless. I take what works for me prayer chanting simple but healthy meals yoga mudra as well as satsang are all beneficial loved the treatments

I felt thoroughly supported throughout my Panchakarma journey and really feel it will provide a solid foundation for me rest of my life regarding my physical and mental health.
Because of the high standards and good reputation here the other guests I found were wonderful, fun, supportive and caring of each other because of the harmonious atmosphere.
Thanks especially to Dr. Ramadas, jayasree, Drs. Aruna and Krishnadas.
Vaidyagrama is an oasis of healing and wish you many blessings for the vital work you all do!

After much research and enquiry I choose vaidyagrama for Ayurveda treatment. During my 3 weeks stay here what I experienced is beyond my expectations.
It is intact a spiritual retreat where body, mind, intellect and soul are nurtured with great care. The day starts and ends with prayer sessions which makes the mind peaceful and give it strength to surrender to higher power. The doctor explains the treatment so well that I felt a confident that Ayurveda is very scientific and Authentic and it would work for me.
The therapists are very professional and friendly.
Satsangs are the highlights of the day where we learn about healthy living, basics of Ayurveda and spiritual insights of this sequence. The depth of knowledge the doctors have is amazing and admirable.
I am especially impressed by the community service projects undertaken by Geetha, her dedication to vaidyagrama and her selfless service are very inspiring.
I am very grateful for this opportunity to experience Ayurveda at vaidyagrama

I came here with a friend, with her friends’ recommendation. I did not much about vaidyagrama then. Now I know this is the place for treatments, any kind of healing and spiritual well being.
Regarding my treatment I got better.
The care given to me by doctors and the staff is excellent. I am very much impressed and touched by their care.
Satsangs with doctors was another level of educational experience for me. They have given so much information about Ayurveda and spiritual life along with heartfelt encouragement. I felt like that I have been blessed to be here.
I wish all the best to vaidyagrama and Punarnava trust projects with best regards

Namaskaram and Pranamams to the great Vaidyagrama of felicity
Although I am quite familiar with Ayurveda and its proven benefits on me time and again decided to visit this great facility this time.
I am very happy I did the Ambience and tranquillity officer healing atmosphere to the most needed treatment.
A very thankful to Dr Ramanandan, Dr Harikumar, Dr Siva jyothi who are so patient in listening to me although many times I keep asking the same question over and over again. Dr. Ramanandan kept assuring me that I am on the right path when you are uncertain of the path.
The therapist Reshma and Devaki were very nice and helpful, tried to relieve me of my pain and aches by constant comfort of massages. Thank you both very much.
Great thanks to the kitchen staff, who provided the nourishment with their meal preparation, which helps in comforting and nourishing.
Thanks to housekeeping Especially Deepa who helps to keep the place always clean over all the experience was staying with an extended family.
Important just a quick feedback on my thoughts for improvement.
Hope the pharmacy for kashayam distribution and Therapist are kept separate. As many times the mixed duties seem to take a toll on the Therapist.
Also if a cart can be used to bring the hot cases instead of carrying them one by one will save a lot of time.
Sincere thanks

After a world trip 1 time out in 2010/11 which took me to Ayurveda in India as a first stop, the topic + the art of living has never left me since then. Life has been a rocky road for some years now and major personal decisions are to unfold just now. So it is just been logic for me to seek this place after one intense business week in India as well as far moil business and private wise for last 6 months. Vaidyagrama with its heartful and dedicated doctors, therapists has proven once more that Ayurveda has got something very special to it to really help you on your personal way for body, mind and spirit.
For me it gave me the rest desperately needed, the hints on how to take care and really pay attention on body’s needs as well as on the minds focus and o the possibilities for the new direction my life will be going to.
I leave with an inner smile reassured about the path started in 2010.
Thank you from my heart.

My experiences at vaidyagrama have changed the way I believe in living my life. The doctors, treatments and natural environment have a way of instilling peace into mind body, but I have a real tense that the whole-itic healing that takes place here operates on an even deeper level that of the soul.
I have been surprised at the extent to which I have benefited them from my short time here and very much moved by the soul to soul connections with other patients and staff that seem to form so naturally at vaidyagrama.
Another gift of this place is that it has strengthened my passion for healing. Awakened my inner healer. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have learnt (and continue to ...)
Learn more about the fascinating science that is Ayurveda directly from those who embody this wisdom. I will visit this place many times again in body and heart.

First of all, I have to thank Dr Suresh (Sidha) Dr Shivadas (Ayurveda), Dr Omprakash (Ayurveda) for their guidance to Vaidyagrama in a chain reaction. I would like to thank all the staffs for their efforts, dedication and sincerity. I like the ambience of prayer hall here.
But I didn’t like the food, even though it is good for health. Some improvements have to be done to the food substances. After coming here only I had some knowledge about Ayurveda. I will share about my experiences in Vaidyagrama to my patients and my professional colleagues. Now my husband and I are feeling better physically and mentally.
See you all!

Words can’t express how grateful we are to all doctors, therapist, cleaners and other staff who took so good care of us and helped us to overcome our health problems.
We always believed in Ayurveda and it only becomes stronger after coming to Vaidyagrama. We also believe that we are ready for the next step. An Ayurveda lifestyle with the food of our tasteful choices is the challenge we go for.

The doctors and therapists over here are kind hearted, dedicated, friendly. Special thanks to Dr Ramanandan and Dr Mubash for their consultation and treatment guidance

Having been in contact with Vaidyagrama for a few years this was to be a visit perhaps to meet old friends you have never met.
And that is exactly what it felt like coming home. I thank the wonderful doctors, staff and friends for a very deep and nourishing experience.
And I look forward to future longer stay.
There is certainly a healing magic in this place. It arises from the work of a community dedicated to creating a harmonious oasis for all who come they seem to have the wisdom and patience that comes only from those to who have experienced healing themselves.
May blessings to vaidyagrama and May it continue to be a safe haven for those seeking some despite from the maddening world around.

Travelling to India is one of my real versions. Since 15 years I dreamed of a Panchakarma treatment in India. Now I here realized this dream here in vaidyagrama, this authentic, Indian, professional and strict Ayurveda healing village.
Thank you for the excellent medical staff. Special thank to medical fellow Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Sivajyothi, Dr. Rekha, Dr. Harikumar and to praveena my main therapist.
It is an amazing place and experience to be here per 4 weeks.
Beautiful trees and water lilies, Birds singing
Sensitivity to the environment and caring for the people in the surrounding villages.
Inspiring Satsangs by the founder Dr. Ramkumar and wonderful practical skills by Dr. Ramadas
Interesting and understanding other patients especially the swami and the Indians were good.

My journey to Vaidyagrama has been a huge gift of grace that has flurried through many channels. As divorced women trying to follow an Ayurveda diet for many years I have felt chained to the kitchen. Here having all my meals served to me ,having my laundry and housekeeping and having such amazing body treatment has allowed me to relax body mind and spirit at a deep level that has been life changing. In subtle ways I used to think that I had to do things to make ever thing turn out right. My time here has shown me a different dynamic. As I move from the state of doing to being, perfection unfolds delightful before my eyes. I am aware of the power of Dr.Ramkumar intention for us to move into the space of being while we are here and I am deeply grateful.
I have recognized the constant tendency to compare myself with others against a subtle background and judgement and competition. This has given way to an appreciation of me as I am and others as they are and to enjoy our connection. Many thanks and much love for all those who make this a truly healing village.

For me being here has been a great true gift in many ways.
Doctors have been great; the idea of the healing village is beautiful, with all this nature silence & care around us. The food & room has been very good and the outcome of the treatment looks in a good direction too.
I love Ayurveda and its holistic approach to health and I think Vaidyagrama is able to transmit that ancient wisdom.
Two suggestions for improvement:
Empower the therapists more, making them feel more part of Vaidyagrama through circles and non formal attention and recognition. Also English lessons.
Implement some kind of prize system and approach that allows more Indian people to come (this is expensive for average Indian people) & also for people like volunteers or social servants. It was so lovely to come & I hope I can return.
Love you! Thank you for your amazing service.

This is a poem that I wrote during the course of my stay here. It is about the personal transformation I experienced.
The land of bland
I have journeyed from the hand of spice
To the land of bland
It was a wilful choice.
Initiated by my own hand.
The land of spice is a stimulating place
Full of beauty and sensual pleasure
In coming here I have been confronted by
Restlessness, boredom and too much leisure
There I resided in a tropical paradise
Of backwater greenery and ocean scenery
Where I find myself permanently affirmed
To sell a block six.
There no matter what I wished
It was granted by the amazing Ranji
Here it seems no matter what I want
I just always get Kanji
In the land of spice
Each day was a delight of multiple choices
Here I have plagued by
Discontented inner voices
But at some point, I’m not sure when or how
I passed through the looking glass of duality
And slipped down the rabbit hole
Coming out in a different reality
It’s an alternate universe
And a land of paradox
Where what once was truth
Has now become the reverse
The constant craving for stimulation
Has given way to contemplation
The overall sensory deprivation
Has fastened a sense of liberation
My mental and physical restlessness
Has been replaced by growing mindfulness
Constant activity is no longer my holy cow
Giving way to just beings
And my outwards journey of exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive at where we started
And knows that place for first time
Which brings me to my last rhyme?
Whereas the land of spice is really quite nice
The land of Bland as May bien!!

Vaidyagrama is a home away from home which seems to be the consensus among patients. This is all due to the dedication, care, love and concern of all the doctors and the staff here special thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Aruna, Dr. Mubash and Dr.Sivajyothi for humouring me during my 5 days of eye treatment. I would have never survived it otherwise.
My sincere thanks and appreciation as always

It has been an incredible first experience and well worth the three weeks of treatment the difficult part now is to maintain when I go home. I met some wonderful people and made good friends who came from many parts of the world.
All the staffs are very dedicated, hard working and always smiling. I also got some advice from Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Krishnadas, Dr. Ramkumar and Dr.Arsha.
Ms. Aparna was extremely helpful in providing all the information
Thank you all

Thank you to our doctors ,Dr.Kesari and Dr .Harikrishnan our therapists and the ladies who took care of our room and the kitchen team. This place is very well thought and provides real Ayurveda and for sure can grow with more potential with organizations and good communication.

To the staff of Vaidyagrama
After a fine night of dining,
A priest, a rabbi, and an Ayurveda doctor walk into a bar for a drink.
The priest sidles up to the bar and asks,
“May I have a glass of holy water on the rocks”?
The bartender replies “of course”
The rabbi states,” I am feeling nostalgic, I had like a cup of red wine from Jerusalem, 1999”
“Excellent choice” Exclaims the bartender
The doctor looks the bartender straight in the eye and declares, “No holy water or red wine for me, bring me a bottle of your finest medicine water steaming hot and...
I had like a basti to go!

I came here with my husband. The plan was that he would do the treatment while I just hung around and relaxed. In my mind, I felt we had already spent a lot of money our first couple months travelling and felt like the world benefit more from the treatments. That all changed the first hour after arriving here. How could I not take advantage of this opportunity! I knew right away that this would be a great investment into my own health and well being.
Where do I start? The doctors are all caring, dedicated and have a great sense of humour. (Dr Ramanandan always gave us something to laugh about.) The Ayurveda doctors are kind and good at what they do!! Great cooks, the cleaning staffs, maintenance and administrative staff, the gardeners that had a sweet smile and even that sweet gentleman that goes around every evening turning off the lights, all so pleasant and helpful. Also the environmental consciousness, creating comfortable, peaceful spaces and the way they integrate and care for the surrounding communities goes above and beyond when we make back to India, Vaidyagrama will be our must do list.
Many thanks

What a big experience sometimes it was marvellous sometimes it was so difficult.
At the beginning I didn’t know what the treatments were used for and why the food was ugly.
Because of my friend Annick and a lot of satsang I understood the importance of treatments, food and peace.
And not only my body but my mind become well.
Thank you very much to the doctors for their competence and kindness for all the staff who always smile and a special thanks to Shiny for being so attentive and gentle.
Many thanks to Dr. Ramadas

Thank you Geetha for introducing me to Vaidyagrama. I had a great time, met some interesting patients and had the loving care of the staff. Thank you doctors – introspective and caring Dr.Harikrishnan, very funny and sensitive Dr.Kesari and the beautiful and capable Dr.Athulya and Dr.Radhika. I appreciated the effort of my therapists - Lakshmi, Kalpana and Nimmy, very sincere and hard working. I go lighter in weight and heart. I needed the solitude, the company of fellow patients & the understanding of the staff.
I am grateful to have got back my reading habits which I had lost for the past 20 years.
I hope to see you all soon

Every day at Vaidyagrama is the invitation and opportunity to be present with it all. Outside the walls, several crows call out to each other, alternating as they fly. Their voices trailing off into the distance. The moo of the milking cows. Small birds with high pitched chirps fill the rows of trees that share the space between my back and the one adjacent. The cooing of the morning dove, a utensil on a pot of creating a ringing sound as though emitted from a singing bowl. The engine of a motorcycle tracing the line of dirt path somewhere outside. An entire chorus of singing birds pass overhead whistling, calling, anticipated of the prayer of a new day. A mop is propped up in a thin tree, its red handle bright against the bark. A child runs by, the one who doesn’t speak, but he squeals with delight in a game of his own, enjoying and being present to this morning of which I often taken for granted back home. His mother follows, then his father, their morning tea in hand, keeping a watchful loving eye of their gift. Further in the background the sweet sound of Malayalam, clanging metal pots-the staff and therapist preparing for a new day of treatments of healing-and the anticipation of self love. How many days of my life I have separated myself from such rich moments-either with distraction of activities and self importance or a mind fragmented in a hustle and bustle of thoughts worry judgment analysis-whatever you wish to call it. That field of separation that keeps me –us –wholly and utterly disengaged with oblique from the joy of life. The child is now beating drum in the mandapam, the beats quickening, growing louder, wider, his voice rising to meet the reverberation his expression one of innocence’s Freedom. This experience –all 5 senses - open to receive to interact with life, people, nature-myself on a deeper ,more authentic level is why I returned to Vaidyagrama - the health issues having been an outward symptoms of a life that had tipped out of balance. As I prepare in this last few hours for my departure it is with great gratitude and appreciation to everyone at Vaidyagrama who demonstrate at each and every moment - how to live authentically how to care for other, how to make work a worship. Thank you Dr.Ramkumar for your vision and inspiration of a better world: a loving integrated healing world. Thank you Dr Harikrishnan for your wise and compassionate care. Thank you Dr. Kesari for your warmth and congenial nature and for our discussion ranging from literature to Vedic chanting- including the mantras you so generously shared.
Thank you Dr.Ramadas for your light hearted and sincere spirit and prayers. Two doctors Athulya and Radhika - caring, intelligent and beautiful inside and out. I appreciate the nurturing heart and hands of lakshmi and her assistants mridula and abhila And all the staff-housekeeping, those in the kitchen who nourish our bellies, the ladies and men who tend to the plants and herbs, the internet, laundry, the front desk - all those behind the scenes rolls that are as equally important and necessary and appreciated for such a model of sustainability and healing.
Thank you Geetha for your enthusiasm and selfless service and much gratitude to Aparna for being a Conduit and channel of communication organization and support leading up to and throughout the process. It gives me satisfaction to witness just how much Vaidyagrama has grown since I first visited Vaidyagrama 5 years ago. And how it continuous to expand and touch so many times those who travel from a far those who live in local village.

A very calm and peaceful place I wish, I could come more often and spend time introspect or just spend my time here. Each time I have been here, I have learned something new about myself and one of the main things I realize is the pull I feel towards my roots getting stronger as I grow older. Now am able to realize that being in the south India makes me feel more fulfilled! Much love to all.

A poem, for dear Dr. Ramadas
The storm
You think that winters ending
The ice is melting fast
The frosty feeling sober
This morning chill won’t last
But air keeps getting colder
You blink away the bite
When a blizzard knocks you over
You’re blinded by the white
The body must surrender
To the glowing mass
Of swirling snowflakes blurring
The present with the past
In that minute moment
When numbness overtakes
The urge of ever-knowing
The ice begins to break
Somersaulting winds
Encapsulate the strife
The storm was greatness heaving
Your being into life.
Thanks to all at
Vaidyagrama for
A Wonderful stay

Vaidyagrama is a serene and wonderful place to recuperate relax and be in touch with your inner self. The doctors, the therapists and all support staff at Vaidyagrama make one feel at home and motivate, guide and inspire in many ways. My story at Vaidyagrama was outstanding and I enjoyed every bit. In our busy schedule we often don’t have time or inclination to get in touch with inner self.
I thank Dr. Harikrishnan, Dr. Kesari, and Dr. Radhika, Dr. Athulya and all the therapists and support staff for making my stay very memorable

I most appreciated the Vision and grounding foundation of Vaidyagrama to reconnect to the natural way of living in harmony with Mother Nature.
The most inspiring and nourishing part for me was Satsang with Dr Ramkumar. I appreciated his patience and full presence to answer all of our questions, and to offer spiritual and medical guidance and encouragements. I always felt uplifted in his presence. Even though I don’t feel significant changes (or even a slight decrease in my vitality), I am inspired to go back home and continue to live my life in harmony with myself and therefore Nature. I know that everyone’s intentions here were for healing, and I with Vaidyagrama family continue to stay in integrity with your Vision for this community, for the surrounding villages and for the world.
I am also inspired to continue my work at home by bringing natural healing to people and loving energy to the land.
Many blessings from my heart.

Vaidyagrama has been a very good experience. It has healed me in many ways, and has provided me new ways to look at my actions, decisions and experiences going forward.
The doctors are very knowledgeable as can be seen during careful and caring treatment.
The environment is very conducive for healing, and it is pleasant to spend time here, to allow the treatment to work in a natural way.
The fellow residents provided time to each other, and we get to know them; they were genuinely affectionate and good people. It would be wonderful to re-visit, and to recommend such a place to my friends and family.

I had made arrangements for Panchakarma somewhere else in Kerala, but something did not feel right. It was in the middle of a busy town. I decided not to go and got Vaidyagrama number from another place which was full. I was a little homesick, so I thought of dropping it and just head home. But when I got a response from Vaidyagrama it all fell into place. It felt right and I was heading for a treatment which I didn’t know much about. A driver picked me up from the airport and we drove further away from town ending up in a beautiful quite place in Nature. I was greeted by Kanaku, who was friendly and helpful and who has helped me many times after. Big thanks to you Kanaku, for your service and friendliness.
Then treatment started immediately. Wonderful Dr. Ramadas said “we will help you ground and settle.” Being in India already for 5 weeks with extremely poor sleep, after treatment I was put into a state of happiness, contentment and sleepiness. So very fast I could get rested and settle in this wonderful healing village. Then real treatment began with bad tasting medicines, pleasant massages and not so pleasant treatments, which were also necessary for doing the cleansing.
When I came I had a chronic condition lasting for 20 years. Now 1 month later, my condition has completely changed. Only small signs that there is still treatment needed which I will follow-up at home.
I have felt that I have been so well taken care of here. Warm, helpful, diligent women to clean my room, kitchen staff making wonderful food.
Thank you to wonderful therapists giving treatments. They have all been nice, but special thanks to Jayasree and Shyni who have been my main therapists. I would like to bring you home with me! You have been kind, skilful, smiling and wise. Thank you and also big thanks to all the therapists helping me, you are all wonderful!
I want to thank all the doctors. I know all have participated in discussing and helping find good treatment for my disease. So I want to thank you all, also Dr. Ramkumar for wonderful Satsangs. And to the team of doctors who has worked closely with me.
First I got a little confused with many doctors helping me. But seeing and feeling your care and skilfulness I feel very thankful and privileged to have many wonderful doctors around. I’ve never felt in such good doctor-hands.
Thanks to Dr. Ramadas, for your warmth, wisdom, skill, playfulness and integrity. I have felt so safe under your wings. I have enjoyed our consultations, the pujas and Satsangs. I admire how you live and practise Ayurveda.
Thank you Dr. Aruna for your warm heart, humour, sensitivity and wisdom.
Thank you Dr. Arsha for your diligence, your overview of the situation and your ability to see all the details.
Thank you Dr. Krishnadas for your sensitivity and energy.
Thank you Preeti for being so engaged in making the food so tasty. You inspire me to continue Ayurveda cooking.
Thanks to Geetha for your enthusiasm for the Punarnava Trust project.
All the best to all of you. I’m going to miss you, but I look very much forward to going home and I’m planning to come back to this beautiful healing village, which is true Ayurveda.

Thanks a ton for the concern and love from the entire team of doctors, therapists, everyone at vaidyagrama inclusive.
I am humbled by the attention given to me by the therapist and doctors.
I have never been convinced before about Ayurveda treatments. But coming to vaidyagrama has given me immense hope that I can lead a wholesome life again.
Thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Ramkumar, my therapist Shyni, Dr. Aruna for instilling such strong confidence in Ayurveda, which I am sure to follow for years to come.
Special thanks to all the pearls of wisdom of Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Ramkumar during the Satsangs. After this short stay here I am definitely one step closer to being at peace in both mind and body. The amount of dedication brought in by the doctors and especially the therapist has amazed me.
Thank you everyone at vaidyagrama, for instilling hope and better thoughts towards my own existence.
Amazing spirit and please keep up great efforts!

Vaidyagrama = Cultural people
I really felt cared for. If one fights for years an unseen heavy disease 24 hours a day, one truly appreciates just the fact someone comes and wants to fight on your side. What to speak of allies who are also qualified to fight.
My thanks go to all the members of vaidyagrama community, and special thanks to Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Sivajyothi, Dr. Mubash, Sachin, Reshma, Vinod and Sajith who took personal care of me, and kindly and patiently tolerated my misbehaviour.

Special thanks to our dearest friend Dr. Mubash for taking such good care of my sis and me. Thanks for your support and invaluable pieces of advice during my stay. Hopefully our paths will cross sometime in the future. You will be always welcome in Canada.
I am going to miss the treatments and lovely staff that took good care of me here. Everyone was so accommodating of my needs and I will never forget the extra steps you guys took to make me feel comfortable. I enjoyed every minute of my stay and would like to extend best regards to each and everyone at Vaidyagrama.
You guys are awesome... keep it up!

I am beyond grateful for this amazing and very much rewarding experience that I have gained during my 3 week stay at vaidyagrama. 3 weeks ago I came here as a very anxious and impatient human being whom I didn’t like myself. From day one I have been surrounded by lovely, kind and very accommodating staff. This helped me transform into a much more patient and accepting person more over. I have found my balance here (even though my Pitta is still a bit higher that it should be)
Special thanks to our absolute and favorite Dr. Mubash. My sis and I will truly miss you a lot, but we hope to see you shortly when you come visit us in cold Canada.
The ladies that did my treatment are very nice and lovely! I really enjoyed their company and treatments.
Food could have been better while on Ghee (ha ha, more beetroot soup next time, please) Great experience overall and I will recommend vaidyagrama to everyone I know.
Cheers!

I am very privileged to have been treated in such a wonderful environment with lush gardens, delicious food, beautiful people and wonderful therapy (the ghee treatment was trying but I got through it). All the doctors, therapists, chef, cleaners were always smiling and happy to help with anything. I am happy and positive about my stay and would not hesitate to recommend vaidyagrama to friends and family back home.
A truly healing village!
Thank you

From the minute I arrived in beautiful Vaidyagrama, I felt super welcomed and enjoyed every moment of my 3 weeks a lot. (Except the last cup of ghee). Thank you all for taking such good care of me and for making my stay unforgettable.
I loved the amazing food, the great treatments with so many lovely people, all the Satsangs and those impressive prayers. Thank you also for the delicious community dinner, and of course the daily doctor’s consultations in which I always felt in professional hands.
I will especially miss the beautiful surrounding of the Nature. I think I have never heard any noise of cars for such a long time in my life. I am very grateful that I could stay with you and wish you all the best for the future.

What an experience! It was totally accidental that I turned up at vaidyagrama and my trip was just out of curiosity. Had severe stiff neck and shoulder issue and was looking for a solution. What I got was mental solution. The whole environment is peaceful and serene. My Dr. Ramanandan was great and so was Dr.Rekha. The entire staff is very friendly and always helpful.
The food was perfect, didn’t miss my tea and coffee. The morning and evening pooja is only of the hidden secret here, and was totally rejuvenating.
Will be back!

How to put it in words…..
What an outstanding place, stay and journey it has been.
I felt engulfed in a cocoon of love and care from the moment I arrived… from the staff always smiling and ready to help us anytime, to the dedicated doctors ever present, kind and compassionate providing healing, not for the disease but the entire person’s body, mind and soul. It is due to these daily interactions and Satsangs that I became mad about Ayurveda life and I got inspired to continue on the path.
Thank you to everyone here at Vaidyagrama is deeply grateful for all the love and care you provided to me.

Vaidyagrama is a very good place for healing. I along with my wife Mrs. Shakunthala Prasad came here for the 4th time. My Dr.Harikrishnan has done miracles here. Dr Kesari and other staff are very caring and affectionate. Food is very good. The holistic environment is excellent .My treatment is still on and I have decided to come to Vaidyagrama again in the month of October 2017. Satsangs by Dr Ramkumar were very inspiring.
Thanks to Vaidyagrama for personal care and attention. Once again a warm thanks to Dr Harikrishnan and every one.

I and my wife came for treatment here on 4th April. We were a little worried about how we are going to finish the 10 days treatment with the new environment and food. Initially we were not able to manage, but after the 2nd and 3rd day passed, we were manageable to accept both.
Today is the 10th day and I am very happy and proud to say that we would like to stay for some more time, if not for my business commitments and our family. Our mind is very fresh rejuvenated, started giving more importance to our health. At this point; we would like to thank Dr.Harikrishnan and his team of doctors for taking care of us individually, thanks to all the therapists who are doing wonderful job. The housekeeping is good.
In the initial days we had problems with food but later we got adjusted and got used to it. Thanks to Preeti for accepting my suggestions. On the whole Vaidyagrama is not only a hospital, but also a spiritual space. Learned lot of things but very difficult to express. We are leaving tomorrow, but we will come next at the earliest.
See you soon.

The two words that come to mind when I think about my stay at vaidyagrama are Quality and Wholesome. Everyone from the doctors, junior doctors, therapists and staff provide the necessary treatments to make your mind, body and soul wholesome again. Many places attempt to achieve this goal, but only few meet it with quality care as a staple. The doctors and staff (everyone included) are extremely attentive and caring. I truly believe that I have learned what the beauty of not just a doctor, but a healing community looks and feels like.
Dr. Ramadas’ approach to healing the body is one that keeps the breadth and depth of life and the humor capacity in mind.
Dr. Aruna’s capabilities as a doctor make me want to come back again.
Dr. Arsha’s caring nature which makes her comes to my room ten times a day when I am not feeling well is a true sign of a healer.
The therapists respond smilingly to every back and call, and the house keeping staff kill as many spiders as you ask them too.
Thank you all for the quality care we received. I am sure I will see wonderful results in the long term.
Sincerely,

I came here with a lot of questions in my mind and a very great hope. I am so happy that I came. After talking to Dr. Ramadas I realized that this is the place where I will be cured.
Thank you very much Dr.Ramadas and his team of doctors and staff members. All are wonderful and caring people. Satsang is a good idea and is very informative.
I am looking forward to visit vaidyagrama again with my husband.
Thank you all and very grateful

Vaidyagrama is not just healing the health issues. It also heals the mind and soul in a peaceful atmosphere. It is a pleasant stay for me. I had lost my hope before I came here. I gained my life back in Vaidyagrama. The doctors, therapists and all other staff are very polite; and it is a real blessing to open our problems. Vaidyagrama is not only rejuvenating the body but also the soul. The stay here has given me a complete satisfaction in between the machinery routine life.
Thanks to all the staff who are working here to heal our problems.

By the grace of God and Guru.
I am very glad and blessed to be here in vaidyagrama. It is such a wonderful place where can get physical, mental, intellectual as well as spiritual support. We can learn here how to live and lead the Divine life, which is very essential in our human life. During my stay (from 03/03 to 06/04)
I learned a lot about Ayurveda, how to take care of my body, daily prayers, chanting, worship, cooking class, and had the company of good peoples. The helpful doctors, therapists, all the staff the wonderful advisors, different types of treatments, very clean room, greenery, good air - all inspired and lifted me to develop my confidence, will power, good health, especially in satsang with Dr. Ramkumar - it is a very valuable time in my life.
I am very thankful, and grateful to this family, who offered Ayurveda care here at the homely vaidyagrama.
I pray and invoke the Almighty Lord, all the saints and sages for them to shower their grace be upon the vaidyagrama all staff well-wishers, who are physically, mentally and financially supporting for its future.
May God bless all with good health long life, peaceful, prosperity, happiness and all auspiciousness and my prayers.
With earnest regards.

My first visit to vaidyagrama and it seems to be the beginning of a long, enriching association! The very first view of vaidyagrama took my breath away - was it possible that such a place actually exists!
As the days unfolded, it seemed that petals of the violet lotus were as beautifully crafted and bloomed as did the amazing team of doctors, therapists, support staff and everyone else who is part of the vaidyagrama family from the dry wit and discernment of Dr. Ramanandan, who patiently allowed me time and space to ingest 150 ml of ghee, to the sweet melodious voice of Dr.Harikumar whose wisdom and Bhakthi was inspiring; Dr.Mubash’s attention to detail, picking up on subtle nuances of energy and mood changes; to my therapists the amazing Devaki in whose hands I felt safe and loved, the effervescent ever giggling Maheshwari whose smile was the best ray of sunshine to wake you up with kashayam; Geetu and Reshma are efficient and polite.
Preeti - a complete surprise to have a Haryanvi Jat girl so transformed by the vaidyagrama ethos, whipping up delicious south Indian fare with consummate ease.. Bright and chirpy Aparna, the mover and shaker Geetha, and all the other medical directors whom I prayed with in the morning and attended the Satsangs with Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Harikrishnan and Dr. Kesari.
You have together woven a web of love, warmth in which each patient feels safe and protected, so much so that the thought of stepping back into the world seems a scary thought.
I had the privilege of speaking with Dr. Ramkumar and receiving his Vision, expanding beyond vaidyagrama to balagrama, the senior citizen project, the green school etc; and I am super excited and charged because I too want to belong to this community.
Thank you all. Love,

I am not sure if it is the love of doctor and staffs that has been healing me or the medication and treatments; perhaps the whole holistic approach.
Thank you Dr. Ramadas and other doctors. Thank you Shiny my therapist - your love, care and kindness are beyond words and that is very healing to me. I felt taken cared for and pampered.
I hope to see you all next year!

I discovered Vaidyagrama by gut, googling the internet. In a way I flowed. This space has something special, it slowly reels you in, giving you time, drawing you into a tight hug that you just don’t want to leave. It allows you to find your space, a bit like a womb. I found the conversations with Dr.Ramkumar and with other patients, (we by the way, the most interesting mix of people I have met in a long time), resonating with my inner struggle. The internal medicines and the external Satsangs, poojas , conversations, set afire synaptic connections that make one come alive.
Thank you, Dr.Harikrishnan and Dr.Kesari for keeping an eye for me. Therapists Biju, Arun and Yadu have been great.
You all have a great space here. I wish the community grows larger and the dreams of the founders come alive.
Thank you for the healing! Lastly I thank the Creator for bringing me here, the medications, the food, the rest, the care.
God bless you all, the earth the universe. Om shanthi

Being at vaidyagrama has been such a learning experience. When you are always busy in your normal life, it is a total shock when you can do nothing but take rest. I went through a week of torment before my mind finally relaxed a little. I could have actually used a full month to let go more. I am so grateful to all the therapists and the doctors, the heat and boredom. I am clearer, happier and healthier for this experience.
Thank you

Stay at Vaidyagrama was giving a feeling of lifestyle in ancient India - “Pure. Natural. Pious.” It was an experience of understanding Annamaya Deha, an experience, which took beyond physical boundary. My sincere Pranams to all Vaidyas and helpers of whole treatment... Of course, including the office staff. I will keep up the medication and style of life with a principle of Ayurveda.

We have had a lovely stay at vaidyagrama. The aesthetics is so compelling. The central tree in our block bathed in light, is a photo shared with all our friends.
It’s amazing that a once-barren plot of land is now beautiful with flowers and pretty birds.
We have loved the food. Cannot understand how we managed to lose some weight.
Above all, everyone has been friendly and helpful, and taken great care of every aspect.
Dr.Ramkumar’s satsangs were thought-provoking and enjoyable. Vaidyagrama is an embodiment of ancient indigenous knowledge revived in a great organization.
CEOs can learn from the open discussion at the satsang!
We also appreciate Punarnava Ayurveda/ vaidyagrama efforts on working closely with the village, and in particular, Balagrama.
Thank you

My joint pain made me come to Vaidyagrama as a first priority.
The moment I entered the gate, I felt the difference. The natural healing place with plenty of trees around, birds chirping, peacock wandering! It is amazing... a true healing village.
Doctors, therapists, staff are wonderful. My therapist Shiny was very supportive. In her lean body, she has so much power. Aparna made it like a home even before reaching here. I had the best day with her going around.
Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Harikumar are so knowledgeable that with their treatment plan, my pain level already went down to 40%.
I felt not only healed physically, but also at the emotional and spiritual level.
I wish Dr. Ramkumar and his whole team, the very best for their wonderful work.

I am sad to be leaving, and find myself becoming increasingly irritable over little things.
Yesterday I walked around the grounds after lunch, letting my eyes sink deeply into the lush vegetation in which so many animals have made a contented home, and noticing here and there, the housekeeping staff quietly going about their business tending to the plants and trees. It was such a peaceful, restful, harmonious scene; I felt a terrible pang at the thought I will have to leave it so soon. I will miss sitting on my veranda listening to the birds’ songs very much.
Thank you to all the doctors and staff for taking such good care of me, and my heartfelt apologies for all the times I have failed to appreciate it as much as I should. I hope to do a better job of continuing your good work back home. I hope I am fortunate to be able to keep coming back here.

The atmosphere of the hospital is warm and friendly. All the staff does their job sincerely. The doctors are friendly, kind hearted and understanding. The hospital takes initiative to keep the boredom away with some activities. It is a novel experiment and practice. Yet the Institution could be done more professionally. I wish the experiment all the success and may God bless all the staff.

It had been really a pleasure for me to stay here in Vaidyagrama for my treatment for psoriasis. The hospital atmosphere is quite different from others, and I felt I was in a world of love and affection. The doctors have been extremely good, in fact, no words to explain. The staff, therapists and all others have been behaving very well with me. I pray to God that the Punarnava organization should grow well to reach the heights of Himalayas.

Vaidyagrama has been a perfect “reset” for me in the midst of travelling for a year to write a book. It was no joke to stop all the doing, but every moment was precious. What a beautiful place to come back into your heart and take up residence again.
I only stayed 2 weeks that is what had planned and, but now I know and wish I could stay a full month. Next time for sure. There will definitely be a next time.
I felt layers of physical toxins, but also mental, emotional, spiritual toxins being stripped away, and as of the day of my departure, I am feeling a little raw, but excited to get to continue my work from a more peaceful and aligned place in my heart and soul.
Thank you, doctors, staff and all the birds for this healing experience!

Dear Vaidyagrama,
This is the second time I am visiting you. It is always such a pleasure to be here. I have no second thoughts when I want to take up treatment here. The positive energy across the campus is more than enough to cure anything. As always, the stay has been pleasant. The stay here always opens up to a fresh restart to the mind and body.
I am extremely grateful for the entire staff of Vaidyagrama. Each of you takes care of me with so much warmth and affection. I am truly blessed to have known this place and to take up the treatment. Thank you Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr. Kesari and Dr. Athulya for all the patience you had to listen and understand my concerns and treating it in the best way possible. Thanks to my therapists Biju, Arun, Vinod and Lalu. If not for these Doctors and therapists, I wouldn’t have had such a smooth healing experience. I also take this opportunity to appreciate the efforts taken by Aparna and Geetha for coordinating the stay and managing other activities.
Thank you all again! Hope to be here soon.

Thank you all for your care and support. Staying at Vaidyagrama has not been easy for me- the heat, the dryness have especially been challenging. I came with a lot of ideas and expectations about my research and only slowly as those fell away, was I able to settle in to what this place offers more fully of the body, mind, spirit, cleansing my mind has also been the most difficult – but not just the beauty of the landscape, but how intricate and alive it is, the stillness, the insights from the Satsangs have all been profound – and along with the skill and care of the doctors and therapists, I leave here so much more centered and grounded, and with more clarity about what matters.
Thank you all for everything!

Vaidyagrama.... I was not sure what to expect when I arrived. After going through severe pain for 7 months I was a bit apprehensive. During the treatment, there were ups and downs, but Dr. Ramadas and his team provided me the utmost care. Vaidyagrama is a beautiful and peaceful place. Doctors and therapists were caring, and I thank them for the honest advice and genuine care. Housekeeping staff and kitchen staff were excellent. Many thanks to kitchen staff for accommodating my dietary requirements.
Bindu, Archana, Shiny and Shiny mol, thank you loads for your patience and care. I enjoyed our chit chats and giggles.
Aparna, such a sweet and friendly person to talk to.
The reception ladies Kanagu, Bindu, and Shilji, I felt you guys are positive energy for me. When I feel down, all I have to do is come down to reception and I can feel the change in me. It felt as if I was with my friends. Thank you heaps for the love and care. I thoroughly enjoyed our chats and laughs.
Dr. Ramadas, I have no words to express my gratitude to you and the team of Doctors. Thank you, doctor, for all your support and encouragement. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation about various topics. I will never forget our "Sidhan" in this life.
Many thanks, to Dr. Ramanandan for his support and guidance.
Dr. Ramadas, you have an excellent team here! You and your team went above and beyond to make my stay here comfortable.
With all my heart I thank you guys.

On my 21st day today, when I look back and think how did it go?, I have so many positives to savour.
As an airline pilot for last 10 years, I was having trouble with my sleep patterns, gas, acidity, indigestion, higher than usual heart rate (90-95) and developed psoriatic patches on my scalp too. Basically, my mind and body started getting messed up. After having enough of allopathic experiments I decided to go the (good old Indian) Ayurveda way and that is how Vaidyagrama happened. I came here to completely surrender with nothing to lose. And it's just unbelievable how much I have gained here.
Under Dr. Ramadas’ observation and care I felt healed from day 1. He is not only an amazing doctor, but also a great soul. The daily pujas and Satsangs became a way of living and the other people I met along the treatment became friends and family at Vaidyagrama.
Dr. Ramkumar has this vast knowledge which is not confined to Ayurveda, but anything and everything about Life. These are the two people I will remember forever. Thanks to all of the housekeeping staff and kitchen people for taking such good care.
Thanks to Aparna and Geetha, Jayshree, and Shiny, Iliyas and Lalu; Preeti for the best food. I can't thank the doctors enough.
P.S. There is a significant improvement in my mental and physical well-being reduction in psoriatic patches/ good sleep/ energy level / All good. Thanks

This is my second experience of stay at Vaidyagrama. I enjoyed my stay here. It is a very calm place, with great healers Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Aruna. The therapists are wonderful; they understand my pain and they tried all possible ways to heal me. I had a wonderful learning experience during Satsangs with many doctors who are knowledgeable. I like the traditional way of starting the day with a prayer and ending with a prayer, which adds meaning to our life.
Thank you for the ladies who helped to clean the room.
Thank you.

Doctors and Family of Vaidyagrama,
We had an excellent treatment in this authentic Ayurveda centre. The entire set up and atmosphere is conducive to Ayurveda healing.
The morning and evening prayers meditation, Satsangs & talks on Ayurveda gave us a fantastic feeling of peace and a frame of mind for healing the body.
After having tried a few Ayurveda care centres, we have finally found one destination for Ayurveda care and healing.
We have not come across so much dedication; seldom have doctors given a detailed briefing on post-care after discharge from the centre.
Thanks and God bless all of you!

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
The past 2.5 weeks have been wonderful I came here with a back so bad, that I had trouble with simple, basic movements. I am leaving here, virtually pain free.
Aside from the physical aspect, this was a great 2.5 weeks of getting back in touch with myself. Reminding me of the things that are important to me, making me realize how much of our daily lives are spent in responding to stimulus we don’t need.
I hope to take these lessons back with me and lead a healthier and more intentional life.
Thank you to the entire team!

This is my fourth visit to vaidyagrama and it only reinforced my faith in the healing process, it symbolizes for!
I would like to specially thank Dr Harikrishnan whose calm and reassuring demeanour inspires confidence; and his team esp. Dr Athulya, Dr Kesari and Dr Radhika.
Among the therapists, I am lucky to again be in good hands of Lakshmi chechi and a new one Akhila. Their dedication at work as indeed that of all the staff from housekeeping, gardeners, office staff and kitchen is touching. Changes in food measures and preparations were the biggest surprise and of course very welcome ones. Once again, thanks to everyone for making my stay pleasant and helping me heal my body and mind.

I would like to thank all the doctors who took care of me and were so patient with me.
I am Katia, French with 60% Indian blood – hence this stay was mainly to cure myself from a health perspective but it did far more in fact. I renewed my link to India, Indian spirituality, Indian mindset which is very different from western’s .This was a good surprise for me and a wonderful gift that I did not expect when coming here. I met very interesting people here either patients or doctors, and we exchanged a lot about life and how to live it best. After the treatment, I got this strange feeling that I found back my body, which was very positive and also unexpected.
Hence I will never forget about Vaidyagrama and its wonderful team who proves that a different world can exist in harmony with any living being. Now it is time for me to go back to France, and I will for sure do not live the same way – I do not know yet if I will apply all this I learnt here (probably not) but i will try to do my best.
Thanks to all again and hope that Vaidyagrama will live long time!
Love,

I came to Vaidyagrama after having exhausted all other treatment options for a fairly uncommon medical problem. I am really grateful for the care and attention that I received here. These three weeks have taught me to look at healing from a new perspective. Amazing team of doctors and para medical staff!
Beautiful and secure atmosphere that enhances the healing process! I feel much better already, and think I finally see some light at the end of the treatment.
Special and heartfelt thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Aruna, Dr. Anupama and Dr. Arsha.

It has been an inspiring time for me.
The three weeks that I spent here were inspiring to see values, ethos and the Vision of the place, and its spirit reflecting in the actions of every staff member. The love, warmth and nurturing each of them demonstrated significantly contributed to my healing.
All the quiet and tranquillity of the place compelled me into a space of reflection that reminded me of all the things that I ought to be grateful for.
Of course, Dr. Ramadas and all the other doctors and the therapists- The conversations were full of insight and refreshing and optimistic perspectives. That kind of completed my treatment.
I leave, filled with hope and knowing that I will keep this wisdom in my heart, which will never be far from here.
Grateful to all of you at vaidyagrama..

In one’s own time and must not last forever.
The heart must be, at each new call for leaving without to part and start without the tragic,
without the grief, with courage to endeavour a novel bond,
a disparate connection.
For each beginning bears a special magic
That nurtures living and bestows protection
We will walk from space to space in glad progression
And should not cling to one as homestead for us
The cosmic spirit will not bind nor bare us,
It lifts and widens us in every session for hardly set in one of life’s expanses we make it home and apathy commences.
But only he, who travels and take chances can break the habits paralyzing stances.
It even may be that the last of hours will make us once again a youthful lover.
The call of life to us forever flowers.
Thank you for giving me back strength and power that I can follow my next step with a heart full of love, acceptance and peace.
Yours,

I am really happy to stay with peace and God’s grace in this place. All are easy to make a friendship with a cute smile. I got a real healing from the god of Ayurveda, Dhanwanthari. Because of my injury, I was truly realised and healed by here. That makes me very happy to fulfil my requirements; doctor’s approach and encouragement are so good.

My treatment and experience at Vaidyagrama has been amazing; such a nurturing and healing place. All the staff are wonderful, kind and have looked after me well. The hospital, rooms and facility are ideal. The rooms are large and clean and it’s great to have a personal outdoor space.
I have found the satsang talks very useful and great support whilst here. I have enjoyed the other activities very much. It’s been good to see Indian life and learn about Hindu traditions. The doctors here have been very professional and have been an excellent support during my stay.
Really enjoyed my time here.
Thank you

I had a very brief stay in Vaidyagrama. The experience I had here is inexplicable in words.
Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr Kesari, Dr Radhika, Dr Athulya are all very humble and attentive to our problems. They welcomed me as if this is my 100th visit to Vaidyagrama.
Dedication to duty - I could see this in every simple work. I could have never imagined that I can spend time without TV, laptop. Right from early morning till going to bed, the doctors and therapists took care of me very well.
Right kind of food, followed by right medicines, given at right time by right people can cure any disease. This is the feeling I carry with me. I thank all the staff , therapists, housekeeping staff and above all Dr.Harikrishnan and doctors for having given a memorable experience.
Let your duty continue as the same is duty of god.

To All at Vaidyagrama, Thousand Pranams !!!!
The 6 days I have been here, was a fantastic experience; never missed my family and home. Being in the hospitality industry it is essential to satisfy the customer needs. Here it was a customer delight!
All the people whom I was in touch took good care of me right from Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Kesari, Dr.Radhika., therapists ,the housekeeping ladies, the pantry-in-charge taught me many things, keeping everything simple & humble.
Had a chance to meet Geetha and Aparna too. Heard a lot of things about Punarnava and Punarnava Trust’s noble things done for society.
‘System makes things possible, but it is the people who make it happen’.
With the kind of involved and motivated group at Vaidyagrama, it is for sure to go places. Thanks for giving the opportunity to pen my feelings!

Dearest vaidyagrama Family,
Thank you for welcoming me back to the beautiful space of peace, tranquillity, birds, prayer, simplicity, love and healing. Thank you for taking care of me, for supporting me, teaching me and showing me by example that a simple, peaceful, harmonious and healthy life is possible. Thank you for all the nurturing and nourishment for feeding my soul, and enabling me to open my mind and heart. I cherish the care and love shown to me and that drives this community.
I acknowledge and feel deep gratitude to everyone who has contributed to my healing at all levels- the kitchen, staff, the support staff, the doctors, therapists, administration.
Dr. Ramadas- Thank you for your gentle presence, compassionate care and also for the laughter when you show me sometimes how much I “sweat the small stuff ”
Dr. Aruna – For your understanding and taking time to explain things to me.
Dr. Anupama – For your care
Archana - for taking care of me and being so patient, always with a smile.
Jaysree - for all your care and concern.
Baby Aunty for making my rooms special.
And to all the staff for your contribution.
I pray that only good and beautiful things come your way.
May you all are blessed with love, peace, good health and prosperity until we meet again.
Be well!
Much love and blessings,

With deep-seated gratitude, respect and a sense of well being Gauri, Shilpa, and I (Natasha) would like to thank Vaidyagrama for giving us an opportunity to engage with our selves and learn a special way of healing, caring and love through Ayurveda.
The exemplary patience, experience and knowledge brought to our lives by Dr Harikrishnan.K.K and his team Dr Athulya, Dr.Kesari, Dr Radhika, the lovely attendants Vidya, Indu, Lakshmi &all the support team from housekeeping, Sonia, the team at the Reception & the kitchen provided an experience which will stand the test of time.
The immense learning from the engaging Satsangs held by Dr Ramkumar and Dr Ramadas, his prayers, classes , have all left a very special impression in our minds and hearts.
We hope that we will reflect through our thoughts and well-being what we learned at Vaidyagrama when we return to our homes and place of work in Delhi tomorrow.
Growing up, my grandmother who lived in Kashmir never failed to remind us to learn from faiths and cultures which were other than ours .Through very simple, prayers she taught us that there is one god and He resides in each of us as we reside within Him amongst each other..as One.
This is beautifully epitomized by our memorable journey at Vaidyagrama .We are in gratitude to the family here where doctors ,attendants, patients all come together, as one to create an experience which is perfect, whole and in healing and well-being for whole. Am sharing a message from the Sikh guru Nanak dev ji who said, before becoming a Muslim, Sikh, Hindu or a Christian let us become a human.
It meant in any ways to become one and whole as humans perfecting the role rather than being fragmented and losing ourselves in separation. The essence of this is taught through the first root verse from the Sikh scriptures, which is also a very special prayer for strength and healing. May the universe inspire to shower upon all of you, your familes and Vaidyagrama the blessing of the creator for health, happiness and wellbeing ahead!
With warm regards,
Natasha Chaudari, Shilpa Gupta, Gauri Bhargava

It did not feel that I have come for my ailments. It is a wonderful little heaven, with very friendly and loving people. Very polite, even if they had made a little mistake, otherwise I would have shouted but I only had love and compassion for them. It was a wonderful experience and I feel like coming again and again.
Hope it remains like this for ever.
Thanks for everything.

In February this year, a voice whispered to my ear that it was the right time to take a plane ticket to India and make reservation at vaidyagrama. After 21 days in the healing and peaceful place, I am deeply convinced it was one of the best decisions I have taken in my life – I am just starting to perceive the benefits of all treatments received and the power of the energy of this wonderful oasis on earth. When I will be back here, piece of consciousness will gradually show up.
The gratitude goes to the amazing people that are making vaidyagrama everyday, to the profound knowledgeable and wise medical team to the patient and smiling therapists and all the persons who work here and with who we do not have interaction.
The work synergy of this amazing team is felt from the very first step in vaidyagrama. I am deeply thankful for this transforming experience and this blessed opportunity that have been given to me.
My best wishes for everyone at vaidyagrama

I almost escaped on the third day. Now I am not sure I want to leave! I can truly say that this could not have come at a better time. Everything happens for a reason or just as it should? Thank you to everyone! I ‘m sure there are many people that are behind the scenes that make this place what it is. The people that i have interacted with have made me feel very welcome & at home. It does feel like a family here. There seems to be a true, caring, and companionate interaction occurring in vaidyagrama that does not exist in most organisations or businesses. People care about each other! Yummy food! Mostly wonderful treatments Ha Ha Ha ! Great satsangs (why don’t we learn this stuff in school) and I’m learning to spend more time on positive thoughts and love.

This was our first visit to vaidyagrama, so we didn’t know what to expect. But as soon as we walked through and smelled the curry leaves, Neem, Tulsi and other herbs, our mind was at peace. Very inspired by Dr. Ramkumar’s Vision, and the love and dedication of every staff members... from the senior doctors to the therapists to the Gardeners and kitchen staff.
Even the kanji and moong dal grew on us by week 2! As we leave this sacred place, we hope to carry the spirit of vaidyagrama and all the wise lessons from Satsangs, the letting go, the discipline, the diet, and the syncing patterns of Nature with us. We thank you for all the thoughtful attention to detail at every level of the treatment.

During my fourteen days of stay, felt at home, keeping my door open all long day with no stress.
Thank you all for the kindness, quietness, affection, listening, authenticity....
I am sure treatment will be so effective that I will come back every year.....I hope so.
It was also nice to do or just listen to the prayer.
Special thanks to Dr. Anupama, who was so professional, gentle and patient with me.

This has been my 9th trip to vaidyagrama, I have seen it grow and develop into a healing place with amazing positive energy. Dr. Ramkumar’s Vision has made this a miracle place.
The doctors, one and all, are of course extremely knowledgeable; but it’s their dedication and kindness that helps us heal.
Dr. Ramadas, with his wonderful smile and patience, is so calm, which helps to heal just by looking and listening to him.
Dr. Aruna, Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Mubash all has been very caring. The therapists are again so caring and gentle. Devaki was excellent. The cleanliness is always excellent.
The food improves every time I come - I think Preeti is doing a difficult job very well. Not easy to please everyone.
Inshallah, will return next year to this healing paradise.
Thank you everyone!

To the wonderful / loving people at Vaidyagrama
I have completed four weeks here and am so blessed and happy to have experienced the warm care and healing that is in abundance here.
My initial week was a little tough, and I was concerned about how I would last for 28 days. You all have made me feel so comfortable & relaxed, that I am leaving feeling healed & at peace.
A very special thank you to Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Ramkumar, Dr.Kesari, Dr.Athulya, the cleaning staff, and block 7’s wonderful therapists- Kalpana, Mrudula and Vaishnavi- they were all very attentive to my needs. I have truly felt very much at home, and hope this healing continues as I leave this peaceful sanctuary. My wish is to return here soon to continue in my journey of health and wellness.
All the best to you as you keep the spirit alive here- there is definitely a wonderful healing energy here that envelops all of us who are fortunate to experience.
Last but not least, thanks to Aparna & Preeti as well for their help in questions I had – they were always there for me too.
Love to all,

Living in line with Nature, with simple food and expert authentic treatment methods are the highlighting factors of this place. This place will definitely bring out the "Simple "person residing inside everyone.

Coming to Vaidyagrama for me is a promise that I will be rejuvenated not only in body, but also in spirit.
Each time I go back, I am healthier, happier and optimistic. I grow in self assurance that I can cope with all my health issues.
The environment, the treatment, the doctors, the therapists and staff do their best in understanding the patients. I would term them nothing less than miracle work. I have freed myself from a few chronic conditions, and I owe it to the doctors here.
My stay here for the past 24 days have been blissful, peaceful and content. I am in complete solidarity with the treatments, procedures, food and faculties provided here at Vaidyagrama.
I feel truly blessed to have had this experience.
My special thanks to Dr. Ramkumar, Dr Harikrishnan.K.K, Dr Kesari,
Dr Athulya, Dr Radhika, therapist Lakshmi chechi, Abhila , Vaishnavi, Aparna and Kavitha, Dr Ramadas and Dr Ramanandan too.
I thoroughly enjoyed all the Satsang and community dinner too.
I pray that the spirit behind the Vision of Vaidyagrama stays alive always.
My sincere wishes and prayer will always remain with all of you.

I have enjoyed my days here, healing, learning about Ayurveda and a traditional way of life and observing the plants and these from my veranda.
I am grateful to Dr. Ramadas and his team and all at vaidyagrama who do a fantastic job to ensure we have a comfortable healing experience.

It is a unique and fantastic experience, my wife and I had during our stay of two weeks in Vaidyagrama.
We came for treatment thinking that it will be just a chikitsalayam, but later we realised it is not only for treatment for illness but also to purify our mind and soul!! The environment itself is so healing; it is so clean and neat everywhere.
The doctors and staff are so friendly and dedicated!!
One cannot expect this type of discipline and work elsewhere.
Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Krishnadas, Dr. Arsha, Dr. Aruna and Dr. Anupama (three A’s) are so friendly to patients.
Dr. Ramkumar’s vision is great! His idea of enhancing the existing, developing ‘Green Village’ is highly remarkable.
We wish him and his entire team all success!

The therapists have played a crucial role in my healing as well. In particular, my thanks to Reshma for her cheerful smile and determination to help me get better.
I will carry home what i have learned about Ayurveda replacing old bad habits with new healthy ones.

This is my 2nd visit to vaidyagrama within a span of year. Realisation of mistakes drew to me during the course of my treatment. For me it is a place to come to not just to treat health issues but makes changes to my perspective of life, a way of living in the wide world. The “free-will” available to exercise to human, how best we should redirect to the
benefit of our mind, body and spirit (soul).
During the 40 days course of treatment, there were ups and downs; but hats off to the patience, constant care and attention of all Dr’s (Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Aruna, Dr.Anupama, Dr. Arsha, Dr. Krishnadas), therapists (Bindu, Archana, Mythily, Shyni)
Along with the treatment I see my mind opening up to a light, both moments during my chats with Dr. Ramadas; his treatment included spiritual healing for me. Dr. Ramkumar, you are an inspiration to the powerhouse of knowledge you possess, for which I was always at a loss for questions. With gratitude, I bow down and thank you all
Staff I have not named who have directly and indirectly contributed to my healing process and not forgetting the co-patients whom we all beautifully blend with during our healing journey. These all are bonds and memories for a lifetime.
Thank you!!

I congratulate Dr. Ramkumar and his panel of senior doctors for their Vision and the execution of the project. The support staffs are excellent, and during our stay the weather was brilliant.
Chanting of Vishnu sahasranama and Lalita sahasranama in the morning and evening was a pleasant experience. Also big thanks for holding weekly cow pooja and show caring for the animal in a good way thus. I can keep writing pages, but will stop here with a special thanks to Dr. Ramadas!

To Vaidyagrama family,
We stayed here for 19 days. It has been such a great experience. All the doctors are so good and caring.
I am especially thankful to Dr. Harikrishnan.K.K, Dr Kesari and Dr. Athulya. This is not a hospital; we felt as if we are staying with a family. All the therapists are very good.
Thanks to Dr Ramkumar, he gave such a useful knowledge you can’t afford to miss and his wonderful Vision. He is a great man.
Food is Ok. It should be improved. Even healthiest food can be made tastier, and then there will not be wastage of food. People in office are a bit slow and they could improve their service.
With lots of love,

To My Dear Vaidyagrama family
Yes, after my stay of 45 days here, Vaidyagrama has become like another family. All the staff members, doctors, have made my stay blissful and healing. They have taken care of my treatments like the way your family close to you does.
The food, the environment, and the care - everything makes Vaidyagrama a perfect healing place. I am also thankful to all the other doctors with whom we had wonderful satsangs and prayer sessions. The efficiency of all the staff members is excellent.
I once again thank Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr Kesari, Dr Athulya & Dr Radhika for taking my care. I am sure Vaidyagrama will keep up the tradition of authentic Ayurveda & help heal numerous around the world.
In the present days where allopathic is spreading its wings- it is becoming more and more challenging to preserve our wonderful tradition of Ayurveda which I think is true healing or rather holistic healing.
I really admire the Vision of Dr Ramkumar for creating Vaidyagrama to spread the light of Ayurveda. My best wishes.

I am eternally grateful i have found an oasis like this, where truth& integrity still blossom.

Treatment therapy and kashayam is healing the whole body and it felt good for the body. The diet food, satsangs and interactions between the doctor and patient, the prayer was very useful and provided peace of mind. Once again I thank you all for the wonderful stay at vaidyagrama

God manifests His presence in Nature and in every one of us, and this is beautifully expressed at vaidyagrama.
My heartfelt thanks to Dr. Ramadas and all his team in block 3, thank you Dr. Ramkumar for your infinite patience at satsang and a resounding cheer, and thanks to all the staff who make vaidyagrama such an oasis of peace and healing.
I would especially like to applaud the dedication and focus of the lady gardeners who care for the plants with such love and care.
Saturday’s group dinner prompted me to pen words to a song to be sung to the age old tune of ‘Ke sera bena’
3 weeks ago in vaidyagrama, we had no idea, what we would see very soon we found, knowledge profound life lived in harmony.
“Oh! What joy to be
Living in simplicity,
With doctors so caring and kind,
Guiding body and mind,
Our brains are full of facts they are,
Doshas - vata, pitta, kapha
Simple food we love, well for all tum
Kanji, kitchadi, kashayam – chorus
Armed with basics of ayurveda
Mindful of diet, dinacharya
Thanks to all the staff who made our stay perfect in every way - (chorus)
Thanks, thanks, thanks

I have to give the credit for our coming to vaidyagrama to my wife Hootoksi. We had heard about it from Yazdi, who was miraculously cured here; an unbelievable achievement.
At first I was rather sceptical and was in two minds whether to accompany Hootoksi or not. The decision to go along was made almost at the last moment and I’m sure I will never forget it.
My 21 days stay has been an eye opener and an important learning experience.
Although I came with no serious health issues I leave 21 days later feeling rejuvenated, with a cleaner mind and fresh resolve.
For this I thank the doctors, the therapists, the kitchen and all the other staff from the bottom of my heart. In my 60 years of working in different countries I have never experienced a more friendly, caring and helpful group of people than there at vaidyagrama.
I hope I will have an opportunity to visit again, and even if I am not so fortunate I will always have the nicest things to say about vaidyagrama to whoever will listen.

I am so grateful for our time in vaidyagrama.
A truly big thanks to my senior doctors, junior doctors, therapists and staff.
We had a wonderful experience, and we hope to see you again.
Our suggestions:
All staff should speak basic English and hindi language.
Also, there should be some physical activities.(Indoor)
Our best wishes and lots of love; once again, thanks.

I had no idea what to expect and I can honestly say it has been nothing short of amazing! A true honour to have been cared for so well by the therapists, doctors, admin, as well as other patients. I can finally say I have a happy place, and I use the word honour because this kind of exceptional care is rare in U.S. I very much look forward to returning next summer with my mother. Vaidyagrama is overwhelming in the most wonderful way.
A great place and people to spend my birthday... with beautiful gardens, very relaxing even for my eyes; I loved eating the food with my fingers.
I cannot thank everyone here enough for the love and care. I haven’t got it all figured out, but I know it’s all gonna be okay and am a bit closer than when I arrived.
Preeti rocks. Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Ramkumar are the best.

I came to vaidyagrama with very little knowledge of what it was going to be like. My intuition said that this was what I needed and I came here ready to surrender my body and mind. It was this attitude and trust that allowed me to gain the most out of my treatment and time here. 20 days later, I am leaving cleansed, calmer, with a lot more peace of mind and like the pot in my courtyard says- FAITH in the journey of life...like Dr.Ramadas said on day 1, I have found balanced answers to a lot of my questions.
I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude for everyone here at vaidyagrama.
A special thank you to Dr.Ramadas and Shinymol for your kindness and patience.
I am truly blessed to have had this experience.
Endless love and gratitude,

The three weeks we spent in Vaidyagrama gave me and my mother the opportunity to bond with each other and talk more about things we have no time to talk about at home. Because of the peace and quiet, I was able to catch up on lots of school work and I feel that the three weeks here are not only useful for spiritual awareness, but also for doing things one cannot do at home. My mother and i would like to thank Dr. Ramanandan and the group of therapists working in block 6 for just being so kind to us. We will come back soon!
Thank you!

It’s been amazing and tough in equal measure, but the results have been absolutely worth it.
I feel lighter; my asthma, eczema has improved significantly and i am leaving with a calmer head. Am sure I will feel much more energetic once I get home too.
Thank you all the doctors and nurses for your kindness and attentiveness. And for keeping me on the straight and narrow through my cravings!

Coming to vaidyagrama has been one of the most powerful experiences I have ever had. I did not know what to expect. I chose to put myself in the hands of the Universe. I feel truly blessed to be a part of this wonderful place and now am a part of vaidyagrama family.
My time here has impacted me in so many levels - spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. I feel truly blessed, and thank all of you for your incredible life changing opportunity. I have learned so much.
Thank you Dr.Ramadas and all the amazing doctors; your work here is truly kind.

We came to Vaidyagrama with an open mind, not fully knowing what to expect.
We were able to understand and experience the meaning of Ayurveda as well as the principles and values behind it, during our stay.
We leave tomorrow with an enhanced feeling of goodness and awareness. We would like to put in a special word for the professionalism and constant attention we received from the Doctors. The therapists were also very helpful and caring.
We shall certainly return to review the experience.

We have been here for 22 days. We had a great relaxation and rejuvenation. The treatment and care was all up to our expectation, and we had great satisfaction. The daily activities in vaidyagrama were also interesting and informative.
The treatment was very good and we could feel the improvement during the course of the treatment itself and we are expecting complete recovery in the mean time with the same confidence.
And we have planned for a yearly visit to vaidyagrama...We thoroughly enjoyed the ambience, food, care, activities on the whole.
Sincere thanks to Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikumar, Dr.Mubash and other junior doctor Dr.Anupama.
Thank you very much doctors, staff, therapists for your dedicated services.

Dear Doctors and staff at Vaidyagrama,
This has been the first time for Basanti and I to Vaidyagrama. We had heard great things about Vaidyagrama, but the reality is it is even more special.
Firstly and most importantly, every one has been so warm and loving to Basanti... that is to be remembered always. And then the approach of the doctors, their presence in terms of being genuine and gentle is deeply appreciated. Like many, I had been to other doctors for my health issues- but now I feel I am on the right path.
Also, the building design, the pujas, the cooking classes, garden walk, are all in our memories. Most of all, I love that the whole area is surrounded by Ayurvedic herbal plants and trees. Truly wonderful!

First time here, and it was definitely a lovely experience. To be far away from home for about 3 weeks seemed really long, but it went by quickly. Special thanks to Dr.Ramanandan, Dr.Harikumar, Dr. Anupama, Dr. Sivajyothi, Dr.Mubash and the therapists Pravina, Reshma who were really caring and helpful.
Some interesting encounters and bonding were made over these few days, and that made our stay even more enriching. Finally the day of departure has come, and it is with a heavy heart that we are leaving.
Planning to come back again next year.

To all the wonderful people at Vaidyagrama,
Our arrival at Vaidyagrama brought us to a completely different world, so calm and close to Nature with a sense of strong connection to the ancient Ayurvedic Healing.
Although the first few days were a bit difficult to adapt, we soon adjusted ourselves to the lifestyle at Vaidyagrama with the help of the caring Doctors. The lovely, caring staff & the meticulous cleaners, made our stay very comfortable.
We are very grateful to all the Doctors and the therapists who treated us, and we appreciate their patience in addressing our requirements during our stay. A fact to be admired at Vaidyagrama is how well all the staff are trained & disciplined.
A very special THANK YOU to Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Kesari & Dr.Athulya for taking such special care of our health. Our therapists Kalpana & Mrudula, Lakshmi, Vaishnavi are very kind and caring. Today we leave Vaidyagrama with lovely memories and a better health, which we wish to keep & continue for the days to come.
All of the charity works organized by Vaidyagrama need much recognition and admiration. Wishing Vaidyagrama Great Success & a wonderful future in these endeavours to heal people in need.
All the Best!

My very first time in India and of course I have spent all my time at Vaidyagrama. I did not experience anything of the outside world. But I came here for healing, and that I did.
My 4 ½ weeks here were not always easy, as my body went through the various detox processes and not always reacted as I expected. So learning to live with the highs and lows of healing; the mental challenges as well as the physical were also a learning curve.
Thank you to the Doctors and other staff for helping me through my lows, celebrating with me my physical highs.
Vaidyagrama was exactly what I had expected like on the website.
The healing space that has been created is beautiful, calming. I am so impressed with sustainability approach, living simple in line with Nature. Hardly any waste; and all the recycling that is in place. Living by example is the way to change this world.
I had a wonderful healing experience on all 3 levels - Body,mind and spirit !
Thank you to everyone for being so human and welcoming; and allowing or better me with the opportunity to feel part of the Vaidyagrama family.
With lots of love to everyone!
Keep up the good work.

Dr.Ramdas, Dr.Aruna, Shyni and the therapists, housekeeping, cooks, administration, doctors, gardeners, I thank you for the very important work you all are doing to save the people s life, to make this world a better place.
Vaidyagrama has no comparison. The beauty here is breath-taking and I will have these gorgeous patios, gardens, forests, covered walk ways and kind faces imprinted in my heart and on my mind forever. I cannot wait to come back with my family. I will share this experience with everyone I know. Preeti, thank u for your five star meals; and Aparna, thank you for making this happen.

The place is filled with good vibration and energy, which gives the feel and confidence that we can recover soon. Such helping and kind therapists (Efficient Bindhu and sweet Archana) and housekeeping staff also made our stay very pleasant. Not to miss out all the doctors who keep checking for my welfare. Such a wonderful place that you are maintaining.
Kudos to the great team work and hard work!
A special thanks and gratitude to Dr.Ramadas, who has taken away my fear from me and shown me a great path through love and Ayurveda. Move over, this place given me a lot of spiritual thoughts and knowing, which will help me to live my life and lead it holistically. Keep flourishing!

To My Dear Vaidyagrama Family,
I walked through the door of Vaidyagrama two weeks ago, with goals that my doctors in USA thought would be impossible to achieve in 2 weeks. I leave tomorrow having already surpassed the goals I had set for myself.
This is a magical place and every plant, brick and animal seem to be in sync with Nature... I felt it even before I was shown my room!
Vaidyagrama has showed me a new real and more evolved way to live. I hope I can apply every thing I have discovered here to my daily life. If every one in the world had a little slice of vaiyagrama, peace would prevail in the world.
The doctors Dr. Harikrishnan.K.K, Dr Radhika, Dr.Athulya were professional, positive, encouraging. I trust them completely. Dr.Ramdas' pujas healed my sprit, setting me back on the path of self realization that I had strayed from.
My three lovely, charming therapists – Indu, Vaishnavi, Shabiba - your very touch soothed my wrecked nerves. Your love could be felt in every drop of water you poured over me. I wish you all a happy life!
Preeti - for churning out one great meal after another. If I could eat like this all the time, I would become a better person.
Aparna - for answering my endless, annoying questions for the last few months.
And to all those who work behind the scenes to heal people who they might never see. Thank you!
And thank you Dr Ramkumar, for making such a place possible.
I hope to be back next year!
With love,

Dear family of Vaidyagrama,
It was so wonderful to note how well in synchrony and harmony you were working with each other, to make the atmosphere of Vaidyagrama conducive to healing peace of mind and body. Every member of Vaidyagrama has worked sincerely with devotion, without missing any detail in the upkeep and atmosphere of this wonderful place.
Vaidyagrama to me, has been like a family away from family. Every detail was looked into. Even the slightest discomfort was taken seriously and looked into. Thanks to all the doctors, therapists and support staff who have made me felt like I mattered, and pampered me with their attention and healing hands. Every session, treatments and satsang I have attended has been a learning and nutrition, food for thought.
I feel blessed for having met the right people, right intervention which came at the right time especially in my present state of mind and my son’s life.
God bless the family of Vaidyagrama!

Thanks to everyone in Vaidyagrama for taking care of my health, and also for providing excellent service for all the needs. I visited in October 2015 last time, during navaratri and this time also I visited during navaratri. Since this was my second visit there was no anxiety or surprise about "what to expect” as it was, and I surrendered to health professionals to take care of me. My treatment was very good and it made a lot of difference.
The food this time, compared to 2015, was a lot better in taste, but I felt quantity was more. During last visit, I assumed the quantity served is what is needed for my treatment, but this misunderstanding was cleared this time. I tried to eat less as some days my appetite was not that great. Since from my childhood I was taught not to throw food, I was always eating everything in my last visit, and also during this visit until I learnt in satsang that it is not what it is.
The satsangs were useful and informative. Sometimes I saw that people asked questions on totally different subjects, and I thought that time was not well utilized especially in Dr Harikumar’s satsang. It would be beneficial to stay focussed, as my learning depends upon what opportunity I get to listen during my short span of visit. I really enjoyed all satsang sessions and got lot of wisdom to apply those principles to my lifestyle after I return back home.
The staff is very hardworking, friendly and supportive. The massage therapist Laluprasad and others were very good. In 2015 as well as in 2017, I met Laluprasad and he was my therapist.
I got lot of privacy and was able to read philosophical books – sitting in place surrounded by trees and nature. The birds sound was fantastic and one day I was able to see the peacock as well.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone here in Vaidyagrama. You are all doing very great service to mankind. Keep it up. God bless everyone here.

All the Doctors- Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Ramadas, and Dr.Ramanadan are all experienced.
The programmes and satsangs will be very much missed. The therapists are all very good, and everyone is smiling.
A special thanks to Dr.Radhika who was a big support. She was monitoring us so well. You have taught me a lot about food.

To all at Vaidyagrama,
I must say that when I was coming here, I was quite uneasy about it- but now that I have completed 3 weeks- and am feeling so much better than when I came. I have to take it all back.
The doctors, therapists, and staff have been absolutely wonderful-gentle and understanding. And I thank you all, with all my heart, soul. May God bless you all and I hope to see you all once again.
With best regards to you all- May Vaidyagrama prosper!

You are one of the best things that has happened to me, to say the least. I shall miss you.. and this experience will be treasured. The awareness about how simple lifestyle changes can help us lead a healthy life is the major take-away from this visit. I have learned that there are so many small day-to-day activities which I have been doing wrong all my life.
I have sometimes thanked my neck pain because of which I get a chance to experience this place. The treatment, no doubt, is unique and rejuvenating; but apart from that the Puja, Satsang and the place itself together just make this place a heaven. And so many interesting people around from all parts of India and the world.
The doctors and all the therapists and the staff have been really caring, and I cannot thank them enough.
Yours Thankfully,

A big thank you to everyone who helped and supported me through this journey, especially to Dr Ramadas, Dr. Ramkumar and Dr. Ramanandan, also to the staff and therapists who treated me so well and gave me company all through namely Mr Rajesh, Ms Preethi, Ms Aparna, Junior doctors- Dr Sajna, Dr Aruna, Dr Krishnadas, Dr Mubash, Dr Arsha, the therapists- Mr Lalu and to all the others whose names I have forgotten to list, thank you all.
Although seriously the amount of names I have listed is a testimony itself to the highly personalised care one gets at this establishment.
My sincere thanks to you all.
God bless!!
Yours Lovingly,

The journey at Vaidyagrama continues… and I feel deep gratitude in being here to heal. A big, warm thank you to my doctors and their gentle (but firm) guidance, all the therapists, the medicines, the oil, the plants and this space, with all the unseen people hence-behind the scenes….

Vaidyagrama is the "space" to be in, sometime in your life! Having spent 3 weeks here, I feel I’m on the right path for my health, and therefore, happiness. Dr. Ramanandan and his able team has been one of the best things that could have happened to me, and I’m looking forward to the healing process that's expected to complete in the next 3 months.
A big thank you to Dr.Ramkumar; really enjoyed your extremely informative talks and satsangs, and for creating such a wonderful ambience.
Hope to be able to contribute to greater success of Vaidyagrama in future. All my best wishes to the entire team who put up their supportive bit in ensuring a seamless process.

I came in the last week to accompany Vishal and see for myself what is Vaidyagrama all about. It’s a little oasis where you understand the idea of 'unconditional love', acceptance and sharing. It gave a beautiful time to break away from the daily chores. Time to reflect on how much you need to let go. The team of Doctors, support staff and every single being is amazing and supportive, encouraging and smiling. The presence of divine healing energy and pure bliss is intrinsic in Vaidyagrama air.
Truly blessed and thankful. This is an association to life!!

After my 5th visit here (each for 3 weeks & one for 5), it is heartening to note that things are only going better to better. The smiles, the care, the concern of all doctors, therapists, the house keeping team, the ladies that clean the room, the gardeners, Hakim etc. is really amazing. Everyone goes out of their way to make things better. This is even if your doctors tell that anything you like to eat is not good for you.
What struck me was that most faces were recognized from earlier visits- shows that they are looked after well & so there is no need to look elsewhere.
Vaidyagrama has a heart.

My experience and stay at Vaidyagrama gets better and more meaningful every time I come back.
Apart from the healing of body, it’s the healing of mind and the healing of soul that gives me a sense of being at peace with the world.
The lessons I have learnt of acceptance are beyond measure. The warmth and the humility of all the doctors and staff, the compassion that I have been treated with, makes me feel blessed to the core.
I leave knowing that I shall be back next year, Inshah Allah.
I leave knowing that my mind and body will continue to heal for many months to come.
What has been especially heart-warming is seeing the vision envisaged by the founder doctors come to fruition, and to know that there is still so much growth to come.
Good luck and a big Thank you!

Last day, last treatment, last satsang and last puja!
Don’t want to leave, but responsibility calls.
My second time at Vaidyagrama and once again it has been an incredible experience! Living Ayurveda on a daily basis is a blessing and I am hoping to take more nuggets of wisdom with me.
Thank you Vaidyagrama family,
Dr Ramadas for your knowledge of Ayurveda and wisdom, taking such good care of me! Dr Aruna and Bindhu for my wonderful treatments.
A special thanks to Sonia and Hakeem for making my wish of a ‘traditional saree’ come true, it was far and beyond the call of duty.
Preeti and the kitchen staff for the nourishment. Preeti, I look forward to the cook book.
A heartfelt thank you to Dr.Ramkumar for all your support and guidance, I look forward to joining the vg family. Vg is a great example of a true and authentic vision and I hope it stays that way for years to come. See you next year!! My love and thanks to all the staff working behind the scenes!

Dear Vaidyagrama,
Having just planted my Papaya tree I am feeling more at peace than I have in a very long time. And I feel so hopeful for a better and brighter future for myself. The words of thanks seem insufficient. The care and consideration I have received in just 2 short weeks is above my expectations. Thank you so much the wonderful doctors for clearing with my difficult problems so calmly and so well. Thanks for listening to the changes in my body and for making me feel heard.
Thank you to the wonderful caring therapists who have treated me so well and always with a smile!
Thank you for lots of great teachers in Satsang, it is so good to hear from such wise Vaidyas. Preeti and staff, my thanks for the delightful food. I never craved anything else.
I feel I have very less road ahead, but I feel my time at Vaidyagrama has prepared me well for the journey; and I pray I can return again next year when the bad habits might return. I look forward at that time to seeing new projects and initiatives of Vaidyagrama.
Punarnava has developed as it is, not just as a place but a living, breathing, feeling, entity that is always growing. Just like the Papaya tree, it has planted a seed in my heart that will bear fruits of health, peace and happiness.
Oh, and the Community Dinners are absolutely wonderful!!!
Om Shanti Om!

Thanks to the VG family, as I complete my second year of treatment. The best part about VG is that you don’t feel like a patient. I loved my stay here and am looking forward to my next. Thanks to Dr.Harikrishnan, all my therapists, especially Lakshmi chechi, who went above and beyond and took care of me like her own daughter. Special thanks to Vidya & Vaishnavi.

Wow! When I was thinking of coming here, friends suggested places that were in my price range. Each thought in my mind and my tight budget told me that the logical choice to make was not to go to Vaidyagrama.
But I listened to my heart. This is the second place that I have found in my life that I can only describe as real. It’s a place where theory and practice come together with good results and where actions are based on principles. The environment is a grounding one. The people are striving to be their best. What beautiful examples of generosity and compassion!
In addition to a huge thank you to all the doctors and therapists for their amazing work and for keeping this place alive; & special thanks to Dr.Ramkumar for his emphasis on regular practice and to Dr.Ramdas for his advice to think positively.
I don’t want to change anything about this place. I only hope as Vaidyagrama expands, you consider building more simple rooms for the people who would like to come and cannot afford it. You do so much excellent (and important) work for the communities and you have an amazing treatment centre that is not cheap in anyway(nor should it be). I would love to see Vaidyagrama more accessible to the people in between the wealthy and the impoverished.
With nothing but gratitude, amazement and joy that this place exists.

Reset, Recharged, on the road again!
This is the sixth time that I am coming to this sacred place. This time I felt all my time here like a Celebration.
Celebration of life!
Life is too short to stay grumpy! I want to stay at ease with myself and at the same time alert-like I feel now.
Life is too short to waste it with so many problems and heaviness in the mind. Why not just to be content and happy.. We are so rich.
You are awesome! All of you.
I am very happy to be a part of Vaidyagrama family.
It was the best place to celebrate my 20 years of Ayurveda clinic.
Thank you

This is my first time staying at Vaidyagrama as well as my first visit to India. I had heard many good things about Vaidyagrama and this experience has met every expectation. From the top down, every doctor and staff member have made my stay more welcome and comfortable. From the moment of arrival, I have been more present and at peace. We live in a world of computers, cell phones and fast paced lifestyle. Vaidyagrama has been my haven of healing for the past 13 days. I am grateful for everyone that has contributed to my time of rest and hope to make Vaidyagrama my sanctuary in the future when it’s needed again.
Thank you for everything!

This is my third visit to Vaidyagrama in last 6 years. It is with immense heartfelt gratitude that I thank everyone at Vaidyagrama for the exceptional care, hospitality, service, presence, knowledge and for sharing this holistic, integrated and profoundly wise model of living in harmony with nature, with others and with ourselves.
The doctors and staff (from administration and maintenance and housekeeping to therapists, cooks and guest relations) are unparalleled in their commitment to service -always radiating a smile or acknowledgment with a hand on the heart and a sincere desire to make a difference in the quality of one’s treatment/stay.
Very special thanks to Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr Ramkumar, Dr Athulya, Dr Kesari and Lakshmi for the gracious and humble ways in which you each share your knowledge and gifts of care.
Each time I return home to the USA, I incorporate and align a layer of the Ayurveda lifestyle into my life and as a result I experience better health, more self-awareness, greater discipline, increased energy and improved relationships-internally with my own mind and body and externally in relation to others. I still have a long way to go, but it is a journey that I embrace with more conviction and optimism than ever before.
Thank you Vaidyagrama Family… I look forward to seeing you again next year.
Blessing and Love to you all!

My last evening @ VG is spent with ever smily Maheswari as she lovingly padabyangas me with the hope that I sleep well. Whether or not I do, no longer matters. I go back tomorrow with all the gifts/ tools/ knowledge be accept and be patent the love devotional and effort of so many will pay off.
When asked whether she was “enjoying” herself, one of my new friend hesitated and said, it was not her idea of “fun”; For me it was fun. I was learning, healing, having lunch with a fist sized butterfly, her hand matching mine, listening to Dr.Ramadas’s magnificent baritone, being pounded with shape, surrounded by love, nature, perfectionism, the patter patter of rain drops and chatter chatter of @ least 6 different birds....What not to enjoy!
Thank you Vaidyagrama team and all of you those I saw and met daily (Dr Ramanandan, Dr Harikrishnan, Dr.Ramadas, Devaki, Geethu, Maheswari, Kanaku, Preeti, to name a few) and those who labour behind the scene to keep the essence up. Meeting Aparna ji albeit briefly, was like catching up with an old friend. That is the spirit and energy of Vaidyagrama. A few moments is all it takes to make a connection comes through. May Vaidyagrama always be surrounded by grace.
With much love, respect and gratitude,

I feel I should write my gratitude to Lorilee and Tyler, because it is due to them that I am here. Lorilee is my yoga teacher and mentor. She has taught me so much about Ayurveda and then brought me here, to India, so that I could experience everything for myself and I am so grateful. This Panchakarma cleansing experience at vaidyagrama has reached into depths of my soul and the core of my being, refreshing me.
Re-energizing and creating a new me from the cells outward, I will take this experience with me in my heart, mind, soul and body.
And I’m sure I will be back with my own crew.

Came with a lot of fear, thinking what type of thing it must be.
But good that it was one of the best layouts I have ever seen. Everything is intricately, carefully done. The Mandir is my weak-point; the library, philosophy, sessions, staff - all was wonderful. The doctors' special attention was touching the heart, and I would like to visit again.
Thank you so much.

What an experience! First time in India.
Vaidyagrama is a sacred place! Sacred with God and Goddesses, doctors, masseurs etc; and this place touches all community by their prayers, smiles, kindness, care and a great knowledge, and presence of the visible and invisible worlds, the nature, the simplicity.
I didn't know that it could happen. I speak a little English only. But I loved massages, silence, calm, birds, vegetarian food, Ayurveda.
I love to meet other persons from the whole world, and it was very interesting!
I learnt that tomorrow is no problem.
I learnt acceptance.
I learnt positivity of mind.
Thank you very much! Best wishes for you!

I am breathing…. Inhale…. 1,2,3,4,5…. Exhale 1,2,3,4,5…
I am deeply grateful. I am awakening to the light of my own true nature. I am growing downwards into my skin and upwards into the light. I imagine each person that comes here has their own unique experience. A microcosm of the Greater Universal life…
It will take me time, quite some time, I imagine, to digest all that has happened for me here.. TRUST, SURRENDER, LET GO, COME HOME. The care, kindness, knowledge and skill, the challenges, joys, realisation of the profound presence and playfulness of my therapists.... I will hold you in my heart forever…

Of all your patients, I will probably the only one who decided to come to Vaidyagrama 3 days before I took off, and obviously I had no time to prepare and no time to know what to look for.
I will give 200% marks for the following areas:
* Doctor care and commitment to explain intricate details
* Support staff, cleaning, food, medicine, front office people
(Food was awesome, just a small request if garlic can be avoided.)
* Library
I will make a special mention of a few people - Archana, Biju, Lalu Prasad, Dr Ramadas, Dr Harikumar, Dr Ramanand, Dr Sajna, Dr Arsha.
Last but not least my friend Manu, the little kid chasing cats!
One thing I would recommend a change would be because so many foreigners are coming here I would provide a simple Ipad like device to all patients with following features.
1. Should connect only to IURL so that no surfing is possible.
2. Should be able to enter daily parameters like urine, stool etc.
3. Check in and check out of library
4. Laundry service
5. All slokas
6. Daily calendars and appointment time/ location
7. Contact for doctors
8. Contact for supporting staff.
I feel this will add value and help in scaling up operations the system, once it is integrated with accounting systems, and inventory system can comply with medical record keeping requirement with responsibility based access for 100% security.
I have 25 years’ experience in automating for large companies and will be glad to help you.
Great mission! I will spread this message to my people, and hope to return with my son and my wife in 2018.

I have been in severe chronic pain for years now, and the condition is extremely debilitating it robs you of you; even ability to think rationally to process information to approach life with the essence of acceptance. There have been many times I have contemplated suicide as Western medicine can only go so far.
I am hoping with the treatment I received here, and by sticking to my dinacharya and diet, with seasonal adjustments, that I will eventually be pain-free.
Loving care is what I received here from my medical team headed by Dr Ramadas, and including my therapists Mythili, Shalini as well as Sameena.
I thought the food was good, though I initially did not enjoy the rice gruel Kanji.
Holistic preventive health care what is surely needed in the West.

Yes, we can live and make a better world for all and you are all the living evidence that this is real and possible. It was like I have met a real family here, and will be cherishing my memories of time here. My deep gratitude to the entire medical team who understood me better than I did. I will not forget all you did!
My huge Thanks to all of you involved in making this great moment. I pray for many more blessings upon you with my deep love.

Things happen at the right time, you say. This was a right time for me to stay at Vaidyagrama, and it will for sure change one's life in one or the other way, and I am now leaving this place full of happiness, enthusiasm, peace, and feeling rested.
There are a few places in this world that can give us fresh air amidst the craziness of our modern lifestyles, making us realise what is really important and what is not. Vaidyagrama is one of these places.
Thanks to all of you the Vaidyagrama family for making this happen!
Take care and au revoir!

The therapists and staff are also helpful. Anytime I needed anything they were there with smile. All my treatments were also good. We really enjoyed all Satsangs by Dr.Ramkumar, Dr.Ramadas and Dr. Ramanandan. We learnt a lot from them. This is a very well managed Ayurveda Treatment centre.

I thank Dr. Prathap and Dr. Kalpana who introduced Vaidyagrama for my Ayurveda treatment for holistic health wellness.
My stay for 14 days was very purposeful. I can say that I have undergone physical and psychological metamorphosis. I am carrying full faith in my mind that the treatment given here will trigger proper rejuvenation of my body and enthusiasm with high spirit in the mind.
The stay here in Vaidyagrama was comfortable, with the natural ambience, and a serene atmosphere. I felt safe in the hands of traditional, learned, dedicated, ancient Vedic Ayurveda team of senior scholarly doctors with the highest degree of vidva and rich experience.
All the staff members are well-trained, and they take care of the inmates with lots of care and concern.
My special thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Medical director, who took personal care in making the program for treatment and advising the medication. I have great gratitude to all his team of doctors, therapists and staff in all fields. I thank Ms. Aparna for having coordinated to coin my program and to make it happen.

I hope that you continue to grow as a community, guiding local people to a more sustainable future, while passing down the culture of Ayurvedic medicine in a genuine, authentic manner. Thank you for having me for treatment, though it was only for such a short period of time. It was a great experience getting away from city and being treated in traditional medicine.

Dear Vaidyagrama Kudumba (Family),
Thank you one more time, for making the last three weeks here at Vaidyagrama meaningful. On a physical space, from illness to wellness; on a mental space, by providing a duly healing space; and on a spiritual plane, by learning deeper lessons to come into anxious mind.
I am deeply impressed by the clarity of mind you have as an organisation and individually in each doctor & therapists.
This is my second time here; and on each of these visits I have cherished the calm, the serenity, the chanting (by Dr.Ramadas & Dr.Harikrishnan too), the Satsangs (especially by Dr.Ramkumar), the greenery, the co-existence of all elements of nature, the individual attention of the doctors, the warmth of the therapists, and above all, an opportunity to take learning, surrender, co existence, simplicity to a deeper and more beautiful meaning.
God bless each one of you in your collective vision of serving through a Healing village!

I am a repeat visitor to Vaidyagrama. Over the past few years, Vaidyagrama has truly evolved into a large healing village. They are Staffed with dedicated doctors, who are experienced Ayurveda Practitioners
As always, they have been attentive to my problems and have constantly worked to resolve the same. Besides the doctors, they have sincere and warm therapist and support staff.
I love the personal care and attention they provide to each one of us who come here from far and wide for our treatment. I want to thank all the doctors, therapist and staff for their care and attention to all my needs.
Every time I return to this place, I am so happy to see my other friends who come here for their own treatment. I truly feel that we belong to one big Vaidyagrama family.

Thank you for making my India experiences something extraordinary. I had a fear of India before this, only because of what witnessed on T.V and western news.
My dear friend Jaisri told me I would do well to come, so I came and ignored all trepidations I held. I am so glad. I have grown so much, the staffs at Vaidyagrama is amazing but now I realize there are more people like this in this part of world. I am grateful for this opportunity. I know I am stronger and my CMT is a challenge for everyone, I am not alone.
I will return and continue on this journey of mine.
Dr Harikrishnan you rule!
Dr Kesari, I love you!
Dr Radhika and Dr. Adhulya, you are so sweet!
I will miss you!

My 6 week stay at Vaidyagrama has come to an end. What an amazing experience. I arrived here feeling very heavy in my heart and body and now I feel so much lighter and cleanser. I t was just the reset I needed and I learned so much about how to really create the conditions for health when I return home. So I appreciate vision of this place- the holistic approach, the community outreach, the sensitivity to the environment. And of course there are the amazing staffs.
I felt very care given by the doctors and therapist. Day after day they show up with skill and open hearts a truly remarkable team. Special thanks to Dr. Kesari, Dr Harikrishnan, Dr Mubash, Dr Radhika, Dr Adhulya and Kalpana. Willingness to connect on a humour level.
Also thank you to the office staff who were always lovely, kind and Preeti who is a treasure. I actually had a lot of fun as well as healing (Laughter is a great medicine) and it was wonderful to share music together.
I also met some fantastic people here and got so much from satsang with Dr.Ramkumar.
Thank you
I will be back

It was not an easy decision to come to vaidyagrama although regular visitors for 6 years.
In December 2016 Natacha my wife and I decided to come to vaidyagrama. It has been an exceptional experience to stay.
Exceptional because of the kindness, spirit, helpfulness and all the people. Doctors, staff, therapists
Exceptional because of the medicine and treatment which makes me feel so much better.
Exceptional because of spirituality, oneness and nature and respect for each other.
It was continued me to spend 10 days of relaxation, reflection, contentment, detachment and peace.
May vaidyagrama continue in its philosophy they will lead to further success. We look forward to coming back.
Thank you

Vaidyagrama is an extraordinary vision by a group of doctors who intended to make a difference to people around the globe.
It has certainly made a difference to my life .I have become more aware and mindful of the health and what I eat. The experience has also awakened me spiritually and wanting me to go back to basics and close to nature.
I would like to thank Dr Harikrishnan and his team especially my therapist Vidhya and the entire staff of Vaidyagrama who have been very caring. I enjoyed the Satsangs and prayer by Dr Ramkumar, Dr Ramadas, Dr Ramanandan and my doctor.
All the best in transforming this vision into reality.
God Bless.

The doctors are all cheerful and keep you up beat during all the treatments, day & night.
The admin team were all very helpful, yet light hearted. It’s nice that you do the daily prayers as that adds some spirituality to the place, which aids in the healing process. We will be telling all our friends and family to come here for their well being.

This was my second time here in less than a year. So good to be back in the capable hands of doctors.
The therapist Reshma, Reshma, Praveena was wonderful and took such a good care of me. So fortunate to have witnessed and participate in the sarpa pooja. My favourite time is 6 am and 6 pm prayers and listening to Dr Ramadas melodious voice.
Hope to come back in a year once again. With great gratitude to Dr Ramanandan, Dr Harikumar, Dr. Siva Jyothi, Mubash and all the rest.

Dear Vaidyagrama,
I have had one of the most beautiful experiences coming here. Though it was a big surprise for me, I have found peace coming here and I feel like a new person.
Everything has been great from the ambiance to the doctors and the therapist knew their job very well and the staffs have been so helpful with all my needs.
The only drawback was the food that could have been a little better. And if you could provide a T.V and internet in the room, that would be superb, could have made my stay even more beautiful.
A special mention to Dr. Ramanandan, for being so patience and understanding throughout this journey and making it as much easier with his sense of humour
And my therapist Devaki, who made the effort of coming for me even on her day off, such a kind lady. Actually the whole staffs have been very kind. And not to forget Preeti for taking so much care of my food and also emotionally supporting me ,though my best friends Archana (my soul sister) and Sumer stood by me emotionally. Overall I am extremely happy (credit goes to Archana) to have come here as it has helped me so much.
Thank you

An oasis for body, mind, spirit. From arrival my every need has been taken care of with care, smiles and grace.
Thank you to all the staff who works patiently in service to all of their patients. Biju and Lakshmi in block 8 made me feel completely at home and relaxed in my room and during treatment and I am very careful for that. Dr Harikrishnan inspired absolute confidence in the treatment with his calm manner and assured knowledge of anything I needed to ask. His team of doctors Dr Kesari, Dr.Adhulya, Dr.Radhika were always available for consultations and reads race. Their daily check INS strengthened my commitments and faith to let go and concentrate on my recovery.
The daily Satsangs with Dr Ramkumar and Dr Ramadas were valuable source of laser sharp Ayurveda wisdom! Finally thanks to my fellow patients for their support and good honour throughout this adventure!!

Effacement
Is a golden gun
It was not easy to hold it against my head and fire!
I needed great faith in my master
To suffocate myself
With his holy bag
Full of truth.
I needed great courage
To go out into the dark
Tracking God into the unknown
And not panic or get lost
In all the starling new scents, sounds, sights or lose my temper
Tripping on those scheming
Night and day around me
Effacement is the emerald dagger
You need to plunge
Deep into yourself upon
This divine path to recovery
Upon this path
To God

In this village there is food for mind, body and the soul. The whole environment is very mesmerising especially when I compare it with today’s busy world. In addition to our physical needs spiritual needs are also taken care of.
From doctors to the working level staffs all are extremely polite and caring. Any request you put in is taken care of.
I am looking forward to come here again.

Waking up surrounded by the chirping of the birds, followed by morning programs what a nice and inspiring experience.
We came here exhausted and tired, leaving now rejuvenated, relaxed and with new experience.
Thanks to the caring staffs who was always attentive and hard working with a smile on their faces.
Special thanks to Dr. Ramadas taking always good for us. We like your special humour, voice and dedication.

My husband and I have really enjoyed our stay here. We are very impressed by the constant care provided by the doctors and the prompt service given by the therapists.
I was really impressed when Geetu brought my medicines before the group dinner and just after it.
I am also very thankful that the therapists adjusted my treatment because of my inability to tolerate hunger.
On the whole it was a very pleasant stay. My husband likes this place so much that he wants to bring his students one time here.
I am hoping to comeback in a year or two.

Because of the exceptional organization that the vaidyagrama is, my life has received several benefits.
This model of natural care giving must be replicated throughout the world.

Well, going through cleanse in India has certainly revealed some layers of ‘stuff’ literally, metaphorically! The journey inward towards understanding + knowing I have been given another jumpstart.
Sincere thanks to Dr. Ramadas, I have delighted in your cheeky sense of humour, therapists for your incredibly hard work, diligence.
Dr. Aruna My goodness what a little intellectual and whole hearted powerhouse you are! Thank you for your care, friendship, especially during my moment’s days of particular struggle. An unexpected delight has been the joy in mingling with fellow wayfarers (Patients)
May you all return to a state of harmony, health and peace?
Enormous thank you to Daniela wolf, the bridge, the unifier, the messenger, your work is tremendously important.

Stayed 5 weeks and I have to admit I had first 4 days were very difficult to take especially the confinement.
Therefore I especially thankful to the team of doctors to modify my treatment during the first week
Special thanks to Dr. Ramanandan for his understanding, to Dr. Harikumar to work with me over my difficult issues.
Great thanks to the staff for mainly all the medicines, food, keeping place such nice, friendly and very peaceful. I believe that I got from this place much more than my initial expectation.
Again 70% is done, 30% remain for me to work it out, and for this 70% deep thanks to vaidyagrama

Dear vaidyagrama I am so very grateful for my time at vaidyagrama. It is so inspiring to see a community that lives connected to and honouring to earth and Mother Nature.
It is so beautiful how you consider the surrounding community offering food and healthcare to those in need. It is nice to see nature all around and medicines growing outside my door!
It has also been such a blessing to be around the spiritual aspects of vaidyagrama. I love being able to participate in pooja, satsang and chanting.
The food is incredible!!! I especially love the idly and coconut chutney. I am also grateful for insight of my doctors and how they pushed me to continue treatment even as it got challenging. I truly trust their judgement.
Thank you Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Sivajyothi and Dr. Harikumar who thought me to make the God in me happy.
Thank you so much to Devaki who has been so sensitive and patient with me and provided me such amazing therapies. Thank you for coming in on your day off to take care of me!
I am truly sorry if I was ever too much asking for things. Everyone has been so accommodating with my sensitive’s and needs.
One suggestion I have is that the noise level is loud much of the time. This can be especially challenging because paneha karma makes us so sensitive. I felt that the talking in the patient block was very excessive and it made very difficult to relax especially during treatments.
I felt that it is very important to have silence while in treatment and while resting and this was almost never the ease while I was here. I had to ask for quite many times which made me feel guilty.
I feel like I should not have had to ask at all. I feel it should be the therapist’s responsibility to know to not talking in the blocks and to keep their voices low.
Other than this with the noise level, my stay at vaidyagrama has been really amazing.
I feel like one very blessed and lucky girl to have had the opportunity to receive such a great Panchakarma with such amazing people.
This place is incredible
Happy new years and blessings to you all

The stay this time has been difficult. This is the 3rd time I have been here, many changes had taken place.
With new doctors, new staff a period of uncertainty is inevitable..!
Hope coordination, communication and patient care improve over time to provide the best care for people who come to seek treatment.
As usual, Dr. Harikrishnan, Aparna, Suresh, therapists and the support staff has been great!

Namaskar greetings and gratitude we came to Vaidyagrama for Ayurveda healing and received remarkable rebalancing in body, heart and mind.
The deep and gentle care of everyone allowed for a deep healing. It enhanced our connection to the planet as well as rejuvenating our body and expanding our heart and mind
Seeing everyone working in Vaidyagrama going about peacefully with a warm smile was a wonderful example of how to be.
We are learning after 5 weeks and find this peaceful time enhanced our health but also deepened our bond as a couple.

Thanks to the doctors, therapists, cleaners, admin, cooks, gardeners and all the rest for making this a great stay. I loved the morning and evening prayers and the satsang and also the family of cats (mother and 3 kittens). I hope vaidyagrama adheres to its animal policy of feeding them twice in day and that they live in harmony with patients and staff are able to share the environment.

Thank you again all the doctors Therapist and everyone behind the scenes of therapy and Vaidyagrama although receiving the various forms of therapy may not be an enjoyable experience Vaidyagrama teaches us if we choose to let go of that through this experience and understanding of longer period of rejuvenation is worth waiting for us outside lies a world of instant gratification
If anything can be learned here at vaidyagrama instant gratification is not best for the health and soul and overall well being of body mind and spirit

I lost weight, feel lighter, more flexible, less agitated, calmer, clearer and much happier. I made many friends and enjoyed every day. I even gave satsang and taught 2 clients and am staff member meditation. I snuck out a few times to watch the sunset through the palm trees as well.
I will surely recommend vaidyagrama to friends and students. The doctors and staff are extraordinary and kind.
Thank you for everything

Is there Ayurveda here at vaidyagrama?
Yes, authentic Ayurveda is living here!
The doctors, the team of therapists, the people who are in the administration and people who work in the kitchen, those who work in the garden area integrated with the blocks of buildings (or may I call humble aboard of life) are all full of life. The ambience in each block is a manifestation of nature or “prakruti”
Doctors and the people are all spiritual in terms of their service to each of the patients here. Doctors not only give treatment but give the most vital part of treatment – the knowledge and wisdom of Ayurveda life style.
The truth is a day in vaidyagrama is a day of living life in harmony believes in it!! Because it is the truth!!
Your “doshas” are not only balanced but your mind is also calm, tranquil and balance.
Carry on this balance in body and mind and it is easier to live a life as you are now a ‘balanced’!
“Vaidyagrama – “g” stands for “green”, while ‘rama’ stands for all the doctors Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikrishnan, and Dr. Ramkumar who all are “Ramas” Hari is an avatar of Rama!
Thanks very much for such an effortlessly easy treatment but effective for all days to come!
Our special thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Krishnadas, Dr. Aruna and Dr. Arsha, who are born-healers.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to experience authentic Ayurveda treatment at vaidyagrama. At first Austere and a bit unsettling.
My week transformed into a beautiful rhythm of prayer nourishment, treatment and reflection. I feel as if I have only dipped my toe into the ocean of Ayurveda knowledge. Should the universe unfold for me as I wish I will return for a full 4 week experience many blessings to the all doctors and staff love and light?

Hello my journey to Vaidyagrama was though a tour group called beane India we spent two weeks travelling many cities and sites of India, seeing temples forts and of course tasting the food. At the end we some of us opted for this healing site. She is unusual rustic and somewhat primitive. Beautiful grounds as well as loving and caring staff. Many of the principles of Ayurveda are timeless. I take what works for me prayer chanting simple but healthy meals yoga mudra as well as satsang are all beneficial loved the treatments

Every aspect of my stay and treatment here at vaidyagrama exceeded expectations, from the quiet, peaceful grands, wonderful villa rooms, great food but most of all the warm, caring staff and doctors.
I felt thoroughly supported throughout my Panchakarma journey and really feel it will provide a solid foundation for me rest of my life regarding my physical and mental health.
Because of the high standards and good reputation here the other guests I found were wonderful, fun, supportive and caring of each other because of the harmonious atmosphere.
Thanks especially to Dr. Ramadas, jayasree, Drs. Aruna and Krishnadas.
Vaidyagrama is an oasis of healing and wish you many blessings for the vital work you all do!

After much research and enquiry I choose vaidyagrama for Ayurveda treatment. During my 3 weeks stay here what I experienced is beyond my expectations.
It is intact a spiritual retreat where body, mind, intellect and soul are nurtured with great care. The day starts and ends with prayer sessions which makes the mind peaceful and give it strength to surrender to higher power. The doctor explains the treatment so well that I felt a confident that Ayurveda is very scientific and Authentic and it would work for me.
The therapists are very professional and friendly.
Satsangs are the highlights of the day where we learn about healthy living, basics of Ayurveda and spiritual insights of this sequence. The depth of knowledge the doctors have is amazing and admirable.
I am especially impressed by the community service projects undertaken by Geetha, her dedication to vaidyagrama and her selfless service are very inspiring.
I am very grateful for this opportunity to experience Ayurveda at vaidyagrama

What a team of healers you have here at vaidyagrama. My time here has gone by so fast. I have never had this amongst of attention given to me concerning my health ever in my life. I arrived with the group 11 of us in all.

I am so happy to have decided to stay with you for 3 wonderful weeks. The place is so peaceful even scared so that I was able to hear in a short time
The staffs are so helpful and lovely for sure I will recommend Vaidyagrama to others. It is so beneficial to stay with you.

I came here with a friend, with her friends’ recommendation. I did not much about vaidyagrama then. Now I know this is the place for treatments, any kind of healing and spiritual well being.
Regarding my treatment I got better.
The care given to me by doctors and the staff is excellent. I am very much impressed and touched by their care.
Satsangs with doctors was another level of educational experience for me. They have given so much information about Ayurveda and spiritual life along with heartfelt encouragement. I felt like that I have been blessed to be here.
I wish all the best to vaidyagrama and Punarnava trust projects with best regards

Namaskaram and Pranamams to the great Vaidyagrama of felicity
Although I am quite familiar with Ayurveda and its proven benefits on me time and again decided to visit this great facility this time.
I am very happy I did the Ambience and tranquillity officer healing atmosphere to the most needed treatment.
A very thankful to Dr Ramanandan, Dr Harikumar, Dr Siva jyothi who are so patient in listening to me although many times I keep asking the same question over and over again. Dr. Ramanandan kept assuring me that I am on the right path when you are uncertain of the path.
The therapist Reshma and Devaki were very nice and helpful, tried to relieve me of my pain and aches by constant comfort of massages. Thank you both very much.
Great thanks to the kitchen staff, who provided the nourishment with their meal preparation, which helps in comforting and nourishing.
Thanks to housekeeping Especially Deepa who helps to keep the place always clean over all the experience was staying with an extended family.
Important just a quick feedback on my thoughts for improvement.
Hope the pharmacy for kashayam distribution and Therapist are kept separate. As many times the mixed duties seem to take a toll on the Therapist.
Also if a cart can be used to bring the hot cases instead of carrying them one by one will save a lot of time.
Sincere thanks

After a world trip 1 time out in 2010/11 which took me to Ayurveda in India as a first stop, the topic + the art of living has never left me since then. Life has been a rocky road for some years now and major personal decisions are to unfold just now. So it is just been logic for me to seek this place after one intense business week in India as well as far moil business and private wise for last 6 months. Vaidyagrama with its heartful and dedicated doctors, therapists has proven once more that Ayurveda has got something very special to it to really help you on your personal way for body, mind and spirit.
For me it gave me the rest desperately needed, the hints on how to take care and really pay attention on body’s needs as well as on the minds focus and o the possibilities for the new direction my life will be going to.
I leave with an inner smile reassured about the path started in 2010.
Thank you from my heart.

My experiences at vaidyagrama have changed the way I believe in living my life. The doctors, treatments and natural environment have a way of instilling peace into mind body, but I have a real tense that the whole-itic healing that takes place here operates on an even deeper level that of the soul.
I have been surprised at the extent to which I have benefited them from my short time here and very much moved by the soul to soul connections with other patients and staff that seem to form so naturally at vaidyagrama.
Another gift of this place is that it has strengthened my passion for healing. Awakened my inner healer. I am so grateful for the opportunity to have learnt (and continue to ...)
Learn more about the fascinating science that is Ayurveda directly from those who embody this wisdom. I will visit this place many times again in body and heart.
Many thanks

Vaidyagrama has the ability to discipline lives in the most positive way. Our heartfelt gratitude for Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Ramkumar for always patiently listening and for their best medical advice and treatment. They definitely have a positive impact on all their patients.
Thank you Vaidyagrama I looking forward to visiting again soon.

First of all, I have to thank Dr Suresh (Sidha) Dr Shivadas (Ayurveda), Dr Omprakash (Ayurveda) for their guidance to Vaidyagrama in a chain reaction. I would like to thank all the staffs for their efforts, dedication and sincerity. I like the ambience of prayer hall here.
But I didn’t like the food, even though it is good for health. Some improvements have to be done to the food substances. After coming here only I had some knowledge about Ayurveda. I will share about my experiences in Vaidyagrama to my patients and my professional colleagues. Now my husband and I are feeling better physically and mentally.
See you all!

We are so happy we came to Vaidyagrama on recommendation of our yoga teacher, Sudhir Rishi. After years of problems with our bowels now we know that we can live without this problem. Such a relief!
Words can’t express how grateful we are to all doctors, therapist, cleaners and other staff who took so good care of us and helped us to overcome our health problems.
We always believed in Ayurveda and it only becomes stronger after coming to Vaidyagrama. We also believe that we are ready for the next step. An Ayurveda lifestyle with the food of our tasteful choices is the challenge we go for.

Before coming here I was in a dilemma that whether I would get a solution for my problem or not but after coming here I slowly realised that it is a place where I could get all the solution for my health related problems. The doctors and therapists over here are kind hearted, dedicated, friendly. Special thanks to Dr Ramanandan and Dr Mubash for their consultation and treatment guidance

Having been in contact with Vaidyagrama for a few years this was to be a visit perhaps to meet old friends you have never met.
And that is exactly what it felt like coming home. I thank the wonderful doctors, staff and friends for a very deep and nourishing experience.
And I look forward to future longer stay.
There is certainly a healing magic in this place. It arises from the work of a community dedicated to creating a harmonious oasis for all who come they seem to have the wisdom and patience that comes only from those to who have experienced healing themselves.
May blessings to vaidyagrama and May it continue to be a safe haven for those seeking some despite from the maddening world around.

Travelling to India is one of my real versions. Since 15 years I dreamed of a Panchakarma treatment in India. Now I here realized this dream here in vaidyagrama, this authentic, Indian, professional and strict Ayurveda healing village.
Thank you for the excellent medical staff. Special thank to medical fellow Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Sivajyothi, Dr. Rekha, Dr. Harikumar and to praveena my main therapist.
It is an amazing place and experience to be here per 4 weeks.
Beautiful trees and water lilies, Birds singing
Sensitivity to the environment and caring for the people in the surrounding villages.
Inspiring Satsangs by the founder Dr. Ramkumar and wonderful practical skills by Dr. Ramadas
Interesting and understanding other patients especially the swami and the Indians were good.
Thanks to the entire Vaidyagrama team and organization.
I am motivated to continue this Ayurveda and spiritual journey and look forward to returning

I go back with a clear and confident mind a light and properly detoxed, body and a soul filled with love gratitude and equanimity.

My journey to Vaidyagrama has been a huge gift of grace that has flurried through many channels. As divorced women trying to follow an Ayurveda diet for many years I have felt chained to the kitchen. Here having all my meals served to me ,having my laundry and housekeeping and having such amazing body treatment has allowed me to relax body mind and spirit at a deep level that has been life changing. In subtle ways I used to think that I had to do things to make ever thing turn out right. My time here has shown me a different dynamic. As I move from the state of doing to being, perfection unfolds delightful before my eyes. I am aware of the power of Dr.Ramkumar intention for us to move into the space of being while we are here and I am deeply grateful.
I have recognized the constant tendency to compare myself with others against a subtle background and judgement and competition. This has given way to an appreciation of me as I am and others as they are and to enjoy our connection. Many thanks and much love for all those who make this a truly healing village.

For me being here has been a great true gift in many ways.
Doctors have been great; the idea of the healing village is beautiful, with all this nature silence & care around us. The food & room has been very good and the outcome of the treatment looks in a good direction too.
I love Ayurveda and its holistic approach to health and I think Vaidyagrama is able to transmit that ancient wisdom.
Two suggestions for improvement:
Empower the therapists more, making them feel more part of Vaidyagrama through circles and non formal attention and recognition. Also English lessons.
Implement some kind of prize system and approach that allows more Indian people to come (this is expensive for average Indian people) & also for people like volunteers or social servants. It was so lovely to come & I hope I can return.
Love you! Thank you for your amazing service.

This is a poem that I wrote during the course of my stay here. It is about the personal transformation I experienced.
The land of bland
I have journeyed from the hand of spice
To the land of bland
It was a wilful choice.
Initiated by my own hand.
The land of spice is a stimulating place
Full of beauty and sensual pleasure
In coming here I have been confronted by
Restlessness, boredom and too much leisure
There I resided in a tropical paradise
Of backwater greenery and ocean scenery
Where I find myself permanently affirmed
To sell a block six.
There no matter what I wished
It was granted by the amazing Ranji
Here it seems no matter what I want
I just always get Kanji
In the land of spice
Each day was a delight of multiple choices
Here I have plagued by
Discontented inner voices
But at some point, I’m not sure when or how
I passed through the looking glass of duality
And slipped down the rabbit hole
Coming out in a different reality
It’s an alternate universe
And a land of paradox
Where what once was truth
Has now become the reverse
The constant craving for stimulation
Has given way to contemplation
The overall sensory deprivation
Has fastened a sense of liberation
My mental and physical restlessness
Has been replaced by growing mindfulness
Constant activity is no longer my holy cow
Giving way to just beings
And my outwards journey of exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive at where we started
And knows that place for first time
Which brings me to my last rhyme?
Whereas the land of spice is really quite nice
The land of Bland as May bien!!

Vaidyagrama is a home away from home which seems to be the consensus among patients. This is all due to the dedication, care, love and concern of all the doctors and the staff here special thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Aruna, Dr. Mubash and Dr.Sivajyothi for humouring me during my 5 days of eye treatment. I would have never survived it otherwise.
My sincere thanks and appreciation as always

It has been an incredible first experience and well worth the three weeks of treatment the difficult part now is to maintain when I go home. I met some wonderful people and made good friends who came from many parts of the world.
All the staffs are very dedicated, hard working and always smiling. I also got some advice from Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Krishnadas, Dr. Ramkumar and Dr.Arsha.
Ms. Aparna was extremely helpful in providing all the information
Thank you all

I have met wonderful people here, patients and staff who I will remember always with a smile on my face.
I was here for two weeks only and I think it has given me plenty to think about. A real education in every sense of the word.

Thank you to our doctors ,Dr.Kesari and Dr .Harikrishnan our therapists and the ladies who took care of our room and the kitchen team. This place is very well thought and provides real Ayurveda and for sure can grow with more potential with organizations and good communication.

To the staff of Vaidyagrama
After a fine night of dining,
A priest, a rabbi, and an Ayurveda doctor walk into a bar for a drink.
The priest sidles up to the bar and asks,
“May I have a glass of holy water on the rocks”?
The bartender replies “of course”
The rabbi states,” I am feeling nostalgic, I had like a cup of red wine from Jerusalem, 1999”
“Excellent choice” Exclaims the bartender
The doctor looks the bartender straight in the eye and declares, “No holy water or red wine for me, bring me a bottle of your finest medicine water steaming hot and...
I had like a basti to go!

I came here with my husband. The plan was that he would do the treatment while I just hung around and relaxed. In my mind, I felt we had already spent a lot of money our first couple months travelling and felt like the world benefit more from the treatments. That all changed the first hour after arriving here. How could I not take advantage of this opportunity! I knew right away that this would be a great investment into my own health and well being.
Where do I start? The doctors are all caring, dedicated and have a great sense of humour. (Dr Ramanandan always gave us something to laugh about.) The Ayurveda doctors are kind and good at what they do!! Great cooks, the cleaning staffs, maintenance and administrative staff, the gardeners that had a sweet smile and even that sweet gentleman that goes around every evening turning off the lights, all so pleasant and helpful. Also the environmental consciousness, creating comfortable, peaceful spaces and the way they integrate and care for the surrounding communities goes above and beyond when we make back to India, Vaidyagrama will be our must do list.
Many thanks

What a big experience sometimes it was marvellous sometimes it was so difficult.
At the beginning I didn’t know what the treatments were used for and why the food was ugly.
Because of my friend Annick and a lot of satsang I understood the importance of treatments, food and peace.
And not only my body but my mind become well.
Thank you very much to the doctors for their competence and kindness for all the staff who always smile and a special thanks to Shiny for being so attentive and gentle.
Many thanks to Dr. Ramadas

Thank you Geetha for introducing me to Vaidyagrama. I had a great time, met some interesting patients and had the loving care of the staff. Thank you doctors – introspective and caring Dr.Harikrishnan, very funny and sensitive Dr.Kesari and the beautiful and capable Dr.Athulya and Dr.Radhika. I appreciated the effort of my therapists - Lakshmi, Kalpana and Nimmy, very sincere and hard working. I go lighter in weight and heart. I needed the solitude, the company of fellow patients & the understanding of the staff.
I am grateful to have got back my reading habits which I had lost for the past 20 years.
I hope to see you all soon

Every day at Vaidyagrama is the invitation and opportunity to be present with it all. Outside the walls, several crows call out to each other, alternating as they fly. Their voices trailing off into the distance. The moo of the milking cows. Small birds with high pitched chirps fill the rows of trees that share the space between my back and the one adjacent. The cooing of the morning dove, a utensil on a pot of creating a ringing sound as though emitted from a singing bowl. The engine of a motorcycle tracing the line of dirt path somewhere outside. An entire chorus of singing birds pass overhead whistling, calling, anticipated of the prayer of a new day. A mop is propped up in a thin tree, its red handle bright against the bark. A child runs by, the one who doesn’t speak, but he squeals with delight in a game of his own, enjoying and being present to this morning of which I often taken for granted back home. His mother follows, then his father, their morning tea in hand, keeping a watchful loving eye of their gift. Further in the background the sweet sound of Malayalam, clanging metal pots-the staff and therapist preparing for a new day of treatments of healing-and the anticipation of self love. How many days of my life I have separated myself from such rich moments-either with distraction of activities and self importance or a mind fragmented in a hustle and bustle of thoughts worry judgment analysis-whatever you wish to call it. That field of separation that keeps me –us –wholly and utterly disengaged with oblique from the joy of life. The child is now beating drum in the mandapam, the beats quickening, growing louder, wider, his voice rising to meet the reverberation his expression one of innocence’s Freedom. This experience –all 5 senses - open to receive to interact with life, people, nature-myself on a deeper ,more authentic level is why I returned to Vaidyagrama - the health issues having been an outward symptoms of a life that had tipped out of balance. As I prepare in this last few hours for my departure it is with great gratitude and appreciation to everyone at Vaidyagrama who demonstrate at each and every moment - how to live authentically how to care for other, how to make work a worship. Thank you Dr.Ramkumar for your vision and inspiration of a better world: a loving integrated healing world. Thank you Dr Harikrishnan for your wise and compassionate care. Thank you Dr. Kesari for your warmth and congenial nature and for our discussion ranging from literature to Vedic chanting- including the mantras you so generously shared.
Thank you Dr.Ramadas for your light hearted and sincere spirit and prayers. Two doctors Athulya and Radhika - caring, intelligent and beautiful inside and out. I appreciate the nurturing heart and hands of lakshmi and her assistants mridula and abhila And all the staff-housekeeping, those in the kitchen who nourish our bellies, the ladies and men who tend to the plants and herbs, the internet, laundry, the front desk - all those behind the scenes rolls that are as equally important and necessary and appreciated for such a model of sustainability and healing.
Thank you Geetha for your enthusiasm and selfless service and much gratitude to Aparna for being a Conduit and channel of communication organization and support leading up to and throughout the process. It gives me satisfaction to witness just how much Vaidyagrama has grown since I first visited Vaidyagrama 5 years ago. And how it continuous to expand and touch so many times those who travel from a far those who live in local village.

A very calm and peaceful place I wish, I could come more often and spend time introspect or just spend my time here. Each time I have been here, I have learned something new about myself and one of the main things I realize is the pull I feel towards my roots getting stronger as I grow older. Now am able to realize that being in the south India makes me feel more fulfilled! Much love to all.

A poem, for dear Dr. Ramadas
The storm
You think that winters ending
The ice is melting fast
The frosty feeling sober
This morning chill won’t last
But air keeps getting colder
You blink away the bite
When a blizzard knocks you over
You’re blinded by the white
The body must surrender
To the glowing mass
Of swirling snowflakes blurring
The present with the past
In that minute moment
When numbness overtakes
The urge of ever-knowing
The ice begins to break
Somersaulting winds
Encapsulate the strife
The storm was greatness heaving
Your being into life.
Thanks to all at
Vaidyagrama for
A Wonderful stay

Vaidyagrama is a serene and wonderful place to recuperate relax and be in touch with your inner self. The doctors, the therapists and all support staff at Vaidyagrama make one feel at home and motivate, guide and inspire in many ways. My story at Vaidyagrama was outstanding and I enjoyed every bit. In our busy schedule we often don’t have time or inclination to get in touch with inner self.
I thank Dr. Harikrishnan, Dr. Kesari, and Dr. Radhika, Dr. Athulya and all the therapists and support staff for making my stay very memorable

I most appreciated the Vision and grounding foundation of Vaidyagrama to reconnect to the natural way of living in harmony with Mother Nature.
The most inspiring and nourishing part for me was Satsang with Dr Ramkumar. I appreciated his patience and full presence to answer all of our questions, and to offer spiritual and medical guidance and encouragements. I always felt uplifted in his presence. Even though I don’t feel significant changes (or even a slight decrease in my vitality), I am inspired to go back home and continue to live my life in harmony with myself and therefore Nature. I know that everyone’s intentions here were for healing, and I with Vaidyagrama family continue to stay in integrity with your Vision for this community, for the surrounding villages and for the world.
I am also inspired to continue my work at home by bringing natural healing to people and loving energy to the land.
Many blessings from my heart.

Vaidyagrama has been a very good experience. It has healed me in many ways, and has provided me new ways to look at my actions, decisions and experiences going forward.
The doctors are very knowledgeable as can be seen during careful and caring treatment.
The environment is very conducive for healing, and it is pleasant to spend time here, to allow the treatment to work in a natural way.
The fellow residents provided time to each other, and we get to know them; they were genuinely affectionate and good people. It would be wonderful to re-visit, and to recommend such a place to my friends and family.

I had made arrangements for Panchakarma somewhere else in Kerala, but something did not feel right. It was in the middle of a busy town. I decided not to go and got Vaidyagrama number from another place which was full. I was a little homesick, so I thought of dropping it and just head home. But when I got a response from Vaidyagrama it all fell into place. It felt right and I was heading for a treatment which I didn’t know much about. A driver picked me up from the airport and we drove further away from town ending up in a beautiful quite place in Nature. I was greeted by Kanaku, who was friendly and helpful and who has helped me many times after. Big thanks to you Kanaku, for your service and friendliness.
Then treatment started immediately. Wonderful Dr. Ramadas said “we will help you ground and settle.” Being in India already for 5 weeks with extremely poor sleep, after treatment I was put into a state of happiness, contentment and sleepiness. So very fast I could get rested and settle in this wonderful healing village. Then real treatment began with bad tasting medicines, pleasant massages and not so pleasant treatments, which were also necessary for doing the cleansing.
When I came I had a chronic condition lasting for 20 years. Now 1 month later, my condition has completely changed. Only small signs that there is still treatment needed which I will follow-up at home.
I have felt that I have been so well taken care of here. Warm, helpful, diligent women to clean my room, kitchen staff making wonderful food.
Thank you to wonderful therapists giving treatments. They have all been nice, but special thanks to Jayasree and Shyni who have been my main therapists. I would like to bring you home with me! You have been kind, skilful, smiling and wise. Thank you and also big thanks to all the therapists helping me, you are all wonderful!
I want to thank all the doctors. I know all have participated in discussing and helping find good treatment for my disease. So I want to thank you all, also Dr. Ramkumar for wonderful Satsangs. And to the team of doctors who has worked closely with me.
First I got a little confused with many doctors helping me. But seeing and feeling your care and skilfulness I feel very thankful and privileged to have many wonderful doctors around. I’ve never felt in such good doctor-hands.
Thanks to Dr. Ramadas, for your warmth, wisdom, skill, playfulness and integrity. I have felt so safe under your wings. I have enjoyed our consultations, the pujas and Satsangs. I admire how you live and practise Ayurveda.
Thank you Dr. Aruna for your warm heart, humour, sensitivity and wisdom.
Thank you Dr. Arsha for your diligence, your overview of the situation and your ability to see all the details.
Thank you Dr. Krishnadas for your sensitivity and energy.
Thank you Preeti for being so engaged in making the food so tasty. You inspire me to continue Ayurveda cooking.
Thanks to Geetha for your enthusiasm for the Punarnava Trust project.
All the best to all of you. I’m going to miss you, but I look very much forward to going home and I’m planning to come back to this beautiful healing village, which is true Ayurveda.

Thanks a ton for the concern and love from the entire team of doctors, therapists, everyone at vaidyagrama inclusive.
I am humbled by the attention given to me by the therapist and doctors.
I have never been convinced before about Ayurveda treatments. But coming to vaidyagrama has given me immense hope that I can lead a wholesome life again.
Thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Ramkumar, my therapist Shyni, Dr. Aruna for instilling such strong confidence in Ayurveda, which I am sure to follow for years to come.
Special thanks to all the pearls of wisdom of Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Ramkumar during the Satsangs. After this short stay here I am definitely one step closer to being at peace in both mind and body. The amount of dedication brought in by the doctors and especially the therapist has amazed me.

I really felt cared for. If one fights for years an unseen heavy disease 24 hours a day, one truly appreciates just the fact someone comes and wants to fight on your side. What to speak of allies who are also qualified to fight.
My thanks go to all the members of vaidyagrama community, and special thanks to Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Sivajyothi, Dr. Mubash, Sachin, Reshma, Vinod and Sajith who took personal care of me, and kindly and patiently tolerated my misbehaviour.

Hopefully our paths will cross sometime in the future. You will be always welcome in Canada.
I am going to miss the treatments and lovely staff that took good care of me here. Everyone was so accommodating of my needs and I will never forget the extra steps you guys took to make me feel comfortable.

I am beyond grateful for this amazing and very much rewarding experience that I have gained during my 3 week stay at vaidyagrama. 3 weeks ago I came here as a very anxious and impatient human being whom I didn’t like myself. From day one I have been surrounded by lovely, kind and very accommodating staff. This helped me transform into a much more patient and accepting person more over. I have found my balance here (even though my Pitta is still a bit higher that it should be)
Special thanks to our absolute and favorite Dr. Mubash. My sis and I will truly miss you a lot, but we hope to see you shortly when you come visit us in cold Canada.
The ladies that did my treatment are very nice and lovely! I really enjoyed their company and treatments.
Food could have been better while on Ghee (ha ha, more beetroot soup next time, please) Great experience overall and I will recommend vaidyagrama to everyone I know.

I am happy and positive about my stay and would not hesitate to recommend vaidyagrama to friends and family back home.

From the minute I arrived in beautiful Vaidyagrama, I felt super welcomed and enjoyed every moment of my 3 weeks a lot. (Except the last cup of ghee). Thank you all for taking such good care of me and for making my stay unforgettable.
I loved the amazing food, the great treatments with so many lovely people, all the Satsangs and those impressive prayers. Thank you also for the delicious community dinner, and of course the daily doctor’s consultations in which I always felt in professional hands.
I will especially miss the beautiful surrounding of the Nature. I think I have never heard any noise of cars for such a long time in my life. I am very grateful that I could stay with you and wish you all the best for the future.

What an experience! It was totally accidental that I turned up at vaidyagrama and my trip was just out of curiosity. Had severe stiff neck and shoulder issue and was looking for a solution. What I got was mental solution. The whole environment is peaceful and serene. My Dr. Ramanandan was great and so was Dr.Rekha. The entire staff is very friendly and always helpful.
The food was perfect, didn’t miss my tea and coffee. The morning and evening pooja is only of the hidden secret here, and was totally rejuvenating.
Will be back!

How to put it in words…..
What an outstanding place, stay and journey it has been.
I felt engulfed in a cocoon of love and care from the moment I arrived… from the staff always smiling and ready to help us anytime, to the dedicated doctors ever present, kind and compassionate providing healing, not for the disease but the entire person’s body, mind and soul. It is due to these daily interactions and Satsangs that I became mad about Ayurveda life and I got inspired to continue on the path.
Thank you to everyone here at Vaidyagrama is deeply grateful for all the love and care you provided to me.

Vaidyagrama is a very good place for healing. I along with my wife Mrs. Shakunthala Prasad came here for the 4th time. My Dr.Harikrishnan has done miracles here. Dr Kesari and other staff are very caring and affectionate. Food is very good. The holistic environment is excellent .My treatment is still on and I have decided to come to Vaidyagrama again in the month of October 2017. Satsangs by Dr Ramkumar were very inspiring.
Thanks to Vaidyagrama for personal care and attention. Once again a warm thanks to Dr Harikrishnan and every one.

I and my wife came for treatment here on 4th April. We were a little worried about how we are going to finish the 10 days treatment with the new environment and food. Initially we were not able to manage, but after the 2nd and 3rd day passed, we were manageable to accept both.
Today is the 10th day and I am very happy and proud to say that we would like to stay for some more time, if not for my business commitments and our family. Our mind is very fresh rejuvenated, started giving more importance to our health. At this point; we would like to thank Dr.Harikrishnan and his team of doctors for taking care of us individually, thanks to all the therapists who are doing wonderful job. The housekeeping is good.
In the initial days we had problems with food but later we got adjusted and got used to it. Thanks to Preeti for accepting my suggestions. On the whole Vaidyagrama is not only a hospital, but also a spiritual space. Learned lot of things but very difficult to express. We are leaving tomorrow, but we will come next at the earliest.
See you soon.

The two words that come to mind when I think about my stay at vaidyagrama are Quality and Wholesome. Everyone from the doctors, junior doctors, therapists and staff provide the necessary treatments to make your mind, body and soul wholesome again. Many places attempt to achieve this goal, but only few meet it with quality care as a staple. The doctors and staff (everyone included) are extremely attentive and caring. I truly believe that I have learned what the beauty of not just a doctor, but a healing community looks and feels like.
Dr. Ramadas’ approach to healing the body is one that keeps the breadth and depth of life and the humor capacity in mind.
Dr. Aruna’s capabilities as a doctor make me want to come back again.
Dr. Arsha’s caring nature which makes her comes to my room ten times a day when I am not feeling well is a true sign of a healer.
The therapists respond smilingly to every back and call, and the house keeping staff kill as many spiders as you ask them too.
Thank you all for the quality care we received. I am sure I will see wonderful results in the long term.
Sincerely,

I came here with a lot of questions in my mind and a very great hope. I am so happy that I came. After talking to Dr. Ramadas I realized that this is the place where I will be cured.
Thank you very much Dr.Ramadas and his team of doctors and staff members. All are wonderful and caring people. Satsang is a good idea and is very informative.
I am looking forward to visit vaidyagrama again with my husband.
Thank you all and very grateful

Vaidyagrama is not just healing the health issues. It also heals the mind and soul in a peaceful atmosphere. It is a pleasant stay for me. I had lost my hope before I came here. I gained my life back in Vaidyagrama. The doctors, therapists and all other staff are very polite; and it is a real blessing to open our problems. Vaidyagrama is not only rejuvenating the body but also the soul. The stay here has given me a complete satisfaction in between the machinery routine life.
Thanks to all the staff who are working here to heal our problems.

By the grace of God and Guru.
I am very glad and blessed to be here in vaidyagrama. It is such a wonderful place where can get physical, mental, intellectual as well as spiritual support. We can learn here how to live and lead the Divine life, which is very essential in our human life. During my stay (from 03/03 to 06/04)
I learned a lot about Ayurveda, how to take care of my body, daily prayers, chanting, worship, cooking class, and had the company of good peoples. The helpful doctors, therapists, all the staff the wonderful advisors, different types of treatments, very clean room, greenery, good air - all inspired and lifted me to develop my confidence, will power, good health, especially in satsang with Dr. Ramkumar - it is a very valuable time in my life.
I am very thankful, and grateful to this family, who offered Ayurveda care here at the homely vaidyagrama.
I pray and invoke the Almighty Lord, all the saints and sages for them to shower their grace be upon the vaidyagrama all staff well-wishers, who are physically, mentally and financially supporting for its future.
May God bless all with good health long life, peaceful, prosperity, happiness and all auspiciousness and my prayers.
With earnest regards.

My first visit to vaidyagrama and it seems to be the beginning of a long, enriching association! The very first view of vaidyagrama took my breath away - was it possible that such a place actually exists!
As the days unfolded, it seemed that petals of the violet lotus were as beautifully crafted and bloomed as did the amazing team of doctors, therapists, support staff and everyone else who is part of the vaidyagrama family from the dry wit and discernment of Dr. Ramanandan, who patiently allowed me time and space to ingest 150 ml of ghee, to the sweet melodious voice of Dr.Harikumar whose wisdom and Bhakthi was inspiring; Dr.Mubash’s attention to detail, picking up on subtle nuances of energy and mood changes; to my therapists the amazing Devaki in whose hands I felt safe and loved, the effervescent ever giggling Maheshwari whose smile was the best ray of sunshine to wake you up with kashayam; Geetu and Reshma are efficient and polite.
Preeti - a complete surprise to have a Haryanvi Jat girl so transformed by the vaidyagrama ethos, whipping up delicious south Indian fare with consummate ease.. Bright and chirpy Aparna, the mover and shaker Geetha, and all the other medical directors whom I prayed with in the morning and attended the Satsangs with Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Harikrishnan and Dr. Kesari.
You have together woven a web of love, warmth in which each patient feels safe and protected, so much so that the thought of stepping back into the world seems a scary thought.
I had the privilege of speaking with Dr. Ramkumar and receiving his Vision, expanding beyond vaidyagrama to balagrama, the senior citizen project, the green school etc; and I am super excited and charged because I too want to belong to this community.
Thank you all. Love,

Namaste!
I am not sure if it is the love of doctor and staffs that has been healing me or the medication and treatments; perhaps the whole holistic approach.
Thank you Dr. Ramadas and other doctors. Thank you Shiny my therapist - your love, care and kindness are beyond words and that is very healing to me. I felt taken cared for and pampered.
I hope to see you all next year!

I discovered Vaidyagrama by gut, googling the internet. In a way I flowed. This space has something special, it slowly reels you in, giving you time, drawing you into a tight hug that you just don’t want to leave. It allows you to find your space, a bit like a womb. I found the conversations with Dr.Ramkumar and with other patients, (we by the way, the most interesting mix of people I have met in a long time), resonating with my inner struggle. The internal medicines and the external Satsangs, poojas , conversations, set afire synaptic connections that make one come alive.
Thank you, Dr.Harikrishnan and Dr.Kesari for keeping an eye for me. Therapists Biju, Arun and Yadu have been great.
You all have a great space here. I wish the community grows larger and the dreams of the founders come alive.
Thank you for the healing! Lastly I thank the Creator for bringing me here, the medications, the food, the rest, the care.
God bless you all, the earth the universe. Om shanthi

Being at vaidyagrama has been such a learning experience. When you are always busy in your normal life, it is a total shock when you can do nothing but take rest. I went through a week of torment before my mind finally relaxed a little. I could have actually used a full month to let go more. I am so grateful to all the therapists and the doctors, the heat and boredom. I am clearer, happier and healthier for this experience.
Thank you

Stay at Vaidyagrama was giving a feeling of lifestyle in ancient India - “Pure. Natural. Pious.” It was an experience of understanding Annamaya Deha, an experience, which took beyond physical boundary. My sincere Pranams to all Vaidyas and helpers of whole treatment... Of course, including the office staff. I will keep up the medication and style of life with a principle of Ayurveda.

We have had a lovely stay at vaidyagrama. The aesthetics is so compelling. The central tree in our block bathed in light, is a photo shared with all our friends.
It’s amazing that a once-barren plot of land is now beautiful with flowers and pretty birds.
We have loved the food. Cannot understand how we managed to lose some weight.
Above all, everyone has been friendly and helpful, and taken great care of every aspect.
Dr.Ramkumar’s satsangs were thought-provoking and enjoyable. Vaidyagrama is an embodiment of ancient indigenous knowledge revived in a great organization.
CEOs can learn from the open discussion at the satsang!
We also appreciate Punarnava Ayurveda/ vaidyagrama efforts on working closely with the village, and in particular, Balagrama.
Thank you
All the best!

My joint pain made me come to Vaidyagrama as a first priority.
The moment I entered the gate, I felt the difference. The natural healing place with plenty of trees around, birds chirping, peacock wandering! It is amazing... a true healing village.
Doctors, therapists, staff are wonderful. My therapist Shiny was very supportive. In her lean body, she has so much power. Aparna made it like a home even before reaching here. I had the best day with her going around.
Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Harikumar are so knowledgeable that with their treatment plan, my pain level already went down to 40%.
I felt not only healed physically, but also at the emotional and spiritual level.
I wish Dr. Ramkumar and his whole team, the very best for their wonderful work.

I am sad to be leaving, and find myself becoming increasingly irritable over little things.
Yesterday I walked around the grounds after lunch, letting my eyes sink deeply into the lush vegetation in which so many animals have made a contented home, and noticing here and there, the housekeeping staff quietly going about their business tending to the plants and trees. It was such a peaceful, restful, harmonious scene; I felt a terrible pang at the thought I will have to leave it so soon. I will miss sitting on my veranda listening to the birds’ songs very much.
Thank you to all the doctors and staff for taking such good care of me, and my heartfelt apologies for all the times I have failed to appreciate it as much as I should. I hope to do a better job of continuing your good work back home. I hope I am fortunate to be able to keep coming back here.

The hospital takes initiative to keep the boredom away with some activities. It is a novel experiment and practice. Yet the Institution could be done more professionally. I wish the experiment all the success and may God bless all the staff.

It had been really a pleasure for me to stay here in Vaidyagrama for my treatment for psoriasis. The hospital atmosphere is quite different from others, and I felt I was in a world of love and affection. The doctors have been extremely good, in fact, no words to explain. The staff, therapists and all others have been behaving very well with me. I pray to God that the Punarnava organization should grow well to reach the heights of Himalayas.

Vaidyagrama has been a perfect “reset” for me in the midst of travelling for a year to write a book. It was no joke to stop all the doing, but every moment was precious. What a beautiful place to come back into your heart and take up residence again.
I only stayed 2 weeks that is what had planned and, but now I know and wish I could stay a full month. Next time for sure. There will definitely be a next time.
I felt layers of physical toxins, but also mental, emotional, spiritual toxins being stripped away, and as of the day of my departure, I am feeling a little raw, but excited to get to continue my work from a more peaceful and aligned place in my heart and soul.
Thank you, doctors, staff and all the birds for this healing experience!

Dear Vaidyagrama,
This is the second time I am visiting you. It is always such a pleasure to be here. I have no second thoughts when I want to take up treatment here. The positive energy across the campus is more than enough to cure anything. As always, the stay has been pleasant. The stay here always opens up to a fresh restart to the mind and body.
I am extremely grateful for the entire staff of Vaidyagrama. Each of you takes care of me with so much warmth and affection. I am truly blessed to have known this place and to take up the treatment. Thank you Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr. Kesari and Dr. Athulya for all the patience you had to listen and understand my concerns and treating it in the best way possible. Thanks to my therapists Biju, Arun, Vinod and Lalu. If not for these Doctors and therapists, I wouldn’t have had such a smooth healing experience. I also take this opportunity to appreciate the efforts taken by Aparna and Geetha for coordinating the stay and managing other activities.
Thank you all again! Hope to be here soon.

Thank you all for your care and support. Staying at Vaidyagrama has not been easy for me- the heat, the dryness have especially been challenging. I came with a lot of ideas and expectations about my research and only slowly as those fell away, was I able to settle in to what this place offers more fully of the body, mind, spirit, cleansing my mind has also been the most difficult – but not just the beauty of the landscape, but how intricate and alive it is, the stillness, the insights from the Satsangs have all been profound – and along with the skill and care of the doctors and therapists, I leave here so much more centered and grounded, and with more clarity about what matters.
Thank you all for everything!

Vaidyagrama.... I was not sure what to expect when I arrived. After going through severe pain for 7 months I was a bit apprehensive. During the treatment, there were ups and downs, but Dr. Ramadas and his team provided me the utmost care. Vaidyagrama is a beautiful and peaceful place. Doctors and therapists were caring, and I thank them for the honest advice and genuine care. Housekeeping staff and kitchen staff were excellent. Many thanks to kitchen staff for accommodating my dietary requirements.
Bindu, Archana, Shiny and Shiny mol, thank you loads for your patience and care. I enjoyed our chit chats and giggles.
Aparna, such a sweet and friendly person to talk to.
The reception ladies Kanagu, Bindu, and Shilji, I felt you guys are positive energy for me. When I feel down, all I have to do is come down to reception and I can feel the change in me. It felt as if I was with my friends. Thank you heaps for the love and care. I thoroughly enjoyed our chats and laughs.
Dr. Ramadas, I have no words to express my gratitude to you and the team of Doctors. Thank you, doctor, for all your support and encouragement. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation about various topics. I will never forget our "Sidhan" in this life.
Many thanks, to Dr. Ramanandan for his support and guidance.
Dr. Ramadas, you have an excellent team here! You and your team went above and beyond to make my stay here comfortable.
With all my heart I thank you guys.

Dr. Ramadas is full of energy and he transferred that energy in me too. Although there is no significant improvement in my condition yet, I enjoyed staying at Vaidyagrama.
All staff is so supportive and smiling. It is indeed a lifetime experience staying in Vaidyagrama.

On my 21st day today, when I look back and think how did it go?, I have so many positives to savour.
As an airline pilot for last 10 years, I was having trouble with my sleep patterns, gas, acidity, indigestion, higher than usual heart rate (90-95) and developed psoriatic patches on my scalp too. Basically, my mind and body started getting messed up. After having enough of allopathic experiments I decided to go the (good old Indian) Ayurveda way and that is how Vaidyagrama happened. I came here to completely surrender with nothing to lose. And it's just unbelievable how much I have gained here.
Under Dr. Ramadas’ observation and care I felt healed from day 1. He is not only an amazing doctor, but also a great soul. The daily pujas and Satsangs became a way of living and the other people I met along the treatment became friends and family at Vaidyagrama.
Dr. Ramkumar has this vast knowledge which is not confined to Ayurveda, but anything and everything about Life. These are the two people I will remember forever. Thanks to all of the housekeeping staff and kitchen people for taking such good care.
Thanks to Aparna and Geetha, Jayshree, and Shiny, Iliyas and Lalu; Preeti for the best food. I can't thank the doctors enough.
P.S. There is a significant improvement in my mental and physical well-being reduction in psoriatic patches/ good sleep/ energy level / All good. Thanks

This is my second experience of stay at Vaidyagrama. I enjoyed my stay here. It is a very calm place, with great healers Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Aruna. The therapists are wonderful; they understand my pain and they tried all possible ways to heal me. I had a wonderful learning experience during Satsangs with many doctors who are knowledgeable. I like the traditional way of starting the day with a prayer and ending with a prayer, which adds meaning to our life.
Thank you for the ladies who helped to clean the room.
Thank you.

Doctors and Family of Vaidyagrama,
We had an excellent treatment in this authentic Ayurveda centre. The entire set up and atmosphere is conducive to Ayurveda healing.
The morning and evening prayers meditation, Satsangs & talks on Ayurveda gave us a fantastic feeling of peace and a frame of mind for healing the body.
After having tried a few Ayurveda care centres, we have finally found one destination for Ayurveda care and healing.
We have not come across so much dedication; seldom have doctors given a detailed briefing on post-care after discharge from the centre.
Thanks and God bless all of you!

Dear Vaidyagrama family,
The past 2.5 weeks have been wonderful I came here with a back so bad, that I had trouble with simple, basic movements. I am leaving here, virtually pain free.
Aside from the physical aspect, this was a great 2.5 weeks of getting back in touch with myself. Reminding me of the things that are important to me, making me realize how much of our daily lives are spent in responding to stimulus we don’t need.
I hope to take these lessons back with me and lead a healthier and more intentional life.
Thank you to the entire team!

This is my fourth visit to vaidyagrama and it only reinforced my faith in the healing process, it symbolizes for!
I would like to specially thank Dr Harikrishnan whose calm and reassuring demeanour inspires confidence; and his team esp. Dr Athulya, Dr Kesari and Dr Radhika.
Among the therapists, I am lucky to again be in good hands of Lakshmi chechi and a new one Akhila. Their dedication at work as indeed that of all the staff from housekeeping, gardeners, office staff and kitchen is touching. Changes in food measures and preparations were the biggest surprise and of course very welcome ones. Once again, thanks to everyone for making my stay pleasant and helping me heal my body and mind.

I would like to thank all the doctors who took care of me and were so patient with me.
I am Katia, French with 60% Indian blood – hence this stay was mainly to cure myself from a health perspective but it did far more in fact. I renewed my link to India, Indian spirituality, Indian mindset which is very different from western’s .This was a good surprise for me and a wonderful gift that I did not expect when coming here. I met very interesting people here either patients or doctors, and we exchanged a lot about life and how to live it best. After the treatment, I got this strange feeling that I found back my body, which was very positive and also unexpected.
Hence I will never forget about Vaidyagrama and its wonderful team who proves that a different world can exist in harmony with any living being. Now it is time for me to go back to France, and I will for sure do not live the same way – I do not know yet if I will apply all this I learnt here (probably not) but i will try to do my best.
Thanks to all again and hope that Vaidyagrama will live long time!
Love,

I came to Vaidyagrama after having exhausted all other treatment options for a fairly uncommon medical problem. I am really grateful for the care and attention that I received here. These three weeks have taught me to look at healing from a new perspective. Amazing team of doctors and para medical staff!
Beautiful and secure atmosphere that enhances the healing process! I feel much better already, and think I finally see some light at the end of the treatment.
Special and heartfelt thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Aruna, Dr. Anupama and Dr. Arsha.

It has been an inspiring time for me.
The three weeks that I spent here were inspiring to see values, ethos and the Vision of the place, and its spirit reflecting in the actions of every staff member. The love, warmth and nurturing each of them demonstrated significantly contributed to my healing.
All the quiet and tranquillity of the place compelled me into a space of reflection that reminded me of all the things that I ought to be grateful for.
Of course, Dr. Ramadas and all the other doctors and the therapists- The conversations were full of insight and refreshing and optimistic perspectives. That kind of completed my treatment.
I leave, filled with hope and knowing that I will keep this wisdom in my heart, which will never be far from here.
Grateful to all of you at vaidyagrama..

To all my doctors, priests the lovely team, the staff at vaidyagrama.
Like every flower wilts
Like youth is fading
Each Virtue and wisdom needs parading
In one’s own time and must not last forever.
The heart must be, at each new call for leaving without to part and start without the tragic,
without the grief, with courage to endeavour a novel bond,
a disparate connection.
For each beginning bears a special magic
That nurtures living and bestows protection
We will walk from space to space in glad progression
And should not cling to one as homestead for us
The cosmic spirit will not bind nor bare us,
It lifts and widens us in every session for hardly set in one of life’s expanses we make it home and apathy commences.
But only he, who travels and take chances can break the habits paralyzing stances.
It even may be that the last of hours will make us once again a youthful lover.
The call of life to us forever flowers.
Thank you for giving me back strength and power that I can follow my next step with a heart full of love, acceptance and peace.
Yours,

I have found the satsang talks very useful and great support whilst here. I have enjoyed the other activities very much. It’s been good to see Indian life and learn about Hindu traditions. The doctors here have been very professional and have been an excellent support during my stay.

I had a very brief stay in Vaidyagrama. The experience I had here is inexplicable in words.
Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr Kesari, Dr Radhika, Dr Athulya are all very humble and attentive to our problems. They welcomed me as if this is my 100th visit to Vaidyagrama.
Dedication to duty - I could see this in every simple work. I could have never imagined that I can spend time without TV, laptop. Right from early morning till going to bed, the doctors and therapists took care of me very well.
Right kind of food, followed by right medicines, given at right time by right people can cure any disease. This is the feeling I carry with me. I thank all the staff , therapists, housekeeping staff and above all Dr.Harikrishnan and doctors for having given a memorable experience.
Let your duty continue as the same is duty of god.

To All at Vaidyagrama, Thousand Pranams !!!!
The 6 days I have been here, was a fantastic experience; never missed my family and home. Being in the hospitality industry it is essential to satisfy the customer needs. Here it was a customer delight!
All the people whom I was in touch took good care of me right from Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Kesari, Dr.Radhika., therapists ,the housekeeping ladies, the pantry-in-charge taught me many things, keeping everything simple & humble.
Had a chance to meet Geetha and Aparna too. Heard a lot of things about Punarnava and Punarnava Trust’s noble things done for society.
‘System makes things possible, but it is the people who make it happen’.
With the kind of involved and motivated group at Vaidyagrama, it is for sure to go places. Thanks for giving the opportunity to pen my feelings!

Dearest vaidyagrama Family,
Thank you for welcoming me back to the beautiful space of peace, tranquillity, birds, prayer, simplicity, love and healing. Thank you for taking care of me, for supporting me, teaching me and showing me by example that a simple, peaceful, harmonious and healthy life is possible. Thank you for all the nurturing and nourishment for feeding my soul, and enabling me to open my mind and heart. I cherish the care and love shown to me and that drives this community.
I acknowledge and feel deep gratitude to everyone who has contributed to my healing at all levels- the kitchen, staff, the support staff, the doctors, therapists, administration.
Dr. Ramadas- Thank you for your gentle presence, compassionate care and also for the laughter when you show me sometimes how much I “sweat the small stuff ”
Dr. Aruna – For your understanding and taking time to explain things to me.
Dr. Anupama – For your care
Archana - for taking care of me and being so patient, always with a smile.
Jaysree - for all your care and concern.
Baby Aunty for making my rooms special.
And to all the staff for your contribution.
I pray that only good and beautiful things come your way.
May you all are blessed with love, peace, good health and prosperity until we meet again.
Be well!
Much love and blessings,

With deep-seated gratitude, respect and a sense of well being Gauri, Shilpa, and I (Natasha) would like to thank Vaidyagrama for giving us an opportunity to engage with our selves and learn a special way of healing, caring and love through Ayurveda.
The exemplary patience, experience and knowledge brought to our lives by Dr Harikrishnan.K.K and his team Dr Athulya, Dr.Kesari, Dr Radhika, the lovely attendants Vidya, Indu, Lakshmi &all the support team from housekeeping, Sonia, the team at the Reception & the kitchen provided an experience which will stand the test of time.
The immense learning from the engaging Satsangs held by Dr Ramkumar and Dr Ramadas, his prayers, classes , have all left a very special impression in our minds and hearts.
We hope that we will reflect through our thoughts and well-being what we learned at Vaidyagrama when we return to our homes and place of work in Delhi tomorrow.
Growing up, my grandmother who lived in Kashmir never failed to remind us to learn from faiths and cultures which were other than ours .Through very simple, prayers she taught us that there is one god and He resides in each of us as we reside within Him amongst each other..as One.
This is beautifully epitomized by our memorable journey at Vaidyagrama .We are in gratitude to the family here where doctors ,attendants, patients all come together, as one to create an experience which is perfect, whole and in healing and well-being for whole. Am sharing a message from the Sikh guru Nanak dev ji who said, before becoming a Muslim, Sikh, Hindu or a Christian let us become a human.
It meant in any ways to become one and whole as humans perfecting the role rather than being fragmented and losing ourselves in separation. The essence of this is taught through the first root verse from the Sikh scriptures, which is also a very special prayer for strength and healing. May the universe inspire to shower upon all of you, your familes and Vaidyagrama the blessing of the creator for health, happiness and wellbeing ahead!
With warm regards,
Natasha Chaudari, Shilpa Gupta, Gauri Bhargava

It did not feel that I have come for my ailments. It is a wonderful little heaven, with very friendly and loving people. Very polite, even if they had made a little mistake, otherwise I would have shouted but I only had love and compassion for them. It was a wonderful experience and I feel like coming again and again.
Hope it remains like this for ever.
Thanks for everything.

In February this year, a voice whispered to my ear that it was the right time to take a plane ticket to India and make reservation at vaidyagrama. After 21 days in the healing and peaceful place, I am deeply convinced it was one of the best decisions I have taken in my life – I am just starting to perceive the benefits of all treatments received and the power of the energy of this wonderful oasis on earth. When I will be back here, piece of consciousness will gradually show up.
The gratitude goes to the amazing people that are making vaidyagrama everyday, to the profound knowledgeable and wise medical team to the patient and smiling therapists and all the persons who work here and with who we do not have interaction.
The work synergy of this amazing team is felt from the very first step in vaidyagrama. I am deeply thankful for this transforming experience and this blessed opportunity that have been given to me.
My best wishes for everyone at vaidyagrama

I almost escaped on the third day. Now I am not sure I want to leave! I can truly say that this could not have come at a better time. Everything happens for a reason or just as it should? Thank you to everyone! I ‘m sure there are many people that are behind the scenes that make this place what it is. The people that i have interacted with have made me feel very welcome & at home. It does feel like a family here. There seems to be a true, caring, and companionate interaction occurring in vaidyagrama that does not exist in most organisations or businesses. People care about each other! Yummy food! Mostly wonderful treatments Ha Ha Ha ! Great satsangs (why don’t we learn this stuff in school) and I’m learning to spend more time on positive thoughts and love.

This was our first visit to vaidyagrama, so we didn’t know what to expect. But as soon as we walked through and smelled the curry leaves, Neem, Tulsi and other herbs, our mind was at peace. Very inspired by Dr. Ramkumar’s Vision, and the love and dedication of every staff members... from the senior doctors to the therapists to the Gardeners and kitchen staff.
Even the kanji and moong dal grew on us by week 2! As we leave this sacred place, we hope to carry the spirit of vaidyagrama and all the wise lessons from Satsangs, the letting go, the discipline, the diet, and the syncing patterns of Nature with us. We thank you for all the thoughtful attention to detail at every level of the treatment.

After forty-five years of coming in India, that was my first Ayurveda healing.
During my fourteen days of stay, felt at home, keeping my door open all long day with no stress.
Thank you all for the kindness, quietness, affection, listening, authenticity....
I am sure treatment will be so effective that I will come back every year.....I hope so.
It was also nice to do or just listen to the prayer.
Special thanks to Dr. Anupama, who was so professional, gentle and patient with me.

This has been my 9th trip to vaidyagrama, I have seen it grow and develop into a healing place with amazing positive energy. Dr. Ramkumar’s Vision has made this a miracle place.
The doctors, one and all, are of course extremely knowledgeable; but it’s their dedication and kindness that helps us heal.
Dr. Ramadas, with his wonderful smile and patience, is so calm, which helps to heal just by looking and listening to him.
Dr. Aruna, Dr. Harikumar, Dr. Mubash all has been very caring. The therapists are again so caring and gentle. Devaki was excellent. The cleanliness is always excellent.
The food improves every time I come - I think Preeti is doing a difficult job very well. Not easy to please everyone.
Inshallah, will return next year to this healing paradise.
Thank you everyone!

To the wonderful / loving people at Vaidyagrama
I have completed four weeks here and am so blessed and happy to have experienced the warm care and healing that is in abundance here.
My initial week was a little tough, and I was concerned about how I would last for 28 days. You all have made me feel so comfortable & relaxed, that I am leaving feeling healed & at peace.
A very special thank you to Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Ramkumar, Dr.Kesari, Dr.Athulya, the cleaning staff, and block 7’s wonderful therapists- Kalpana, Mrudula and Vaishnavi- they were all very attentive to my needs. I have truly felt very much at home, and hope this healing continues as I leave this peaceful sanctuary. My wish is to return here soon to continue in my journey of health and wellness.
All the best to you as you keep the spirit alive here- there is definitely a wonderful healing energy here that envelops all of us who are fortunate to experience.
Last but not least, thanks to Aparna & Preeti as well for their help in questions I had – they were always there for me too.
Love to all,

Living in line with Nature, with simple food and expert authentic treatment methods are the highlighting factors of this place. This place will definitely bring out the "Simple "person residing inside everyone.
My sincere thanks, to Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Athulya, Ms.Aparna for your kind service.

Coming to Vaidyagrama for me is a promise that I will be rejuvenated not only in body, but also in spirit.
Each time I go back, I am healthier, happier and optimistic. I grow in self assurance that I can cope with all my health issues.
The environment, the treatment, the doctors, the therapists and staff do their best in understanding the patients. I would term them nothing less than miracle work. I have freed myself from a few chronic conditions, and I owe it to the doctors here.
My stay here for the past 24 days have been blissful, peaceful and content. I am in complete solidarity with the treatments, procedures, food and faculties provided here at Vaidyagrama.
I feel truly blessed to have had this experience.
My special thanks to Dr. Ramkumar, Dr Harikrishnan.K.K, Dr Kesari,
Dr Athulya, Dr Radhika, therapist Lakshmi chechi, Abhila , Vaishnavi, Aparna and Kavitha, Dr Ramadas and Dr Ramanandan too.
I thoroughly enjoyed all the Satsang and community dinner too.
I pray that the spirit behind the Vision of Vaidyagrama stays alive always.
My sincere wishes and prayer will always remain with all of you.

Given me pause to think of life from another perspective.
I very much enjoyed the serenity and the calm. The staff are amazing (warm, caring, and efficient). The doctors are also superlative (sensitive and knowledgeable). Except for mosquitoes, it has been an endearing experience

I arrived 3 weeks ago, unsure of what to expect, but with immense faith that I would feel much better at the end of my stay. That and more have happened in the last few weeks. I have enjoyed my days here, healing, learning about Ayurveda and a traditional way of life and observing the plants and these from my veranda.
I am grateful to Dr. Ramadas and his team and all at vaidyagrama who do a fantastic job to ensure we have a comfortable healing experience.

It is a unique and fantastic experience, my wife and I had during our stay of two weeks in Vaidyagrama.
We came for treatment thinking that it will be just a chikitsalayam, but later we realised it is not only for treatment for illness but also to purify our mind and soul!! The environment itself is so healing; it is so clean and neat everywhere.
The doctors and staff are so friendly and dedicated!!
One cannot expect this type of discipline and work elsewhere.
Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Krishnadas, Dr. Arsha, Dr. Aruna and Dr. Anupama (three A’s) are so friendly to patients.
Dr. Ramkumar’s vision is great! His idea of enhancing the existing, developing ‘Green Village’ is highly remarkable.
We wish him and his entire team all success!

The therapists have played a crucial role in my healing as well. In particular, my thanks to Reshma for her cheerful smile and determination to help me get better.
I will carry home what i have learned about Ayurveda replacing old bad habits with new healthy ones.

This is my 2nd visit to vaidyagrama within a span of year. Realisation of mistakes drew to me during the course of my treatment. For me it is a place to come to not just to treat health issues but makes changes to my perspective of life, a way of living in the wide world. The “free-will” available to exercise to human, how best we should redirect to the
benefit of our mind, body and spirit (soul).
During the 40 days course of treatment, there were ups and downs; but hats off to the patience, constant care and attention of all Dr’s (Dr. Ramadas, Dr. Aruna, Dr.Anupama, Dr. Arsha, Dr. Krishnadas), therapists (Bindu, Archana, Mythily, Shyni)
Along with the treatment I see my mind opening up to a light, both moments during my chats with Dr. Ramadas; his treatment included spiritual healing for me. Dr. Ramkumar, you are an inspiration to the powerhouse of knowledge you possess, for which I was always at a loss for questions. With gratitude, I bow down and thank you all
Staff I have not named who have directly and indirectly contributed to my healing process and not forgetting the co-patients whom we all beautifully blend with during our healing journey. These all are bonds and memories for a lifetime.
Thank you!!

Chanting of Vishnu sahasranama and Lalita sahasranama in the morning and evening was a pleasant experience. Also big thanks for holding weekly cow pooja and show caring for the animal in a good way thus. I can keep writing pages, but will stop here with a special thanks to Dr. Ramadas!

To Vaidyagrama family,
We stayed here for 19 days. It has been such a great experience. All the doctors are so good and caring.
I am especially thankful to Dr. Harikrishnan.K.K, Dr Kesari and Dr. Athulya. This is not a hospital; we felt as if we are staying with a family. All the therapists are very good.
Thanks to Dr Ramkumar, he gave such a useful knowledge you can’t afford to miss and his wonderful Vision. He is a great man.
Food is Ok. It should be improved. Even healthiest food can be made tastier, and then there will not be wastage of food. People in office are a bit slow and they could improve their service.
With lots of love,

To My Dear Vaidyagrama family
Yes, after my stay of 45 days here, Vaidyagrama has become like another family. All the staff members, doctors, have made my stay blissful and healing. They have taken care of my treatments like the way your family close to you does.
The food, the environment, and the care - everything makes Vaidyagrama a perfect healing place. I am also thankful to all the other doctors with whom we had wonderful satsangs and prayer sessions. The efficiency of all the staff members is excellent.
I once again thank Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr Kesari, Dr Athulya & Dr Radhika for taking my care. I am sure Vaidyagrama will keep up the tradition of authentic Ayurveda & help heal numerous around the world.
In the present days where allopathic is spreading its wings- it is becoming more and more challenging to preserve our wonderful tradition of Ayurveda which I think is true healing or rather holistic healing.
I really admire the Vision of Dr Ramkumar for creating Vaidyagrama to spread the light of Ayurveda. My best wishes.

And I go back satisfied in my soul, renewed and refreshed!
I am eternally grateful i have found an oasis like this, where truth& integrity still blossom.

They are very kind and they provided good service and care.
Treatment therapy and kashayam is healing the whole body and it felt good for the body. The diet food, satsangs and interactions between the doctor and patient, the prayer was very useful and provided peace of mind. Once again I thank you all for the wonderful stay at vaidyagrama

My heartfelt thanks to Dr. Ramadas and all his team in block 3, thank you Dr. Ramkumar for your infinite patience at satsang and a resounding cheer, and thanks to all the staff who make vaidyagrama such an oasis of peace and healing.
I would especially like to applaud the dedication and focus of the lady gardeners who care for the plants with such love and care.
Saturday’s group dinner prompted me to pen words to a song to be sung to the age old tune of ‘Ke sera bena’
3 weeks ago in vaidyagrama, we had no idea, what we would see very soon we found, knowledge profound life lived in harmony.
“Oh! What joy to be
Living in simplicity,
With doctors so caring and kind,
Guiding body and mind,
Our brains are full of facts they are,
Doshas - vata, pitta, kapha
Simple food we love, well for all tum

I have to give the credit for our coming to vaidyagrama to my wife Hootoksi. We had heard about it from Yazdi, who was miraculously cured here; an unbelievable achievement.
At first I was rather sceptical and was in two minds whether to accompany Hootoksi or not. The decision to go along was made almost at the last moment and I’m sure I will never forget it.
My 21 days stay has been an eye opener and an important learning experience.
Although I came with no serious health issues I leave 21 days later feeling rejuvenated, with a cleaner mind and fresh resolve.
For this I thank the doctors, the therapists, the kitchen and all the other staff from the bottom of my heart. In my 60 years of working in different countries I have never experienced a more friendly, caring and helpful group of people than there at vaidyagrama.
I hope I will have an opportunity to visit again, and even if I am not so fortunate I will always have the nicest things to say about vaidyagrama to whoever will listen.

I had no idea what to expect and I can honestly say it has been nothing short of amazing! A true honour to have been cared for so well by the therapists, doctors, admin, as well as other patients. I can finally say I have a happy place, and I use the word honour because this kind of exceptional care is rare in U.S. I very much look forward to returning next summer with my mother. Vaidyagrama is overwhelming in the most wonderful way.
A great place and people to spend my birthday... with beautiful gardens, very relaxing even for my eyes; I loved eating the food with my fingers.
I cannot thank everyone here enough for the love and care. I haven’t got it all figured out, but I know it’s all gonna be okay and am a bit closer than when I arrived.
Preeti rocks. Dr. Ramadas and Dr. Ramkumar are the best.

I came to vaidyagrama with very little knowledge of what it was going to be like. My intuition said that this was what I needed and I came here ready to surrender my body and mind. It was this attitude and trust that allowed me to gain the most out of my treatment and time here. 20 days later, I am leaving cleansed, calmer, with a lot more peace of mind and like the pot in my courtyard says- FAITH in the journey of life...like Dr.Ramadas said on day 1, I have found balanced answers to a lot of my questions.
I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude for everyone here at vaidyagrama.
A special thank you to Dr.Ramadas and Shinymol for your kindness and patience.
I am truly blessed to have had this experience.
Endless love and gratitude,

I have felt happy and truly well cared for at Vaidyagrama. This is my first time and i am leaving with lightness in my joints, heart & mind. I have cleared my pathways on many levels.
The first few days were difficult but the energy of this place helps you detoxify. THANK YOU ! To Dr.Ramanand, Dr.Anupama, to my therapists, to Preeti for food, to the lovely lady who cleaned my room, to Praveena and all the great people who make this place a sanctuary for becoming a better person.
See you again!

I want to express my gratitude to my doctors and therapists.
Thank you for your wonderful work. And the special environment is a blessing.
A place with a Vision, and full of heart and spirit.
I will come back, again.

I came here not well, and am going back feeling lighter in mind and feeling healed.
It a place for mind, body and soul.
I thank Dr.Ramkumar, for his Vision, and his team to start Vaidyagrama.
My special thanks to Dr.Ramanandan, Dr.Harikumar, Dr. Mubash, and therapists Devaki and Maheswari and others including maintenance people.
Everyone is so dedicated in their service. Be it, all doctors, office staff, the kitchen, garden and other staff always sincerely go about their work.
Thank you again and i hope to be here again next year.
A special thank you to the doctors, and Preethi - Thank you for bearing my bothering; but all the same it has been a divine experience.

The three weeks we spent in Vaidyagrama gave me and my mother the opportunity to bond with each other and talk more about things we have no time to talk about at home. Because of the peace and quiet, I was able to catch up on lots of school work and I feel that the three weeks here are not only useful for spiritual awareness, but also for doing things one cannot do at home. My mother and i would like to thank Dr. Ramanandan and the group of therapists working in block 6 for just being so kind to us. We will come back soon!
Thank you!

Wow...what a journey!
It’s been amazing and tough in equal measure, but the results have been absolutely worth it.
I feel lighter; my asthma, eczema has improved significantly and i am leaving with a calmer head. Am sure I will feel much more energetic once I get home too.
Thank you all the doctors and nurses for your kindness and attentiveness. And for keeping me on the straight and narrow through my cravings!
I hope your centre continues to blossom and grow, so that you can offer this treatment to many more people.Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to come here. I am eternally grateful.

We came to Vaidyagrama with an open mind, not fully knowing what to expect.
We were able to understand and experience the meaning of Ayurveda as well as the principles and values behind it, during our stay.
We leave tomorrow with an enhanced feeling of goodness and awareness. We would like to put in a special word for the professionalism and constant attention we received from the Doctors. The therapists were also very helpful and caring.
We shall certainly return to review the experience.

We have been here for 22 days. We had a great relaxation and rejuvenation. The treatment and care was all up to our expectation, and we had great satisfaction. The daily activities in vaidyagrama were also interesting and informative.
The treatment was very good and we could feel the improvement during the course of the treatment itself and we are expecting complete recovery in the mean time with the same confidence.
And we have planned for a yearly visit to vaidyagrama...We thoroughly enjoyed the ambience, food, care, activities on the whole.
Sincere thanks to Dr. Ramanandan, Dr. Harikumar, Dr.Mubash and other junior doctor Dr.Anupama.
Thank you very much doctors, staff, therapists for your dedicated services.

Pranam to all. Always God gives opportunity to meet like-minded people. In this place, I really enjoyed each and every minute of the days. I love this place because doctors, therapists and other people are so humble and we can easily approach them.
My back pain is completely gone. Thank you so much. Really, me and my husband want to come back. We are going to miss this place, people, environment, therapists and doctors.
My humble namsakaram to Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr Kesari, Dr Athulya and Lakshmi chechi. By God s grace, may you all enjoy good health, long life, enough prosperity, wisdom and peace. Be blessed by the divine. Thank you...Thank you from bottom of my heart.

Dear Doctors and staff at Vaidyagrama,
This has been the first time for Basanti and I to Vaidyagrama. We had heard great things about Vaidyagrama, but the reality is it is even more special.
Firstly and most importantly, every one has been so warm and loving to Basanti... that is to be remembered always. And then the approach of the doctors, their presence in terms of being genuine and gentle is deeply appreciated. Like many, I had been to other doctors for my health issues- but now I feel I am on the right path.
Also, the building design, the pujas, the cooking classes, garden walk, are all in our memories. Most of all, I love that the whole area is surrounded by Ayurvedic herbal plants and trees. Truly wonderful!

First time here, and it was definitely a lovely experience. To be far away from home for about 3 weeks seemed really long, but it went by quickly. Special thanks to Dr.Ramanandan, Dr.Harikumar, Dr. Anupama, Dr. Sivajyothi, Dr.Mubash and the therapists Pravina, Reshma who were really caring and helpful.
Some interesting encounters and bonding were made over these few days, and that made our stay even more enriching. Finally the day of departure has come, and it is with a heavy heart that we are leaving.
Planning to come back again next year.

To all the wonderful people at Vaidyagrama,
Our arrival at Vaidyagrama brought us to a completely different world, so calm and close to Nature with a sense of strong connection to the ancient Ayurvedic Healing.
Although the first few days were a bit difficult to adapt, we soon adjusted ourselves to the lifestyle at Vaidyagrama with the help of the caring Doctors. The lovely, caring staff & the meticulous cleaners, made our stay very comfortable.
We are very grateful to all the Doctors and the therapists who treated us, and we appreciate their patience in addressing our requirements during our stay. A fact to be admired at Vaidyagrama is how well all the staff are trained & disciplined.
A very special THANK YOU to Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Kesari & Dr.Athulya for taking such special care of our health. Our therapists Kalpana & Mrudula, Lakshmi, Vaishnavi are very kind and caring. Today we leave Vaidyagrama with lovely memories and a better health, which we wish to keep & continue for the days to come.
All of the charity works organized by Vaidyagrama need much recognition and admiration. Wishing Vaidyagrama Great Success & a wonderful future in these endeavours to heal people in need.
All the Best!

My very first time in India and of course I have spent all my time at Vaidyagrama. I did not experience anything of the outside world. But I came here for healing, and that I did.
My 4 ½ weeks here were not always easy, as my body went through the various detox processes and not always reacted as I expected. So learning to live with the highs and lows of healing; the mental challenges as well as the physical were also a learning curve.
Thank you to the Doctors and other staff for helping me through my lows, celebrating with me my physical highs.
Vaidyagrama was exactly what I had expected like on the website.
The healing space that has been created is beautiful, calming. I am so impressed with sustainability approach, living simple in line with Nature. Hardly any waste; and all the recycling that is in place. Living by example is the way to change this world.
I had a wonderful healing experience on all 3 levels - Body,mind and spirit !
Thank you to everyone for being so human and welcoming; and allowing or better me with the opportunity to feel part of the Vaidyagrama family.
With lots of love to everyone!
Keep up the good work.

Dear vaidyagrama staff, doctors..
It is serene, heavenly, five star, conscious, eco-friendly, divine, loving, caring, patient, mystical, compassionate, fabulous, miraculous....These are just a few of the words to describe vaidyagrama and the staff, facility, food, people, events and community. I will never forget this special place and all of the love and care I received while here.
Dr.Ramdas, Dr.Aruna, Shyni and the therapists, housekeeping, cooks, administration, doctors, gardeners, I thank you for the very important work you all are doing to save the people s life, to make this world a better place.
Vaidyagrama has no comparison. The beauty here is breath-taking and I will have these gorgeous patios, gardens, forests, covered walk ways and kind faces imprinted in my heart and on my mind forever. I cannot wait to come back with my family. I will share this experience with everyone I know. Preeti, thank u for your five star meals; and Aparna, thank you for making this happen. Dr. Ramadas, thank you for everything. I send all my love.

The place is filled with good vibration and energy, which gives the feel and confidence that we can recover soon. Such helping and kind therapists (Efficient Bindhu and sweet Archana) and housekeeping staff also made our stay very pleasant. Not to miss out all the doctors who keep checking for my welfare. Such a wonderful place that you are maintaining.
Kudos to the great team work and hard work!
A special thanks and gratitude to Dr.Ramadas, who has taken away my fear from me and shown me a great path through love and Ayurveda. Move over, this place given me a lot of spiritual thoughts and knowing, which will help me to live my life and lead it holistically. Keep flourishing!

To My Dear Vaidyagrama Family,
I walked through the door of Vaidyagrama two weeks ago, with goals that my doctors in USA thought would be impossible to achieve in 2 weeks. I leave tomorrow having already surpassed the goals I had set for myself.
This is a magical place and every plant, brick and animal seem to be in sync with Nature... I felt it even before I was shown my room!
Vaidyagrama has showed me a new real and more evolved way to live. I hope I can apply every thing I have discovered here to my daily life. If every one in the world had a little slice of vaiyagrama, peace would prevail in the world.
The doctors Dr. Harikrishnan.K.K, Dr Radhika, Dr.Athulya were professional, positive, encouraging. I trust them completely. Dr.Ramdas' pujas healed my sprit, setting me back on the path of self realization that I had strayed from.
My three lovely, charming therapists – Indu, Vaishnavi, Shabiba - your very touch soothed my wrecked nerves. Your love could be felt in every drop of water you poured over me. I wish you all a happy life!
Preeti - for churning out one great meal after another. If I could eat like this all the time, I would become a better person.
Aparna - for answering my endless, annoying questions for the last few months.
And to all those who work behind the scenes to heal people who they might never see. Thank you!
And thank you Dr Ramkumar, for making such a place possible.
I hope to be back next year!
With love,

Dear family of Vaidyagrama,
It was so wonderful to note how well in synchrony and harmony you were working with each other, to make the atmosphere of Vaidyagrama conducive to healing peace of mind and body. Every member of Vaidyagrama has worked sincerely with devotion, without missing any detail in the upkeep and atmosphere of this wonderful place.
Vaidyagrama to me, has been like a family away from family. Every detail was looked into. Even the slightest discomfort was taken seriously and looked into. Thanks to all the doctors, therapists and support staff who have made me felt like I mattered, and pampered me with their attention and healing hands. Every session, treatments and satsang I have attended has been a learning and nutrition, food for thought.
I feel blessed for having met the right people, right intervention which came at the right time especially in my present state of mind and my son’s life.
God bless the family of Vaidyagrama!

Thanks to everyone in Vaidyagrama for taking care of my health, and also for providing excellent service for all the needs. I visited in October 2015 last time, during navaratri and this time also I visited during navaratri. Since this was my second visit there was no anxiety or surprise about "what to expect” as it was, and I surrendered to health professionals to take care of me. My treatment was very good and it made a lot of difference.
The food this time, compared to 2015, was a lot better in taste, but I felt quantity was more. During last visit, I assumed the quantity served is what is needed for my treatment, but this misunderstanding was cleared this time. I tried to eat less as some days my appetite was not that great. Since from my childhood I was taught not to throw food, I was always eating everything in my last visit, and also during this visit until I learnt in satsang that it is not what it is.
The satsangs were useful and informative. Sometimes I saw that people asked questions on totally different subjects, and I thought that time was not well utilized especially in Dr Harikumar’s satsang. It would be beneficial to stay focussed, as my learning depends upon what opportunity I get to listen during my short span of visit. I really enjoyed all satsang sessions and got lot of wisdom to apply those principles to my lifestyle after I return back home.
The staff is very hardworking, friendly and supportive. The massage therapist Laluprasad and others were very good. In 2015 as well as in 2017, I met Laluprasad and he was my therapist.
I got lot of privacy and was able to read philosophical books – sitting in place surrounded by trees and nature. The birds sound was fantastic and one day I was able to see the peacock as well.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone here in Vaidyagrama. You are all doing very great service to mankind. Keep it up. God bless everyone here.

The programmes and satsangs will be very much missed. The therapists are all very good, and everyone is smiling.
A special thanks to Dr.Radhika who was a big support. She was monitoring us so well. You have taught me a lot about food.

To all at Vaidyagrama,
I must say that when I was coming here, I was quite uneasy about it- but now that I have completed 3 weeks- and am feeling so much better than when I came. I have to take it all back.
The doctors, therapists, and staff have been absolutely wonderful-gentle and understanding. And I thank you all, with all my heart, soul. May God bless you all and I hope to see you all once again.
With best regards to you all- May Vaidyagrama prosper!

You are one of the best things that has happened to me, to say the least. I shall miss you.. and this experience will be treasured. The awareness about how simple lifestyle changes can help us lead a healthy life is the major take-away from this visit. I have learned that there are so many small day-to-day activities which I have been doing wrong all my life.
I have sometimes thanked my neck pain because of which I get a chance to experience this place. The treatment, no doubt, is unique and rejuvenating; but apart from that the Puja, Satsang and the place itself together just make this place a heaven. And so many interesting people around from all parts of India and the world.
The doctors and all the therapists and the staff have been really caring, and I cannot thank them enough.
Yours Thankfully,

Vaidyagrama has been a refreshing eye-opener, and a very much welcomed change of experience which has helped me open up to new perspective and I am sincerely grateful for that.
A big thank you to everyone who helped and supported me through this journey, especially to Dr Ramadas, Dr. Ramkumar and Dr. Ramanandan, also to the staff and therapists who treated me so well and gave me company all through namely Mr Rajesh, Ms Preethi, Ms Aparna, Junior doctors- Dr Sajna, Dr Aruna, Dr Krishnadas, Dr Mubash, Dr Arsha, the therapists- Mr Lalu and to all the others whose names I have forgotten to list, thank you all.
Although seriously the amount of names I have listed is a testimony itself to the highly personalised care one gets at this establishment.
My sincere thanks to you all.
God bless!!

Vaidyagrama is the "space" to be in, sometime in your life! Having spent 3 weeks here, I feel I’m on the right path for my health, and therefore, happiness. Dr. Ramanandan and his able team has been one of the best things that could have happened to me, and I’m looking forward to the healing process that's expected to complete in the next 3 months.
A big thank you to Dr.Ramkumar; really enjoyed your extremely informative talks and satsangs, and for creating such a wonderful ambience.
Hope to be able to contribute to greater success of Vaidyagrama in future. All my best wishes to the entire team who put up their supportive bit in ensuring a seamless process.

I came in the last week to accompany Vishal and see for myself what is Vaidyagrama all about. It’s a little oasis where you understand the idea of 'unconditional love', acceptance and sharing. It gave a beautiful time to break away from the daily chores. Time to reflect on how much you need to let go. The team of Doctors, support staff and every single being is amazing and supportive, encouraging and smiling. The presence of divine healing energy and pure bliss is intrinsic in Vaidyagrama air.
Truly blessed and thankful. This is an association to life!!

After my 5th visit here (each for 3 weeks & one for 5), it is heartening to note that things are only going better to better. The smiles, the care, the concern of all doctors, therapists, the house keeping team, the ladies that clean the room, the gardeners, Hakim etc. is really amazing. Everyone goes out of their way to make things better. This is even if your doctors tell that anything you like to eat is not good for you.
What struck me was that most faces were recognized from earlier visits- shows that they are looked after well & so there is no need to look elsewhere.
Vaidyagrama has a heart.

Apart from the healing of body, it’s the healing of mind and the healing of soul that gives me a sense of being at peace with the world.
The lessons I have learnt of acceptance are beyond measure. The warmth and the humility of all the doctors and staff, the compassion that I have been treated with, makes me feel blessed to the core.
I leave knowing that I shall be back next year, Inshah Allah.
I leave knowing that my mind and body will continue to heal for many months to come.
What has been especially heart-warming is seeing the vision envisaged by the founder doctors come to fruition, and to know that there is still so much growth to come.
Good luck and a big Thank you!

Last day, last treatment, last satsang and last puja!
Don’t want to leave, but responsibility calls.
My second time at Vaidyagrama and once again it has been an incredible experience! Living Ayurveda on a daily basis is a blessing and I am hoping to take more nuggets of wisdom with me.
Thank you Vaidyagrama family,
Dr Ramadas for your knowledge of Ayurveda and wisdom, taking such good care of me! Dr Aruna and Bindhu for my wonderful treatments.
A special thanks to Sonia and Hakeem for making my wish of a ‘traditional saree’ come true, it was far and beyond the call of duty.
Preeti and the kitchen staff for the nourishment. Preeti, I look forward to the cook book.
A heartfelt thank you to Dr.Ramkumar for all your support and guidance, I look forward to joining the vg family. Vg is a great example of a true and authentic vision and I hope it stays that way for years to come. See you next year!! My love and thanks to all the staff working behind the scenes!
Love and gratitude always,

Healing is inevitable in a place like Vaidyagrama where the doctors are sincere, wise and patient, and where the calm and cool ambience only tends itself to recovery.

Dear Vaidyagrama,
Having just planted my Papaya tree I am feeling more at peace than I have in a very long time. And I feel so hopeful for a better and brighter future for myself. The words of thanks seem insufficient. The care and consideration I have received in just 2 short weeks is above my expectations. Thank you so much the wonderful doctors for clearing with my difficult problems so calmly and so well. Thanks for listening to the changes in my body and for making me feel heard.
Thank you to the wonderful caring therapists who have treated me so well and always with a smile!
Thank you for lots of great teachers in Satsang, it is so good to hear from such wise Vaidyas. Preeti and staff, my thanks for the delightful food. I never craved anything else.
I feel I have very less road ahead, but I feel my time at Vaidyagrama has prepared me well for the journey; and I pray I can return again next year when the bad habits might return. I look forward at that time to seeing new projects and initiatives of Vaidyagrama.
Punarnava has developed as it is, not just as a place but a living, breathing, feeling, entity that is always growing. Just like the Papaya tree, it has planted a seed in my heart that will bear fruits of health, peace and happiness.
Oh, and the Community Dinners are absolutely wonderful!!!
Om Shanti Om!

Thanks to the VG family, as I complete my second year of treatment. The best part about VG is that you don’t feel like a patient. I loved my stay here and am looking forward to my next. Thanks to Dr.Harikrishnan, all my therapists, especially Lakshmi chechi, who went above and beyond and took care of me like her own daughter. Special thanks to Vidya & Vaishnavi.
Love to all,

Wow! When I was thinking of coming here, friends suggested places that were in my price range. Each thought in my mind and my tight budget told me that the logical choice to make was not to go to Vaidyagrama.
But I listened to my heart. This is the second place that I have found in my life that I can only describe as real. It’s a place where theory and practice come together with good results and where actions are based on principles. The environment is a grounding one. The people are striving to be their best. What beautiful examples of generosity and compassion!
In addition to a huge thank you to all the doctors and therapists for their amazing work and for keeping this place alive; & special thanks to Dr.Ramkumar for his emphasis on regular practice and to Dr.Ramdas for his advice to think positively.
I don’t want to change anything about this place. I only hope as Vaidyagrama expands, you consider building more simple rooms for the people who would like to come and cannot afford it. You do so much excellent (and important) work for the communities and you have an amazing treatment centre that is not cheap in anyway(nor should it be). I would love to see Vaidyagrama more accessible to the people in between the wealthy and the impoverished.
With nothing but gratitude, amazement and joy that this place exists.

Reset, Recharged, on the road again!
This is the sixth time that I am coming to this sacred place. This time I felt all my time here like a Celebration.
Celebration of life!
Life is too short to stay grumpy! I want to stay at ease with myself and at the same time alert-like I feel now.
Life is too short to waste it with so many problems and heaviness in the mind. Why not just to be content and happy.. We are so rich.
You are awesome! All of you.
I am very happy to be a part of Vaidyagrama family.
It was the best place to celebrate my 20 years of Ayurveda clinic.
Thank you

This is my first time staying at Vaidyagrama as well as my first visit to India. I had heard many good things about Vaidyagrama and this experience has met every expectation. From the top down, every doctor and staff member have made my stay more welcome and comfortable. From the moment of arrival, I have been more present and at peace. We live in a world of computers, cell phones and fast paced lifestyle. Vaidyagrama has been my haven of healing for the past 13 days. I am grateful for everyone that has contributed to my time of rest and hope to make Vaidyagrama my sanctuary in the future when it’s needed again.
Thank you for everything!

This is my third visit to Vaidyagrama in last 6 years. It is with immense heartfelt gratitude that I thank everyone at Vaidyagrama for the exceptional care, hospitality, service, presence, knowledge and for sharing this holistic, integrated and profoundly wise model of living in harmony with nature, with others and with ourselves.
The doctors and staff (from administration and maintenance and housekeeping to therapists, cooks and guest relations) are unparalleled in their commitment to service -always radiating a smile or acknowledgment with a hand on the heart and a sincere desire to make a difference in the quality of one’s treatment/stay.
Very special thanks to Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr Ramkumar, Dr Athulya, Dr Kesari and Lakshmi for the gracious and humble ways in which you each share your knowledge and gifts of care.
Each time I return home to the USA, I incorporate and align a layer of the Ayurveda lifestyle into my life and as a result I experience better health, more self-awareness, greater discipline, increased energy and improved relationships-internally with my own mind and body and externally in relation to others. I still have a long way to go, but it is a journey that I embrace with more conviction and optimism than ever before.
Thank you Vaidyagrama Family… I look forward to seeing you again next year.
Blessing and Love to you all!

My last evening @ VG is spent with ever smily Maheswari as she lovingly padabyangas me with the hope that I sleep well. Whether or not I do, no longer matters. I go back tomorrow with all the gifts/ tools/ knowledge be accept and be patent the love devotional and effort of so many will pay off.
When asked whether she was “enjoying” herself, one of my new friend hesitated and said, it was not her idea of “fun”; For me it was fun. I was learning, healing, having lunch with a fist sized butterfly, her hand matching mine, listening to Dr.Ramadas’s magnificent baritone, being pounded with shape, surrounded by love, nature, perfectionism, the patter patter of rain drops and chatter chatter of @ least 6 different birds....What not to enjoy!
Thank you Vaidyagrama team and all of you those I saw and met daily (Dr Ramanandan, Dr Harikrishnan, Dr.Ramadas, Devaki, Geethu, Maheswari, Kanaku, Preeti, to name a few) and those who labour behind the scene to keep the essence up. Meeting Aparna ji albeit briefly, was like catching up with an old friend. That is the spirit and energy of Vaidyagrama. A few moments is all it takes to make a connection comes through. May Vaidyagrama always be surrounded by grace.
With much love, respect and gratitude,

I feel I should write my gratitude to Lorilee and Tyler, because it is due to them that I am here. Lorilee is my yoga teacher and mentor. She has taught me so much about Ayurveda and then brought me here, to India, so that I could experience everything for myself and I am so grateful. This Panchakarma cleansing experience at vaidyagrama has reached into depths of my soul and the core of my being, refreshing me.
Re-energizing and creating a new me from the cells outward, I will take this experience with me in my heart, mind, soul and body.
And I’m sure I will be back with my own crew.

Came with a lot of fear, thinking what type of thing it must be.
But good that it was one of the best layouts I have ever seen. Everything is intricately, carefully done. The Mandir is my weak-point; the library, philosophy, sessions, staff - all was wonderful. The doctors' special attention was touching the heart, and I would like to visit again.
Thank you so much.
Yours faithfully,

What an experience! First time in India.
Vaidyagrama is a sacred place! Sacred with God and Goddesses, doctors, masseurs etc; and this place touches all community by their prayers, smiles, kindness, care and a great knowledge, and presence of the visible and invisible worlds, the nature, the simplicity.
I didn't know that it could happen. I speak a little English only. But I loved massages, silence, calm, birds, vegetarian food, Ayurveda.
I love to meet other persons from the whole world, and it was very interesting!
I learnt that tomorrow is no problem.
I learnt acceptance.
I learnt positivity of mind.
Thank you very much! Best wishes for you!

I am breathing…. Inhale…. 1,2,3,4,5…. Exhale 1,2,3,4,5…
I am deeply grateful. I am awakening to the light of my own true nature. I am growing downwards into my skin and upwards into the light. I imagine each person that comes here has their own unique experience. A microcosm of the Greater Universal life…
It will take me time, quite some time, I imagine, to digest all that has happened for me here.. TRUST, SURRENDER, LET GO, COME HOME. The care, kindness, knowledge and skill, the challenges, joys, realisation of the profound presence and playfulness of my therapists.... I will hold you in my heart forever…
With love and blessings,

Of all your patients, I will probably the only one who decided to come to Vaidyagrama 3 days before I took off, and obviously I had no time to prepare and no time to know what to look for.
I will give 200% marks for the following areas:
* Doctor care and commitment to explain intricate details
* Support staff, cleaning, food, medicine, front office people
(Food was awesome, just a small request if garlic can be avoided.)
* Library
I will make a special mention of a few people - Archana, Biju, Lalu Prasad, Dr Ramadas, Dr Harikumar, Dr Ramanand, Dr Sajna, Dr Arsha.
Last but not least my friend Manu, the little kid chasing cats!
One thing I would recommend a change would be because so many foreigners are coming here I would provide a simple Ipad like device to all patients with following features.
1. Should connect only to IURL so that no surfing is possible.
2. Should be able to enter daily parameters like urine, stool etc.
3. Check in and check out of library
4. Laundry service
5. All slokas
6. Daily calendars and appointment time/ location
7. Contact for doctors
8. Contact for supporting staff.
I feel this will add value and help in scaling up operations the system, once it is integrated with accounting systems, and inventory system can comply with medical record keeping requirement with responsibility based access for 100% security.
I have 25 years’ experience in automating for large companies and will be glad to help you.
Great mission! I will spread this message to my people, and hope to return with my son and my wife in 2018.

I have been in severe chronic pain for years now, and the condition is extremely debilitating it robs you of you; even ability to think rationally to process information to approach life with the essence of acceptance. There have been many times I have contemplated suicide as Western medicine can only go so far.
I am hoping with the treatment I received here, and by sticking to my dinacharya and diet, with seasonal adjustments, that I will eventually be pain-free.
Loving care is what I received here from my medical team headed by Dr Ramadas, and including my therapists Mythili, Shalini as well as Sameena.
I thought the food was good, though I initially did not enjoy the rice gruel Kanji.
Holistic preventive health care what is surely needed in the West.

I live simple, live healthy. This is going to be a new thread, and after learning it at Vaidyagrama, I'm deeply thankful for your care, for your hospitality, your kindness and so much other attention that did have a great impact on me.
Yes, we can live and make a better world for all and you are all the living evidence that this is real and possible. It was like I have met a real family here, and will be cherishing my memories of time here. My deep gratitude to the entire medical team who understood me better than I did. I will not forget all you did!
My huge Thanks to all of you involved in making this great moment. I pray for many more blessings upon you with my deep love.

Things happen at the right time, you say. This was a right time for me to stay at Vaidyagrama, and it will for sure change one's life in one or the other way, and I am now leaving this place full of happiness, enthusiasm, peace, and feeling rested.
There are a few places in this world that can give us fresh air amidst the craziness of our modern lifestyles, making us realise what is really important and what is not. Vaidyagrama is one of these places.
Thanks to all of you the Vaidyagrama family for making this happen!
Take care and au revoir!

Dear Doctors & Team at Vaidyagrama,
With great joy, I am completing my third trip to Vaidyagrama, where I can say it’s the best place to experience Ayurveda. With so many writers, Gurus, speakers, often we lose touch with the experiential aspect of Ayurveda in India. Keep the great work and see you very soon!.
Thanks Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Kesari & Team.

This is our first experience. Dr.Harikrishnan, Dr.Kesari, Dr.Athulya & Dr.Radhika, all doctors are so wonderful and helpful. I have not met anyone this caring & humble in my life. The therapists and staff are also helpful. Anytime I needed anything they were there with smile. All my treatments were also good. We really enjoyed all Satsangs by Dr.Ramkumar, Dr.Ramadas and Dr. Ramanandan. We learnt a lot from them. This is a very well managed Ayurveda Treatment centre.
Thanks!

I thank Dr. Prathap and Dr. Kalpana who introduced Vaidyagrama for my Ayurveda treatment for holistic health wellness.
My stay for 14 days was very purposeful. I can say that I have undergone physical and psychological metamorphosis. I am carrying full faith in my mind that the treatment given here will trigger proper rejuvenation of my body and enthusiasm with high spirit in the mind.
The stay here in Vaidyagrama was comfortable, with the natural ambience, and a serene atmosphere. I felt safe in the hands of traditional, learned, dedicated, ancient Vedic Ayurveda team of senior scholarly doctors with the highest degree of vidva and rich experience.
All the staff members are well-trained, and they take care of the inmates with lots of care and concern.
My special thanks to Dr. Ramadas, Medical director, who took personal care in making the program for treatment and advising the medication. I have great gratitude to all his team of doctors, therapists and staff in all fields. I thank Ms. Aparna for having coordinated to coin my program and to make it happen.

Most importantly, a big thank you to Archana and her colleague. These two ladies were very attentive and made my stay truly exceptional.

I love the philosophy you have in the healing village, and I am happy to be a part of your Vision. I hope that you continue to grow as a community, guiding local people to a more sustainable future, while passing down the culture of Ayurvedic medicine in a genuine, authentic manner. Thank you for having me for treatment, though it was only for such a short period of time. It was a great experience getting away from city and being treated in traditional medicine.
Thank you,

After the hectic pace of city living, and in spite of correct exercise and correct diet, there is so much space to cleanse, rest, renew and align.

Thank you Vaidyagrama for being the true torchbearers of Ayurveda wealth and wellness.

Dear Vaidyagrama Kudumba (Family),
Thank you one more time, for making the last three weeks here at Vaidyagrama meaningful. On a physical space, from illness to wellness; on a mental space, by providing a duly healing space; and on a spiritual plane, by learning deeper lessons to come into anxious mind.
I am deeply impressed by the clarity of mind you have as an organisation and individually in each doctor & therapists.
This is my second time here; and on each of these visits I have cherished the calm, the serenity, the chanting (by Dr.Ramadas & Dr.Harikrishnan too), the Satsangs (especially by Dr.Ramkumar), the greenery, the co-existence of all elements of nature, the individual attention of the doctors, the warmth of the therapists, and above all, an opportunity to take learning, surrender, co existence, simplicity to a deeper and more beautiful meaning.
God bless each one of you in your collective vision of serving through a Healing village!
With Gratitude,
