THE HIDDEN SECRET OF AYURVEDA is an excellent introduction and overview of the profound, ancient Indian healing system known as Ayurveda. This book gives the reader a chance to sense the working principles of Ayurveda, and see how Ayurveda can be adapted and integrated into life in a practical way, for today’s health needs. The word Ayurveda can be translated as “the knowledge of life” or more correctly as “the knowledge of longevity”. Ayurvedic healing looks at the whole person—the body, the mind, and the spirit—and helps to develop an individual program to bring balance, good health and at least a taste of immortality.

Dr. Robert Svoboda is the first Westerner ever to graduate from a college of Ayurveda and be licensed to practice Ayurveda in India. During and after his formal Ayurvedic training he was tutored in Ayurveda, Yoga, Jyotish, Tantra and other forms of classical Indian lore by his mentor, the Aghori Vimalananda. He is the author of twelve books including Prakriti: Your Ayurvedic Constitution and the Aghora series, which discusses his experiences with his mentor during the years 1975 – 1983.
In the years since 1986 Dr. Svoboda has traveled extensively, spending three months per year on average in India. He often speaks on Ayurveda, Jyotish, Tantra and allied subjects in locales across the world. More about Dr. Svoboda can be found on his website.
“Ayurveda is the ultimate in holistic sciences because it takes into account all the important natural forces which act on the human being.”
