Today I am going to share with you the three most important words in Ayurveda; AGNI-AMA and OJAS.
According to Ayurveda, the secret to health lies in the Digestive System, and considers good digestion "the giver of health".
The key to Health or Disease is AGNI.
AGNI is the Sanskrit word for "Fire" and is the metabolic power, digestive fire, responsible for extracting nourishment and eliminating toxins.
Agni is one of the most important principles of Ayurveda. A primary sign of good health is that your Agni is burning bright, that is, you are digesting your food efficiently, distributing all the necessary nutrients to every cell, and burning off waste products without leaving deposits of toxins.
AMA is the exact opposite of Agni; when our digestive fire is weak or irregular, we are unable to completely digest our food, emotions, experiences and information. As a result, our body accumulates what is known as AMA or toxic residue, residue that accumulates in the body. Ama blocks the free flow of energy and information throughout our body and shows up as tissue sludge, a foul smelling sticky substance, such as excess fat, plaque, and cholesterol that clog the major channels of the body.
AMA is the underlying cause of all disease.
OJAS is the Ayurvedic term for "VIGOR" aka "The Fountain of Youth". Ojas is your vital life force energy. It is the "juice" that invigorates us and is reflected by our inner strength, immunity, vibrancy, vitality and libido. It is the most concentrated essence of nutrients & energy in the body!
Learn how stoke your AGNI, rid yourself of AMA and enhance your OJAS.
By cleaning up your diet you will clean up your life!
Namaste.
