Ayurveda has fully described the science of life in biological terms extending the knowledge in a systematic manner describing the Phenomenon of health, disease, methods of diagnostics, prognostics, and health care both Promotive, Preventive and Curative. Because of such developments, Ayurveda could emerge as a complete system of Health Science and Medicine.
When one compares Ayurveda with contemporary Western Medicine, he may perceive that Ayurveda is an Experimental Science in contrast to Western Medical Science which is largely Experimental. Ayurveda is a classical Holistic Health Science as compared to Modern Medicine which is essentially a Reductionistic science. Ayurveda is dominantly Philosophical and Physiological in its presentation while modern medicine is more physical and anatomical. Ayurveda is strongly Pro-Nature as compared to modern medicine which may appear many times Anti-Nature. It is a diet and life style oriented system of health science in contrast to the drug and surgery oriented nature of modern medicine. Ayurveda is strongly promotive and preventive system of medicine as compared to Western Medicine where the main concern is disease and cure. Thus Ayurveda is a highly positive system of Medicine and Health Science.
