Five steps or Pancha Bhoota
In the previous pages we were discussing about the five steps for perfect health of the body and mind. Why are these five steps suggested and what is the basis for these steps?
We identified that these five steps are similar to the five elements of nature. According to the Indian Vedic tradition there are five principles or causal factors for nature. These five causal factors are called as Bhoota - Pancha Bhoota.
"Pancha" in Sanskrit means five and "Bhoota" means elements or causal factors. Our human body is also made of these five causal factors. Imbalance of these five elements results in improper functioning of the body. Restoring these five elements in proper balance restores health.
Using the five elements or Pancha Bhootas in its original form or its principle idea, we have devised this Pancha Bhoota Healing system. The logic of the system revolves around cleansing and maintenance of the body and mind. Like the body mind connection the five elements of nature are connected. We are inseparable from nature as mind and body relationship. When this relationship is disturbed diseases of mind and body manifest immediately or lately.
Prevention is Better than Cure
The information about holistic health care is found in many ancient Indian texts in both Sanskrit and Tamil languages. However we will quote here from the Tamil text.
"Vidiyir Kaalai Thuyil Ezhunthu Neer Maanthi,
paiya Nadanthu, uzhaipirkku yerkka Unavarundhil
Nedu naal uikkumae udal".
- Arasan Shanmuganar (Tamil Nadu, India)
This means
GETTING UP EARLY IN THE MORNING ,
GULPING WATER, HAVING A SLOW AND STEADY WALK AND
EATING ACCORDING TO ONE'S OWN PROFESSION
IS THE SECRET OF MAINTAINING HEALTHY BODY (and Mind).
- Arasan Shanmuganar (Tamil Nadu, India)
Healer, Arasan, has given the essence of the five steps of healing in his quote.
These five steps are like the five elements (ingredients) of nature and also of our body. Using these five steps we are integrating the five elements in our body for health of body and mind.

The 5-Elements Healing
| 2. Fat Soluble Toxins: - Earth Therapy |
|
Some times the liver may not be able to convert a chemical completely into water soluble form. The liver produces a body soap called bile. The fat soluble toxins easily gets dissolved in the bile and flows through the gall bladder into the small intestines. In the intestine the bile is re-absorbed, while the toxins get mixed with fiber in the food and get excreted. However due to our wrong life style of eating refined foods that are less in fiber, makes the toxins also to be re-absorbed into the body again. Over time the toxins builds up in different parts of the body and damages the genes of the cells and other components of the cells causing various diseases. Therefore the next important step is to get rid of the fat soluble toxins in the body. 1. We recommend to eat more of fiber rich food. The more we eat fiber rich food our system gets cleansed of the toxins. 2. To get rid of the toxins faster we recommend the patients to do castor oil cleansing or herbal cleansing with a very ancient herb "kadukka", depending upon the condition of the patient. |
| Body Mind Co-ordination: - Fire Therapy |
To completely get rid of the water soluble and fat soluble toxins from the body, there should be good circulation of heat throughout the body. This heat is the Fire element. Heat is circulated through blood and lymph, the circulatory system and the lymphatic system. However this involves the aspect of mind because, the Mind is the seat of action or motion and there should be the co-ordination of the mind and the body. This is the purpose of Yoga which means to unite.
We suggest simple Yoga exercises which improves blood, lymphatic and air circulation in the body helping in complete detoxification process.

The five steps for health
In the previous page we read that
Healer Arasan has given the essence of five steps for healing in his quote. Observe the words of this ancient quote which has tremendous health value.
These five steps are like the five elements (ingredients) of nature and also of our body. Using these five steps we are integrating the five elements in our body for health of the body and mind in our daily life.
He recommends getting up early in the morning and doing water therapy every day. Water element is recommended as the first step because our body is really a bag of water - 73% water. This means a 200 pound (100 kg) person really has 146 pounds (73 kg) of water. No wonder water is the best cleaning agent because you are replacing every day fresh water in your body like changing water in a fish tank or an aquarium.
The healer then recommends early morning walk as the most suitable exercise for the body (Fire element). Walking in the morning is energetic and helps one to breathe good fresh air (Air element). Walking in the morning is very relaxing (Space element) to the mind.
Food is the Earth element. Eating to ones own profession is the key to health. If one's job is sedentary naturally one requires only less calories of food as opposed to one who has to eat more to meets the energy demands of a profession involving physical work. When it comes to money we spend more than income. But we do the reverse when it comes to eating and exercising. We spend less (exercise) than our income (eating). This leads to over weight and all other physical ailments.
Next we will show the page-links in the web site about the five steps or Bhootas, the five elements.

Pancha Bhoota Healing
The 5 Element Healing
The end products of various metabolic reactions become toxic to the body and are mostly water soluble. Every night we undergo a fasting period (no food or drink is consumed) , until the next day when we break the fast with "breakfast".
| 1. Water soluble Toxins: - Water Therapy |
During this fasting period, thirty trillion cells in the human body spit out toxic metabolic wastes into our bloodstream. Water Therapy means drinking water first thing in the morning, to the fullest capacity of our stomach. The capacity of our stomach is 1.5 liters (0.396 gallons, 1.58 quarts, 3.2 pints ,or 6.3 cups).
Drinking this much water all at once cleanses the stomach and intestines, the blood and all organs, rejuvenating them, removing all water soluble toxins from them in the form of urine. It is interesting to note that many diseases have been healed just by removing the water soluble toxins from our body.
However, by removing water soluble toxins alone we cannot clear all diseases. Fat soluble toxins might be needed to be removed to bring about complete healing.
| 2. Fat Soluble Toxins: - Earth Therapy |
|
If you want to clean a cloth, rinsing it in water alone will not help. Because, with water only water soluble toxins will be removed. Fat soluble toxins or greasy toxins must be removed with soap. Our body similarly removes fat soluble toxins through a soap it manufactures called bile. Bile has two functions, one of which is to emulsify the fats and make it easy for digestion. The liver detoxifies all the toxins that enter the body. It converts chemicals into water soluble chemicals so that the kidneys can throw these out of the body through urine. This is where water therapy helps the liver and kidneys to do their jobs more effectively. |

The 5-Steps Healing
1. Water Therapy
Water is the most abundant element in our body. 72% of our body is made of water. Water in our body serves many different purposes. Apart from circulating nutrients throughout the body in the form of blood, it also distributes the heat in the body. The major function of water is to remove all waste materials from the body. The waste materials include chemicals from the various metabolic reactions of the body and also chemicals which are introduced through the food we eat. Taking water to be an important component of the body can lead to curing of diseases. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-long-can-the-average/
2.Earth (Food) Therapy
Food is nourishing to both body and mind. Complete food keeps the body healthy and free from all diseases. This is achieved by eating in moderate amounts of a variety of foods, which include fruits, vegetables, grains, pulses, seeds, nuts, leaves etc. All diseases arise due to improper quantity and quality of foods. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-long-can-a-person-survive-without-food/?redirect=1
3.Fire Therapy
Heat or fire keeps the body physiologically active. Heat is given out as one of the end product of the biochemical reactions that occur in our body. Exercise increases various metabolic reactions in the body. The heat produced during increased metabolic reactions drive blood circulation and indirectly help in the removal of toxins and waste materials from the cells. Yoga is the best form of exercise to meet this requirement since it consciously exercises every part of the body and involves both the mind and the body.
4.Air Therapy
We never breathe to the full capacity of our lungs. Due to various reasons there is in-equal distribution of oxygen in different organs resulting in diseases of that particular organ. Pranayama (a breathing exercise) helps one breathe fully. This exercise improves oxygen supply to all cells of the body especially to those of the brain. Oxygen supply to the cells rejuvenates them and enhances their functioning. This in turn helps in the removal of waste from the body, which enables the healing force to work without any blockages.
5.Space Therapy
We are always concentrating on our external body and all the things around us. Focus is never given to our interior body unless we fall sick. Getting connected to our own being is achieved through meditation (awareness of one's own self). This brings wholeness not only to the mind but also to the body, because they are both connected. Getting connected to our own being in this way, at the subtlest level, nourishes and cleanses our mind and the body.
