Please accept my obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada !

I have seen your site over the years, and your formulas look excellent. Who has helped you to formulate them ?

Someone should fix the Comment back button so you can see the orignal message so it can be answered fully.

I was told by a naturopath, that I have congested lymph glands, that my hormes are imbalanced and that I have chronic low agni, stomache or digestive problems.

You should get a Full Body Vibration machine for your health, it will help with many of your health problems. Like the Crazy Fit on ebay for only about $300

Dear Gaura Das,

I studied the Charaka Samhita and many other books as well for years. I also studied many formulation books put out by Ayurvedic Companies before creating my own line of products. The conclusion was that no one really follows the traditional recipes as many of the herbs are no longer available or the strength of the herbs has depleted in the kali yuga. Also over the past 20 or 30 years there has been much more research on the benefit of many herbs not used back than so I have put together very effective formulas based upon the past and present knowledge. All the companies in India also have there own formulas based upon what they think is best. Even the way they make the concentrated extracts now adays is much better than the old ways of cooking the herbs for hours and days because that destroy's many of the active ingredients. I created my formuals while living in the Zurick Temple but I started when I was in the Honolulu Temple. Astrologers have told me I have been doing this for many life times as it came very natural to me.

Kind Regards and Hari Bol. Lakshman
