Among all the selfless desires cherished by human race,
there are very few which have remained constant since eternity and one of those
is the desire to have healthier offspring in terms of body as well as mind.
Every generation wishes well for the next generation and wants them to be healthy,
wealthy, safe and happy.
As much as we want to leave a better planet for our
children, the reality is that the planet and the environment is increasingly
becoming more and more hostile because of the lifestyle we, as human beings,
have espoused. The impact of mining, power generation, transportation, air
conditioners and so many other industries is catastrophic on environment and
resulting in more and more contaminants and imbalances in the nature. But then,
this lifestyle cannot be overturned suddenly so that leaves us with the only option
of preparing and building ourselves and our kids strong against such threats.
There is another aspect of immunity which we must think
about for our kids. The immunity of body against the viruses and bacteria is
important but equally important is to immune them against the base thoughts
which are corrupting the minds of tiny ones. The lack of respect for women and
elders, the power of money, the arrogance, violence and so many other such
wrong notions are attacking the fledgling minds of our youngsters and so it
becomes our responsibility to protect our children from that as well.
Thankfully immunizing the body is easy because nature itself
provides the solution in form of herbs and plants. The rishis of old times have
found the right herbs for us and we have preserved this knowledge in the form
of Ayurveda. Chyawanprash is one such Ayurvedic mixture of herbs which is extremely
effective in strengthening the immune system and fighting all sorts of
bacteria, viruses and infections. It acts in a pre-emptive manner against
illnesses rather than trying to curb illness after it has occurred like the
medicines work.
It was recently in news that a research has found that the
allopathic medicines are becoming less effective against the more powerful
drug-resistant bacteria and viruses spawning in the environment. That makes a
product like Dabur Chyawanprash even more relevant and important and should be
consumed regularly. It is an outstanding brew of all the natural herbs and has
got no side-effects, tastes good and so could be easily incorporated in anyone’s
even our kids’ daily diet.
Sadly there is no straightforward one teaspoon Chyawanprash twice a day like remedy for menaces
attacking young minds and we have to lead by example here to let our kids
inculcate the right values and way of living. We need heroes today more than
ever, we need more heroes like Sachin Tendulkar, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Narayanmurthy
who have worked extremely hard, got tremendous success but never let that
success or power go off their head. They are still humble, polite and good to
others. Sachin’s respect for his parents, family, friends and fans was so
evident and heart-touching in his retirement speech. We need to act in a same
manner and give our kids the right ideas that is work hard and no matter what,
respect and love everyone.
I feel the concept of Immune India could only be a reality
when both these goals are achieved that is providing our kids the right things
to eat as well as setting for them the right examples to follow. We need to
nourish the body as well as mind of our children. Let us start doing it right
from our home and society and make efforts towards realizing this dream of
Immune India for our lovely generations to come.
