A healthy body ensures a healthy life.
Editor’s NotesHere I submit the publication Robust Health (Udalurudi) at the lotus feet of the universal Goddess with the bliss of Aum Shuddha Shakti Aum. This book, which includes many rare, great topics such as the body’s birth, growth, organs, protection, disease prevention and cure, natural way of life, celibacy, the workings of the inner mind, the rare aspects of yoga, pranayama, practice of yoga and ways to make the body glow like diamonds, is the culmination of the author’s precious experiences. Written in pleasant, easy Tamil, translation by Savitri, with scientific commentaries, this book serves also as a guide to the literature available on natural sciences.The author of this book Swami Shuddhananda Bharati is well-known to the people and needs no introduction. I am blessed that the great sage who is engaged in deep meditation, has taken it upon himself to help enrich the scientific knowledge of researchers by writing not only philosophical books but also treatises on the sciences relating to the five natural elements and chemistry.This book Robust Health (Udalurudi) suffices to explain in detail the results of the author’s research experience and all reader can benefit immensely by reading it and adopting the practices mentioned. The author has also written books on geography, botany, zoology, physics and chemistry. We shall succeed with God’s grace.In the first publication, we have the foreword of the famous naturopath of Pondicherry, Sri K. Lakshman Sarma, B.A. B.L., N.D. We also convey our heartfelt gratitude to the Hon. Minister of Health Dr. T. S. S. Rajan in Chennai who encouraged the efforts to promote natural sciences. Also deeply grateful to the poet Sri Desika Vinayagam Pillai of Pondicherry who gave lavish praise to this book and wrote a special foreword for it. Thanks are also due to the naturopath Sri L.
