A friend of mine Dr.
Sankaran V.M. was an exceptionally brilliant student from
Kottakkal Ayurveda College
currently working in
Gonobiswabidyalay University in Dhaka. The
Bangla people are
patriotic and love their culture, language and
uniqueness. The medical College in Dhaka even have a subject called History of Medicine which gives some introduction to Ayurveda which we cannot dream in a
Kerala Medical College who are the biggest critics of
Ayurveda without making any attempt to learn or understand the basics of
Ayurveda.
Gonobiswabidyalay was magnanimous enough to offer Dr.
Sankaran do all
clinical research in
Ayurveda when
panchakarma procedures are in progress
adjacent to its Modern Medicine wing.
A
couple of years back Dr.
Sankaran was invited to present a paper on Ayurveda and he was shocked to see all his
research work done for years were stolen by someone and the same scientific work surfaced in the name of a Health Minister of another South Asian country who sometimes claims pioneers in taking
Ayurveda to the west.
I am publishing Dr.
Sankaran's clinical/laboratory works on myths and mysteries hovering around honey. This is an earnest attempt to navigate into a honeybee colony (beehive) to unearth the hidden truth.
