Prime Minister Narendra Modi marked a historic occasion by addressing Arya Vaidya Sala’s centenary in Kerala, celebrating its enduring legacy in Ayurveda’s preservation and advancement. Remembering founder Vaidyaratnam P.S. Varier’s profound vision, Modi said his passion for public good lights the path forward.
This Kerala powerhouse represents India’s timeless healing ethos, unbound by era or region. It has illuminated paths to vitality through nature-aligned balance. Boasting production of 600+ remedies and far-reaching hospitals serving global patients, Arya Vaidya Sala has earned unshakeable faith. Its 100-year charitable mission thrives on the collective spirit of its team—from vaidyas to caregivers.
Modi spotlighted policy shifts: from marginalization to mainstream integration via AYUSH Ministry. Initiatives like National AYUSH Mission birthed 12,000 wellness hubs. Sector growth shines in doubled exports to Rs 6,500 crore, empowering farmers and exporters.
Challenges persist, including proving Ayurveda’s efficacy via research papers and scientific scrutiny. Modi urged embracing AI for proactive health solutions and hybrid treatments.
Ultimately, his message champions Arya Vaidya Sala as Ayurveda’s vanguard, urging modernization to amplify its global healing impact.
