Everyone knows the causes of his/her illness and stress because we are borne with that gift. Some have natural talent for it, but majority of us have to relearn, to remember how to treat ourselves naturally. If we are tired of all treatments, and are full of enthusiasm for a healthy life, then SWABHAVIK BUDDI or OZA (the inner healing force) reveals it and our inner sprit changes its direction to a healthy life style. Everyone, without exception, needs to see the connecting threads that exist between their disease and their way of living- that thread is called SWABHAVIK BUDDI or OZA (inner healing force) in Ayurveda.

This OZA or the thinking immune system that the body is blessed with knows how to discriminate between a friendly bacteria and unfriendly bacteria, between pathological chemicals and harmless chemicals. When the body encounters a bacterium for the first time, despite never having encountered it before, it is reminded of the first human encounter with bacterium in the evolutionary history of the species and makes the precise antibody for that bacterium. We name it SWABHAVIK BUDDI or OZA (inner healing force). The body naturally makes the right dose of antibodies at the right time, for the right organ, with no side effects. This capacity demonstrates the profound intelligence of the body. One might in fact say that our whole body is a field of intelligence.

The body needs to be cared for. In this day and age the body requires greater attention. It is to be remembered that who we are and what our body is are not really two separate things, but the manifestation of one. Our soul is our visible body and our body is our visible soul. Ayurveda teaches this unity, and with this unity, the human becomes whole. If our body is neglected, we will not be able to find inner harmony. It is a great gift. It is a miracle; a mystery.

According to scientists the body has millions and millions of living cells. Each cell has its own life. One can also approach the body and concentrate on questions like how the body turns bread into blood. We have not been able to find a factory where bread can be turned into blood yet. The body also sorts out what it needs and what it do not need. In turn that which is not needed is thrown out, and that which is needed is used and transformed for different functions.

A certain food is eaten and out of this food bones are formed, blood is produced, skin is made, eyes are made, our brain develops. The body knows perfectly well what is needed and where it is required. The blood continuously circulates and supplies particular chemicals to particular parts.

Amongst all of the above the body also knows how to prioritize. A first priority is always the brain. Thus if there is not enough oxygen, the body gives oxygen to the brain first. Other parts of the body are tougher and can wait a little while the brain cells which are not so tough receive 'priority treatment'. If oxygen be denied to the brain cells for six minutes they die, and once they are dead theses cells cannot be revived.
