Masters in Counseling Psychology
and Co-Founder of the Dhanvantari Ayurveda Center

Ayurvedic Medicine in Berkeley and San Francisco Bay Area, East Bay Ayurvedic Practitioners: Lord Dhanwanthari - Master Ayurvedic Healer - God of Medicine. OM DHANVANTARAYE NAMAHA: Painting by Jaya Rama Dasa (1977) oil on canvas, for illustration in Shrimad Bhagavatam Copyright BBTI. Dhanvantari Lord of Ayurvedic Healing. According to the Puranas this incarnation of Vishnu was a ruler of Benares who originated a universally effective system of traditional herbal medicine. He holds a golden leech (symbolic of blood purification) and a medicinal plant in his right hand, and the conch of wisdom and pot of rejuvenating nectar in his left. The tulsi-seed mala around his neck, plant-wreath halo, and his sometimes blue-tinted skin emphasize his connection to Vishnu the Preserver. The origins of the ancient healing science known as Ayurveda are lost in cosmic antiquity. According to the ancient text Caraka-samhita, this "Science of Life and Longevity" is eternal and is revealed in each universe in each of its infinite cycles of creation and destruction. This healing science is generally revealed by great sages or demigods. Occasionally, the Supreme Lord Himself descends as the avatara (incarnation) Dhanvantari and re-inaugurates the tradition of Ayurveda. This extremely rare appearance of God is recorded in the Vedic literature of ancient India. Dhanvantari's appearance is celebrated each year on the 13th day (trayodasi) of the waxing moon a few days before the Divali festival in October or November of each year.

Ordained Minister / Pastoral Counselor at the Medicine Buddha Healing Center and Student of Ammachi

An ordained Minister at the Medicine Buddha Healing Center, Vijaya studied Hinduism philosophy with the Mata Amritanandamayi Devi. With her simple acts of Love, Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, AMMA, is the spiritual teacher of Vijaya Stallings.

"Hugs and pats on the back and kisses on the head and chucks on the chin. For free. No strings attached. And nothing creepy.  Her name is Mata Amritanandamayi, but most people call her Amma, Ammachi, or simply, Mother. She's a 47-year-old Hindu holy woman from the Kerala state in India who, for the last dozen years or so, has been coming to the United States each summer to hug people. Many who have been held in her arms say it's a healing embrace. Sometimes the healing is physical, they say. More often, it's emotional and spiritual. In India, where she runs an 800-bed hospital and other charities as Mother Teresa did, Ammachi sometimes hugs as many as 18,000 people in what for her is a typical 20-hour day, according to her US spokesman, Rob Sidon. She has hugged thousands of people on her trips to the Chicago area over the last decade."  
-- June 29, 2001 from the Chicago Sun Times article entitled: "Path to Spiritual Healing may be a Free Hug Away".

For more information on Ammachi and her philosophy, call the Mata Amritanandamayi Center in California at (510) 537-9417, or visit www.amachi.org or www.amritapuri.org.

Ayurvedic Health Consultations

If you have a health problem and want an alternative solution, or if you are healthy and want to know your body/mind type and how to maintain your health, an Ayurvedic Consultation will provide the knowledge you seek.
Vijaya will read your pulse and assess your life patterns from an Ayurvedic long-term perspective and recommend a diet, daily routine and individualized herbal formula to achieve your optimum health and energy level.

Tibetan and East Indian Ayurveda is traditionally used to increase energy and mobility, improve digestion and elimination, remove depression, decrease pain, and restore the balance of the internal systems, the mind, emotions, and consciousness. After the initial consultation, checkups are generally every 30 days until balance is restored.

Ask about the time-honored Indo-Tibetan Ayurvedic approach to arthritis, sciatica, neck and shoulder pain, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, depression, anger, insomnia, allergies, colds, flu, cough, asthma, constipation, chronic diarrhea, high blood pressure and cholesterol, ulcers, skin disorders, low libido, impotence, weight loss, diabetes, gynecological disorders, menopause, pregnancy.

Clinical Background in Tibetan Ayurvedic Medicine

Vijaya's 12 years of study and practice of the healing arts also included Tibetan Medicine theory and practice with the H.H. Dalai Lama’s past personal physician Monk Doctor Lobsang Rapgay, previously a doctor at the Tibetan Medicine & Astro Institute in the Himalayas (www.tibetan-medicine.org).  Those interested in Tibetan Medicine should note that the Medicine Buddha Healing Center will be sponsoring a one week workshop on by Tibetan Doctor Kelsang Dorje of the Tibetan Medicine and Astro Institute in September 2002. Dr. Dorje was one of Losang Jinpa's teachers.  It was from Dr. Rapgay that Vijaya learned the art of Tibetan Massage and Pancha Karma therapeutic cleansing and revitalization massage.  Dr. Rapgay also passed his methods of traditional Tibetan Five Element Pulse Diagnosis to Vijaya.

The Tibetan Ayurvedic Science of Healing has been taught and practiced through Central Asia for at least 1100 years. This unique traditional system of healing is integrated with the Buddhist concept of mind and body its philosophy and healing techniques continue to be practiced in a coherent and powerful manner. This is an effective, natural and inexpensive method of improving both physical and mental health.

Vijaya makes traditional Tibetan Ayurvedic customized herbal formulas, and herbal healing massage oils from different Indo-Tibetan herbs and minerals. His products balance physical and mental energies promoting relaxation and free flow of qi and prana.

Qualities looked for in a Physician as outlined in the Root Tantra of Tibetan Medicine

  • An analytical mind with some intuitive knowledge

  • Exhibit compassion and possess a good heart

  • Exhibit respect for medical ethics and a commitment to the profession

  • Exhibit no revulsion when seeing bodily fluids

  • Consider all medicines and medical scriptures as wish fulfilling jewels, including blessings according to proper rituals

  • Must have patience in body speech and mind

  • Exhibit a continued effort to learn and gain experience

  • Their manner should be gentle and contented and helpful toward the destitute

  • The physician should know by heart the causative factors of diseases and their proper treatment.

The definition of the physician is one who heals all pain and practices medicine to promote good health. It is noted in the text that the concentration required when seeing a patient is the same as the concentration needed by a person walking on a wall with a bowl of milk and butter on his head, threatened with death if a single drop is spilled.
