Since its foundation 24 years ago, more than 25,000 patients from all over the world have been treated at the clinic, which has won numerous awards worldwide. The Indian Minister and his team were extremely impressed by the high standards of the private clinic, as well as by Häckers Grandhotel and the beautiful spa architecture of the charming spa town on the River Lahn.

The conference, organized by the EAA in cooperation with the Indian government, was attended by about 50 renowned Ayurveda speakers.

Dr. Girish Momaya, Director of MERU, Netherlands, secretary of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi for more than 30 years, presented to the minister and the congress participants the uniqueness of the consciousness-based approach of Maharishi Ayurveda and Maharishi’s great contribution to spread Ayurveda in the world. Dr. Walter Mölk, Director of the International Maharishi Ayurveda Foundation, Netherlands, spoke on the subject: Is the Veda the blueprint of the human body and even more basic than the DNA?
