Dedicated to my Maa and Baba
God gave us the gift of life; it is up to us
to give ourselves the gift of living well.
Voltaire
T his book gives a remarkably profound account of how life should be lived as one grows olderan exposition of what the author calls: the art of longevity. Most individuals, including doctors, believe that good health means absence of disease or infirmity. The annual physical health check sought by so many in hospitals in this country is testimony to this statement. But good health is much more than the absence of diseaseit is a state of physical, mental and social well-being. This holistic view of good healthstressed remarkably enough in our ancient Ayurveda as the way and means of achieving and preserving health in the true sense of the wordhas been ably expounded by the author in this book. The objective is to enter the twilight of ones life, happy, healthy and active with continued interest in people, the environment and world events.
The book is in three partsthe role of the mind, the body and the spirit in preserving health and achieving longevity.
The mind is extremely important, and a great deal of research carried out on the mind-body complex has confirmed that the mind influences the body both in health and in disease. The author stresses the importance of not having a fixed mindset but a mindset that changes and adapts to past and present experiences, and to new challenges in life. A plastic mindset, as she terms it, allows one to grow mentally, learn new skills, form new neural networks and interconnections so that the brain remains agile, young and healthy. Self-awareness and mindfulness, as she puts it, enables one to have an open mind to be more receptive to different views and perspectives, so that one has more choices to respond to in any given situation.
Among the many other aspects discussed in relation to the mind, I as a physician feel that cultivating a sense of compassion is the most important as it cleanses and purifies the mind. It is the quality that enables one to feel the suffering of any individual. It involves giving oneself to another human being in need; it also encompasses faith, hope and charity. The concept of self-compassion is new and interestingit means it is wise not to be too hard, too unforgiving and perhaps too demanding on oneself.
There are many other attributes that contribute to a healthy mindcheerfulness, optimism, altruism and equanimity. In contrast, anger, envy, anxiety and jealousy are the harbingers of disease.
I endorse the authors view of the vital need to cultivate important mental attitudes of life, because the mind controls the body. A healthy mind in a healthy body is an age old adage. This not only helps and contributes to longevity, but to longevity which is joyous, happy and interesting.
The second part of the book deals with the body. The author elaborates on the ways and means which in her opinion can preserve and enhance physical well-being, laying stress on exercise (including the practice of yogic asanas and pranayama), diet and the importance of adequate sleep. She also discusses other aspects that contribute to good physical health. These are informative and instructive, particularly to the lay person.
