It is well known that Ayurveda is the Upaveda of Atharva veda. Veda is nothing but knowledge.

It gives me immense pleasure to shower the God's choicest blessings on my Son Krishnamurthy, who selected Ayurveda as a matter of interest during his carrier when he got the seats for other technical and professional courses. I am overwhelmed and gratification by his work and endeavors.

Being a traditional epic writer who practiced to inculcate in the field of Child literature, do not hope that I am a right person to foreword this text. But as a well wisher of Medicinal science, especially Ayurveda, I am very glad to foreword this, wishing bright carrier to my beloved son, Murthy.

May noble causes fulfilled by him in near future.
