Varma Kalpa Rejuvenation Center is mainly focused on spreading the Varman System of Healing to the world. This has been initiated with the task of educating people about this system for the past few years In our maiden publishing venture we have tried to share the knowledge of Varmam science which is a wonderful healing system that can be integrated with any other sciences related to health.

Our content of this book is derived from two of the literary works from the manuscripts namely, Varma Bheerangi - 100 and Varma Kannaadi - 500. It also brings out the knowledge obtained from several Aasaans regarding the same. We are hopeful that this would be our first positive step towards sharing more information, views, opinions, clinical trials and experiences on a wider platform.

Veni B lyer We hope that our contribution towards Varmam really support or induce or induct the people who are in the quest for knowledge related to health and healing, and also those who have been never aware of Varmam to understand and take it up further in the domain of education, research practice, etc.

Varmam is an ancient, inherent and intuitive practice of healing that was prominent long before the advent of medicines and therapies, which arrived much later, comparatively recently. Its systematic applications have been documented by sages and gurus in ancient Tamil manuscripts. All the time, human beings perform 'varmam' stimulation of some kind or the other on themselves or on another person without conscious knowledge of what and why it's being done.

It has been experienced that Varmam can be successfully integrated and is capable of coexisting very well with any of the other healing systems that are part of the 'AYUSH' (Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, Siddha and Homeopathy). Siddha Varmam is practiced in common. Similarities have been observed between many of the Indian or Asian Healing Systems which are speculated to have probably incubated from Varmam.

This book is the result of a synthesis carried out by the authors on the Varmam points documented in two books, "Varma Bhecrangi - 100' and 'Varma Kannaadi - 500' written by different authors.

Consolidation of these two books which are themselves derived from various manuscripts, which are very valuable treasures in the Tamil literature regarding the Varmam Therapy and system of medicine, is presented in this book. We have tried to congregate details regarding various aspects of the system like the locations or varmam points, nomencla- ture, signs and symptoms of injury to varmam points, relieving techniques in case of trauma or injury, time windows within which relief has to be given and after which treatment should not be tried, therapeutic benefits of each location and stimulation techniques. Varma Bheerangi- 100' and 'Varma Kannaadi- 500' are readable Tamil derivatives from ancient manuscripts from which we have sincerely attempted to derive and deliver details to the best possible accuracy. In case of any discrepancies we are open to any suggestions and it would be our pleasure and grateful endeavor to incorporate them in the book's next revision. Please note that the comparative study is only on the individual "Varmam' and its definitions.

If any content within this book, provides food for thought or allows anyone to initiate a dialogue which identifies with the reader's information and previous knowledge about Varmam, they are most welcome to approach the authors with substantial evidence or proof.

By this exercise, it is meant to include all existing knowledge about this waning science as a whole, wherein their contribution would be added into the next revision of the book, with due credits, thereby enriching society's knowledge bank, and making it an error free source and authority on the subject to the society in due course of time.

In the traditional medical practice systems of the world, the Siddha Medicine plays a divine and vital role. The belief in immortality is the first instiner to keep the body healthy or disease-free, The technical knowledge of uniting with the higher soil for integesting the world into the universal soul has been embodied within the Siddhs system.

Just like the rivers, streams and sea flow into a vast ocean, there are several systems of healing approaches that are engulfed by the Siddha System of Medicine. A few of them would be, Yogic Medicine, Natural Medicine, Poisonous Medicine, Alchemy Medicine, etc. Similarly, Varmam System of Healing also engulfs several subjects and is the crown of the Siddha System of Medicine.

There is intricate knowledge regarding Varmam System which includes vast topics such as Varma Yogam, Varma Jnanam or knowledge of inner consciousness and others, that are available in abundance.

These facts are all hidden treasure which has not been exposed to the world and is at the verge of extinct and has been neglected without knowing the value of it either due to ignorance or due to restricted personal self defined boundaries. Varman is still used in villages, certain societies, temples and other places this is practiced to uproot and disconnect all feelings towards the body, eradicate diseases from human life using unique Varma Technology. Also used for self defense, fractures, bone settings and curing wounds and trauma.

Inspire of many aasaans being there who are preserving and preaching the art of Varmam, there is a dearth for people who can add life to this art of relieving, rejuvenate, and give it back to the society, There are very few countable number of people who have completely learnt and mastered the art of Varmam system of healing, the location of the points, medicinal preparations and applied system of adangal. Under there circumstances there are very few who want to share the knowledge that they have acquired, teach and propagate the knowledge to more and more people. The author falls into such category, who wants to spread this rare and ancient knowledge not only to the Tamilians but beyond the boundaries of the country, to the world by bringing it out in English which definitely has a wider audience. The step he has taken deserves twin appreciation.

This book work represents a great deal of effort that has gone into the detailed discussion on Varmam medicine, including an easy to read approach without any confusion, each one varmam and its relation with reference to another, ways of relieving the effects of injury at a point, etc with reference from the actual lyrical expressions from the literary works. The author needs a pat on the back for explaining Varmam in a simple language so that it becomes useful in research works at a later level.

I congratulate the author who is also my student, for bringing out powerful expressions and ideologies and strong positive feelings, beautifully the numerous intricacies about the Varmam System, and presenting it in a way that a layman can understand the same and explore it further. I bless him that his effort shine like the moonlight with the feminine knowledge of the Shakthi and shine bright like the sun rays in the world audience that he has got now. 1, Varma Aasaan Dr. V. Ganapathy strongly believe that the system of Varmam is a spiritual path by itself and is not just an ability to treat, it also includes love, intelligence, feelings, knowledge, energy, ability to identify the problem.

The author is one of the few people who gives life to my belief and is struggling to get Varmam to the worlds' recognition.

Varmam' is an ancient art and science of healing from the land which forms present day region of Tamil Nad southern India, with supposed roots in the area of Kanyakumari. It uses touch, pressure, and even a focused visione points of the patient's body to regulate subtle energy fields, thereby impacting the human body and its systems in certai ways, and influencing it to react in favourable manner so as to heal holistically: It is really a matter of great concern in today's fast-paced world, that India in general has gradually lost, and severed on own, the firm roots of many of its ancient sciences, arts, languages and traditional practices. Though the outer world has started accepting and learning many of these today, as can be seen in the hordes of westerners thronging to learn Yog Ayurveda and Vipassana in Mysuru, Hrishikesh, Igatpuri, Dharamshala, etc., Indians themselves are a bit skeptical about leaning towards or learning from their past, rich heritage. Application of these practices at home, which was the norma one point of time, has come to an almost abrupt end.

It has come to a stage where "Varmam', a science dealing with rejuvenation of the body, mind and soul as a whole needs rejuvenation today. Varma Kalpa Rejuvenation Center has taken upon itself the mantle of rejuvenating this science and has been operating since the last couple of years with this sole mission. Our endeavor is to revive this ancient science and bring it to not only the people of India but the entire world and showcase its prowess in healing and well-being of all mankind.

Leading as such mechanical lives, most of us lose focus as to what it is that ultimately each one of us is looking for Happiness, health and satisfaction, which comes from the coordination between the soul, mind and body, and finally the resultant inner peace. It is due to lack of this coordination that most of us differ vastly in speech and action, planning and implementation, the list goes on.

"Varmam', as a science focuses on all these three aspects, with emphasis on the path traversed by the soul, which is the source of all energy across the body. It has been proved by many studies of Aasaans, past and present that, during this journey, the soul resides for some time at certain points, using these stops as bays for energizing the body. This path is traced and used for diagnosis, treatment and relieving people of their pain, through the science and practice of "Varmam It is to be noted however that, during the process, communication with the soul, if interrupted, creates health challenges.

The main objective behind bringing out this book is to enhance the reach of the science of Varmam' as much as possible, to a larger and wider audience than at present. This would enable us to learn more about ourselves, our own bodies, minds and souls, thereby presenting us better chances of coordination between our mind, body and soul thereby creating harmony with nature as a whole.
