The main aim of these institutions is to make money by performing as many bypass surgeries or angioplasties, because these operations only can earn astronomical amount of money. Estimations of Rs. 3 Lacs to Rs. 5 Lacs for one such operation are not uncommon.

In these hospitals, necessary and unnecessary investigations or tests are also performed as a secondary source of revenue. Every cardiologist sends for a battery of investigations.

Yoga teaches guidelines and values to follow, and practices for purification for the body, mind and spirit. The earliest text with just a hint of the guidelines for the yogic tradition is the Vedas, the sacred canon of Hinduism, dating back some 3000 years to 1500BC. The Vedas explore the possibilities of the human spirit and of the energy and powers in the universe, and discuss the purpose and meaning of life. The roots of yoga evolved from the spiritual and metaphysical disciplines of the Vedas and the Upanishads, a sacred text from near 600 BC. Yoga however rejects the pursuit of metaphysics, and sticks to the practical path of transcending the ego in order to awaken the center self, the pure being of consciousness and awareness.

The same is expected to touch 10 crores by the year 2010. Although accurate figures may not be available due to a variety of reasons like non-reporting of deaths., lack of diagnosis in many who suddenly die or do government mechanism (who can collect data from the cardiologists) to count them and so on, the fact remains that the numbers are racing up. Few sample studies of small groups in Rajasthan, Delhi and Kerala show that number of coronary heart patients have doubled (2% to 4%) in villages whereas in cities there has been a three-fold increase (3.45% to 9.45%) from 1960-90. In Kerala the number of heart patient are even higher (13% in the cities and 7% in the villages). This is mostly due to high consumption of coconut oil. It is estimated that about 25-30 la...
