M2.2.2 Roga Nidana Vijnana training

This is an advanced training for students who have already completed the M2 Level 1 program with Vaidya Atreya Smith. Nidana is the study of disease and its manifestations. Specifically it is the study of causal factors for disease and develops all forms of diagnosis in Ayurveda. This training is taught as part of the Level 2 (M2 2.1) . In this training Vaidya Atreya uses the Nidana Sthana of Caraka Samhita to explain the detailed approach of disease formation.

M2.2.2 Roga Nidana Vijnana

Roga Nidana Vijnana training is based on the study of the 8 chapters of Nidana Sthana from the Caraka Samhita to explain the detailed approach to the cause and formation of disease. The aim of Pañca Nidāna is to use a variety of means to understand disease and its associated pathology. A single way of looking at pathology will not be sufficient, as it may miss the full circumstances of disease manifestation. Therefore, a comprehensive methodology is presented in five steps to establish a standard protocol in the analysis of Ayurvedic pathology. The training will take the form of a series of 8 online courses of 2 hours each.

To obtain certification, students must complete three case studies on three different patients (9 case studies in total). This is a compulsory module for the Swiss Federal Diploma.

This course is taught in English.
