Throughout my training, I have found the diseases of pancreas very festinating and at the same time challenging to diagnose and manage. My fascination with pancreas started even before entering medical school. One of my hobbies growing up was to read about alternative medicine in particular traditional Indian medicine. I remember I was mesmerized by the concept of the energy centers in the body or charkas as described in ancient Indian literature. Among the seven primary chakras I found the Manipura or Solar Plexus Chakra the most interesting. This is the chakra corresponding to the pancreas and is the only energy center in the body that spins in a counter-clockwise motion. Manipura has described to help to maintain the physical nature in balance with spiritual nature. |
