To evaluate the efficacy of the friendly 3-Dimensional Healthcare Model for Healthy Mind, Heart & Body, two multidisciplinary, prospective, randomized and controlled study studies, Mount Abu Open Heart Trial, and Abu Healthy Heart Trial in 518 CAD patients were started in February 1998 and May 2000 respectively. The subjects were angiographically documented CAD patients who were also suffering from various other lifestyle related disorders. Psychologists, physiologists, endocrinologists, cardiologists, clinicians, dietitians, fitness experts and spiritualists worked hand in hand for more than 25 years. We, at J. Watumull Global Hospital and Research Centre, Prajapita Brahma Kumari Ishwariya Vishwa Vidyalaya, Abu, collaborated with Defense Institute of Physiology and Allied sciences (DRDO), New Delhi. This project was sponsored by CCRYN, Ministry of Health and Family welfare, Govt. of India, New Delhi and Defense Research & Development Organization, New Delhi. The 3-Dimensional Healthcare model was put to test with very positive, encouraging, and remarkable results which have baffled health experts and patients alike. More than 10,000 Angiographically documented Coronary Heart patients could regress their coronary blockages as per program adherence. The pumping power of the heart (LVEF), which was thought to be an irreversible damage after a heart attack, improved significantly. All this was documented by repeat 2D Color Doppler Echocardiography and repeat angiography. The results of univariate analysis in these patients indicate that the angiographic changes were attributable to the decrease in weight, triglycerides, diet, exercise schedule and management of psychosocial stressors through Rajyoga Meditation. The multivariate analysis showed that the independent predictors of CAD regression were not change in weight and lipid parameters as such, but the management of psychosocial stressors through Rajyoga Meditation. The Rajyoga Meditation also motivated CAD patients to adhere more to the healthy diet, exercise, treatment schedules and smoking cessation.
This hypothesis was tested in more than 500 patients, who had angiographically proven coronary artery disease. Most of these patients advanced coronary artery involving all three heart arteries. These patients were tracked over a period of eight years by the Global Hospital and DIPAS (DRDO). I had an opportunity to be with the research group five times during the review process of heart patients (Dilwalas) who participated in this programme.
Heart discase & other related ailments have risen to astounding heights across the globe and India is fast becoming the Cardiac ailments capital of the world. In this one ofthe core area of concentration is prevention, in addition to the treatment modalities available. The epicentre of which is seen in leading a Stress-Free Life in the fast-paced development progress, globally. The key to leading a Stress-Free Life, apart from exercise and active life style, is mental wellbeing and spiritual development. Brahma kumaris is a universally renowned institute in imparting this enlightening message to the society for decades and has developed a wonderful program "3D Healthcare for Healthy heart" coupled with the strong message of spiritual quest, that is the key to the overall well-being along with diet & nutrition.
This cardiovascular intervention is most convincing and cheapest. It has absolutely state of God. Almost all western world interventions and have not been that much successful because lack of spirituality. They include only exercise and drugs. This is most impressive reaching maximum reduction in blockages & other parameters. This is one of the most cost effective trends for the community. Mr. Prasanna Hota, Secretary, Health & Family Welfare, India: Along with growing cconomie prospority, health issues like diabetes and cardiovascular are also increasing, and bypass and other heroic inreventions are not cost effective for everybody. By adopting healthy life style one can avoid bypass. I saw some angio evidences with melted or cleared blockages by simpler & honest lifestyle with Meditation added along with exercise and diet. Dr. Satish Gupta's regiment could be part of our public health. Our Ministry is very keen that he sets up heart care foundation with Govt. to create awareness in medical fraternity and civic society. I am personally in favor because it is cost effective and simple technique, and it is not a religious movement.
