Our Patron - Agasthiyar Muni
Agasthiyar Muni, often hailed as the Father of Indian Medicine, is the revered patron of our Centre. His profound influence and wisdom greatly inspired Ms. Gerdi, the founder of this institution, who deeply resonated with his teachings. Driven by this inspiration, she chose to name the hospital in honor of Agasthiyar.
Ms. Gerdi shared her journey with Agasthiyar’s teachings: “Several years ago, I encountered Agasthiyar’s message at the Palm Leaf Library. I learned two pivotal things: first, that my destiny was to establish a Child Care Centre in Agasthiyar’s homeland, India; and second, to create a space where the knowledge he imparted could be shared. In simple terms, true health can only be achieved when we nurture both a healthy body and a healthy mind.
Agasthiyar emphasized that cultivating a clear, positive mind is essential, free from negativity. Additionally, acquiring knowledge and education raises our consciousness, leading us towards perfect health. It is both my duty and my joy to honor Agasthiyar’s request. His guidance and wisdom are the foundation of this project. This institution is envisioned to be a beacon of strength for people of all cultures and religions. It is my dream that all who come here will live harmoniously and peacefully together.”
