Abstract:

Vedas contain ancient spiritual-ontological world views in which saints and sages passed on as “truths” to the next generations. The rise of Ayurveda is relatively recent though its holistic approach to human ‘wellness’ springs from ancient resources. Social Work as is a modern ‘profession’ though social welfare, primordially, has existed since times immemorial.
