International Ayurveda Competition 2019
On Saturday, 15 February 2020, starting at 12:45 pm, the 2020 International Ayurveda Competition will be held in unison in several locations in Romania and other countries. In Bucharest, the 2020 International Ayurveda Competition will be held at the hall in Oteșani 16, sector 2.
The event is organised by AMN-
The International Ayurveda Competition 2019 consists of 6 specific tests, each of which has more than one paper, testing the mastery of the three main types of ways of knowing that are described within the millennia-old tradition of Ayurveda: theoretical knowledge (apta), knowledge through perception (pratyaksha) and knowledge through deduction (anumana). A maximum score of 7000 points is awarded for each of the six tests. The marks awarded by default for participation only in the 6 tests in the competition are indicated by underlining.
All those who want to test their knowledge of Ayurveda from several branches of this ancient system are invited to participate in this International Ayurveda Competition 2019. The quizzes contain questions from different branches and areas of knowledge of the Ayurveda system. Organisational details on how to participate in this International Competition can be found on the website-
Bibliography for English language students
In order to have a common study and training base for English language students wishing to participate in the International Ayurveda Contest, on February 16, 2019, the bibliography from which questions will be asked for those taking part in the general test will be based only on certain fragments of the text of volume 1 of the book Ayurveda in Romania, a text that is available in both Romanian and English versions.
Tests 1 and 3 will include questions that are based on the presentation articles of the great ayurvedic sages Atreya, Bharadvaja and Sushruta, vol. 1, section 2, pages 71 to 100.
Test 2 will contain questions only from the illustrations of the Romanian and Indian medicinal plants in Volume 1, sections 3 and 4, from pages 101 to 200.
Tests 4, 5 and 6 will contain questions to which the answer can be given intuitively and correlatively, based on basic Ayurvedic knowledge.
In order to make the bibliography much more accessible to those who will participate in the contest, the articles have been posted to the following addresses:
