Ayurveda and Nature Cure for Diabetes; Vigyan Bhairav Tantra in English

IndiaDivine.org
RemedySpot.com:
According to nature cure therapy, diabetes is the result of a problem in the digestive system. This can be overcome easily, and within a short duration of time, with regular practice of yoga, change in life style, daily routine and diet control. Generally, people engaged in sedentary work suffer from this disease. The insulin produced from the pancreas reduces both in quality and quantity, resulting in a high sugar level, and the excess glucose flows out through the urine.
 
IndiaDivine.org:
The Vigyan Bhairav Tantra is a key text of the Trika school of Kashmir Shaivism. Cast as a discourse between the god Shiva and his consort Devi or Shakti, it briefly presents 112 meditation methods or centering techniques (dharanas). These include several variants of breath awareness, concentration on various centers in the body, non-dual awareness, chanting, imagination and visualization and contemplation through each of the senses. A prerequisite to success in any of the 112 practices is a clear understanding of which method is most suitable to the practitioner.
