Life Without Medicine
At a time when there is an increasing dependency on extensive and expensive investigative tests and the use of medicines for treating even small ailments, the idea of a “Life Without Medicine” may sound far-fetched and even hard to believe.We at Sumiran have a reason to believe otherwise. A healthy bout of pure air, mineral-rich water, exposure to abundant sunlight, farm-fresh organic food, and natural workout on the farms gave us some memorable insights about being ailment-free. It whispered in our ears that we have only one disease – Nature Deficit Disorder. It also gave us insights on how mind, body, and spirit strike a balance for inner peace & joy. We love to share this perspective as an organized course called “Life Without Medicine”.
Life Without Medicine is not just a concept but a proven health empowerment program. What began as a self-prescribed and practiced lifestyle for many doctors of Team Sumiran, including Dr. Ranjana Garg (MBBS, DCH), Dr. Monika Gupta (MBBS), and their families, is now a proven successful lifestyle correction program. Till date, it has benefitted more than 1000 participants belonging to all age groups – with or without a medical history.
The Life Without Medicine program is not a disregard for medicine. It is an easy-to-understand, follow, and implement lifestyle, based upon the six vital elements of life made available to all by nature – Air, Nutrition, Sunlight, Water, Exercise, and Rest; in short, an ANSWER.
History
From early years at medical school, mentors of Team Sumiran were curious to study and research chemical versus organic modes of farming and living. They found a strong correlation between how humans, over the last 50 years, have diminished the nutritional and healing capacity of our food by injecting too many medicines into the soil, and how modern medical science has diminished the self-healing capacity of our bodies by indiscriminate use of medicines.Over subsequent years, we gathered enough evidence that overdependence on allopathic medicines is creating the same kind of problems for human health as those created by excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides on soil and crops. During their very successful medical profession, they noticed many serious shortcomings of the modern, so-called scientific approach to restoring health and well-being. Over time, they became sure that they had found a deep insight into a new way of living and healing the human body. Being experimenters and researchers that they are, they decided to try everything they believed in on themselves and their families first before they could announce it to the world. The team has to their credit being the prime mover of the first village practicing organic farming in the country in 2003.
So, in 2006, Dr. Monika & Rajesh Gupta with Team Sumiran purchased a large tract (300 acres) of barren land near Bhopal, and they started living and practicing what they all believed was a natural and healthier way to live. Slowly the word spread around. First, only a few friends and relatives came to their home (now called SUMIRAN Eco Village). The results for those who came were so encouraging that just by word of mouth, many inquiries from all over the world started pouring in. In 2018, they decided to not limit the benefits of these findings to themselves, their families, and a few patients, but to take them to every individual in society, and hence a four-day immersion program called Life Without Medicine Program was born.
Overview of Contents

The inimical style of explaining the most difficult medical terms through similes, satire, layman stories, and jokes makes every lecture a memorable and enjoyable one. A farmer and a PhD participant attending the same class can relate and understand what is being said with the same ease and clarity. That is how well-versed and deep Team LWM’s hold on the subject is. Every participant feels and connects with the clarity and conviction with which Team LWM expresses themselves, probably because that clarity is born out of living what they are preaching.
SUMIRAN is now growing as a self-evolving community in which Team LWM is also expanding, adding new dimensions to it.
