(It''s practiced here as Maharishi Ayur-Veda, a version created by a council headed by the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, fonder of Transcendental Meditation, of TM.) To visit Our Company is to enter a zone of spacious timelessness. Its French country-style main building is truly luxurious, but not in the fleshpots sense; an elegant simplicity reigns throughout. Its sparely adorned halls and rooms are a quiet symphony of soft peach, white and sand hues. Huge, white shuttered windows look onto the estate''s tree-dotted lawns and large ornamental pond. My husband and I, slated for the tree-day Rejuvenation Program, began as all guests do- with a medical consultation. Yale-trained Chris quizzed us on our diets, daily routines and sleep habits, and performed a pulse diagnosis to pinpoint the valance of our doshas-the three biological principles that, according to Ayurveda, govern mind and body. The doshas are Vata (movement, nervous system), Pitta (metabolism, heat) and Kapha (structure, weight). Ayurveda''s adherents say that, left uncorrected, the body''s dosha imbalances and accumulated toxins can lead to illness and premature aging.
