THE STORY
Hansa Thakral started her journey on the path of holistic healing by sheer coincidence. Her father, a patient of high blood pressure for 30 years, was suddenly bed-ridden following a stroke at the age of 70. Seeing no improvement from modern medicines, the family resorted to alternative healing therapies, Ayurveda to be more specific. Hansa witnessed tremendous progress in his health first-hand, which inspired her to learn more about the ancient holistic Science of Ayurveda from India.
However, being a mother of two growing children in Bangkok, going abroad to pursue this education was not an option at the time for her. Instead, Traditional Thai Medicines (TTM), which mainly derives from Indian Ayurvedic practices, seemed a viable option to get started in this direction. With vital zest, she sets off on her quest for knowledge. Little did she know that this leisurely pursuit would soon transpire into a profession! Being a Thai of Indian origin, Hansa very conveniently blended the two healing traditions and applied them in formulating oils and other home remedies for common ailments. She shared her healing remedies readily with near and dear ones. Positive feedback and repeat orders soon followed from family and friends leading to the birth of Ojas – Power of Purity, Thai Herbs with a touch of Ayurveda!
In Hansa’s own words "Ojas® is a fruit of painstaking and meticulous endeavour of my husband, Amar who applied the wisdom I learnt, creating a wide array of products which worked miraculously in healing as well as prevention. To spread this hidden wisdom and reach out to national as well as international audiences, we had to package and market our products in the right manner, meeting the needs of today’s demanding consumers. True to his name, Amar which is a hindi word meaning Eternal, my husband never gave up no matter how tough the obstacles ahead were. It took almost two years from coming up with a concept to finally implementing it but his strong will kept this project alive. The journey was an experience, meeting people I would have never met, learning and being inspired by individuals from all walks of life. Dr. Netredao Yuangsri is one such individual who was always there to guide and selflessly shared her knowledge with me, instilling in me the confidence of the power of holistic healing. I will never be able to thank her enough.
