To the Editor.

—With the October 2, 1991, publication of your attack against Maharishi Ayur-Veda,¹JAMA's readers have been presented with two diametrically opposed views of our activities:

1. In the May 22/29, 1991, article co-authored by me,² Maharishi Ayur-Veda is portrayed as a serious attempt to bring a respected system of traditional Indian medicine to the West.
   
2. This effort is backed by credentialed physicians who wish to explore a viable health care alternative. No outlandish claims are made for the efficacy of Maharishi Ayur-Veda. We present sound scientific research to support our hope that promising new therapies are being uncovered.
