NORTH EASTERN INSTITUTE OF AYURVEDA AND FOLK MEDICINE RESEARCH The circular pictorial seal of North Eastern Institute of Ayurveda and Folk Medicine Research (NEIAFMR) has a scene of Himalayan Mountains and  blue sky representing the States' geography, housing the motifs of a pair of green hands supporting a lotus and a mortar and pestle; its acronym and its tagline in Sanskrit ‘सर्वे सन्तु निरामयाः’ (1.4.14, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad) meaning ‘May All be Healthy’. The mortar and pestle refer to the traditional medical systems; the lotus refers to purity, enlightenment, rebirth, transformation, personal growth, resilience, overcoming obstacles and divine beauty and the supporting hands refer to the nourishing and protecting efforts made toward folk medicines.
