What is the reasoning behind this ayruvedic diet and how can one argue the absurdity of it? It looks like a low/no calorie diet to me.
First of all, it's spelled "ayurvedic".
Second of all, it's a fairly common diet in India that has been around for thousands of years. It's not exclusive to any particular sect or cult - unless you consider the entire religion of Hinduism to be a cult.
Third of all, you'd probably have to be a scientist, doctor or nutritionist to properly argue against such a diet, and that would involve a great deal of research on your part. In the course of your research, you might actually find that the ayurvedic diet principles are not at all "absurd", as you seem to think.
