DEFINITION : The definitions of Samskara given Reprint Requests: Sanjay Gupta, Lecturer Department of by Various Ayurvedic scholars are as follows:- Panchkarma, Sai Ayurvedic Medical College, Aligarh, Uttar Samskaro hi Gunantradhana uchyata(Ca.Vi. 1/21) Pradesh, India, E-mail: [email protected], Tel.: 9411754007. © Red Flower Publication Pvt. Ltd. 230 Sanjay Gupta, Shuchi Mitra, P.K. Prajapati Acarya Caraka defines Samskara as i.e. in Sutra Sthana 7th Chapter (221 to 231verse). transformation of the inherent attributes of a substance. Various commentators have tried to DARSANA define Samskara as follows: Cakrapani quotes it as - Samskaro hi Gunantradhana uchyata In Vaisesika Darsana 3 types of Samskara (Ca. Vi. 1/21) arementioned, which are as follows:- i.e. imbibing different Gunas on the original 1. Vegakhya Samskara Gunas of a Dravya. 2. Sthiti Sthapaka Samskara 3. Bhavnakhya Samskara Gunadhanam doshapariharo va Sanskarah A.D. 5/1/36-44) ROLE OF AGNI IN i.e. increasing useful gunas and removing TRANSFORMATION OF GUNA harmful dosa. According to Cakrapani, This above said gunantaradhana (change in gunas) by Samskara is possible only in case of naimittika Every dravya is having it’s specific gunas, not in the case of samsiddhika gunas. pancabhautika composition. The alteration in pancabhautika composition is taking place at every moment, due to Agni Mahabhuta present in it. But LITERARY REVIEW OF SAMSKARA rate of transformation or alteration is too slow to VEDIKA KALA identify. After specific period only, these alterations are identified in the form of decrease of In vedic kala references are found showing potency etc. For e.g. Drugs which are potent different Samskara involved in method of becomes less potent after some period. Potency of preparation. 'Soma Nirmana. Vidhi’ is one of the Curnas of any dravya remains for specific period of well known example in which various Samskaras 6 months Moreover, the factors outside like desa, like Kuttan, Pesana, Nispidana are there, though kala etc, are also affecting the pancamahabhutas not mentioned separately as a Samskara. present in a dravya. So, after thinking minutely, it becomes clear that after change in dravya (in the SAMHITA KALA form of alteration in pancabhautika composition) Change in guans takes place, which is called as gunantaradhana. In Brhat-trayi, directly types of Samskara are At the level of Pancamahabhutas, Prthvi is not mentionedIn Samhita kala also, at majority of adhara for all the process and Akasa is providing the places Samskara word is used for different space for that. Remaining three Mahabhutas, processes such as Svedana, Mardana, Bhavana, namely Jala, Agni and Vayu are responsible for Manthana etc. transformations or changes taking place in a In Caraka Samhita, the oldest treatise of substance.So, in any Pancabhautika substance also, Ayurveda, after quoting definition of Samskara, a continuous changes or transformations are taking list of various processes useful for making place due to presence of Agni Mahabhuta in it. But Gunantaradhana are given. the rate of transformation may differ according to Though Susruta Samhita and Astanga Hrdaya quantity of Agni Mahabhuta present in it and other had not contributed much about the types and helpful conditions. By providing Agni from concept of Samskara, Astanga Samgraha had outside, one can increase the rate of given good contribution by mentioning various transformation, Followed by Vayu and Jala (22) examples of Samskara collected at one place Mahabhutas respectively.

Samskara, one can alter Pancabhautika Here, it is also important to note that, during composition, thereby forming various new dravya process of transformation either heat is formed i.e. from a single dravya as per requirement, a broad liberated, known as exothermic reaction or heat is field is obtained for the use of single drug in required for the process of transformation, known treatment of different diseases as well as different as endothermic reaction. The difference between stages of the same disease. transformation and Samskara is that By use of this concept only, one is able to use transformation can takes place in any manner toxic substances as medicines and if Samskara is forming any dravya. But Samskara is making not done properly, the medicine can act as a toxic transformation in a proper way, by providing substance. required conditions, to get the expected resultant. Thus process which is creatively done in proper YOGATA API VISHAM way is termed as Samskara. TIKSHNAM UTTAMAM BHESAJAM So, in a broad sense, Samskara as a process can be BHAVET (CA.SU. 1/126) classified under following 3 headings 1. Toya Sannikarsa Samskara as a Guna is a causative factor 2. Agni Sannikarsa responsible for new ability introduced in a dravya. 3. Toyagni Sannikarsa As karma, Samskara is a process or method of Samskara introducing new ability in a dravya.

Though medical science considered the excessive use of NSAID and Helicobacter Pylori are two leading causes. Infection of H. pylori progresses from gastritis to more severe upper gastrointestinal tract disorders. H. pylori colonize the stomachs of more than half of the human population. In the Vrayatrya (Triad of Major Ayurvedic texts) Amla-pitta is not mentioned. However, Acharya Sushruta, Harita, Kashyap has described Shula in their treatise. For this disorder, single and compound herbal drugs were prescribed. Moreover, Acharya Chakradutta started the use of Iron and calcium-containing compound in compound formulations for the first time. Calcium carbonate is a rapidly acting acid neutralizer. However, the role of iron in these disorders is not clear in terms of modern pharmacology.

  • Rasa Shastra Caldecott
    Formulation in Ayurveda Todd Caldecott Rasa Shastra: Herbal Alchemy of the Nepali Bajracharya Tradition: An Exploration of Simple and Complex Ayurvedic Formulas with Case Studies by Todd Caldecott About 16 years ago, my fellow AHG colleague Alan Tillotson asked if I might be interested to working on a project and sent a manuscript written by his Nepalese teacher of Ayurveda, Vaidya Mana Bajra Bajracharya, aka “Dr. Mana.” Honored by Alan’s request, I readily agreed, fascinated by this opportunity to connect with a tradition of Ayurveda that was totally new to me. As I learned more about the heritage of Dr. Mana and the indigenous Newar people of Kathmandu, it became clear that Nepal is a treasure-trove of ancient Indian culture, home to perhaps the oldest continuously practiced lineage of Ayurveda in the world. Protected by the foothills of the Himalayas, for more than 2500 years the Kathmandu Valley has served as a safe haven for peoples fleeing persecution and war. Immigrants from the south brought with them the language of Sanskrit and their unique cultural practices, integrating with the indigenous Tibeto-Burmese population to create a cosmopolitan synthesis that is reflected in traditional Newar society. For many years, most of the authentic Sanskrit texts being discovered have been found in the Kathmandu Valley, where they have been preserved by different Newar families for centuries. Dr. Mana’s family alone has a huge library of ancient palm leaf manuscripts on Ayurveda and Buddhism that have never been seen or catalogued by Journal of the American Herbalists Guild (November 2016) Formulation in Ayurveda Todd Caldecott academic researchers.

Apparently Zen was too simple to be noticed in the land of its origin, where it remained an invisible teaching.

    Chapter-II Performance Audit This Chapter presents the Performance Audits of ‘Efforts to popularize and strengthen Ayurveda in Rajasthan’, ‘Management of Drinking Water in Rajasthan‟ and ‘Phase-I of Jaipur Metro’. Department of Ayurveda and Indian Medicine 2.1 Efforts to popularize and strengthen Ayurveda in Rajasthan Executive summary Indian Systems of Medicine comprise Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha, Yoga and Naturopathy, of which Ayurveda is widely practiced in Rajasthan. The Ayurveda Department (Department) has an extensive network of 118 hospitals and 3,577 dispensaries in the State and during 2012-17, Government of Rajasthan (GoR) incurred ` 2,655.89 crore for Ayurveda Healthcare Services and Ayurveda Education. Though the Department prepared State Public Health Standards for standardization of facilities in Ayurveda dispensaries and hospitals in May 2014, they were still pending approval of GoR as of October 2017. The Department’s decision in September 1994 to establish a dispensary for minimum population of 2,000 persons was not followed and there was imbalanced distribution of dispensaries in rural areas. Further, in absence of an effective awareness programme, the utilisation of the vast network of Ayurveda healthcare facilities could not be ensured in the State. Even the specialty clinics for key diseases had not been established. Basic infrastructural facilities were inadequate as electricity was not available in 46.88 per cent and drinking water in 74.17 per cent of the Ayurveda healthcare centers. Further, in seven test checked districts, toilets were not available in 75.38 per cent healthcare centers and most healthcare centers did not have all essential equipment. There was shortage of manpower at all levels and disproportionate deployment of Medical Officers and Nurse/Compounders was also noticed.
