Associate Professor, P.G Department of RasaShastra and BhaishajyaKalpana DSRRAU Jodhpur ABSTRACT: Rasashastra plays an important role in Ayurveda. It’s a pharmaceutical branch of indian system of medicine. It deals mainly with various metals, minerals, mercury, animal products and other substances. In this text different types of shodhana and marana process are described for rasa, maharasa, uprasa, sadharana rasa, ratna, dhatu, upratnas etc. Bhasma is prepared by the marana process and it helps in easy absorption and assimilation due to micro fine element particles and does not produce any side effects in the human body, incinerated dravya will eradicate jara(old age), and diseases. Hence bhasma pareeksha like rekhapurana, apunarbhava, niruthaetc are also described in this text. Due to increase demand of rasaushadhis and commercialization, pharmaceutical companies are compromising with quality and standard of bhasma to prepare them in a short span of time, because processing of bhasma involves heavy labour and lot of tedious procedures like shodhana, mardana(bhawana), marana. If the shodhana process of metals and minerals is not done properly, then it acts as poison and reveals different types of complications in the human body like jwara, bhrama, vamana, kushtha, shool, mrityu etc. So in this article I described comparative analysis of heavy metal poisoning and its treatment. Comparative analysis of heavy metal poisoning and its treatment are mentioned in this article.

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.

There is a separate branch of ancient Indian medicine that deals with Hg-based preparations. To make this ancient science of Mercury (Rasa/ Parad in Sanskrit) relevant to the modern world, one has to find how engineering aspects could be employed to carry out the purification and processing of Mercury. ‘Why Engineering?’ and ‘How? Engineering?!’, have been answered in this article. Keywords: Rasa, Siddha, Ayurveda, Dust, Malignancies 1. Introduction modern world.

  • Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): Western and Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Treatment Approaches
    Urinary tract infection (UTI): Western and Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Treatment Approaches. By: Mahsa Ranjbarian Urinary system Renal or Urinary system is one of the 10 body systems that we have. This system is the body drainage system. The urinary system is composed of kidneys (vrikka), ureters (mutravaha nadis), bladder(mutrashaya) and urethra(mutramarga). The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped, fist size organs that lie in the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. Ureters are tubes that carry the wastes or urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The urine finally exit the body from the urethra when the bladder is full.1 Urethras length is shorter in women than men due to the anatomical differences. Major function of the urinary system is to remove wastes and water from our body through urination. Other important functions of the urinary system are as follows. 1. Prevent dehydration and at the same time prevent the buildup of extra fluid in the body 2. Cleans the blood of metabolic wastes 3. Removing toxins from the body 4. Maintaining the homeostasis of many factors including blood PH and blood pressure 5. Producing erythrocytes 6. make hormones that help regulate blood pressure 7. keep bones strong 8. keep levels of electrolytes, such as potassium and phosphate, stable 2 The Urinary system like any other systems of our body is working under the forces of three doshas, subdoshas. Mutravaha srotas, Ambuvahasrota and raktavahasrota are involved in formation and elimination of the urine. Urine gets separated from the rasa by maladhara kala with the help of pachaka pitta and samana vayu and then through the mutravaha srota(channels carrying the urine) it is taken to the bladder.

  • Chapter-II Performance Audit Department of Ayurveda and Indian
    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.

  • Critical Appraisal of the Concept of Shodhana and Sadyashodhana Among the Panchakarma
    Int J Ayu Pharm Chem REVIEW ARTICLE www.ijapc.com e-ISSN 2350-0204 Critical Appraisal of the Concept of Shodhana and Sadyashodhana among the Panchakarma 1 2 Satyajit P. Kulkarni *, Milind M. Godbole and Sanjay S. Jadhav3 1Swasthavritta, Yashwant Ayurvedic College and P.G.T.R.C. Kodoli, Kolhapur, Maharashtra, India 2,3 Panchakarma, Yashwant Ayurvedic College and P.G.T.R.C. Kodoli, Kolhapur, Maharashtra, India Abstract Shodhana or Panchakarma is the very important part of the Ayurvedic treatment. The period during which Charak Samhita was written, it would have been practiced in greater proportion. There is detailed description about Panchakarma or Shodhana in Charak Samhita, Sushrut Samhita and Ashtang Sangrah (and Ashtang Hridayam). These texts are called as Brihat Trayi . Sharangdhar Samhita and Bhavprakash described Panchakarma concisely as compared to the Brihat Trayi texts. Every disease is told to be treated with Shodhana first1 and Shamana thereafter. The Kalpa sthana and Sidhi sthana of Charak Samhita are solely dedicated to the Shodhana. Thus being an important treatment modality Shodhana is very useful in achieving both the goals of Ayurveda i.e., for maintaining health in the healthy and to treat the disease in the diseased one. This paper deals with theory part of the Shodhana to be applied in the healthy and the diseased. The paper also highlights the difference in implementing the Shodhana in the diseased and healthy one.

Deva 391760 Assistant Professor/Consultant, Dept of Panchakarma, Parul Institute of Ayurved & Dr. Divya. B Research, Khemdas Patel Ayurved Hospital, Vadodara, GUJARAT, 391760, ABSTRACT Roga(Disease) are Aparisankheyaya(Innumerable) with multiple cause and symptoms. History taking, physical examination and also laboratory investigations plays a key role in diagnosis of disease. Life encompasses the states of health and disease. Ayurveda, the spearhead science deals with these states of life. Various fervent concepts with sturdy bedrocks are laid down for understanding the body. Diagnosis and understanding of diseases is of prime relevance in the eld of medicine. Different principles and methods in unveiling the mechanism of disease have been mentioned in classical texts. One of the most alluring concepts is Leenadosha(Concealed) in the modulation of a disease. Technically Leena term suggests to Conceal/Attach or even Merge. Here the Doshas will be attached or concealed to the Dhatus. So we can frame the quality of Leena dosha as Ekadeshasthita/Anutva and also Dhatvantaragata(Concealed to dhatus). Ama(Toxins from undigested food) is considered as the basic cause for all the disease. The person who is liable to Mandagni(Decreased digestive re) undergoes Viruddahara then Amotpatti is certain. Sanchara(Movement) of Ama due to multiple etiology causes Sthanasamshraya(Connement) especially in Asti(Bones) and Sandhis(Joints) causes Shoola(Pain) in same areas.

Conflicts of Interest: Nil Corresponding author: Amandeep Sharma ABSTRACT The word ‘Rasa Shastra’ comprises of two words: ‘Rasa’ and ‘Shastra.’ Rasa stands for ‘Mercury’ while Shastra stands for ‘Science.’ Therefore ‘Rasa Shastra’ literally stands for ‘Science of Mercury.’ However this specialised branch of Ayurveda has a broad range of study. It deals with all the metals, minerals, mercury and other substances known as Rasa Dravayas. Pharmaceutical branch of Indian medicine which includes proper identification, collection, preservation and standardization of the drugs. In the field of Rasa Shastra, Shodhana and Marana are the most important processes for preparing a medicine.

  • Researches on Mercurial Preparations: the Prime Requirement for Their Acceptance in Medical World
    [Downloaded free from http://www.ayujournal.org on Tuesday, January 30, 2018, IP: 120.62.14.24] AYU Access this article online Website: www.ayujournal.org DOI: 10.4103/0974-8520.175541 Invited Article Quick Response Code: Researches on mercurial preparations: The prime requirement for their acceptance in medical world J. Arunachalam Ex-Head, National Centre for Compositional Characterisation of Materials, Hyderabad, Telangana, India Abstract Ayurvedic and Siddha medicinal preparations containing mercury have been used over centuries in India. The recent WHO guidelines on the use of mercurials as well as actions by other international organizations into eliminating mercury in all forms have put the people practicing Rasa Shastra in a quandary. Active research in the mechanism of curative actions of mercurials is very much essential, to have widespread acceptance of the ancient practice. The toxicity of a substance depends on its bio‑availability; the chemical form in which it is present and the biochemical reactions it participates. Mercury is usually administered as mercuric sulfide (Rasasindura or Linga Chendooram) which has a KSP value of 10–54. Despite this extreme insolubility, how mercury becomes bio‑available under enzymatic conditions needs to be studied. Its bioaccumulation in critical organs and excretory pathways are to be ascertained. Research is also needed to establish whether Rasasindura or equivalent medicines induce the (excess) synthesis of sulfur containing biomolecules in human systems, which act as cell protectors against free radical‑induced cell damage. The antioxidants themselves could be the curative agents; mercury being just a catalyst. It may also be possible that the exposure to mercury, even in very small amounts, could lead to the synthesis of specific metallothioneins in the human system, helping to detoxify the mercury exposure.
