GRAVITY OF SAMHITA IN EXISTING CONDITIONS
Ruby Jain*, Krishna Kumar Tiwari, Shailesh Jain and Deepak Singh Yadav
ABSTRACT
The word „ayu‟ here means the life. The ayu is composed of sharira (body), indriya (sense organs), satva (mind) and atma (soul). Ayurveda is not merely a medical science; rather it is the art and science of life. Ayurveda is a rare and real conglomeration of sociology, ecology, psychology, botany, medical science, Samhita is the oldest and the most authentic treatise on Ayurveda and is the ancient medical science of India. Apart from giving information on medical conditions and their treatment; it also gives valuable information on geographical, social, and economic conditions of India. Samhitas possess the oldest keen knowledge of healthcare, cure and life science. Samhitas always illuminate our path like sun. Ayurveda samhitas are based on principles which remain same and valid in all phases of life. There are so many concepts described in Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, Ashtanga Hridayam and Sangrah, Sharangdhar Samhita, Bhava Prakasha and Madhava Nidanam – which are widely applicable in various fields but viewing these from a single window of medical field makes the importance of those principles diffuse.
