Saikh, Asmin. "A Comparative Philosophical analysis of Dravya with Special reference to Yogacara and Vaisesika School". RESEARCH REVIEW International Journal of Multidisciplinary 7, n. 12 (14 dicembre 2022): 142–48. http://dx.doi.org/10.31305/rrijm.2022.v07.i12.021.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Several Indian intellectual traditions, including Buddhism, Jainism, and the Brahmanical systems of Vedanta, Sankhya, and especially Vaisesika, regularly utilise the term “dravya” in their philosophical and religious texts. There have been disagreements on the precise definition of the term dravya, which is usually translated as “substance,” as well as its historical development and meanings. Even the translation of dravya as “substance” raises questions because dravya isn’t necessarily thought of in terms of immutability, but substance is understood to be an idea that is. The idea of dravya has extremely diverse meanings in Buddhist and Brahmaical intellectual traditions, although being used in both. According to Vaisesika, one of the Brahmaical schools, reality is made up of interactions between substances, and Dravya is a genuine substance that exists independently of any knowing subject. In contrast, substances are viewed as merely labels in Yogacara Buddhism, only existing in connection to a knowing subject. Each entity may be regarded from the point of view of nirvana as either a substance or merely an idea, depending on the particular circumstances.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Vipaka is a unique concept of Ayurveda. It is the post digestive effect of any ingested substance. These can be in either of the two forms: Ahara Dravya (food) or Aushadh Dravya (medicine). Once the digestion of these substances takes place in the gastro-intestinal tract, it is metabolized and transformed into an absorbable form which is called Vipaka. In general understanding Vipaka is the final bio-transformation of digested food/drug. The term “Vi” (of Vipak) is ‘Vishishta’ means specific or special, and “Paka” refers to digestion or the function of Agni (digestive power or biological power). Any substance when ingested, it is digested and metabolized by the action of different specific Agnis (biological fire) i.e., Jatharagni, Bhutagni, and Dhatwagni of the body. During the entire process, the ingested substance decomposes and re-synthesizes several times for further absorption and assimilation process. This can also be referred to life experiences. In this study we will discuss and concluded different Dravya and their Vipaka.

Ayurveda is the science that talks about the longevity of life, maintenance of health and destroying the disease. Amongst diseases, Jwara (Fever) is the first to affect mankind which comes in tamas form at the time of birth and death. It is crucial among all diseases as it affects not only human beings but also all living creatures. Ayurveda explains about many Dravyas (substance) to reduce fever. Amongst them Guduchi [Tinospora Cordifolia (Willd.) Miers] of family Menispermaceae, is a climbing shrub found throughout tropical India. The plant is having its reference in most of the Ayurveda literature, which is indicated in Jwara, Vataraktha (Gout) Kushtha (skin Dis- eases), Prameha (diabetes)etc. Presently Ayurveda has come close to humans that it has become a human science. Through this paper an effort is made to know more about the Dravya Guduchi, with its mode of action on Jwara with relevance to Dravya Prabhava, Guna Prabhava and Dravya Guna Prabhava Keywords: Ayurveda, Guduchi, Jwara

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Ayurveda gives immense importance in prevention of diseases along with maintainance of health. This life science recommends’ Dravya (Medicinal Substance/Drug) as the most important tool in treatment and considers it as one among the Chikitsa Chatushpaada (4 limbs for treatment). The Dravyas present in the universe can be considered as Ahara (Food) and Aushadha (Medicine). Ahara is the most essential component of life both in healthy as well as diseased state. Improper intake of Ahara can cause illness and the management of diseases can be done with the help of Aushadhis. To understand the wide distribution of Dravyas, all the Acharyas (Scholars) including Brihattrayis (The Greater Trio) has explained and classified both the Ahara and Aushadha Dravyas in an easy and understandable manner. Dravyaguna Vijnana (Ayurvedic Pharmacology) is a section of Ayurveda which mainly deals with Guna (properties), Karma (action) and Prayoga (Therapeutic effects) of various Dravyas and the general principles of Ayurvedic pharmacognosy and pharmacology is included in it for the better management of disease. One cannot treat a disease simply by knowing the Nama (Name) and Rupa (Morphology) of Aushadhas alone. A wise physician should take into account about the properties of Aushadha and Ahara Dravyas along with Roga-Rogi Pariksha Vidhi (Methods of Examination of Disease as well as the Patient) while giving medicine. So an Ajna Vaidya (Ignorant physician) who is not having proper knowledge of Dravyas can’t treat a patient successfully. In this review article, an approach is made to understand the grouping of drugs under different Vargas by the Brihattrayis based on various aspects.

The Guna(Static properties) in common terms known as properties or qualities. There are 41 Gunas in Ayurvedc classics. Among them the Gurvadi Gunas and Paradi Gunas are used in the various treatment measures. The Guru is known as heaviness. Gurutwa is correlated with Gravity in modern science. Parthiva and Apya Mahabhuta are responsible for this Guru Guna. The Guru drugs act as Brumhana(Nourishing as well as help to increase the mass of the tissues), Anuloman(Mild laxative). The exact opposite action of Guru drug is seen in Laghu Dravya. The Laghu drugs give Lightness to the body, as it is light in nature. The Akashiya, Vayavya, Agneya, Laghu Gunas are predominant in this drugs. These drugs act as Agnideepan(Appetizer), Strotoshodhan(Cleanses the channels). The more Parthiva Dravya, more the Guru can be considered. Less Parthiva Dravya more the Laghu can be considered. To assess the Parthivatwa by its correlation with Density and Specific gravity. Same can be considered for Jaliyatwa and Vayaviyatwa. Assessment of objective Parametric measures of Guru and Laghu Guna can be done by Density(Bulk), Specific Gravity(Liquid and solid). The Specific gravity, more formally known as relative density, is a measure of the density of a substance in comparison to the density of water. In this present research work there are 16 drugs for specific gravity for solids, 12 drugs for specific gravity for liquids, 20 drugs for Bulk density and the same 20 drugs for True density drugs have been selected.

Ayurveda the science of life gives importance to keep balance between nature and human relationship. From Vedic period to Samhita period there was less of metals/minerals in formulation, but from the period of Nagarjuna formulation of herbo-mineral drugs are used profusely. A careful survey of the original text on Rasashastra shows that the subject covers the entire field of inorganic pharmaceutical preparation like metallic, non-metallic and ongano-metallic compounds of Ayurvedic Materia medica. Shodhana and Marana of the substance are done with some special processes and thereafter can be used therapeutically. Kosthi is defined as for extraction of dravyas sattva and for the purpose of Dhalana, the special ovens used are called Kosthika. They can be correlated with Gas stove, Hot plate and Heating mantle in modern science. Kosthi are the special devices mentioned in Rasa Shastra to process the Rasa Dravya. They are mentioned in text of Rasa Shastra depicting its importance to other devices like Yantra, Musha, Puta. Kosthi are of different types like Angarkosthi, Patal Kosthi, Gara Kosthi, Musha Kosthi. Their description in Rasa grantha draws attention to know Kosthi in scientific way. Therefore, in the present paper an attempt to review the different Kosthi.

Lysenko, Viсtoria. "To be liberated the Vaisheshika way, or the Vaisheshika attempt at a «Negative Soteriology» by the Indian school of philosophy". Философская мысль, n. 12 (dicembre 2021): 8–14. http://dx.doi.org/10.25136/2409-8728.2021.12.37003.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The article examines the original concept of the Vaisheshika school, criticized by other Indian philosophers, according to which Self (Atman), freed from the bonds of rebirth (saṃsāra), is a pure substance (dravya), devoid of consciousness, which is believed to be its impermanent quality (guna); the opponents compared the Vaisheshika's liberated Self with a stone or a log. The author proposes an explanation of the Vaisheshika liberation doctrine (soteriology) within the framework of its categoriology, in which consciousness and Atman belong to different categories, respectively, guna and dravya. Vaisheshika proclaims knowledge of the six categories to be the highest spiritual goal (nihshreyasa), which, in turn, comes from the pure Dharma (Merit). The reason why the Vaisheshikas felt obliged to add a pure Dharma as the final step towards liberation (which distinguishes Vaisheshika from other schools, emphasizing the soteriological value of knowledge) is explained by assuming the Dharma's capacity to overcome a dichotomy of merit-demerit (dharma-adharma) as the main factor responsible for the rebirth of an embodied ātman. The pure Dharma, due to all the positive karmic energy accumulated during countless reincarnations of the soul, arises at the very last moment in a person's life to purufy his/her true Atman from the law of karma and rebirth. Since nothing can be said about Atman's future, it is not a "liberation for", but a "liberation from", which can be called a "negative soteriology".

The presence of an abnormally large amount of cholesterol in the blood is called Hypercholesterolemia which has been developed due to a sedentary lifestyle. The liver is the main organ for producing cholesterol in the body. Staulya (Obesity) which is included in Ashtau-Nindhita-Purusha (8 physical deformities) by Acharya Charaka (Ch. Su.21) is the disease caused due to vitiated Meda. As cholesterol is formed by fatty tissue i.e. Meda ex- plained in Ayurvedic literature. So, both the entities can be correlated as they both have the same composition i.e. fatty tissue. The present study aimed to find out the role of Ahariya Dravya (dietary substance) Atasi (flax seeds) administered twice a day for 3 months duration on patients of Hypercholesterolemia and some factors of Staulya. After conducting the study, the observations and results were obtained. Keywords: Hypercholesterolemia, Staulya, obesity, Atasi, flax seeds

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Both Āyurweda and Philosophy are two subject streams, which are more close to the worldly and spiritual lives of human beings. Their connection is non-separable even in the beginning of these two systems. Therefore, it is worthy to investigate the connection between these two systems according to the cognition of seven categories and atoms, which are defined in the philosophy of Vaiśeṣika and how they are applied for the treatments of Āyurveda. The enumeration of categories included in Vaiśeṣika system such as; Dravya, Guṇa, Karma, Sāmānya, Viśeṣa, and Samavāya have been applied for the descriptions in the Āyurvedic treatments. Both these systems accept that the substance is the main component and that others all depend under the substance. Vaiśeṣika mentions of five types of Karma developed by Ūrdhva etc. Caraka and Susṛta have discussed about Pañca karma, Agni karma, Jāta karma etc. According to the philosophy of Vaiśeṣika, Sāmānya (General) means similarity of all objects and each other. For instance, the existence in combinative position of Substance, Attribute, and Action are depended upon their appearance of Sāmānya as well as Viśeṣa. In Āyurvedic system, one of the fundamental elements is awareness of resemblance. The resemblance of the substance, attribute, and action is always becomes the cause of increasing healthiness. On the other hand, their dissimilarity is the cause of reducing healthiness itself. Both systems accept that the Ātma is eternal. From these facts, it would appear that the Āyurvedic system have applied the concepts in philosophy of Vaiśeṣika for the use of a practical methodological system.

Background: Pugaphala (fruit of Areca catechu Linn.) and Udumbara Twaka (bark of Ficus glomerata Roxb.) are popular for their medicinal properties. Both drugs are used in a variety of compound formulations in Ayurveda. On the basis of their Rasa Panchaka (five factors of substance), pharmacognostical, and pharmaceutical research, Pugaphala and Udumbara Twaka were chosen as Prithvi Mahabhuta (earth element) dominant drugs in the current study. Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of Prithvi Mahabhuta-dominating Dravya, Pugaphala, and Udumbara Twaka on intestinal transit time in Swiss albino mice. Materials and methods: A total of 18 Swiss albino mice were divided into three groups of six in each. Pugaphala and Udumbara Twaka were administered in mice in doses of 260 mg/kg and 520 mg/kg, respectively. Results: The result shows that both the drugs significantly reduce intestinal motility due to their Guna (properties) as Ruksha (dry), Vishada (nonslimy), Sthira (stable), Sheeta (cold), and Kashaya Rasa (astringent taste) of Prithvi Mahabhuta; however, Udumbara sample is found to be more efficient. Conclusion: The dominance of Prithvi Mahabhuta is thus confirmed by pharmacological studies in both Pugaphala and Udumbara Twaka, and it is also confirmed that Udumbara Twaka has more Parthiva dominancy than Pugaphala Churna. The Stambhana effect of Prithvi Mahabhuta on intestinal motility can be assessed by latency of onset of white-colored fecal matter in mice.

Bhaishajya Kalpana mainly deals with the preparation of different medicine which includes Pancha vidha Kshaya Kalpana (primary preparations) and its Upkalpana (secondary preparations). Pancha vidha kashaya kal-panas being the primary preparations and the most widely used formulations as a starting dosage form as well as a base for many different dosage forms. Vati Kalpana is a derived form of Kalka Kalpana and is one of the sali-ent secondary preparations in Ayurveda Pharmaceutics. This is widely used in the pharmaceutical world of both Ayurveda and modern science. Acharya Sharangdhara has depicted various synonyms of Vatikalpana i.e Gutika, Vati, Modaka, Vatika, Pindi, Guda, Varti etc. On the basis of preparation, it is of two types of Sagni and Niragni Vati. For the preparation of Vati, three ingredients are necessary i.e., fine powder, binding substance and Bha-vana Dravya. The general dose of Vati is one Karsha (12gm) and also depends upon Kostha and Agni of the pa-tient. The shelf life is 2 years for Vati which consist of herbal drugs and an indefinite time period for the pills made of minerals. In modern science, it can be compared with tablets, pills, capsules etc. which are solid dosage forms and can be easily administrated. For the formulation of tablets numerous additives are required such as diluents, Adsorbents, Binders (granulating agents), Disintegrating agents, Organoleptic additives, Glidants, anti-adhesives, lubricants. There are various analytical parameters to check the authenticity of Tablet such as disinte-gration time, hardness, dissolution time, uniformity of weight etc.

In Āyurveda, Agrya Sangraha means collection of leading or principle substances. AgryaAusadhi in Ayurveda is used to prevent diseases and maintain health. Charak Samhitā Sutrasthāna includes 152 AgryaAushadhi, Astanga Hridayam Uttarsthān includes Agrya Aushadhi and in Astanga Sangraha Sutrasthāna AgryaSangraha. Agrya Dravyas are the drugs that are used as first drug choice for the treatment of diseases. They are cost effective, eco- nomical, easy to use and safe. EkalaDravya is the dravya used in single form and single drug is mostly includes in AgryaPrakarana. The AgryaDravya mentioned in classical texts of Āyurveda are best in their respective class of action. The fact that Agrya are best drugs can be deduced from the fact that a single drug can do many functions, so a single drug will work instead of prescribing a bunch of drugs e.g. Pippali Moola will work alone for Dipana, Pāchana and Anahaprasamana and thus, no need to prescribe three different drugs each for a desired action.

The activities and the various food substances that are conducive to the Srotas (channels of the body) and mind are regarded as Pathya and those that are not conducive are regarded as Apathya. Pathya is also considered as synonymous to Chikitsa (treatment) according to Acharya Charaka. Other synonyms of Pathya are Satmya (habit) ,Swastha hitakara (Good for Health), Upshaya (palliative), Swavastha Paripaalaka (Maintains Health), Hita Ahara (Wholesome food), Swasthaaurjaskara (Promote health status) , Sharmakara (establish Health), Dhatu Avirodhi (Not against body tissue) and Dhatu Saamyakara (Establish normalcy of body tissue). Pathya word is indicative for both food and activity. Dadhi (Curd) is considered as both Pathya and Apathya. Dadhi belongs to Amla Skanda (group of sour drugs) and it is one among the Vicitra Pratyarabdha Dravya (substances which does not act as per Rasa Panchaka); as these Dravyas are having the capability of producing both positive and negative impact on health. Dadhi is Pathya in conditions like anorexia, intermittent fever, diarrhea, emaciation, rhinitis, Dry cough, Irritable bowel syndrome and hemorrhoids. Dadhi is indicated in intermittent fever, where pathogenesis occurs due to-Vata, Kapha as alone or Vatakapha. Dadhi is Apathya in Kustha, Visarpa, Prameha etc. In this paper an attempt is made to understand the concept of Pathya and Apathy by considering diet as curd. Keywords: Dadhi, Curd, Ayurveda, Pathya, Apathya.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
A simple electrochemical determination of surface-active substances by using time-dependent variation of the capacitive current in a.c. voltammetry at the HMDE is described. Surface-active substances were accumulated by stirring solution at the deposition potential of −0.6 V versus Ag/AgCl (sat. NaCl). The capacitive current was recorded for different deposition times in the range 0–120 s, wherefrom the linear calibration plot is constructed. The proposed method was verified for model surfactant TritonX-100 in the concentration range 0.02–0.25 mg/L and for humic acid in the concentration range 1.65–20 mg/L. The application of the method was demonstrated for freshwater samples of the Drava river, Danube river, and the wetland Kopački Rit, Croatia. The shape of theiac-Ecurves as well as the obtained concentrations of surface-active substances by using humic acid as the calibration substance are quite well describing the type and the nature of organic matter in the freshwater samples.

Sneha Kalpana refers to the pharmaceutical process of preparing oleaginous medicaments from substances like Kalka(paste), Kwatha(decoction), and Drava dravyas(liquids) in specific proportions. This involves subjecting them to a unique heating pattern and duration to meet specific pharmaceutical parameters tailored to therapeutic needs. "Ksheeravidaryadi Taila" is one such preparation mentioned in the "Anagatabhada Pratisheda Adhyaya" from Sushruta Samhita. It treats diseases through daily regimes like Shiro Abhyanga, particularly for addressing head lice infestations. The oil was meticulously prepared using the bases of Narikela Taila (Sample-A) and Karanja Taila (Sample-B). Both samples were then studied analytically. Analytical values for Sample A fell within permissible limits. However, Sample B exhibited elevated acid and peroxide values (38.99) and peroxide values (20.75), surpassing normal limits and indicating potential issues with oxidative deterioration and shelf life. Sample B's saponification value was higher than Sample A's, suggesting a faster absorption rate. The oil ingredients, characterized by Tikta and Katu rasas, Ushna veerya, and anti-parasitic properties, suggest potential effectiveness against head lice.

Sneha kalpanais one of the unique and commonly prescribed Ayurvedic dosage form in day to day practice having increase potency, palatability, shelf life etc. Although lots of verities of Snehas are described in Ayurvedic texts, the most common amongst them are Taila & Ghrita kalpana. It is a pharmaceutical process to prepare oleaginous medicament from the substances like Kalka, Sneha Dravya and Drava Dravyain specific proportion by subjecting to unique heating pattern and duration, to fulfil certain parameters according to need of therapeutics (i.e. Mridu, Maddhya & Khar). Sneha Siddha (fat soluble) drugs have better pharmacokinetic action in comparison to other dosage forms, because the use of Ghrita as a base is presumably to extract or hold lipid soluble active ingredients from the herbal drugs used and these lipid soluble substances readily permeate into the bio membrane of cells due to its lipidnature. The conceptual study suggests that Shatapala Ghritais used to treat Jwaramainly Vata and Kapha Doshapredominant. Standardization is the process of developing and agreeing upon technical standards and provides numerical value which quantifies the parameter and thus denotes the quality of formulations.Murchanaperformed on Go-Ghritamakes it a better medium for the solubility of the drug and imparts all the specific properties to theGhritawhich can be used to increase the efficacy of the drugs. Hence, it can be inferred that the medicated Ghrita should be prepared by taking the Murchhita Ghritaas ingredient rather without Ghrita Murchhana. In so many Ghrita kalpanas, Shatapala Ghritais a ghee based Ayurvedic formulation described in Samhitasand various Rasa textswith different name and slightly changes in contents. It has broad indication such as enlarge spleen (splenomegaly), Vishamajwara, Mandaagni, Rajyakshma etc.

Introduction: Sneha Kalpana is a group of preparations of medicated ghrita (ghee) and taila (oils). The use of various Samskaras allows for the transformation of the properties of ingredients into the Sneha Dravya. One such samskara known by the name Manthana Samskara aids in the proper mixing of two substances as well as the incorporation of Sheeta Guna into the preparation and make it a homogenous mixture. This helps in improving the stability of the final preparation. Aranaladi taila mentioned in Sahasrayoga is an effective oil preparation for the treatment of Vatarakta associated with daha and jwara.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The EU Water Framework Directive requires the monitoring and evaluation of surface water sediment quality based on the assessment of risk posed by contamination on the biotic receptors. Fluvial sediments are important receptors of hazardous substances (HSs) pollution from the upstream catchment areas in the Danube River Basin (DRB). For the development of systematic sediment quality monitoring and evaluation, the Drava River region on the border of Hungary and Croatia was selected as a test area representative of lowland hydromorphological conditions. Overbank (floodplain) sediments and river bottom sediments (stream sediments) were sampled at two depths at 9 locations in the test area. Eight heavy metal(oid)s were analyzed As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, and Zn as hazardous substances. The sediment quality assessment was carried out according to the 2013/39/EU Directive and EU Water Framework Directive standards. Most of the analysed HS concentrations in river bottom sediment and overbank (floodplain) sediments fall within the limits of environmental quality standards (EQS). Results show that there is no significant differences in metal(oid) HS concentrations among the various sediment types and between shallow (0-5cm) and deeper (stream sediment: 5-10cm; floodplain sediment: 40-50cm) sediment which suggests that the large lowland Drava River fluvial system is an extensive single fluvial system with homogeneous distribution of sediments and the associated contaminants. Specifically, the studied sediments in the tributaries of the Drava River do not seem to be contaminated with metal(oid) hazardous substances but at certain sites concentrations are elevated above the environmental limit values, especially for As and Zn, and to lesser extent for Cr. The data analysis techniques used enabled the identification of sites with anthropogenic pollution and the recognition of regional pattern in HSs distribution.

Health as well as diseases is dependent on various factors. According to Acharya Charak, the body is supported by three sub-pillars known as Tri Upstambha (Ahara, Nidra, and Brahmacarya). Ahara has been placed first in this statement, which shows that it is most important to maintain the life. Everyone desires a blanched diet. Ahara is responsible factor for human beings, in health and diseased state. Ahara is not only needed for the continuity of life, but also for Bala, Varna, Upacaya and longevity etc. In other medical sciences, food is considered important, but not the manner of eating and cooking. Ahara is a basic need for survival of life. For intake of Ahara, Ayurved has enlisted some special conditions which need to be followed to obtain complete benefits of the food. They are called as Ahara Vidhi Vishesha Ayatan. In which Karana is the processing of the substances which result in transformation of the inherent attributes in Dravya. In this article we will discuss the Samskara as a Karana among Ashta Ahara Vidhi Visheshayatana for maintenance of healthy life as well as management of disease.

Murvadi Agada is a unique and useful formulation, which is specifically prescribed for Agni Vikara’s. It is a compound herbal preparation that is explained under the context of “Garopahat Paavaka” i.e. a condition which is a result of impaired Agni caused due to administration of Gara visha. The formulation is a sole contribution of Asthanga Kara’s which is not explained elsewhere. Murvadi Agada has to be administered with Anupanas like Ushana Jala, Takra, Mastu and Amla Rasa Dravyas. Gara visha condition in present era can arise due to addition of toxic substances like animal excreta, toxic medicines, viruddhaaushadhi etc to food substances. In current scenario all the junk food, colouring agents, food additives, preservatives, packed food items and drinks can be taken as Gara Visha. This may produce Agni Vikara’s (digestive disorders) like Sthoulya, Arsha, Attisara, Udara Rogas etc. Murvadi Agada administered with proper Anupana can help in these diseases

Ayurveda is a deep science with Adhyatama and also a darshan itself, so for proper health in which mental and physical well-being are involved, various factors are included, and Kala is one of them. Indication by the word Kala (time) represents an appropriate time to do a particular thing. According to conventional medical science, there is a lapse of an interval between two non-simultaneous occurrences; that interval is defined as time. Kala(time) is 'Bhagavan,' having neither a beginning nor an end. In this universe, everything is constantly changing. The change from an earlier condition to its succeeding condition is called Kala (time) or, in other words, 'Parinama.' Ayurveda, a holistic science of longevity, describes Kala(time) as Karana Dravya as it is the cause for the birth and death of all living beings, for the disorders and excellence of the seasons, properties of substances such as taste and potency, the disorders or excellence of strength of Dosha and the body. Kala is the unique and specific causative factor of all types of effects, at the same time; it is unavoidable. That is why Ayurveda, being the science of life, gives emphasis to the concept of Kala.

Lifestyle disorders are due to Poor life-style which includes; poor diet, poor eating habits, lack of exercise, Smoking, excess alcohol, poor sleep, stress due to heavy workload and increased consumption of unhealthy food. Ahara Dravyas can be considered under the category Dravyabhuta Aushadhi. So, the dietetic rules can be considered as Upaya or Adravyabhuta Aushadhi for Vikaraprasamana. The eight factors of diet responsible for health and diseases are described as “Ahara Vidhi Vishesha Ayatanani”. Ahara is considered as Mahabhaishajya (the superior medicine). Various life style disorders and numerous diseases occur due to faulty dietary habits which may be prevented by proper Ahara and eating habits. Ayurveda insists that Ahara should be chosen in accordance to the Prakriti or constitution of individual. The diet is regarded as Brahman as it holds such supreme importance. “Annam Brahmeti Vyajaanat”. In general terms food includes all the edible substances. The original source of living beings and their strength, complexion and Ojas is diet which consists of Six Rasas and those again depend on substances.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The Water Framework Directive (WFD) 2000/60/EC established a framework for community action in the field of water policy. This Directive requires the monitoring of surface watercourses’ quality, which is undoubtedly influenced by the sediment composition. Their function can serve the living and transport purposes of numerous microorganisms and algae, but sediment may be a medium for transmitting dangerous toxic substances that are harmful to all living organisms in the environment as well. Many substances (including chemical substances, metals, and nutrients) can accumulate in sediment over time and be released in water or contaminate aquatic species, thus potentially negatively affecting the ecological or chemical status. Furthermore, flood events as well as human interventions can remobilise deposited sediment and thus result in the downstream and cross-border transport of sediment-associated contamination. The purpose of this investigation was to calculate the daily values of chemical elements in the transmission of suspended sediment and its accumulation in the suspended matter collected at some hydrological stations in the Danube River Basin during high flow events. The joint vision for the “Mura-Drava-Danube” area is to use the Transboundary Biosphere Reserve (TBR) concept to maintain a living river ecosystem for biodiversity and ecosystem services and to promote nature-friendly economic development for the local communities of this rural region. Therefore, this region requires a permanent sediment quality monitoring program.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas, which may be acute or chronic. Acute pancreatitis is an acute inflammatory condition that may extend to local and distant extrapancreatic tissues. Recurrent inflammations will eventually turn the disease into a chronic stage. The chronicity of the disease causes emaciation of the patient, craving for food, and worsening of the symptoms, which results in a bad prognosis due to necrosis of the pancreatic cells, depicting the Dhatupakavastha (~tissue suppuration) as per Ayurveda. The predominant symptom is persistent Udarashoola (~colicky abdominal pain). The management of pancreatitis through Rasoushadhi (~herbo-metallo-mineral-based formulations) is considered to be a choice of treatment due to its advantages, including an ability to cure even bad prognostic diseases. This is a case study of a 48-year-old male, a diagnosed case of alcoholic acute on chronic pancreatitis since 2009, where administration of a combination of few Rasoushadhi containing Lauha bhasma (~incinerated iron), Tamra bhasma (~incinerated Copper), Sudhavarga dravya (~calcium compounds), and Kshara (~alkaline substances) showed significant improvement in clinical, biochemical, and radiological parameters. The outcome of the treatment infers that Rasoushadhi can be useful in the management of such manifestations, further can reduce in number of hospitalizations and restore the health of the patient.

Ayurveda, the science of life, lays down all the preventative principles that are important in sustaining health. Ayurveda has described about the three pillars of life. They are ahara (diet), nidra (sleep), and brahmacharya (celibacy). Ahara (diet) is one of the most significant among them. It is noted that an individual can be disease free just by having a healthy diet. As a result, no medicine is equivalent to food. Kritanna varga is a group of processed food that comprises numerous food preparations such as manda (rice water), peya (thin gruel of rice), vilepi (thick gruel of rice), yavagu (gruels), yusha (soup of vegetables or pulses), ragah (sweet sour sauce), shadavah (confectionery), and so on. Yusha (soup of vegetables or pulses) is one of them, and it is well mentioned in Ayurvedic literatures and even in most of the conditions as a therapeutic diet. In Kaiyadeva nighantu- A treatise of ayurveda 22 yushas are mentioned in kritanna varga. Generally, yusha is prepared with one part of dhanya (rice) and eighteen parts of water. If saindhava lavana, sunthi (Zingiber officinale), pippali (Piper longum) etc. katu dravya’s (pungent substance) are taken and sneha (unctuousness) is added then it is called as krita (seasoned) yusha. Without katu dravyas (pungent substance) and sneha (unctuousness) it is akrita (unseasoned) yusha. Krita yusha is guru (heavy) due to sneha and akrita yusha is laghu (light). In all the yusha’s mentioned in treatise, mudga yusha is said to be best.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Ayurveda has holistic and scientific approach in health management. So it equally emphasises over Aushadhi and Pathya-Apathya to overcome the disease with a better approach. Pathya literally means a way or channel, defined as the substance or regime which does not adversely affect the body and mind, and those which adversely affect them are considered to be apathya. ‘Rasasastra’ is the branch of Ayurveda which describes the use of metals, minerals, and poisons with their actions to combat chronic and complicated diseases. As these Rasa drugs are toxic, therefore passes through extensive processing before they are declared fit for internal use. These preparations are sustaining themselves since centuries in clinical use. Even though these drugs are in assimilable forms, there should be suitable vehicles for its absorption. Specific Pathyapathya ahara viharas are mentioned for specific rasaushadhis in the Rasa classic. These specificity for selection of Aharas and Viharas as Pathya (wholesome) or Apathya (unwholesome) mainly depends on the properties of drugs which are used as Pathya and also the drug which are used as medicine. Drugs can show their efficacy only if administered in appropriate quantity with appropriate combination of drugs and foods and at appropriate time and by following proper regime as they help for proper absorption of drug, reduces its adverse effects, and to increase its bioavailability etc. So there is importance of Pathya and apathya during drug administration. The present work aims to collect information on pathya apathy mention during administration of various rasa dravyas and Rasaushadhis from classical texts.

Ayurveda treatment faces negligible complication and positive health impact on the patients, even in Ayurveda usage of herbal medicine has its own significant advantage. According to ancient science there is nothing on this earth which is not medicine. Ayurveda considers all substances as medicine, if used for specific purpose in an appropriate way. Acharyas has also described about different season, Stages and Area for collection of different part of medicinal plant. Susrut has mentioned the collection method of Ahar dravyas Samgraha in Annapanavidhi - Adhyaya where mature root is said ideal for collection, Bal (Tender) and Vriddha (bolt) root should be avoided but in special case of moolak (Radish) root, properties of Bal and Vriddha moolak are mentioned separately and in some case of disease where moolak is used as medicine especially Balmoolak is taken. Aims & Objectives - The motive of this research is to compare both stages of moolak on the basis of literature review, pharmacognostical and phytochemical properties which further evaluates their pharmacological properties and also this study would serve as a useful gauge in isolation of medicinally important phytoconstituents, performing pharmacological investigation and ensuring quality formulations and standardization of the plant material. Materials & Methods - TLC plate spot, Quanitative analysis of phenolic contents and flavonoids. Result - All the laboratory experiments show clear difference between both the stages of moolak and presence of saponin defines hepatoprotective property of Balmoolak. Conclusion - The research study has shown that Balmoolak is good for GIT and biliary system but the properties of vriddha moolak are not suitable for GIT so it is called Tridoshakarak and balmoolak is called tridoshamak property. Keywords - Bal, Vriddha, Moolak, Ahardravya.

The Rasa (taste), Guna, Veerya (power), Vipaka (end product) are the main axis for the action of substance in body, and these again have been described with the help of attribute only. Drava Guna is known as one of the Sharira Guna; and is a property of biophysical nature. Dravata is natural property of Jala Mahabhuta, it acts as Prakledana (create moistness), Bhinna Sangata (capacity to divide). Dravatva is cause of Syandana. Oozing of water from the outer part of new soil pot containing water, is Syandana and not the Patana. Syandana is due to Dravatva of water and it is a action of Jala Mahabhuta. Drava Guna Dravyas are useful to cure Vata dominant disorders being both are opposite in nature. Also, Drava Guna is useful for the treatment of Kshina Drava Dhatu. Drava Dravyas are nothing but the liquids. Hence Drava Guna indicates the liquid state of substance. That is why physical properties of liquids like viscosity, surface tension, solute concentration, capillary action and wetting, fluidity etc. should be considered.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Ayurveda is holistic science that works for healthy, wealthy and happy life. The wisdom of Ayurveda based on various theories and principles. The concept of “Samanya Vishesh Siddhanta” is one such basic principle of Ayurveda which helps to treat diseases. Samanya means similarity and Vishesh means dissimilarity, using this concept of similarity and dissimilarity many diseases can be cured effectively. Disease mainly arises due to the disturbance in equilibrium of Dosha, Dhatu, Mala and Agni, etc. The balance of these biological entities can be established using Dravyas possessing similar and dissimilar attributes. The specific Gunas and Karmas of Dravyas play key role in the concept of Samanya Vishesh Siddhanta. Samanya Vishesh Siddhant based on the qualities of substances which either increases or decrease quality and quantity of Dravya, Guna and Karma. Therefore specific Dravya (food and medicines, etc.), Guna (small, large, hot, cold and dry, etc. properties of Dravya) and Karma (exercise, mediation, Yoga, swimming, sleeping and massage, etc.) helps to treat various diseases and maintain equilibrium of Dosha, Dhatu, Mala and Agni.

Right from ancient years to contemporary times, trauma care has been an important goal of emergency management. Orthopedic injuries have a high incidence and remain a significant challenge for trauma care. Sushruta Samhita has an extensive description of the management of orthopedic injuries like fractures and dislocations. According to Ayurvedic scriptures, a fracture is the loss of the bone's continuity due to pressure. The fundamental principles of fracture therapy, such as Reduction, Immobilization, and Rehabilitation, are used to treat long bone fractures. Many indigenous substances that can aid in fracture healing are documented in ancient treatises. This study aimed to explore the types and management protocol of fracture Acharya Sushruta. The method was followed to analyze Sushruta Samhita, its commentaries, and Internet surfing from various research articles. In Sushruta Samhita, the maximum information about the disease fracture, its classification, and symptoms are elaborated in the fifteenth chapter of nidan sthan and its management was described in the third chapter of chikitsa sthan along with extensive details of surgical and non-surgical management, dietetic indications and local applications. Ancient surgeons prioritized fractures of the pelvic area, spines, long bone shafts, and thighs, among various fractures. The rules established by Acharya Sushruta are so authentic that even today's orthopedic surgeons follow them. Traction and retention were used after Unnamana (elevation of the depressed fragment) and Vinamana (depression of elevated fragment) while managing shattered bones. Sudha varga dravyas were used in compound fractures, multiple fractures, and irregular fractures when the broken section is completely separated or missed in certain circumstances. As a graft material, a paste made from the decoction of Rubia cordifolia, Sudhavarga dravya, and latex of Ficus Benghalensis was applied. The research provided a thorough literature review on fracture and fundamental principles, which are valid even in today's orthopedics.

Hence causes the vitiation of Dosha(Vata–Pitta–Kapha) and Dhatu(Rasa–Rakta–Mamsa–Meda–Asthi–Majja–Shukra) and produces the poisonous effects. The drugs which act against and subside poisonous effects on the vitiated Dosha(Vata–Pitta–Kapha) and Dhatus viz; Rasa(Plasma), Rakta(Blood), Mamsa(Muscle tissue), Meda(Fat), Asthi(Bones), Majja(Bone marrow), Shukra(Semen) are called as Vishaghna Dravyas. Visha has been defined as a substance which is destructive or life threatening and causes Shoka(Sadness). There are many poisonous drugs described in Ayurvedic classics along with their antidotes and their pharmacological actions after purification. Poisonous plants may be categorized under the chemical structure of the toxic constituents, their phylogenetic relationship viz; plants that are poisonous to eat, plants that are poisonous upon contact, plants that produce photo sensitization, and plants that produce airborne allergies conditions in the body. The phytotoxins, comprise a vast range of biologically active chemical substances, such as alkaloids, polypeptides, amines, glycosides, oxalates, resins, toxalbumins. The present review describes the different process of detoxification or purification methods (Sodhana) in Ayurvedic system of medicines. So here an attempt is made to screen the Visha Dravyas(Poisonous plants) and their purification methods in various media along with their Rasa, Guna, Veerya and Vipaka, Prabhava from the various Ayurvedic classical texts along with their pharmacological actions.

Rasashastra is the Iatrochemistry of Ayurveda which deals with the various pharmaceutical processes of Shodhana (purification/potentiation), Marana (incineration/calcination), Jarana (polling), Murchhana (a procedure by which substances especially mercury is transformed for therapeutic application) and other detail description of metals, minerals, poisonous plants and animal products which are of therapeutic importance in Ayurveda. Satvapatana is one of the processes of Rasashastra for achieving the Satva (essence) of metals and minerals from their original source. The main objective of Satvapatana is to obtain the active component of ore and to minimise the dose of Dhatu without lowering its efficacy for therapeutic uses. The process of Satvapatana was first described by Acharya Nagarjuna in Rasendra Mangala. It has also been mentioned in other classical texts such as Anandakanda, Rasarnava, Rasa Hridaya Tantra, Rasendra Chudamani, Rasa Ratna Samucchayam, Rasa Tarangini. Satvapatana occurs in two stages which are Beejavarta and Shuddhavarta. Beejavarta indicates the melting of material and Shuddhavarta indicates the time for extraction of Satva. Satva of the different drugs is of different colours. The basic requirements for Satvapatana include Satvayukta Dravyas, Dravaka Varga, Musha, Koshti etc. Satva after extracting out is again subjected to Shodhana, Mridukarana and Marana processes to use for various therapeutic purposes. Mridukarana process is mentioned only in the case of Abhraka Satvapatana. Various uses of Satvas are mentioned in different classical texts such as Abhraka Satva for Charan and Jarana of mercury, Makshika Satva for Dehaveda and Lohaveda, Tuvari Satva for Bandhana of Rasa and Uparasa, Tuttha Satva and Bhunaga Satva for relieving pain, in wound healing etc. Satvapatana is an utmost process of Rasashastra not only for therapeutic uses but also for processing of mercury.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Kshara has been used as medicine as well as food since ancient times. In Charaka Samhita it has been mentioned that three medicinal substances viz. Pippali, Kshara (alkali) and Lavana (salt) can be used as emergency medicine, but they should not be consumed in excess (Ati Upayunjita). If they are consumed in excess quantity they will cause several adverse effects in the body. There is no specific explanation available for the term Ati Upayunjita. However excess use also can be taken in two ways i.e. in high dose and/ or for continuous use for long duration. For the drug Kshara, the word Ati Upayunjita is mentioned for continuous use for longer duration. What time period considered being a long time to use has not been clarified by the Acaryas. So this present review article highlights the conceptual aspects of Trividha Atisevaniya Varjya Dravya w.s.r. to Kshara.
