<p>Most significant <em>Panchakarma</em> therapy process is called <em>Basti.</em> Basti is the most significant <em>Samshodhana</em> technique out of all of them. <em>Basti </em>is equally significant in <em>Panchakarma</em> treatment. As the <em>Panchakarma</em> treatment itself takes pleasure in <em>Chikitsa </em>in general. Classic literature places a strong emphasis on the importance of this type of care and highlights the wide range of its suitability. However, the origin of the word <em>Basti</em> lies on the reality that the Basti Yantra or the instrument that administers the medication materials consist of animal bladders or <em>Basti.</em> Consequently, as Sushruta and others have also mentioned,all those medications or medications that are inserted via the rectum with assistance belong to the group known as <em>Basti.</em></p>Rucha Joshi

<p>Rasashastra is a branch of ayurveda that includes manufacturing of medicinal Preparation which contains Herbs, Metal and Herbo-Metallic preparation with dosage, indications, contraindication with possible adverse effects if medicines were not used or correctly prepared as per classics. In characteristic medicines contains basic three classes 1. <em>Audhbhij</em> (Plant origin) 2. <em>Jangam</em> (Animal origin) 3. <em>Parthiv</em> (Metal origin). Plant origin items were broadly utilized in all branches of Ayurveda compare to Metal and minerals. India have substantially more metal, for example, – Arsenic, lead, zinc, copper and so forth, which are utilized for treatment for different illnesses, Parada is one of them. Sanskara literally means a procedure by use of which there is enhancement in properties. Sanskara is the qualitative alteration done for improvement, enrichment, modification, lowering the bad effects. Parada due to its mystical importance in Ayurveda and Rasa shastra is briefly used for two purposes; <em>Deha-vaad</em> (Body rejuvenation) and <em>Dhatu-vaad</em> (Occult, Alchemical and Spiritual upliftment). To completely attain all the purposes, Ayurveda texts inform about <em>Ashthadasha-Sanskar</em> (Eighteen processes) required to purify mercury. Of these, only the first eight are recommended for <em>Dehavaad </em>(medicinal purposes) while the next ten steps are used only for purifying mercury in such a way that it can transform Lower metals into higher metals like gold (<em>Loh-vaad</em>). All Rasashastra texts contains different material and method for <em>Ashta-sanskar</em> So, in this current article we attempted to do the Review of <em>Ashta-sanskar</em> of Parad.</p>Sneha Ravindra Chadiwal Sneha ChadiwalPargunde Sheela Dinesh

2024-10-122024-10-12124The Significance of nidra veg in Ayurveda: Understanding Its Role in trayopasthambha
https://ayurlog.com/index.php/ayurlog/article/view/1242
<p>In Ayurveda, the concept of trayopasthambha refers to three essential pillars of health: ahara (nutrition), nidr? (sleep), and brahmacharya (self-restraint). Among these, nidra—or sleep—holds a special place, particularly when we consider nidra veg, which is our natural impulse to sleep. This article explores the vital role of nidra veg in promoting overall health, highlighting how it contributes to rejuvenation, balance among the doshas, mental clarity, and emotional stability. By recognizing the importance of nidra within the framework of trayopasthambha, we can see how it helps in preventing disease, supporting digestion, and enhancing our overall sense of well-being. Acknowledging nidra veg as a fundamental aspect of Ayurvedic philosophy reminds us to honor our body's natural urges for optimal health and vitality.</p>Vijay Ingle Sanjay M.

2024-10-122024-10-12124A A Clinical trial to study the effect of Ramraksha stotra Mantra as Daivavyapashray Chikitsa in the management of Chittodvega –A pilot study.
https://ayurlog.com/index.php/ayurlog/article/view/1234
<p>One of the defination of research is the logical rethinking to revalidate the old facts. Knowledge refers to the acquisition of information and facts, on the other hand, Wisdom involves the application of knowledge along with experience, insights and good judgement which later develops Shradhha ie Faith. In India, since Vaidik times, we practice different Mantra’s for different purpose. Being a divine science, Ayurveda has explained Mantra chikitsa on Manas roga under Daivavyapashray chikitsa. Mantra’s are the high energy sounds which is the effective treatment of Karmaja Manas vyadhi with its Prabhavjanya Karma (Action) providing Mental stability. Every Mantra are having a specific action (Falshruti). Chittodvega is one of the type of Manas Roga in which person has anxious state of mind with fear and worries. Ayurveda has explained Satvavajay chikitsa and Daivavyapashraya chikitsa in Manas Roga. In India, Lord Rama is worshiped since ancient times as he is the ideal example of Achar Rasayan (Code of Conduct) mentioned in Satvavajay chikitsa. (Also called as Purushottam). So, Ramraksha Stotra Mantra which is the combination of both Daivavyapashraya chikitsa and Satvavajay chikitsa can definitely fulfil the definition of Swastha mentioned in Ayurveda ie happiness of body, mind and spirit.</p>Yashashri Arun Vitonde Yashashri Arun Vitonde
