Ayurveda is the science of life. It offers advice on how to keep healthy people well and how to treat sick people's problems. Fasting is one of the ten langhana (those that promote lightness of the body) therapies and one of the daivavyapashraya (spiritual) therapies in Ayurveda. Ayurveda also claims that fasting stimulates the digestive system and results in the digestion of ama-dosha (metabolic poisons). Upavasa is a means to come closer to the all-powerful from a spiritual and yogic perspective. Fasting stimulates autophagy, according to scientists. In 2016, Yoshinori Ohsumi, a Japanese cell scientist, won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his studies on autophagy, a process through which cells recycle and regenerate their contents. Numerous research that has been published suggests that fasting has benefits for neuroprotection and ageing.

Pain can be described as any physical and mental suffering or discomfort caused by illness or injury. The International Association for the Study of Pain defines pain as "an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience arising from actual or potential tissue damage." Pain always lands a person in discomfort and interferes with daily tasks, regardless of severity or location. Different terminologies viz. vedana, shool, ruja, etc. are used for pain in Ayurvedic classics. It is mentioned as a premonitory sign as well as a symptom of many diseases. According to Acharya Sushruta “Vatat rute nasti ruja” i.e., the root cause of all types of pain is Vata dosha. The effectiveness and safety of the therapeutic drugs that are currently utilised to relieve pain are often limited. Therefore, there is an urgent need for research into novel analgesics that are safe, efficacious, and tolerated well. Description of a variety of therapeutic approaches for pain management is available in the Ayurvedic classical text. Agnikarma, Jalaukavacharana, Marma chikitsa, and other Ayurvedic treatment modalities provide immediate pain relief without untoward effects. Along with these therapies, there are descriptions of many other therapeutic procedures such as Vedhankarma, Bastikarma, Lepa, Snehana, Swedana, and internal use of medicine in Ayurvedic classical texts. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the concept of pain and its practical utility, which necessitates the development of pain management techniques recognised in Ayurveda.

Background: The Vedic scriptures say there is an inextricable link between the human and universe. The very elements of human life exist outside in the cosmos as well. The components of the body at the cellular and sub-cellular levels are innumerable due to overabundance, over-minuteness and transcending perception. Developmental anatomy is studied in the " embryology " branch of modern science. Embryology is the study of the embryo/foetus from the moment of its inception up to the time when it is born as an infant. In Indian literature, the history of embryology can be linked to the Vedas, Mahabharata, Buddhist literature, Upanishad Purana, etc. The 'Garbhavkranti understanding of the garbha factor taking part in the formation of garbha has been dealt with mainly based on material available in Ayurveda and other allied resources. Therefore, because of the above, we can say the treatise of Ayurveda formerly validated the evidence of the development of a foetus in modern medical science.Aim and objectives: Comparative review of Masanumasik Garbha vikas karma concepts with special reference to embryology.

Endocrine disorders are most common in India, of which thyroid disorders represent a major subset. Thyroid dysfunction is rising at an alarming rate in the Indian population. Hypothyroidism & hyperthyroidism constitute the maximum percentage of thyroid disease in India. The thyroid gland fails to produce enough thyroid hormone due to structural or functional impairment. The incidence of thyroid disorders is increasing daily, so there is a need to increase demand to treat thyroid disease by the Ayurvedic method, as they are entirely safe and natural. In this article, effort is made to review some Ayurvedic diets, such as medicines, yoga, and pranayama, towards the correction of tridosha and the function of the thyroid gland.

Nyayas (Maxims) are perceptive tools for many concepts. It is an expression of the general truth or principle. It conveys the ideas of the author easily and clearly. These Nyayas possess simple language to perceive the concepts. In ancient days, people used to understand the concepts by applying Nyayas wherever it looked complicated, and it may be related to Samhita Sutras, commentaries or other literature. Similarly, Ayurveda has also adopted many Nyayas to explain the concepts. Mainly, the commentators of Samhitas have taken the help of Nyayas to convey the hidden meaning.

Katigata Vata or Lumbar spondylosis produces low back pain radiating towards the gluteal region of the leg and further towards the great toe. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, tingling numbness, difficulty walking, etc. No unique entity can be connected to Lumbar Spondylosis in Ayurveda. Under Vataja Nanatmaka vikara, it is classified as Katigraha (Stiffness in the lower back). Hereby presenting a case of 62 years old male who visited our institute with the presenting complaints of Katishool (low back ache), Sakashta Chankraman (Difficulty walking), Pain radiating towards the back, and an MRI Lumbar Spine which reported Osteoporosis at the Posterocentral disc protrusion at L2-L3, L4-L5 with L3 and L5 nerve root compression. He decided to undergo Ayurvedic panchakarma therapy along with Shaman Aushadhi. The treatment schedule of 21 days was planned to include therapy of Panchtikta Ksheera Basti along with shaman Aushadhi. Tikta Ksheera Basti tried to reduce the signs and symptoms of patients with Lumbar spondylosis after taking all these aspects into account. The following aspects of low back pain, tingling in the lower back and lower limbs, stiffness in the lower back and lower limbs, joint movements in the lower back and lower limbs, and the Straight Leg Rising Test (SLRT) were evaluated. Before and after administering Basti Karma, the data were gathered.

The utility of Ayurveda science is to preserve a healthy individual's health and to treat a patient's ailment. Ayurveda defines health as a balanced condition of dosha, dhatu, agni, mala and a pleasant state of soul, sense organs, and mind. In today's contemporary environment, there is less emphasis placed on health. In the midst of a flurry of labor, lower socioeconomic group members lack basic hygiene, literacy, and the usage of undercooked food or incorrect cleaning of food items, among other things. This is the main reason of Abhyantar Krimi (helminthiasis) in children, which is ignored by both parents and physicians as it is one of the common pediatric problems faced worldwide especially in tropical and subtropical geographical region. Helminthiasis is noticed, when it became severe and cause harm to the children. According to recent worldwide estimates, more than a quarter of the world's population is affected with one or more parasitic illnesses, the most frequent of which is round worm, Ascaris lumbricoides. Ayurveda classics have so many references of helminthiasis named as Krimi roga. Acharyas states 20 type of Krimi classified as Bahya and Abhyantar in which helminthiasis can be correlated with Pureeshaj Krimi. Krimighna (anti helminthic) medicines are available in market, causing side effects like nausea, vomiting, lethargy, etc. Today’s world, Medicinal plants are gaining relevance in the current day due to the different negative effects of modern medication and the less adverse effects of Indian medicinal herbs. Current article presented by the introduction of Pureeshaj Krimi and their management with herbs.

Acharya Charaka introduced the concept of Indriya pancha panchak to explore the physiology of sense organs. Indriya pancha panchaka assembles twenty-five structural and functional components related to the Indriya (sense faculty). It consists of five sense faculties (pancha janendriyas), five sense materials (pancha indriya dravya), five seats of sense organs (pancha indriya adhisthana), five objects of sense faculties (pancha indriya artha) and five sense perceptions (pancha indriya buddhi). Five sense perceptions result from conjugating the soul, mind, sense organs and their respective objects. In light of modern science, sense organs are the specialised units of the human body that can transform information about the external environment and inside environment into a form suitable for processing by the central nervous system. Sensory organs are equipped with specialised receptors that get stimulated by light, sound waves, mechanical deformation, temperature change or certain chemicals. The information is transformed through a series of propagated nerve impulses. These neural impulses get transmitted as action potentials via specialised sensory nerves towards the central nervous system that finally arrive at the sensory cortices in the brain. At this site, sensory signals are processed and interpreted. The processes through which we experience and interpret the stimuli are known as sensation and perception. The present paper aims to explore the concept of Indriya pancha panchak critically and highlight its significance in sensation and perception.
