INTEGRATING AYURVEDIC TRADITIONS WITH MODERN MEDICAL PRACTICES: A COMPARATIVE STUDY
The Indian medical system known as Ayurveda was developed during the Vedic era. Since ancient times, Ayurvedic knowledge has been documented and disseminated in Sanskrit. Ayurveda literally translates to "the science of life." Whereas Veda alludes to Knowledge, Ayus refers to Life. The two main authoritative texts are the Sushruta Samhita and the Charaka Samhita. Ayurveda takes a comprehensive approach to health and homeostasis, taking into account the environment, the soul, the mind, the emotions, and the physical body.
Ayurveda is a firm believer in the idea that humans are but a little part of this vast universe. Ayurvedic notions like Panchamahabhuta, Tridosha, Sapta Dhatu, Srotas, and Prakriti Purusha are among the intriguing ideas to learn about. At the atomic, molecular, cellular, biochemical, organ system, organism, and population levels, these notions depict an organism. This essay aims to emphasize the significance of Ayurvedic fundamentals in respect to modern science.
