My Dear Patients and Readers,
Ayurveda The Ancient Science of Life believes and proves everything in this universe made of the five elements called
Space,Air,Fire,Water and Earth that is Akasha,vayu,agni,jalam and bhoomi.
Thridosha Theory:
In the human body these five elements comprised into three
life forces called vatha,pitha and kapha.
Kapha Dosha is made of Earth and water element
Pitha Dosha is made of Fire element
Vatha Dosha is made of Air and Space element.
Saptha Dhathus:
Then the next is seven major constituents of Body called
“saptha Dhathus”
They are as follows – Rasa,Raktha,Mamsa,Meda,Asthi,Majja and
Sukra.
Thrimalas:
And the next is the waste materials which is eliminating out
from the body after digesting the food and turning into seven body constituents one
after another. And finally the waste throwing out as Sweda(sweat),Moothra(urine),Pureesha(stools)
So we can say these are major part of our body ,that is
Three Doshas,Seven Dhathus and Three Malas.
The above said five elements are the basic elements in the
universe as everything is made out of this but in different proportion.
The Three Doshas in the human body also varies person to
person it can be in seven forms according to the text “ashtanga hrudayam” they
are as follows.
Vatha type
Pitha type
Kapha Type,
Vatha – Pitha type
Vatha- kapha type,
Pitha – Kapha type
And
Vatha- Pitha- Kapha type.
According to their dosha constitution level they change in
size,shape,complexion,voice,Luck,behavior, attitudes,fear of God,Likes and
Dislikes,Diseases prone to ,etc..
The above said nature we can assess by seeing,touching,from
the words,voice etc..
We will continue in coming blog posts.
