CHARAK SERIES Chapter -1 ( Sutra Sthana ) Deergha Jivitiya Adhyaya Respected Vaidyas, Glad to represent you the next series of Charak Samhita. My hearty thanks to all the readers and sincere request to rest of the Curofians kindly participate in this series to know the Classical Medical books with a different taste of Ayurveda. ......RECAP......... Till now we discussed - 1. The necessity of Ayurveda and its descendance in Earth. 2. Role of Great Sage - Bharadwaj in this descendance process. 3. Importance of AAROGYATA ( Healthy state of Body and Mind) 4. Knowledge transfer procedure from INDRA to BHARADWAJ about TRISUTRA Ayurveda. 5. Detailed description of TRISUTRA ( HETU, LINGA and AUSHADHA SUTRA ) and the convergence of whole Ayurveda in this TRISUTRA. 6. Comparison of TRISUTRA to WHY, WHAT and HOW for easy understanding and relationship between the three are also well established. Now is the time to go into further discussions and rapidly cover the rest portions of 1st Chapter. ........TODAY'S DISCUSSION......... The portions till now we covered in this series reflects that - Initially Earth was free from diseases and hence there is no such need of any science which can solve the problems related to health ( SWASTHA Sharira and Mana i.e. Body and Mind ). But gradually due to environmental changes ( Kala ) , Excessive / Nil / Less indulgence of Sense organs to its functions ( Artha) and Excess / Nil or Less involvement in activities of Body and Mind ( Karma ) by human beings leads to appearance of such conditions which disturb the harmony ( i.e. ROGA or DISEASES). As a result of this, the general public got disturbed and searched solutions to them. So they moved their attentions towards the Rishis or Saints who spent their life for the well fare of others and devoid of any worldly desires. Henceforth, gradually the Saints on behalf of the common public gathered together at Himalayan regions ( may be due to its popularity, holiness and abundance of medicinal plants ) and made several discussions but got no final solutions. So they undergo deep meditations and realised that INDRA is the saviour. They selected " SAINT BHARADWAJ" as their leader and he leaded the whole team, finally became the FIRST MAN who learnt TRISUTRA Ayurveda from INDRA ( The Purusha ). So " SAINT BHARADWAJ" is the BRIDGE between " SWARGALOKA AYURVEDA" and "MARTYALOKA AYURVEDA". I have written the above portions due to realise the importance of Saints ( the knowledgeable persons who always involved in the process of uplift of soul and worried for the well being of the Society ) and their Untiring efforts for the descendance of this unique medicinal system in Earth. ROLE OF SAINT BHARADWAJ ----------- " Tena Aayu Amitan lebhe Bharadwajah Sukhanwitam. Rishibhya Anadhikam Tat cha Shashansa AnabaSheshayan" ---------- After getting the knowledge of Ayurveda, Saint Bharadwaj implemented the RULES on himself and got " Amit" and " SUKHA" Aayu ( i.e. Indefinite Health ). Finally transferred the knowledge to other Saints for the well being of common public. This Shloka is being important because it indirectly denotes the qualities of a " GURU " or " VAIDYA" The qualities as I analysed are - 1. Shrotevya - Means having in-depth theoretical knowledge. 2. Dushta Karma - means having sufficient practical experience ( utilisation of theoretical knowledge) ( As Saint Bharadwaj himself learnt the knowledge deeply and applied on himself first ) 3. Anadhikam - Having no partiality i.e. Saint Bharadwaj shared the exact same knowledge which he gained from INDRA ( add nothing extra by his own ) 4. AnabaSheshayan - No feeling to hide anything i.e. Sharing the same knowledge which he himself got and experienced. ( i.e. I mean to say there is no SECRECY if we want to develop and uplift a Science) Saint Bharadwaj even not hide a bit but told the Same as he gained from " INDRA" So kind request to all Curofians kindly go into the depth of this Important Shloka and try to reflect in your attitude and behaviour to become a " VAIDYA ". This is the essence that I want to share with you all. Finally , Saint Bharadwaj spreaded his knowledge of TRISUTRA AYURVEDA to all the Saints who are interested and those Saints again spreaded his knowledge in their localities for the well being of humanity. !! Astu!! ............PRECAP .............. Tomorrow we will concentrate on Sad Padarth Vijnanam which again simplify the " TRISUTRA". Hope this article is capable of quench the thirst of knowledge gain. With this words for today, I give rest to my mind and pen. Thanks, With Regards, Vaidya Niranjan Ram.

ABC OF : DIFFERENCES BETWEEN COPD VS ASTHMA. MAY BE USEFUL. ** In some respects, the changes in the body that cause shortness of breath are similar between COPD and ASTHMA....... But a number of other COPD-ASTHMA differences set the two conditions apart.......  COPD is an umbrella term used to diagnose people who have chronic bronchitis, emphysema, or a combination of both....... *** CHARACTERISTICS OF ASTHMA :- ASTHMA is a CHRONIC INFLAMMATORY DISORDER OF the AIRWAYS that leads recurrent episodes of SYMPTOMS such as WHEEZING, BREATHLESSNESS, CHEST TIGHTNESS and COUGHING, which COMMONLY occur at NIGHT OR in the EARLY MORNING.  These flare up periods are associated with TRIGGERS that cause obstruction of the airways, which is USUALLY REVERSIBLE. DIAGNOSIS of asthma most COMMONLY occurs DURING CHILDHOOD, in individuals that have a history of dry cough in the night, ALTHOUGH it can present AT ANY AGE....... *** CHARACTERISTICS OF COPD :- COPD is a disease characterized by the PROGRESSIVE OBSTRUCTION OF the AIRWAYS that leads to a REDUCTION IN AIRFLOW and RESPIRATORY FUNCTION. These CHANGES ARE NOT COMPLETELY REVERSIBLE and inhaled noxious particle or gases, such as CIGARETTE smoke, are associated as RISK FACTORS for the condition. DIAGNOSIS of COPD usually occurs in OLDER ADULTS with a HISTORY OF SMOKING or CHRONIC EXPOSURE TO OTHER INHALED IRRITANTS....... ***** There is SOME OVERLAP BETWEEN THE TWO CONDITIONS and it is estimated that APPROXIMATELY 40% of PATIENTS WITH COPD ALSO SUFFER FROM ASTHMA........ HOWEVER, there are SOME DISTINCT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE TWO CONDITIONS, IN THEIR PATHOPHYSIOLOGY, PRESENTATION of symptoms AND the OPTIMAL MANAGEMENT PLANS.......
