Journal Title: International Journal of Ayurveda and Pharmaceutical Chemistry - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Pinda taila is indicated for external application in the form of abhyanga in the case of vatarakta associated with ruk (pain). A critical analysis of the different references of Pinda taila found in the Ayurvedic classical texts was done to evaluate their similarities and differences. It was observed that the reference of Pinda taila is found in almost all classical textbooks of Ayurveda. Madhucchishta, Manjishta, Sariva and Sarjarasa are the commonly kalka dravya in the preparation of Pinda taila. The reference of Pinda taila in Charaka Samhita, Ashtanga Hridaya, Bhaishajya Ratnavali and Sahasrayoga are very similar to each other. Whereas reference of Pinda taila is found entirely different in Chikitsamanjari and Arogyakalpadrumam.
