ACHARA RASAYANA: A NOVEL PERSPECTIVE
Journal Title: Journal of Biological and Scientific Opinion - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
Ayurveda, the science of life explains the daily regimens in terms of ahara (food), vihara (life style) and achara (mental attitude) which will help in preventive and promotive health. Rasayana is one among the eight major specialties of holistic health science ‘Ayurveda’ and achara rasayana is one among the components of rasayana. Following proper achara and vichara is nothing but achara rasayana. The practical importance of this achara rasayana was well recognized by the stalwarts of Ayurveda as it not only increases the life span but also increases the quality of life of an individual. Before administering any rasayana, body must be purified with certain purificatory procedures to get its desired effect. The complete effect of rasayana cannot be achieved just by purifying the body; there must be purity of mind also which can be achieved by following achara rasayana.
