Twacha is dominent Dnyanendriya which occupies all other Indriyas and whole body. Twak sharir has its great importance regarding various vyadhies and their etiopathogenesis, hence studying the anatomy of Twak sharir and its applied aspect is important. Twak layers has described by our acharyas. Each layer has importance for specific vyadhi. Sushrutacharya has described seven layers, which is more accurate description compare to other Aacharya. Dr. Bhaskar Govind Ghanekar has compared these layers with modern science.
