Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
Since human body is a part of this universe, whatever is available in the universe, those are also present in the human body. Ayurveda is a life science. It has many own principles, among them Panchamahabhut principle is base for Ayurveda, and it is accepted worldwide. It is seen that there is a strong similarity between the Panchamahabhut and components of the earth. Like Panchamahabhut earth also contains five components. I.e. atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, mantle and core. Prithvi mahabhut contains properties of all previous mahabhuta, similarly lithosphere interacts with other components of earth. On close observation it is seen that predominance of properties and action of Akash and Vayu mahabhut are seen in atmosphere, Jala in hydrosphere, Agni in mantle and core, Prithvi in lithosphere and Vayu makes motion in all strata of the earth. It shows similarity of panchamabhut and earth. Till date total no. Of elements discovered are 112. Out of them, only 26 elements are responsible for cent percent constitution, physical structure, as well as chemical and biological functions of the human body. These 26 elements present in the earth as well as in the human body are classified into Panchamahabhut.
