Marmacikitsa- Basic Tenets in Ayurveda and Therapeutic Approaches -Second Edition

Marmacikitsa is one among the various ancient Indian traditions which can be of great benefit to mankind. It is based on deep understanding of the design and working of the human body which utilizes various points or areas of the body for preventive and therapeutic health benefits using various manipulative techniques to complex procedures. Marma, by definition are the various seats or specific locations of Prana (life force) in the body. This knowledge was as ancient as the Vedic literature and all the major compendiums of Ayurveda & the various ancient literature of ancient India such as the Mahabharata have numerous references of marma. The knowledge of marma was kept highly secretive owing to its ability to do harm to any individual if wrongly practiced or used for willful infliction of injury to opponents and was thus transferred from a learned master to a well-tested disciple after a rigorous course of study for long duration under him in a phased manner in order to prevent this science from going into wrong hands. This secretive nature is one of the reasons which lead to the gradual diminution of this branch of knowledge from the general healing practices. But even now, there are selected few individuals who are well versed of this ancient art and keeping the tradition alive and also propagating this ancient knowledge. This book is the outcome of such an initiative of the Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences where such knowledge, both theoretical and applied were documented from various experts of Marmacikitsa and compiled so as to preserve this knowledge for future generations and bring it to the mainstream of Ayurveda clinical practice.

Dravyanamakaranighantuh

Dravyanāmakara Nighaṇṭu, is an unpublished Nighaṇṭu (lexicon) of Ayurveda authored by the eminent Bhīṣma Vaidya and critically edited and commented upon by the legendary Ayurveda scholar, Vd. S.D. Kamat. The Dravyanāmakara Nighaṇṭu is a remarkable work that serves as an appendix to the Dhanvantari Nighaṇṭu, specifically dedicated to the study of homonyms of plant and drug names. With 182 verses and two additional colophon verses, this text offers critical insights into the study of homonyms, a subject of immense importance to scholars and practitioners of Dravyaguṇa, Rasaśāstra, Bhaiṣajya Kalpanā, and related disciplines. While the homonyms chapter is included in prose form in the published edition of the Dhanvantari Nighaṇṭu (by Ānandāśrama, Pune), this standalone publication enriches the study and understanding of this vital aspect of Ayurvedic pharmacology.
