According to Ayurveda, our body is the abode of Dosha, viz. Vata, Pitta and Kapha. They carry out all bodily functions seamlessly when in unperturbed state. Their vitiation happens in a variety of combinations and at any of the sites in body. [5] Thus, innumerable diseases can possibly happen. In Charaka Samhita, elaborated treatment of all such conditions is mentioned. As per Charaka Samhita, treatment of a disease is nothing but breaking the chain of causative mechanism, i.e., ‘Samprapti Vighata’. Samprapti denotes the pathway of disease causation and manifestation. Its clear knowledge certainly helps in determining the customized treatment as per principles of Ayurveda. In the present work, an effort has been made to compile and discuss various aspects of concept of ‘Samprapti’ described in Charaka Samhita.
Keywords: Samprapti, Nidana Panchaka, Charaka Samhita
