Abstract


The concept of Dosha Dhatu Mala Samayogavahitva is fundamental to understanding Ayurvedic physiology and pathology. It refers to the balanced integration of the Doshas (biological energies), Dhatus (tissues), and Malas (waste products), which are essential for maintaining health and preventing disease. The equilibrium of these three components ensures the smooth functioning of bodily systems, while their imbalance leads to disease manifestation. This paper reviews the classical Ayurvedic texts to explore the role of Dosha-Dhatu-Mala in health and disease, with an emphasis on their dynamic interplay and significance in treatment protocols. It also draws parallels between Ayurvedic principles and modern physiological concepts of homeostasis.
