Vd. Prasad A. Pachangane* and Vd. Nilesh G. Kulkarni

ABSTRACT

In the ancient period Charaksamhita was the best medical treatise and was written by the high intellect medicos who were classically followed by medical practitioners because of his classical validity and effectiveness. In due course of time, quality of the degree of medical personalities was degraded as a result of which it was required to explore the nut shell keys. Chakrapani Datta had tried to magnify the encapsulated keys with his profound clinical observation and discovered the treasures of Charaksamhita with his commentary. No study has yet been carried out to specify the contribution of Chakrapani regarding “Nyaya” mentioned in Charaksamhita. Therefore this article is carried out to study the same contribution with reference to Charaksamhita.

Keywords: Contribution, Chakrapani, Nyaya, Charaksamhita.
