Vaishnavi Shankar Gore* Arun U. Bhatkar
ABSTRACT Ayurveda, “the science of life,” deals with various dimensions of human Health. Rasayana is one of the eight major branches of Astanga Ayurveda. Ayurveda mainly focuses on Prevention promotion and treatment of disease. To achieve the aim, it is essential to follow the principles of health like Dincharya, Rutucharya, Ratricharya, Sadvrutta and Achara Rasayana etc. Rasayana therapy also provides the same by promoting health and immunity. Achara Rasayana is an Adravyabhuta type of Rasayana in which no medicinal measures are taken into consideration. It increases Oja, which is responsible for the immunity of the body and mind, which is an essential factor for maintenance of a healthy life. Knowledge of Achara Rasayana helps to avoid Pragyaparadha, which is one of the Trividha Hetu and is responsible for manifestation of diseases. Achara Rasayana calms the mind, which is necessary for developing spiritual health. Application of guidelines in day-to-day life results in promotion of the Dhatus and increases the quantity and quality of Oja, which is responsible for the maintenance of immunity. In this article we will discuss about Achara Rasayana and its role in preventive, curative and promotive aspect of Health. Thus, we can conclude that Achara Rasayana strengthens physical, mental, social, and spiritual aspects of health. Keywords: Ayurveda, Achara Rasayana, Health, Oja, Immunity.
