ABSTRACT

Satvavjay chikitsa helps by regulating the thought process, by replacing the ideas, by channelling the presumptions, by polishing the objectives, by proper guidance & advice for taking right decision. Ayurveda is a spiritual science, having divine roots. As per the Ayurvedic texts Brahma, the Lord of Creation himself first imparted the knowledge of Ayurveda. It was practiced by the Devatas first and then passed down to „Bhu-loka‟ to relieve mankind of all sufferings. The term Daiva vyapashraya is concerned with all the unknown circumstances, which are beyond the purview of reasoning In Ayurveda, Deva has been used in the various senses like unknown past deeds, etc. The evils of past life karmas cannotbe cured by the scientific methods of medicine because the diseases so happened are related to past deeds. As Ayurveda accepts purva janama, it is rational need to device methods, which can effectively deal with Daivakrut diseases. Charaka says Karma that has done in Punarjama isconsidered as Daiva. The diseases that are caused by such aneffect are known as Daivakrta. These Daivavyapashraya methods create confidence and remove the fear and pessimistic tendencies. It may in someway indirectly help the patient in gathering confidence. It works at the level of mind and there by influence the body. Ayurveda explains the spiritual therapy for the mental disease in a unique way. It acts through vibrations which stimulates the cosmic consciousness to heal so its direct effect is invisible.
