ValGestka Darsana ‘The Vatesika Daréana was writen by kantda. Kanada was the son of Aulukya niahari of KaSyapa gtra, Hence Kanada was called “Aulukya', s0 also the Vaigesika Darsana as Aulukya Darna, ‘As Kanda satisfied Maheswara by eating Kapas (para- rmnus) he was popularly known as Kanida, Bhigavat Pada de- scribed him as “Kanabhuk’, which means one who feds on kanas Alcan recognise al the Padartas inthe sutight and ditfer- ‘entiate between two things. But ow oruldka recognises and dif ferentiates the Padarthas in night or darkness also, Hence itis called Aulukya Darsana.

The Darfanat-Sitkhya Vaitesika etc have their influence not only on Ayurveda but on all contemporialsci- ‘As all the DarGanas were written by the seers having equal knowledge of Ayurveda as well as Darfanas and atthe same time the theories of DarSanas were also influenced by Ayurveda Mainly the Tatwika Vivecana of Saakhya and Nyaya Daréanas sally influenced the theories of Ayurveda. Some scholars opine that some of the theories mentioned in Ayurveda were adopted from DarSanas and incorporated them in the same way in Ayurve és, Butitis not true. Though some concepts were adopted from ‘Sanktya and Nyaye Daréana, they were incorporated in accord ance with Ayurveda. For example, though Caraka has described the evolution the Darsanika Psa bhi of Pada Vina 9 ‘ory as that of from Sasikhya Darsana, he mentioned only 24 Tat- was, instead of 25 Tatwas. ‘Stknya DarSana states that Indriyas were born out of ‘Ahatara, Whereas in view of Caraka and Susrua Indriyas were ‘born out of Paca Mahi Bhotas. Thus they substantiate the Paf- a Bhoutka Siddhanta, ‘Though Caraka adopted Dravya and other categories (Pada tha) from Vaitesika Daréana, while classifying the Padirthas, he described them in a significant way. As such the topics were cor- ‘elated with that of various Daranas 1, Saikhya Dargana and Ayurveda ‘The following points confirm the relation between Séakhya argana and Ayurveda. 2) Description of Pramtna : Sankhya Darsana accepts and describes three Pramanas, vz, Pratyaksa, Anumna, Aptopadesa, Which are the means to acquire complete, relevant knowledge of an object. Caraka in Ayurveda states that a disease can be diag- noised withthe help ofthe above three Pramanas. ‘b)Prayojana Samatwa : Samkhya Darsana describes three varieties of miseries, viz. (1) Adhyatmika (2) Adhi daivika (3) ‘Adhi Bhoutka. The main purpose of Sankhya Darfanais that a person atains Moksa; if he is completely relieved from the above miseries, Sunkhya states the techniques fom relieving the above miseries and the techniques for attaining Moksa. AS such the ‘main purpose of Ayurveda s also Moksa. Ayurveda classified the diseases into thre types, viz, Adhyatmika diseases, Adhi Bhouti- ‘ea diseases, Adhi Daivika diseases. Ayurveda states that by re- Tieving from the tree types of diseases, one can attain Moksa. It escrbes the techniques from relieving the above three types of diseases. Thus the main purpose of Ayurveda and Stdkhya ‘DarSanais identical » Pada Vinina «© Tatwa Samanatwa (Equality of Tatwa): Basic compo- nents (Realms) or Tatwas for evolution are intial both in Ay- vurveda and Sankhya Dariana. In Saikhya Darfana 25 Tatwas were described, while in Ayurveda 24 Tatwas were described. In ‘Ayurveda the Purugatatwa was included in Prakr tatwa and thus mentioned as 24 Tatas, 4) Poruga Viveeana : Purusa was descriminated in Ayurve i, a well sin Skhya Dara, Susruta sated that'Bahuvast Puruse (purus are innumerable) while in Sahkhya Darfana also ‘mentioned as, Purusa Bahutwam Siddhan. ©) Parinama Vada : The Parinama vada (transformation theory) of evolution is identical both in Ayurveda and Sada Daréans, The 23 Tatwas are the transformation of Prakrttatwa. In Ayurveda tis tated thatthe Ras, Rakta, tc. Dtus are rans formed from each Dat 1 Satkarya Vida : Ayurveda adopted the theory of Satkirya fom Sakhya Durfana. Satkirya vida means, ‘Karya exits in Kirapa before its manifestation. Kérya is Anuropa of ‘Karana, without the existence of Karya in Kaan, that particular arya cannot be manifested. For Example- Tila taila (Katya) exists in Tila (Karan). Hence the Tila tila is produced from the Til. Inthe same way the Ghata (pot) is produced from the clay or mrtika. Both Ay. urveds and Siakhya Daréana state that sate produced from Sat, In Ayurveda also it is stated that Jwara (fever) is manifested from ‘wara Nidina only. Inthe same way all the diseases are manifest from thee respective Nina only. 1) Description of Trigunas: Satwo, Raja, Tamo gunas (the three aributes) which are also desribed in Ayurveda are identical to Dartanas. Darian Pata bhomi of Pada Vijitina a4 2. Ayurveda and Vaigesika Dargana ‘The Vaifesika Dardana firs of all described the Padarthas in oul. Significantly the Vigesa Padartha was described in an ex- clusive way. Hence tis called Vaisesika Dartana. Though direct, reference of Vaisesika Saba is not available in Caraka and Suseu- 1a itis understood that, some points were taken from Vaisesika Daréana. ‘Ayurveda also described the six Padarthas as in Vaitesika DDargana but classification of the Padarthas and thei order is en- rly diferent from Vaigesika Dargana. In Vaigesika Darsana the ‘Siminya Padirtha indicates the Jat or the race only, Whereas in ‘Ayurveda specially in view of Caraka, Samanya indicates the in creasing and decreasing of Dbdtus and maintenance of the normal cy of dosas. Hence the Samanya Padartha was classified as (1) Dravya Samanya (2) Guna Sémdnya (3) Karma Samdnya, in Car- ka Sarbits. Paramanu vada (Atomic theory) is on ofthe eminent theo- Fis in Vaiesika Darsana. According to this theory the compo- nent or constituent pat of every Padarta exists wit invariable ‘concomitance. Caraka accepted the existence of Paramanus in the body. He stated that the minute pars ofthe body ar innumerable and invisible, as they ae in paramanu form. Itcan be considered that the kana or cell mentioned in mod- ern science and the paramanu mentioned by Carakais identical. \Vaitesikas mentioned about the existence of Atma, but kept quiet about the existence of God or Iswara, while SuSruta states that Prakm is God. He compared Jatharagni with Kwara, ‘Though gunas or atributes are taken fom Vaitesika Darka- ‘a, Caraka added 17 more gunas and mentioned them as forty one in number. Caraka classified the Forty one gunas in Four 2 Path Vijina \ypes, vz, (1) Vigesa gunas, 2) Karmanya Simanya guna, (3) Parsi Sanya gunas, (2) Adhyatmika gues, Vagbhata, the author of Asta Srhgraa added $ more altibutes or gunas vit, Dharma, Adharma, Satwa, Ra, Tama and mentioned them a5 46 in number. Nyiya Dargana and Ayurveda “Though the word Nyaya was not used in Ayurvedic treatises, CCaraka described the theories of Nylya Darkana in detail. Nyaya Daana gives importance to Pramanas, that too to Anumina pramina. Hence Nyaya Dasana is defined as 4: ad set = ‘According to Ayurveda the wily of Pramana is mostly in the diagnosis of the diseases and in eeatment. Pramnas were sdopted in Ayurveda fom NyBya Dark Ayurveda alo class fied Anuminapramana into thee, asin Nyiya Darkana. Tadvidy8 ‘samibasha, Sambhasha parishat, varieties of Parshas, Forty four ‘Vida margas, mode of discussion, et, topics were taken from Nyaya Dariana, The description of Navakarana Dravyas is also taken from Nyaya Darsana ‘The en ypes of Karya Abinivthi Ghatak, vz (1)Krana (2) Karana (3) Kaya yoni) Karya (5) Kya phala (6) Anuband- ha (7) Dea (8) Kala (9) Praveti (10) Upaya, ar also adopted from ‘Nylya Dasana ‘The Tantayukts which were described first of all in Nyaya Darsana were also adopted in Ayurveda. Ayurveda aso described the sinten Padirihas of Nya Darna in Vida mirgas. ‘Yoga Daréana and Ayurveda ‘The Praménas (Pratyaksa, Anuména, Aptopadets), nid, ‘Smt, Abhyisa, Ewara Samdnatwa, Astasidahis, viz, Anima, ‘Garima tc, were mentioned equally in both Ayurveda and Yogs Darfana.
