Future After BAMS Course

Aims & Objectives

The traditional Hindu medical system is known as ayurveda (Sanskrit:, yurveda; yus 'life' + veda '(holy) knowledge'). It is recognised as the Athra-Upaveda veda's or sub-scripture. An ancient medical system with roots in the Indian subcontinent is called ayurveda. Ayurvedic methods that have undergone globalisation and modernization are under the category of supplemental or alternative medicine. Ayurveda therapies and practises, which are numerous, have been incorporated into general health applications as well as, in certain circumstances, into medical use in the West. It is predicated on the idea that mental, physical, and spiritual wellness are intricately entwined. Its major objective is to promote health, not to treat illness. However, some treatments may target particular health issues.
According to Hindu mythology, Lord Dhanvantari, the doctor to the Gods, is credited with creating Ayurveda. According to astronomical data found in ancient Vedic books, Ayurveda was being used well before 4000 BC. It is certain that thousands of years ago, Ayurveda was well developed and widely used throughout India. The primary writings of classical Ayurveda begin with descriptions of how medical knowledge was passed from the Gods to sages, then to human doctors. The Charaka Samhita, Susruta Samhita, and Ashtanga Hridayam are considered to be the three most important Ayurvedic writings. These books examine the five elements of earth, water, fire, air, and ether, as well as the three energy channels, in relation to the human body (Tridosha: Kapha, Pitta, Vata roughly translated as – water, fire, and air).
Main objectives of Ayurveda have been divided into two aspects namely:

  • 1. Swasthasya Swathya Rakshanam – To protect and maintain the health of a healthy person (Preventive and Social medicine)
  • 2. Aturasya Vikar Prashamanam – To treat the disease and giving relief to sick person (Therapeutics)

"Health is a condition of total physical, mental, and social well-being and not only the absence of disease or disability," according to the World Health Organization (WHO). It is not the goal of life; rather, it is a resource for daily living. A healthy idea is one that emphasises both physical capabilities and social and personal resources. A healthy society is a conglomeration of people and families from various socioeconomic levels. Health is influenced by a variety of factors, including air (oxygen), food, water, clothing, habits, hygiene, exercise, shelter, and rest.
The purpose of Ayurveda is to protect the health of the healthy and to alleviate disorders of the diseased. Ayurveda has two different aspects viz., the Preventive aspect and the Curative aspect.
