Book Description
Center>Preface

Ayurveda is the science of life it may be considered as a scientific literature as the basic principles of Ayurveda which had been put forward thousand of years ago still have the same values. They have not undergone any change revealing they are very true and scientific. Our predecessors had proposed these principles after a very long experience since that time. Ayurveda has been serving the suffering humanity continuously. In Ayurveda it has been mentioned that both Loka and Purusa have the same basic structure. Its any derangement takes place in Loka than our body will also be deranged. Ayurveda is said to be a holistic phenomenon because it treaties the patient as a whole.

Moreover Ayurveda has given more attention towards preventive aspects of the diseases not curative. In the ancient time Ayurveda was on exaltation but as time passed it started deteriorating. During the period of Buddha Indian surgical procedures were heavily deteriorated. The surgeons were termed as Asura the surgery at that time was nothing but horror. In the Moughal and British period Ayurveda again deteriorated unfortunately till now we are not being able to globalize the Ayurveda due to lack of standardization of Ayurvedic drugs and few administrative problems.

After the independence Indian government realized the importance of Ayurveda. The attention of government towards Ayurveda has given a slow but gradual progress of this knowledge. Several institution colleges, research centers had been started. The governing bodies like CCIM and CCRAS had also been established. In this series postgraduate courses came into existence in several colleges and institutes. Thereafter students started to attract towards Ayurveda and the increasing number of students created the trend of competitive examinations for P.G. Entrance, Medical officer screening JRF and others.

For the above examinations the study material currently available is inadequate and not comprehensive. The student has to study all the reference books every time. It requires more energy and more time in relation to yielding. To overcome the above problems I have tried to prepare a classified scientific and comprehensive study material for better yielding and accomplished it in the shape of book. The problems I have encountered during the preparation of P.G. Entrance test induced me to write the book. I have tried to simplify the thing and classified and subject for better remembering.

The book consists of general study of all the subjects of Ayurvedic syllabus multiple choice questions based upon subjects and 30 model test papers of 100 questions each. The questions of model test papers have been taken from different entrance examinations of several institutes/ Colleges and P.S.C. of the country. The concise study of modern medicine is also provided in the book as annexure.

The quality and applicability of the work can only be accessed by the readers. I hope that examinees shall got some extra benefits from the book. There might be some mistakes in the book as human brains has limit. I request the readers to avoid them. I invite suggestions/criticisms from the readers lastly but not the least I am very thankful to Chaukhamba Surbharati Prakashan for encouraging attitude regarding the publication of this book.
