Introduction

The diseases are classified in different ways. The treatment schedule of these classified diseases is specifically divided into pacifying measures and purificatory measures. The diseases which are not cured by the administration of pacifying measures require purificatouy therapy which prevents and cures the diseases meticulously; or both the measures are-performed to arrest the deep seated complicated diseases. Panchakarma is a classical and vast therapeutic procedure and the complete knowledge of each therapy incorporated under Panchakarma is very difficult to perform without the guidance of the qualitative and experienced teacher having sound practice. The pure form of Panchakarma or all the therapies is to be practiced in such a way that in any circumstances respective therapeutics of Panchakarma may be administered with confidence; but prior to that, the pure form of Panchakarma is to be understood categorically to follow the applied form. The institutional knowledge helps the students to mature definitely, but the common application of Pachakarma is easily understood if an individual makes his mind to incline into the practice of Panchakarma. Therapeutically the Panchakarma is broadly explained but in a nut shell it can be studied and practiced with an innovative out look. The broad sense of Panchakarma is confined in this book in such a way so that all the beginners can have an idea with the preliminary experienced knowledge transmitted trough practice. The quantum of diseases is rapidly progressing and the ancient nomenclatures of diseases are to be examined in the modern perspective and the ultimate analysis is to be put with a classical amplification. The diseases in the modern era, apparently identical to that of the ancient nomenclature of the diseases on the basis of subjective parameters, may be encountered with positive coordination of respective purificatory therapeutics as mentioned in the compendium. In this book, the classical concept of Panchakarma is presented with its applied in relation to modern nomenclature of the diseases for the better understanding of the coming generation. The relevancy of modern parameters in clinical practice of panckarma and easily understandable assessment criteria in respect to specific therapy have been annexed in this book. The intension of writing this book will radically explore the momentum of the clinical orientation of Panchakarma.
