Abstract

Ayurveda is not simply the science for treating illness but also the science of life which helps to maintain health. The main aim of Ayurveda is to sustain the health of a healthy individual and treat the illness. In Ayurveda, Sara Pariksha is one among the ten types of methods to examine a patient, stated as Dashvidha Aatura Pariksha. Sara Pariksha chiefly determines the strength of a person that is, of mind and body. Acharya Chakrapani demonstrated Sara as Vishudhatara Dhatu which means the essence of Dhatu. Eight types have been explained by Acharya Charaka, each one characterized by both physical as well as psychological status. For any physician for the purpose of diagnosis of disease there should acquaintance of Tridoshas, Sapta dhatu and Malas etc. Like that knowledge of Sarata is equally important. The present review article mainly focuses on material and importance available on Sara pariksha in Ayurvedic literature.
