Abstract

It is an undoubted fact that applied sciences have developed in leap and bounds in the past two centuries rewarding mankind with materialistic advantages, comforts, objects of entertainment more than they could have dreamt of. In spite of these achievements, there remain many dark corners in ‘Indian science’ awaiting a ray of research or advancement, the screening of which is still under progress. The cut to cut correlation of any branch of Indian medical science to a specific branch of modern medical science is quite impossible owning to the difference in the basic thoughts and as such, so far as Rasashastra is concerned, it cannot be corrected with either chemistry or any other single subject in the present European sense but it may be looked upon as a cumulative form of chemistry, medicine, metallurgy, mineralogy, philosophy etc. In nutshell, Rasashastra may be defined as a science tending to facilitate human beings with the aid of systematic use of metal, minerals and herbal drugs to achieve longevity and ultimately ‗Salvation‘ the supreme goal of life. So it‘s our duty to establish our ancient knowledge of Rasashastra in Modern era with help of modern parameters.
