Haripal Budhwar*

.

Abstract

Life according to Ayurveda is a conglomeration of the four interdependent components namely, the body (Shareera), the sensory and motor faculties (Indriya), the mind (Satva), and the soul (Atma). A healthy life necessitates a perfect complementary support of all these factors and thus the concept of health encompasses physical, mental, sensory and spiritual domains. It is also indicated that a person with Swastha Mana (healthy mental state), Prasanna aatmendriya (delighted soul with proper functioning of sense organs) along with sama dosha (well balanced state of dosha), Sama Agni (proper metabolism), Sama Dhatu (proportionate body organs and tissues) and Sama Kriya (proper physiology) is perfectly healthy.

Keywords: Shareera, Indriya, Atma, Swastha, Aatmendriya, Dhatu.
