Dr. Ram Naresh Singh*

.

Abstract

Ancient surgical science Shalya Tantra is in favour of any techniques that aim to get rid of the things that cause pain or suffering in the body or psyche. The period in which Sushruta underwent his wonderful surgery in mediaeval India is now known in ancient India as "the Golden Age of Surgery." The Association of Indian Plastic Surgeons welcomes this outstanding Ayurvedic physician by placing him in a prominent position within the Association's symbol. In this examination, an effort was made to draw attention to some of the traditional surgical principles from the Sushruta Samhita (Ayurvedic Medical Text) that are still used today mostly unaltered.

Keywords: Ayurved, Shalya Tantra, Surgery, Sushruta.
