Abstract

Ayurveda, a holistic system of medicine, draws from diverse philosophical traditions, including Darshana Shastra, aligning with their insights while maintaining its unique focus. Saankhya Darshana's concept of "Satkaaryavaada," originally applied to the evolution of the universe, finds resonance in Ayurveda through distinct applications. This paper explores the adaptation of Satkaaryavaada within Ayurvedic principles, highlighting its significance in understanding the interplay of cause and effect in health and wellness.
