Abstract

Nyaya Darshana and Ayurveda being contemporary sciences have influenced and complemented each other. The concepts of Nyaya Darshana are selectively incorporated in Ayurveda to suit its objectives viz. Swasthya Rakshana and Roga Prashamana. Most of the concepts of the Nyaya are accepted as such, some are modified for the medical sciences. Application of the concept of Nyaya in conjunction with Ayurveda enhances the therapeutic application of contemporary system of healing. Ayurveda is a Sarvadarshan Parishada Shastra which means this system of health science is related to various Darshanas. There are similarities of some concept of Charaka Samhita and Nyaya Darshana Shastra, but as the Prayojana (aim) of both Shastra are same into some extent. As Charak Samhita is a main text book of Ayurveda so a study of the influence of Nyaya Darshana on classics like Charaka Samhita should be analysed. In this study we will try to correlate various concepts of Charak Samhita and Nyaya philosophy.
