Theory on Raseshwara Darshana
Abstract
Ayurveda is closely related to Indian philosophy, particularly the spirit of Darshana. Rasashastra features a unique philosophical system known as Raseshwara Darshana. This philosophy differs from other Darshanas in that, while all three Darshanas generally believe that Mukti (liberation) is achieved only after death or through Samadhi (meditative absorption), Raseshwara Darshana does not accept this concept. Instead, Raseshwara Darshana holds that Mukti can be attained while still alive by achieving Pindastairyam through the practice of Paradaseva. Parada, considered the best Rasayana (rejuvenative), is believed to increase life longevity. However, since the body cannot tolerate excessive Parada in its raw form, it must undergo appropriate Samskara (purification) to make it suitable for use.
