Abstract

In today’s world, due to more urbanization and up-gradation of civilization there has been an erratic variation with reference to Aahaara, Nidra and Brahmacharya /Abrahmacharya resulting in many diseases. This changed way of life needs to be understood through the concept called Trayopsatambha which helps us to lead a healthy life. Trayopastambha is the basic tool that every human being have, in order to protect the life destined. It has an intimate relation with the three Stambhas of life through which it maintains the Swastya and protects the Ayu. Especially Brahmacharya /Abrahmacharya have got an important role among all and have its influence on the other two Upastambhas also. Hence a thorough understanding of the concept of Brahmacharya /Abrahmacharya is needed with respect to the derivation, definition, classification and its benefits which can greatly contribute to know its importance in our daily life. The scope or importance of the present study is to make aware of the people that Brahmacharya and Abrahmachrya are not two different concepts which means the same (i.e. regulated activities of 11 Indiyas ) and to remove the myths existing around.
