ABSTRACT

The present study entitled the conceptual study on our daily routine works towards healthy life, so called the daily regimens or the Dincharya with special references to the Brihattrayi, also called as greater ancient literatures of Ayurveda viz Charak Samhita, Sushruta Samhita and Ashtanga Hridayam, has been specially undertaken to define and evolve objective parameter for the entity of Regimen which is a very important concept of Ayurveda. Although the production of many diseases depends upon this pathogenic factor, but still there is no objective parameter to identify the entity. Life style, in the ancient times was a little bit different than that of today. During ancient time, requirements of a person were less and most of the people had wealth. Man was able to look after his health and used to spend some time for keeping himself healthy. So they were following some specific measures, mentioned in daily regimen like regular oil massage to the body, classical bathing etc. In today’s hectic and materialistic life style rarely person get the time to think of his own life style. Hence many people think that olden life style is not possible to adopt. But this is wrong. We should at least understand the importance and benefits of ideal life style and all should try to follow those possible regimens as mentioned. Ayurveda explains each regimen in detail. Certain traditional literatures and Brihattrayi also describe elaborately regarding various regimens. From them, we get detailed information of the method of performance, time of performing, indication and contra indication, pre and post per formative procedures to maintain excellent health. Body and Mind both should be healthy in all the aspect with following the daily regimen mentioned in above said books.
