Looking Swabhawaparambada through Modern Point of view
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Pharmacology & Pharmacotherapeutics (IJRPP) - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
In Ayurveda a special emphasis has been given to the concept of Swabhawaparambada (Natural Destruction). Swabhawaparambada has been described in 16th chapter of Charka Sutrasthana that is “Chikitsaprabhritiya adhyaya”. Except Charaka Samhita the detail description of Swabhawaparambada has been found not up to the mark. The meaning of Swabhawaparambada is “natural destruction”. The meaning of uparam is destruction therefore Swabhawaparam means natural destruction. In the Jalpakalpataru tika of Charka Samhita, acharya Gangadhara has mentioned that there is natural destruction of dharma and rupa and there is no cause behind their destruction. Chakrapani has clarified regarding the matter and said that “destruction without any cause is known Swabhawaparambada”.
