3 CONSTITUENTS OF OUR BODY

According to Ayurveda –“Our body is made up of 3 constituents DOSH, DHATU (metal) & MAL (stool). The meaning of DOSH accordance with our body is VAAT, PITT & KUFF, they are said to be DOSH because these are collectively make our body unclear. DHATU means RAS (juice), RAKT (blood), MAANS (meat), MAID, ASTHI (the bare bones), MAJJA (bone marrow), & SHUKRA (semen), they are collectively called as DHATU because they meant our body. And MAL (stool), means all the excreta of human being, these are said to be MAL because the presence of these material in our body increases the hygiene. Therefore, the mixture of these 3 is builds our body. And more importantly the balance roles of these 3 constituents are responsible for our healthy body. The importance of hygiene and cleanliness in our life is not left to any one. Because a healthy body always reach to their AIM.

The Importance of Healthy Life

Human Life has its unique place in nature. The uniqueness of his routine is also written in "Shastras". The Charak Samhitha describes the 3 requirements of human (human life): -
  1. Pranaikshana
  2. Dhanaikshana
  3. Parlaukaikshana
The Pranaikshana has the greater place than the other two. The Reason of its greatness is " If the human looses his soul (live) than nothing is worth full for him, and also without his soul or PRAAN he is unable to collect the materials like DHAN for his normal life". But if a person is always ill than he is unable to live happy. AYURVEDA is the that life - Science , where the description of illness & healthy life were given. The varnan (description) of healthy life is given by Charak Samhitha - "joy in life is called for healthy but in other side the sadness is called for illness".
