ABSTRACT

It is often said that theories without facts to support them are more useless than facts without theories to correlate them thankfully, in ayurveda we have theories and we have facts and our co-relations are most of the time untenable to the western mechanistic world. Ayurveda has one peculiar feature of diagnostic technique. In this diagnostic technique there are so many special feature like dwivida parisksa, trividha pariksa, shad vidha pariksa, ashta vidha pariksa, and dashavidha pariksa. All these pariksa of ayurvedic practice show good diagnosis and this includes the treatment based on the diagnosis. Main of this nadi pariksa use be more practiced in olden days but now –a-days in ayurveda very rarely this nadi pariksa diagnosis is going on and most of the ayurveda practitioner in olden day used to give treatment based on the doshas only and on nidhana parivarjana chikitsa. The main aim of this article is to highlight the techniques which and all our acharya used to practice since olden days and to remember the all ayurvedic diagnosis techniques in present days.
