Abstract

Analysis of Hetu (causative factors) is one of the important factors in Roga Pariksha (examination of disease). Panchakarma (5 purification therapies) practices are carried out abundantly by physicians considering its effective results in shorter time duration. Many people also practice these at home without proper consultation from expert physician just by reliying on the information from social media. Administration of purification therapy at inappropriate stage or with faulty manners leads to vitiation of Dosha, which ultimately leads to occurrence of disease. Bruhatrayee (3 main classical texts) of Ayurveda has mentioned Shodhana Mithyayoga (improper administration of purification therapy) as causative factor for various diseases quoted in Nidanasthana and Chikitsasthana. The present article focusses on to study the Shodhana Mithyayogas Vyadhi Hetu (causative factor of disease) mentioned in Nidanasthana and Chikitsasthana of Bruhatrayee of Ayurveda.
