COMPARATIVE AND APPLIED STUDY BETWEEN CLASSICAL PHYSICS TO AYURVEDA W.S.R. TO LAWS OF MOTION IN RELATION WITH GURU, LAGHU, STHIRA, CHALA AND SAMSKARA GUNA

Abstract

Introduction: “VEDA” derived from root ‘Vid’ meaning is ‘to Know’ or ‘Knowledge’. It can be considered as Ultimate science. The literatures derived after Veda are having impact of it. In the similar way the science and its branches are also having the impact of Veda. The ever-dynamic Science is originated from Latin verb ‘Scientia’ meaning is ‘to know’. For further in-depth study the science is subdivided into Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Physics is a branch of Science, it means Nature. In Physics all the concepts are in terms of theories or laws. Mechanic branch of Physics deals with the motion of an object with or without the reference of force, i.e. Newtons laws of motion and the Law of gravitation is concerned with motion(or equilibrium)of particles. These Law can be substantiated with Guna Siddhanta. Among Gunas Sthira(Stable), Chala(Moving), Guru(Heavy), Laghu(Light) and Samskara Gunas(Restoration-qualities) are having the similar properties and functions explained in the Newtons law of Motion. Aims & Objectives : To understand the application of Laws of motion with respect to Gurvadi Guna. Materials & Methods: Literary study has been done by Classical texts of Ayurveda, Tarka Sanghraha, Padartha Vijnana Books and 11^th NCERT text book of Physics. Discussion: The concepts of Sthira, Chala Guna compared with Sthira Dosha Chalana by Vata Dosha(1^st law of motion),Concept of  Anupana(Adjuvant) & Akta Lavana Taila(Salt-mixed-oil) application compared to 2^nd law of motion and Guru-Laghu Guna(Nidana Sevena) respective changes in the body compared with 3^rd law of motion. Results: A brief review of literature was done and found that Newtons Laws of motion is much similar to the Guna Siddhanta. Conclusion : Laws of Motion can be understood through Guna Siddhanta.
