Abstract

Ayurveda is a vast entity with its principles and protocols to understand the body system. Prakruti is one among its dynamic principles. Prakruti is decided at the time of conception according to the predominance of dosha. Prakruti is non changeable, it never changes its characters for the whole life and it determines the physical and mental characteristics of an individual. As per Tridosha, Prakruti is of seven types. Ageing/Jara is a process of decaying and is included under Swabhavika vyadhi. In our body, Pitta or Agni is responsible for the various types of pathological conditions. Although ageing is a natural pathological condition, Pitta plays an important role in its causation like other pathological conditions. Charaka Samhita indicates that persons with Pitta predominance personality tend to suffer early with decaying process and other changes of ageing. Present article will help to understand role of Prakruti in ageing.
