In the formation of a principle, the experimental study plays a pivotal role. After repeated experiments under the same conditions, if one finds the same results, then a principle is formed. Ayurvedic principles which were formulated on the basis of keen observations and through special senses need to be reassessed through contemporary scientific tools. The principles of Ushna (hot) and Sheeta (cold) Gunas (properties) need to be assessed and evaluated through various animal experiments so as to suggest parameters which can be suitable for the evolution of these Gunas. The present study is an attempt to find out the possibility of employing simple experimental parameters to assess these Gunas in selected drug substances and the data generated through this study were analyzed. The obtained results are encouraging to develop the same. All details are presented in this paper.
在原理的形成过程中,实验研究起着关键作用。在相同条件下进行反复实验后,如果发现结果相同,那么就形成了一条原理。基于敏锐观察和特殊感官制定的阿育吠陀原理需要通过当代科学工具进行重新评估。需要通过各种动物实验来评估和评价“热(Ushna)”与“冷(Sheeta)”属性(Gunas)的原理,以便提出适合这些属性演变的参数。本研究旨在尝试找出采用简单实验参数来评估选定药物物质中这些属性的可能性,并对本研究产生的数据进行了分析。所得结果对于进一步开展相关研究很有启发。本文呈现了所有细节。
