Language: EnglishPages: 230Preface:This book entitled "Basic Principles of Kriya - Sharira" is specially written for Ayurvedic graduate (BAMS) students keeping in view the CCIM syllabus. The brief sketch on different subject matter of Ayurvedic Physiology has been enumerated in this treatise in a scholar friendly manner. There are many books in the field of Kriya - Sharira available in Hindi version. It is perhaps the first English version on Ayurvedic Physiology. Moreover due to science based students taking admission in different Ayurvedic colleges in the country, it creates difficult for them to understand the subject matter easily.Apart from prescribed topics approved by CCIM, some other aspects of Ayurvedic Physiology viz. the applied physiology of different Doshas for the production of diseases of varying nature and also some general therapeutic measures has been visualized in this book. This book is also designated to be useful for Ayurvedic Post - graduate students and aspirants for getting P.G. in different reputed institutions in the country.I hope that this book will be very popular amongst the students and teachers to fulfil their aspirations. Finally, I humbly welcome the suggestions, improvements and critical remarks from any part so that it can carry them in future revision.Dr. Srikant Kumar PandaAuthorABOUT THE AUTHORDr. Srikant Kumar Panda was born on 6th April 1970 in Kamakshya Nagar Sub-division of Dhenkanal District in Orissa.
