A REVIEW ON PATHOGENESIS OF DISEASE WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO
ANUBANDHA AND ANANUBANDHA VAADA
Introduction: In Ayurveda a detailed explanation of causative factors, pathogenesis, signs and symptoms and prognosis of different Nija Rogas are available. Even then the subjectivity of a disease in its origin, clinical presentation and curative facets with respect to individuals are found to be different. This can be cleared by the knowledge of Anubandha – Anubandha Vaada. Materials and Methods: The present work is a literature review on the theory of Anubandha -Ananubandha and its importance in Nija Roga manifes-tation. Results and Discussion: The strength of disease may be assessed through the Anubandha and Ananubandha of Nidana, Dosha and Dooshya. A well treatment plan with either Brimhana or Langhana should be assigned through this principle. Similarly, an appropriate lifestyle can be followed which may essentially help to cure a disease or prevent a disease. Conclusion: By proper knowledge Nidana Panchaka and Shat-Kriyakala, a Vaidhya is able to break the factor sequence in a disease development. Understand-ing in depth the different facets of Anubandha - Ananubandha Vaada helps in preventing, recognizing and curing disease.
