INTRODUCTION Learning is considered to be the holiest of divine things in the world because the continuous process of acquiring knowledge with unwavering devotion and untiring efforts is absolutely necessary for the growth and development of the human culture. Ayurveda Samhitas are like the treasures of knowledge where the unlimited knowledge is told Acharya have used the specific methodologies while composing the Shastra in the form of sutras to put knowledge in a concise and precise manner. Every science needs a time oriented study techniques. Ayurveda too needs to be evaluated as per the time. As a result of periodical evaluation, different types of literatures have been produced like Tantra, Samhita, Tika, Samgraha, Grantha etc. But all these varieties were derived from a common methodology i.e., which enabled scholars of respective times to interpret the original texts into application. Though all Samhitakaras gave importance to, still in the long run on the path of education and research in the Ayurveda science, application and utility of remain most ignored. It is necessary to put forth the utility of in conceptualization of fundamental principles. is a useful tool for understanding of Classics and with the proper knowledge of classics one can apply it clinically. To explain this, the Chatushka (quadrate of suggestion) of Charaka Samhita is selected here to comprehend it in a much better way in the light of. Meaning of the word tantrayukti: If we search the classical dictionaries, no lexicon and Samskrita Shabdakosha (dictionary) puts the entry of the word prominently. The word being a Samasika Shabda (compound word) is composed of two words viz. Tantra and Yukti. Tantra means aggregation of concepts (Bahadoor R.R., 2002) and Yukti means methods of application of aggregated concepts in a scientific treatise (Lele W. K., 1981). Yukti is that intellectual exercise which conjoins, edits, aggregates, relates, coordinates scattered concepts / components of an event / science with each other, properly, with reference to context, for direct effect, by eliminating the blemishes like impropriety and contradiction (Williams M. M., 2002). Chatushka: In Charaka Samhita Sutrasthana the Chatushka (quadrate of suggestion/indication) starts with Khuddakachatushpada with the (indication) of Shodashakalabheshaja (sixteen fold of medicine) (Vaidya Yadavaji Trikamji Acharya, 2011). Here, in brief is mentioned the basics of therapeutics. In the next chapter Mahachatushpada the application of previous mentioned knowledge is narrated (Vaidya Yadavaji Trikamji Acharya, 2011). Here, Maha word suggests the higher application of intelligence. But before that, the disease has to be examined prognostically. Hence Maha Chatushpada (big four limbs) indicates the application of Chatushpada. Now, when the whole Chatushpada is ready to act, then again one has to decide, what can be the treatment modality or what does the Atura (patient) needs, with what kind of disease is he suffering from and accordingly the treatment (Acharya Y.T., 2011). Thus, the Viprakristanidana (long term etiological factor) for maintaining the health and diagnosing and treating the Atura are mentioned in the form of Astatrika (triads of eight things) in the 3 rd chapter Trisraishaniya (Acharya Y. T., 2011). The 4 th chapter is in the form of symposium where in the Kalaa (merits) and Akalaa (demerits) of the Sannikrista Nidana (short term etiological factor) like Tridosha are discussed (Meera bhojani, 2003). Hence, chatushka gives a general protocol for diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic approach which is shown here in the table no 1. INTERPRETATION OF NIRDESHA CHATUSHKA THROUGH TANTRAYUKTI- The scope of a particular literature can be decided by the subject matter narrated within. How this matter does nourish the rest of the

literature and the whole science can be designated as its scope. Scope is the limit line where it can reach up to. The main objective of Chatushka is to discuss the benefits for Swastha (healthy volunteer) and Atura (patient) and thus there is need for understanding the Chatushka with the help of. Acharya Charaka mentioned that throws light on the meaning of the scientific subjects. As the sun causes the blossom of a bed of lotuses or as a lamp illuminates a house in the same way serves for Tantra. (Acharya Y. T., 2011). So here the article presents some glimpses of the illustrations of in Chatushka which is shown in Table no.2. Sr. No. Table no 1: A general protocol for diagnostic, Prognostic and therapeutic approach (Y. T. Acharya, 2011)- Diagnostic, Prognostic and therapeutic approach Chapter of Chatushka 1 Hospital management, institutionalized care Khuddakacatushpada (physician, nursing staff, patient and medicine) 2 Prognostically classified disease Mahachatushpada (application of Chatushpada) 3 Viprakrista Nidana Trisraishaniya (Astatrika ) 4 Sannikrsta Nidana Vatakalakaliya (Tridosha) Table No.2: Shows the illustrations of in the Khuddakachatushpada and Mahachatushpada Adhyaya of Charaka Samhita Sutrasthana Sr. No. 1.

Charaka Sutrasthana 9/ 10-12 (emphasizing the importance of physician among the four limbs of treatment) Padartha Vyakhyana Yoga Padartha - The meaning told in a Sutra or a Pada (group of words) is called as Padartha. The definition of Arogya (health) and Vikara (diseases) is the illustration of Padartha. It says that Prakriti means Samya (homeostasis) and Vikara means Vaisamya (imbalance). Again in Cha.Su.9/5 Chikitsa (therapeutics) is explained as Pravritti (efforts) of Chatuspada (all the four limbs i.e. physician, medicament, attendant and patient) Vyakhyana : Detailed exposition / explanation are called as Vyakhyana.

Charaka Sutrasthana 9/13 example of clod of earth, the wheel, the thread etc. are used to establish the importance of physician and make it understandable for intelligent and unintelligent scholars alike Vyakhyana : According to Vyakhyana Pranabhisara Vaidya (savior of life) is one, who is well versed with the theoretical as well as practical aspects of the Shastra. Vikalpa Vikalpa is declaration of alternative option. In Charaka Sutrasthana 9/22 after mentioning the requisite 6

Charaka Sutrasthana10/3 (four limbs of treatment and its sixteen qualities) Anagataveksha na Prayojana Atitavekshana Nirnaya Atitavekshana qualities of Vaidya, it is told that the presence of even one of them is enough to justify the use of word Vaidya. Atitavekshana Mentioning a thing which has to be described in future is Anagatavekshana. 1) Here it is mentioned, Shastramjyotih Prakashartham (knowledge of medical literature is likednd light for illumination) in Siddhisthana again it is described as the one who is having the knowledge of this literature is variely the knower of its implications. (Ch.Si. 12/52). 2) Darshnam buddhiratmanah (knowledge of medical literature illuminate one s own mental faculty for the purose of seeing the things) - in Siddhisthana it is described as with this one will develop the power of dicrimination (Ch.Si. 12/52). The one having both the qualities i.e. knowledge of science and excellency of mental faculty will not commit mistake in treatment (Charaka Sutrasthana9/24). Such physician will develop proficiency in diagnosis and treatment and will never fail in it (Ch.Si. 12/52) Prayojana : Prayojana is one for which things are told. Charaka Sutrasthana 9/25 is the Prayojana for which the physician should strive. Aitavekshana : Attitavekshana means a statement made in reference to the past. The importance of Vaidya mentioned by the four Gunas has already been mentioned in this Chapter of Sutrasthana. Nirnaya - The conclusive statement about a discussed fact is Nirnaya. After explaining, the Shodashakalabheshajya, it is finally concluded that chikitsa Chatushpada are instrumental in maintaining the

Atitavekshana - The Sodashakalabheshajya comprising Chikitsa Chatushpada has been described in Charaka Sutrasthana9. Purvapaksha - Denying or refuting a sentence is called Poorvapaksha. Here the scholar named Maitreya raised his query about the two different scenarios, where in even with the availability of the Chikitsa Chatushpada, we cannot assure whether the patient will be treated successfully or not and elsewhere even the absence or availability of one of these Chikitsa Chatushpada leads to the successful treatment of a patient. Nidarshana : The answer to the query is mentioned here with example as person who has fallen into a pitfall can easily get out of it with a helping hand but he will strive hard if he tries to get out of it by himself. Uddhara - Uddhara is clarification of some fact by providing some illustration. This explains understanding the satisfactory answer to a question raised by Maitreya. Ekanta : It is a definite meaning without any exception likewise; the Shlokas explains a definite mode of treatment for krisha patients and Sthula patients as Apyayana and Apatarpana respectively. Nirnaya : Through this we understand as here it is concluded that the Sadhyasadhyata of a Vyadhi is very much essential before starting the treatment of the disease. : is index of a book. In Charaka Sutrasthana10/9 Maharshi Charaka has enunciated the Sadhyasadhyata of the disease as Sukhasadhya, Kricchsadhya, Yapya and Asadhya.

Niyoga : Niyoga is the positive (statement) instruction which has to be followed essentially. The commencement of Shastra is included in Niyoga. It is a compulsory dictate that the Vaidya should initially carry out all the examinations before the commencement of a treatment modality. Uhya : The thing or meaning which is not told directly but left off to be understood on the basis of logic is Uhya.

Yoga : Through Yoga we can Sambhava understand this quotation properly i.e. the word Akupita Agni for Subhakarma and Kupita Agni for Ashubha Karma. Sambhava : Sambhava means coordination or justification or supposition of probabilities. This is explained through the present quotation. Charaka Sutrasthana Charka Samhita Sutrasthana, Ch.Si. Charaka Samhita Siddhisthana DISCUSSION The throws light on the meaning of the scientific subjects. The one, whose intellect is steeped in one science and also in these, comprehends another science also (Acharya Y.T., 2011). A medical practitioner studying other sciences but not studying these, can t understand the meanings of the scientific topics, as an unlucky person does not attain wealth even in great efforts (Acharya Y.T., 2011). An idiotic medical practitioner, foolishly assimilating this science ruins himself, as a fool handling a weapon unskilfully injures himself (by virtue of ignorance) (Acharya Y.T., 2011).
