Ayrvedic Herbs, Vegetation collections definition case. Ayrvedic Herbs Properties and Features.

Introduction:-

                Nowadays, Vaidya take medicine from pansari those who do not have knowledge of botany. Yes, keep knowledge of economics. The amount of laziness has increased in our Vaidya brothers. If Vaidya go to the forests and collect Ayurvedic herbs themselves then make their medicine even better. They can also get money by selling the remaining herbs. 

                Nature produces itself Ayurvedic Medicine. They have to be archived. Yes, there is some difficulty that all the herbs is not grow in one place like Odisa forest, there is huge quantity of poison get in Darjeeling forest, Chirayta, Kutki, Peeplamul is found in Nepal forest. There are duties of Vedas that the place where the herbs that is produced in more quantity, collect and use it and remaining herbs sell to the trusted Ayurvedic medicine maker.

Ayurveda Herbs and Vegetation collections 

Herbs Collection Period:- 

It is not certain that which medicine should be taken in which season. It is not possible to have a fixed period of thousands of herbs. Yet a common time has been decided by the Scientist. 

Raj Nighantu writes in the beginning:-

Tuber taken in pre-winter, Tap roots taken in winter, Flower taken in spring and leaf taken in summer is beneficial. In autumn season the Ayurvedic medicine herbs should be taken new, fresh and pure. If the herbs not get new then you have not gone one year bringing them and the natural properties of the medicinal herbs have not be changed, such good herbs should be used for medicine making.

Sharangdhar says:-  

For all the work used only liquid herbs medicine in autumn season but vomiting medicine should be eclipsed at the end of the spring. 

Do not takes Herbs of these places:-

Snake burrow, dirty place, wet place like which place where there is consistent filled water, cemetery (Place where the dead body are burned or to bury), in which place grass is not growing and herbs which is growing in the road etc. not collected. Which herbs partial destroyed by the fire, insects and frost do not even take them because those medicines are not to be of good quality. 

Location Features:-

Herbs emerging on Himalayas are excellent and cold. Herbs produced on Vindhyacal Mountain are also very good but is hot. This is the important principle of scripture. I have such an experience that the herbs which are grown in Assam, Bengal, Odisa etc. is less efficient. The herbs grown in Bihar, Nepal and Vindyachal are middle class efficient. Herbs which are grown in Himachal understand the best aurvedic medicinal properties. The Herbs grown in Punjab and Rajputana is also good quality. Himalayas have great glory. In fact, the vegetation grown in the Himalayas is the best. Brahmi also grown in other place than Himalaya but nothing in the property is in front of it. 

At this time, all the herbs used by the Vaidya which are more often around them. It is natural that the manufacturer and Vaidya used those herbs which is grown nearby just as Bengal medicine manufacturer all medicine make with from there herbs.  

Following medicine are used only fresh.

• VASA
• NEEM
• PATOL
• KETKI
• KHRETI
• PETHA
• SHATAVAR
• PUNRNVA
• BARK OF KUDA
• ASGANDH
• GANDHPRSARNI
• NAAGBALA
• PIYABANSA
• GUGGUL
• ASAFETIDA  
• GINGER    etc.

Keep this medicine to be stored:-

                The same Ayurvedic medicine is came in good, medium and lower class due to place and climate change. Popular Sine tree grown in Bangalore and it is usually sent to whole Europe for medicinal manufacture while there is no middle class Sine in India rather the lower class Sine gets for treatments. Then people complaint that Ayurvedic medicine is not good. When the manufacturer used only lower class herbs then how they medicine produced the good quality? So you collect and store the ayurvedic herbs then use only first class Herbs. 

                 The process of collecting the medicinal herbs in present time is faulty. We see that large stockiest vegetation fill in the sack and drop down any place whereby the vegetation gets erosion soon or it becomes fungal. 

                  The best way to do this work is to that should be seen before placing the vegetation that vegetation is well dried. You should also keep in mind lounging in the warehouse that against from each other things do not put together. Much vegetation stockiest business man put the chili, spice, asafetida etc. sack with vegetation wherein the fundamental properties of vegetation ends. Carefully kept vegetation remains good for a long time. 

Planning of representative things in the absence of actual things

Vegetation collection

                 When making a Ayurvedic medicine if they do not get any substance that is used in it, in its place, other substances with similar properties vegetation are used. Such a statement is described in many texts of Ayurveda and it must be so because because there are so many such things that are not always available everywhere. 

                 The medicines used only one substance then there are no use representative things in it but the medicines in which more than one thing is used, the representative things should be used instead of the main herbs expect in the substance that is not found in the remaining matter. In the preparation of a medicine together with many substances and there is main substance and accessory substance such two departments. 

                  The main substance that will be considered without being able to make the drug used it could not do the exact quality and accessory substance are those in the absence of using representative substance with similar properties that medicament can make a realistic quality.

There is following list of Accessory substance and Representative substance.
