Life is a continuous process. It has no beginning or end. So, Ayurveda the science which describes about the life and longevity is also considered as eternal. The origin of Universe and all its sciences are credited to Lord Brahma. The knowledge of different fields of life is found in Vedas, which are the ancient literary records of Indian culture. There are four Vedas which are considered as the four mouths of Lord Brahma. They are Rgveda, Sama Veda, Yajur Veda and Atharva Veda. Ayurveda is considered as the Upaveda of Atharva Veda as the maximum information for the promotion of health, prevention and treatment of diseases are described in Atharva Veda. Nowhere in the Vedas the word ‘Ayurveda’ is used, which appears for the first time only in Samhita traditions.
Ayurveda- The knowledge of life – is that which is deal with what is good and what is bad, pleasure and sorrow for life.
