Study Overview
Brief Summary
A healthy pulse is regular stable and fluctuating and is felt smoothly moving like an earthworm. It neither fast nor slow; neither too strong nor too feeble and the pace is maintained.
It is not disturbed and is felt about Angustha moola that is base of thumb on wrist which is sama that is flowing at the same place. There are variants in nadi at different times of day along
with variations according to state of health condition and diseased state. There are different Sites of pulse examination like throat, foot, ankle etc. as described in texts.
Nadi Parikshan requires expertise who has long experience and skill of reading the pulses for any disease diagnosis. They were popular diagnostic tools in the past but nowadays not
specifically used, so there is need to re-establish their results so that they can be used in future. Several problems that remain undiagnosed even with the aid of sophisticated diagnostic tests
can be accurately judged by examining the pulse. As there is need to re-establish the usage of this technique in order to get benefitted at the most, there is a need to explore/ investigate the
relation of nadi with various physiological factors.
Both Nadi and Agni are markers of health and continuity of life. As aacharyas have mentioned different lakshan of nadi in different states of agni and digestive process. Hence
there must be some correlation between the status of Nadi gunas with state of individuals agni (Mandaagni & Tikshnagni). Comparison of lakshanas of nadi in Diptaagni individual and
Mandaagni individual i.e., Laghu & Guru; Vegavati & Manda Guna respectively will be done in different Deha Prakriti’s. For this reason, the researcher has selected the topic of study as
“AN OBSERVATIONAL STUDY OF NADI IN DIFFERENT DEHA PRAKRITI INDIVIDUALS WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO DIPTAGNI & MANDAGNI.â€
