简要总结
INTRODUCTION
“Bala” refers to an individual’s physical and mental resilience, which can be evaluated in both healthy and unhealthy individuals. “Sharira Bala” meaning strength, which underlies related ideas like Ojas, Vyadhi Kshamatva, and more. Contemporary sciences measure physical strength using tools like, Modified Harvard Step Test and parameters such as Physical Fitness Index and Maximal Oxygen Consumption. It serves as a vital energy source, essential for the body’s nourishment, growth and defence mechanisms, ultimately supporting the sustenance of life. In essence, "Bala" is the fundamental force that fuels the body’s overall functioning and well-being.
RATIONALITY OF THE TOPIC
The concept of Bala, which measures an individual’s strength and endurance, has received limited attention in research, with different studies reporting it in different ways. In ayurveda some tools are available which consider only single parameter such as Ojas or Vyadhikshamatva etc as assessment factor, but no tool has been developed for comprehensive Bala assessment according to Ayurveda and contemporary point of view. Different researchers tend to report Bala in different ways such as Dhatusarata, Prakriti, Ojas, Vyadhikshamatva etc*.*Currently, there isn’t a standardized tool to assess overall Bala. To address this gap, this research is designed.
