Dear Readers,
Radhekrishna once again,
We mentioned a shloka from the Sushruta Samahita in our previous post relating to the classification of diseases.
Let us know the same in this post.
The seven categories of diseases are as under:
Ø Those caused by pre-conception hereditary factors.
Ø Those caused by post-conception hereditary factors.
Ø Those caused by the vitiation of the humours
Ø Contagious
Ø Seasonal
Ø Those caused by divine forces (of unknown origin) and
Ø Those that are natural to the body
Thus the two shlokas mentioned in the previous post deal with the origin of the diseases.

Section II : Information on Indian herbs
In this post, the herb that we are going to mention is called as Bakain in Hindi, Indian Lilac in English and Melia Azedarach in Latin.
o It’s a tree resembling the neem tree
o It has round fruits growing in clusters
o The leaves of the tree have blood-purifying properties
o It is recommended for curing of scabies, ringworm, leprosy and leukoderma
o It helps to reduce inflammation
o The extract of it’s leaves is useful in dealing with cataract
That concludes our post for the forthnight.
