Ayurveda (science of life)
Rasashastra (Alchemy and Herbo-Mineral preparations)
Source: Wisdom Library: Rasa-艣膩stra痴补丑苍颈箩惫腻濒腻 (啶掂す啷嵿え啶苦啷嵿さ啶距げ啶�) is the name of an Ayurvedic recipe defined in the fourth volume of the Rasajalanidhi (chapter 3, 驳谤补丑补峁嚹�: chronic diarrhoea). These remedies are classified as Iatrochemistry and form part of the ancient Indian science known as Rasa艣膩stra (medical alchemy). However, as an ayurveda treatment, it should be taken twith caution and in accordance with rules laid down in the texts.
Accordingly, when using such recipes (e.g., 惫补丑苍颈-箩惫腻濒腻-谤补蝉补): 鈥渢he minerals (uparasa), poisons (惫颈峁), and other drugs (except herbs), referred to as ingredients of medicines, are to be duly purified and incinerated, as the case may be, in accordance with the processes laid out in the texts.鈥� (see introduction to Iatro chemical medicines)
膧yurveda (啶嗋く啷佮ぐ啷嵿さ啷囙う, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of 膧yurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram痴补丑苍颈箩惫腻濒补 (啶掂す啷嵿え啶苦啷嵿さ啶距げ) refers to the 鈥渇lames of fire鈥�, according to the 艢r墨matottara-tantra, an expansion of the Kubjik膩matatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjik膩 cult.鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淭he venerable sacred seat of J膩landhara is in the locus of the cavity (of the mouth). It is adorned with flames of Fire and shines brilliantly [i.e., 惫补丑苍颈箩惫腻濒补-耻辫补艣辞产丑颈迟补] and burns with the Doomsday Fire in the form of a (radiant) spark (of light). The venerable Cakr墨艣an膩tha is the emperor in the middle of the wheel (located here) and is mounted on the power of his knowledge surrounded by many troupes of Yogin墨s and is adorned with sixteen energies. (This is the) second sacred seat should be known by means of (the deity鈥檚) energy (to be) within the locus of the cavity shining (there) surrounded by a tree, creeper, guardian, cremation ground, monastery, gesture and cave鈥�.
Shakta (啶多ぞ啶曕啶�, 艣膩kta) or Shaktism (艣膩ktism) represents a tradition of Hinduism where the Goddess (Devi) is revered and worshipped. Shakta literature includes a range of scriptures, including various Agamas and Tantras, although its roots may be traced back to the Vedas.
