Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: Wisdom Library: Āyurveda and botanyVarapota (वरपो�) is a Sanskrit word referring to a kind of antelope. The meat of this animal is part of the ṃs (‘group of flesh�), which is used throughout Ayurvedic literature. The animal Varapota is part of the sub-group named Jāṅgalamṛga, refering to “animals living in forests�. It was classified by Caraka in his Carakasaṃhitā sūtrasthāna (chapter 27), a classical Ayurvedic work. Caraka defined such groups (vargas) based on the dietic properties of the substance.

Āyurveda (आयुर्वेद, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of Āyurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.
