Abstract

The concept of homeostasis, the ability of the body to stay the same despite changes that occur both inside and outside, is used in contemporary biomedical research. In the ancient Indian medical system, Ayurveda, the concept of homeostasis becomes more comprehensive as metabolic, psychological, spiritual and physiological elements are included. According to Ayurveda norm, a person is healthy, when the Doshas, Dhatus, Malas and Agni are in a balanced state. This balance is critical to maintaining overall health (homeostasis). All type of disagreement is a medical emergency. Ayurveda, the ancient medical system, contains a wealth of insights into life, through its description of the qualities and actions that promote health, pleasure, and longevity. Living a long and healthy life depends on maintaining a steady state of the body, also known as homeostasis.
