Review on History of Visha vidhya in Ayurveda toxicology
Toxicology,Ayurveda, Mantra, Visha, History
In India the state Kerala with its geographical peculiarities provided a firm platform for popularising Agada Tantra- the Ayurvedic branch of toxicology. The treatment had two forms one based on Mantra or sacred spells and other based on medical care. Former was termed as Visha vidhya and latter was known as Visha vaidhya. The medicine based treatment is still in practice but former method with mantras or spells are not in practice. The possible rationale behind the action of chanting Mantra or spells in treatment have not been discussed in published papers. Hence this paper is thus an attempt to review the details of Visha vidhya from the available literature and discuss the possible mode of its action so as to make it useful while administering medicines.
