Authors: Chambial P And Khandare S*

ABSTRACT
The state where both body and mind are in pain and grief is said to be a state of vyadhi. In Ayurveda, the classification of vyadhi is explained according to various characters, karmaja vyadhi in one of them. From the word karma here, we can take the idea regarding the actionpravritti of vak-vocal, mana-mental, and shareera- physical activities. Karma of past life is also responsible for the causation of some hereditary diseases. Here, Papa- karma, is said to be the main karana of karmaja vyadhi. Karma did in purva janama is called as daiva whereas karma did or doing in ihakruta janama is called as purushartha. As Acharya charaka ,along with other nidana also said papa karma as the nidana of kushta, kilasa(papakriya), udara -roga, agantuja unmada and krimija shiro- roga. We always keep our focus on common aharaja and viharaja nidana during the diagnosis of diseases. The concept of papa karma should also get focussed and highlighted. Keywords: karmaja vyadhi, purva -janama, ihakruta janama
