A CRITICAL ANALYSIS ON AGNI AND ITS APPLIED SIGNIFICANCE AN AYURVEDIC REVIEW

Abstract

Agni, according to Ayurveda, is essential to our overall wellness. The mental force known as Agni is present in every organ system, every cell, and every tissue in the body. Which chemicals enter our cells and tissues and which ones should be expelled as waste are eventually decided by Agni's judgment. In this regard, Agni is the protector of life. According to Ayurveda, when the Agni is extinguished, death follows shortly. While Agni is directly in charge of many different things, Agni is also, in Ayurveda's view, the root cause of all imbalances and ailments. The body possesses 13 different subtypes of Agni, each of which may be recognized by a distinct physiological function, according to Ayurveda. The mother of all of them is Jatharagni, the main digestive fire that regulates food absorption and digestion. However, there are several other fire-related components in the body's cells, tissues, and organs that regulate operations including sensory perception and the uptake of certain nutrients by specific tissues. By suppressing any of these qualities throughout the body, poor diet, an unproductive lifestyle, and unresolved emotions may all make Agni more challenging. Similar to this, increasing Agni's impact across the body may be accomplished by nurturing his qualities extensively. Therefore, understanding Agni is essential to understanding the nature of illness and developing therapeutic approaches.
