THE CONCEPT OF MARANA AND JARANA - A REVIEW ARTICLE

Abstract

One of the specialty areas of Ayurveda known as the science of mercury is called Rasashastra. This branch is important for both therapeutic and preventative purposes. It adheres to several tenets and customs, including Sodhana, Marana, and Jarana. In addition to managing mercury as Rasa, hence the name Rasashastra, it also handles other Rasa dravyas, such as metals and minerals. Rasashastra, a branch of Ayurveda, investigates the origin, physical and chemical qualities, variations, therapeutic benefits, and uses of Rasa dravyas. Understanding the background and notion of this branch is also essential; in light of this, the current paper examined a review of the concept of Marana and Jarana in Rasashastra.
