ABSTRACT

Water is called “the elixir of life”. This is, indeed, the name which the Indian Nobel Laureate, C.V.Raman, has given it in his renowned essay of the same name. The earth comprises two thirds of water and one third of land. Water is also essential for life. Water is the major constituent of almost all life forms. Most animals and plants contain more than 60% water by volume. Without water life would probably never have developed on our planet. Early civilizations started around the water sources. Water is not only important for drinking but also for transport, trade and agriculture. Water makes up more than two thirds of human body weight, and without water, we would die in a few days. The human brain is made up of 95% water; blood is 82% and lungs 90%. A mere 2% drop in our body's water supply can trigger signs of dehydration, furry short-term memory, trouble with fundamental arithmetic and difficulty focus on smaller issue.[1] The theory of Panchamahabhutas, are basics of our body and nature. Jala mahabhuta (water) is one among them. Jala is the substance with existence and is an essence of elemental source. Water is considered to be „Jeeva‟ (life) in Ayurvedic perception.[2] This article comprises to communicate regarding properties, types, medicinal values and effect of Jala on life in both Ayurveda and modern view.

Keywords: Jala, Panchamahabhutas, Agrya Dravya, water, thirst.
