ABSTRACT

Lifestyle-related disorders have become a growing concern for the present generation, leading to increased interest in achieving a healthy and balanced life. Modern biomedical science highlights the significant role of genetic factors in determining an individual's physical traits, mental attributes, and susceptibility to diseases. Although every individual differs in structure, appearance, and behavior, certain hereditary characteristics are transmitted from parents to their offspring. In contemporary science, this process is explained through the concept of genetics. Interestingly, Ayurvedic classical texts described similar concepts through the principles of Beeja, Beejabhaga, and Beejabhagavayava. Ayurveda places significant emphasis on understanding hereditary factors involved in fetal development. References related to hereditary principles are scattered throughout the Ayurvedic Samhitas, particularly in Sharira Sthana, often presented in an implicit manner. Ayurvedic science not only discusses the structural, functional, and pathological aspects related to heredity but also emphasizes preventive approaches to minimize the occurrence of genetic disorders. With the rising prevalence of hereditary diseases in modern times, the Ayurvedic concepts of Beeja, Beejabhaga, and Beejabhagavayava gain greater relevance in understanding genetic predisposition and disorders.
