dc.description.abstractThis research is about Chandas in Ayurveda. Chandas refers to one of the six Vedangas or limbs of Vedic studies. The study of Ayurveda as a Upaveda and Chandas as a Vedanga was collateral. The Chandas are developed by the Vedic schools, which were notable for including both linear and non-linear systems. It is the study of poetic metres in Ayurveda. This field of study was centered to the Charaka Samhitha. Charaka Samhitha is one of the main classics in Ayurveda. The commentators of Charaka Samhita have not mentioned the types of Chandas in context. The aim of this study is to identify the Chandas mentioned in Charaka Samhita and its syllable structure. Data which was compiled in this research has been elaborately arranged with the relevant illustration and in logical order.
