顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹� (啶︵ぞ啶曕啶粪ぞ啶ぃ啷�).鈥擳he daughter of Dak峁, 顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹�, i.e. future P膩rvat墨, arrives alone to the ceremony where her father is performing a sacrifice for which neither she nor her husband 艢iva are invited. Although his daughter is married to 艢iva, Dak峁 did not have any regard towards his son-in-law for the reason that he is not rich. In spite of the absence of invitation, when she arrives alone to the spot of the sacrificial ceremonies, her father and others insult her. Unable to withstand their insults, she goes near the sacrificial fire altar and jumps in it.
The Purana (啶啶班ぞ啶�, pur膩峁嘺s) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India鈥檚 vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
Shilpashastra (iconography)
: Archaeological Survey of India: 艢aiva monuments at Pa峁弓adakal (艣ilpa)顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹� (啶︵ぞ啶曕啶粪ぞ啶ぃ啷�) is depicted as a sculpture on the tenth pillar of the southern half of the 尘补峁囜笉补辫补 of the temple of Loke艣vara.鈥擳here are three panels on the square portion of the pillar besides one on the medallion. In the uppermost panel there are decorative motifs. The sacrifice by Dak峁 and his daughter 顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹� committing 蝉补迟墨, falling in the fire, is the main theme of the central panel.
The story goes from right to left. 顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹�, on Nandin, the bull, arrives alone at the spot where all the gods are assembled for the sacrifice. The main deities are sitting in the centre while others are standing and one of them (to the right) is in a kind of 惫补箩谤腻峁苍补 with folded hands. At the extreme left of the panel is a lady sitting. From the hairstyle and other attires it looks like 顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹� (P膩rvati) with her yogic power preparing to jump in the fire. Immediately in the next scene we notice a female figure in the midst of flames. That is 顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹� in the fire engulfed by the flames. Another name of 顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹� is Sat墨.
The lowest of all panels has images of dwarfs in dance postures. It seems to be a succession of dance poses continuing from one fa莽ade to the following fa莽ade. On the north and the south fa莽ades are male figures whereas in the east and west are females.
Shilpashastra (啶多た啶侧啶ざ啶距じ啷嵿い啷嵿ぐ, 艣ilpa艣膩stra) represents the ancient Indian science (shastra) of creative arts (shilpa) such as sculpture, iconography and painting. Closely related to Vastushastra (architecture), they often share the same literature.
Ayurveda (science of life)
Rasashastra (Alchemy and Herbo-Mineral preparations)
Source: Wisdom Library: Rasa-艣膩stra顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹� (啶︵ぞ啶曕啶粪ぞ啶ぃ啷�) or 顿腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹玶asa is the name of an Ayurvedic recipe defined in the fourth volume of the Rasajalanidhi (chapter 3, 补迟颈蝉腻谤补: diarrhoea). These remedies are classified as Iatrochemistry and form part of the ancient Indian science known as Rasa艣膩stra (medical alchemy). However, since it is an ayurveda treatment it should be taken with caution and in accordance with rules laid down in the texts.
Accordingly, when using such recipes (e.g., 诲腻办峁Ｄ乱补峁嚹�-谤补蝉补): 鈥渢he minerals (uparasa), poisons (惫颈峁), and other drugs (except herbs), referred to as ingredients of medicines, are to be duly purified and incinerated, as the case may be, in accordance with the processes laid out in the texts.鈥� (see introduction to Iatro chemical medicines)
膧yurveda (啶嗋く啷佮ぐ啷嵿さ啷囙う, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of 膧yurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.
