In Hinduism
Ayurveda (science of life)
: Research Gate: On Fish in Manasollasa (c. 1131 AD)痴腻帽肠墨 (啶掂ぞ啶炧啶氞) refers to a type of fish identified with Silonia childreni Sykes., as mentioned in the 12th-century M膩nasoll膩sa or Abhila峁t膩rthachint膩ma峁噄, an ancient Sanskrit text describing thirty-five kinds of marine and fresh water fishes.鈥擵anchi has been described as a scaly, medium-sized fish, which probably inhabits rivers. In Sanskrit, vaanchhi means desired, vacha is a fish name, and vanch means to deceive. For some reason Hora (1951) suggested that vanchi could be Silonopangasius taakri Sykes, which is a medium-sized fish but is without scales. He ruled out Silonia silondia Sykes as vanchi, even though its name in Telugu is wanjou, because it is large and usually found in northern India. Another species, however, Silonia childreni Sykes is found in Godavari and Krishna rivers and is also called wanjou in Telugu. We believe vanchi should be S. childreni. This species belongs to family Schilbeidae.
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.
