Ayurveda (science of life)

ղ峾 (व्याया�) refers to “physical exercise�. The term is used throughout Ayurvedic literature such as the śܳٲ-ṃh and the 䲹첹-ṃh.

ղ峾 (व्याया�) refers to “gymnastics� or “exertion�, which is mentioned in verse 3.19, 4.18 and 15.24 of the ṣṭṅgṛdⲹṃh (Sūtrasthāna) by 岵ṭa.—Accordingly, “[...] Having removed the surplus phlegm by pungent emetics and sternutatories etc., by light and rough food, (and) by gymnastics [viz., ], massage, and treading [...]�.

Note (verse 3.19): ղ峾 (“gymnastics�) (~rtsol-ba 2.10, 12, 13) has been omitted, unless bcag is a short form of rtsol-bcag (which corresponds to in 14.7); then 岵ٲ (“treading�) would be absent.

Note (verse 15.24): The equivalent Բ (“exertion�), the phrase zas rgod, is rather obscure and its translation by “move hither and thither in (seeking) food� only tentative. The ordinary meaning of rgod-pa is (“wild�); in Suvarṇaprabhāsasūtra p. 170.30 it corresponds to Sanskrit lola (“unsteady�). There is just an off chance that zas rgod is corrupt for rgod zas, in which case rgod alone would have to be equated to and zas interpreted as the object of za-ba.
