Abstract
Sage Shaunaka is considered as one of the noble and gentle rishis. For his noble and gentleness, he is also called as
‘Bhadra Shaunaka’. He is mentioned in the Indian vedic and pauranic literature and in both great Indian epics
Ramayana and Mahabharata. He is said to be the strict follower of rules and regulations of the Vratas (rituals). He was
the grandson of famous rishi Gritsamada. His decedents are found in all four classes of Indian class system
(Chaturvarna Vywastha). The 1
st
part (Pratham Skandha) of Shreemad Bhagwat Purana represents the dialogue
between sage Shaunaka and Sutaji. Rishi Shaunaka divided his text (Atharva Samhita) into two parts. He learnt
Bramhavidya from the Angirasa.Rishi Shaunaka was present in the conclave of rishis conducted beneath the
mountains of Himalayas held some 5000 years ago to discuss the impact of diseases on human health. Like other
rishis, he also wrote his book called ‘Shaunaka Tantra’ as mentioned by Atreya Punarwasu. We find the reference of
medicinal preparations made by sage Shaunaka in various Ayurvedic commentaries on books like Chakradutta, Vrinda
Madhava and Todarmala’s Ayurved Saukhyam. Even the ancient acharyas like Sushruta, Agnivesha and Bhela have
quoted the views of acharya Shaunaka in their books (Samhitas). Hence, it is necessary to explore the life of rishi
Shaunaka and his contribution to Ayurveda. Exploration to sage Shaunaka in Indological literature reveals that rishi
Shaunaka was very gentle and expert in Indian knowledge system. He was the head of the Naimisharanya Gurukula.
He had also contributed richly in the Ayurvedic literature by giving the detail account of measurements of many
medicinal preparations as mentioned in various books and also by keeping his views on many important topics.

Introduction :
Sage ‘Shaunaka’ was an illustrious ancient Indian
rishi who is largely known for his gentleman Ness
in the Indian Puaranic literature. He was the head of
the Naimisharanya School. He uses to observe
very strict austerity/penance. He performed Tapa
by ‘Vaikhanas’ method i.e. in the forest and living
on the forest food. His decedents are found in all
four classes of Indian class system (Chaturvarna
Vywastha). He was instrumental in shaping the
Shreemad Bhagwat Purana and the Mahabharata.
He wrote the medical book called ‘Shaunaka
Samhita’. Even the ancient acharyas like Sushruta,
Agnivesha and Bhela have quoted the views of
acharya Shaunaka in their books (Samhitas).
Maharishi Shaunaka was present in the conclave of
rishis conducted beneath the mountains of
Himalayas, some 5000 years ago.
[1]
Material And Method :
Literary method of research is followed in this
article. All the available Ayurvedic and Indological
literature is explored to find the maximum
information about the sage Shaunaka.
Review Of Literature :
Birth and Lineage of Rishi Shaunaka :
We find three different versions about birth and
lineage of sage Shaunaka in the puranas,
Mahabharata and Ramayana.
As per Vishnu Purana, the eldest son of
king Pururava was ‘Ayu’ who married to the
daughter of Rahu. She gave birth to five sons, viz.
1. Nahush, 2. Kshatravruddha, 3. Rambha, 4. Raji
and 5. Anena. Kshatravruddha’s son was Suhotra
and Suhotra had 3 sons; Viz. 1. Kashya 2. Kash, 3.
Gritsamada. The sage Gritsamada had son called
‘Shaunaka’ who had progeny in all four classes of
fourfold class system (Chaturvarnya Vyawastha).
[2]
As per Ramayana, sage Chyawana had
Grandson named Kamatha from the son Harita.
His grandson Ruru was from the son
Sumati/Pramati. Ruru’s son was Shunak and his
son was rishi Shaunaka.
[3]
As per Mahabharata, Haihay king
Veetahavya turned as brahmin on the advice of
sage Bhrigu to avoid the fury of Kashi king
Pratardana. His son ‘Gritsamada’ was an illustrious
and brilliant sage. His son was ‘Sucheta’. Sucheta’s
son was ‘Varcha’. The son of Varcha was
‘Vihavya’. The son of Vihavya was ‘Viatatya’. The
son of Vitatya was ‘Satya. The son of Satya was
‘Santa’. The son of Santa was Maharshi ‘Shrava’.
The son of Shrava was ‘Tama’. The son of Tama
was ‘Prakash’ and the son of Prakash was
‘Vagindra’. The son of Vagindra was ‘Pramiti’ who
was well versed in Veda and Vedangas. Pramiti’s
son from nymph Ghritachi was ‘Ruru. The son of
Ruru from wife Pramadadara was Bramharshi
‘Shunaka’ and the Shunka’s son was ‘Shaunaka’
muni.
[4]
Shaunaka As Bhadra Shaunaka:
When Rishi Shaunaka approached the Angirasa to
learn the ‘Bramhavidya’, he is been referred as
Bhadra/Mahashalo (gentleman) in the Munduko
Upanishada. As he was always truthful having great
control over sensory organs and mind and uses to
strictly follow the rules and regulations of the codes
of conduct, he is referred as the Bhadra Purusha
(gentleman).
[5]
Shaunaka As Chancellor of Gurukula:
Shaunaka was the Chancellor (Kulapati) of the
school (Gurukula) located in the forest called

‘Naimishyaranya’. Shaunaka was the teacher of
subjects like Shastras (Shruti, Smruti, Itihas,
Puranas) and Aranyakas (Brihadaranyaka etc). He
was always truthful having great control over
sensory organs and mind. He uses to strictly follow
the rules and regulations of the Vrata. That time a
twelve yearlong one ritual was ongoing there.
Maharshi Shaunaka had also participated in it along
with many other rishis.
[6]
Dialogue Between Rishi Angiras And Shaunaka
Regarding Bramhavidya:
Lord Bramha first evolved in the universe. He
taught the ‘Bramhavidya’ to his eldest son
‘Atharva’. This ‘Bramhavidya’ is the basis of all
the Vidyas (courses). Atharva taught this Vidya to
the rishi Angira who in turn taught it to sage
Bhardwaja’s son called Satyawaha. And Satyawaha
gave it to the Angirasa (Brihaspati). Rishi Shaunaka
approached the Angirasa to learn the
‘Bramhavidya’. He asked Angirasa, as to what is
that on knowing which everything is learnt. Sage
Angirasa replied that there are two main Vidyas
under Bramhavidya which one should know. One is
Para Vidya and other is Apara Vidya. The Para
Vidya gives knowledge about the Akshar Bramha
(Alphabets) and the Apara Vidya gives knowledge
about Vedas, Shiksha (Phonetics), Kalpa (Ritual
canon), Vyakarana (Grammer), Nirukta
(Etymology), Chhandas (meter), Jyotisha
(Astrology). Sage Angirasa further replied that it is
the Para Bramha (Almighty) which is responsible
for everything in the universe. Penance in forest
and faithful contended life takes the individual
towards Para Bramha. The materialistic desires
and its consequences prevent individual’s journey
towards Para Bramha (Almighty).
[7]
Shaunaka And Bhagwat Purana:
The 1
st
Skandha (part) of Shreemad Bhagwat
Purana represents the dialogue between sage
Shaunaka and Sutaji. In this part sage Shaunaka
asked Sutaji about the various incarnations of lord
Vishnu, the biography of Brahma rishi Narada,
deeds of Ashwatthama, death of Bhishma,
Shrikrisna’s entry in Dwarika, birth of king
Parikshita, Pandava’s swargarohana (travel to
heaven) and curse of rishi shrungi to king
Parikshita.
[8]
Conduction of Ashwamedh Yagya:
King Parikshit’s son Janamejaya had committed the
sin of Bramha-hatya (murder of Brahmin) by
killing the sage Garga’s son named Akrura. Hence,
king Janmejaya remained restless for long time.
Later he approached the sage Shaunaka for peace.
Rishi Shaunaka organized the ‘Ashwamedh Yagya’
for the king to get rid of this sin. After performing
this Yagya successfully, king Janmejaya not only
relieved of his sin of murder of Brahmin but also
got rid of bad body smell.
[9]
Contribution of Shaunaka In Atharva-Veda:
Atharvaveda was first propagated by the sage
Sumantu. He taught it to his disciple called
Kabandha muni who in turn taught it to hos two
disciples namely Pathya and Devadarsha. Rishi
Shaunaka was the disciple of sage Pathya. Rishi
Shaunaka divided his text (Samhita) into two parts
and gave it to his disciples namely Vabhru and
Saindhava. This Saindhava’s student Munjikesha
divided his text into five parts namely 1. Nakshatra
Kalpa, 2. Veda Kalpa, 3. Samhita Kalpa, 4. Angiras
Kalpa and 5. Shanti Kalpa.

In ancient Indian knowledge system, the 6
Vedangas, 4 Vedas, Mimansa Shastra, Nyaya
Shastra, Puran Shastra and Dharma Shastra
constitute 14 Vidyas. The addition of Ayurveda,
Dhanurveda, Gandharvaveda and Artha Sahstra
make it 18 vidyas (knowledge systems).

[11]
Contribution To Ayurveda:
Acharya Shrikantha Datta in his
commentary Vyakhyakusumavali on Vrinda
Madhava, in Mishrakadhikar chapter, quoted the
views of acharya Shaunaka regarding the
usefulness of old ghee. Acharya Shaunaka is of the
view that one year old ghee sweet and acts as tonic.
Ten years old ghee is little pungent. The hundred
years old ghee is best and acts as medicine.
[12]
Acharya Shrikantha Datta in his
commentary Vyakhyakusumavali on Vrinda
Madhava, in Mishrakadhikar chapter, quoted the
views of acharya Shaunaka regarding
administration of Anuvasan Basti (oily enema)
after the Virechana (purgation). Acharya Shaunaka
is of the view that at the interval of 15 days
Vamana (emesis) and Virechana should be carried
out and after one month of these procedures i.e.
after 15 days of Virechana, individual should be
administered the Anuvasan Basti.
[13]
Shrikantha Datta in his commentary
Vyakhyakusumavali on Vrinda Madhava, in
Mishrakadhikar chapter, quoted the views of
acharya Shaunaka regarding measurement of
substances for preparing the decoction.
[14]
Acharya Nischalkara in his commentary
Ratnaprabha on Chakradutta, mentioned the
medicinal formulation called ‘Panchanimba
Churna’ given by acharya Bhadra Shaunaka for
the treatment of Kushtha (skin diseases).
[15]
Commentator Nischalkara in his
commentary Ratnaprabha on Chakradutta,
measurement of substances and liquids in the
preparation of decoction, had mentioned that
acharya Vagbhata is the follower of acharya
Shaunaka. Whatever that is mentioned with regard
to preparation of various decoctions in the
treatment of fever, is accepted by acharya
Vagbhata.
[16]
Todarananda had quoted the views of acharya
Shaunaka on Koshtha in his book Ayurved
Saukhyam. As per Shaunaka, Nabhi (umbilicus),
Vrikkas (Kidneys), Yakrita (Liver), Kloma
(Pancreas), Pleeha (Spleen), Antra (Intestine),
Ashayas (Viscera) are taken together as Koshtha.
[17]
Acharya Charaka had mentioned the
views of acharya Shaunaka in eleventh chapter of
Siddhisthana on Falabasti. As per acharya
Shaunaka, the drug Jimutaka (Luffa echinata) is
best for Vamana as it removes the Kapha and Pitta.
He further opined that the drug Kritavedhana
(Luffa actuangula) is not good for the process of
emesis.

Acharya Bhela had quoted the views of
acharya Shaunak regarding the merits of Chikitsa
Chatushpada i.e. doctor, nurse, medicine and
patient. Acharya Shaunaka here contradicted the
views of acharya Atreya Punarvasu saying that
mere absence or presence of some of the qualities
of these four does not affect the outcome of the
treatment. The credit may not be given to the single
person or substance.
[19]
Acharya Bhela had quoted the views of
acharya Shaunak regarding the colour of the foetus.
Acharya Shaunaka is of the view that if the
pregnant lady is given the yava mantha cooked in
the cow milk in the 7
th
month of pregnancy and if
the lady is kept in the home pained with white
colour and lady is also asked to wear the white
clothes, then she delivers the child with red colour
(pingala).
[20]
Acharya Charaka while enumerating the list of
textbook writers in Sharir Sthana, had mentioned
about the book ‘Bhadra Shaunaka Tantra’ written
by acharya Shaunaka indicated by the word
Sutrakarta rishi.
[21]
Acharya Charaka and Sushruta while
mentioning the views of different acharyas on the
organogenesis during embryogenesis, quoted the
views of acharya Shaunaka. As per acharya
Shaunaka stated that in the process of
organogenesis during embryogenesis, first of all
head is evolved.

Discussion :
Although there are different views regarding the
birth of rishi Shaunaka, one thing is common that
he was born in Bhrigu vansha (lineage). He was the
son of rishi ‘Shunak’ in the lineage of rishi
Gritsamada. His great grandfather was ‘Pramiti’
and grandfather was ‘Ruru’. Sage Shaunaka was
known for his noble and gentleness. Hence, he was
also called as ‘Bhadra Shaunaka’. In Ayurveda, at
many places he is referred as ‘Bhadra Shaunaka’.
He was the head of the school in Naimishyaranya.
He himself was well versed in Vedas and other
Vaidik branches. This gives an idea about his
authority not only being scholar in Vedic studies
but the great teacher who headed the institution. He
divided the Atharvaveda into many branches. His
interest in knowing the Bramhavidya put him as the

curious learner. He learnt Bramhavidya from
Angiras rishi. All Bhrigu vanshis were great
Tapasvis. Rishi Shaunaka was also strict follower
of austerity and penance. He was present in the
assembly of rishis to discuss the impact of diseases
on human lives and its solution. Sage Bhargava
gave him the knowledge of Ayurveda. Maharshi
Shaunaka created his own treatise called ‘Shaunaka
Tantra’. This was followed by acharya Vagbhata.
Nischalkara the commentator of Chakradutta,
called Vagbhata as Shaunak Matanuyayi i.e.
follower of the vies of Shaunaka at many places in
his commentary ‘Ratnaprabha’ and showed the
similarity of their opinion on many medicinal
preparations. Not only the commentators like
Shrikanthadatta or Nischalkara or Hemadri but
ancient great scholars like Agnivesha, Sushruta,
Bhela and Vagbhata have also quoted the views of
acharya Shaunaka in their respective treatise. This
shows the high regard acharya Shaunaka held in the
ancient Indian medical science sphere of that time.
Unfortunately, his scholarly work is not available
today but since the many commentators have
quoted the references from ancient Shaunaka
Tantra, there is a reason to believe that it might
exist in some or another place. It is the duty of
modern-day researchers to find it. The present
article may prove to be of help in this direction.
Conclusion:
Acharya Shaunaka was the gentle sage of ancient
time who was proficient in vedic sciences. He was
the head of the ancient school of great learners
which he found at Naimisharanya. As the work of
acharya Shaunaka is quoted not only by the
commentators but by the ancient great scholars like
Agnivesha, Sushruta and Bhela and Vagbhata, it
can safely be concluded that medical treatise
composed by acharya Shaunaka called ‘Shaunaka
Tantra’ was existent and followed by many till
medieval time.
