Abstract
Rishi Vasishtha is the highly regarded ancient learned scholar not only of Ayurvedic field but of other
Indian sciences such as Indian astrology and ancient Indian architecture. His book ‘Vasishtha Samhita’
is found in all 3 Indological sciences. However, the book on Ayurveda is missing though the quotes
from it are available in various Ayurvedic commentaries. In Puranik history, we find reference to two
Vasishtha rishis. The first Vasishtha was born in Swayambhuv Manvantara. The Vasishtha (I) was the
Manas putra (desired son) of lord Bramha. The second Vasishtha was born in Vaivaswat Manwantara.
This Vasishtha (II) is important from Ayurvedic point of view. He was the son of Mitravaruna and
brother of Agastya rishi. He was the Kulguru of famous Ramayan fame Raghuvansha. His wife was
Arundhati who gave birth to 100 sons. Among them Shakti was the eldest. Sage Vasishtha left the
legacy of Ayurveda in his lineage in the form of his grandson ‘Parashara’ who was the student of Atreya
Punarwasu and wrote famous ‘Parashar Samhita. Rishi Vasishtha was present in the assembly of rishis
held under mountain Himalaya which discussed about the growing diseases in the community and ways
to tackle it. The present study aims to explore the family and work details of sage Vasishtha and his
contribution to Ayurveda. After taking proper knowledge of Ayurveda from the God king Indra, sage
Bhardwaja disseminated this knowledge among many rishis including sage Vasishtha. Acahrya
Vangasena had quoted a medicinal preparation named ‘Vasishtha Haritaki Avaleha’ prepared by sage
Vasishtha in his text Vangasen Samhita (48/191-201) and by Vruddha Vagbhata (A. S. Chi. 5/86-94).
Similarly, acharya Charaka also quoted a medicinal preparation termed as ‘Aamalakya Bramharasaya’
in his text ‘Charak Samhita’ (C.Chi. 1/3/4-5). Todarmala the writer of book ‘Ayurved Saukhyam’ had
given several quotes of sage Vasishtha in his textbook (A.S. chapter 4). This literary retrospective
research study showed that sage Vasishtha contributed richly in the development of Ayurveda.

Introduction:
The sage Vasishtha is a great ancient Indian
Ayurvedic scholar of high repute. He wrote an
Ayurvedic textbook called ‘Vasishtha Samhita’
which is lost in the course of time. However, many
references of it are found in various Ayurvedic
commentaries. Sage Vasishtha left the legacy of
Ayurveda in his lineage in the form of his grandson
‘Parashara’ who was the student of Atreya
Punarwasu and wrote famous ‘Parashar Samhita.
The first Vasishtha was born in Swayambhuv
Manvantara. The Vasishtha (I) was the Manas
putra (desired son) of lord Bramha. The second
Vasishtha was born in Vaivaswat Manwantara. This
Vasishtha (II) is important from Ayurvedic point of
view. He was the son of Mitravaruna and brother of
Agastya rishi. He was the Kulguru of famous
Ramayan fame Raghuvansha. His wife was
Arundhati who gave birth to 100 sons. Among them
Shakti was the eldest. Rishi Vasishtha was present
in the assembly of rishis held under mountain
Himalaya which discussed about the growing
diseases in the community and ways to tackle it.
The present study aims to explore the family and
work details of sage Vasishtha and his contribution
to Ayurveda. After taking proper knowledge of
Ayurveda from the God king Indra, sage Bhardwaja
disseminated this knowledge among many rishis
including sage Vasishtha. Acahrya Vangasena had
quoted a medicinal preparation named ‘Vasishtha
Haritaki Avaleha’ prepared by sage Vasishtha in his
text Vangasen Samhita
[1]
and by Vruddha
Vagbhata
[2]
. Similarly, acharya Charaka also
quoted a medicinal preparation termed as
‘Aamalakya Bramharasaya’ in his text ‘Charak
Samhita’
[3]
. Todarmala the writer of book
‘Ayurved Saukhyam’ had given several quotes of
sage Vasishtha in his textbook
[4]
. Sage Vasishtha is
also credited with books like Vasishtha
Dharmasutra, Yogavasishtha, Agni Purana and
Vishnu Puran.
Material & Method :
Literary method of research was adopted in present
study. For this purpose, retrospective study of
Ayurvedic texts like Charak Samita and Puran texts
such as Shreemad Bhagwat Mahapuran, Harivansh
Puran, Linga Puran, Vayu Puran, Vishnu Puran etc
was done.
Review Of Literature :
Birth of Vasishtha
Vasishtha (I) was born as Manas Putra (desired son)
to lord Bramha along with other sages like Bhrigu,
Angira Pulstya, Pulaha, Kratu, Daksha etc. in the
swayambhuv Manvantara.
[5]
The other name of Vasishtha (II) was Mitra-varuna.
He was born in the land of Gods called ‘Elavarta’.
His mother was ‘Urwashi’ Apsara. She uses to
please both Varuna (Bramha) and Mitra (Surya).
Since she had sex with both at the same time on one
occasion, the father of the baby delivered could not
be decided. Hence, she kept the name of the baby
jointly as ‘Mitra-Varuna. Lord Surya’s other sons
were terrible like Yama, Shani etc. Since all the
other sons of lord Varuna became sages, this baby
called Mitravaruna alias Vasishtha could be
credited to Varun Bramha. Mitravaruna is supposed
to be the reincarnation of Vasishtha (I)

Wives And Progeny of Vasishtha
Vasishtha (I) married to the daughter Urja of his
brother Daksha Prajapati. From her he had seven
sons namely - 1. Raja, 2. Suhotra, 3. Bahu,4.
Sawan, 5. Anagha, 6. Sutapa, 7. Shukra
[8]
Vasishtha (I) married to the chandal daughter
Arundhati. He had eldest son called Shakti and 99
other sons from her. All they were killed by sage
Vishvamitra because of old rivalry. Shakti’s son
was sage Parashara and Parashara’s son was
famous Krishna Dwaipayan Vyasa.
[9]
[10]
Sage
Vasishtha also married Ghrutach Apsara and from
her he had son called ‘Kapinjalya’. He also married
girl called ‘Pruthvi’ and from her he had son called
‘Bhadra’. His son was Vasu and Vasu’s son was
Upamanyu. And Upamanyu’s sons were
collectively called as ‘Kaundinya’
[11]
Death And Rebirth of Vasishtha (I) As
Vasishtha (II)
Lord Brahma’s son ‘Daksha’ fathered a daughter
called ‘Aditi’. She gave birth to the son called
Vivaswan (Aaditya). Viwaswan’s son was ‘Manu’
and Manu’s son was ‘Ikshwaku’ and Ikshwaku’s
son was ‘Nimi’ along with 8 others. Nimi though
inherited a royal lineage, created a separate empire
at Mithila which is presently located in Nepal.
[12]
As per the story given in Vishnu Purana, the king
Nimi, arranged a Yagya at his place which was
going to be performed by sage Vasishtha. But as
Vasishtha went to perform Indra’s Yagya, King
Nimi, performed it at the hands of sage Gautama.
Seeing this on return, sage Vasishtha, got angry and
cursed the king Nimi to become bodyless. King
Nimi also got angry to get cursed without his fault
and in turn cursed the sage Vasishtha. Both fought
intensely with each other and got seriously injured.
Vasishtha met with the death due to curse and fight
with King Nimi. Sage Vasishtha’s sole entered the
semen of Mitravaruna and he got rebirth from the
union of Mitravaruna and Urvashi Apsara
[13] [14]
Vasishtha’s Struggle & Placement As Kulguru
of Ayodhya Dynasty
The other name of Vasishtha was Mitra-varuna. He
was born in the land of Gods called ‘Elavarta’. His
mother was ‘Urwashi’ Apsara. She uses to please
both Varuna (Bramha) and Mitra (Surya). Since she
had sex with both, the father of the baby delivered
could not be decided. Hence, she kept the name of
the baby jointly as ‘Mitra-Varuna. Lord Surya’s
other sons were terrible like Yama, Shani etc. Since
all the other sons of lord Varuna became sages, this
baby called Mitravaruna alias Vasishtha could be
credited to Varuna.
[6] [7]
In the ‘Elavarta’, sage Vashishtha received
competition from sage ‘Narada’. Vasishtha initiated
‘Agnihotra’ in the ‘Elavarta’. But Narada ridiculed
it. He didn’t accept the oblation method of
Vasishtha rather sung ‘Vamdeviya’ song (opposite
action). The competition between Vasishtha and
Narada grew to such an extent that whatever sage
Vasishtha use to do, Narada use to do the opposite
of it. Hence sage, Narada got the name ‘Vamadeva’
(opposer). Narada pleased Indra the king of
Elavarata with his praising poems and got entry into
his court. Sage Vasishtha could not get entry into
the court of Indra due to stiff opposition from
Narada. Fade up with this, sage Vasishtha, came to
Shakal Dwipa (Arabia).
In ancient days, Arabasthana was called as ‘Shakal
Dwipa’. Here also Vasishtha met with a competitor

called ‘Shukra’ who was the teacher of Daityas and
Danavas. Sage Vasishtha here also performed many
Yagyas (Oblations) but could not get that name and
fame as like Shukra.
Vasishtha later came to Bharatwarsha (India). He
became the priest of king Ekshwaku (Manu’s son).
He showed his valor in the battle of ten kings
(Dashradjnya Yuddha). During the rule of Ayodhya
king ‘Ekshvaku’, Vasishtha predicted the stale meat
of rabbit brought by Ekshwaku’s son Vikukshi. As
Vikukshi ate rabbit before it is served to the
Kulguru Vasishtha, he got the name ‘Shashad’.
Shashad was disowned by his father Ekshwaku for
telling lie.
[15] [16]
Later, sage Vasishta got rebirth through the union
of Urvashi Apsara and Varun Bramha. That time he
was named as ‘Mitravaruna’. Again, after
becoming young, he became the priest of Ekshwaku
lineage. During the rule of Ayodhya king ‘Sagar’,
Vasishtha persuaded king Sagar to forgive defeated
Shakas, Yavanas, Kambojas, Paradas, Pahalavas.
On request of minister Vasishtha, king ‘Sagar’
dehaired the Yavanas, half haired the Shakas, Made
Paradas to keep long hairs and made Pahalavas to
keep long moustache and beard. Bramhanas
boycotted all them and they came to know as
Mlenchhas (Now Muslims).
[17]
Vasishtha developed animosity with Ayodhya king
Saudas on the issue of serving human meat for the
meal. Though king Saudas was unaware of it, but
Vasishtha though that it was purposeful action on
the part of king and he cursed king Saudas to
become Bramharakshas (demon). King Saudas also
took the water in his hand to curse the Vasishta in
retaliation to his thoughtless action but his wife
Madyantika stopped him from doing so. But he has
to throw this water in hand somewhere. So, he put it
on his feet as a result of which his feet got
blackened. Hence, he was also come to know as
‘Kalmash-Pada’ (Person with black feet). His wife
urged the sage Vasishtha to forgive her husband
with lesser degree of curse (Ushap). Obliging to her
request, Vasishtha made an arrangement that king
Saudas will remain as demon for twelve years only.
During his exile in forest and life as demon
(Bramharakshas) king Saudas, kept on hunting the
animals and humans. One day he started eating one
Bramhana. The wife of that Bramhana requested a
lot to the Saudas but he didn’t show any mercy and
ate that Bramhana. The wife of Bramhana gave
curse to Saudas that he will not be able to cohabit
with his wife. Should he do that he will die. After
completing the twelve years in exile, King Saudas,
returned to his kingdom but could not cohabit with
his wife due to the earlier curse. Hence, he
requested sage Vasishtha to have sex with his wife
Madyanti and give him the progeny. Vashistha
accepted the request and had sex with queen
Madyanti. From this union, queen Madyanti had
son called ‘Ashmaka’. King Ashmaka’s son was
‘Moolaka’. When Parashuram was eliminating all
Kshatriyas from the Bharatwarsh, the queens
protected Moolaka from getting killed. Hence, he
was also come to know as ‘Nari Kavacha’ (person
protected by women). The lineage after Moolaka is
as follows :
Moolaka – Dashrath – Elvil – Vishwasaha –
Khatwanga – Deerghabahu – Raghu – Aja –
Dashratha – Rama – Kusha.

In the Bharawarsha, sage Vasishtha received

competition from sage Vishwamitra. Their rivalry
grew to the bitter extent. King Vishwamitra
attacked sage Vasishtha with his one Akshoini
Army. But he lost to the Vasishtha in the war. His
all sons were killed in the battle. Only one left
alive. In this battle, Pallavas, Kirats, Hirats,
Kambojas and Barbars helped Vasishtha in winning
the war as he obliged them during the rule of
Ayodhya king Sagar. Vishwamitra had to take
shelter in the forest because of shame. From here,
he developed relations with the Ayodhya king
Satyavrata alias Trishanku. With his help, he
challenged sage Vasishtha again. Whenever and
wherever Vasishtha and Vishwamitra use to meet
they use to quarrel. Vasishtha uses to sing the
Rigvedic richas (hymens from Rigveda) whereas
Vishwamitra use to sing opposite Atharvan richas
(hymens from Atharvaveda). Ultimately
Vishwamitra killed all the sons of sage
Vasishtha.
[19]
Vasishtha’s Attempt To Commit Suicide
On learning that sage Vishwamitra had killed all his
sons including eldest Shakti. Both sage Vasishtha
and his wife Arundhati cried a lot remembering
them. Later both decided to commit the suicide by
drowning into water. However, their daughter in
law dissuaded them from doing this by saying that
their grandson Parashara is growing in her womb.
And they have to live for him. On learning this they
withdrew their decision and started taking care of
their daughter in law and the baby later. Their
grandson Parashara on becoming young performed
yagya to kill all those Rakshasas who were
involved in the murder of his father Shakti. But on
request of his grand-father he stopped it.
[20]
Vasishtha’s Contribution To Ayurveda
Acahrya Vangasena had quoted a medicinal
preparation named ‘Vasishtha Haritaki Avaleha’
prepared by sage Vasishtha in his text Vangasen
Samhita
[1]
and by Vruddha Vagbhata in chapter
fifth of Ashtang Samgraha Chikitsasthana
[2]
.
Similarly, acharya Charaka also quoted a medicinal
preparation termed as ‘Aamalakya Bramharasaya’
in his text ‘Charak Samhita’
[3]
. Todarmala the
writer of book ‘Ayurved Saukhyam’ had given
several quotes of sage Vasishtha in chapter four of
his textbook.

Quotes of Vasishtha In Ayurved Saukhyam
Todarmala the writer of book ‘Ayurved Saukhyam’
had given several quotes of sage Vasishtha in
chapter four of his textbook.
Vasishtha’ s view on Metabolism
Sage Vasishtha is of the view that aafter the
digestion of ingested Panchabhutatmak diet, the
minute molecules of respective dietary bhutas
nourishes the respective bhutas in the body.
[21]
Vasishtha’ s view on Embryogenesis
Even for the wise person, it becomes difficult to
ascertain whether there is fragrance in a bud or not.
Similarly, it is impossible to say whether semen is
present in a child or not. Certain factors even if they
are present, are not observable because of their
subtle natrure. The fragrance of a flower can be
observed only when its petals and stamens have
appeared.
[22]
Vasishtha’ s view on Organogenesis
Sage Vasishtha is of the view that at the time of
union of sperm and ovum, five basic elements
(panchmahbhutatmak) with soul and body organs
and appendages also gets located there by virtue of

its own nature.
[23]
Vasishtha’ s view on Intrauterine Life
On the 9
th
month of pregnancy, the foetus gets
matured. In the 10
th
month, foetus develops hate
about the intrauterine environment. It thinks that
what sinful deeds it had committed in the past that
it had landed to this hell. It also feels that if by luck
it comes out of the womb, it will ask the God not
put it again into it. It also feels that after completing
the account of deed (Karmafala), it will come out
of the womb.
[24] [25]
Vasishtha’ s view on Injury to Marmas &
Prognosis
If the foreign body in Vishalyaghna marmas falls
down after suppuration, even then the person dies
and there is no doubt about it. The Vaikalyakara
marmas are dominated by the attributes of Jala
Mahabhuta. The Jala Mahabhuta is stable and
cooling, Hence, any injury to these marmas does
not result in death. The Rukkar marmas are
dominated by the attributes of Vayu and Agni
mahabhutas. Injury to the sady pranhar marmas
results in death within seven nights. Injury to the
Kalantar pranhar marmas results in death within a
fortnight or a month or two months. If there is
excessive injury in Vakailayakar and Rukkar
marmas then this also results in the death of the
patient.

Discussion :
The synonyms for sage Vasishtha were Mitavarun
and Apava. There is little difference in names of
Vasishtha’s (I) son in Puranas. As per Shreemad
Bhagwat Purana, the names of son from wife Urja
were - 1. Chitraketu, 2. Surochi, 3. Viraja,4. Mitra,
5. Ulban, 6. VasHrudyan, 7. Dyuman. Whereas as
per Linga Puran and Vishnu Purana these names are
- 1. Raja, 2. Suhotra, 3. Bahu,4. Sawan, 5. Anagha,
6. Sutapa, 7. Shukra. Whether these are synonyms
or not remains unanswered. But in Purana there is a
practice to use synonyms. The life of sage
Vasishtha was full of struggle. He received stiff
competition from contempory sages like Narada in
Elavarta, from Shukra in Arabia and from
Vishwamitra in Bharatwarsha. He lived long and
was the Kulguru of Ekshwaku dynasty. He guided
many kings of Ekshwaku lineage. He kept alive this
lineage by donating the semen to the queen
Madyanti who was king Saudas’s wife. He too like
other human beings felt devasted and tried to
commit suicide on learning about the death of his
beloved son at the hands of demon. His forgiveness
is reflected when he asked his grand son Parashar to
forgive the demons who killed his father. He was
also a brave fighter which is reflected from his
bravery in Dashragya war. He was having the great
geo political acumen which is reflected when he
gathered pahalavas, Kahambojas and Shakas and
Yavanas to fight against the Vishwamitra. He had
described the process of embryogenesis and
organogenesis. His had contributed to geriatric
medicine though his Rasayan Kalpas. He might
have experimented with the Rasayan kalpas to
enjoy longevity. Since he lived very long, the
Rasayan Kalpas described by him needs to be
studied extensively for the betterment of mankind.
Summary & Conclusion :
Sage Vasishtha was a great famous ancient Indian
scholar with many virtues. His mastery in many
sciences like military education, political science,
civil administration, priest related science and
medical science make him a versatile personality.
He had contributed to the field of Geriatric
medicine through the Rasayan Kalpas developed by
him. His thought on foetal perception during
intrauterine life make him a parapsychological
scientist who can see beyond the obvious things.
