Dr. Hitesh Meena

Abstract: The Mahabharata, one of the oldest and most significant epics in Indian literature, offers profound insights into various aspects of life, including health and well - being. This paper explores the integration of Ayurvedic health principles within the Mahabharata, focusing on concepts of balance, mental well - being, and the use of natural remedies. By examining key narratives and characters, the study highlights the epic?s depiction of the Ayurvedic principles of maintaining balance among the three doshas, managing mental health through practices of detachment and resilience, and employing natural remedies for healing. The timeless relevance of these practices is underscored, reflecting their alignment with contemporary health and wellness philosophies. Through its rich tapestry of narratives, the Mahabharata offers enduring insights into the holistic approach to health that has been a cornerstone of Indian culture for millennia.
