Rasayanachikitsa is one among the asthangas of ayurveda (one among the 8 fields). Acharya Vagbhatt has placed it on the 7th rank in the chronology of these eight fields. Further Acharya Arundatt has specified that Rasayanas are not just used for prolonging life and improving quality of life, but they also help in removing the effect of toxins from the individuals body. Thus, considering the same we realize how important and diverse is the effect of Rasayanasin maintaining health of the individual. Further in the chapter dedicated to Rasayanas in Ashtang Hriday, Acharya Vagbhatt has mentioned about GokshurRasayana. It is a simple Rasayana formulation which has not been worked up upon and thus, in this article we will understand the preparation and utility of thisRasayanaand perform preliminary phytochemical examinations on the same.
