Abstract

As per theory of eugenics, human race will be benefitted by producing fit and well born children. There are many ways to attain this but can prove dreadful too. Ayurveda, especially Charaka Samhita, provides a crisp and clear ideology about how each and every human can beget a superior progeny i.e. Supraja. The wisdom is found strewn across Charak Samhita. The present review is an attempt to piece together relevant references and provide a roadmap towards principles of Supraja or eugenics from Charaka Samhita. As healthy mind resides in a healthy body, such mentally and physically fit children will be a boon to the future generations to come, as our survival depends on them.
