Abstract

The theory of Dhatus (Tissues) is a typical element in Ayurvedic medical science. The human body contains eight main substances; known as Dhatus that give support and strength to our body. The human temperament and its behavioural manifestations are proportionally related to these substances and their proper presence is called ‘health’. Charaka, one of the great physicians of Ayurvedic medicine, methodically observed the human behaviours and temperaments. He concluded that besides physiology, human behaviours and temperaments are also motivated by various factors like environment and geography, thus fixing the platform for holistic perspectives.
