A Detail Study on the Role of Most Clinically Important Organ Jihwa(Tongue) in Ayurveda

Authors: Komalpreet Kaur, Gurshandeep Singh, Gurnam Singh

Abstract: Acharya Shusruta, Charaka, and Vagbhata each discussed Shareerasthana independently in their own samhitas, emphasising the value of Rachana Sharira understanding. Physicians who wish to be perfect in the field of life science must be flawless in human anatomy. Every organ in the body is vital in its own right. Sense organs are important among them. Jihwa is an Indriya among Panchendriya, according to Ayurveda. Indriyas can sense their objects only when they are supported by the mind, which is how information is viewed or memorised. Human sense organs have receptors that convey information to suitable locations within the nervous system via sensory neurons. A healthy tongue is vital for an individual's physical as well as social wellness.
