Abstract

This perspective study delves into Agni within the context of Ayurvedic philosophy. The paper explores Agni's portrayal in Vedic and Ayurvedic texts, examining its perspective in processes such as metabolism and digestion, for which the study encompasses Agni's representation in Vedas, Upanishads, Nyaya Darshan, and specific terminologies and key Ayurvedic texts. The analysis reveals the intricate relationship between Agni and concepts like Pitta dosha, digestion, and bodily development.
