Die Lehre von den "Fünf Elementen" (Pancamahabhuta) als wissenschaftliche Grundlage der ayurvedischen Therapie

Abstract: The doctrine of "five gross elements" (Pancamahabhuta) forms the scientific basis of Ayurveda. Atoms of the five elements earth, water, fire, air, and aether build up the human body as well as everything material. The elementary composition of substances is found by analysing qualities (Guna) of substances. This system is fundamental to notions of physiology and therapy in Ayurveda. A summary of the doctrine of "five gross elements" is presented as taught in present-day Ayurveda.
