Re: [iastam] Re: regarding some confusing paramters in ayurveda
There is no such concept as "ovum" in ayurveda. This is a modern overlay,
I would even say corruption, of classical ayurvedic concepts. It is
important to be true as possible to the real history of ayurveda, and to
be sensitive to issues of translation, and to avoid reading contemporary
medical concepts (which are themselves subject to change) into the
classical Sanskrit texts.
