Charaka Samhita

Charaka Samhita (IAST: Caraka-Saṃhitā, “Ringkasan Charaka”) adalah sebuah teks Sanskerta tentang Ayurweda (pengobatan tradisional India).[1][2] Bersama dengan Sushruta Samhita, karya tersebut adalah salah satu dari dua teks fundasional dari bidang tersebut yang masih ada dari zaman India kuno.[3][4][5] Karya tersebut adalah salah satu dari tiga karya yang memuat Brhat Trayi.

Teks pra-abad ke-2 Masehi tersebut terdiri dari delapan kitab dan seratus dua puluh pasal.[6][7] Karya tersebut menjabarkan teori-teori kuno tentang raga manusia, etiologi, gejala dan terapi untuk sejumlah besar penyakit.[8] Charaka Samhita juga berisi tentang pengaruh gaya makan, higenitas, pencegahan, pendidikan pengobatan dan kerja kelompok tabib, perawat dan pasien yang perlu menyembuhkan kesehatannya.[9][10][11]
