Rationality & Mode of Action in Sweda Karma
Introduction
d k i i l d d dh• Sweda karma is not included as Pradhana
karma because of not having Dosha removal
capacities
• Sweda karma is mainly used to transport the y p
Dosha from Shakha to koshta – as a
Purvakarma of Shodhna Pannchakarma
• The shodhana (elimination) of the dosha is
possible only when dosha is in koshta andpossible only when dosha is in koshta and
abundant
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://www.technoayurveda.com/

Koshta
h h i j li l b• The Koshta is not just alimentary canal but
includes all connected organs also – such as
G llbl dd P tGallbladder, Pancreas, etc.
• Bringing the dosha to koshta means – the bio‐
waste components or residuals are transported
to GIT for elimination
• The elimination methods include either oral route
(Vamana) or rectal route (Virechana) as Poorna
shodhana and Vasti as Ardha Chikitsa (Half way
treatment –not full shodhana)
