  • Abstract:
  • Ayurveda describes the formation of the embryo, or Garbha, as a complex process initiated by the union of shukra (sperm) and shonita (ovum) inside the mother's womb (Garbhashaya). This initial fusion creates a zygote, which is subsequently infused with the life principle (Atma). The embryonic development process involves a blend of various physical, emotional, and spiritual factors, emphasizing the significance of the mother's health, environment, and dietary habits. The interaction among the Atma, doshas, and the five elements (Panchamahabhutas) shapes the form and constitution of the developing embryo, showcasing a holistic understanding of human development. Ayurvedic embryology, the concept of doshas plays a significant role in determining the characteristics of the fetus. Each dosha—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—influences the developmental processes and organ formation in the embryo. For instance, Vata facilitates cellular division, while Pitta supports metabolic functions and maturation. The balance of these doshas during pregnancy is critical; imbalances or vitiation can lead to fetal anomalies and complications. The text also highlights how the properties of shukra and shonita, and their respective influences of Kapha and Pitta, further influence the sex and well-being of the fetus.
