Guest guest Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 Dear Thierry As per my knowledge I do not know any specific text in Ayurveda linking eyesight and Shukradhatu. As per Ayurveda the Shukra dhatu is present in every cell. That is the reason of regeneration of every cell. The Cataract is a degenerative process causing diminishing of eyesight. The Charaka and Sushruta both said in Sutrasthana that excess intake of Lavana rasa i.e salt and salty food hamperes Shukradhatu and ability of Dyanendriya. I have seen some cases in which patients who were use to excessive intake of table salt were sufferer of diminished vision and some were from Prostate Cancer. This is my observation which I am not able to support with any other evidence.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Dear dr Upadhye and Aashish, In his commentaries of Sarvarth Chintamani, an exhaustive astrological treatise, prof B Suryanarain Rao stated: " jaundice, when unchecked, will produce loss of sight or dimness in vision by the increase of bile. Excessive sexual indulgence will take away the vitality and subject the person to various eye and bodily diseases. " Does this make sense in the ayurvedic theory ? Thanks and regards Thierry ________ well there good reference on descriptions about eyes in different places so with that of Shukrasara purusha ( here Purush needs to take as Chikitsya purush ie the one to whom we treat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Hi Thierry Although I am not aware of a specific reference to shukra depletion causing poor vision, generally speaking, poor eyesight can be a symptom of majja dhatu kshaya. In turn, majja dhatu supports shukra, so the excessive loss of shukra will deplete majja. Similar to TCM, the eyes are related to heat, to pitta, and where pitta is uncontrolled it will burn up the kapha/yin qualities of the eye that balances the fire element. Just imagine the lacrimal secretions, aqueous and vitreous humors drying up, because of excess heat. Excess heat and pungent foods/herbs also dries up and consumes shukra.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 Dear Theirry, That reminds me yet another reference mentioned in the Samanya Hetu ( Generalised aeitiology) of Netraroga (Eye Disorders ) as mentioned by Acharya Sushruta , he mentions - " Ushnanutaptasya jalpraveshad............ ...................Atimaithunat cha !! ( here this term Ati Maithunat brings our attention to excessive sexual indulgence leading to Shukrakshaya being one of the cause for the eye disorder.)
