Abstract

Ayurveda provides an explanation of the body's many components on a microscopic and macroscopic
level. Bones, muscles, cartilages, tendon, ligaments, joints, and other connective tissues make up the
musculoskeletal system, which provides macroscopic support and binding for other tissues and organs.
You could think of these buildings as sharing certain Ayurvedic elements with one another: Peshi,
Asthi, Sandhi, Snayu, Kandara, Jala, Kurcha, Mamsarajju, Sevani, Sanghata, and Simanta. Current
anatomical concepts need more study and linking of a few sources that focus on certain portions of
these sections. The structural and functional components of muscle tissue are described using a variety
of terms, including mamsavahasrota, mamsadhara kala, mamsavahasrotamoola, Peshi, and others.
Pelava, sthula, anu, prithu, vritta, hrishwa, dirgha, sthira, mridu, slakshna, karkasa, etc. are among the
several Peshi types examined from a modern anatomical standpoint. The broad group of abdominal
muscles (rectus abdominis, diaphragm, trapezius, etc.) are addressed in the bahala portion, while the
brevis and vritta muscles are defined and explained in the hrishwa and teres sections, respectively. The
Asthivahasrota, Asthidhara kala provides an in-depth analysis of the skeletal system and its parts and
their respective roles. We also look at the morphophysiological part in relation to other parts, such the
Sandhis, Snayu, Kandara, and related structures. Consequently, this study finds the most similar
structures to those in the classics that belong to musculoskeletal components and then rationally
assesses them.
