Khalitya involves the Shiro as the Roga Adhishtana (Site of Disease). Shiro Abhyanga with Taila Kalpana is  effective for all Shirorogas. Bhrungaraja has been explained as Keshya in Dhanwanthari Nighantu and Kaiyyadeva  Nighantu. Hence, by taking the reference as Keshya, Bhrungaraja Taila can be made using Sneha Paka Vidhi and  given to Shiro Abhyanga and Nasya Karma in cases of Khalitya. Objectives: To evaluate the comparative efficacy of Bhringraja Panchanga, Taila Abhyanga, and Nasya in different  routes of administration. Materials and Methods: Shiro abhyanga was done every day with a similar method of massaging as mentioned in the  classics with Bhrungaraja Taila for 15 days of duration in one group, and Marsha Nasya was administered with Bhrungaraja  Taila for 7 days in the other group. Clinical signs and symptoms were given suitable scores according to their severity and  assessed based on relief after treatment. The results with a P < 0.05 were considered statistically significant in this study. Results: The overall assessment of the results showed that the subjects in Group B treated with Bhrungaraja Taila  Marsha Nasya responded well compared to the subjects in Group A treated with Bhrungaraja Taila Shiro Abhyanga.  Interpretation and Conclusion: The clinical study revealed that the drug possesses the efficacy of Bhrungaraja  Taila in Khalitya (hair fall), and thus the efficacy of Bhrungaraja Taila in this study is justified with the help of Shiro  Abhyanga and Nasya Karma.","PeriodicalId":431628,"journal":{"name":"International Research Journal of Ayurveda &amp; Yoga","volume":"62 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140475934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its efficacy on Generation Z (Gen Z) pupils, who mostly experience mental stress, remains  unknown in many cases. As at the deep root of their stress lies their inability to look at things as they are, meditative  practice, and non-judgmental awareness, are useful for them in alleviating stress. The present study focuses on the  efficacy of meditation in managing the mental stress of Gen Z pupils. Materials and Methods: Apart from the qualitative analysis of stress and mental health from a yogic perspective  through a host of relevant literature, a quasi-experimental study was conducted at Philosophy Department, Nowgong  College (Autonomous) Institution on 92 students 18–23 years of age selected through purposive sampling as subjects  from three educational institutes of Assam, India, from October 2022 to December 2022.

Samskara Guna is one of the important factors in  the hands of Ayurvedic physician for improving other third padas of Bhesaja (i.e., Bahuta, Yogyatwa, and Sampat). Thus in this study, an attempt was made to know the comparative effect of Manjistha Lepa and Samskrita Manjistha  with Madhu Lepa in the management of Mukhadushika. Aims and Objectives: The aim of the study was to study about the comparative clinical efficacy of Manjistha Lepa  and triturated with Madhu Lepa in the management of Mukhadushika. Materials and Methods: This is a single-blind comparative clinical study with a pre-test and post-test design. The  patients were randomly categorized into two groups. Forty patients of Group A (20) and Group B (20) patients were  registered from outpatient department of Government Ayurvedic College and Hospital, Balangir, and Saradeswari  Government Hospital, Balangir, presented with subjective parameters and objective parameters. After diagnosis, they  were under trial with Ayurvedic formulations of Manjistha Lepa for local application and Manjistha triturated Madhu  Lepa given 05 g in morning time daily, after drying face wash with normal water for 15 days, respectively. The  subjective and objective parameters were assessed in 7-day interval to interpret the result by statistical evaluation. Observation and Results: It had been observed that the result of trial drug Group B patients was significant (<0.05)  to reduce both subjective and objective parameters after 15 days of treatment as compared to Group A patients. In  Group A, NO patients had marked improvement, while 15% of patients had moderate improvement, 65% mildly  improved and 20% had shown unsatisfactory result. In Group B, no patients had marked improvement, 50%  moderate, 40% mildly improved, and 10% of patients showed unsatisfactory results. In both groups, the result was  statistically significant, but more improvement was noticed in Group B. Conclusion: On comparison between two groups, Manjistha triturated with Madhu Lepa in Group B had shown  more effect than Manjistha Lepa in Group A.
