RUJAKARA MARMA: A CONCEPTUAL REVIEW
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 12
Abstract
Marmas are part of a greater sacred physiology which maps the special sacred points just as the earth has its sacred sites and energy currents according to sacred geography. It is must to learn the sacred geography of our own body in order to attune ourselves both to the Earth and to the greater cosmos. Rujakara Marmas are the vital points in the human body which are 8 in number as Manibandha, Gulpha, Kurchashira in the upper limb and Kurchashira in the lower limb, each being two in number and cause severe pain when injured, hence the name “RUJAKARA”. The present paper highlights each of these points anatomically as per Ayurvedic literature and their modern correlation and try to conclude as what they can be compared structurally in the modern terms.
