Abstract | The Ayurvedic principle of Janapadodhwamsa, which translates to the mass destruction of populations, provides an ancient yet highly pertinent framework for analyzing epidemics and extensive health emergencies. This concept is elaborated in classic texts like the Charaka Samhita, detailing how environmental factors such as air, water, land alterations, and seasonal variations can trigger widespread illness, regardless of individual susceptibilities. This review investigates the traditional Ayurvedic explanations of Janapadodhwamsa and assesses their relevance to contemporary public health issues, including pandemics, environmental degradation, and diseases linked to lifestyle choices. The paper draws connections between Ayurvedic environmental health factors and modern epidemiological research, highlighting the holistic and ethical aspects of disease origins. Additionally, it examines how Ayurvedic preventive measures—spiritual, rational, and psychological—can be integrated with current public health strategies. By merging ancient knowledge with contemporary scientific understanding, the Janapadodhwamsa concept provides essential perspectives for developing sustainable, ethical, and comprehensive methods in addressing global health emergencies, emphasizing the critical role of ecological harmony and social responsibility in disease prevention. |
