Caraka Samhita is considered as one of the best compendia in the literature of Ayurveda and hence it has been given the status of Brhattrayī. As a teacher of Samhita it is my long-cherished dream to translate the entire text of the Caraka Samhita into English with Cakrapani commentary. The objective of taking up this project is that the core concepts of the compendium should reach to every Ayurvedik student. According to CCIM Syllabus Caraka Samhita has been divided into 2 parts viz. Purvärdha and Uttarärdha. Purvärdha consist Sutrasthana, Nidanasthäna, Vimanasthana, Sarirasthana and Indriyasthana; whereas Uttarardha consists the remaining sections such as Cikitsasthana, Kalpasthana and Siddhisthana. We have planned to complete the entire project into 4 volumes. The first volume is Sutrasthana and completed successfully within the stipulated time. The second volume contains Nidanasthana to Indriyasthana. The third volume consists Cikitsasthana and the Fourth Edition volume contains Kalpasthana and Siddhisthäna and will be published shortly. Salient features of the First Volume: In this book the original Samskyt text of Cakrapani commentary has also being composed and then translated sentence wise into English in a systematic manner for better understanding by all the readers. This book is having the unique feature of presentation of nearly 700 illustrations and tables wherever necessary for easy remembrance of subject. • The Nyāyās (maxims) mentioned by the commentator have been explained in detail in the text box separately to highlight their importance in understanding various concepts for the benefit of P.G. Scholars. This book is also supplemented with the following Annexures a. Important essay questions and short notes. b. Important Slokas to be learnt by heart. c. Alphabetical index of herbs along with their botanical names. d. Glimpses of Caraka Samhita Sutrasthana e. Rare pictures of Charekh Danda
