Sushrut Samhita (Susruta Samhita) - Volume 1 and 2 Set of 2 Books - 2026/Ed. (Sutrasthan, Nidanasthan, Sharirasthana, Kalpashtana) Sushrutasamhita – Sanskrit Text with Hindi Translation and Champika Commentary on Dalhana *Sushrutasamhita* is one of the foundational classical texts of Ayurveda and one of the principal authorities on Shalya Tantra (Ayurvedic surgery). Traditionally attributed to Maharshi Sushruta and associated with the Dhanvantari tradition, the work presents an extensive body of knowledge relating to surgery, anatomy, diagnosis, therapeutics, surgical instruments and procedures, wound management, and numerous other subjects of Ayurvedic medicine. This two-volume edition, edited by Prof. Vaidya Banwari Lal Gaur and Dr. Vishwavasu Gaur, presents the original Sanskrit text together with a Hindi translation and the Champika commentary. A distinctive feature of the edition is the Champika commentary on the classical Dalhana commentary, which explains and elaborates upon Dalhana's interpretations of difficult and technical passages of *Sushrutasamhita*. This provides readers with access to the traditional interpretative understanding of the text in a systematic and accessible manner. The *Sushrutasamhita* comprises a comprehensive body of classical Ayurvedic knowledge, with particular emphasis on Shalya Tantra. It covers surgical techniques and instruments, wound management, anatomy, diagnosis, treatment, Kshara Karma, Agni Karma, seasonal regimen, diet and numerous other clinical and theoretical subjects. ### Volume 1 – Sutrasthana The first volume contains **Sutrasthana**, dealing with fundamental principles and extensive discussions on Shalya Tantra. It includes the tradition and education of Ayurveda, the training of the physician and student, surgical procedures, surgical instruments and their applications, wound management, Kshara Karma, Agni Karma, seasonal regimen, and other foundational subjects. The text provides detailed descriptions of the characteristics, construction, classification and practical use of surgical instruments. ### Volume 2 – Nidanasthana, Sharirasthana, Chikitsasthana and Kalpasthana The second volume covers Nidanasthana, Sharirasthana, Chikitsasthana and Kalpasthana, dealing with diagnosis, anatomy, treatment and other important clinical subjects. The Chikitsasthana presents detailed therapeutic approaches for a wide range of diseases and conditions. Champika Commentary on Dalhana: A major scholarly feature of this edition is the Champika commentary on Dalhana, one of the most important traditional commentators on *Sushrutasamhita*. The Champika commentary helps clarify Dalhana's explanations and addresses difficult terminology, textual interpretations and technical concepts found throughout the work. The sample also demonstrates how Dalhana's explanations are used to resolve apparent ambiguities in the description and application of surgical instruments. The edition therefore brings together the original Sanskrit text, Hindi translation, and the Champika commentary on Dalhana, offering readers a layered understanding of the classical text and its traditional interpretation. This comprehensive edition is particularly useful for Ayurveda students, teachers, physicians, scholars and researchers engaged in the study of *Sushrutasamhita*, Shalya Tantra and the classical Ayurvedic literary tradition. A scholarly two-volume edition combining the original Sanskrit text, Hindi translation and Champika commentary on Dalhana, designed to facilitate a deeper and more accessible study of one of Ayurveda's most important classical works.
