ABSTRACT
The healthy state of the body is maintained by incorporating the healthy elements in the body and simultaneously removing the toxins or waste products. The body removes these waste products in the form of feces, urine, and sweat. Kidneys are one of the main organs that produce urine. These are the two bean-shaped organs lying on each side of the spine just below the rib cage. Kidneys filter and excrete the waste minerals and free fluid from the body in the form of urine and keeps the fluid and electrolyte balance in the body. Therefore, maintaining kidney health is very essential. In this article we are going to discuss kidney diseases and their management, along with the concept of mantra therapy and ayurvedic perspective.

AYURVEDIC ASPECT OF KIDNEY AND RELATED DISEASES
Ayurvedic literature has a vast description regarding numerous medical topics. It presents that the health of body depends upon the equilibrium between the levels of various body elements such as tridosha (vata, pitta, kapha), sapta dhatu (rasa, rakta, mamsa, meda, asthi majja, shukra). When these elements are in their natural state, the health of the body is maintained and the imbalance in these will result in the depletion of health and ultimately diseased state. Thus, a person desirous of health must always put efforts to maintain these elements in their natural state through a healthy diet and lifestyle along with the ayurvedic remedies.
The kidney can be correlated to Vrikka in the ayurvedic literature. The vrikka are believed to be formed from the matraj bhav or mother’s element. It is composed of rakta and meda. The vrikka are mentioned to be two in number, bean shaped and reddish brown in color. It is related to medovaha srotas. There are various diseases described related to the vrukka such as ashmari (renal calculus), vidradhi (renal abscess), vruka arbuda (renal tumor), vrikka shotha (nephritis), etc.
