title: Prakrtivada or inheritent constitution of an individual.
abstract: Before starting the treatment, the examination of the diseased and the disease plays an important role for a successful result. Ayurveda has a clear understanding of the mental and physical constitution of the various types of patients with established criteria. This knowledge hinders the physician from stretching his hand towards a wrong medicament and from giving a wrong advise to the patient. PRAKRTI (inherent Constitution) of an individual with relevant explanations in the modern medicine, wherever possible, is put forth in the present paper.
