The word Immunity has become so common that everyone of us know about it. This
Covid pandemic has taught humans about the most commonly ignored and ill treated
area, that is their Own Immunity. Suddenly everyone has turned toward the need of
having a good immunity and people are running to have it via any mean.
Now, The Word Immunity is always in conscious and subconscious minds of people.
Immunity simply means the defense of the body or resistance of body. This meaning is exactly
same for term "Vyadhikshamatva" which is mentioned for immunity in Ayurveda. It means
knowledge of Immunity was known to people thousands of year ago in form of
Vyadhikshamatva in Ayurveda.
Vyadhikshamatva is a Umbrella term that contains many other factors that are interconnected
and affect each other. It includes body resistance to everything,be it bacteria or virus or allergies
or fungus or even toxins produced by the body or the toxic food we eat.
Let us try to understand it.
We have Seven Dhatus in the body which are one of the Basics of Ayurveda. These are -
Rasa Dhatu - Plasma / lymph
Rakta Dhatu - Blood
Mamsa Dhatu - Muscles This correlation is for better understanding
Medha Dhatu - Fat of subject
Asthi Dhatu - Bone
Majja Dhatu - Bone marrow
Shukra Dhatu - Reproductive fluid
Ojas - The Immunity

Essence of these Seven dhatus is known as Ojas and this Ojas forms the base of
Vyadhikshamatva or Immunity. It also sustains life.
As already told that Quality is a basic principle in Ayurveda. A good quality Ojas will
form a good Vyadhikshamatva / Immunity. Ojas in good Quality and Quantity will only
be formed when we will have a balanced and good quality of seven dhatus.
