Know Your Prakruti by Veda5 Ayurveda Yoga Wellness Retreat in Rishikesh Goa Kerala India

Gayatridevi always wondered, why her three daughters differ so much from each other. Eldest daughter Malati was plump and chubby right from birth. Her food intake always remained moderate yet she would gain weight quite easily. The youngest daughter Revati is quite opposite to this. Always an underweight person, no amount of food would increase her weight! Whenever season changes, she would be the first person to fall ill. The second daughter Aditi is hot-tempered having very sensitive bowels. Even slightly spicy food would cause her diarrhoea. Gayatridevi always needs to remain careful while cooking so that Aditi can tolerate the cooked food. For years Gayatridevi kept wondering about her daughters born with such diverse tendencies until she read a book on Ayurveda. The book acquainted her with the Ayurvedic concept of Prakruti and explained why her one daughter differs from another.

Ayurveda, Doshas & Prakruti

Whole Ayurvedic philosophy is based on the concept of three Doshas or energies, Vata, Pitta & Kapha. While every individual has all three of them, their proportion is different in every person. Person A may have more Vata energy and relatively less Pitta & Kapha energies. As against this, person B may have more Kapha energy and relatively less other two energies. These variations build up person’s Prakruti or constitution. The word ‘Prakruti’ itself means something that is natural or unadulterated. This natural design of Doshas exists in the person right from the birth and remains the same until death. It remains unchanged in the whole life.

Prakruti’s Influence on Life

Scientifically said, Prakruti is biopsychosocial blueprint of the individual which defines his physical, mental and social characteristics and personality traits. Prakruti can influence almost every aspect of life such as,

Body frame: whether person would have small, big or moderate frame

Weight: whether person would be overweight, underweight or have moderate weight

Hunger & thirst: whether person would have strong, mild or fluctuating hunger & thirst

Stools: whether person would have soft, hard or fluid stools

Urine: quantity & color of urine would also be influenced by Prakruti.

Sleep: whether person would have deep, superficial, prolonged or short span of sleep

Memory: whether person would have sharp, bad or moderately sound memory.

Likewise many other aspects of personality are actually defined by our Prakruti. In women, Prakruti also influences sizes of breasts, age of menarche & menopause, duration of monthly bleeding, quantity of discharge and quality of menses.

Why to Know Your Prakruti

The knowledge of Prakruti proves useful and beneficial in multiple ways.

Each Prakruti remains sensitive towards certain kind of illnesses and resistant towards certain other kind of illnesses. Once a person knows his Prakruti and illnesses he is likely to suffer from, he can take proper step to prevent them.

In other words, one can also say that certain Prakruti enjoy better immunity while certain other have relatively weak immunity. People with weak immunity should take extra care during season changes or while getting exposed to challenging conditions.

Some Prakruti have more stress-bearing capacity than some other Prakruti. Persons with low stress-bearing capacity should not hesitate to seek help through counselling and other means. Parents of such children should promptly make such help available to their wards instead of criticizing them for being weak or incompetent.

Each Prakruti is suitable for certain types of occupations and unsuitable for certain other types of occupations. Knowledge of Prakruti can help person choose right profession for himself or herself and minimize occupational hazards that wrong profession can cause.

Each Prakruti needs to prefer certain type of food & lifestyle beneficial to it and stay away from certain other type of food and lifestyle which can be harmful to it. Knowledge of Prakruti enables the person follow correct lifestyle & food regimen and stay fit in whole life.

Sexual needs also differ as per Prakruti. Partners having diagonally opposite Prakruti can differ considerably in the intensity of their sexual urges and their sexual requirements. As a result, they may fail to fulfill each other’s needs and expectations. Knowledge of Prakruti can help in analyzing such things and find a compatible partner.

So there is no such aspect of life that doesn’t get influenced by Prakruti. In fact, Prakruti holds key of healthy and happy life. If you don’t know your Prakruti, then get it analyzed before it’s too late!
