Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: archive.org: Vagbhata’s Ashtanga Hridaya Samhita (first 5 chapters)Antyādi (अन्त्यादि) refers to the “end and beginning”, mentioned in verse 3.58 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “the two seven-day periods at the end and beginning [viz., antyādi] of two (successive) seasons (are) called ‘the junction of two seasons’. In these, the former regimen (is) gradually to be abandoned (and) the new one to be observed [...]”.
Note: Antyādi (“end and beginning”) has been translated in reverse order: thog mtha (“beginning and end”)—(corrupted to thog-ma, “beginning” in CD). The transposition is illogical, though.
