Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: Wisdom Library: Āyurveda and botanyLaghupañcamūla (लघुपञ्चमूल) is the Sanskrit name for a group of medicinal plants, classified as being a tonic and aphrodisiac. It is also known as Svalpapañcamūla. It was originally composed by Suśruta in his Suśrutasaṃhitā sūtrasthāna XXXVIII, a classic work on Āyurveda. The name is derived from the words laghu (‘light’) and pañcamūla, translating to “five roots”. Examples of plants pertaining to this category include Trikaṇṭaka, Bṛhatī (two spices), Pṛthakaparṇī and Vidārigandhā. The collection of herbs named Laghupañcamūla is but one of the thirty-seven gaṇas (‘sections’) of such groups.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
