The name is derived from the words saṃjñā, translating to “consciousness”, and sthāpana, translating to “maintaining” or “preserving”. It is a technical term used throughout Āyurveda. Examples of plants pertaining to this category include Kaitarya (Melia sempervirens), Vayasthā (Gratiola monnieria) and Golomi (Corydalis goyaniana).
