India history and geography

Vaida (वैद).—The people and their Indian rulers implicitly believed in the vaidas (or, vaids) who studied the ayurveda or the science or practice of medicine. Each court had a number of such Indian practitioners, and that of Baroda was no exception to the rule.

A stranger visiting the Maratha State in search of employment as a vaida or hakim was examined as for his qualifications by a committee of presumed authorities in Indian systems of medicines; and, having satisfied their tests, he was recommended to the Raja, either for monetary reward or for employment. If employed, he became an hereditary servant of the State.

context information

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.
