Padartha means an object or meaning derived through an aphorism (sutra) or a term (pada). It is described as an entity that reflects the meaning of one, two, or many words. [[Ayurveda]] follows Vaisheshika's philosophy while describing padartha for disease prevention and treatment. It does not include non-existence (abhava). Sankhya and Vaisheshika state that any object denoted by a word ‘(pada)’ is termed as ‘padartha’. Therefore, all the substances, qualities, actions, specialities, mutual relations, and negations fall under ‘Padartha’.[K.V.L Narasimhacharyulu, Padartha Vijnana p.29]<ref name=narasimha>K.V.L Narasimhacharyulu, Padartha Vijnana, Chapter 1, Padartha Lakshana, Sixth edition, 2015, Chaukhamba Krishnadas Academy, Varanasi.</ref> It is thus the group of alphabets that has the power to denote the meaning of any object.<ref>Basic principles of Ayurveda Padartha Vijnana, Yogesh Chandra Mishra, fore worded and edited by Jyotirmitra Acharya, Chapter 3, Pada and Padartha, Reprinted 2011, Chaukhamba Sanskrit Sansthan, Varanasi, Page no-57</ref> The padartha vijnana is a particular branch incorporated by [[Ayurveda]] and philosophical sciences to obtain specialized knowledge of all knowable objects.

The term ‘padartha’ comprises two terms namely ‘Pada’ and ‘Artha’. Pada refers to any object, a word or an inflected word or the stem of a noun in the middle cases, and before some taddhitas (derivative noun or an affix forming nouns from other nouns)[Monnier Williams dictionary]<ref name=MWD>Monier-Williams Sanskrit Dictionary 1899 Basic [Internet]. [cited 2022 May 7]. Available from: https://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/scans/MWScan/2020/web/webtc/indexcaller.php</ref>, a portion of a verse, quarter, or line of a stanza, pretext or part or portion of subject.<ref name=MWD/>

The term 'artha’ refers to aim, purpose or meaning.[Monnier Williams dictionary]<ref name=MWD/> Thus, the term ‘Padartha’ denotes the meaning of any specific term.

Charaka has listed padartha under the heading of [[tantra yukti]]. [Cha.Sa.[[Siddhi Sthana]] 12/41] Chakrapani has elaborated this concept as a means to understand the meaning of a single term or group of terms. He explains that the term [[Ayurveda]] is the combination of two terms [[Ayu]] and [[veda]]. The meaning of [[Ayu]] is life, and [[Veda]] refers to science. [Chakrapani on Cha.Sa.[[Siddhi Sthana]] 12/41]

The meaning of one word, two words, and more than two words is collectively called as ’padartha’. [Su.Sa.Uttara Sthana 65/10]<ref name= Susruta> Sushruta. Sushruta Samhita. Edited by Jadavaji Trikamji Aacharya. 8th ed.

==Classification of padartha==

All padartha in the universe are classified as existent (bhava) or non-existent (abhava) termed as sat and asat, respectively. [Cha.Sa.[[Sutra Sthana]] 11] However, Charaka has not elaborated in detail regarding the abhava padartha in comparison to Vaisheshika philosophy. Hence it is not included among the six karana mentioned in the first chapter of [[Sutra Sthana]].

The origin of the concept of shad padartha traces back to the period of the propagation of [[Ayurveda]] on the earth. The sages desirous of long life and concerned about the well-being of creatures, visualised the six padartha to achieve life's goals. This is considered as the results of the first research developed on the basis of experiential knowledge of sages. [Cha.Sa.[[Sutra Sthana]] 1/28] Both [[Charaka Samhita]] and Vaisheshika philosophy describe these six padartha, but with alterations in the sequence. [[Charaka Samhita]] being a medical texts focuses more on the clinical aspect of the concept. Hence there is mention of [[samanya]]-[[vishesha]] before the [[dravya]]. Vaisheshika philosophy states [[dravya]] as the foremost padartha. [Cha.Sa.[[Sutra Sthana]] 1/29] As equilibrium of body components (dhatusamya) is considered as the ultimate aim of [[Ayurveda]], samanyavishesha principles have been given immense importance amongst the six padartha. The six padartha namely [[dravya]] (material substances), [[guna]] (attributes), [[karma]] (action), [[samanya]] (similarities), [[vishesha]] (dissimilarities) and [[samavaya]] (inseparable concomitance) are the tools to achieve the equilibrium of body components (dhatusamya).

==Padartha- a type of [[tantra yukti]]==

[[Tantra yukti]] are tools to decipher and understand the texts. These are cannons of exposition meant for a deep understanding of concepts in the text. Padartha is described as one of the 36 types of [[tantra yukti]].  [Chakrapani on Cha.Sa.[[Siddhi Sthana]] 12/41-45] It is intended for any object or word's specific or technical meaning. [Cha.Sa.[[Siddhi Sthana]] 12/41-45] For instance, the meaning of Kashaya in the context of [[Ayurveda]] pharmacology is referred to as a type of rasa (taste) or a type of clothing worn by the student or five types of forms of medicines (panchavidha kashaya kalpana)
