The word ‘samavaya’ is made up of four words. Samavaya - sama + ava + aya + gh.<ref>Shabdakalpadruma, Radhakantdev R, editors. Delhi: Amar Publication;2018.</ref> The word ‘sama’ denotes a combination; ‘ava’ means permanent, ‘aya’ means to go or to meet, ‘gh’ is the suffix. So samavaya means constant and inseparable connection, inseparable inherence or existence of one thing in another.

Application of samavaya concept: Samavaya is the sixth fundamental cause. It explains the link between substance ([[dravya]]), its qulities ([[guna]]), and actions ([[karma]]). In diagnostics and drug selection, an understanding of samavaya becomes a crucial tool. A total of 23 patients of [[ama]] were studied. In this practical investigation, it was observed that [[ama]] symptoms are linked inseparably with poor digestion and metabolism (agnimandya). The light-to-digest (laghu), dry (ruksha), and hot (ushna) properties of the trial herb Piper longum L. ([[Pippalimula]]) act on the [[ama]]. They are not present in placebo. Therefore [[pippalimula]] exhibited a substantial and better outcome in [[ama]] than placebo.<ref name=pippali/>
