In the [[Charak Samhita]], it is mentioned in the [[Trimarmiya Siddhi]] that the ''mahamarmas'' should be protected with utmost vigilance. The protection of the ''mahamarmas'' which are the brain, heart, and bladder is known as ''mahamarmaparipalana''. A thorough knowledge of the seats of the life force, as well as the interventions to protect them, enables the physician to protect the life and strength of the patient, without which, no treatment will succeed. | In the [[Charak Samhita]], it is mentioned in the [[Trimarmiya Siddhi]] that the ''mahamarmas'' should be protected with utmost vigilance.
