[[Unmada Chikitsa]] describes the management of ''unmada'' (insanity). The approach to the management of individual types of ''unmada'' have been elaborately described. The uniqueness of the chapter lies in the broad description of all three forms of therapies described in Ayurvedic System  i.e. ''yukti-vyapashraya'' (rational treatment) to ''daiva- vyapashraya'' ( spiritual therapy) and ''sattvavajaya chikitsa'' (psychotherapy) for the management. Apart from these three types, the fourth type of therapy, called ''upayabhipluta'' (consolation, mental support) ''chikitsa'', which incorporates a variety of non–pharmacological methods of treatment has also been described. ''Unmada'' is the only disease entity in the entire classical Ayurvedic literature, which requires such an extensive and broad spectrum of management principles, techniques, drugs, counseling, psychotherapy and therapeutic modalities, which are to be judiciously utilized by the clinicians based on their  specific indications and the state of the disease.

The ''unmada'' covers a wide range of major mental disorders and is considered synonymous with  madness and mental derangement, in which a person loses his/her contact from reality and loses the ability to regulate his/her actions and conduct according to norms of the society. In ''unmada'' there is upward movement of ''[[dosha]]s'' leading to disturbance in the functions of ''[[manas]]'' causing ''mada'' ( delusional/ intoxicated state ) in an individual. The factual clinical picture of the mental status of psychotic patients is vividly described. This description suggests that a patient of ''unmada'' develops derangement of all the activities of ''[[manas]]'' (mind), ''[[buddhi]]''(intellect), ''ahamkara'' (conceit of self-individuality) and ''[[indriya]]s'' (senses). He develops thought disturbances in the form of abnormalities of ''chintana'' (thinking), ''vichara''(discrimination) and ''uhya'' (analysis), derangement of memory in the form of ''smriti nasha'' (loss of memory) and ''smriti bramsha'' (impairment of memory), behavioral, social and emotional disturbances in the form of abnormalities of ''achara'' (behaviour), ''dharma'' (eternal duties) and ''bhavas'' (mental factors) along with functional derangement of ''[[indriya]]s'' which is manifested clinically as disturbed speech and its various presentations like incoherence (''abaddha vakyama''), thought blocking (''hridaya shunyata'' ), loosening of associations, neologism, echolalia etc. and various psycho-motor disturbances .
  
'''Keywords''': ''unmada, manas,'' schizophrenia, manic psychosis, psychotic depression / major depressive disorder, treatment of psychiatric disorders

Thus, ''unmada'' is not a lone clinical entity comparable to a single modern diagnostic category, rather it is a syndrome describing a group of psychotic disorders. It is a common and broader entity, which provides guidance to the line of management for almost all psychiatric disorders in [[Ayurveda]]. In this ailment, the intellect, mind and memory get perverted. ''Unmada'' can be described as the disordered state of mind, in which an individual loses the ability of regulating his/her actions and conduct according to the rules of society.  As the psychotic disorders  cover almost all the major mental illnesses, the different types and sub-types of ''unmada'' can be separately correlated with different psychotic disorders. The clinical features of the different types of ''unmada'' resemble various types of schizophrenia, manic psychosis, psychotic depression / major depressive disorder. ''Unmada'' is divided into two broad categories –

The medicated ''ghrita'', the most preferred dosage form for the management, enhances intellect, memory and plays an important role in the treatment of ''unmada''. Hence many ''ghrita'' formulations have been described for the management. ''Anjana'' and ''[[nasya]]'' are other treatment modalities indicated in ''unmada''. Vagbhata emphasizes upon their importance by saying that if all medications for ''unmada'' like ''[[vamana]], [[virechana]]'' etc. fail, one should do ''teekshna anjana'' and ''[[nasya]] karma''. </div>

There from the channels carrying mental factors (''mano-vaha srotasas''), quickly delude the mind of the person. [5]

In the same way, the twenty one drugs beginning with ''sthira'' (''shalparni'') are boiled in water. With this decoction ghee is cooked adding four times milk of ''primi para'' cow (milk collected from the cow after its first delivery) and paste of vira, two types of ''masha'' (''masha'' and ''rajmasha'') , ''kakoli, kapikacchu, rishabhaka'' and ''riddhi''. This ''mahakalyanaka ghrita'' is particularly nourishing (bulk promoting) and an excellent alleviator of ''sannipata'' (simultaneous vitiation of all three ''doshas''). [42 1/2-44]

=== Therapeutic utility of old ghee ===
  
 
Old ghee alleviates ''tridosha'', particularly destroys demonic seizures because of being pure/sacred nature, by intake is more potent in properties and is pungent- bitter in taste. The ghee stored for ten years is taken as old (''puraana ghrita''). It is irritant in smell.  In color it is like solution of lacquer in appearance, cold and destroys all ''grahas''. It promotes intellect and is an excellent purgative.

Ghee kept beyond ten years is called as ''pra-purana'' (extremely old). There is no disease, which is incurable for the ghee which is old by one hundred years. It destroys all the ''grahas'' by seeing, touching, inhaling and is particularly recommended for those suffering from epilepsy (''apasmara''), ''grahas'' (demonic seizures) and ''unmada'' . [59-62]

== Tattva Vimarsha (Fundamental Principles) ==
 +
 
 +
*The diet poor in qualities, behavioral abnormalities, frequent psychological trauma mainly due to fear or exhilaration and irregular postures play important role in causing ''unmada''.
 +
*The individual with low mental strength (level of ''[[sattva]] guna'' as in weak minded people) are more susceptible for ''unmada''.
 +
*''Hridaya'' (seat of mind) also holds the site of intellectual functions and it is vitiated in patho-physiology of ''unmada''.
 +
*''Unmada'' involves excessive affliction of intellect, mind and memory. This may be due to either endogenous causes or exogenous causes.
 +
*The endogenous causes include vitiation of ''[[dosha]]'' resulting in variety of ''unmada'' with their dominance. ''Sharira [[dosha]]'' can afflict the psyche, intellect and memory to cause a psycho-somatic disorder. 
 +
*External social, psychological and spiritual factors can also lead to exogenous ''unmada'' in similar way.
 +
*Diagnosis of exogenous ''unmada'' is based upon the behavior pattern of afflicted person. The treatment includes assessment of intention of the spirits in terms of pleasure and worship. It should be ascertained as such by the liking (intentions) and behavior (conduct) of the patients  and should be treated with administration of the ''mantras'' (incantations/hymns) and drugs mixed with the respective gifts and offerings. This is immaterialistic treatment.
 +
*Various purification procedures are administered as per the ''[[dosha]]'' dominance, strength of the patient.
 +
*In order to prevent from getting afflicted by ''unmada'', the person shall have preponderance of ''[[sattva]]'' (strong mental strength), abstaining from meat and wine, taking wholesome diet, sincere and disciplined and observing purity of mind and body.
 +
*The objective of cure in ''unmada'' includes blissful feeling (in perception) of sense objects and also of intellect, self and mind along with normalcy of tissue elements (''[[dhatu]]s'') are the signs of having recovered from ''unmada''.

=== Similar conditions observed in contemporary psychiatry ===
 +
 
 +
==== ''Nija unmada'' (endogenous psychoses) ====
 +
 
 +
#''[[Vata]]'' dominant ''unmada'' is similar to excited catatonic type of schizophrenia and is acute form of schizophrenia. These patients present with the symptoms of catatonic excitement with general symptoms of ''unmada''. It is produced due to vitiation of ''[[vata]]'' along with ''[[rajas]]'' and ''[[tamas]] doshas''. Due to excess of ''[[rajas]]'' and ''[[vata]]'', catatonic excitement occurs.
 +
#The ''[[pitta]]'' dominant ''unmada'' is similar to maniac psychosis. The patients and mania, show a generalised functional overactivity or increased psychomotor activity, excitability of mood, constant movement, increased talkativeness, aggressive behavior, irritability as the prominent symptoms.
 +
#The Features of ''[[kapha]]ja unmada'' resemble closely with stuporous catatonic schizophrenia and major depressive disorder and thus they can be correlated.
 +
#There are clinical conditions in which alternating phases of depression and mania, known as bipolar disorders or maniac depressive psychosis. Similarly, there are forms of schizophrenia, in which excited catatonia and stuporous catatonia are alternatively present (periodic catatonia). These conditions, based upon particular ''doshic'' combination in the pathogenesis, as indicated by ''[[kapha]]'' is aggravated along with ''[[pitta]]''.
 +
#All types of chronic, incapacitating psychotic conditions are included under the category of ''sannipatika / tridoshaja unmada''. Hebephrenic schizophrenia, chronic schizophrenia and residual schizophrenia come under this category, again the difference being predominance of the ''[[dosha]]s'' involved in the psychopathogenesis.
 +
 
 +
==== ''Agantuja unmada'' (exogenous psychoses)====
 +
 
 +
#Various psychoses due to possession of ''grahas'' and ''bhutas'' (supernatural beings) are included under ''agantuja unmada'', which should be regarded as suffering from paranoid schizophrenia, paranoia and various other paranoid states. Paranoid schizophrenia is characterized by predominance of delusions.
 +
#It is important to mention that ''grahas'' have been christened only on the basis of the resemblance of the clinical features of the afflicted individual with the activities of those grahas e.g. gods, gandharvas etc. It is not that these have entered into the the body of the afflicted individual. This is just the way of presentation and the writing style in [[Ayurveda]] to personify an event/process. This form of presentation is somewhat similar to syndromic classification in conventional modern medicine. Because of similarity of clinical symptoms, the patients are said to be suffering from some ''graha.'' These individual syndromes can also be correlated to a single disease entity from modern perspective.

=== Management of ''unmada'' ===

 +
==== ''Yuktivyapashraya  Chikitsa'' (rational treatment) ====
 +

The purification procedures prescribed in ''unmada'' are :(1) ''[[Nasya]]'' (2) ''[[Vamana]]'' (3) ''[[Virechana]]'' (4) ''Niruha [[basti]]'' (5) ''Anuvasana [[basti]]''. Besides these five chief ''karmas'', two other preparatory and axillary ''karmas'' are indicated i.e. ''[[snehana]] karma'' and ''[[swedana]] karmas''. ''[[Snehana]] karmas'' are also carried out as ''shamana'' (pacification) therapy with low dose ''sneha''. Especially in major psychiatric illness it is considered as a separate therapy. The other measures like ''pradeha, utsadana, abhyanga, dhuma, snehapana,'' etc. are also administered which stimulates the mind, intellect, memory and consciousness of the patient.
  
Thus, ends ninth chapter on the treatment of unmada in chikitsa sthana in the treatise composed by Agnivesha, redacted by Charak and reconstructed by Dridhbala as it was unavailable.[9]

''Siravedha'' (venesection): Besides the above methods, surgical techniques like ''siravedha'' (venesection) are also advocated in the treatment of mental disorders and hysteria.

In ''[[vata]]ja unmada, snehapana'' has to be done. If the passage of ''[[vayu]]'' is obstructed laxative along with ''sneha'' should be given. In ''[[kapha]]ja unmada, [[vamana]]'' must be done. In ''[[pitta]]ja unmada, [[virechana]]'' must be done. After completing purification, ''samsarjana karma'' (lighter to heavier diet gradually) must be given. The purification of body also leads to blissful state of mind and sense organs.
  
• The diet poor in qualities, behavioural abnormalities, frequent psychological trauma mainly due to fear or exhilaration and irregular postures play important role in causing unmada.

Even after the body is cleansed, if the patient exhibits perversion of conduct, he should be given strong ''navanam, anjanam, taadanam.''

==== Concept and rationale of ''ghrita-pana/ shamana sneha pana'' ====
  
Similar conditions observed in contemporary psychiatry:
+
''Snehapana'' is specially indicated in ''unmada. Shamana sneha'' includes the measures that bring down the increased ''[[dosha]]s'' to normal stage without expelling them out and without disturbing balance of other normal ''[[dosha]]s''. The properties like ''sukshma, snigdha, picchila'' and ''manda'' operate pharmacologically to pacify ''unmada''.  
Nija unmada (endogenous psychoses):
 
1.Vata dominant unmada is similar to excited catatonic type of schizophrenia and is acute form of schizophrenia. These patients present with the symptoms of catatonic excitement with general symptoms of unmada. It is produced due to vitiation of vata along with rajas and tamas doshas. Due to excess of rajas and vata, catatonic exitement occurs.
 
2. The pitta dominant unmada is similar to maniac psychosis. The patients and mania, show a generalised functional overactivity or increased psychomotor activity, excitability of mood, constant movement, increased talkativeness, aggressive behaviour, irritability as the prominent symptoms.
 
3. The Features of kaphaja unmada resemble closely with stuporous catatonic schizophrenia and major depressive disorder and thus they can be correlated.
 
4. There are clinical conditions in which alternating phases of depression and mania, known as bipolar disorders or maniac depressive psychosis. Similarly, there are forms of schizophrenia, in which excited catatonia and stuporous catatonia are alternatively present (periodic catatonia). These conditions, based upon particular doshic combination in the pathogenesis, as indicated by kapha is arrgavated along with pitta.
 
5. All types of chronic, incapacitating psychotic conditions are included under the category of sannipatik / tridoshaja unmada. Hebephrenic schizophrenia, chronic schizophrenia and residual schizophrenia come under this category, again the difference being predominance of the doshas involved in the psychopathogenesis.
 
  
Agantuja unmada (exogenous psychoses):

==== Recommended therapies for ''[[dosha]]'' dominant ''unmada'' ====
6. Various psychoses due to possession of grahas & bhutas (supernatural beings) are included under agantuja unmada, which should be regarded as suffering from paranoid schizophrenia, paranoia and various other paranoid states. Paranoid schizophrenia is characterized by predominance of delusions.
 
7. It is important to mention that grahas have been christened only on the basis of the resemblance of the clinical features of the afflicted individual with the activities of those grahas e.g. gods, gandharvas etc. It is not that these have entered into the boby of the afflicted individual. This is just the way of presentation and the writing style in Ayurveda to personify  an event/process. This form of presentation is somewhat similar to syndromic classification in conventional modern medicine. Because of similarity of clinical symptoms, the patients are said to be suffering from so and so grahas. These individual  syndromes can also be correlated to a single disease entity from modern perspective.
 
Management of unmada:
 
I.  Yuktivyapashraya  Chikitsa (rational treatment):
 
The purification procedures prescribed in unmade are :(1) Nasya (2) Vamana (3) Virecana (4) Niruha basti (5) Anuvasana basti. Besides these five chief karmas, two other preparatory and axillary karmas are indicated i.e. snehana karma and swedana karmas. Snehana karmas are also carried out as shamana (pacification) therapy with low dose sneha. Especially in major psychiatric illness it is considered as a separate therapy. The other measures like pradeha, utsadana, abhyanga, dhuma, snehapana, etc. are also administered which stimulates the mind, intellect, memory and consciousness of the patient.
 
Siravedha (venesection): Besides the above methods, surgical techniques like siravedha (venesection) are also advocated in the treatment of mental disorders and hysteria.
 
In vataja unmada, snehapanam has to be done. If the passage of vayu is obstructed laxative along with sneha should be given. In kaphaja unmada, vamana must be done. In pittaja unmada, virechana must be done. After completing purification, samsarjana karma (lighter to heavier diet gradually) must be given. The purification of body also leads to blissful state of mind and sense organs.
 
Even after the body is cleansed, if the patient exhibits perversion of conduct, he should be given strong navanam, anjanam, taadanam.
 
Concept & rationale of ghrita- pana/ shamana sneha pana:
 
Snehapana is specially indicated in unmada. Shamana sneha includes the measures that bring down the increased doshas to normal stage without expelling them out and without disturbing balance of other normal doshas. The properties like sukshma, snigdha, picchila and manda operate pharmacologically to pacify unmada.

==== ''Satvavajaya'' ====
 +
 
 +
The methods of yuktivyapasraya treatment have been prescribed in the treatment of mental diseases. But in the derailment of manasika doshas, it is  essential that the line of treatment of mental diseases should be specific and  based on the theory of balancing the mental doshas ([[rajas]] and [[tamas]]). Taking into consideration all these factors, most probably in [[Ayurveda]] a separate classification of satvavajaya treatment has been specially mentioned. Charak defines it as a mind control therapy in which stress will be laid on restraining the mind from unwholesome arthas (objects). Certain techniques have been mentioned for this therapy.
 +
 
 +
The inclusion of satvavajaya chikitsa, within these primary classifications of treatment of diseases, clearly indicates that this therapy of mano-nigraha was adopted in those days as a practical therapy to over come the psychological and psychosomatic diseases. While describing the principles of treatment, Charak prescribes the following methods of treatment for mental diseases:
 +
 
 +
#Jnana (knowledge of spiritual scriptures)
 +
#Vijnana (scientific knowledge)
 +
#Dhairya (sustaining courage in adverse conditions)
 +
#[[Smrti]] (good memories)
 +
#Samadhi (meditation and contemplation).
 +
 
 +
In another reference, Charak prescribes the following treatment for the mental diseases, which resembles the above lines of treatment:
 +
 
 +
#Trivarga anveshana: Contemplation of the three objectives of life- dharma, artha, and kama
 +
#Tadvidyaseva : Service of those who are well versed in the treatment of mental diseases.
 +
#Atmajnana : Self-realization.
 +
#Kula-kala, desha, bala jnana: The knowledge about ones own self, country, family, age, vitality and ability.
 +

Satvavajaya: The methods of yuktivyapasraya treatment have been prescribed in the treatment of mental diseases. But in the derailment of manasika doshas, it is  essential that the line of treatment of mental diseases should be specific and  based on the theory of balancing the mental doshas (rajas and tamas). Taking  into consideration all these factors, most probably in Ayurveda a separate classification of satvavajaya treatment has been specially mentioned. Caraka defines it as a mind control therapy in which stress will be laid on restraining the mind from unwholesome arthas (objects) . Certain techniques have been mentioned for this therapy. The inclusion of satvavajaya chikitsa, within these primary classifications of treatment of diseases, clearly indicates that this therapy of mano-nigraha was adopted in those days as a practical therapy to over come the psychological & psycho- somatic diseases. While describing the principles of treatment, Caraka prescribes  the  following methods of treatment for mental diseases:
 
1. Jnana (knowledge of spiritual scriptures) 2. Vijnana (scientific knowledge) 3. Dhairya (sustaining courage in adverse conditions) 4. Smrti (good memories)5. Samadhi (meditation and contemplation).

Summary  -
 
 
Manovahasrotas can be understood as the channels conducting various factors that regulate behavior. Vitiation of these srotas at different levels produce abnormal behavioral patterns thereby bringing about the psychological & behavioural symptoms of unmada vis-à-vis psychosis. A number of formulations, treatment modalities, procedures and therapeutic techniques have been described with predominance of lipid predominant dosage forms esp. ghritas & tailas, which seems to be so formulated as to exert maximum effect on neural tissue by increasing bio-availability of formulation by increased ability to cross blood –brain barrier. All the preventive measures mentioned by Acaryas are aimed at bestowing relaxation and mental balance, which are the basic prerequisites of a sound mind. It may be mentioned here that sharira shuddhi is needed before attaining manasika shuddhi.

The nourishing medhya medications described are particularly relevant to our times when we are forced to battle continuously against stress and strain. Need of the hour is to find practically useful formulations and treatment procedures, scrutinize them thoroughly, which would help to effectively treat the psychotic states. It may not be exaggartion to say that unmada is the only disease entity in the entire classical Ayurvedic literature where such a comprehensive management has been described and almost all the prevailing methods & forms of therapy have been used hand in hand .

Abstract

Unmada Chikitsa describes the management of unmada (insanity). The approach to the management of individual types of unmada have been elaborately described. The uniqueness of the chapter lies in the broad description of all three forms of therapies described in Ayurvedic System i.e. yukti-vyapashraya (rational treatment) to daiva- vyapashraya ( spiritual therapy) and sattvavajaya chikitsa (psychotherapy) for the management. Apart from these three types, the fourth type of therapy, called upayabhipluta (consolation, mental support) chikitsa, which incorporates a variety of non–pharmacological methods of treatment has also been described. Unmada is the only disease entity in the entire classical Ayurvedic literature, which requires such an extensive and broad spectrum of management principles, techniques, drugs, counseling, psychotherapy and therapeutic modalities, which are to be judiciously utilized by the clinicians based on their specific indications and the state of the disease.
Keywords: unmada, manas, schizophrenia, manic psychosis, psychotic depression / major depressive disorder, treatment of psychiatric disorders

Introduction

The unmada covers a wide range of major mental disorders and is considered synonymous with madness and mental derangement, in which a person loses his/her contact from reality and loses the ability to regulate his/her actions and conduct according to norms of the society. In unmada there is upward movement of doshas leading to disturbance in the functions of manas causing mada ( delusional/ intoxicated state ) in an individual. The factual clinical picture of the mental status of psychotic patients is vividly described. This description suggests that a patient of unmada develops derangement of all the activities of manas (mind), buddhi(intellect), ahamkara (conceit of self-individuality) and indriyas (senses). He develops thought disturbances in the form of abnormalities of chintana (thinking), vichara(discrimination) and uhya (analysis), derangement of memory in the form of smriti nasha (loss of memory) and smriti bramsha (impairment of memory), behavioral, social and emotional disturbances in the form of abnormalities of achara (behaviour), dharma (eternal duties) and bhavas (mental factors) along with functional derangement of indriyas which is manifested clinically as disturbed speech and its various presentations like incoherence (abaddha vakyama), thought blocking (hridaya shunyata ), loosening of associations, neologism, echolalia etc. and various psycho-motor disturbances .

Thus, unmada is not a lone clinical entity comparable to a single modern diagnostic category, rather it is a syndrome describing a group of psychotic disorders. It is a common and broader entity, which provides guidance to the line of management for almost all psychiatric disorders in Ayurveda. In this ailment, the intellect, mind and memory get perverted. Unmada can be described as the disordered state of mind, in which an individual loses the ability of regulating his/her actions and conduct according to the rules of society. As the psychotic disorders cover almost all the major mental illnesses, the different types and sub-types of unmada can be separately correlated with different psychotic disorders. The clinical features of the different types of unmada resemble various types of schizophrenia, manic psychosis, psychotic depression / major depressive disorder. Unmada is divided into two broad categories –

(1) Nija- those caused by internal imbalance of body humors i.e. vata, pitta, kapha and the sannipataja and the

(2) Agantunimitta- those caused by exogenous factors.

The medicated ghrita, the most preferred dosage form for the management, enhances intellect, memory and plays an important role in the treatment of unmada. Hence many ghrita formulations have been described for the management. Anjana and nasya are other treatment modalities indicated in unmada. Vagbhata emphasizes upon their importance by saying that if all medications for unmada like vamana, virechana etc. fail, one should do teekshna anjana and nasya karma.

By the above causative factors, the doshas get vitiated in the person possessing low level of sattva guna (weak minded people) in turn vitiate hridaya (mind), which ise seat of intellect. There from the channels carrying mental factors (mano-vaha srotasas), quickly delude the mind of the person. [5]

Perverted intellect, psychic agitation, restlessness in eyes, impatience, incoherent speech and feeling of emptiness in hridaya (mind), these are the general features of unmada.

Thus, the person with deranged mind does not know pleasures, pain, ethics and eternal duties and does not get peace anywhere. Therefore, he lets the mind wander here and there due to loss of memory, intellect and perceptions. [6-7]

Unmada refers to excessive affliction of intellect, mind and memory. This is of two types – nija (endogenous) and agantuja (exogenous). According to origin, it is of five types.(I) will describe their symptoms and treatment separately.[8]

Vata dominant unmada

Vata gets aggravated by the intake of rough, deficient in quantity and cold in property food, excessive evacuation of doshas, depletion of body tissues and fasting. This aggravated vata affects the hridaya (site of mind), which is already afflicted with anxiety etc. and thus quickly deranges intellect and memory.

Laughing, smiling, dancing, singing, speaking, abnormal movement of body parts, weeping at improper places and improper time, roughness, emaciation, reddish discoloration of body parts and aggravation of the disease after digestion of food; are the clinical features of the vata dominant unmada .[9-10]

Pitta dominant unmada

The already accumulated pitta gets aggravated due to indigestion, by the intake of pungent, sour food, those articles causing burning sensation, and hot in potency. It takes shelter in the hridaya (site of mind) in the person without self restraint and thus suddenly gives rise to severe episode of unmada as per the above mentioned pathogenesis.

Intolerance, agitation, nakedness, terrorizing, excessive movements, (running), heat, wrath (anger), yellowish luster and desire for dense shady places, cold food - are the clinical features of pitta dominant unmada. [11-12]

Kapha dominant unmada

In the persons taking excessive food and doing slow activities (having sedentary habits), kapha along with heat (pitta) increases in their vital organ (hridaya), impairing intellect and memory and thereby deranging their mind produces insanity. Slow speech and movements, anorexia, and liking for women and loneliness, excessive sleep, vomiting, salivation, aggravation of the disease after taking meals and whiteness of nails etc.– these are the clinical features of the kapha dominant unmada. [13-14]

Sannipata unmada (due to vitiation of all doshas)

यः सन्निपातप्रभवोऽतिघोरः सर्वैः समस्तैः स च हेतुभिः स्यात्|
सर्वाणि रूपाणि बिभर्ति तादृग्विरुद्घभैषज्यविधिर्विवर्ज्यः||१५||

The severe type of unmada arising from sannipata (aggravation of all three doshas) is caused by all the above etiological factors. It presents with all the above characters in mixed form and because of antagonistic therapeutic principles, it is difficult to treat and therefore should be rejected. [15]

Agantu unmada (exogenous type)

Possession by the gods, sages, gandharvas (celestial choristers), pishachas (devils), yakshas (living supernatural being/spiritual apparition), rakshasas (demons) and pitru(forefathers/ancestors spirits); unmethodical performance of spiritual rituals and vows etc. and the deeds of past life are the causes of the exogenous type of unmada. [16]

Celestial beings invisibly and swiftly enter into the body of a person by their own supernatural effect without affecting the body of the individual. This simulates with as image enter the mirror and sunlight enters the sun-stone. [18]

As said earlier in the diagnosis -section, prodromal features coincide with the entry of celestial beings. Now listen about the symptoms of various types separately, time of affliction and susceptible person. [19]

Of the above varieties of unmadas, he who strikes at others or himself, without hesitation raising his hands with wrath and agitation should be considered as incurable. He who has tearful eyes, hemorrhage from penis, wounded tongue, running nose, a bruised skin, uninteractable hands, constantly groaning, deranged complexion, excessive thirst and foul smell should be known as maddened by a violent type of spirits (grahas) and should not be treated.

Now I will describe in brief and detail the treatment of both the endogenous and exogenous types of unmada.

In vata dominant type, first of all one should prescribe intake of oils and ghritas (sneha) substance but if there is obstruction in channels, mild unctuous evacuatives in small quantities should be administered.

If the insanity is caused by kapha and pitta, emesis and purgation should be given after unction and sudation. Post- evacuation dietetic regimen should be prescribed (gradually from lighter to heavier diet as per prescribed procedure). Thereafter non-unctuous (niruha) and unctuous (anuvasana) enema and nasal errhines (shiro-virechana) should be administrated.

Depending upon the predominance of doshas, one or the other of the above measures should be repeatedly applied.

By the administration of these therapeutic measures, heart, sense organs, head and bowels (koshtha) get cleansed as a result of which the mind gets refreshed and the patient regains memory as well as consciousness.

Even after the completion of above cleansing procedure, if the abnormal behaviour persists, the application of irritant snuffing, collyrium and beating should be done, which are useful for stimulating his mind, intellect and body.

One who is non-submissive and strong in physique, should be bound with firm and soft cotton bandage and should be confined in a dark room free from irons rods, wooden pieces etc.

Verbal teasing or threatening/shouting with anger (tarjana), terrorizing (trasanam), gifts /donations(danam), gladdening and exhilaration(hanshanam), consolation (santwanam), frightening(bhayam) and astonishing/exhibition of surprising acts (vismaya) restore the mind to normalcy by diverting it and counteracting the causes of loss of memory.

The patients suffering from unmada should be administered thick ointment (pradeha), anointing (utsadana), massage (abhyanga), fumigation (dhuma) and intake of ghee to arouse mind, intellect, memory and consciousness.

In exogenous type of unmada, intake of ghee (sarpih pana) etc. along with chanting of hymns (mantras) is recommended for the benefit of the patient. [24-32]

Now listen, some of the most efficacious formulations for alleviating the unmada.

Hingu, sauvarchala and trikatu (shunthi , maricha and pippali ) each 80 gm (two palas) should be made to paste and cooked with one adhaka of ghee (2.56 kg ) and four times cow’s urine is a tested destroyer of unmada.[33-34]

  1. Ten year old ghee cooked with hingu, hinguparni, kayastha, vayastha is useful.
  2. Similar is the ghee cooked with vayastha, hingu and choraka. The old ghee alone or cooked with the above drugs be administered.

After administrating the maximum dose the patient should be kept in isolation in some underground ditch or room. Particularly old ghee should be administrated to the patients of unmada. [57-58]

Therapeutic utility of old ghee

Old ghee alleviates tridosha, particularly destroys demonic seizures because of being pure/sacred nature, by intake is more potent in properties and is pungent- bitter in taste. The ghee stored for ten years is taken as old (puraana ghrita). It is irritant in smell. In color it is like solution of lacquer in appearance, cold and destroys all grahas. It promotes intellect and is an excellent purgative.

Ghee kept beyond ten years is called as pra-purana (extremely old). There is no disease, which is incurable for the ghee which is old by one hundred years. It destroys all the grahas by seeing, touching, inhaling and is particularly recommended for those suffering from epilepsy (apasmara), grahas (demonic seizures) and unmada . [59-62]

If the patient does not come under control, the following formulations should be use as collyrium (anjana), anointing (utsadana), paste (alepa), inhalation therapy (navana) etc. [63 1/2]

Shirisha, madhuka, hingu, lashuna, tagara, vacha and kushtha powdered and triturated with goat’s urine are useful for snuff and collyrium.

Likewise, trikatu, two types of haridra, manjishtha, hingu, sarshapa, seeds of shirisha used as snuff and collyrium, alleviate unmada, grahas and epilepsy. [641/2-1/2 66]

Apamarga, hingu, haratala, and hingupatrika- in equal quantity, maricha in half quantity are powdered with bile of cow and jackal and made into wick (varieties). This stick is applied to eyes in epilepsy, unmada, caused by evil spirits, possession by evil spirits and gods and in eye disease. [661/2-1/2 68]

Maricha impregnated with (the above) bile and kept in the sun for a month makes a collyrium which is useful in defects of vision and loss of memory caused by vitiated doshas and demonic seizures. [681/2-1/2 69]

Siddharthakadi Agada

White mustard, vacha, hingu, karanja, devadaru, manjishtha, triphala, shveta, katabhi (bark), trikatu, priyangu, shirisha and two types of haridra – all taken in equal quantity are powdered with goat’s urine. This is an anti-poison formulation and used as intake, collyrium, snuff, paste, bath and anointing. It alleviates epilepsy, poisoning, unmada, magical spells, inauspiciousness and fever. It averts fear from the spirits and also protects in royal place.

Ghee cooked with these drugs along with cow’s urine serves the same therapeutic purpose. [691/2-1/2 73]

  • If there is excessive salivation and chronic coryza, the smoking cigar (medicated cigar) made of aromatic substances should be given for smoking. These fragrant and aromatic substances are described under the vairechanika dhuma (medicated smoking)[Cha.Sa.Sutra Sthana chapter 5] . [731/2-1/2 74]
  • Similarly, the patient should be given medicated cigar prepared from shweta along with hingu.
  • In the unmada caused by vata and kapha, sprinkling collyrium(anjana), blowing(pradhamana), snuffing(nasya) and smoking(fumigation) should be done with application of urine, bile, feces, skin, hairs, nails and hide of porcupine (shallaka), owl (uluka), cat (marjara), jackal (jambuka), wolf (vrika) and goat (basta). [741/2-1/2 76]

Sa.Chikitsa Sthana 7 ] and jivaniya ghrita [Cha. Sa.Chikitsa Sthana 29] and mishraka sneha[ Cha. Sa.Chikitsa Sthana 5] are efficacious. Moreover, the patient should be given cold, sweet and soft food and drinks or the physician should perform blood-letting vein situated at the joining place of temple and the end of hair line in unmada, irregular fever and epilepsy. [76-77]

The patients should be assured by a friend and consoled with religious, moral statements and purposeful words. They should tell him the loss of some extremely favorite person or thing or show him some astonishing and surprising things(to subside the episode of insanity). [79]

After massaging with mustard oil, the patient should be tied (with ropes) and lay prostrate in the sun, or should touch him with bristles of kapikacchu or heated iron rods or burnt with hot oil or water. [80]

Having tied him well, he should be beaten with whips (hunter) and put him in a confined to a lonely room. Thus his perturbed mind gets pacified. [81]

He should be terrorized by biting of snakes with their fangs removed or by well-trained lions or elephants, or armed criminals or enemies. [82]

Alternatively, he should be terrorized by royal personnel (police) having taken him out side well-tied, arrested and terrorize him intimidating to kill (execution) by the order of king. [83]

The danger to the life is above that of the fear of injury to the body. Therefore, the perverted mind of the patient as such gets distracted from all directions and gets pacification and regains normalcy through the above mentioned measures. [84]

If the mental derangement is due to the loss of some dearly loved object, he should be pacified by consoling and assuring him by providing a similar thing. Simultaneously, he should be consoled by pleasant assurances (by family members and friends) as a result of which he recovers from illness.

If the mental derangement is due to the passion (kama), grief (shoka), fear (bhaya), anger (krodha), exhilaration (harsha), envy (irshya), and greed (lobha), they should be pacified by their mutually antagonizing and contradictory factors . [85-86]

Physician should administer the treatment of unmada, caused by spirits or dosha, after examining place, age, suitability, morbidity, time and strength or otherwise. [87]

In the unmada caused by gods, sages, forefather or gandharvas, the wise physician should avoid irritant collyrium etc. and other harsh measures. Instead he should use intake of ghee and other mild medicament. Moreover, worship, offering (bali), gifts (upahara), recitation of hymns(mantra), collyrium (anjana), pacificatory rituals (shanti karma) and acts, sacrifices, offering oblation to the fire (homa), repetition of hymns/incantations(japa), auspicious rituals /blessings (swastyayana), vedic rites and expiations (prayaschita) are useful for these patients . [88-90]

If one worships Lord Shiva daily, the supreme controller of all bhutas (supernatural beings) and lord of the world with sincerity and the all powerful gods with devotion, he overcomes the fear from attack of unmada.[91]

Pramathas, attendants of Lord Rudra, move around the world, if worshipped, they help in recovery from unmada. [92]

The exogenous unmada is pacified by offerings (bali), auspicious acts (mangal karma), oblation (homa), wearing herbs roots ( aushadhi-dharana), anti poison drugs (agada-dharana), good conduct (satya-achara), austerity (tapa), knowledge (jnana), gifts (pradana), spiritual duties (niyama), vows (vrata); worship of god, cows, brahmanas and preceptors (guru), by sacred hymns and drugs. [93-94]

Because of similarity in etiology and substratum of morbidity, the remedial measures prescribed for epilepsy (pasmara) should also be adopted for unmada. [95]

The person having preponderance of sattva (strong mental strength), abstaining from meat and wine, taking wholesome diet, sincere and disciplined and observing purity of mind and body is not affected by either endogenous or exogenous type of unmada. [96]

Now summing, up verses-

(Punarvasu) the best of physician told about the etiology, symptoms and treatment of the types of unmada caused by endogenous or exogenous factors. [98]

Thus, ends ninth chapter on the treatment of unmada in Chikitsa Sthana in the treatise composed by Agnivesha, redacted by Charak and reconstructed by Dridhbala as it was unavailable.[9]

Tattva Vimarsha (Fundamental Principles)

  • The diet poor in qualities, behavioral abnormalities, frequent psychological trauma mainly due to fear or exhilaration and irregular postures play important role in causing unmada.
  • The individual with low mental strength (level of sattva guna as in weak minded people) are more susceptible for unmada.
  • Hridaya (seat of mind) also holds the site of intellectual functions and it is vitiated in patho-physiology of unmada.
  • Unmada involves excessive affliction of intellect, mind and memory. This may be due to either endogenous causes or exogenous causes.
  • The endogenous causes include vitiation of dosha resulting in variety of unmada with their dominance. Sharira dosha can afflict the psyche, intellect and memory to cause a psycho-somatic disorder.
  • External social, psychological and spiritual factors can also lead to exogenous unmada in similar way.
  • Diagnosis of exogenous unmada is based upon the behavior pattern of afflicted person. The treatment includes assessment of intention of the spirits in terms of pleasure and worship. It should be ascertained as such by the liking (intentions) and behavior (conduct) of the patients and should be treated with administration of the mantras (incantations/hymns) and drugs mixed with the respective gifts and offerings. This is immaterialistic treatment.
  • Various purification procedures are administered as per the dosha dominance, strength of the patient.
  • In order to prevent from getting afflicted by unmada, the person shall have preponderance of sattva (strong mental strength), abstaining from meat and wine, taking wholesome diet, sincere and disciplined and observing purity of mind and body.
  • The objective of cure in unmada includes blissful feeling (in perception) of sense objects and also of intellect, self and mind along with normalcy of tissue elements (dhatus) are the signs of having recovered from unmada.

Vidhi Vimarsha (Applied Inferences )

Similar conditions observed in contemporary psychiatry

Nija unmada (endogenous psychoses)

  1. Vata dominant unmada is similar to excited catatonic type of schizophrenia and is acute form of schizophrenia. These patients present with the symptoms of catatonic excitement with general symptoms of unmada. It is produced due to vitiation of vata along with rajas and tamas doshas. Due to excess of rajas and vata, catatonic excitement occurs.
  2. The pitta dominant unmada is similar to maniac psychosis. The patients and mania, show a generalised functional overactivity or increased psychomotor activity, excitability of mood, constant movement, increased talkativeness, aggressive behavior, irritability as the prominent symptoms.
  3. The Features of kaphaja unmada resemble closely with stuporous catatonic schizophrenia and major depressive disorder and thus they can be correlated.
  4. There are clinical conditions in which alternating phases of depression and mania, known as bipolar disorders or maniac depressive psychosis. Similarly, there are forms of schizophrenia, in which excited catatonia and stuporous catatonia are alternatively present (periodic catatonia). These conditions, based upon particular doshic combination in the pathogenesis, as indicated by kapha is aggravated along with pitta.
  5. All types of chronic, incapacitating psychotic conditions are included under the category of sannipatika / tridoshaja unmada. Hebephrenic schizophrenia, chronic schizophrenia and residual schizophrenia come under this category, again the difference being predominance of the doshas involved in the psychopathogenesis.

Agantuja unmada (exogenous psychoses)

  1. Various psychoses due to possession of grahas and bhutas (supernatural beings) are included under agantuja unmada, which should be regarded as suffering from paranoid schizophrenia, paranoia and various other paranoid states. Paranoid schizophrenia is characterized by predominance of delusions.
  2. It is important to mention that grahas have been christened only on the basis of the resemblance of the clinical features of the afflicted individual with the activities of those grahas e.g. gods, gandharvas etc. It is not that these have entered into the the body of the afflicted individual. This is just the way of presentation and the writing style in Ayurveda to personify an event/process. This form of presentation is somewhat similar to syndromic classification in conventional modern medicine. Because of similarity of clinical symptoms, the patients are said to be suffering from some graha. These individual syndromes can also be correlated to a single disease entity from modern perspective.

Management of unmada

Yuktivyapashraya Chikitsa (rational treatment)

The purification procedures prescribed in unmada are :(1) Nasya (2) Vamana (3) Virechana (4) Niruha basti (5) Anuvasana basti. Besides these five chief karmas, two other preparatory and axillary karmas are indicated i.e. snehana karma and swedana karmas. Snehana karmas are also carried out as shamana (pacification) therapy with low dose sneha. Especially in major psychiatric illness it is considered as a separate therapy. The other measures like pradeha, utsadana, abhyanga, dhuma, snehapana, etc. are also administered which stimulates the mind, intellect, memory and consciousness of the patient.

Siravedha (venesection): Besides the above methods, surgical techniques like siravedha (venesection) are also advocated in the treatment of mental disorders and hysteria.

In vataja unmada, snehapana has to be done. If the passage of vayu is obstructed laxative along with sneha should be given. In kaphaja unmada, vamana must be done. In pittaja unmada, virechana must be done. After completing purification, samsarjana karma (lighter to heavier diet gradually) must be given. The purification of body also leads to blissful state of mind and sense organs.

Even after the body is cleansed, if the patient exhibits perversion of conduct, he should be given strong navanam, anjanam, taadanam.

Concept and rationale of ghrita-pana/ shamana sneha pana

Snehapana is specially indicated in unmada. Shamana sneha includes the measures that bring down the increased doshas to normal stage without expelling them out and without disturbing balance of other normal doshas. The properties like sukshma, snigdha, picchila and manda operate pharmacologically to pacify unmada.

Recommended therapies for dosha dominant unmada

Pathya Apathya (Dietary Indications and contraindications)

Pathya

It is said that he who suffers from unmada should maintain cleanliness and consume food and drink, that are relishing and easily digestible, the following articles have been recommended in unmada:

  1. Shakavarga (Vegetables)- Patola, brahmi, kakamachi vastuka, tanduliyaka, kushmanda.
  2. Dhanyavarga (cereals/pulses):- Rakta shali, godhuma, mudga
  3. Phala varga :- Draksha, panasa, matulunga, narikela, kapittha
  4. Mamsavarga:- kurmamsa (tortoise meat)
  5. Gorasvarga - Kshira, navnita (butter) ghrita (ghee)
  6. Paniyavarga - drink/beverages gangambu (rain water) madya (alcohol) rasala (Sugar cane) Kulmasatarpana (gruel of kulmasa)

Satvavajaya

The methods of yuktivyapasraya treatment have been prescribed in the treatment of mental diseases. But in the derailment of manasika doshas, it is essential that the line of treatment of mental diseases should be specific and based on the theory of balancing the mental doshas (rajas and tamas). Taking into consideration all these factors, most probably in Ayurveda a separate classification of satvavajaya treatment has been specially mentioned. Charak defines it as a mind control therapy in which stress will be laid on restraining the mind from unwholesome arthas (objects). Certain techniques have been mentioned for this therapy.

The inclusion of satvavajaya chikitsa, within these primary classifications of treatment of diseases, clearly indicates that this therapy of mano-nigraha was adopted in those days as a practical therapy to over come the psychological and psychosomatic diseases. While describing the principles of treatment, Charak prescribes the following methods of treatment for mental diseases:

  1. Jnana (knowledge of spiritual scriptures)
  2. Vijnana (scientific knowledge)
  3. Dhairya (sustaining courage in adverse conditions)
  4. Smrti (good memories)
  5. Samadhi (meditation and contemplation).

In another reference, Charak prescribes the following treatment for the mental diseases, which resembles the above lines of treatment:

  1. Trivarga anveshana: Contemplation of the three objectives of life- dharma, artha, and kama
  2. Tadvidyaseva : Service of those who are well versed in the treatment of mental diseases.
  3. Atmajnana : Self-realization.
  4. Kula-kala, desha, bala jnana: The knowledge about ones own self, country, family, age, vitality and ability.

Summary

Manovahasrotas can be understood as the channels conducting various factors that regulate behavior. Vitiation of these srotas at different levels produce abnormal behavioral patterns thereby bringing about the psychological & behavioural symptoms of unmada vis-à-vis psychosis. A number of formulations, treatment modalities, procedures and therapeutic techniques have been described with predominance of lipid predominant dosage forms esp. ghritas & tailas, which seems to be so formulated as to exert maximum effect on neural tissue by increasing bio-availability of formulation by increased ability to cross blood –brain barrier. All the preventive measures mentioned by Acaryas are aimed at bestowing relaxation and mental balance, which are the basic prerequisites of a sound mind. It may be mentioned here that sharira shuddhi is needed before attaining manasika shuddhi. The nourishing medhya medications described are particularly relevant to our times when we are forced to battle continuously against stress and strain. Need of the hour is to find practically useful formulations and treatment procedures, scrutinize them thoroughly, which would help to effectively treat the psychotic states. It may not be exaggartion to say that unmada is the only disease entity in the entire classical Ayurvedic literature where such a comprehensive management has been described and almost all the prevailing methods & forms of therapy have been used hand in hand.
