The book has been titled ‘Sharir Subhashit’ because the term Sharir means ‘human anatomy’ and ‘physiology’. Where as the word Subhashit means worth reciting or memorising. Therefore Shloka concerning Sharir like Ayu, Garbha, Asthi, Sandhi, Peshi, Dhamni, Sira and Marma may become easily recitable in Sanskrit and may also be retained in memory very easily along with their precise references by Scholars of Ayurveda. Author also feels that the classical compilation of vulnerable Sanskrit quotations of Sharir Rachna shall also help to throw light on new horizons for doing research in various topics of Sharir. Keeping all above aims and objects author is presenting this book in the hands of scholarly learners and teachers of ayurveda and expects that this documentation will prove very useful handy work.
