ConclusionConclusion

Pravritti refers to establishment of Sambandha with the shareera

and accomplishment of equilibrium of doshas and dhatus.

Pravartana of both Samanya and Vishesha takes place

simultaneously.

Pravritti of both takes place only in the absence of Virodhi or

Pratirodhaka bhavas.

The Concept of Vaishamya gamana is the Practical form of

Ubhaya Pravritti.

Hence commentaries provides a deeper insight &new outlook to

the concept and thus helps in better understanding and wise

application. 17
