“…Newer techniques involving the internet, electronic journals, educational videos need to be incorporated in the teaching methodologies of Agadatantra to make it easier to gain full of knowledge on the subject, irrespective of the availability of proper means in individual institutions. The focus should also be on the exposure of ample clinical/practical aspects of the subject to the students for their benefit [ 14 ].…”

Background Agadatantra is one of the eight clinical branches into which Ayurveda medicine is traditionally divided. The term Agadatantra is used specifically for the branch of Ayurvedic medicine dealing with poisons, its description, and its antidotes. The other parts of the subject include Vyavahar Ayurveda and V idhi Vaidyaka which are comprehensible with forensic medicine and medical jurisprudence of modern medical sciences. Being one of the important subjects during the undergraduate studies of Ayurveda (BAMS), it holds a substantial position in the entire syllabus. The present study was designed to appraise the attitude and knowledge of Ayurveda graduates on the practical application of the subject in day to day professional life. Materials and methods It was a cross-sectional study conducted online among the students, teachers, and practitioners of Ayurveda. A pre-validated survey questionnaire was uploaded on GoogleDocs. The sharable link was made available online from 12 th November 2018 to 31st Jan 2020 for recording the responses of the volunteers. Analysis of the responses was conducted thereafter. Results A total of 2128 participants expressed their opinion through this online survey which evaluated the views of scholars of Ayurveda regarding Agadatantra and contemporary allied subjects. Most of the respondents 65.27% were male and 30.83% holding BAMS as their highest qualification, 34.02% were postgraduate (MD) in Agadatantra ; 55.03% (n = 1171) were academicians and 63.06% participants had an opinion that current UG& PG teaching is not sufficient to know about medico-legal responsibilities. Conclusion The survey shows that there are few downsides in the existing teaching methodologies of Agadatantra . The existing syllabus should be revised entirely considering it as one of the clinical subjects. Concrete practical based teaching with ample clinical exposure is the need of the hour in the subject of Agadatantra to enhance its practical applicability.

Ayurveda is a unique system of healthcare with more than 5000 years of history. It is presumed that Ayurveda is one of the oldest scientific ways of keeping, promoting, and conserving a healthy life. The various natural ingredients that are used in Ayurvedic therapy are of great medical value as is described in the Vedic literature on Ayurveda. The Ayurveda's history laid down the instructions of maintaining healthy lifespan as well as fighting against illness by different types of therapies like massages, diet control, herbal medicines, and exercises. Nowadays, green marketing is a rapidly growing concept, and consumers are willing to pay more for green products. Green marketing affects all areas of the economy. It does protect not only the environment but also creates a new market and job opportunities. The study is focused on the concept of Ayurveda especially in the resorts of Kerala. The majority of consumers have felt that their actions had a proportional impact on the environment.

In Sanskrit, the word ‘Ayurveda’ means ‘The Science of Life.’ The knowledge of Ayurveda originated in India over a period of more than 5000 years. It is also called as “mother of all the healing.” It is based on the belief that the wellness of a human body depends on a proper balance between three aspects like mind, body, and spirit. Several drugs and health products have been produced since ancient times. The present study is focused on assessing the performance of Dabur India Company through the profitability ratio, identifying the variations in various profitability components, and understanding the CSR activities initiated by Dabur India Ltd and how the CSR activities will help the organisation to increase the sales which will help to increase the profit.
