Acharya Charaka says that Ahara, Nidra and Bramhacharya are three upastambhas of life and play a key role in maintenance of the health and long-life span. Now a day’s, few of us are able to get the better sleep to function our best. When mind and indriyas get exhausted, they withdraw themselves from their objects and then individual sleeps. According to Acharya Charak, nidra is considered as Adhaarinaya vega. Acharya Charak also said that the assessment of smriti can be done by the recall ability. Memory is that faculty of the brain by which the data or information is encoded, stored, and then retrieved when needed. Happiness, misery, strength, weakness, nourishment, emaciation, sterility, virility, knowledge, ignorance, life and death, these all are dependent on proper or improper sleep.
