Since the inception of Human race, mankind seeks for a healthy as well as a long life. Acharya Charaka defines utility of Ayurveda as to maintain good health in a healthy and to cure ill health in the diseased and ways to achieve these are also elaborated. To understand the status of good health, concepts like Ojas, Vyadhikshamatva, Bala, satva are explained and they are mutually dependent. Ojas which is said to be the essence of all seven Dhatu, when it is normal forms the balavan shareera. Bala in turn provides vyadhikshamatva, which is the ability of an individual to fight against diseases and to prevent it. Due to intake of Nidana or by any Vyadhi, Ojodushti may happen primarily or secondarily, thus leading to various kinds of disorders as well as inability of the body to defend itself from the diseases. This article is an effort to understand the physiological as well as pathological aspects of Ojas.

Ojas, Bala, Vyadhikshamatva, Ojo dushti.
