Herbal medicines facing issues including lack of authentication, non-availability, inadequate standardization methodologies and regulatory insufficiency. It is required to overcome these issues related to the standardization of herbal medicines. Similar consideration must be adopted for Herbo mineral preparations which mainly come under the umbrella of Rasa Shastra in Ayurveda. Ayurveda described particulars techniques for quality evaluation of Rasa Dravya’s. Additionally modern research suggested organoleptic tests and heavy metal analysis along with sophisticated techniques like High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) , XRD, XRF etc. Vataka, vatika, gutika,modaka, pindi, guda and vati are the synonyms of Vati. All the terminologies used above are used as synonyms for vataka in different parts of classics. Difference may prevail in the shape or size of the above said preparations but the basic method of preparation remains same. No previous study of standardization of Vataka is available till now. Hence standardization of vataka is necessary in present era. Out of available sangraha Yogartnakara is one of the best creation in kayachikitsa subject. All well-known treatment is compiled in this sangrah. Diagnosis of diseases in practically well explained other than another granthas. Language of this sangrah is easy to understand. Thus if whoever study this grantha thoroughly then he/she can be a good practitioner. So, we thought it will be interesting and useful to study standardization of Mandurvajravataka.
