Significance of Nakul and Sahdev in ‘Mahabharata’
Nakula and Sahadeva are referred as Asvineya, as the two physicicans of gods. Both the brothers were incarnations of Ashwini Kumaras, and possessed special set of skills.
Nakula:
Nakul was a great exponent of horselore (ashwa -vidya), whose treatise on cattle-breeding etc termed as “Ashwa chikitsa” is also available still there. He was able to diagnose disease of horse by examining colour of urine. Twin brother of Nakul, named as Sahdev was also expert in animal husbandry. He had a skill to diagnose the disease on the basis of urine of sick bull. Both of them learnt these skills from his guru (teacher) called as Dronacharya. There are so many monographs on elephant-lore are also available. The animals like horses and elephants were the chief constituents of military of kings. Gurus (teachers) prepare their students in several sciences. If we talk about “Mahabharata” Dronacharya he made his pupils in different fields as Yudhishthir in administration, Bhim in gada,Arjuna in archery, Nakul in horse cure and Sahdev in animal husbandry. In modern time veterinary science has an important place as separate branch in medical science.
Sahadeva:
Sahadeva was the most intelligent among his brothers. In fact, Yudhisthir refers to him as being intelligent as Brihaspati-the divine teacher of gods. He was also a master in medicine, equastrian skills, bovine veterinary, politics and humanities. He was King Yudhishthira’s private counsellor.
In ancient India, due to religious and emotional value, use of animals in agriculture, transportation, food and on the battle fields, the need for animal welfare was well recognized. Ayurveda describes many treatises like Gau-ayurveda (cows), Hastyayurveda (elephants), Ashvayurveda (horses), Mrig-Ayurveda (animal), Vriksha-ayurveda (plants) etc. It is known that the two Pandavas, Nakul and Sahdev were experts in veterinary medicine who mastered the use of plants for animal welfare. The vast knowledge has been documented in Nakul Samhita. Unfortunately, most of these rare books have not been preserved adequately. A majority of them are either not available at all or have been out of print for several decades. There is an urgent need to conserve the rich Indian tradition of veterinary health care described in the ancient Ayurvedic sciences.
The first mention about the use of herbs for treatment of animals is found in the book “Nakul Samhita”, which describes how during the Mahabharat War (1000 – 900 BC) the Pandava Princes Nakul and Sahdev used to treat thousands of wounded animals everyday with herbs. Based on the principles of ancient ayurveda, further scientific researches were done on herbs in India to develop products on modern scientific lines, involving pharmacological and toxicological studies, clinical evaluations in experimentally induced conditions, controlled clinical trials and trials in comparison to the known traditional chemical products. All these studies were done on the parameters applied for development of any modern medicine. This has now evolved as Modern Veterinary Ayurveda. Vaccines are inevitable for disease prevention and antibiotics are necessary for control of infectious diseases, while Veterinary Ayurveda has a special role to play in nutrition, enhancement of productivity and for prevention and treatment of metabolic disorders. They also have important role as growth promoters and productivity enhancers, without resorting to antibiotics and other synthetic chemicals, which may cause residual toxicity, resistance and other problems. They have unique advantage of being used as cleansing agent and uterine tonic after parturition in a safe and effective manner, as well as for timely re-breeding of the animals with ovulatory oestrus in a prophylactic way, without resorting to the use of hormonal preparations. Therefore, the integration of Veterinary Ayurveda with traditional Allopathic system of medicine is complementary to each other and a way forward for sustainable livestock production. While allopathic system uses synthetic chemicals to provide symptomatic treatment, Veterinary Ayurveda provides comprehensive approach by using herbs tackling the root cause besides the symptoms. The use of medicinal plants and Phytoingredients in the treatment of ailments as well as for increasing the productivity of livestock and poultry has generated renewed interest in recent times, as herbal preparations are increasingly being used in Livestock healthcare practices.
