Acharya ‘Dalhana’ , the commentator of Sushruta Samhita clearly indicates the term ‘Tantram’ as - “Tatri Dharane”
Here the meaning of the term ‘ Dharane’ suggests the protection of the body from the diseases.
So the text / treatise that keeps the protection of the body is called Tantra / Sastram / Chikitsa.
As it is quoted in –
“Trayate Shariramaneneti Tantram Shastram Chikitsa Cha” (Sus. Uttar. 65/2)
“Tantranam Vistaranam Iti ”
means that one can elaborate detail of a brief version by the help of Vyakhyana, thus it can called as Tantram. It also
gives protection to the body by different preservative ways of Medical science-like
Mitashi shyat (one should take diet in proper time),
Hitashi syat (one should take proper diet),
Kalabhoji syat (food can be taken in proper time),
Samasanadi na kartavyam (not to take over diet),
Prajnaparadhasya tyaga (not to indulge fructuous activities),
not to check the natural urges) etc. etc.
Thus the version “Tantranat Sharir Dharanadapi Tantram” is justified from the above points.
• “AGGREGATION OF SYSTEMATICALLY Though literally the words like Sakha, Sutra, Vidya,
ARRANGED SERIES OF SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS Jnana, Sastra, Laksana and Ayurveda, are different;
COVERING ALL ASPECTS OF CONCERNED but owing to Aptopadesha; all these words are Paryayas
SUBJECT (IN TOTALITY), IN A PRECISE, CONCISE of “Tantra”.
AND AUTHORITATIVE MANNER.”
Sivadasa Sena has commented 8that all these words by
their collective meaning explain the pattern of 'Tantra’ .
The Sastra ( Text) is also called ‘Tantra’ due to regulation/controlling activities/
rules.
One can protect / keep health of the healthy by indulging Ayurvedic rules &
advices, thus it can called as Tantra.
“ Niruktam Tantranattantram” (ch,su. 30/70)
The commentator Shivadas Sen of Charaka Samhita comments this quotation as
“Tantrenat-Vyutpadanat Tantram" meaning that which can be elaborated in
detailed & which protects the body is called as Tantra.
“तनोतत विऩुराथाान ् तत्ि भन्त्र सभन्न्त्ितान
राणं च कुरुते मस्भात ् तन्त्रमभतत अमबदीमते " sidhanta karikagama)
The texts which based on established principles in appropriate order with scientific
data & that protects the body is called Tantra.
“तन्त्रभ ् – इतये तय अमबसम्फद्धस्म अथासभूहस्म उऩदे श: शस्रभ ् ” (Nyaya sutra
vaschhayana bbasyam)
means that shastra (text) which unites the different subject matter in different
meaning for the good understanding is called Tantram.
Acharya ‘Dalhana’ , the terminology ‘Tantra’ is used for two meaning. Viz - Sastra &
Chikitsa.
The subject matter of tantra yukti is
(i) to make plan for preparing text or already existing planned text or
(ii)making plan for treatment or already existing plan for treatment.
Derivation of the term-‘Yukti’
मजु ् सभाधौ – मज्
ु मते इतत मन्ु तत:

“Yuj Dhatu + Ktin Pratyaya”
Yukti is otherwise called Yojana meaning planning. Planning of medicament for the Dosha
imbalancement. A planning of scientific & compound nature is called Yukti. It provides an
anticipatory plan for solving the practical difficulties and justifications of different portions,
generally thought to be irrelevant.

• The distinction between artha and vakya is important. Any
theory has two basic aspects, one dealing with entities it
accepts and other dealing with linguistic organization of
theoretical statements. One is dealing with ontological aspect
and other with presentation aspect.
