| Abstract: | In Ayurveda, Kāla or time is recognised as one of the fundamental Karana Dravyas—the essential causes that sustain existence and transformation in the universe. This review focuses on the applied understanding of Kāla and its influence on health, disease development, and treatment. Classical Ayurvedic works such as Charaka Samhita, Sushruta Samhita, and Ashtanga Hridaya describe Kāla as an eternal, continuous force that governs creation and decay while maintaining the balance of Tridosha—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Physiological functions like digestion (Avasthapaka), post-digestive transformation (Vipaka), and tissue metabolism (Dhatupaka) are regulated through temporal cycles. In medical practice, the timing of drug administration (Aushadha Sevana Kāla) and therapeutic procedures directly impacts treatment outcomes, a concept parallel to modern chronopharmacology. Preventive aspects such as Dinacharya (daily regimen) and Ritucharya (seasonal regimen) highlight the importance of living in harmony with natural rhythms. Furthermore, the six stages of disease evolution (Shatkriyakāla) emphasise timely intervention for effective management. The integration of temporal principles within Ayurveda offers valuable insight into personalised medicine and biological timing. Aligning lifestyle and therapies with Kāla enhances health, ensures preventive care, and demonstrates Ayurveda’s scientific understanding of natural rhythm. |
