Abstract
Ayurveda being the science of life found its base in Shatdarshanas (six orthodox systems of philosophy) for its fundamental aspects. These elementary aspects are very much needed for the applied aspect of Ayurveda. Yoga philosophy being one among the Shatdarshana also influenced Ayurveda in various ways. The Ashtanga Yoga (eight fold practice of Yoga) described in Yoga Sutra of Patanjali is its glimpse in Ayurveda in the form of Sadvrutta, Swasthavrutta, Achara Rasayana, Dinacharya, Dharaneeya Vega and so on.
