=== Introduction ===
''Mahat'' and ''artha'' are two synonyms that indicate ''hridaya'' (heart), used in this context exclusively in the literature related to medical science and not elsewhere. After the description of ''hridaya'' and the ten great vessels that originate there and elaborating further on ''ojas, shira, dhamani, strotas,'' etc., it further describes ''Ayu'' and the difference between happy, unhappy, beneficial, and non-beneficial kinds of life. These were briefly mentioned in the first chapter, but here these have been elaborated. The estimation of the lifespan of an individual when unexpected signs and symptoms appear and the role of self-realization and nonviolence in enhancing the longevity of life has been elaborated. Questions like ‘Why is Ayurveda eternal?’ have been taken up in this chapter. Since this is the last chapter of the [[Sutra Sthana]], it also provides an extensive ‘Table of Contents' of the entire text including an elaborate explanation of the sequence of chapters.
