Abstract :

Ayurveda is an ancient science dealing with attaining health and curing diseases of ill. Good health makes our life happy. For that one has to take Wholesome of food which includes pure water also. We should always use the pure water to maintain health. Our Acharyas have mentioned regarding Hansodaka in Samhitas. Hansodaka is purified water in Sharad ritu by natural resources like Sunrays , Moonrays and an additional effects of Agasti star rays at night and kalprabhav of sharad ritu . Efforts were made to compare such Hansodaka and simple Tadagjal in view of microbiological properties, considering W.H.O. guidelines for drinking water. Hansodaka was found better than the simple tadagjal with respect to microbiological properties. It may be due to combine effect of sunrays , moonrays and Agasti star rays in sharad ritu. But Hansodaka is not suitable for drinking purpose as per W.H.O. guideline. it may be due to increased population, pollution ,industrialization in present era as compared to ancient era. Hence we can say water purification by other methods is must in present era.
