ORIGIN OF AYURVEDA
ब्रह्मा स्मृत्वा आयुषो वेदं प्रजापतिमजिग्रहेत्सो अश्विनौ तौ सहस्राक्षं सो अत्रिपुत्रादिकान्मुनीन्ते अग्निवेशादिकांस्ते टु पृथक् तन्त्राणि तेनिरे

3. they taught it to Sahasraksa (Lord Indra),
4. he taught it to Atri’s son (Atreya Punarvasu) and other sages,
5. they taught it to Agnivesa and others and they (agnivesa and other disciples ) composed treatises, each one separately.
FUNDA OF ASHTANGA HRUDAYAM:
तेभ्यो अतिविप्रकीर्ण्यभ्यः प्रायः सारतरोच्चयःक्रियते अष्टाङ्गहृदयं नातिसंक्षेपविस्तरम्
· From those Ayurvedic text books, which are too elaborate and hence very difficult to study, only the esence is collected and presented in Ashtanga Hridaya, which is neither too short nor too elaborate.
