Division of the Stomach in Ayurveda According to Ayurveda, the stomach (Amashaya) is divided into three parts based on its function and the principles of digestion. This classification helps in understanding how food is processed in the stomach and how different doshas influence digestion.
1. Ayurvedic Division of the Stomach A. Based on Tridosha (Three Doshas) Ayurveda divides the stomach into three parts corresponding to Vata, Pitta, and Kapha:
Upper One-Third – Kapha Region
Located at the upper portion of the stomach. Functions: Lubrication, protection, and softening of food. Related to Mucous Secretion & Initial Digestion. Food is moistened with saliva and gastric secretions. Middle One-Third – Pitta Region
Located in the middle of the stomach. Functions: Main digestion occurs here due to digestive enzymes and acids. Related to Hydrochloric Acid & Active Digestion. Governs breakdown and absorption of nutrients. Lower One-Third – Vata Region
Located in the lower part of the stomach and small intestine. Functions: Movement of food downward towards the intestines. Related to Peristalsis & Waste Formation. Absorption and elimination processes begin here. 2. Division of Stomach Based on Food Intake (Agnimandala Concept) Ayurveda also classifies the stomach based on how much food should be filled for optimal digestion:
1/3rd of the stomach should be filled with solid food (Anna). 1/3rd should be filled with liquids (Dravya) like water, juice, or broth. 1/3rd should be left empty for the movement of Vata (air) to aid digestion. This principle ensures proper digestion, absorption, and prevention of indigestion.
3. Modern Correlation with Ayurveda The Ayurvedic division of the stomach aligns with modern physiology:
The Kapha region corresponds to the fundus, where food is stored. The Pitta region corresponds to the body of the stomach, where acid and enzymes break down food. The Vata region corresponds to the pyloric part, where food moves into the intestines.
Indigestion is the base of all physical diseases, the condition from which all other disease conditions arise. In a sense indigestion, the inability of an individual to digest any physical, mental or emotional input, is the sole disease of living beings. It usually begins in the mind as a “offense against wisdom,” and is projected from the mind into the physical body.
All disease results from a combination of physical, mental and spiritual causes.
Patients who suffer from both a mental and a physical disease, such as worse whenever the mental disorder goes into remission.
Good physical digestion is associated with these signs:
1. You feel no discomfort after ingesting your desired quantity of food.
2. After eating you do not burp gas which has the same odor and taste as the food you ate.
3. Your stomach does not feel full for an unusual length of time after your meal.
4. No symptoms are produced as the food passes through your small intestine and colon; you should not even be aware of this stage of digestion.
5. You excrete your feces at your habitual time. It must be of the proper consistency and should have no blood, mucus or undigested food in it, nor should it be offensive in odor.
6. After digestion your physical desire for food returns at the usual hour. (A mental desire for gratification of the tongue does not count.)
If any of the above is lacking, physical indigestion is present.
Good mental digestion is associated with these signs:
1. You feel no mental discomfort after ingesting your desired quantity of sense objects.
2. Your mind does not feel full and jaded afterwards, nor does it “burp up” any reactions to what you experienced.
3. No untoward emotions are produced while you are processing this new information.
4. You are able to effortlessly and accurately retrieve your experience from memory and communicate it on demand.
5. Your sleep after indulgence is sound and enjoyable, and free of disturbing dreams (which are indicative of mental ama).
6. Desire for further sensory gratification arises after an appropriate period of time.
If any of the above is lacking, mental indigestion is present.
Physical indigestion can cause mental indigestion, and vice versa, but most often the two exist together. Since the body is much easier to control than the mind Ayurveda teaches that it is best to purify and balance the body first, to whatever extent possible, before turning to address the mind. A harmonized body exerts a harmonizing effect on the mind.
