KEY WORDS - Praman sharir, Sarata, Majjasarapurusha sandhis, Janu sandhi, Anthropometry

Original particulars of Ayurved relates with Rachana Sharir (Anatomy). It gives information about the basic Rachana (Structure) of human body which is significant with respect to analysis and treatment. In Rachana Sharir the topic of Praman Sharir (magnitude of human body) is also fixed. In this subject matter, vital parameters of human body are explained by acharyas. In praman sharir, swa-angulipraman (Individual finger breadth measurement) is explained in Charak-Samhita Vimansthan, Sushrut-Sutrasthan and Ashtang-sangraha. In ayurved the notion of sarataparikshan is also mentioned. In this laxanas of Majjasara purusha are explained by various acharyas. Sara is nothing but most potent part interms of dhatu in that particular person. Sara means best, real, strong etc. In case of Majjasarapurusha, acharyas specially Charakacharya in Vimansthan 8th adhyaya and 108th sootra, have used the words sthool (big), deergha (long) and vritta (round) while explaining the sandhis (Joints) of majjasarapurusha. So, it is essential to realize these words in terms of proportions. So, the study of praman sharir and majjasarpurusha is needed to figure out and evaluate the hypothesis about the sandhis (Janu sandhi, knee joint) of majjasarapurusha using anguli praman and anthropometric measurements.
