Finding Sources

I have now gone through the complete library catalog (all ~125 books). There is no book called "Sarthak" in this medical textbook library, and the term "nidra" does not appear in any of the available texts either.

Here is a full summary of what I found:

Result

The book "Sarthak" is not available in this medical textbook library. The library contains approximately 125 medical/clinical textbooks (standard Western medical references like Gray's Anatomy, Guyton, Harrison's, Robbins, etc.) plus a few specialized resources (CA taxation, ACCA, demo orthopaedic videos).

A search for the term "nidra" across all paragraphs and headings in the entire library also returned no results.

What "Sarthak" likely refers to:

Sarthak is likely an Ayurveda textbook used in Indian Ayurvedic medical education (BAMS/MD Ayurveda curriculum). It covers topics like Nidra (sleep) as one of the three pillars of life (Trayopasthambha - Ahara, Nidra, Brahmacharya) per classical texts like Ashtanga Hridayam or Charaka Samhita.
This book is not part of the current library database, so I cannot retrieve references from it.

What I can tell you about Nidra from Ayurvedic knowledge:

Nidra (sleep) is described in texts like Charaka Samhita (Sutrasthana Ch. 21) and Ashtanga Hridayam (Sutrasthana Ch. 7)
It is classified as one of the Trayopasthambhas (three supporting pillars of life)
Types include Tamobhava (caused by tamas), Shleeshmasamudbhava (caused by kapha), Manovyapara-shanta (when mind activity ceases), etc.
Proper nidra maintains health; improper nidra causes sukha (happiness) or dukha (misery)

If you have the Sarthak book as a PDF or document, you can upload it here and I will extract all references to nidra from it directly. Alternatively, if you can clarify the full title or author of the "Sarthak" book, I can search for it more specifically.
