I have now browsed the complete library catalog. Sartha Vagbhat (Sartha Vaghbhat) is not present in this medical textbook library. The library contains approximately 130 books covering modern western medicine specialities (surgery, cardiology, neurology, pharmacology, etc.) and a few special collections (Ayurveda/Navkar GST, demo1 orthopaedic videos), but no Ayurvedic classical texts.
Result
Sartha Vagbhat (also spelled Sartha Vaghbhat - "Sartha Vagbhata") is not available in this textbook library. The library's catalog has been fully searched and contains no Ayurvedic classical texts - no Sartha Vagbhat, no Ashtanga Hridayam, no Charaka Samhita, or any other Ayurvedic samhita.
What is Sartha Vagbhat?
For context: Sartha Vagbhat (सार्थ वाग्भट) is a Marathi-language annotated commentary on Vagbhata's Ashtanga Hridayam (or Ashtanga Sangraha), a foundational Ayurvedic text. The author of the widely used edition is Dr. Ganesh Krishna Garde (ISBN: 9789383721832). It covers all classical Ayurvedic topics including Nidra (sleep), one of the three Trayopasthambhas (pillars of life) - along with Ahara (diet) and Brahmacharya.
Key chapters where Nidra is discussed in Vagbhata's works:
- Sutrasthana, Chapter 7 - Nidra as a Trayopasthambha; types of nidra, causes, effects of excess/deficient sleep
- Sutrasthana, Chapter 4 (Dinacharya) - daily regimen including proper sleep
- Sutrasthana, Chapter 6 (Ritucharya) - seasonal sleep adjustments (e.g., daytime sleep permitted in summer)
- Nidanasthana - sleep disturbances in disease contexts
- Uttarasthana - sleep in context of psychiatric disorders
Where to access the actual text:
- A digitised version is available at the Internet Archive (archive.org)
- The e-Vagbhata portal (vedotpatti.in) has the Ashtanga Samgraha with searchable chapters
If you have a PDF or digital copy of the book you would like me to extract nidra references from, please upload it and I can search through it directly.
