ABSTRACT
Background: In present time, looking young is something which is needed by everyone. The beauty
standards have been definitely increased which certainly only amount to external beauty. The market of the
cosmetic industry has grown a lot in the past year because of the increased consumer which is definitely not
gender oriented. Aim: To demonstrate the role of ayurveda with special reference to ageing. Objective: To
study the importance of Dincharya, Ritucharya & Ratricharya. Material & methods: The material will be
collected from the Bruhatrayee & Laghutrayeesamhita. And any scientific studies related with above will be
obtained from the google scholar, pubmed or any other online source. Discussion: Acharya has mentioned
the importance of Dincharya, Ritucharya in the Samhitas. There is a specific criterion which is to be followed
in accordance to Dincharya, Ritucharya & Ratricharya because of the distribution of Tridoshas accordingly.
Conclusion: Looking young with great skin even at old age doesn’t define being young. People need to change
their perspective on how they look at ageing. And that’s where the regime of ayurveda can help in ageing
gracefully the one where everyone is disease free physically, mentally & emotionally and cover all the aspect
of being ‘Swastha’. Only healthy eating doesn’t define our health. There are other factors described well in
the ayurveda to create a balance in Dosha. Dincharya, Ratricharya & Ritucharya play an important role in
maintaining Swasthya by controlling the external factors which are equally important for internal dosha
balance & thus longevity in long run.

Key words: Ageing, Ayurveda, Dincharya, Ritucharya
