Loka Purusha Samya siddhanta is considered as one the principles of Ayurveda based on which the functioning of human beings, diseases and their management is understood. The core idea of this theory is that the human being is the miniature reflection of the universe. What lies in humans is a representation of something similar present in the universe. In other words, Purusha (human) epitomizes the Loka (Universe). Therefore human should not be seen or studied in an isolated manner but in the context of harmony between man and the environment. There exists an interdependence between human and unsiverse and, association between them must be known in order to understand the imbalances and find the ways to reestablish the harmony. | Loka Purusha Samya siddhanta is considered as one the principles of Ayurveda based on which the functioning of human beings, diseases and their management is understood.
