Ayurveda has a sound base of tri-principle. Upstambhas are described by Acharya Carak for the maintenance of health and life. The emphasis given on these factors in connection with positive health is highly relevant as it reflects the fundamental approach of Ayurveda to positive health and its totality with extended emphasis on mental health. These ahara, nidra and brahmacharya support the body for the maintenance of long and healthy life span. As a tripod is based on three wooden-pillars and maintain its position. In the modern era, nobody is following the theory of upstambha. That is why society is suffering from different types of diseases which may be minor or major. Importance of sleep in the maintenance of healthy and long life is well known. It is the recharging mechanism of cells, tissues, various systems of body as well as adhyatmic components like mana. Now-a-days sleep is affected badly due to disturbed working shifts and fast life-style. Along with other various disorders, sleep related diseases are also increasing day by day. This is because of regimen as prescribed in Ayurvedic classics are not followed properly. Consequently, homeostasis of the body is disturbed due to disturbance in circadian rhythm or biological clock. Result is production of various physical and mental disorders related to sleep. That is why, insomnias and parasomnias are widely distributed and increased day by day. We can avoid this situation, which is going worst, by following various regimens regarding sleep as mentioned in Ayurvedic classics.
