- <p><span lang="EN-IN">Among the five principal <em>Shodhana Karmas</em>, <em>Virechana</em> occupies a central role for the purification of <em>Pitta Dosha,</em> especially when located in the <em>Adhobhaga </em>of the body. Yet, in the <em>Chikitsa Sthana</em> of <em>Charaka Samhita,</em> <em>Charaka </em>depicts a remarkable diversity in the indication, intensity, and formulation of <em>Virechana,</em> transcending the boundaries of Pitta disorders. He recommends <em>Virechana</em> even in <em>Vata, Kapha</em>, and <em>Sannipataja </em>conditions, wherever <em>Pitta </em>or <em>Aashaya Dushti</em> acts as a co-factor. This paper offers a detailed textual and conceptual review of the multiplicity of <em>Virechana Yogas</em> mentioned across various disease chapters of <em>Charaka Chikitsa Sthana</em>. The objective is to understand the rationale behind different intensities (<em>Mridu, Madhyama, and Teekshna</em>), forms (<em>Ghrita, Taila, Churna, Kwatha</em>), and <em>Anupanas</em> used, while identifying assessment factors such as <em>Bala, Koshtha, Dosha, Vyadhi Bala,</em> and <em>Avastha.</em> The study highlights <em>Charaka’s </em>rational, individualized, and adaptable therapeutic reasoning, establishing his approach as timelessly scientific and clinically relevant.</span></p>
