Dravya Guna Poster: Rasa, Guna, Virya, Vipaka & Prabhava

Dravyaguna — the Ayurvedic science of substance properties — is the intellectual heart of Ayurvedic pharmacology and dietary therapy. This comprehensive Dravya Guna chart poster maps the five elements and their associated qualities across the classical Ayurvedic framework of Rasa (taste), Guna (quality), Virya (potency), Vipaka (post-digestive effect), and Prabhava (special action), giving practitioners and students a single, at-a-glance reference for understanding how every food, herb, and substance affects the body and mind. What the chart covers: The poster presents the full Dravyaguna property framework in a logical, easy-to-navigate layout. It shows all six tastes (Shad Rasa) and their elemental compositions, the twenty qualities (Gurvadi Gunas) arranged in their ten opposing pairs, the relationship between Virya (heating or cooling potency) and doshic effect, Vipaka outcomes for each taste category, and explanatory notes on Prabhava and how it overrides the expected action of a substance. The five elements are woven throughout as the organising principle.
