Prakriti 

When the gametes fuse together inside the uterus, the doṣa that is predominant (in the body & environment at that moment of the union) will influence the zygote, forming the main constitution (Prakṛti) of the human born. This core prakriti never changes. Even if there are vitiations in the body, the inherent nature remains intact.  

The predominant types of Prakriti are (When you have more than one dosha, the first dosha mentioned is your most predominant dosha): 

​

Vata

Vata-Pitta

Vata-Kapha

Pitta

Pitta-Vata

Pitta-Kapha

Kapha

Kapha-Vata

Kapha-Pitta

Vata-Pitta-Kapha (In equal proportions)

​

In the explanation for different types of prakriti, you will find answers to questions you would not have realised you had. Understanding the innate constitution of the body provides knowledge regarding the unique dos and don’ts for each individual.

​

The current state of the doshas in your body is known as Vikriti.

The same tool can be used to analyse your Vikriti based on how you feel at the moment. 

When both the results for Prakriti and Vikriti are similar, you are healthy!
