Source: archive.org: Vagbhata’s Ashtanga Hridaya Samhita (first 5 chapters)Saṅghaguhya (सङ्घगुह्य) is the father of Vāgbhaṭa: the author of three voluminous works in the medical literature of the Hindus.—According to the colophon of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā:—“Of the work Aṣṭāṅgahṛdaya by the great physician named Vāgbhaṭa, a son of the master of physicians named Saṅghaguhya, (this) is the sixth (section), being the Uttarasthāna. The medical research-work entitled Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā is (herewith) entirely finished. By India’s Professor Jārandhara and Revising Great Translator
Monk Rin-chen-bzaṅ-po (Ratnabhadra, as his name would be in Sanskrit) it has been [translated], revised, and edited”.
Note: Saṅghaguhya is the exact re-translation of the Tibetan name. In the Sanskrit colophons of Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā I, II, III & VI and As. I & VI, however, Vāgbhaṭa’s father is called Siṃhagupta, which would be Seṅ-ge-sbas-pa in Tibetan. Interestingly enough, Aufbecht (Cat. Bodl. viii p. 303 a) records Saṃghagupta as the principal spelling of his MSS no 741—42.
Āyurveda (आयुर्वेद, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of Āyurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
