Dīpaniya (दीपनिय) is the Sanskrit name for a group of medicinal plants, classified as “promoting appetite and digestion”, and originally composed by Caraka in his Carakasaṃhitā sūtrasthāna IV. The name is derived from the word dīpa, translating to “light”. It is a technical term used throughout Āyurveda. Examples of plants pertaining to this category include Pippalī (Piper longum), Chavya (Piper chava), Śṛṅgavera (dry ginger), Marica (Piper nigrum), Ajāmodā (Apium involucrata) and Bhallātakī (Semacarpus anacardium). The collection of herbs named Dīpaniya is one of the fifty Mahākaṣāya.
