In Hinduism
Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: Research Gate: On Fish in Manasollasa (c. 1131 AD)Naḍaka (नडक) or Nalaka refers to a type of fish identified with Barbus curmuca Ham., as mentioned in the 12th-century Mānasollāsa or Abhilaṣitārthachintāmaṇi, an ancient Sanskrit text describing thirty-five kinds of marine and fresh water fishes.—The word nadaka (or nalaka) in Sanskrit suggested a tubular shape or a reed-like appearance. It is an inland, scaly, and large fish. Hora (1951) has identified this fish as Barbus curmuca Ham., a barb, which is common in waters of Western Ghats. We agree with Hora’s identification.
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.
