There is a ten-fold examination of individuals for a better assessment of the Bala of the individual. Determination of the strength (Bala), Sara Pariksha is described as third place. Sara is the supreme quality or the result of properly nourished Dhatu (tissue quality). Acharya Chakrapani has described Sara as “Vishudhataro Dhatu” or “Utkarsha Dhatu,” which means the essence of all Dhatu. Every particular Sara is characterized by both physical as well as psychological parameters. The seven types of Sara provided the person Balamana (strength), Ayu (life span), and Saubhagya (good fortune). The 100 Majja Sara individuals were selected for the study. For the assessment of Majja Sarata following characteristics were assessed- Mridvanga, Balwantah, Snigdha Swara, Gambhir Swara, Sthuladirgha Santhi, Vritta Sandhi, Shruta. The subjective and (objective Harvard step test) parameters of Majja Sara were adopted using the 0, 1, 2, 3 scoring system. Based on objective criteria, the objective tests (complete blood count, bone mineral density, Harvard step test, and measurements) were performed to develop the objective parameters.
