Abstract
Ashlesha nakshatra is one of the most essential nakshatra among all nakshatra. Among 27 nakshatra, Ashlesha
stands in 9th position. Ayurveda is the science of physical, psychological, and social well-being. In Ayurveda,
nakshatras are considered when determining auspicious times for health-related practices like medication and surgery. Especially in Raja Nighantu, the author correlated all the nakshatra with a particular medicinal plant. As
mentioned, Naga keshara vriksha represents the Ashlesha nakshatra.
