Which is considered the basic unit of the human body in Siddha system?

• A. Varmam
• B. Udal Thathukkal
• C. Uyir Thathukkal
• D. Siddhars

Hint:

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Siddha system divides the human body into physical and vital components.
Step 2: Udal Thathukkal (Seven physical constituents) are Saaram, Senneer, Oon, Kozhuppu, Enbu, Moolai, and Sukkilam/Suronitham.
Step 3: These are considered the structural and functional basis of the human body.
Step 4: Uyir Thathukkal refers to three vital forces (Vatham, Pitham, Kabam), but Udal Thathukkal are the structural units.
