The concept of Yogya Dravya Abhyāsa described by Āchārya Suśruta in the Yogya Sūtrīya Adhyāya of Suśruta Saṃhitā represents the earliest form of simulation training, emphasizing skill acquisition through practice on substitute materials rather than live subjects. This review explores the relevance of these classical training models—such as practice on plant stalks, animal tissues, and clay or leather models—and correlates them with modern simulation-based methodologies, including manikin-based, tissue-based, virtual reality, and standardized patient simulations. Both traditional and modern systems share the objective of enhancing precision, minimizing errors, and promoting ethical, experiential learning. Contemporary technologies like the Anatomage Table further advance these ancient principles by integrating virtual anatomy and imaging for realistic, risk-free learning. The convergence of Suśruta’s scientific foresight with modern simulation models reaffirms the timeless value of hands-on education in Ayurveda, providing a strong framework for safe, effective, and ethically grounded medical practice.
