Jamini Bhushan Ray

Jamini Bhushan Ray (Bengali: যামিনী ভূষণ রায়; 1 July 1879 (17 Asharh 1286 BS) – 11 August 1926 (26 Srabon 1333 BS)) was an Indian Ayurvedic physician, Sanskrit scholar, educator, and philanthropist. He founded the Ashtanga Ayurveda College and Hospital in Calcutta in 1916 and established the Vaidyaraj Pharmacy, both of which formed part of his efforts to modernise Ayurvedic education and pharmaceutical practice during the late colonial period. Contemporary scholarship identifies him as an important figure in the revival of Ayurveda in Bengal through the development of educational institutions, pharmaceutical enterprises and professional organisations.

Trained in both Sanskrit scholarship and Western medicine, Ray advocated the systematic study of Ayurveda and promoted formal education, clinical training and scholarly publication alongside its classical traditions.
