Pancha Bhoota or Pancha Maha-Bhoota (Sanskrit: ???????, ?????????? ) , five great elements, also five physical elements, is a group of five basic elements, which, according to Hinduism, is the basis of all cosmic creation. These elements are: Prithvi/Bhudevi (Hindi: ??????, Earth), Apas/Varuna/Jal (Hindi: ??, Water), Agni(Hindi:?????, Fire), Vayu (Hindi: ????, Air), Aakash/Dyaus(Hindi: ????, Aether). These elements have different characteristics and these also account for different faculties of human experience. In ayurveda and Indian philosophy, the human body is considered to be made of these five elements. However, C?rv?ka did not accept Akash as basic element as it is not tangible and according to him, there are only four basic elements. Buddhism also accepts four basic elements and Akash is left out. These five elements of Indian cosmological system are similar but not identical to five element theory used in East Asia.

Yoga Tattva Mudra Vijnana relates these five elements to five fingers of human being.

The three dosha- three intrinsic tendencies, which, according to ayurveda are intrinsic in every human being, are representation of combination of these five elements in human body. The three Dosha have subtle positive essences which control the mind and body function.
