The survey on pictorial guide to commonly used medicinal plants of Sowa-rigpa and Ayurveda was carried out and document 50 important medicinal plants used by the traditional healer, out of 50 medicinal plants only 11 medicinal plants are selected for present study. The raw material for these plants is the primary mode of health care for most of the population and traditional doctors. Fresh leaves, fresh stem, root, bark, resin, flower, seeds and sometimes the whole part of the plant are used for the preparation of folk medicine. But the existing population of medicinal plants is declining at alarming rate due destruction of habitat and unsustainable utilization lead to declining of number of medicinal plant, therefore a preventive strategy is needed to maintain Himalayan ecology. Present paper enables the readers to identify the use of various species for different kinds of disease.
