 The qualities of Dhatus involved are not in similar with those of the
Doshas
 The Doshas constituting the prakriti of the patient are also not
similar;
 The season is not supportive to the growth of the disease;
 The habitat is not supportive to the growth of the disease;
 Location of pathogenesis is confined to only one system
 The onset is recent and without complications
 Only one dosha is involved in pathogenesis;
 The body is fit to all kinds of medicaments;
 The fourfold therapeutic measures are available.

Diseases extending to two systems but not very chronic;
Those due to vitiation of two Doshas.

STHANA SAMSHRAYA… localization of Dosha @ specific site
 Initiation for process of amalgamation between Dosha & Dushya
(Dhatu / Mala / Upadhatu)
 Symptoms manifestation: as per involved components -Poorva Rupa
Treatment – disease specific
 Utility – to know disease, involved Dosha, to assess prognosis
 Benefit – may not manifest full-fledged disease.

Vyakti….
• One can name the disease…
•Cardinal symptom manifestation

Bheda…
Further progress of the disease…
Dosha predominance become more clear
Single Dosha-
Dual Dosha – Samsarga
All three Dosha – Sannipata
Predominant Dosha should be treated first, but should not harm

others

Srotas -

Prakriti is determined by following factors.
– Constitution and Doshik dominancy of Sperm and Ovum at the
time of conception.
– Season and condition of the uterus
– food and regime of the mother at the time and after conception
– Nature of penta elements (Mahabhootas) comprising the
foetus.

dominant person remained diseased ever.
◦ Vata Prakriti person is of less strength and so physician should be care full if
he is planning any Samshodhan (body purification) treatment for him.

any disease and having good strength.

animal or man, they fall victims to depression, pallor, fainting,
madness, giddiness or falling on the ground, or such events may

Satmya pariksha [Homologation]
Such factors/ diet which are wholesome to the

individual (even when used continuously) are
called Satmya.. Opposite to it is called Asatmya
(un wholesome)
Dr.Darshna Pandya 26/01/23 146

Good Quality of Satmya
Individuals for whom ghee, milk, oil and meat soup
as well as the drugs and diet having all six tastes are
wholesome, are of Good Quality Satmya.

Least Quality of Satmya
Those who are accustomed to Ruksha material, drugs
and/or diet, or having only one particular taste are of least
quality Satmya.

Moderate Quality of Satmya
if there is combination of both these types of
homologation, individuals are called moderate quality of
Satmya.

Why Satmya to be assessed?
Good quality of satmya - endowed with strength, power of the
facing difficult situation and longevity.
Moderate quality - moderate strength.
List quality - possessed of less strength, less resistance, life span and
inadequate accessories like drug for the treatment.

VIKRITI – to be examined to ascertain the nature of the disease
 Causative Factors
 Involved Dosha & Dhatus In The Pathogenesis
 Constitution of An Individuals / of Disease
 Habitat
 Season
 Manifested Symptoms of The Disease

Eight Fold Examinations
1. Nadi (Pulse) 5. Shabda (Patients’ sound)
2. Mutra (Urine) 6. Shparsha (Touch),
3. Mala (Faeces)
7. Druk (Eyes)
4. Jihva (Tongue)
8. Akriti (Physiognomy)
Naadi - Examination of pulse
Not much ancient
Eight site.
Male - right hand Female - left hand

Should be examined in morning time and empty stomach
It should be examined in sitting position of physician as well as
patient
Keep in mind…
Should be examine in morning time but can be examined any time in emergency.
The patient should be calm.
Empty stomach is preferable, but patient should not be hungry or thirsty.
Should not examine immediately after bath. Exercises, massage, sex, or while the
patient is sleeping
METHOD OF EXAMINATION:
The physician places the first three fingers
The position of the finger should be such that index finger lies adjacent
to the process
The character of Naadi beatings reveals health, ill health and death.
Pulse examination
 Rate
 Rhythm
 Volume
 Force
 Tension
Dosha predominance
Naadi of a healthy individual:
The pulse of a healthy individual is said to have the
movement like that have a swan or elephant. Along with

it the face of the person also looks cheerful.
Pulse in various Dhosha dominancy:
Vata:
Felt below index finger
Seems to have movement like, snake or leech – light
and active
Comparatively fast and of low volume
Pitta:
 Felt below middle finger
Seems to have jumping movement like of crow of frog

Rate and volume are moderate or some time slight high
Kapha:
Felt below the ring finger
Seems to have slow and steady, like swan or pigeon.
Slow in rate and full in volume

Sannipat Naadi (Dominancy of all three Dosha):
Pulse felt below all three fingers
Very fast rate
To have movement like trembling

Pulse in various condition
Stage of digestion: very slow and low in volume
In state of Ama, it becomes heavy
If digestive power is good—it felt light & active
In state of Dhatu Kshya:

Pulse become very slow & low in volume

On the basis of behavior of drop
spreads over the surface of urine – Sadhyata
remains as Bindu without spreading over urine surface -
Asadhyata.
Taila Bindu sinks to bottom - indication of death.
Dosha indication
snake - Vataja Vikara,
umbrella) - in Pitta
 pearl shape -- Kaphaja Vikara.
Deerga Rogi if Taila Bindu on the surface of urine

 circular - Vataja Vikara Bubbles - Pitta
drop - Kaphaja Vikara
Sinks to the bottom - Sannipataja

Common information for the examination
Oil – highest viscosity Krishna Til Taila
Material of container – glass
Procedure –
Volume of urine – ¾ of Petri dish Size of the dish – 8”

diameter
Time – maximum two hours after collection
Height of drop – 1 cm
hypothesis for spread
1. Gravity – accelerating force
2. viscous force – retarding one

3. Inter facial tension – final determination
The interfacial tension between the surface active molecules and the
oil may decide providing possibilities of different speed, and extent
of spread.
Hypothesis for different shapes
Pattern - Surface active molecules and other metabolites
Direction– may be presence of the paramagnetic molecules
which may align as per the magnetic field of the earth
