76 Vi.8.122. Vedic texts sometimes agree, sometimes disagree (see P.V. Sharma's references). 77 Ci.1⁴.52–53 (many editions read dvitīyā jātiḥ and dvija). A physician is called trija (thrice-born) after completion of his training. A similar concept is found in the Aitareyopaniṣad (2). 78 Compare: Caraka, his identity and date. 79 AVI 77–78. Intr. (IX) to his ed. and translation of the Carakasamhitā. 80 See on the sūtra style in Sanskrit literature: J.E.M. Houben (1997); L. Renou (1963a). 81 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 15. 82 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 15–16. 83 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 65. AVI 77–78. Compare Ca.Sū.29.7: trividhāyurvedasūtra sasaṃgrahavyākaraṇa; Vi.8.3. 84 Sūramcandra (1978): I, 293. 85 For example: Sū.5.104; 6.8; 11.47; 12.15. 86 For example: Sū.19.6. 87 For example: Sū.11.53–63; 15.18–22. 88 Atrideva (ABI 153) attributes them to Agniveśa. 89 See Cakra's comments ad Sū.1.136–140 on the functions of the two types of verses. He refers to those introduced by tatra ślokāḥ, etc., as the adhyāyārthasaṃgraha. The function of those introduced by bhavanti cātra, is explained in the text of the saṃhitā itself (Ni.1.41) as concisely elucidating in verse what has been formulated in prose; Cakra remarks in his comments that the same type of verses is also found in chapters consisting of verse. 90 See, for example, ABI 153. Atrideva argues that examples like Ni.1.44 and Ci.3.346, verses referring to Ātreya and Agniveśa, prove that this type of verses was composed by Caraka. 91 Cakra ad Sū.1.2. Examples of a pratisamkartṛsūtra are Sū.1.2 and 4.22. 92 E.g., Sū.4.22: naitad evam buddhimatā draṣṭavyam agniveśa. 93 E.g., Sū.4.21: naitāni bhagavan pañca kaṣāyaśatāni pūryante. 94 E.g., Śā.6.21: śiraḥ pūrvam abhinivartate kukṣāv iti kumāraśirā bharadvājaḥ. 95 Compare the comments of Cakrapāṇi and Ḍalhaṇa ad Sū.5.1.1–2. 96 AVI 81. 97 Intr. (XXVII) to P.V. Sharma's ed. and transl. of the Carakasamhitā. 98 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 15. 99 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 65. The Carakasamhitā adds many types of sveda to those described in the Bhelasamhitā. 100 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 65. 101 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 65 does not specify which diseases he has in mind. 102 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 18) supposes that Caraka was influenced by Suśruta in this respect. 103 P.V. Sharma (1970a): 22–23, 63, 65. 104 See Caraka, his identity and date. 105 Nāḍījñānavidhi 17–20. 106 Ḍoḍara II: 6.4–12. 107 See Cikitsāmañjarī 7. 108 Rasakāmadhenu IV.8.134–137. 109 Rasaratnadīpikā 348–349. This formula is also ascribed to Caraka in a rather late treatise called Dhanvantari (see the description of this text). 110 Bhāratabhaiṣajyaratnākara Nr. 6963.
