233 I.e., a symptom. 234 See Su.Sū.21.36, where this term is employed. Compare the commentaries. 235 The relationship between the two is that between anubandha and anubandhya (see Cakra and Dalhaṇa). 236 See for the history of ideas concerning the infection of wounds: M.D. Grmek (1991): 119–132; G. Majno (1974). See on the meanings of āsrāva in Vedic medicine: M. Bloomfield (1886): 467–469; J. Filliozat (1975): 101; V.W. Karambelkar (1961): 241–253; K.G. Zysk (1985). 237 Cf. Ca.Ci.25.18 and 26. See Cakra’s comments on the interpretation. 238 See Dalhaṇa’s remarks on different interpretations. Cf. Ca.Ci.25.36–37. 239 Compare the entirely different classification of Ca.Ci.25.20–21. 240 See on the explanations concerning the formation of pus in Greek medicine: M.D. Grmek (1991): 123–126. 241 See the interpretations of Cakra and Dalhaṇa. 242 See the interpretations of Cakra and Dalhaṇa. 243 Cf. Ca.Ci.25.24–25ab. 244 See Dalhaṇa. 245 Cf. Ca.Ci.25.28–29ab. 246 Cf. Ca.Ci.25.11–16. 247 Not systematically described in the Carakasaṃhitā; cf. Ca.Ci.25.11–16. 248 Cf. Ca.Ci.25.36. 249 Cf. Ca.Ci.25.37. 250 See on this subject: R. Dwivedi (1978). Cf. Ca.Ci.25.31cd–35. 251 See Su.Sū.1.23. 252 These three terms are frequent in Sāṃkhya texts: the commentaries ad Sāṃkhyakārikā 1.1, Aniruddha’s Sāṃkhyasūtravṛtti (see Larson and Bhattacharya, 1987: 333), the Jayamaṅgalā (see Larson and Bhattacharya, 1987: 272), the Māṭharavṛtti (see Larson and Bhattacharya, 1987: 292), the Sāṃkhyavṛtti (see Larson and Bhattacharya, 1987: 180), the Tattvasamāsasūtra (see Larson and Bhattacharya, 1987: 319), etc. They are also found in many other texts: Bhagavadgītā (adhyātma, adhibhūta, adhidhaiva: 7.29–30), Bhāgavatapurāṇa (1.5 and 10; 3.5), the commentary ad Haṭhayogapradīpikā 1.10, Pālakāpya’s Hastyāyurveda (1.7.3cd–6ab), Viṣṇupurāṇa (6.5), etc. The three terms are used with regard to soma by A.S. Ramanathan (1995). Pālakāpya classifies the diseases into ādhyātmika (= nija) and āgantu; the āgantu diseases are subdivided into ādhibhautika and ādhidaivika. 253 Cf. A.s.Sū.22. 254 See the commentaries. 255 Pālakāpya divides the ādhyātmika diseases into doṣaja and mānasa (mental), the Viṣṇupurāṇa (6.5.2) into śārīra (bodily) and mānasa. 256 Not all the āgantu disorders are saṃghātabalapravṛtta; those caused by bhūtas, etc., belong to the ādhidaivika category (see Cakra). 257 Other types of injuries are included (see Cakra). 258 The Viṣṇupurāṇa (6.5.7) includes piśācas and rākṣasas. 259 A normal course of the seasons gives rise to periodical accumulation and excitation of the doṣas. 260 Or: harm inflicted by the gods.
