*''Tridoshika'' disequlibrium is a precursor to diseases and their pathogenesis varies with level of ''vriddhi'' (increase) or ''kshaya'' (decrease) and a typical permutation or combination of such ''doshas'' can lead to different manifestations of the disease. | |||
*Increased and decreased states of ''dosha'' and vitiation of a particular ''dosha'' depends upon the exposure to causative factors in diet and lifestyle. | |||
*The increased or decreased ''dosha'' state can be identified by clinical appearance of their increased or decreased functions. Thus clinical diagnosis based on observations is more important than pathological or radiological investigations. | |||
*A normal ''dosha'' can also exhibit some signs. Increased ''vata'' can pull normal ''pitta'' and ''kapha'' away to places other than their normal location to manifest their own features there. | |||
*''Ojas'' is the first substance formed in a living being and the sustenance of life depends upon the quality and quantity of ''ojas''. Death can occur due to destruction of ''ojas''. | |||
*''Kapha, pitta, meda, mamsa, ojas'' and obstructed ''vata'' are important pathogenic factors in ''madhumeha'' (diabetes). | |||
*Diseases can occur due to different states or movements of ''dosha'' like increased or decreased state, upward or downward movements, or movement from center of body to periphery or to vital centers. This also depends upon the environmental and seasonal changes. | |||
*Digestion, temperature and heat in the body is mainly controlled by ''pitta''. Strength of body depends upon ''kapha''. Whereas ''vata'' is responsible for all movements and and vitality. | |||
