The cause of the disease involves many different aspects of the imbalance of the dosFor, to an unbalanced digestive fire (agni), to the accumulation of Forme, to the obstruction of the channels (srotas) and the deficiency of dhForyou. Internally, the movement of the disease is from the mind to the body where the attitudes of greed, fear, anger, pain, arrogance, jealousy and hatred are somatized in the tissues. Ayurveda clearly states that the ‘desire’ (rForGeorgia) is a feeling that generates a pathological ‘heat’ in the mind that generates these other emotions. Desire creates an obsessive attachment to various objects and this locks us in a cycle of clinging and dissatisfaction.
When stimulated, strong emotions create an agitating ‘friction’ that irritates the digestion, nervous system, and then tissues, which can cause a variety of diseases. For example, in the pathology of fever (jvara), the accumulated heat leaves its residence in the stomach and invades the rasa tissues and disease-causing heat spreads throughout the system. Imbalance of dosFor is internally caused by mithyForhForravihForra or inappropriate foods and activities:
1. Crimes Against Wisdom (praj˜nForthroughFordha) means violating your inner sense of intuition, as well as ignoring your past experience. Denying this wisdom results in acting inappropriately for who you are. For example, a Pitta prakryou person who eats a lot of chili peppers knowing that this will cause inflammation and irritation. They are also classified under this heading the restraint of natural urges (vegetablesForvarodha); The need to be thirsty, hungry, sneezing, yawning, crying, urinating, defecating, flatulence, belching, ejaculation, sleeping, waking up and breathing due to overexertion should not be denied (Caraka Sam hitFor SyourtrasthForn / A 7.1).
2. Unhealthy attachment of the senses to their objects (aceFortmyendrIyasasubwayyoga) including insufficient, excessive or inappropriate use of the senses, such as wanting something too much, too little or when it is inappropriate for the constitution (Caraka SyourtrasthForn / A 1.54). It boils down to unhealthy activities of the body and mind. For example, it is well known that excessive consumption of sweets can cause pancreatic enzyme imbalances, blood sugar problems, and eventually diabetes. This is a kapha problem resulting from an excess of kapha food and emotions (greed or attachment). If a person habitually lives with these habits, he will get sick. Another famous Ayurvedic adage is’sarve ‘pirogFor mandForgnihetavah, ‘which means that all disease is caused by an imbalance of the digestive fire; is upset by extreme emotions or an improper diet.
3. Seasonal influences (betnoForme) such as climate change, geographical peculiarities or simply the annual cycle of seasonal variation can disturb the dosFor and cause disease.
These may involve:
- Atiyoga: excessive indulgence
- HInayoga: improper indulgence
- MithyForyoga: inappropriate indulgence.
Other causes are
Four. Inherited: These are the trends we are born with. It is as if we had a constitutional threshold that, depending on various factors, may or may not manifest itself; for example, psoriasis, diabetes, or heart disease.
5. Trauma: accidents that affect the body and mind.
6. Guess: intervention on a subtle level from the divine realm, eg magic spells.
7. Environmental: the availability of food, water and shelter has an obvious impact on health.
8. Karmic: the disease has been the result of actions in another life.
