	*''Arishta'' related to ''Gandha - Pitta'' is primarily responsible factor for all odors as it has ''visra gandha''. When ''pitta'' reaches the ''twak'' or skin and exerts its ''visra gandha'' by ''bhrajaka pitta'', it’s odor is of sweat and sebum ???. In this way we can derive the cause and effect. All these verses describe how the various smells (both good as well as bad odors) emitted by the body of an individual without any appreciable causes denote the impending death of the person within a year.		*''Arishta'' related to ''Gandha - Pitta'' is primarily responsible factor for all odors as it has ''visra gandha''.

	*''Arishta'' related to various odors (''Gandha''): These smells coming from the body of individuals represent manifestations of major metabolic disorder which is altering the normal smell of the body.

	*''Arishta'' related to taste of the body (''Rasa'')and their examination: ''Gandha'' and other parameters can be examined by ''pratyaksha pramana'', but ''rasa'' is always examined by ''anumana pramana'' or by inference because of lack of laboratory investigations. For example, If flies and ants are attracted towards the body – then it is inferred that the taste of the body has become sweet and if the lice, mosquitoes etc. started leaving the patient’s body, it is inferred that the patient’s body has developed excessive distaste. This information can be helpful in certain rural areas of the world.
