			<p style="text-align:justify;">This chapter describes criteria for classification and enumeration of diseases, [[agni]] (digestion capacity) and patients. Because of variable symptoms and pathogenesis, the diseases are innumerable and they are categorized in groups. The purpose of grouping is to find common modalities for treatment and diagnosis and it is essential to know the disease pathology at micro level. The source components of all the physical and mental disorders are tri[[dosha]] (three morbid factors). There are three basic causes, viz. injudicious use of senses, intellectual errors and ignoring the bio clock. All diseases have common origin and pathway up to some level, which serves as criteria for grouping of ailments. The common criteria for the enumeration of diseases include prognosis, severity, location, nature of causative factors and site of origin. Classification of [[agni]] on the basis of strength is described in this chapter. [[Prakriti]] (constitution) as the parameter for the stratifying and clustering various types of patients and concept of psychosomatic diseases is highlighted. Primary and secondary diseases on the basis of priority of vitiation of [[dosha]] are explained for successful management of the disease. </br>

	Some scholars hold the view that living beings cannot have a balanced state of ''vata, pitta'' and ''kapha'' in their body because they are accustomed to the intake of diets which are seldom balanced. Therefore, according to them some individuals have ''vata prakriti'' (''vatika'' constitution), some have ''pitta prakriti'' (''pattika'' constitution) and the rest have ''kapha prakriti'' (''shlaishmika'' constitution). This is not correct because physicians take an individual to be healthy only when ''vata, pitta'' and ''kapha'' in his body are in a state of equilibrium and health represents the natural state of the body. It is with a view to maintaining good health that all types of treatments are prescribed. That state of the body is the most cherished one.

	The use of terms like ~~''vataprakriti~~, ~~pittaprakriti''~~ and ~~''kaphaprakriti''~~ is not correct because in these types of constitutions, there is always a dominance of ~~''doshas''~~ in the bodies of individuals. ''Prakriti'' means a normal or natural state and there should not be any dominance of ~~''doshas''~~ in the bodies of such individuals. So such individuals as are having the dominance of one or the other ~~''doshas''~~ cannot be described to have the normal state of their body. Thus to use the correct term, they are ''vatala'' (having the dominance of ''vata''), ''pittala'' (having the dominance of ''pitta'') and ''shlesmala'' (having the dominance of ''kapha''), and these do not indicate the normal state of their body.

	Depending upon their intensity, ~~''agnis''~~ (factors responsible for digestion and metabolism) located in the body of human beings can be classified under four categories, viz. ''tikshna'' (severe), ''manda'' (low), ''sama'' (normal) and ''vishama'' (irregular). The ''tikshna'' type is capable of tolerating all types of irregularities whereas the ''manda'' type is of opposite nature, i.e. even a small irregularity will impair its functioning. The ''sama'' or balanced type of ''agni'' gets impaired even by minor irregularities; it maintains its normalcy so long as there is no irregularity. The irregular type of ''agni'', as opposed to ''sama'' or balanced type, sometimes gets impaired and sometime it does not get impaired by irregularities.

	These four types of ''agni'' occur in the four types of individuals. In individuals having ''vata, pitta'' and ''kapha'' in their balanced and normal state, the ~~''agnis''~~ are regular or balanced. In the case of individuals having the dominance of ''vata'' constitution, due to the affliction of the site of ''agni'' by ''vata,'' their ~~''agnis''~~ are irregular. In the case of individuals having the dominance of ''pitta'', the ~~''agnis''~~ are sharp. Similarly, in the case of individuals having the dominance of ''kapha'' in the constitution, the ~~''agnis''~~ are mild due to the affliction of the site of ''agni'' by ''kapha''.
