If there is any distortion in the image of the examiner reflected as a shadow in the pupil of the patient, should be considered as a sign of imminent death of the patient. ''Nimittanurupa vikriti'' (image pertaining to death) will serve as a yard stick to measure the span of life.

''Nimittanurupa vikriti'' (image pertaining to death) will serve as a yard stick to measure the span of life. The chapter deals with clinical observations of changes in skin complexion, pupillary reactions and their relevant prognosis.
The Sanskrit word "panna" means destruction or deterioration. Hence the chapter deals with the deterioration of complexion due to various disease pathologies leading to bad prognosis and death.

=== Role of [[Panchamahabhuta]] in complexion and luster ===
The Sanskrit word ''Pannarupi'' implies something whose form or aspect has disappeared. ''Pannarupam'' , the word, has been derived from ''apannarupam,'' implies ill-formed or confused in respect of shape. Any alterations in [[chhaya]] (complexion) and [[prabha]] (luster) denotes the ominous sign for the patient.
Following cross references are important to be re-visited to assess the role of ''pancha-mahabhuta'', especially ''tejas mahabhuta'' in complexion and luster.
=== Role of [[Pancha mahabhuta]] in complexion and luster ===
*Qualities of ''Pancha-mahabhuta'' are:
Following cross references are important to be re-visited to assess the role of [[pancha mahabhuta]], especially [[tejas mahabhuta]] in complexion and luster.
**Qualities of ''Akasha'' are- sound, auditory organ, all orifices and distinctness.
**Qualities of ''Vayu'' are – touch tactile organ, all activities, movements in all body parts and lightness.
*Qualities of [[Pancha mahabhuta]] are:
**Qualities of ''Tejas'' are – vision, visual organ, complexion, heat, splendor, digestion, intolerance, sharpness and valor.
**Qualities of [[Akasha]] are sound, auditory organ, all orifices and distinctness.
**Qualities of ''Apa'' are- taste, gustatory organ, all liquidity, heaviness, coldness, unctuousness and semen and
**Qualities of [[Vayu]] are touch tactile organ, all activities, movements in all body parts and lightness.
**Qualities of ''Parthiva'' (i.e., those that have qualities of the ''prithvi'' element) are- smell, olfactory organ, hardness and heaviness.(Su.Sha.1/19)
**Qualities of [[Tejas]] are vision, visual organ, complexion, heat, splendor, digestion, intolerance, sharpness and valor.
*''Tejas'' element is the causative factor of complexion when at the time of conception, it is predominantly associated with ''apa'' element, it makes the fetus fair- complexioned, predominance in ''parthivi'' elements causes black one. That in ''parthivi'' and ''akasha'' elements gives to black- sky complexion while predominance in ''apa'' and ''akasha'' elements makes fair-sky complexion of fetus. If ''tejas'' does not reach the visual organ, it makes the fetus born blind, the same associated with blood makes red eyed, that associated with ''pitta'' and ''kapha'' makes yellow- eyed and white-eyed respectively, if associated with ''vata'' it causes deformity in eyes.

==== Assessment of complexion and shadows and their relation with [[pancha mahabhuta]] ====
The changes in complexion and shadows can be assessed upon various parameters. This can indicate the dominance of specific [[mahabhuta]]. The characteristics are as shown in table 2 below.

=== Sign of Imminent Death ===
=== Signs of bad prognosis ===
#Patient who is suffering from ''kamala'', swelling in face, wasting in temples, and terrifying appearance with high fever has grave prognosis.
To see things devoid of their real characteristics - e.g., bright things looking dull and lusterless - indicates impending death of the patient. The process of dying usually begins well before death actually occurs. Death is a personal journey that each individual approaches in their own unique way. Nothing is concrete, nothing is set in stone. There are many paths one can take on this journey but all lead to the same destination. As one comes close to death, a process begins; a journey from the known life of this world to the unknown of what lies ahead. As that process begins, a person starts on a mental path of discovery, comprehending that death will indeed occur and believing in their own mortality. The journey ultimately leads to the physical departure from the body.
=== Sign of imminent death ===
#Patient who is suffering from [[kamala]], swelling in face, wasting in temples, and terrifying appearance with high fever has grave prognosis.
#Patient who faints again and again while being lifted from bed may not survive for a week. This is the time during the journey that one begins to sleep most of the time. Disorientation is common and altered senses of perception can be expected. One may experience delusions, such as fearing hidden enemies or feeling invincible. The dying person may also experience hallucinations, sometimes seeing or speaking to people that are not there or died in the past. Some may see this as the veil being lifted between this life and the next. The person may pick at their sheets and clothing in a state of agitation. Movements and actions may seem aimless and make no sense to others. They are moving further away from life to this earth.

Movements and actions may seem aimless and make no sense to others. They are moving further away from life to this earth.
#At the end of life, patients often lose interest in eating and drinking because the body is conserving its energy and no longer requires the same level of nourishment. It is important to let each individual decide how much, even if it is little or nothing, that he or she wishes to eat or drink. Family members should not force food or drink, as it will only make their loved one feel uncomfortable or upset. Near the end of life, patients no longer feel hunger pangs and forcing them to eat may actually cause nausea and abdominal pain. Eventually, the patient may become entirely unable to swallow food and fluids. Frequent mouth care will be given to help prevent dry mouth.

#As cardiac output and intravascular volume decrease at the end of life, there will be evidence of diminished peripheral blood perfusion. Tachycardia, hypotension, peripheral cooling, peripheral and central cyanosis, and mottling of the skin (livedo reticularis) are expected. Venous blood may pool along dependent skin surfaces. Urine output falls as perfusion of the kidneys diminishes.
