<p style="text-align:justify;">Having or expressing desires is a human trait, and only human beings aspire to fulfil them. This chapter explains three basic desires in human beings- longevity, wealth (or materialistic comforts), and a blissful afterlife. The guidelines to fulfil them during one’s life leading to a healthy and righteous life are also given in this chapter, hence it comes under the tetrad of guidelines of healthcare management. It also guides to treat a patient with physical and/or mental disease and describes eight triads. The theories of reincarnation and creation of universe are discussed and explained. Four means for getting absolute knowledge (pariksha viz.examination, pratyaksha (clearly perceivable), anumana (Inference based on evidence) and yukti (logical management) and their role in establishing the theory of reincarnation are described in detail. A physician can use these methods to know about disease (roga) and patient (rogi) completely and can choose appropriate courses of treatment, with suitable drugs. </br>

The third desire is the aspiration for a virtuous life in the other world (life after death. There is some skepticism regarding this desire). What happens after death? Does rebirth occur? Why are there doubts regarding reincarnation? Lord Atreya says that there are people who believe in perceptible things and do not believe in imperceptible things. ''Acharyas'' (teachers) who have faith in the ''shastras'' believe in the theory of reincarnation even when they have not perceived or experienced it. But there is skepticism because of differences in opinion. Among the “believing” ''acharyas'', some  attribute the role of ‘parents or ancestors’, some on ''swabhava''(personality or nature of the individual), some on the role of the ''paranirman'' (impersonal soul), while some on ''yadruchha'' ( free will or external powers responsible for sudden occurrences of events in the universe) in the process of reincarnation. Because of so many opinions and schools of thought, there is skepticism with regards to the theory of reincarnation, whether it exists or not. [6]

Inference is preceded by perception and is of three types- past, present and future. For example: fire is inferred from the coming smoke and sexual intercourse from pregnancy - these are inferences drawn from the present and the past respectively. By looking at a seed, one can infer about the species or genus of the plant or tree and the kind of fruits it would bear. This inference is drawn on the basis of repeated, empirical observation of the plant’s (or tree’s) lifecycle and is an example of inferring (or predicting) the future. [21-22]

There are three pathways of disease manifestation- ''shakha'' (peripheral path), ''marmasthisandhi'' (vital organs & bone joints) and ''koshtha'' (digestive system). The ''shakha'' includes tissue elements like blood and skin etc.; this is considered as ''bahya rogamarga'' (external path for disease manifestation). ''Marmas'' (vital organs) are ''basti'' (urinary bladder), ''hridaya''(heart), ''murdha'' (head) etc. bones, joints, ligaments and tendons, is considered as ''madhyama rogamarga'' (middle pathway for manifestation of disease).

A wise person when gets disease, by the administration of external and internal cleansing or surgical therapy regains health. Fools because of ignorance or lack of awareness, neglects the disease just like fool is not aware about his enemy. In early stage disease is in insignificant stage but as time passes it grows. Thereafter it becomes deep rooted and takes away the strength and life of affected person. The fools are never conscious about any abnormality till it affects seriously and when becomes seriously ill then only thinks about eradication of disease. After this calls his children, wife and relatives and requests them to call physician and says, “I am ready to give all my earnings”. But who can save person with lack of strength, weak, sick, emaciated, wretched, about to die and has developed organ failure. Failing to find saviour (good physician), fool loses his life just like an iguana dies when its tail tied with rope pulled by a strong person. That is the reason a person who is desirous of his well being, should try to get rid of disease in early stage (before complete manifestation) by getting treated with appropriate therapies. [56-63]
