*The presence and absence of knowledge (gyanasya abhava or Bhav) are the characteristics feature of mind ([[manas]]). [Cha.Sa.[[Sharira Sthana]] 1/18] The presence or absence of mind plays a key role in the perception of knowledge.

*The pathology is manifested by the depletion of increments in [[dosha]], [[dhatu]], and [[mala]]. These pathological states lead to the absence of some signs and symptoms. This helps in proper diagnosis and prognosis. So abhava is also helpful in understanding the normal physiology, pathology, diagnosis, and prognosis. For example, in insomnia (anidra), sleep is absent and leads to other disorders. The absence of normal digestion in indigestion leads to other signs.

*All the objects in this Universe have presence (bhava) and absence (abhava) which can be recognized by their proper maintenance (yoga), non-utilization (ayoga), excessive utilization (atiyoga), and improper utilization (mithyayoga). Bhava needs logical interpretation ([[yukti]]) for recognition. Abhava doesn’t depend on [[yukti]].[Cha.Sa.[[Sutra Sthana]] 11/44]

*All researches need hypothesis testing. A researcher in any study proposes the null hypothesis and underlines the desire for acceptance of an alternative idea through hypothesis testing (tests of statistics). The absence or abhava of the null hypothesis ultimately leads to the approval of the alternative idea.
