*Sarvatantra siddhanta is that which is accepted universally by all the treatises such as – there are causes, there are diseases and there are remedies for the curable disorders.  

*'''''Sarvatantra siddhanta''''' is that which is accepted universally by all the treatises such as – there are causes, there are diseases and there are remedies for the curable disorders.  

Pratitantra siddhanta is that which is not universal in nature and is held by only one of the treatises such as – in other treatises there are eight rasas but here are six; here are the five sense organs while in other texts there are six sense organs; per other texts all diseases are caused by vata etc. , but in this text they are considered to be caused by vata and other dosha as well as bhutas.

Adhikarana siddhanta is that which is established by implication of other proofs. Such as – the emancipated can’t show any good or bad consequent effect of deeds because of absence of desires. This proves the effects of deeds, emancipation, presence of self and the other world.

Abhyupagama siddhanta is that which is held up by physicians temporarily and hypothetically during debate though the idea is unproved, untested, uninstructed and irrational such as – proposing that dravya is predominant or guna or properties are predominant or virya is predominant.
