This is the treatment for diseases arising due to ''purva janmakruta papa karma'' (sins of past life) or ''karmaja vyadhis'' (karmic ailments).

The observance of ''yama'' (''ahimsa''(non violence), ''satya'' (truth), ''astaya''(not to steal), ''bramhacharya''(control over sexual desire),and ''aparigraha'' (accumulation of prosperities)) and ''niyama'' (''shaucha'' (cleanliness), ''santosha'' (satisfaction), ''tapas'' (conquest of all desires), ''swadhyaya'' (self-study), ''ishwara pranidhana'' (surrender to God)) is also part of this treatment. This form of treatment includes chanting mantras, wearing amulets on body, wearing gems, precious stones etc. performing auspicious rituals, offerings to God, oblations, ''homa'', following ''niyama, prayachhitta, upavasa, svastyayana, pranipata'' and going to holy places.
