== Lokapurusha samanya ==
<div style='text-align:justify;'>The universe's entire production process is controlled by kapha. The kapha dosha in the human body represents the jala and prithvimahabhuta. The moon, sun, and wind are responsible for nourishing (visarga), exhausting (adana), and dispersing (vikshepa) in the universe. Similarly, the kapha, pitta, and vata do the same things in the human body.[Su.Sa. Sutra Sthana 29/6]<ref name="ref3"/> </div>
