Changes

Is the decision taken after a scientific discussion, taking into consideration both sides of the arguments. E.g. in the tenth chapter of [[ Sutra Sthana]], discussion between Lord Atreya and the sage Maitreya over the significance of the quadruple (consisting of the physician, attendants and nursing staff, medicines and the patient) is narrated. The argument of Maitreya, that these four factors don’t have any significant role in the disease cure, is refuted by Lord Atreya and their role is proven. The concluding statement of Lord Atreya, that these four factors when endowed with good qualities, are significant for the treatment, is called as Nirnaya.[[Mahachatushpada Adhyaya |(Cha.Su.10/4-5)]]

===15. Prasanga(Restatement)===

In clinical medicine, the final diagnosis can be considered with this method.  

It is a virtue by which allusion is made to things repeatedly described in other chapter. Here since it is necessary, to quote certain facts, for proper understanding in other contexts also. So this is not mere repetition. E.g.  As per [[Charak Samhita]], only ''sama prakriti'' (balanced state of all three doshas) is Prakriti, and Vatala (Vata dominant) etc. Prakriti (specific body constitution with predominance of one or two doshas) are termed as in fact vikriti (imbalance, abnormality). Therefore, the treatment for them is described in Ch.Su.7.41. Again in Ch.Vi.6.14-18 since in that context also it was needed, treatment for vatala etc. is again described.

 

 

It is a virtue by which allusion is made to things repeatedly described in other chapter in different context. Here since it is necessary, to quote certain facts, for proper understanding in other contexts also. So this is not mere repetition. E.g.  As per [[Charak Samhita]], only ''sama prakriti'' (balanced state of all three doshas) is Prakriti (natural), and Vatala (Vata dominant) etc. Prakriti (specific body constitution with predominance of one or two doshas) are termed as in fact vikriti (imbalance, abnormality). Therefore, the treatment for them is described in seventh chapter of [[Sutra Sthana]] in Ch.Su.7.41. Again in Ch.Vi.6.14-18 since in that context also it was needed, treatment for vatala etc. is again described.
