This chapter is quite comprehensive and considers various principles of embryology. The important ones are related to twin formation and development and congenital/chromosomal diseases all of which are said to be caused by vitiated ''vayu''. These principles are backed up by cross references in the same ''samhita'' or other ''samhitas''. These cross references are well illustrated below.
