<p style="text-align:justify;">As mentioned earlier the pathology or the vitiation of normal physiology of stanya is the main reason behind the occurrence of diseases in the new-born. The basic dosha disequilibrium (vaishamya) can be understood as depletion (kshaya) and increase (vriddhi). It can be summarized in the table given below:(Table No. 1 – types of Vaishamya its features and understanding concerning Stanya)</p>
