Garuda Purana

कामाद्भ्रमोऽरुचिर्दाहो ह्रीनिद्राधीधृतिक्षयाः । ग्रहादौ सन्निपातस्य रूपादौ मरुतस्तयोः ॥ १,१४७.

From desire arise dizziness, loss of appetite, burning, shame, sleep, intellect, and memory; in possession and similar cases, the symptoms of combined humors and, at the beginning, of wind and the others.

कोपात्कोपेऽपि पित्तस्य यौ तु शापाभिचारजौ । सन्निपातज्वरौ घोरौ तावसह्यतमौ मतौ ॥ १,१४७.

Of the fevers arising from anger or even from excessive anger of bile, those caused by curses and black magic, the two severe fevers of deranged humors are considered the most unbearable.

तन्त्रा भिचारिकैर्मन्त्रैर्दूयमानञ्च तप्यते । पूर्वञ्चैतस्ततो देहस्ततो विस्फोटदिग्भ्रमैः ॥ १,१४७.

Afflicted by spells and incantations of sorcery, the body is tormented; at first, this affects the body, and then eruptions and disorientation follow.

सदाहमूर्छाग्रस्तस्य प्रत्यहं वर्धते ज्वरः । इति ज्वरोऽष्टधा दृष्टः समासाद्द्विबिधस्तु सः ॥ १,१४७.

For one always seized by burning and fainting, the fever increases daily; thus, fever is seen in eight forms, but in summary, it is of two kinds.

शारीरो मानसः सौम्यस्तीक्ष्णोंन्तर्बहिराश्रयः । प्राकृतो वैकृतः साध्योऽसाध्यः सामो निरामकः ॥ १,१४७.

It is bodily or mental, gentle or intense, internal or external in origin; natural or unnatural, curable or incurable, simple or without complications.

पूर्वं शरिरे शरीरे तापो मनसि मानसे । पवनैर्योगवाहित्वाच्छीतं श्लेष्मयुते भवेत् ॥ १,१४७.

At first, heat arises in the body in bodily fever, and in the mind in mental fever; due to the influence of wind, coldness occurs when phlegm is present.

दाहः पित्तयुते मिश्रं मिश्रेऽन्तः संश्रये पुनः । ज्वरेऽधिकं विकाराः स्युरन्तः क्षोभो मलग्रहः ॥ १,१४७.

Burning occurs when bile is involved; when mixed, it again takes refuge internally; in fever, greater disorders arise, with internal agitation and retention of wastes.

बहिरेव बहिर्वेगे तापोऽपि च स साधितः । वर्षाशरद्वसन्तेषु वाताद्यैः प्रकृतः क्रमात् ॥ १,१४७.

When the force is external, the heat is also external and thus established; in the rainy, autumn, and spring seasons, fever arises from wind and other humors in due order.

वैकृतोऽन्यः स दुः साध्यः प्रायश्च प्राकृतोऽनिलात् । वर्षासु मारुतो दुष्टः पित्तश्लेष्मान्वितं ज्वरम् ॥ १,१४७.

The unnatural type is different and difficult to cure, while the natural one mostly arises from wind; in the rains, disturbed wind causes fever associated with bile and phlegm.

कुर्याच्च पित्तं शरदि तस्य चानुचरः कफः । तत्प्रकृत्या विसर्गाच्च तत्र नानशनाद्भयम् ॥ १,१४७.

In autumn, it produces bile, and phlegm follows it; due to the nature and release of these, there is no danger from eating various foods at that time.

कफो वसन्ते तमपि वातपित्तं भवेदनु । बलवत्स्वल्पदोषेषु ज्वरः साध्योऽनुपद्रवः ॥ १,१४७.

Phlegm predominates in spring, and then wind and bile may follow; when the disorder is mild, fever is curable and without complications.

सर्वथा विकृतिज्ञाने प्रागसाध्य उदाहृतः । ज्वरोपद्रवतीक्ष्णत्वं मन्दाग्निर्बहुमूत्रता ॥ १,१४७.

In all cases, when the disorder is recognized, it is said to be incurable beforehand; the severity of fever's complications includes weak digestion and excessive urination.

न प्रवृत्तिर्न विजीर्णा न क्षुत्सामज्वराकृतिः । ज्वरवेगोऽधिकस्तृष्णा प्रलापः श्वसनं भ्रमः ॥ १,१४७.

There is no appetite, no proper digestion, no hunger, and the fever has a characteristic appearance; the fever's intensity increases, with thirst, delirium, labored breathing, and dizziness.

मलप्रवृत्तिरुत्क्लेशः पच्यमानस्य लक्षणम् । जीर्णतामविपर्यासात्सप्तरात्रं च लङ्घनम् ॥ १,१४७.

The urge to pass waste and its disturbance are signs of the fever maturing; if there is no reversal, fasting for seven nights brings resolution.

ज्वरः पञ्चविधः प्रोक्तो मलकालबलाबलात् । प्रायशः सन्निपातेन भूयसामुपदिश्यते ॥ १,१४७.

Fever is said to be of five kinds, depending on waste, time, strength, and weakness; but most often, it is described as arising from the derangement of all three humors.

सन्ततः सततोऽन्येद्युस्तृतीयकचतुर्थकौ । धातुमूत्रशकृद्वाहिस्नोत सां व्यापिनो मलाः ॥ १,१४७.

Continuous, constant, every other day, third day, and fourth day fevers—these are carried by the humors, urine, and feces, and are widespread due to the wastes.

तापयन्तस्तनुं सर्वां तुल्यदृष्ट्यादिवर्धिताः । बलिनो गुरवस्तस्याविशेषेण रसाश्रिताः ॥ १,१४७.

They heat the entire body, increasing equally from the beginning; they are strong and heavy, residing in the vital fluids without distinction.

सततं निष्प्रतिद्वन्द्वाज्वरं कुर्युः सुदुः सहम् । मलं ज्वरोष्णधातून्वा स शीघ्रं क्षपयेत्ततः ॥ १,१४७.

Constant, without any opposition, such fever is extremely hard to endure; fever or heat, or the disturbed humors, quickly destroy the body.

सर्वाकारं रसादीनां शुद्ध्यासुद्ध्यापि वा क्रमात् । वातपित्तकफैः सप्तद शद्वादशवासरात् ॥ १,१४७.

In all forms, whether the vital fluids and others are pure or impure in due course, wind, bile, and phlegm cause fever in seven, six, or twelve days.

प्रायोऽनुयाति मर्यादां मोक्षाय च वधाय च । इत्यग्निवेशस्य मतं हारीतस्य पुनः स्मृतिः ॥ १,१४७.

Generally, the boundary is followed for both liberation and destruction; this is the opinion of Agnivesha, and again the tradition of Harita.

द्विगुणा सप्तमी या च नवम्येकादशी तथा । एषा त्रिदोषमर्यादा मोक्षाय च वधाय च ॥ १,१४७.

The seventh day, which is doubled, as well as the ninth and eleventh; this is the boundary of the three doshas, for both liberation and destruction.

शुद्ध्याशुद्ध्या ज्वरः कालं दीर्घमप्यत्र वर्तते । कृशानां व्याधियुक्तानां मिथ्याहारादिसेविनाम् ॥ १,१४७.

Due to purity or impurity, fever may persist for a long time here, especially in those who are emaciated, afflicted by disease, or who indulge in improper diet and similar habits.

अल्पोऽपि दोषो दुष्ट्यादेर्लब्ध्वान्यतमतो बलम् । स प्रत्यनीको विषमं यस्माद्वृद्धिक्षयान्वितः ॥ १,१४७.

Even a small defect, having gained strength from impurity or other causes, becomes antagonistic and irregular, because it is accompanied by increase and decrease.

सविक्षेपो ज्वरं कुर्याद्विषमक्षयवृद्धिभाक् । दोषः प्रवर्तते तेषां स्वे काले ज्वरयन्बली ॥ १,१४७.

With disturbance, it produces fever, having irregular increase and decrease; the dosha acts in them, fevering strongly at its own time.

निवर्तते पुनश्चैव प्रत्यनीकबलाबलः । क्षीणदोषो ज्वरः सूक्ष्मो रसादिष्वेव लीयते ॥ १,१४७.

It ceases again, with the strength or weakness of the antagonist; when the dosha is diminished, the subtle fever merges only into the fluids and so forth.

लीनत्वात्कार्श्यवैवर्ण्यजाड्यादीनां दधाति सः । आसन्नविकृतास्यत्वात्स्रोतसां रसवाहिनाम् ॥ १,१४७.

Because of merging, it causes emaciation, discoloration, dullness, and similar conditions; due to the proximity of altered mouths of the channels carrying fluids.

आशु सर्वस्य वपुषो व्याप्तिदोषो न जायते । सन्तः सततस्तेन विपरीतो विपर्ययात् ॥ १,१४७.

The defect does not quickly spread throughout the whole body; those who are virtuous are always thus, but the opposite occurs in the contrary case.

विषमो विषमारम्भः क्षपाकालेन सङ्गवान् । दोषो रक्ताश्रयः प्रायः करोति सन्ततं ज्वरम् ॥ १,१४७.

Irregular, with irregular onset, joined with the time of night; the dosha, residing in the blood, generally produces continuous fever.

अहोरात्रस्य सन्धौ स्यात्सकृदन्येद्युराश्रितः । तस्मिन्मांसवहा नाडी मेदोनाडी तृतीयके ॥ १,१४७.

At the junction of day and night, it occurs once, and on another day it is based; in that, the flesh-carrying channel, the fat channel, is in the third instance.
