Garuda Purana

हरिद्राभेदवर्णाभस्तद्वल्लेपं प्रमेहति । स वै हारिद्रको नाम ज्वरभेदोऽन्तकः स्मृतः ॥ १,१४७.

With a turmeric-like color and similar coating in diabetes, this is called 'haridraka', a fatal type of fever.

कफवातौ समौ यत्र हीनपित्तस्य देहिनः । तीक्ष्णोऽथ वा दिवा मन्दो जायते रात्रिजो ज्वरः ॥ १,१४७.

Where phlegm and wind are both present and bile is deficient in the body, the fever is sharp by day or mild, but arises at night.

दिवाकरार्पितबले व्यायामाच्च विशोषिते । शरीरे नियतं वाताज्ज्वरः स्यात्पौर्वरात्रिकः ॥ १,१४७.

When the body's strength is given to the sun and exhausted by exertion, fever from wind surely arises in the early part of the night.

आमाशये यदात्मस्थे श्लेष्मपित्ते ह्यधः स्थिते । तदर्धं शीतलं देहे ह्यर्धं चोष्णं प्रजायते ॥ १,१४७.

When the self is in the stomach and phlegm and bile are situated below, half the body becomes cold and the other half hot.

काये पित्तं यदा न्यस्तं श्लेष्मा चान्ते व्यवस्थितः । उष्णत्वं तेन देहस्य शीतत्वं करपादयोः ॥ १,१४७.

When bile is placed in the body and phlegm is settled at the extremities, the body becomes hot, while the hands and feet are cold.

रसरक्ताश्रयः साध्यो मांस मेदोगतश्च यः । अस्थिमज्जागतः कृच्छ्रस्तैस्तैः स्वाङ्गैर्हतप्रभः ॥ १,१४७.

That which is situated in the fluids, blood, flesh, and fat, and that which is in the bone and marrow—when afflicted in these respective parts, the body loses its luster.

विसंज्ञो ज्रवेगार्तः सक्रोध इव वीक्षते । सदोषमुष्णञ्च सदा शकृन्मुञ्चति वेगवत् ॥ १,१४७.

He becomes unconscious, distressed by the urge to evacuate, and looks around as if angry; he constantly passes foul, hot stool with force.

देहो लघुर्व्यपगतक्लममोहतापः पाको मुखे करणसौष्ठवमव्यथत्वम् । स्वेदः क्षुवः प्रकृतियोगिमनोऽन्नलिप्सा कण्डूश्च मूर्ध्नि विगत्ज्वरलक्षणानि ॥ १,१४७.

The body is light, free from fatigue, delusion, and heat; digestion is in the mouth, the senses function well, there is no pain; sweating, sneezing, the mind united with its nature, desire for food, and itching on the head are signs of absence of fever.

श्रीगरुडमहापुराणम् १४८ धन्वन्तरिरुवाच । अथातो रक्तपित्तस्य निदानं प्रवदाम्यहम् । भृशोष्णतिक्तकट्वम्ललवणादिविदाहिभिः ॥ १,१४८.

Dhanvantari said: Now, therefore, I will explain the causes of blood-bile disorder—by consuming excessively hot, bitter, pungent, sour, salty, and burning substances.

कोद्रवोद्दालकैश्चान्यैस्तदुक्तैरति सेवितैः । कुपितं पैत्तिकैः पित्तं द्रवं रक्तञ्च मूर्छति ॥ १,१४८.

By eating kodrava, uddālaka, and other such foods repeatedly mentioned, and by excessive use of bile-provoking substances, bile becomes aggravated, turns fluid, and blood is disturbed.

तैर्मिथस्तुल्यरूपत्वमागम्य व्याप्नुवंस्तनुम् । पित्तरक्तस्य विकृतेः संसर्गाद्दषणादपि ॥ १,१४८.

When these combine and attain similarity in form, they spread throughout the body; the disorder of bile and blood arises from their mixture, even from a bite.

गन्धवर्णानुवृत्तेषु रक्तेन व्यपदिश्यते । प्रभवत्यसृजः स्थानात्प्लीहतो यकृतश्च सः ॥ १,१४८.

When blood displays the same smell and color as bile, it is identified as such; it arises from the sites of blood, from the spleen, and from the liver.

शिरोगुरुत्वमरुचिः शीतेच्छा धूमकोऽम्लकः । छर्धितश्छर्दिबै भत्स्यं कासः श्वासो भ्रमः क्लमः ॥ १,१४८.

Heaviness of the head, loss of taste, desire for cold, smoky or sour eructation, vomiting, aversion to food, cough, shortness of breath, dizziness, and fatigue occur.

लोहितो न हितो मत्स्यगन्धास्यात्वञ्च विज्वरे । रक्तहारिद्रहरितवर्णता नयनादिषु ॥ १,१४८.

The blood is not healthy, the mouth smells like fish, and in the absence of fever, there is redness, yellowish or greenish color in the eyes and other organs.

नीललोहित पीतानां वर्णानामविवेचनम् । स्वप्ने इन्मादधर्मित्वं भवत्यस्मिन्भविष्यति ॥ १,१४८.

There is inability to distinguish between blue, red, and yellow colors; in dreams, madness and unrighteousness will manifest in this condition.

उर्ध्वं नासाक्षिकर्णास्यैर्मेढ्रयोनिगुदैरधः । कुपितं रोमकूपैश्च समस्तैस्तत्प्रवर्तते ॥ १,१४८.

Upwards, it emerges from the nose, eyes, ears, and mouth; downwards, from the genitals and anus; and it also appears from the hair follicles—all these are its outlets when aggravated.

ऊर्ध्वं साध्यं कफाद्यस्मात्तद्विरेचनसाधितम् । बह्वौषधानि पित्तस्य विरेको हि वरौषधम् ॥ १,१४८.

When associated with phlegm, it is curable by purgation; many medicines are prescribed for bile, but purgation is the best remedy.

अनुबन्धी कफो यत्र तत्र तस्यापि शुद्धिकृत् । कषायाः स्वादवो यस्य विशुद्धौ श्लेष्मला हिताः ॥ १,१४८.

Where phlegm is also present, purification is beneficial; astringent and sweet tastes are suitable for cleansing phlegmatic disorders.

कटुतिक्तकषाया वा ये निसर्गात्कफावहाः । अधो याप्यञ्च नायुष्मांस्तत्प्रच्छर्दनसाधकम् ॥ १,१४८.

Those substances that are naturally pungent, bitter, or astringent, and remove phlegm, are suitable for downward-moving and chronic cases, and are treated by emesis.

अल्पौषधञ्च पित्तस्य वमनं नावमौषधम् । अनुबन्धि बलं यस्य शान्तपित्तनरस्य च ॥ १,१४८.

For bile with little strength, emesis is not the best remedy; where strength is associated, and in those with pacified bile, it is appropriate.

कषायश्च हितस्तस्य मधुरा एव केवलम् । कफमारुतसंस्पृष्टमसाध्यमुपनामनम् ॥ १,१४८.

Astringent substances are beneficial for him, and only sweet ones; when phlegm and wind are involved, it is incurable and named accordingly.

असह्यं प्रतिलोमत्वादसाध्यादौषधस्य च । न हि संशोधनं किञ्चिदस्य च प्रतिलोमिनः ॥ १,१४८.

When intolerable and contrary in direction, and when medicine is ineffective, no purification is possible for that which is contrary in direction.

शोधनं प्रतिलोमञ्च रक्तपित्तेऽभिसर्जितम् । एवमेवोपशमनं संशोधनमिहेष्यते ॥ १,१४८.

Purification in the contrary direction is prescribed in blood-bile disorders; likewise, pacification and purification are to be sought here.

संसृष्टेषु हि दोषेषु सर्वथा छर्दनं हितम् । तत्र दोषोऽत्र गमनं शिवास्त्र इव लक्ष्यते ॥ १,१४८.

When faults are mixed together, expulsion in every way is beneficial; in that case, the fault of remaining is regarded here like a missile of Shiva.

उपद्रवाश्च विकृतिं फलतस्तेषु साधितम् ॥ १,१४८.

Complications also produce distortion, and their results are thus established.

श्रीगरुडमहापुराणम् १४९ धन्वन्तरिरुवाच । आशुकारी यतः कासः स एवातः प्रवक्ष्यते । पञ्च कासाः स्मृता वातपित्तश्लेष्मक्षतक्षयैः ॥ १,१४९.

Dhanvantari said: Since cough acts quickly, it will now be described; five types of cough are recognized—arising from wind, bile, phlegm, injury, and wasting.

क्षयायोपेक्षिताः सर्वे बलिनश्चोत्तरोत्तरम् । तेषां भविष्यतां रूपं कण्ठे कण्डूररोचकः ॥ १,१४९.

All those associated with wasting, when neglected, become increasingly strong; their symptoms appear as itching and loss of taste in the throat.

शुष्ककर्णास्यकण्ठत्वं तत्राधोविहितोऽनिलः । ऊर्ध्वं प्रवृत्तः प्राप्यो रस्तस्मिन्कण्ठे च संसृजन् ॥ १,१४९.

Dryness of the ears, mouth, and throat occurs there, caused by downward-moving wind; when it moves upward, it reaches and accumulates in the throat.

शिरास्रोतांसि संपूर्य ततोऽङ्गान्युत्क्षिपन्ति च । क्षिपन्निवाक्षिणी क्लिष्टस्वरः पार्श्वे च पीडयन् ॥ १,१४९.

Filling the veins and channels, it then lifts the limbs; as if throwing, it causes pain in the eyes, a strained voice, and presses on the side.
