==== Properties and affects ====

The ten gunas of visha with their impact on the doshas and the body are dealt in this section. Some gunas can be interpreted as follows: Sookshma guna has a property of vivarana i.e.; to spread which makes the rakta to spread all over and make the visha reach all over the body. Kapha and visha have the same origin from jala (water) and also the avyakta rasata leads to intrude into the anna rasa and spreads fast. Vyavayi vuna is responsible for the quick spreading of visha as like a drop of oil spreads on water surface. Taikshnya is responsible for marmaghna ~~(..)~~ effect. Basically marma is saumya in nature. The ~~Vishada~~ guna of visha makes it unsticky and there by not allowing getting it adhered at single place. The ~~Teekshna~~ guna of visha destroys it and causes the marmaghna effect. It is very difficult to keep a laghu dravya stagnant. It keeps on changing its form or function. So it becomes very difficult to treat visha that is laghu and constantly changing its site of action in the body. Sushruta has also attributed the effect of poisons ~~corrosponding~~ to its guna. The illustration is precise and understandable. (Su. K. 2/19-21)

The ten ''gunas'' of ''visha'' with their impact on the ''doshas'' and the body are dealt in this section. Some ''gunas'' can be interpreted as follows: ''Sookshma guna'' has a property of ''vivarana'' i.e.; to spread which makes the ''rakta'' to spread all over and make the ''visha'' reach all over the body. ''Kapha'' and ''visha'' have the same origin from ''jala'' (water) and also the ''avyakta rasata'' leads to intrude into the ''anna rasa'' and spreads fast. ''Vyavayi vuna'' is responsible for the quick spreading of ''visha'' as like a drop of oil spreads on water surface. ''Taikshnya'' is responsible for ''marmaghna'' effect. Basically ''marma'' is ''saumya'' in nature. The ''vishada guna'' of ''visha'' makes it unsticky and there by not allowing getting it adhered at single place. The ''teekshna guna'' of ''visha'' destroys it and causes the ''marmaghna'' effect. It is very difficult to keep a ''laghu dravya'' stagnant. It keeps on changing its form or function. So it becomes very difficult to treat ''visha'' that is ''laghu'' and constantly changing its site of action in the body. Sushruta has also attributed the effect of poisons corresponding to its ''guna''. The illustration is precise and understandable. (Su. K. 2/19-21)
