Relation between different concepts of Satmya
   
The role of Satmya in an individual begins right from the formation of embryo, its development, the adaptations developed in an individual by birth as well as the acquired adaptations in terms of diet and life style influenced by the geographical area, seasons and habitual use of some substances and regimens/practices. These determine the healthy as well as diseased states of an individual. One should follow the rules of Satmya to preserve and maintain his health. And if one get diseased the physician should consider Satmya as an important contributing factor while examining an patient, diagnosing and treating the disease. And the factor Satmya influences the ability of a couple to procreate a healthy progeny and the effect of Satmya reflects in the next generation also.
