Oh lord! You have already stated earlier that (in [[Nidana Sthana]]) “''jwara'' afflicts the body, senses and the mind, is the first disease to be manifested, and is the principal and the most powerful disease.” This enemy of human beings is invariably associated with the birth and death of creatures. Therefore, kindly elucidate the following points for the benefit of the humanity –

The three physical ''doshas'' and the two ''manasika doshas'' are the natural factors responsible for ''jwara'' (''prakriti'') as ''jwara'' cannot originate in a person having the balance of these three ''dosha'' (''nirdosha'' – in the state of homeostasis).
