This chapter describes criteria for classification and enumeration of diseases, ''agni'' and patients. Because of variable symptoms and pathogenesis, the diseases are innumerable and they are rearranged in groups in this chapter. The purpose of grouping is to find common modalities for treatment and diagnosis and it is essential to know the disease pathology at micro level. The source components of all the physical and mental disorders are ''tridosha'' (three morbid factors). There are three basic causes, viz. injudicious use of senses, intellectual errors and ignoring the bio clock. All diseases have common origin and pathway up to some level which serves as criteria for grouping of ailments. The common criteria for the enumeration of diseases include prognosis, severity, location, nature of causative factors and site of origin. Classification of ''agni'' on the basis of strength is described in this chapter. ''Prakriti'' as the parameter for the stratifying and clustering various types of patients and concept of psychosomatic diseases is highlighted in this chapter. Primary and secondary diseases on the basis of priority of vitiation of ''doshas'' are explained for successful management of the disease.
