Owing to its incorporeal nature and instability [[vata]] is ''anasadhya'' (inaccessible) also. The inaccessibility is characterized in regard to its functional and physical attributes but more relevant regarding the therapeutic aspect. Above explained cardinal features make [[vata]] achintya veerya (inconceivable prowess) and [[dosha]]nam neta (propeller of all functional elements in the body).[Cha. Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 1/8]

In [[Vatakalakaliya Adhyaya]], questions have been raised about exciting and alleviating factors regarding qualities of [[vata]]. ''Ruksha''(dry), ''laghu''(light), ''sheeta''(cool), ''daruna'' (dreadful), ''khara'' (rough) and ''vishada'' (clean) have been explained as qualities of [[vata]]. Repeated use of substances with these qualities and actions of such similar qualities causes aggravation and excitation of [[vata]] and is alleviated by use of substances possessing contrary qualities. This brings out the phenomenon of two mutually interrelated and inseparable of ''sharira vayu'' viz.

#that, the sharira [[vayu]] is a biophysical force and  
 
#that it is closely associated with material substances which form part of the structure of the body for example, functions of nervous system. It is a chemical reaction sequence which occurs during the course of life. This chemical reaction –sequence, can be accelerated (excited) or inhibited by substances with similar properties (''dravya samanya''), qualities (''guna samanya'') and actions (''karma samanya'') and inhibited by substances with opposite properties. In other words, it may be concluded that the bio – physical force – the ''sharira vayu'' – is closely linked with some material structural factors. These can be influenced by diet and medicine on the basis of similar increase and opposite decrease.
