Five regions of the abdomen where ''gulma'' occurs are ''hrid'' (epigastric), ''nabhi'' (umbilical), ''basti'' (hypogastric) and two ''parshva'' (right and left flanks). If both flanks are further subdivided into three ''urdhva'' (upper), ''madhya'' (middle) and ''adho'' (lower), then whole abdomen is divided into 9 parts which is similar to the modern clinical method where abdomen is also divided into nine parts as shown in Table-1. Some of the organs situated in these regions as mentioned by Warner (1964) are also depicted therein and on that basis exact location of the Gulma can be traced.
