This is defined like this,

All the Dosha, Agni & Dhathus should function in a balanced state. At the same time Indriya, Atma & Manas should be in "PRASANNAVASTHA". This is knows as a HAPPY MOOD.

Such a person can only be called as "SWASTHA", COMPLETE HEALTH.

Thus ayurveda considers both physical as well as mental fitness together.

• Prajnaparadha - Violation or negligence of the "Swathajeevana".
• Parinama - Effect of climate, seasons etc.

Type of diseases:

• Adhyatmika - Diseases of the mind.
• Adi-bhautika - Diseases of the body.
• Adi-Daivika – Diseases which occur during heavy rains & floods, earth quakes, drought etc.

The manifestation of the disease is explained through "Kriyakala". It is of six types:

• Sanchaya - There will be very mild vitiation of diseases in their chief site.
• Prakopa - Future aggravation of doshas in their own sites.

In the above two steps disease many disappear automoticaly without any treatment when the root cause is cut off.

• Prasara - Spreading to a large area, doshas vitiate further, and also spreads to other dosha sthana.
• Sthana samshraysa - The diverted doshas, lodges in a particular srota thus causing srotodusti this is also termed as "KHAVAIGUNYA".
• Vyakta - This is the stage of full manifestation of the disease with all the symptoms clearly manifesting. Here diagnosis of the diseases is done. Curability, incurablity can also be claimed.
• Bheda - in this stage sub classification of diseases is done, here dhatu kshaya starts.

Then diseases spreads to other organs leading to many complaints. In this stage most of the diseases become incurable & many a time the patient succumbs to death.
