WHAT IS KAALA? – VIMAANA STHAANA 8/125

COMMENTRY BY CHAKRAPAANI –

KAALA is the time of the year as well the stage of the patient. After the examination of the DESHA now KAALA or time is described. The year is divided into two parts based on the movement of earth, three parts based on hot and cold, six parts based on the seasons, 12 parts according to the months, 24 parts by PAKSHA (1 PAKSHA is 15 days), many types by PRAHARA (4 PRAHARA in one day). 

TATATA KAARYAMA ITI means different types of function happen according to different parts like AYAN AADI. 

SAADHAARANA means the season which is not even hot not even cold.

PRAAVRISHAMA season is divided into two parts – first PRAAVRITA then VARSHAA. First PRAAVRITA shows the months of AASHAADHA and SHRAAVANA. Other seasons should be known consecutively after the VARSHAA, considering that every season has two months. This division of the seasons is bot necessarily according to the RASAS but it is explained here to show the rleavanace of the SANSHODHANA processes in every season. As it is also said in SIDHI STHAANA 3 - PRAAVRITA is known as SHUKRANABHAU (?), and it is SHARDURJASAHAU (?), BASANATA is for TAPASYAA and for SHODHANA. But SHISHIRA is not there in this counting of seasons. It is said that on the right side of the GANGAA river there occurs a lot of rain, so there is the sequence of PRAAVRITAADI, and on the other side of the river there occurs a lot of cold, so there occurs the sequence of HEMANTA AND SHISHIRA, KASHYAPA has also said like this by this verse – YATA BHUYO VARSHATI ---. So that means this is not explained according to the motive for SANSHODHANA, because these divisions have been said according to the place and not according to the SANDSHODHANA. So the division said by KASHYAPA according to the PRAAVRITA AADI is not correct so far. 

AVIKALAPASHCHA SHARIRA AUSHADHAANAAM ITI means there is no types of body based on characters produced artificially like hotness, and also there is no options for medicine like less or more.
