What the text says
Each statement reports the source, with its chapter, page and verse. Traditional descriptions are not presented as proven medical facts.
Definition2
Ripening the doshas by giving medicines that remove the unripe state of the disease is called ripening by means (upāyapāka); the verse speaks of good medicines that destroy āma.
The doshas ripening by themselves within their own period, without medicine, is called ripening by time (kālapāka), and this is said to be seen in animals, birds and the destitute.
Classification1
Just as the fruits of trees ripen by themselves and are also ripened by intelligent people through means, aggravated doshas are said to ripen in two ways: through means (treatment) and through the course of time.
