Counting the vital points and other features

The body has 107 vital points (marma), nine openings (two eyes, two nostrils, two ears, the mouth, the anus and the genital), eighty lakh hair pores and the three doshas, vāta, pitta and kapha, called pillars (sthūṇa). Footnotes define marma as a place where an injury usually kills ('that which kills is marma') and an opening as a passage by which wastes and other matter go in and out.
