Vedantic Theme: Cause-effect discipline (karma-like causality) applied to the body; right conduct maintains functional order.

FAQs

This verse treats blocked perspiration as a key physiological obstruction that traps inner factors and leads to abdominal illness, showing the text’s concern with subtle channels and bodily regulation.

It describes a sequence: obstruction of sweating → inner factors become faint and remain confined → the abdomen becomes filled/swollen → abdominal disease arises.

Maintain healthy elimination and circulation (including sweating) through balanced diet, activity, and avoiding extremes—so internal congestion does not build into chronic abdominal disorders.
