This is a whole-person description of severe mental illness, not a moral insult. It reads more like a medical description than a sermon. Five types are named: vata, pitta, kapha, sannipata, and agantu (external/trauma-like). Weak sattva plus rajas-tamas plus unwholesome diet and excess passion, anger, fear or grief are listed as risk.
