Rogārta (रोगार्त) refers to “suffering from a disease”, according to the Bhūśalyasūtrapātananimittavidhi section of Jagaddarpaṇa’s Ācāryakriyāsamuccaya, a text within Tantric Buddhism dealing with construction manual for monasteries etc.—Accordingly, “[...] If a frog croaks, there is danger of water in the [donor’s?] house. If smoke [is seen], there is distraction of mind. If a person suffering from a disease (rogārta-aṅga), a person of a lower [class], a person suffering from leprosy, a deranged person, and a woman are seen, then it causes disease”.
