In Hinduism

Ayurveda (science of life)

Veterinary Medicine (The study and treatment of Animals)

Rogī (रोगी) refers to “sick (and old) elephants”, according to the 15th century Mātaṅgalīlā composed by Nīlakaṇṭha in 263 Sanskrit verses, dealing with elephantology in ancient India, focusing on the science of management and treatment of elephants.—[Cf. chapter 5, “on marks of the stages of life”]: “21. He lies (sleeps?) against a tree, not in water; his dung is mixed with froth, he urinates scantily, and eats (only) soft food; his tusks fall off, his fore-limbs are permanently sickly (sthira-gātra-rogī); such is the elephant in the stage that follows the century (the eleventh)”.

Unclassified Ayurveda definitions

Rogin (रोगिन्) or Rogī refers to a “patient” and represents one of the four pādas or factors to make a treatment perfect.—The Ayurvedic system says that the body (śarīra) is also pañcabhautika and the medicines i.e. plants and animals are also pañcabhautika. So the pañcabhautika-śarīra can be treated with pañcabhautika drug. [...] The four pādas or factors to make a treatment perfect are: 1. Bhiṣak: Vaidya-doctor 2. Dravya: drugs 3. Paricāraka: bystander/helper and 4. Rogī: Patient.—If these four pādas perfectly merge the treatment will be a success.

Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Rogin (रोगिन्) refers to a “patient”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.31 (“Description of Śiva’s magic”).—Accordingly, as Śiva (in disguise of a Brahmin) said to the Lord of Mountains: “[...] For the marriage of Pārvatī, He is not at all a deserving person. On hearing of this, the general public will smile in derision. O lord of mountains, see for yourself. He has not a single kinsman. You are the storehouse of great gems and jewels. He has no assets at all. O lord of mountains, you shall consult your kinsmen, sons, wife and wise counsellors, except Pārvatī. O lord of mountains, the medicine does not appeal at all to the patient (rogin). Wrong diet that brings about great defects always appeals to him”.

In Jainism

General definition (in Jainism)

Rogī (रोगी) refers to “diseased”; as opposed to Arogī—“diseaseless” which refers to one of the 46 qualities of the soul to be meditated on in the “Practice of Meditation on Liberated Souls (Siddhas)”, according to Jain texts like Ācārāṅga (5.6.123-140), Ṣaṭkhaṇḍāgama (13.5.4.31) and Samayasāra (1.49).—The pure soul can be recognised by meditation on its true nature, represented by the liberated souls of the Siddhas. [...] The qualities of the soul to be meditated on as truly mine are: [e.g., My soul is disease-less (a-rogī)] [...] The meditation on such extended fourty-five qualities of the pure soul presents the niśacaya-naya, which is aligned with Kundakunda’s approach.
