Source: archive.org: Vagbhata’s Ashtanga Hridaya Samhita (first 5 chapters)Satuṣāra (सतुषार) refers to “accompanied with water-drops”, mentioned in verse 3.43 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “[...] These get irritated when the sky is covered with clouds banging down because of their water, (and that) by wind accompanied with drizzle [viz., satuṣāra] and suddenly (turned) cold, ground vapour, water liable to sour digestion and polluted”.
Note: Satuṣāra has been rendered by chu-thigs bcas-pa, which literally means (“accompanied with water-drops”) and precisely agrees with the explanation offered by the commentators (sajalakaṇa, Aruṇadatta & Candranandana; sajalabindu, Indu). The word tuṣāra as such denotes anything from frost to cold, snow, fog, dew, and drizzle (cf. MW p. 452).
