Source: archive.org: Vagbhata’s Ashtanga Hridaya Samhita (first 5 chapters)Vāyusambhava (वायुसम्भव) refers to “that which is caused by wind” (e.g., diseases), as mentioned in verse 4.32 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “[...] those which (are) caused by demons, poison, wind [viz., vāyusambhava], fire, ruptures, fractures etc. and (include) passion, anger, fear etc. are the (so-called) accidental diseases [viz., āgantu-gada]”.
Āyurveda (आयुर्वेद, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of Āyurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
