क्षयस्तमो ज्वरः पाप्मा मृत्युश्चोक्ता यमात्मकाः| पञ्चत्वप्रत्ययान्नॄणां क्लिश्यतां स्वेन कर्मणा ||१३||

Kshaya (emaciation), tama (feeling of entering into darkness), jwara, papma (manifestations of the sinful acts) and mrityu (death) are all the various presentations of Yamaraja (lord of deaths). These are the causes of death (panchatva) in individuals suffering from various grievances, due to their own deeds and hence have been accepted as equivalent to Yama (lord of death). In this way the prakriti (basic nature) of jwara has been described.
