षड्धातुजस्तु पुरुषो रोगाः षड्धातुजास्तथा। राशिः षड्धातुजो ह्येष साङ्ख्यैराद्यैः प्रकीर्तितः ॥१५॥

Human is the result of shad-dhatu (six elements, including panchamahabuta or the five elements, and atman). Diseases also arise from those six elements. This is the principle of Samkhya philosophy. This type of constitution is also referred to as Rashi Purusha.
