Now, we shall explain the upper limb marma points. Among them, the marma in the middle of the big toe is called "Kshipra," and an injury here can lead to instant death. The marma in the middle of the foot sole is known as "Talahṛdaya," and death can occur due to pain from this point. The marma called "Kūrcha" is located on the upper side of the foot, and injury here can lead to shaking or trembling of the foot. The "Kūrchaśira" is at the junction of the ankle and can lead to swelling and pain. The "Gulfa" is where the ankle connects to the foot, which may cause numbness or stiffness. In the space between the ankle and the thigh, the "Indrabasti" marma exists, and death may occur due to loss of blood. The marma at the knee joint is called "Jānu," and injury here can result in stiffness. The "Trayaṅgula" marma, situated above the knee, can lead to swelling or stiffness. The "Urvī" marma, located in the thigh, can cause wasting due to loss of blood. At the base of the thigh, the "Lohitākṣa" marma can lead to death from loss of blood or paralysis. The marma located between the hips is called "Viṭapa," and injury here can result in a deficiency of semen. Thus, we have described eleven marma points related to the upper limb. The marma points in the upper limbs can also be seen as interrelated. Particularly, the marma points associated with the ankle, knee, and thigh can affect the arm and wrist. For instance, an injury to the "Viṭapa" between the hips can cause corresponding disorders. Particularly, an injury to the wrist can lead to weakness, and an injury to the "Kūrpāra" can cause deformity. Thus, we have described these forty-four marma points.
