nad kyi rgyu gsum

The branch of the causes of diseases on the disbalance trunk ( rnam par gyur pa ). A traditional image from the Atlas of Tibetan medicine.

Three causes of diseases are attachment ('dod chag), anger (zhe sdang) and ignorance (gti mug).

Three nyepa (nyes pa) spring from these three emotions. Attachment manifests as rLung (rlung), anger manifests as Tripa (mkhris pa) and ignorance manifests as Badkan (bad kan).
