Tarpaka Kapha Disorders

A tarpaka kapha disorder can create various physical disorders such as stroke paralysis, Parkinson's disease, or brain tumors. Concussion, compression, or contusion may affect tarpaka kapha and change the entire personality. A blow on the head may traumatize tarpaka kapha, causing the person to lose memory.

Psychological disturbance of tarpaka kapha manifests as crystallized thoughts, rigidity, confusion, and inability to observe clearly. Grief and sadness get stuck in the deep matrix of tarpaka kapha, carried as wounds in the subconscious mind. Inferior quality tarpaka kapha reduces sensitivity and clouds perception through past images and memories.
