1. Earth
2. Water,
3. Fire,
4 Air,
5. Ether
These eternal elements manifest in the Human Body as three basic prindples or subtle energies or humors (Thridosha in Sanskrit). The word Dosha literally means that which maintains and controls the body. They are Vatha, Pitha and Kapha. The Pancha Maha Bhoothas and Thridoshas are not prevalent to the naked eye. But they should be conceived on comprehensive terms in which all physical structures and physiological functions of the body are induded. The Air and Ether elements combined to form the Vatha prindple. The fire element constitutes Pitha prindple. Earth and Water elements combine to form Kapha prindple. These three basic prindples govern all biological. physiological and physlo-pathological functions of the body, mind and consdousness. They act as basic constituents and protective barriers for the body In its normal physiological conditions.
