Vedic Reference
English
Rāja-yakṣma, ‘royal sickness, is mentioned in the Rigveda^1
and several times later on.^2 Zimmer^3 identifies it with con-
sumption: this identification seems certain, being supported by
the later view of the disease.^4 Bloomfield^5 suggests ‘king's
evil, or syphilis, as the sense, but this is not probable.

who takes Rājayakṣma as denoting the
worst of diseases, not the disease cured
by the king. Cf. Rājāśva.
